TOPEKA, KAN. May 23-Horsce
NJ. Dake, of Broadfield, Mo-, has
been appointed receiver Of the
populist venture, the Gulf & Inter
state Railroad company more
Familiarity known as the North and
South, Railroad, by Judge Hazen,

capacity of vice president Of the

Galveston and take charge Of the

To Complete the Road.

"Say. why don't you people get
after the Gulf Shore railroad peo-
pie and roast those who are pre-
venting the road from being
built ?" said member Of the Gulf
Shore company to a reporter for
the LIGHT yesterday.
otis a shame that so much time
and money is being wasted in the
courts about this road, and that
nothing at all is being done in the
meantime to build the road. There
are about nineteen of us in favor of
compromising the whole matter
and begin work In completing
the road, and about two or three
are holding back. 1 hope we will
soon get them all together and
work harmoniously with only one
end in view, and that is to build
the road to Velasco."

DEBS WILL DO TIME.
All Other Gases Against Him Will
be Quashed.

All Other Cases Against Him Will
be Quashed.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-lt is not
improbable in view Of the decision
OF the supreme court, that Eugene
V. Debs and the other officers of
the A. r. T., now under Indictment
for violation OF the antitrust and
the mail obstruction acts, will not
re called upon to stand trial.
Under the decision Debs will serve
his sentence Of six months in jail
and 1t is thought the government t
will consider this a sufficiently
severe punishment without prose-
cutting criminal cases against him
or his associates. The principle in
volved having been established, by
not pushing the further proceed
ings, it will be shown that the
government does not entertain
any revengeful or vindictive feel
ings against Mr.. Debs, the Ameri-
can Railroad Union, or any other
reputable labor organization.
Attorney General Olney, to whom
more than to any other man is due
credit Of suppressing the charge Of
riots and restoring Interstate traffic
to its normal condition, has in all
his official relations shown his
earnest Sympathy with Or
ganized labor when the objects
sought to be obtained were law
full. AS an evidence Of this fact, it
will be recalled that during the
tendency of the contest between
the Reading railroad and its en-
ployes, wherein the company sought
to establish its right to discharge
any employee who should join a
railwaymen's union, Mr.. Olney, I'M
solicited, filed with the court brief
in whichhe stoutly maintained the
right ofthe men to associate them
selves together for mutual aid and
protection and declared the action
of the railroad repugnant to the
American idea of civil law and
Justice.

a parity.
There is some doubt about the
silver men being unable to get a
concession on free coinage. There

A Quorum Secured Committee
Equally Divided on the Metals.
DALLAS, Tex, May 2S.-Special
MIR. McInnis, Of Bryan, arrived
this morning, making a quorum Of
the state Democratic executive
committee. Chairman Dudley
called the committee to order with
s gold and s silver men on hand
and 10 members Of the committee
absent. Chairman Dudley there
fore holds the balance of power for
any action that may be taken today.
Mr.. Ware introduced resolution
that the finance question, so far
as the Democrats OF Tt Xas are con-
ceTned, be referred to a separate
state national convention Of dele
gates chosen by primaries Of the
people. Said primaries and state
convention not to be held earlier
than 1896.
Several delegates wished to make
the date indefinite to be left to the
future discretion of the State COM
mittee, the apparent idea being to
hold primaries and state conven-
tion during 1895.
Mr.. Morley, who had seconed
Mr.. Wares original motion, OBJ
jected to any amendment that
would bring about primaries or a
state convention earlier than 1896.
The entire finance question, in
Guiding these motions, was then
referred to a committee Of five,
Hill and Barefoot for the silver
me n, and Wear and Walker, gold
men, with Chairman Dudley at
the fifth member. At 1920 this
committee is at work.

Murder or Suicidep

ST. JOSEPH, Mo, May 2S.-On the
AFTERNOON north Burlington and
Missouri River train was.borne into
the Union depot a grewsome bur-
den. When nearing the city the
PORTER made an unsuccessful at
tempt to open the closet door and
hooking through the window saw a
horrible sight. A man about 30
years old lay weltering in blood
that poured from cash In the
neck, that almost severed the head
from the body. When the door
was broken open a pool Of blood
rusted out. The stranger, who was
Head, had evidently committed
Buicide, though there was no
Weapon to be found. 1t is believed
bis name is Ed. Sanford. In his
pocket was found several letters
addressed to Ed. Sanford, care Cash
Luckel, Houston, Texas. On the
upper left hand corner was the re-
urn inscription and business card
I NJ. E. Sanford, Occidental restau-
ant and lunch room, Tecumseh,
Eeb. The man had q ticket from
Kansas City to Tecumseh. There
vas no money found on the dead
nan and this, coupled with the
allure to find the instrument Of
cath, tends to a theory Of murder.

NEW YORK. May 2S.-James j.
Corbett glared at Robert Fitzsim-
mons last night at the Coleman
house, but no noses were tweaked,
and no heads were punched, as had
been threatened. Joe Vendig,
representing the Florida club, w.
A. Brady, acting for Corbett, and
Emanuel Friends, lawyer acting
for Fitzsimmons, tried to talk a lit
tie business about arranging the
much talked Of fight.
AS Corbett had posted his forfeit
Of $1,000, and FitZ. had not nor
had it with him, Corbett seemed to
have the best end OF that part OF
the argument. Mr.. Friends word
for the money was accepted by Joe
Vendig.
The final outcome OF the whole
affair was that Joe Vendig will de-
eide where the fight shall take
place. and when that is decided up
on, Fitz. will post his forfeit. Cor
bett wanted something tangible to
bind matters, some papers with
the Australians name down in
black and white, but Friend said
his "nod" would do just as we'll,
and the nod did.

OF Our Soldier Dead,

OF Our Soldier Dead.
The wild flowers bloom on the
battle fields,
Where the cannon once did roar,
And men were swept like autumn
leaves,
Down to soundless shore.
Time rolls on, the sun still shines,
While the world goes bravely on,
And naught is left Of the boys we
loved,
But dust, and the cause they
won.
AS year by year the roll is called,
For the boys who wore the blue.
We sadly note that one by one,
They are passing from earthly
view.
The days, and months, and years
roll by,
AS they did in the olden time,
But our heads are gray and the
voice vibrates,'
With a sad and mournful rhyme.
A few more days and we all shall
meet,
Where the Reaper loves to revel,
The Blue and Gray, the rich and
poor,
VIII meet upon the level.
Only beyond this mortal ken,
Can we hope for full fruition,
OF the hopes and fears Of other
years,
AS me meet in glad reunion.
