while depicting the sad scenes sur
rounding him, did not forget the other
part of hospital life and dwelt with
much earnestness on the appreciation
the convalescent patients would feel if
they were only able to see book or
magazine occasionally. He said the pa
pers and magazines his thoughtful sis
ter had already sent had done the con
valescents world of good, but We're
not enough to go around.
Miss Kilbourne thought the matter
over and the other morning it dawned
upon her that the war department was
a good place to visit So she went there
and sent her card to General Miles.
She fairly beamed this afternoon when
she recounted the kindly and courteous
tr satment extended TO her by the COM
handing general of the army. He de
clared she should have every assistance
in the power of the army to help in the
good work He knew nothing so CRATE
full to "a man getting well as a good
magazine or a pleasant book. AT Gen
eral Miles suggestion Miss kilbourne
visited the quartermaster general
office where Mr.. Hardie heard her mis-
sion. He cordially allied himself in the
movement, and told Miss kilbourn0
that all papers, books and magazine

DISTRUSTED THE COURT
THIEF WOULDN'T CONFESS TILL HIS
SENTENCE WAS RECORDED.
John Brown Rented a Safety Deposit
Box for His Booty, He
Claims.

John Brown, n coIored man about twen-
ty-two years of age, pleaded guilty IN the
Criminal Court yesterday to petit larceny.
His plea Of guilt was the result of a COM
promise between the court, the state at
torney and himself Brown was arrested
and arraigned in Police Court few days
ago on the charge Of grand larceny. He
was held to the grand jury and frequent
interviews he has had with the detectives
in the last few days led to the action yes
terday.
On Christmas night the home of c. F.
Carpenter, at No. 1929 Hoyt avenue, was
looted by some one who entered the resi-
dence in the absence of the family Drawers
and boxes were opened by the thief, and a
considerable quantity of jewelry and silver
plate was taken, besides lot
of clothing. Mr.. Carpenter claimed to have
missed valuabes amounting to $3.50. There
was no clew to the thief until the arrest
of John Brown by Detectives Asche and
Dugan. Brown was picked up on Prospect
street on the charge of lettering. When
searched number of trinkets were found
in his pockets. These were identified by Mr.
Carpenter as articles stolen from his house
on Christmas night. The additional charge
Of grand larceny was then placed against
Brown. After the man had been sent back
to Jail he sent for the detectives and inti-
mated that if it was made worth his while
he would make a confession and tip off
to the police where the remainder of the
stolen goods were. Pie agreed to plead
guilty to the charge of petit larceny and
promised, if his sentence was limited to a
period of from one to three years, he would
talk" Brown was brought into court yes
of hrf ina {.sIIt x,,I,,
the goods were secreted until his sentence
had been entered OIL the docket. States At
torney Wiltsie refused to agree to this prop
osition. He insisted the prisoner first give
the police his Information and then the
sentence would be made a matter of record.
After long Npariey Brown consented to
this, but first asked that Hilton L. Brown,
by whom he was formerly employed, be
sent for. Mr. Brown came and with the de-
tectives had a talk with the prisoner. The
young man then told Detective Thornton
where the stolen articles could be found.
The detective was hardly prepared for the
disclosure. The prisoner told him the stuff
would be found in the safety vault at
Fletcher's Bank, where he himself had
placed it. 1t was then too late to ascer-
tain whether or not the mans statement
was true, as it was past the banks clos
ing hour. However. Detective Thornton ex-
pressed himself as satisfied the valuables
would be found in the safety vault. 1t was
suggested that the court reserve sentence
until this morning when Browns story will
be investigated.
While employed by Hilton u. Brown the
accused man was arrested on the charge
Of forging his employers name to a check,
and he was convicted and sent to prison.
The detectives think he is guilty of several
robberies that have lately occurred on the
South Side

Unless the Canadian Pacific alters the at
titude ii has assumed toward the Western
roads in the matter of Alaska rates il is
possible that there will be a concerted
movement among all the American roads
to ignore it entirely and to refuse to have
any further dealings with it in passenger
traffic. 1t has steadily refused to meet with
the American roads to discuss matters, and
simply reiterates its determination to pre-
serve its differentials on Alaska business
The meeting of the Western roads at Chi
cago, after a short session yesterday, sent
a message to the Canadian Pacific saying
that ii it was announcement for a repre-
sentative of the Canadian Pacific to come
to Chicago at the present time they would
be glad to have the Canadian Pacific name
a date ON which its representative could
meet a committee of the Western roads
either IN Montreal or New York. TO this a
reply was received after the adjournment
of the meeting to the effect that il would
70 meet the commit tee of the Western roads,
After the adjournment of the meeting rep
resentatives of the Western roads said they
felt that they had done all that lay in their
power to come to understanding with
the Canadian Pacific, but II that road
would not consent 70 meet and discuss mat
tiers with them there was nothing to do but
they were not thinking of doing this in a
belligerent spirit, but simply TO protect
themselves. The meeting to-day win take
up the matter and decide whf is best TO
be done. AS matters now stand there seems

The Chattanooga Case Decided.
In the case of the Interstate-commerce
Commission VS.. the East Tennessee, Vir-
ginia & Georgia Railroad Company and six
teen other roads, known as the "Chatta-
nooga case" United States Judge Severens
delivered his decision at Chattanooga yes
terday The decision was adverse to the
railroads, and a complete victory for the
commission and the city of Chattanooga
An order was issued requiring the rail-
roads to at once make Chattanooga rates
the same as those to Nashville. The Judge
held that the evidence showed that the in
tefstate-comlnerce act had been violated in
many ways, and that Chattanooga had been
grossly disseminated against. He called
particular attention to the fact that freight
could be shipped from New York to Nash
vile, l5l miles further than Chattanooga,
and then back to Chattanooga at a less rate
than 1t could be shipped direct The COM
plant involved in the case was first brought
before the Interstate-commerce Commits
sion by the Board of Trade of Chattanooga,
in 1880. 1t was decided in favor of the COM
plainants, and the courts were called on to
enforce the order of the commission. The
argument was conducted before Judge Sew
erens by A. H. Shaver of Washington, for
the commission, and Col. Ed Baxter, of
Nashville, fer the roads. The roads will
appeal.
