large grounds attached, says de-
tective, is to- fix lines of string or
wire few inches above the grass
and gravel, SO that in the event Of
discovery the pursuers may trip and
fall down. In big house in Somer-
setshire one evening some house
breakers were heard at work while
the family was gathered together
at the dinner table. The alarm be-
ing given, all the gentlemen and
neHservants started off in pursuit,
some one way and some another.
The butler; rather portly indi-
yidual, and one Of the footmen
caught sight of. the thieves making
for the wall bounding the grounds.
They saw them pass over tho rustic
bridge that crossed the stream; but,
knowing that the latter was very
shallow, the butler and his assistant
Thought to make short cut by wad-
ing through.
Unfortunately the thieves had an
ticipated this maneuver and had
stretched piece of wirva foot or so
above the edge of the bank, with
the inevitable result that both the
pursuers fell laundering into the
water. The burglars shouted out
their sarcastic congratulations and
at once disappeared into tho dark

if the roof of my mouth were cracking. My

The passenger rate war, which is said
to be about to break out into open
hostilities is being conducted so skill
fully that there are few outward evil
dences of it's existence. The evasive
answers given by the passenger men,
when put down in black and white
and served UP in one mess, make
first-rate railroad joke. Every one
denies that he is guilty and says that
the Blank and Blank road is the only
one which would be likely to tell any,
thing about the real inside state of
affairs ..-'-.'.
Who is cutting the rates anyhow
, No one seems to know, and an after
noon spent in trying to find out was
very discouraging to a reporter for the
Clio b e.
The Chicago Great Western says
"'Taint me-

The Minneapolis & ST. Louis AYERS,
''It must be our next neighbor."
The Burlington remarked, I'VE be-
long to the association. 1t is not u.s.
The Milwaukee made oath and de-
clared that it must be the ''scalpers. ="
The 500 on it's honor said that it
was not in the cutting business at
present and that the situation was
normal"
A Northern Pacific official was kind
enough to interpret this word NOR
maj and said it indicated that there
was always a little cutting, but that
the situation was no worse now than
it always is.
A facetious official of the Great
Northern, when asked who was doing
the cutting, said: ''It must be the last
man who is offered the business"
The last answer is probably about
the real and actual truth of the matter.
Now the question arises, who gets the
offer last?
1t would be useless to go all along
the line again with this new query, for
there would be another crop Of the
usual 'It isn't u.s."
1t is quite probable that individual
fares to Chicago are not being cut to
any great extent, perhaps not at all.
Parties of two or three could probably
not secure over the counter rates less
than the usual $11.30 to Chicago. But
let base ball aggregation, a threatri-
cal troupe, party of tourists or a
gathering of travelling men, in fact any
party of more than six or eight peo-
pie, come along and ask for reduced
rates, and they would stand a very
good show at the present time of get
ting very low rates. This is not only
true of thegscalpers. It is true Of prob
ably six out of the half dozen Chl-
cago lines, although the three roads
which are not members of the asso-
citation probably took the initiative.
Local passenger officials who attend
ed a passenger meeting at Chicago Oh
Tuesday, said yesterday they had
heard nothing about the extensive rate
war which is supposed to exist in this
city. They say the Chicago kilograms
are exaggerated.

