RaILROAD ENJOINE ED
Injunction Granted in the Hazel and Ivy Streets Trouble,

An injunction was granted by Judge Studley of the court of common pleas yesterday restraining the railroad from putting up fences at the Hazel and Ivy street crossings and from digging ditches.
 The injunction was applied for by Corporation Counsel Ely, the ground set forth in the application being that the crossings had been public highways for thirty years and the railroad threatened to close them up.
 The railroad will probably ask for 8 dissolution of the injunction before long.
 Early last evening a crowd of about 800 people from all parts of the city gathered at the railroad crossings on Hazel and Ivy street expecting that the employees of the railroad would at- tempt to build the fence across the streets. Five men of the railroad sec tion gang were present but up to a late hour last night had made no at tempt to put up the fence. Officer Doolittle of the Dixwell avenue precinct is to preserve the peace at the cross ings.

TARIFF BILL COMES TO 4 HALT
Debate Drifts from Schedules Into PoIiti.
 cal Channels.

Washington, June 1S--The tariff bill came to a halt in the senate to-day, less than one page of the flax schedule being disposed of. The debate drifted into political channels, Senators Bacon, Vest Jones Of Arkansas and Tillman taking part In an exposition of demo- cratic doctrine on the tariff. It led to several lively exchanges during which the cleansing of political dirty linen" was frequently referred to.
 Mir. Tillman's remarks were made with his characteristic vehemence and at one point he frankly stated con- corning the tariff that If there was to be stealing he wanted 11ls share for South Carolina. Late in the date MT. Morgan proposed sweeping amend ment to place 10 per cent. ad valorem duty on all articles now on the free list. Tn supporting his amendment he called attention to the singular fact of the income tax feature of the Wilson bill not being repealed and can be enforced by change in the personnel of the su- preme court of the United States.
 There was a conference of the senate finance committee tonight. For over two hours the schedule was discussed, but no definite conclusions were reach ed. Among those present were Messrs, Mantle, Foraker, Mcbride, Hanna and Warren. Senator Penrose, in whose state are large manufactures of wool en goods, also attended the meeting. It is thought some compromise will be reached soon, but he question of just what rates will be finally recommended is still open.

Proposed Heawoat Amendment.

Wheeling Railway will Not Accept the
Proposed HeHwoaa Amendment
Speaking OF the action taken by the
Benwood council on the ordinance to
connect the Wheeling and Benwood
Southern railway tracks, Secretary shir-
ley, OF the Wheeling company, yesterday
said thar his company would never con-
sent 10 a fiye-cent fare 10 the lower end
OF Benwood, as provided In the amend
ment to the ordinance tackled on by the
council There are many reasons why
the company does not feel disposed TO
do this, chief Of which Is that It would
have no control Of the other cOmpany's
tracks, and such a plan would involve a
lot of confusion, both ON the down and
up trips,
This can easily be understood when 1t
Il considered that there would be a con-
tinuous line OF tracks from Wheeling 10
Moundsville, operated by two compan-
les. And even II the ordinance was
passed, the cars would be run through
from Wheellug only on special occa-
sions, for there is not enough traffic to
warrant a car oftener than every half
hour. The ordinance In its amended
form, win come up again two weeks
hence, but 10 meet with acceptance the
five-cent fare viii have to be elimina-
ted, The Southern line which Is In the
hands of receivers viii be put up for
sale witiItn few months, and II would
be no surprise IL 1t was bought by the
Wheeling Railway Company.
