In the Pennsylvania courts it has been
decided that roads must be made suitable
for bicycles as they are vehicles. Com
mon law says that each town shall put its
roads in shape for the passing of vehicles,

says that damages may be collected as in

OFFERS HIS ROYAL THANKS.
EMPEROR WILLIAM CLOSES THE
STATE COUNCIL WITH
A SPEECH.
PROMISES TO CONSIDER ALL GRIEv-
ANCES OF THE AGRICULTURAL
DIsTRfcTS.

BERLIN, March 21.-Emperor William
formally closed the sessions of the State
Council to-day. In so doing he made a
speech in which he said:
''After an arduous discussion of the mat
Jers before you, you have now reached the
end of your labors. If, perchance, the re-
suit does not satisfy in every respect the
high expectations formed in some quar-
tiers, it is nevertheless of great moment for
the Government whose task it is to employ
all effective means of relieving the distress
in husbandry that your deliberations rem
dered the limits attainable in this domain
clearly apparent after exhaustive discus
sion. 1t is universally admitted that the
agricultural distress, its causes and Sc
quences, besides the careful examination
OF the remedies which have heretofore been
proposed, either publicly or in the course
OF your discussion, form valuable basis
on which the Government may find some
future decisions.
I'm conclusion, beg you to consider
your part in the matter and to inculcate
the country districts within your report
with the feeling that when in the future
other questions similar to that of the pres
ent agricultural distress, and the measures
to be taken for its relief, excite the mind,
the Government should Immediately be
approached with the view of adopting
suitable measures for securing speedy re-
lief. l intend in such a case to instantly
give my personal attention to the requi-
site measures, and, if necessary, to sum-
mon the State Council. In closing the
proceedings L beg to offer you my royal
thanks -

While at Deaths Door He Is Sued for
Rent.
NEW ORLEANS, March 21.-Philip J.
Greene came to New Orleans from Denver.
Col, early last winter, and deciding to
make his home here established a
private clearinghouse, for which he
claimed a capital of 100000. He
applied for admission to the Clearing
house, but was refused. During the first
week of March he left for Chicago. Hehas
not returned since, and it is announced
that he is lying at deaths door in that city.
His wife left last night to join him.
Callers at the bank to-day were informed
that all funds on deposit had been re-
turned to the depositors, and that the
business would be wound up as rapidly as
possible. During the day suit was entered
against Mr.. Greene for $4,000, for rent of
offices occupied by him. and attachments
were run on the concern by the traders
aggregating $1,000.
The closing of the bank caused no ex-
element on Change, and the prospect is
that the losses, if there be any, will be
small.

STILL TT LTNGERS.
The After Effects of the Grip Seem to Be
Worse Than the Disease Itself.

no AAIef EneCbS OF JnS cCCAh W A'O
Worse Than the Disease Itself.
There are more weak, tired and rundown
people to-day than have been seen before in
i've years and owing to one special cause; that
cause is the grip. Grip is not as severe this
year as in the past, but it is very prevalent ana
quite as annoying. 1t leaves the person weak
SUBJECT to chills with occasionally flashes of
nigh fever, restlessness, lack of appetite, bad
TASTE IN the mouth and pains throughout the
body. The worst thing about grip is getting
over 1t and, even after it is broken, it is weeks,
sometimes months, and even years before the
person fully RECEIVERS.
Here is where the great danger the great
dread which attends the grip arises 1t leaves
the body weak, often broken and open to all
attacks which may come in after years. 1t
often ruins the life.
Now, there is only one way to overcome the
after effects of the grip and that is to build up
the system by genuine stimulant until il re-
gains its health and strength. There is nothing
which will do this as well as pure whisky and
there is but one pure medicinal whisky in
America, and that is Duffy's Pure Malt.
Thousands of statements could be given con-
corning people who have been brought around
TO perfect health after suffering from the grip
in its worst form entirely through its use Care
should be taken that no other stimulant is
used in its place, for there is no other that will
answer the purpose SO we'll Some druggists
or grocers often seek to substitute common
whiskies but in a case OF after effects of the
grip you cannot be too careful and should Sc
cure only the best.

"fdrdy' PNTteU GfceS the "IeTrtbte
Stcede" Secere Beating.
KANSAS CITY, March 21.-"Pardy''
Purtell made chopping- block out of
Johnson, the terrible Swede," before the
Galena Athletic Club, at Galena, Kans.,
last night, putting him to sleep in the
twenty-second round, with three corking
jabs with the left in the mouth, following
by swinging right handler on the face.
Johnson was terribly punished, his body
looking like piece of raw liver. 1t was
fully ten minutes before he regained con-
seriousness. Johnson was not in the fight
after the first round. The mill was fought
in the opera-house, and was witnessed by a
large crowd of sports, including the Mayor
of Galena and the Sheriff of Cherokee
County. Notwithstanding Governor Nor
rilPs strict orders to the Sheriff, there was
no attempt made to put stop to the fight
at any stage. After it was all over John
son and Purtell were both arrested, but it
was the supposition that the arrest was
only mere formality.
The citizens of Galena, which is place
of some 5000 inhabitants, not only did not
sustain the Governor in his attempt to
prevent the mill, but seem very indignant
that he should have endeavored to inter-
fere. They talked freely of putting the
Sheriff in jail until the fight was over in
case it had been understood that he would
take steps to carry out the Governors or
ders. The citizens seemed determined to
have the fight, and they had it.

