No Round Trip Tickets at Half Fare
Can BE Issued.

Can BE Issued.
CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-Chairman Cald-
well. Of the Western Passenger associa-
ton, has handed down an important
ruling on the question of clergy per-
mits. The agreement of the transcon-
tinental roads provides for the issue OF
half-fare tickets, good for thirty days,
but nothing in the agreement covers the
question of half-fare round-trip tickets.
Some Of the lines, taking the absence of
a direct prohibition as a permission,
have issued a number of thirty-day
round-trip tickets. Chairman Caldwell
has ruled that the failure of the associa-
ton to provide for the issue of round
trip tickets means that they are not to
( be issued, and they are accordingly pro-
hibited in transcontinental business.

MURDER AND ARSON CHARGED.
William Miller Accused of killing HIS
Father at Lancaster,

FhJner at Lancaster.
LANCASTER, Pa, March 17.-Yesterday
afternoon William Miller, aged 2S years
was arrested charged with the murder of
his father, William Miller, aged 20 years.
on Jan. 25, when the Champion Forge and
Blower works were destroyed by fire and
the aged mans remains were found in the
ruins. Charles Tinker, of this place, was
arrested as an accomplice The arrests
were made by Detective S. A. Elwell, of
New York, who has been working on the
case since the beginning of February.
Previous to the date of the alleged
crimes of arson and murder the town had
been terrorized by numerous incendiary
fires, and no trace of the guilty ones could
be found. The fire at the Champion works
caused loss Of $4,000 At the same time
the old watchman, Miller's father, could
not be found. Three days later his charred
remains were found among the debris of
the burned building. The position of the
body gave rise to suspicious of foul play,
and an investigation was begun by the
local police, who offered reward of $500
for the capture of the perpetrator of the
double crime. This was doubled by the
proprietors of the works.
Detective Elwell, who has been quietly
working up the case, says he has conclus.
i've evidence against Miller 1t is said the
accused bears bad reputation, and has
been involved in previous scrapes of most
serious character. 1t is alleged he was
seen in the vicinity of the fire ten minutes
before an alarm was sounded, without any
money while short time later he had
plenty of money and spent it freely. 1t is
further alleged that a few nights before
the tragedy he was heard to say if the "old
man" did no give him money he would
knock him in the head. The old watch.
man is known to have carried considerable
money on his person at all times, and his
accused son is said to have carried $40 in.

ST. PATRICKS Day PARADE
Ireland'S Natal Day Appropriately Cele-
brated in Town.
OPENED WITH CHURCH SERVICE
A Street Parade of the Local Irish Societies
Followed-The Town Had a Holiday
Appearance and All the Collieries
in the District Were Idle.

Ireand's natal day was very appropriately
celebrated in town to-day and the streets
presented quite holiday appearance, al
though the parade was not quite as large as
expected. This was probably due to the
fact that many who should have been in
line gave the Defender Hose Company a
hand at its ball last night and did not wake
early enough to-day However, the parade
was 4 very creditable one and the organiza-
tions in line presented a good appearance.
At nine o'clock this morning the st. Pat
rick's Society which arranged the celebra-
ton, met at Mellet's hall and proceeded be-
hind the Lithuanian Band to the Annuncia-
tion church, on West Cherry street, where
mass was celebrated Upon the conclusion
of the mass line of parade was formed in
front of the church and moved in the follow
ing order:
Grand Marshal-Hon. p Conry
Aides William Mitchell and j. f. Collier.
Sleigh containing Revs. o. Reilly and Maylon.
Escort Messrs. Michael Graham and
James Foley.
Lithuanian Band.
st. Patrick's Society.
Knights of Annuncation.
A. T. A. B. Band.
Annunciation T. A. B. Cadets.
Annunciation T. A. b. Society.
The weather was sublime, but the snow
covered streets made marching difficult and
the route of parade was reduced somewhat.
After the parade the Lithuanian Band
serenaded several prominent residents under
the leadership of Prof. Zeitz.
The Annunciation Z. A. B. band showed
considerable pluck in playing for the parade
after having been recognized but ten days.
The wearing of the green was pretty
general and the girls exhibited many unique
and very pretty designs of Shamrock badges
Every colliery in the district was idle all
day and the streets We're, consequently, qnite
lively with people
