LAKE FRONT CASE Up.
Com missioner Lamoreux is Hear
ing an Argument'of Great In
tereSt to Chicago,

Washington, D c., Nov. 23.-The
Chicago lake front case came up for 4
hearing before Commissioner Lamoreux
today. 1t involves 100 acres of land
whose value is estimated by some as high
as S20,000,000. Although there are only
two sides to the controversy there are
half a dozen interests involved on the
side whose contention is for public do
main. The other claimants. whose con-
tentions are based on a patent issued to
one Kinzie in 1887. y. X. Fairbanks,
the Ogden-Sheldon estate, the New berry
library and others now in possession of
parts of land. The city of Chicago also
has claim through it's park committee.
The hearing begins today and is likely to
last three days.
Today was de-oted to the arguments
for the Fairbanks, Ogden-Sheldon and
NeWberry library, made by Attorneys
Needham and Cotton. They submit that
none of the lands in controversy can be
surveyed as public lands, that the sur
vey made under the order of the Office
of September "A, 1896, should not be
approved and that the application of
Renner and La Toilette should not. be
allowed in any particular. They claimed
that the patent of I\inzie was for lands
to the lake front and the accretions nat
ural and artificial belonged to the prop
erty.

Sam They think it possible that
knockout drops may have entered in the
game, and this an autopsy is to decide.
While they believe that Arbuckle was
robbed they do not think he was slugged.
The only bruise upon his body is an abra-
sion on the back of the head, which was
evidently caused by bis fall. The de-
tectives say that they have traced Ar
buckle and Stewart and "Sheeny Sam"
to La Oranges saloon and restaurant, at
where they were seen together at 1910
O'Clock at night. No trace of Arbuckle
has been obtained from that time until
he was found unconscious at Eighth ave-
nue. and One Hundred and Fifty-second
street at 2:45 o'clock in the morning.

ments. if. as is supposed. he went uptown
on a train before midnight
Col. FiegePs Statement.
Col Frederick Fiegel, a friend of Ar
buckle. said last night that a telegram
had been received from Mrs Arbuckle,
saying that she would reach Chicago
Saturday morning and would be in New
York Sunday at noon Col FiegeI said
that he thought Mr.. Arbuckle got on an
elevated train going uptown by mistake,
and had been carried far uptown before
he was awakened by the guard. Then,
getting out of the train, he was some
what daZed, not knowing exactly where
he was; that he was shortly after at
tackled by the persons who had robbed
him, and that the excitement brought on
heart failure.
1t was learned last night that Arbuckle
was seen last before his death at Forty
second street and Sixth avenue Wednes-
day night just before II o'clock. He
was in the saloon attached to the ST.
Charles hotel at the northwest corner
of Forty-frst street and Sixth avenue
There he appeared to be alone though he
treated a number of men who were in the
place at the time. He showed number
of bills and gave his card to one of the
men. When he left the saloon he was
seen talking to q number of cabmen,
and finally went up the street, toward
the elevated station, at Forty-second
street. He was alone.

or of the dead man, called at the under
takers where the body was lying yes
terday. Richard Arbuckle was collector
of the port of Erie, Pa, during Presi-
dent Cleveland's first administration
He is 81 years old. When interviewed
Mr.. Arbuckle said that the news of his
brothers death reached him through a
newspaper reporter in Erie. Regarding
the report that his brother had been
drinking heavily, he said that such
statement appeared to him to be absurd,
as he ha0 never known his brother to
drink liquor at any time.

dead man, is SO years old. and he has

PRUSSIAN DIET OPENS.
Prince Hohenlohe Reads the Speech
from the Throne Which Speaks
of Favorable Conditions.

Berlin. Nov. 20.-The Prussian Diet
was opened today. The speech from the
throne was read by the imperial chancel-
lor, Prince Hohenfohe. 1t referred to
the favorable condition of the finances,
the budgets of 1856 and 1867 show
ing considerable SURPRISES. while the esti-
mates for 1878 did not show deficit.
Continuing, the speech read:
although the continuance of such a
situation for any length of time is I'M
certain, it is found practicable to raise
the salaries of the middle grade and SUI
perior state officials as we'll as the sal
aries of the teachers of the middle
schools and universities. and to increase
the grants for widows and orphans"
The speech further announces bills for
raising the salaries of elementary school
teachers and for rearranging the emolu-
ments of judges and measures will also
be submitted for reducing the interest of
the per cent. loans introducing q sys-
tenn of obligatory redemption of the debt
and for establishing an equalization fund
for covering future deficits, providing
for the construction of railroads, the pur-
chase of the Observation-Disclosures railway
by the state, amending the law of public
association and adopting measures in ia
yOr of PruSSian agriculture.

Col. Fred Grant, who was in the city
over Sunday as the guest of Mr.. Everett,
went to Canton today for the purpose, as
he stated, of paying his respects to the
president-elect. In an interview Col.
Grant said that he was aware that his

NEW TERMINAL ROADS.
London District Railway will Build
Two Underground Electric
Lines.

Copyrighted 1896, by the Associated Press.
London, Nov. 23.-A meeting Of the
Metropolitan District Railway Stock
holders association was held here in
furtherance of the project for construct
ing two deep level tunnels for an up and
down service of express electric trains
between Earls Court and Mansion
House. The stockholders have endorsed
the action of their directors in APPROX
ing the scheme, and the necessary pow
ers will be asked for at the coming ses-
sion of Parliament. That they will be
granted is foregone conclusion.
Parliament has already sanctioned six
metropolitan underground projects and
two will be sanctioned at the forthcom-
ing session. There are still others in the
air, all electrical. Most of these lines
are planned to rectify the extraordinary
want of foresight which practically for
babe the terminal of the great railways
to advance beyond what were in the
days of their building, the suburbs of
London. The result has even since been
that the traveller consumes as much time
in getting from one great terminus to
another on the side of the Metropolis as
would suffice to carry him fifty miles on
his journey
