AFTER THE RAILWAYS.
Complaint Lodged Against Members
Of the Joint Traffic AS
ISOLATION.

New York, Jan. 9.-United States Dis
trict Attorney McFarlane filed bill of
complaint in the United States circuit
court today against the thirty-two rail
road companies forming the Joint Traf-
fic association Mr.. McFarlane also
gave notice that Oil January II he would
move for an injunction restraining the
association from operating under it's
agreement.
In the bill of complaint it is charged
that the agreement between the compa-
MES is intended to combine or pool all
competition in traffic within its scope
and that it is unlawful in that it estab-
fishes not only a traffic pool but likewise
a pool Of earnings, in violation of sec
ton of the interstate commerce act and
that i is 2 contract or combination in
restraint of interstate trade and COM
merce and unlawful under the antitrust
act of July 2, 1890, known as the Sher-
man antitrust act. The bill of COM
plant asks as relief to have the con-
tract between the railroads declared null
and void and the parties to it perpetually
enjoined from acting under the agree
ment. The complaint also asks for a
temporary injunction.

A WATER COMBINE.
Fox River Valley Millmen will Unite
Memorial to Congress
Withdrawn.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 9.-[Special.l
1t is reported here that the long talked
of combination of Fox River valley man
ufacturers for the control Of the water
supply in the river has been effected and
that the heretofore desired interference
of Congress VIII rot be asked. Color, is
lent to the report by the fact that the
memorials sent by the Fox river manu-
facturers to the Wisconsin members
have not been presented to Congress.
When asked why they had not been
heard of, the member said that there
were developments in Wisconsin which
would probably change the whole plan
and that it might not be necessary to
ask the aid of Congress. Later it was
learned that the reported consummation
of the big combine was the develop
ment'' referred to. A prominent repre-
sentative of the Fox river manufact-
urers is expected here in a day or two
and then the exact situation will be
known.

ATTEMPTED LYNCHING.
A Chicago Mob Tries to Hang Four
Brutes, Who Are Rescued
by the Police.

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 10.-William West,
George Smith, John Roberts and John
Jamison had a narrow escape from
lynching in fashionable residence dis
trict in this city last night. All four
are hostlers in the employ of the Chicago
Livery company at Thirty first street
and Indiana avenue. They enticed Ella
Ryan, 8 years old, and Minnie Cody,
whose age is 10, into the livery barn yes
terday and assaulted them. When dis
covered by their parents the girls were
in a pitiable condition. Their stories OF
their sufferings at the hands Of the
brutes soon spread through the neighbor-
hood and DR.. Chamberlain, a leading
physician, was among the most active III
organizing q party to run down the
wretches. The parents of the children
learned from their lips enough to satisfy
them that the stablemen were the guilty
parties. The suspects were captured
last night and led into the presence OF
the girls. They were promptly recog-
nized by their victims. Then DR.. Cham
berlain led the way to an electric light
pole. Ropes were procured and all four
gave promise of dangling by the neck in
another minute. But a policeman, at
tracted by the angry shouts of the crowd,
had sent in a riot call to the nearest po-
lice station. When the patrol wagon.
loaded with bluecoats, arrived with the
horses on a dead run, it came none too
soon to save four miserable mems lives.
The four were seized. bundled into the
wagon, and the crowd slowly dispersed.

MR.. CHANDLER GETS $500" LAND.
Supreme Court Decides His Scrip Title is
a Valid Claim.

Detroit, Mich, Jan. IA dispatch
from Washington received here an
nounces that the Supreme court has de-
cided the famous $500" land case in
favor of William Chandler. The land
In dispute contains thirty-six acres and
fronts on the canal. The plat was orig
inally the fort reserve, but in 1852 Presi-
dent Fillmore, by proclamation, dis
tinguished between the large. tract Of
Chippewa land originally reserved ''for
the use of Fort Brady and the grounds
of the fort proper. This left the land
open for settlement and Byron s. Ad-
sit took out patent which was denied
in 1860, although he had that year
decided the property to William P. Spald-
ing, who brought the present suit against
Chandler. Chambers title dated only
from 1881, when he located the Porter
field scrip, and he was granted patent
in 1888 The court decides that the title
did not pass from the Chippewa Indians
until long after the refusal to admit
Adsit's patent and therefore Chambers
scrip title is good. The controversy has
seen on for over ten years.

on Board,

New York, Jan. S.-A special from

a large steamer went ashore off Drum

time they ceased and at daylight this
morning the bow of large steamer
could be plainly seen through the snow.
The after portion of the ship was sub

Trains His Guns on Washington Women
Attacks Social Functions.
New York, Jan. Sin an interview i'll
the Brooklyn Eagle Senator Hill gives
evidence that he has at last fallen vic
tim to the 'war fever that is sweeping
the earth. More daring than Senator
Lodge or Chandler or President Cleve-
land who have challenged England, the
senior senator from New York has de-
clared open hostilities against the women
of Washington. He will make social
functions relics of the past. He says:
81 think it would be a mighty good
idea if the women were packed away
and sent out of Washington and the men
left alone here to attend to the BUSH
ness that they are sent here for by the
country The trouble is there are too
many dinners and too much social dis
sipation in official circles at the capital.
No man can go to these fashionable din
ners night after night and sit up until
morning attending to social functions
and be in any condition to grapple with
the knotty problems of finance and af-
fairs that are at this time forced upon
the consideration of our public men. /
know that [ are called a crusty old
bachelor, but if any sane man will think
over what [ have said | believe he will
agree with me and acknowledge that l
am right. This criticism applies to mem
bers of the Senate and of Congress and
to officials of the administration. | at
tribute a good many foolish plumbers
made by the public men of late to just
these things, too much society and not
enough attention to and study of public
affairs"

Washington, D. c., Jan. 8.-The navy
department. is advised of the departure
Smyrna probably tomorrow. The San
Francisco is already there and the Mar
blehead is at Mersene, $40 miles distant.
This doubtless gave rise to the over
drawn reports that naval demonstra-
ton is about to occur at Smyrna as a
means of forcing the Turkish govern
ment to yield to the demands of the
United States for an indemnity for re-
cent depredations on missionary proper
ty. Acting Secretary McAdoo said to-
day that there was no significance in
the movements of the ships toward Smyr-
ma. These movements were not directed
from Washington, but were brought
about by the admiral in command of the
feet in Turkish waters.
