Stewards Ysraclty Questioned.

In the Bennett.Stewart litigation
In district court Monday, an attempt
was made to impsach the oath OF John
I. Stewart. Jake Allen, Col. H. A.

The plaintiffs filed q motion in
court to set a'ide a personal Judgment
In foreclosure against them and In
favor Of the Equitable Securities Co.,
claiming the foreclosure proceedings
were irregular. James Lawrence, at

OF trust to the land, was charged with

PENDANTS 10 the foreclosure suit with
out authority, and 1t was while the
plaintiffs In the damage suit we're At

no authority to represent them that
Stewards veracity was called into

Lawrence, at Stewards suggestion, to
act Tor him.

The Burlington's New Trains

Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route, on the 1st of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magnifi-
Gently equipped as any in the
country that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vestibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route.
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of buffet
smohing-librarycar, palace sleep
ing-car, and two reclining-chair
cars. The butfet-smoking-library
car is something new for Denver
Chicago line. 1t is veritable
clubhouse on wheels, where one
may read, write, smoke, talk or
play cards, while travelling at the
rate OF fifty miles an hour. It is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ed. with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, lavatory, n writlng-desk,
a compartment for card-playcrs,
and well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers aro on file, and a carefully
selected library is provided for the
free use of passengers. The sleep
ing car is gem, and the chair
and dining-cars are in every way
worthy of the train of which they
form an important part.
The Burlington Route takes
palatial trains through to Omaha
and Chicago in marvcllously quick
time. Leaving Denver at $50
a. m. today on one of them you
are landed in Chicago at 2:l5 to-
morrow afternoon, there making
close connections with trains for
all points east. The running time
from Denver to Chicago is only
twenty-seven and three-quarter
hours. just how fast that is will
be best understood when it is
stated that it is almost five hours
faster than the fastest schedule
in effect prior to February 6, 1898.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-07-06

tween all points.
