An Agreement Reached Between the
City and the Railway I'm the Lake
Front Controversy.

The city OF Chicago and the Illinois Gen.
tral road have at last. after long contro-
versy. reached an agreement in relation 10
the occupancy by the road OF the lake front
park on the shore OF Lake Michigan. In
consideration of the surrender of certain
tracts OF land by the city to the road. the
latter has agreed 10 undertake improve
ments desired by the city. which will cost
the road In the neighborhood OF $1,000, 900.
These improvements comprise the filing in
OF a large portion OF the lake front. in
der TO make 1t suitable for the purpose OF
the city, TO alter the present park into
what Is expected 10 be the finest park OF
the city system. The company further
agrees to depress all its tracks for a dis
tance OF about one mile, putting them four
feet below the present level. Ii is to build
retaining walls on both sides OF it's tracks
construct a sea wall fully one mile in
length and TO build a station for its sub
urban service at Van Buren, street, which
shall be below the surface OF the park. In
addition TO these things, the road has
agreed TO build such viaducts as are neces-
sary for the passage of the people over its
tracks TO that portion OF the park lying be-
tween its tracks and the lake. The cost OF
the sea wall alone is estimated at $4,000,
and the other improvements $4,000 more
The land which the city is to transfer TO
the road comprises about seven acres, and,
although not at present valued at the full
amount or the improvements to be made
by the road. il Is considered by the officers
OF the road as certain to be worth in time
much more than the cost price.

HE HAD A QUEER GRIEVANCE.
Josephine Miller Files a $4,000 Sian.


Josephine Miller yesterday began suit
in the Circuit Court against George Bern
hard for slander, demanding $1,000 1t Is
alleged that Bernhardt applied very offens-
i've names to the plaintiff when she went to
work at his house. He had conceived a
very violent dislike for her. she says, be-
cause she answered the description of
woman who, according to the story of a
paid fortune teller, had stolen a canary
bird from Bernhardts wife, The descrip-
ton necessarily very general, but
Bernhardt was suspicious, and denounced
the woman in very Objectionable terms.
Mrs. Miller is an honest, Woodworking
woman. whose husband abused her in such
a way to be sent to the workhouse, and
later she oh aimed divorce from him.
She was sent for by the defendants wife
10 do some work about the house, bur the
defendant drove her away with his abuse.
He pleaded guilty before a justice of the
peace for provoke and was fined. He is

A freight ofiicia. of one OF the North
western lines. in conversation with a Jour-
nal reporter yesterday. said ne was. conf
dent the lines in the Northwest had seen
the worst of the depression. and that the
earnings or the present fiscal year, which
will end with June 30. will reach the fig
ures when the roads were in the height of
prosperity. He cited the earning exhibit re-
ported yesterday for the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy, for July, showing increase
in gross earnings OF so2.l96 over July, 1894
and said he was sure the Chicago & North
western and the Chicago. Milwaukee & St
Paul would, from this time on, show hand
some increases in earnings. The increase in,
earnings with the Northern Pacific. the last
few weeks. had been a great surprise, both
passenger and freight earnings running
ahead of last year. He thought that bus
ness this fall and winter would be carried

camp, the people came with increasing

seventh round. and Joshua's voice was
heard-louder. firmer, clearer than ever

hundreds of thousands of Israel the joyous,
power of God came down. The massive

Each man. drawing his sword, advanced

CONCLUSlON.-This section Of sacred his
tory has two-fold value. IL exhibits the
method by which God executed His pur
cient times. He tested and trained them.
holding them back by an order requiring
obedience which extended through several
days, that they might know their weak
minute enactments He brought them into
complete subjection to His will. At the
same time He intimidated their enemies
Josh. TX, 3, 2D, who thereafter felt that
they were powerless in the presence of
people who could. thus. summon unseen
forces. At the last God displayed His
power in removing obstacles. doing for
the army what they were not able to do,
but leaving them to fight and complete the
conquest. The passage is instructive for
all ages In these later times, when VIC
tories are won more by the truth, We may
see in this narrative the principles in every
campaign against the forces Of evil. Men
must believe in God, obey Him and con-
ence, conservation are the watchwords in
casting down the strongholds OF darkness.

Between the Days.

Between the days-the weary days
He drops the darkness and the dews:
Over tired eyes HIS hands ne lays,
And strength, and hope, and life renews.
Thank God for rest between the days!
Else who could bear the battles stress,
Or who withstand the tempest's shocks;
Who thread the dreary wilderness
Among the pitfalls and the rocks,
Came not the night with folded fiocks!
The white light scorches; and the plain
Stretches before us, parched with heat.
But, by and by, the fierce beams wane;
And 10! the nightfall, cool and sweet,
With dews to battle the aching feet!
For He remembereth our frame!
Ever for this / render praise.
Oh, tender Master, slow to blame
The falterer on lifes stony ways
Abide with us-between the days!

of meeting the cheap excursion rate to
New York made by the Grand Trunk. Some
ing the rate outright, but the more con-
servative element IS against any such
course. The discussion assumed quite an
animated aspect at Chicago yesterday, and
IL was with difficulty that two OF the roads
were restrained from coming out openly
with rate OF sl9 for the round trip 10
New York. Nothing definite was decided
on and the outcome is in doubt generally.
There has been no talk, however, OF putting
rates 10 point under those made by the
Grand Trunk The most that any of the
lines will do Is TO meet the rate OF SIS.

unsucce..ful Excursions.

The home-seekers' excursion of the pres
ent week was not as popular as had been
expected, and 1t is evident that the cur
rent Of passenger business this year has
been and still is eastward. One reason is
that never before have passenger rates
been so low east-bound as this season. and
thousands of people who have never
visited Eastern cities or pleasure resorts
have taken advantage OF these low rates.
The restriction which the railways have
placed on home-seekers excursions have
materially reduced the sale of tickets.
These restrictions were imposed with the
intention of excluding the general public
from the privileges of the excursions, and
this Is the effect they are having. Pas
senger agents feel that they have succeeded
in limiting the class of tickets to the
persons they are designed to favor, and
claim that the railroads profits are not
immediate but prospective. The territory
covered by these home seekers excursions
Is very extensive. including Kansas, Wyom-
ing, Utah. New Mexico. Montana. Arizona.
Manitoba, parts OF Iowa and Minnesota,
Wisconsin, North and South Dakota, Ar
kansas. Indian Territory. Oklohoma, Texas

Passenger men are much Interested in
the prospective rate war, east-bound. on
passenger business. which the Grand
Trunk has inaugurated at Chicago through
Offering an SIS round-trip rate. Chicago to
New York and return, with a sixteen days
limit The tickets are now on sale, the
excursion trains 70 run Sept. and g. They
are good for return until Sept. 20. This
Is the cheapest excursion rate ever made
between Chicago and New York. and will
be bitter pill for the other roads to
swallow. The Wabash may meet II, but
none Of the other lines have as yet de-
cided to do so. Traffic Manager Reeve
said the rate was not only made in the be-
lief that IL would be largely profitable. but
also to show to what lengths the giving
OF unauthorized excursions by other roads
would lead. This excursion would not
harm the regular business of the Grand
Trunk 10 any extent. and would be 10 a
territory where the other roads would
hesitate to meet the competition. The