THE sCHOCHET.
The Butcher for the Orthodox He
brews and What Is Required of


Orthodox and libera1e Hebrews of
Baltimore are watching with great
deal of interest the peculiar case which
began yesterday in the City court be-
fore Judge Phelps, and, which involves
the Jewish method of slaughtering cat
tle,- says the BaltimoreaSun.
Suit is brought by Isaac Salowits
chick, by Attorney Samuel Rosenthal.
against Levy Edlavitch, Jewish
butcher, who Is defended by Attorney
William H. Weissager. 5,a..
AS outlined in the declaration and
the opening statement; Salowitschicl
claims to be "schochet, . or killer,
appointed to slaughter cattle and
sclaves according to Jewish rites. He
declares that on Feb. q, 1885,. he con-.
7tracted with Edlayitch to kill cattle
for him. at the rate of rs cents head,
The day after his%frst killing he was
discharged, and the suit was brought
ITO recover the money he would Nave
earned. had the contract been fulfilled.
Mr. Weissager, in his opening state
ment to the jury, outlined the respons-
Utilities of 'schochet." The killer is
appointed by authority of the chief
rabbi of a city, he explained, to kill
the beeyes and calves, and after ex-
anining the carcasses brand them as
"kasher" or as "trepha." Kosher
means clean or, wholesome, and is the
only kind of meat which their religious
laws will allow orthodox Jews to eat.
trepha, or unclean meat, Is not of
necessity bad or injurious, but it is
not so good as kosher meat, and the
orthodox believers may not knowingly
partake Of it.
The schochet must hold his appoint
ment from the rabbi Mr.. Weissager
declared, and the rabbi has power to
discharge killer who is not correctly
discharging his duties.
A knowledge Of anatomy is requisite
for the killer, and he must be able al
mcst by sense of touch to tell whether
an ar.imh is diseased or not. The ex-
animation is made, as soon as car
cass is cut open, by the killer thrust
ing his arm in and feeling Of the various
organs and their relative position In

be of certain dimensions and the cut
must be made with precision, for the
slightest hacking or nicking of the flesh

thousand Populists held an "indigna-
ton meeting here to discuss railroad
freight rates, and this meeting afford
ed Gov. Leedy an opportunity to spring
a surprise upon the people of Kansas.
After referring to the recent supreme
court decision further curtailing the
authority of the interstate commerce
commission, he declared that the time
had come for the people of the West
to act, and he asserted that they must
themselves furnish the needed relief
from exorbitant freight rates. There
upon he proceeded to outline plan
which, he said, had been maturing for
four months. He announced that he
appeared before the meeting as the
representative of a company of rail-
road men who desired to go into
partnership with the public in the
building of railroad from some point
in central Nebraska through Kansas,
Oklahoma, Indian territory and Texas
to the gulf. He said the company he
spoke of was able and ready to COM
plete the road, provided the public
would take the majority interest in it.
and that the public need not put up
one cent until the railroad should be
completed. The proposition is that
the states and municipalities shall hold
the majority of stock.

large portions of another Freight can
now be billed through from China to

shipped from China or Japan, comes to
the United States via the Northern
Pacific or the Nippon Yusen Kaisha
line of steamers to Puget sound. Here
the two great continental roads take
the shipments and carry them to Du-

that in time the Nippon Yusen Kaisha

Plan TO Force Western Roads to
Join the Association.

Join the ASSOCIATION.
CHICAGO, May 27.-A- meeting Of
the zines Of the Western Passenger as
sociation was held today for the pur-
pcse of considering the report of the
executive committee of the association
epon the work it has accomplished
since it's formation. To the commit
zee has been intrusted the formation
of the local associations, the manage
ment of the immigrant bureau in New
York and other matters of like nature.
The report of the committee was pre-
sented by Chairman White, of the ex-
ecutive committee, and the reading Of
the report occupied greater part Of
the meeting. The work Of the COM
nittee was too large to be considered
at one sitting and an adjournment was
taken until tomorrow.
The most unsatisfactory part of the
report of Chairman White was that
relating to membership. So far only
two of the transcontinental roads, the
Atchison and the Union Pacific, have
become members of the association,
and three Of the Chicago-St Paul lines
are still on the outside. Some discus.
sion was had as to the best method
of getting these lines to become mem
bers,< but no formal: action was taken
It will probably be determined that no
line which is not a member of the
association as whole can have the
benefits Of the local associations, the

Immigrant bureau and the clergy and
mileage ticket bureaus. All of the
roads are unit in declaring that they
receive much benefit from all these
bureaus and all of them are willing
to become members Of them, but OBJ
ject to joining the general association.
1t will without question be determined
that road which is not a member OF
the association in one thing cannot be
a member in another. 1t must be all
or nothing.
