FORGERS INDICTED.
Railroads Have Been Swindled Out Of
Thousands of Dollars,

Chicago Jan. .-Thessgrand jury to-
day indicted VIM. a. Burns and twelve
others on charge of victimizing the Bal
timorc and Ohio railroad out of thousands
of dollars worth of transportation
Burns was the ringleader of the plot.
The men are said to I'LL have forged
tickets
The officials OF the road who appeared
before the grand jury had 81, 00C of the
forged tickets with them and the plates
from which they were printed These
tickets were sold to scalpers. it is said,
and hundreds of them were used before
the counterfeit was discovered
The men engaged in the wholesale for
gerry are said to each have been employed
around railroad Offices and all are famil-
lar with railroad matters. 1T is thought
the operations of the men were not con
fined to forging tickets on the Baltimore
and Ohio system, but that the forreries
extended to other roads

WORKING FOR HANNA.
Sherman Has Written a Letter in
His Behalf.

Columbus, O.. Jan. 27.-Governor
bushnell admitted TO night that it was
true that Senator Sherman has written a
letter to him in regard to his proposed
resignation from the Senate and the gill
ing OF the vacancy. He said the letter
was private one and he had regarded it
as confidential. He would still do so,
though he might ultimately give it to the
public. No one but himself had seen 1t.
He would say, however, what every one
would guess, that the Senator told him
that he would probably soon resign and
he thought that it would be best for the
party and for the State and country If
Mr. Hanna would be appointed AS his
successor.
1t is generally believed that the gov.
ernor will not comply with Senator Sher-
mans request and his manner of speak
ing seemed to corroborate this view of it.

From the Chicago Record.

In any settlement of the Cuban trouble which
this Government may promote, the sanitary
question viii play an important part. Mr..
Olney opened correspondence ON this subject
with Spain. but went no further than to inform
that country how much the epidemiCs of Cuba
mean to the United States. He forwarded
through the Spanish Minister TO that Govern
ment IA strong protest from Surgcon-General
WyInnn against the continuance OF the danger
Gus and costly menace which tho island has long
been TO the Western hemisphere.
When the present Administration moves In
the Cuban matter this grievance which the
United States has against the island Will be
kept prominently In view. AT some point In tho
negotiations 1t will DO insisted that whatever
government 10 established, upon the return OF
peace, a guarantee shall be required to main
tain better sanitary conditions. The State de-
pnrtment and the Marine Hospital service will
shortly consider the sanitary proYiso upon
which this country will insist.
The SUPERINTENDENT has estimated, as tho re-
suit of an investigation extending over q long
series of years, that over 80 per cent. OF tho
danger OF contagion to this country from yellow
fever and other contagious diseases originates in
Cuba, Tho remedy IL only "a question of the OK
penditure of money, and that In Havana, princi-
pally. 1t Is the conclusion of experts, including
several Spanish commissions appointed to eN-
anime into the conditions. that the same regard
for sanitary laws observed in tho cities OF tho
United States and Europe will stamp out yellow
fever In Cuba, where the rayages are continuous
every month in the year. The last invasion OF
this disease from Cuba into the Mississippi valley
caused $4,000 deaths and entailed q commercial
loss Of Sl00.O00,0OO.
