his scheme within three weeks. The
order itself, which, under the rules,
goes over to next week, does not make
exactly clear Mr.. Lanes plan. If he has
formulated one to his own satisfaction.
When seen Mr.. Lane said: 1T is my
idea that the test should be to make
every person brought into station
house on the charge of intoxication
walk chalk line or spells words. If he
is unable to walk the required line or
spell the words correctly then that
should be sufficient reason for locking
him up on the charge of drunkenness.
At present 1t is very easy matter for
an officer to lock o man up If he has a
grudge against him, and l don't believe
it Is right for an officer to have the
power to lock man up who Is able
to take care of himself, although he has

The New York Central Is to have 500

same style as the Delaware, Susquehanna
and Schuylkill cars and win be equipped
with air brakes.
The Lehigh Valley will have more en-

to such an extent that the company Is
taxed to carry it. The through business
Is three times as great as at this time

Shipments of Pocahontas coal over the
Norfolk and Western railroad for the
week ended March IL amounted to S55i7
tons, an increase over the same week last
year of 2S,7G5 tons; for the year to date
shipments aggregated SlS9l1 tons, an in
crease over the corresponding period last
year of lSl,567 tons.
The tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad
at Morea are to be changed. as the road
crosses Il vein of coal that is being
stripped by the Dodson Coal company and
travel is now made dangerous. The re-
gon is so honeycombed with breaches
caused by the surface dropping into mine
workings that the new line of railroad
will be built on the present bed of Mill
Creek This will be the second change of
route of this line made necessary by the
mining operations in this locality.
The Philadelphia Inquirer thinks II Is
becoming apparent that the Reading
holds the winning hand in this anthracite
coal fight Its large local market, its ex-
tensive plant and its admirable geograph-
ical location all combine to render 1t the
master of the trade, If its officers will
only use the weapons nature has given
them. All the actions of the receivers
show that they are determined on this
point and they will listen to nothing that
does not contain the condition precedent
that Reading shall have u per cent. of the
output. 1t only requires nerve to stand
out against the supplications of the New
York companies, who are calling loudly
for harmony, TO win the day" Is this a
case of whistling to keep the courage up?

LOBBYISTS ARE BARRED.
A Woman ordered from the, Floor of the
Lincoln House.

Lincoln, Neb., March 24.-Upon the
opening of the house Saturday Speaker
Richards announced that in view of
the disturbance caused by out
siders being admitted to the floor
of the house, he would hereafter
enforce the ironclad rule to admit no
one except senators. Later a scene was
created by the speaker stopping pro-
ceedings to direct the sergeant-at-arms
to remove a woman who had taken a
seat and who was busily engaged in
talking to Benedict, of Douglas county.
1t was Mrs. Richardson, of Omaha,
a lawyer, and though she at first, when
approached by the sergeant-at-arms
persisted in remaining. she finally
withdrew. The bold and persistent
work of lobbyists on the floor of the
house toward toe close OF the fession
has almost reached the point of a scam

SenOr Muruaga Declares Reporters
Abused His Confidence.

Washington. March 24.-SackVille-
West was the victim of an anonymous
letter writer. Lorin A. Thurston Is the
victim Of the American spirit of per-
nicious political activity. Senior Mu-
ruaga is victim of the American
newspapers. When the Allianca Incl
dent began to attract attention half
the correspondents in town rushed for
the Spanish legation. Senior Muruaga
received them with open arms ana
mouth, obviously delighted with the
opportunity to place his side of the
story before the public,
He talked freely and vigorously.
Now the senor claims the newspaper
men abused his confidence and repeat
ed all his private conversation and
aside remarks concerning the secretary
of state. However this may be, the
fact remains that the loquacious Spani-
ard did say all the things attributed to
him whether or not he intended them
for publication, and that he must stand
the odium thereof and in due time take
up his little gripsack and walk.

RECALLS AN OLD CRIME.
Governor Matthews of Indiana Pardons
Joseph Wade, II Murderer.

Indianapolis, March 24.-The pardon
OF Joseph Wade from the northern
prison by Governor Matthews recalls
a crime that created intense excitement
in this county fifteen years ago. Wade
was a saloon-keeper and liked with a
Mrs. Brown while her husband was
serving term in the penitentiary.
Soon after Browns return home his
body was found at a railroad crossing
with the head crushed, and nearby
was found a buggy despatched with
blood. All the Indications pointed to
murder and Wade and Mrs. Brown
were arrested for the crime and both
convicted and given life sentences, one
of the children testifying that Mrs.
Brown had killed their father Wade
is in poor health and was pardoned on
that account,

GIRL HORRIBLY TREATED.
Her Parents Are Arrested and There Is
Talk of Lynehing Them.

Hepworth, Ont, March 24.-The peo-
Pile of this village are greatly incensed
by the cruelty with which Mary, the
l3-year-old child of Mr.. and Mrs. T. w.
Henderson, has been treated by her
parents. Their usual mode of punish
ing the girl is by stripping her, tying
her hands together by the wrists and
suspending her from beam and then
beating her either with a blacksnake
whip or a leather strap with a buckle
at the end.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson were arrest
ed and the little girl was submitted to a
medical examination. Her flesh was
horribly cut and bruised and the doc
tors say they never saw such evidence
of brutal cruelty. There is talk of
lynching the heartless parents.

ADULTERATION OF WHISKY.
A Professors Experiments with Seventy.
s-' four Samples.

New Haven, Conn. March 24.-Pro-
fessor McCook, of Trinity college, in a
lecture here on the liquor problem, gave
results Of tests at the Trinity labora-
tory of seventy-four samples of whis-
key. The tests showed much adultera-
ton and that the high-class barroOms
often sold as poor whiskey as the lower
ones. The adulterations were so skill
full that two expert testers could not
detect the best whisky from the bad.
Professor McCook estimated the pro-
fits of whiskey sold by the glass at $3.50
a gallon. He favored control of the
traffic by the state as a stock company.
