Speaking about a new invention to
milk COWS, Il farmer philosopher was
heard to say:
Heretofore many OF us gentlemen
have been constitutionally opposed
to going into the dairy business, but
Il Scotland inventor has made it pos
sible to milk cows as easy as it is to
scratch in ii little wheat on stubble.
This inventor will milk ten COWS in
ten minutes, and we are now in favor
of dairying, because we cal save nine
minutes on every Gov MIXED. This
will be enough time to drive our cat
tie three miles to water, because
we'll be blamed if We'll vote to locate
an artesian well on Bill Jimpkins'
farm, if it is only a mile and a half.
We want that well right on this
quarter, or else were agin' it !"

Advances Made by All the Atlantic
Steamship Lines Except One.

NEW YORK. Sept. s.-with the excep-
ton of the T~hingvalla line. all the conti-
mental steamship companies made impor-
tant advances to-day in the rates for out
going steerage passages. The steerage
rate are now as high as they were before
the rate war started two years ago. The
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. line announced the fol-
lowing steerage rates to Hamburg: on ex-
press steamers. So; on the regular steam
ers, go; on the Union line steamers. con-
trolled by the line. 81. The North Ger
man Lloyd line announces these rates TO
Bremen: BY express steamer So; regu-
lar steamers, $50: by the steamers of the
Roland line, 81. The Red Star line an
nounced the Storage rate 10 Antwerp to
be S25. which is s. more than IL has been.
The steamers of the Scandal line. which
were controlled by the Hamburg-Merchant
and which was withdrawn according to the
agreement made with the British COM
panies. will hereafter sail to Stettin and
will form the Baltic line. The Baltic line
was in existence three years ago.
At the White Star and the Cunard line
offices no more tickets will be sold for
less than $3.50 to Liverpool. The American
line has not yet made any advance. nor
the Anchor. State or French lines.
1t is thought that the two smaller British
companies will be allowed a differential
of $3.50. and that the American line will
make a similar rate to Southampton and
London as is made by the White Star and
Cunard lines.

ECHO FROM HOLINESS CASTLE.
The Quinlans Sue Chicago Police Au-
thOrities for S2O,OOO Damages.

CHICAGO. Sept. 16.-An echo of the re-
cent investigation by the police OF this city
for evidence against H. H. Holmes was
heard to-day, when the papers in two suits
each for $4,000 damages were filed against
Chief of Police Badenoch and Inspector
Fitzpatrick. The complainants are Patrick
Quinlan and his wife, who for nearly a
month were held by the police on suspicion
of having guilty knowledge Of the manner
IN which some of the many alleged victims
of Holmes disappeared. Quinlan and his
wife allege in their bill that in consequence
of their arrest and detention their standing
In the community has been irreparably in
jured, and they think that 1900 between
them would make things about right again.
When Chief badenocn was lnlor4Ied OF the
action of the Quinlans he evinced great sur
prise and FASTENED to say that they had
never been under actual arrest. He said
that Quinlan and his wife had remained at
the Harrison-street station of their volition
and that both had expressed a desire to as
sist the police in every way in unraveling
the mystery of the many disappearances
that had been charged to their former
friend and employer. Chief Badenoch said
he could prove that the pair had never been
under arrest by several of his detectives.
Inspector Fitzpatrick was equally surprised
but he contented himelf with thinking and
said very little.

HER LAST CAR RIDE
WITNESSES TELL ABOUT SEEING
BLANCHE LAMONT ON APRIL 3.
She Was ON a Car I'm DUR
rants Company. and He Was
Carrying Her SchOolbooks.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 16.-To-day be-
gan the ninth week of the Durrant trial.
The prosecution estimates that it will re-
quire fifteen days Of actual court session
for it's direct testimony. Miss Lanigan, a
fellow-pupil of Blanche Lamont at the
Normal School, to-day testified that on
April 3, when school was dismissed, she
left with Alice Pleasant, now Mrs. Dor
gan. they noticed Blanche in company
with a man whom she Identified as Dur
rant. Miss Lamont was smiling up at Dur
rant. who was carrying her books. They
boarded a street car going towards Mar
ket street, and she could see the pair in
animated conversation.
Mrs. Vogel, a new witness, told how she.
from her parlor window, on the afternoon
of April 3. noticed a man who walked about
forty-five minutes outside the Normal
School. Asked who the man was. she
dramatically exclaimed: There he is?"
Fearing he was a burglar, she watched
him with a pair of opera glasses When
emerge from the building. Accompanied by
Durrant. they boarded a Powell-street car.
One went inside and the other sat with
Durrant on the dummy. When Du--ant
was arrested she recognized him from his
pictures in the newspapers. The defense
was evidently much worried over Mrs.
Vcgers testimony. She was very positive

had known Durrant we'll for four years.
The day Blanche Lamont was murdered
she was sitting on a Vaiencia-street car
when she saw Durrant sitting on the
dummy with a young woman whom she
did not know. She identified Durrant with
great positiveness. Shown the clothes
worn by Blanche Lamont at the time of
her murder, she said the woman she saw
with Durrant wore garments of a similar
cut and material. TIE pair rode on the
dummy as far as Twenty-secOnd street,
where they left the car. proceeding toward
Bartlett street. Emanuel Church is on
Bartlett street. between Twenty-second
and ~Twentylthird. Mrs. Crossett's testi-
mony was not shaken by c-ross-examina-
ton.
The identity of the sweet pea girl" the
mysterious young woman who has con-
stantly attended the Durrant trial. and
who has attracted SO much attention by
her devotion to the alleged mlrderer. has
been discovered. She Is Mrs. Grace Bow
ers, the wife of an insurance clerk. Last
Wednesday she left her husband as a re-
suit of her i~nfatuat.on for Durrant. Mr..
bowers says his wife never knew Dur
rant. but that from the beginning she has
taken a great interest in the trial and be-
lieves Durrant innocent. 1t Is thought that
her mind has become affected and mat she
is not responsible for her actions.
