DECIDES AGAINST HEWITT.

Judge Cornish Refuses to Rein
state U. p. EmpIOye.
OMAHA, March 11.-W. D. Cornish,
special master in chancery of the Union
Pacific, has decided that Frank Hewitt,
the Laramie fireman, is not entitled to
reinstatement in the employ of the
Union Pacific. The case has been
watched with a great deal of interest
by every employe of the Union Pacific,
and the decision has been anXiously
awaited.
Hewitt was fireman on the Union Pa
cific fast mail running between Lara
ME and Rawlins. On June %, 1884,
Hewitt reported to the company's ply
stefan at Laramie that he was ill, and
asked for a lay-off. This was granted
him. On July l the American Railway
union called out its members in Lara
ME, and Hewitt was called to go to
work, but refused to do so, claiming
his illness prevented him from so doing.
The master says in his report that
Hewitt took active part in the meeting
Of strikers and made several speeches,
stating that the men should stay out.
The.master also says that the cause of
his discharge was his participating in
the strike. His attorneys filed an ex-
ception to the decision, but the master
oyerruled it

GREAT NORTHERN EXTENDS
Canadian Pacific's Territory
to Be Invaded--Mr. Car
penter's Funeral.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, March 11.-An-
swer of the Chicago, Milwaukee q 81.
Paul and Northwestern railroad OIL
ficials to the charges made by AS
semblyman Hall regarding the sworn
returns of earnings of the railroads
in Wisconsin, upon which are based
the payment of taxes by the roads,
together with statement OF 1actS
concerning the whole matter from the
railroad standpoint, have been pre-
pared and will at once be placed IN
the hands of the investigating COM
mittee of the legislature. The rail-
roads invite the fullest investigation
of their dealings with the state and
ask that the committee go over their
books fully. The railroads claim that
they have nothing to conceal, and ask
that the entire system of reporting
earnings be carefully gone over.
In it's statement the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul company declares
that Mr.. Hall charges in effect that
the actual earnings of the railroad
companies in question were more than
they were reported from 1888 to 1892,
that this shortage and discrepancy
are wholly unaccounted for, and that
there is strong ground for the belief
that a portion of this sum was earned
in Wisconsin, the taxes on which
should have been paid but were not.
If the reports of the companies TO the
state of Wisconsin are correct, and
there has not yet been a single fact
adduced to show that they were not,
so says the answer the most search
ing examination is invited and will
demonstrate the absolute correctness
of the reports of gross earnings in tha
various states in taxes which are thus
paid.
The answer states that the reports
made on the mileage basis have not
the slightest reference to or bearing
upon taxation. Mr.. Hall shows a dis
crepancy, it is claimed, by using this
form of report as made to the state
of Illinois. He has also erred. it is
alleged, in making his comparisons
by taking the figures for the fiscal
year ending June 80 and comparing
them with the calendar year.

breakfast with the sheriff, who told
him to take his own and the sheriff s
satchels and meet him at the depot at
train time, which he agreed to do.
In the meantime he kept drinking,
and finally fell in with an old friend,
who disliked the sheriff and proposed
that he skip. He agreed, and his
friend got a team and drove to another
station, where he took the train and
! went East, and proceeded on his usual
visits to his customers. He opened
the sheriff's satchel, which was I'M
locked. and took out two pairs of
handouts and threw them into a river.
After several weeks he and mis- wife
ATTENDED the worlds fair,an one even
ing attended the Wild West show As
he looked around he saw the sheriff sit
ting only two feet away. He and his
wife at once left the show and the city.
Several months elapsed, and one day
at Fort Dodge, To-, the sheriff met him
on the street, arrested him and took
him back for trial. He was tried for
stealing the team and was acquitted of
the charge. The sheriff then had him
arrested for breaking and entering the
satchel and stealing the handouts
L
sale house he represented backed him
up, but he was finally convicted and
sent to Fort Madison prison for three
years. About six months ago he was
transferred to the Anamosa peniten-
tiary, and was in poor health. He is
now a night nurse in the hospital and
says he has been entirely cured of the
drink habit and shall never touch it
again.
{ Gov. Jackson has promised to pardon
him as soon as he is convinced that
he has been cured of the drink habit.
He is finely educated and has all the
bearings of thorough gentleman, and
bears close resemblance in looks to his
noted relatives, none of whom has de-
serted him or been ashamed to rec
ognize him. He will soon be pardoned
and will at once resume his old posi-
ton on the road.

oLD-TIME CROOKS.
ST. Louis Police Make Important
Arrests.