FAILURE OF THE CROPS.
But This Is Not the Greatest
Blow Received by the
Road.
AS TO THE LINES FUTURE
Receivers Say the Offer Made to the
Government Was Exceed
ingly Fair.

OMAHA, March 21.-The future of the
Union Pacific was informally discussed to-
day in Omaha by Messrs. E. Ellery An
derson, J. w. Doane and Fred R. Coudert,
receivers of the Union Pacific system, who
arrived this morning from the East. ]. f.
Mink of the party said:
1.-The status of the Union Pacific might
be decidedly better and then not be at all
worthy of great comment. We are pretty
hard hit and the future is not at all prom
Using. While [ am hopeful that another
crop failure will not be put against Ne
braska this year, still farmers are afraid to
put in seed for fear that the dry soil will
not hold the grain and the winds will
sweep the seed away"
Upon the question of reduction in
salaries on the system Mr.. Mink would not
talk except to say that the subject had
not been seriously discussed, although the
receivers felt that the company was like a
tailor who, driven to retrenchment, had to
make his suit according to the size of the
cloth. He remarked that the Union
Pacific was paying higher salaries than
any of its competitors, but said that no
action had been taken to secure an order
VI 1AlC OOh1I OlOOlAhS 4C0uCI4Ou
Mr.. Anderson explained that he did not
believe that the Government will ever
again receive two fairer propositions than
those submitted to Congress last winter
that the Union Pacific should pay $40 OOO,-
600 at ? per cent, secured by first lien on
the property to the Government, and that
$34, 100000 should be paid outright and the
bills of the Government Cancelled. Both of
these propositions were refused on the part
of the Representative in Congress. He
said:
81 question very much if committee of
men representing the varied interest in
the Union Pacific will ever be able to agree
upon such fair propositions again"
"Oh, yes, they WILL" interjected Mr.
Coudert.
Mr.. Anderson continued: 1--WE found it
hard to combat among the Representatives
IN Congress the prejudices of thirty years
ago. The Union Pacific was product of
the necessity. There has never been de-
sire on the part of any interest, that I am
aware, to combat the claims of the Govern
ment in the road. We have been exceed
ingly anxious to make most advantageous
terms with it, for we recognize the help it
extended when help was needed. But I'M
less something remarkable should occur in
the next few years L am frank in saying 1
don't believe a more generous offer will
ever be made than was made last winter,
as happy outcome of our Affections"
Mr.. Coudert said: I'VE do not feel that
the Government is coercing US in any man
ner, and so far as we know the foreclosure
proceedings will not be hastily pushed.
This is grave problem and requires the
utmost elaboration. We are going through
our period of trouble and the Government
knows our condition"

Creedon Does Clever Work
in Only One of
Them.
THE CALIFORNIAN SUPERIOR
Only the Conditions of the Match
Save His BurIy OPP
ponent.

CHICAGO, March 21.-The six-round
contest between Joe Choynski and Dan
Creedon was draw, no decision being
given by the referee. The conditions pro-
vided that if both men were on their feet
at the conclusion of the sixth round no de-
cision would be given.
Choynski had all the best of it, except in
one round. He knocked Creedon down
twice, brought the blood in stream from
his nose, and had his man very tired and
groggy when the sixth round closed.
Choynski weighed 161 pounds, and al
though Creedon's weight was not given he
looked to weigh fully as much.
In the first round Choynski landed hard
on Creedon's head and got a hot one on
the body in return. Several exchanges
followed, but no heavy blows were struck.
The second round was Choynski's, he
doing all the leading and landed fire.
quently with his left on Creedon's heart
and face. He drew first blood with a
wicked drive on the nose, and had Creedon
badly winded when the gong sounded.
Creedon had the best of it in the third,
getting in several hot blows and driving
Choynski into the ropes with blow over
the kidneys as Choynski rose from a duck.
In the fourth Creedon reached Choyll-
skis wind several times, but the latter
kept poking his left into Creedon's face
with persistence that seemed to democrat
ize the latter. Both were tired at the close.
In the fifth Choynski landed his left on
Creedon's head and sent him to the floor,
Dan coming down as hard as though he
had fallen off three-story building.
In the last round it was hammer and
longs with Choynski doing all the ham
mering. He drove right and left into Cree
don's face and finally gave him smash that
laid him fiat. Creedon clinched repealed
ly to save himself and was very weary
man when the round closed. He did not
look able to go two rounds more.
Jimmy Barry of Chicago, the 105-pound
champion, practically knocked out Joe
Bertrand of California in six-round con-
test before the fight of the evening came
off. Bertrand was knocked down dozen
times and was not able to stand in the
sixth round, the fighting being stopped to
save knockout. Bertrand fought gamely,
however, and scored Touchdown in the
third round.

had r. Isom up. Tobey took the lead and
was never headed, winning by length,
running the short six furlongs in 1:16k.
