Chicago, Sept. 1S.-The transconti-
mental lines are still engaged in their
free-for-all talk. the outcome of which,
it is hoped by some of the lines, Will
result in the formation of the Trans
continental Passenger association.
The meeting today resulted. as all
the other sessions have resulted up tic
date-in nothing.
The main difficulty in the way OF
forming the association. with the cues
ton of differentials again ignored, Is
that the bulk of California business is
second-class traffic, which can be di-
verified by means of a small differen-
tial. The f1rst-class passenger business
amounts to very little, compared with
the second-class, and the roads cannot
afford to ignore the latter. At present
there seems to be no chance whatever
that the lines will succeed in forming
the association.

The Hooking valley Case.

Columbus, O., Sept. 1S.-Arguments
in the Hooking Valley $S,000,00O case
continued all day in the common pleas
court on the demurrer to the petition
of the trust company. Judge Steven
son Burke finished his arguments sus-
tanning the demurrer. The principal
point which he made was that the
Hooking Valley Railroad company was
the only party, which could sue, and
that it had already exhausted its right
of action.
Judge Burke created a sensation by
making an attack upon the judges of
the supreme court of New York, whom
he charged with having made mis-
statements in an opinion delivered in
the case in the courts of that state.
Judge Crawford, of New York, opened
the argument for the trust company,
and had not concluded when the court
adjourned.

have his wound looked after. On

did what he could for Prescott. Engi-
neer Prescott told me he was tagged
by a red lantern, and it being so near
the station, and there being a curve just
ahead of him, he supposed there was
a train at the station and the track
was not clear, and that this was one of
their flagmen. But when he stopped
and the bandits were getting upon his
engine. and he realized their business,
he called to them to keep off, Without
more ado they opened fire on him. Soon
after this the guards opened fire and

nearly 200 books and articles have been
published by the professors and stu
dents on various subjects. The COM
mittee state that they cannot for mo-
ment think of recommending the dis
missal of teacher even if some of his
opinions should in some quarters be re-
garded as visionary. They say they
would feel themselves unworthy of the
positions they hold if they did not be-
1ieve in progress in all departments of
knowledge. They believe the great uni
versity of Wisconsin should ever
encourage that continual and fearless
sitting and winnowing ways by which
alone truth can be found.
In closing the report the committee
says: 1--WE regret that our appoint
ment for such an investigation should
have been considered necessary, but
will now state that we entered on it
with a sole desire to ascertain the truth
in regard to the charges preferred. We
are pleased to say that the result is a
complete vindication of DR.. Ely and

the two farmer bandits arrested for
their part in the attempted Santa Fe
robbery. were only captured after a
stubborn fight. Both had made their
way directly to their homes. situated
sixteen miles southeast from here in
la lonely part of the country. Abrams,
who is the man that received the full
load of buckshot in the face, was COM
lpelled to walk the entire distance it be-
ing his horse that was killed by the
detectives. Arrived at home, Abrams
was secreted behind a dresser. He had
practically run the whole distance and
when Sheriff Sailing and his posse, with
the railroad detectives, came up to the
house. he was faint. However, when
he knew that escape was out of the
question he made a bold attempt to
stand off his captors with revolver.
The officers had the drop on him and
he finally gave in.
After he was handcuffed the search
for the other prisoners was resumed.
On the farm of Mrs. D. Tull, nearby,
the officers found Overfield, who had
crawled under a bed. The house was
first surrounded and a delegation sent
in to make a search. Mrs. Tull and
her two daughters stoutly denied that
lOverfield was in the house. Overfield