ST. LOUIS, March u.-James
Wesley and James Murray, who were
arrested last week on the suspicion of
being safe blowers are two of the
most daring crooks of the day. The
initials u. W." tattooed on the left
arm of Wesley led to his Identified ton

alias McMorrisonS alias Joseph Muir
ray. They are said to be guilty Of
robberies committed in nearly every
big city in the country. Both men
were, before they came to st. Louis,
members of a gang of safe blowers;
whose headquarters were located in
San Francisco, which city they left
several years ago, according to let
ter from the chief of police of that
city. They admitted their identities
when Chief of Detectives Desmond re-
vealed that he knew what he was talk
ing about. Chief Desmond believes

NEW SLANG.
Expressive Words that Have Crep

Expressive Words that Have Crept
Into the Language.
Chicago Record.
A slang dictionary needs, revising
every week.
Each day, it would seem, some new
and expressive word or phrase is
either born or adopted into new
meaning.
The other evening a police captain
was telling of a robbery case that
had come under his observation.
Said he: 1.-THE fellow had no bust
ness to go into the place. AS soon
as he went in they spotted him fer
a live lobster
For what?"
For live lobster. Haven't you
heard that before?"
What does it mean?'
"a live lobster is a man with
money. That's what he is called by
the people who are after his money.
If they size him up as having no
money they call him dead lobster"
Another slang phrase occasionally
heard in the streets, and probably
destined to a career of usefulness,
is ION the ice"
A man who asks a favor of anoth-
er and is refused says he is ION the
! ice.''
1t is equivalent to saying that he
"got the marble heart"
Any one who is kept in a chilly con-
dition by hard luck is supposed to
remain ION the ice"
In the office buildings there is a
new compound word which is most
| expressive.
During the cold snap hundreds of
pedestrians passed through the warm
corridor of the long Monadnock
| building every day.
This route was not only the "short
cut" between Jackson and Van Blu
rem streets, but it permitted people
! to escape the freezing winds which
swept along the base of every sky
scraping building.
| The pedestrian who comes in at
one end of the building and goes out
| at the other with no purpose in view
except to keep warm is called by the
attaches of the bnilding walker
through"
1.-THE building is crowded today"
remarked some one to an elevator
man.
Yes" he replied, "but most of
them are 'walkers-through
Such a word is actually useful in
designating certain class of busy
| people.

AN IOWA CONVICT
Whose Love Love for Liquor
Landed HIM Behind Prison Bars.

Whose Love Love for Liquor
Landed HIM Behind Prison Bars.
Chicago Herald.
Among the convicts in the Ana
mosa Qowa) penitentiary is one who
is connected with one of the most
prominent families in the United
States. The convict's story is COR
roborated by Warden Madden. The
prisoner is a nephew of one Of the
greatest generals on the Union side
that fought during the rebellion, and
who is now deceased, and whose
very image this convict bears in his
face. He is also a nephew of one of
the most prominent Republican
United States senators now in that
body, and who has frequently been
mentioned in connection with the.
presidency, and who is one of the
greatest financiers in this country.
The convict's brother-in-law is one
of the leading officers in the United
States army
This convict is man perhaps
sixty years of age, and for nearly
twenty-five years represented one of
the largest wholesale glassware and,
crockery houses in New York city
on the road as a commercial travelai
er, and during all these years never
failed to account for every cent pass
ing through his hands, and has the
confidence of the firm to such an exc
tent that a position similar to the
one he held is awaiting his release
from the prison. He sold goods to,
merchants in Anamosa, Des Moines.
Burlington, Dubuque, Marshall
town and other cities for fourteen
years. He became a hard drinker,
consuming three pints of whisky
daily, and for two years was never
out of his wife's presence for two
hours at any one time, as she was
endeavoring to reform him, and dds
reduce him to one pint a day. His.
crime was a meager one.
He hired a livery team to drive from
West Point. To-, distance of about
ten or fifteen miles. When he arrived
at the latter place he telegraphed the
owner of the team that he had hired
man to return the team, but the
horses were never found. He went on
about his business, expecting the team
had been returned, until he was sud
denly arrested for stealing the team.
He had been intimately acquainted
with the sheriff who arrested him for
years, and the latter refused to hand
cuff him, but allowed him to come and
go as he pleased. He and the sheriff
slept in the same bed at the hotel, and
the next morning after his arrest he
got up early, leaving the sheriff asleep,
and went down to saloon, where he
proceeded to get pretty well loaded
up.
He went back to the hotel ana took

THE PLANT OF A CHILD.

My little baby brother ~t
Soon two years old will be,
l would not like another
AS mischievous as he.
1t does not seem to matter
Where l try to play,
He comes, pitter-patter,
And takes my things away.
Should l with blocks be making
A church both high and grand,
Soon it's walls are shaking
Beneath his helping hand.
Or, if / am reading
A story in my book,
His little voice comes pleading
That he may have look.
Oh, he is such a worry,

I wish that he would hurry
And be a big boy, too.

the bartender was eying him very
closely and suspiciously, but he kept
on.

GREAT NORTHERN EXTENSION.
The Road to Invade Canadian Pa
cific Territory.


VICTORIA, B. c., March 1.-THE
Great Northern railway is to be ex-
tended to Victoria. The proposition is
to connect the mainland of the state
of Washington with the island of Van
couver by a ferry, built to carry the
cars to make a landing a short way
out of Victoria and run into the city.
Though the scheme is an assured
thing, there is diversity of opinion as
to the route to be taken. One idea is to
run the proposed ferry from Fairhaven
to Gordon Head. passing south OF
Lumm island and north of Cypress and
Blakely islands, between Shaw and
Orcas islands, and north of San Juan.
This route is a long one, and that is
the objection against it. The other
route would be from Anacortes, to be
run between Decatur and Blakely ISL
andS to Victoria. There is still an
other route and that is to give the
islands wide berth and to enter the
straits of San Juan de F'uca by way of
Rosario straits. That route would be
in the open entirely and shorter
than the other two, but the passage
Tor ferry more rough and dangerous.
