TANGLE OVER TRAFFIC.
Western Roads and the Steamship
Companies at Odds

CHICAGO, Dec IA meeting of the
advisory committee of the Emigrant
Clearing house was held today at the
Office of Chairman Caldwell The
meeting was called in a hurry to con-
slider a reply received from the trans
atlantic steamship companies to the
request of the roads that an order. is
sued by the steamship companies last
July, be suspended. The companies re-
fused to agree to the wish of the rail
roads The order in question virtually
took all the routing of the emigrant
business out of the hands of the rail
roads, the steamship companies claim
ing that they We're to control the traf
hc until 1t reached its destination
This amounted to practical ignoring
Of the clearing house and the Western
roads wanted the order cancelled or
at least suspended until such time as
they could complete their arrange
ment for the satisfactory routing of
the traffic to all concerned. The re-
fusal of the steamship companies to
suspend the order has thrown the pros
poets Of an agreement between the
steamship companies and the railroads
on the handling of Westbound emf
grant traffic to the winds
The roads are willing to abide by
their own agreement, but, if the steam
ship companies persist in routing thu
business to suit themselves, 1t is gc--
ng to make much trouble for the West
.:rn lines. The reason given by thu
'teamship companies for their refusal
that the agents of the railroad com
sanies have been ignoring the proyfs

From the first bottle OF Rickapeo Indian

six bottles of Sagwa she was wholly free of
her female diseases, could eat and digest her
food, and most wonderful of all. her evesight
was completely restored. While in this con-
dition my wife gave birth to a boy, who
inherited herwealS eyes and he became almost

done for his mother, gave him this remedy

weak the larger portion of the time that /
could perform but very little labor. I also
took Sagwa, using but two bottles, and am

Sagwa certainly performed wonders in my
family. IT. 3. NoEEN,s Urbana, Champaign

If today you are suffering from any sick
ness resulting from a disordered condition of
the kidneys, stomach, liver and blood, take
Sagwa. 1t cures when cure is possible.
1t is the most wonderful blood purifier
known. 1t cannot injure the most delicate
baby, as it is purely vegetable, containing no
mineral or other poisonous ingredients. You
will feel its benefits with the first dose, and
continue to improve until you become one of
the multitude who are alive today only
through its use, and realize to what they
owe their life. If you wish further particulars

doctors who will give you medical advice free.

Now that the northern lines to the

in the region of Eau Claire The lines
to the south have been having the long

the trouble abates several lines are
destined to loose from one to three

The extent of the ice blockade is said
to be greater than ever before in the
history Of the river. The water is
backed up against the railway right of
way of several Of the roads. The Wis
consin Central passenger Monday even
ing and last evening used the tracks
of the Northwestern between ST. Paul
and Eau Claire, the tracks of the Wis
consin Central being threatened with
1nundation. The tracks of the Milwau-
kee and the Burlington are also threat

Chairman Caldwell ruled that the Canadian

Remarkable Charges Brought Out
by q Contest in Gotham

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The will Of Lena
Horowitz will be contested upon an extraor-
binary ground. Witnesses have come forward
tc testify that it was not until she was lead
that q pen was placed IN her hand and guided
to write a cross at the testator's mark. In
addition to this, Abraham Horowtz her
husband, will claim that he was sent to an
insane asylum the result of Il conspiracy
to defraud him of his wife's money.
Horowitz attorneys said today: we have
afiidavits from reliable witnesses that Horo-
WITT was perfectly sane up to the time of his
disappearance. l am convinced that he was
sent to an asylum in order ttat the will con-
test might be stopped. We viii also prove
that the will was not signed 'ly Mrs. Horo-
witt, although it bears Il mark that pur-
ports TO be her signature. Mrs Lottie Pin
Gus, an aunt Of Herowitz, swears that size
and several others OF ais relatives were not
permitted to see the dying woman. They
were kept in the outer ROOM
When she viii was brought in from the
Office of a lawyer in the ne'ghbnfh0od Mrs.
Herewitz was dead Mrs. ?incus says size
peeped through the keyhole and saw some
body place a pen in the dead wonan's hand
and guide it so as 10 make q mark ON the
paper. Other witnesses testify TO the same
thing.
Mrs Pincus confirms ;Iie story and SAYS
she is willing to swear THAI Mrs. Horovitz
was dead when [he will WAS brought in.
