Partnership Dispute.

Harold E. Knudsen has entered suit
against G.. c. Herbert and T. NJ. Her
bert, doing business with the plaintiff
as co-partners as the Salt Lake Por-
trait company, praying for dissolu-
ton of the partnership and the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the bust
ness.
The plaintiff alleges that in Novem-
Der, 1891 the defendants fraudulently
induced him to sign a promissory iote
for $500, secured by a mortgage on Chi
cago real estate, in consideration of
which he was to become a partner in
the business. He then alleges that the
defendants represented that their stock
and bills receivable was worth $1,000
over and above all liabilities, and that
they only owed $3.50, all told, whereas,
the plaintiff alleges the fact to be that
their stock and bills receivable only
amounted to $1,000, and that their in
debtedness exceeded that sum. The
defendants since then, the plaintiff al
leges, have kept the books of the con-
Germ and refused to give any account
ing to the plaintiff, and further. that
since the plaintiff became a partner the
defendants have appropriated to their
own use $1,000 of the firms money.

Upon coming to the alley in the rear of
the Wey hotel, the man leape6 out and
seized her with criminal intent, where

lier'

Wey was aroused at the calls for help,
and shouted to the man, who became
frightened and ran away. The girl
was taken to the house where her
mother lives, and was so Frustrated
that she could scarcely speak. The po-
lice department was Immediately noti-
fed, and Sergeant Burbidge, Policeman
Roberts, Hempel and Simpson took up
the case with great earnestness, and
before o'clock they had Bray under

Bray stoutly affirms his innocence, and

Pevton Pleads Not Guilty.

Frank Peyton, the young man who is
charged with embeZzlement in connec-
ton with the robbery of the European
restaurant, which took place some time
ago, was arraigned before Justice Nc
Master and entered a plea of not
guilty. His bond was placed at $500
pending the preliminary hearing. The
procedure against Peyton is somewhat
unusual. He was first charged with
grand larceny, and after preliminary
hearing was held for trial in the dis
trict court on that charge. Then the
prosecution wanted to change the ac-
cusation to embezzlement and Louis
Berets, proprietor of the restaurant
swore to a complaint charging embez-
Element, and Peyton had preliminary
hearing before Justice Sommer who.
thinking the evidence was not sufficient,
declined To hold the defendant The
prosecution, however, thinks they have
evidence enough to convict Peyton, and
filed another complaint before Justice
McMaster, charging embezzlement, and
on that count Peyton was arraigned

B. & o. People Trying to Conceal Real
Plans.

Baltimore, Nd, Sept. 20.-Receiver
John Y. Cowen arrived in Baltimore
from Chicago early this morning. He
said:
1T is true that a very large interest
in the Baltimore & Ohio has been pur-
chased by Messrs. Field, Hill. Ream
and Armour, as we'll as other infiuen-
tial interests. Their purchase of the
stock does not mean any railroad COM
bination. It does not mean a trans
continental system in connection with
the Great Northern. What it does
mean is the fullest development of the
Baltimore 3 Ohio railroad. The road
will not be tied to any road in the
northwest, but will continue to deal
with all roads, and take business wher-
ever it is found. The policy of better
ment will be carried out, and the max
imum traffic aimed after by providing
the best facilities for handling the bust
ness
The answers of the Mercantile Trust
company, ]. P. Morgan & Co., and other
New York capitalists interested in the
reorganization of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad to the petition of Johns HoD-
kins university, the state of Maryland
and others seeking to, defeat the reor-
ganization plan, was filed this morning
in the United States circuit couf The
answer contains denial of the allega-
lions in the petition mentioned.

San Francisco.

San Francisco, Sept. 20.-Articles of
incorporation of the Los Angeles Rail
way com9any were filed today. The

duct a. railway of the standard guage in
California, Ito be constructed from d
point of connection with the railroad of
the San Francisco & San Joaquin Val
ley railway. in the town of Bakersfield,
county of Kern; thence by a practica BILE
route, where such proposed railroad
shall connect with the present con-
structed line of railroad of the South
ern California Railway company, in the
vicinity of Los Angeles
The road will be nearly 200 miles in
length, and will be in operation in two
years. It's completion will give south
ern California it's first competing rail-
road, the Southern Pacific having had
the monopoly of the business.
The new road will connect with the
San. Francisco & San Joaquin Valley
railroad, thus giving San Francisco an
other tTanscontinental road, the South
ern Pacific up to this time having the
monopoly of southern California bust

liceman Davies yesterday morning for
plying the pedals on the south side

Temple and First West. Murphy ex-
planned that he had been out of town

The New Evil of Tea-smoking.

Physicians in various parts of the
country report an alarming growth of
smoking. The habit is contracted
by those whose nerves are disordered,
who can't sleep, whose digestion is i'm
perfect, whose liver is out of order,
who get the blues and feel their
strength departing. 1t seems strange
that sufferers from the above disor-
ders should not cure themselves with
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This is a
medicine which whets up the appetite
regulates the bowels steadies the
nerves and induces sound sleep. Those
who take it find that it cures dyspep-
STA, and there is no bad taste in the
mouth in the morning, no feeling of
weakness after the days work is done
II is well worth a trial

Inflammation of the brain, and lapses
