RAILWAY BUILDING.

According to the Railway Age, this
ing. 1t is estimated that not less than
5000 miles will be built before Christ
mas, representing an investment of
over $15O, 900, 900.
Right now there are over 1000 miles
either under contract or in process of
construction. The Age adds: There
will also be large mileage added in
the Pacific states this year, work being
in progress on over 900 miles at the
present time
Statistics of the new railroad built
in 1898 show a total of 3,OS26 miles of
track laid on 236 roads in forty-six
states and territories 1t will be al
most doubled this year.
One incentive to this increased activ-
ity in railroad building is found in the
reports of business done by the various
roads. Statistics for 100 lines operat-
ing 1S1, 1888 miles of railroad show that,
for 1898, the gross earnings We're ST.

taxes, etc, and s65.995,9l5 was distrib-
uted in dividends, leaving a surplus of

Railroad building is not only great
business of itself, but it opens up new
country. develops the section it ira

sides the employment that established
roads give to operatives, thousands of
laboring men are employed in the con-
struction of new ones.

Town Marshal John Pope of Vernal is
reported by the Tribune's correspond
ent in that town as denying the truth
of an interview with him pointed in The
Herald, relative to Judge Dusenberrys
conduct while holding court there. Mr..
Pope volunteered precisely what was
attributed to him in that interview, and
any statement to the contrary is sim
ply a falsehood. Judging from the
Tribunes unveracious and malicious
VerI1al news service during the past
three months, Mr.. Pope is merely the
last victim of the Tribune's Vernal liar.

ILOILO.
Boston Journal.)

From every point the question comes
How to pronounce the name
Iloilo: from no two folks
Is the answer quite the same.
One critic, with knowing look,
Who slowly shook his head,
Refused to be corrected.
And "eyelow-eyelow' said.
"Oh. no. another sage replied;
That cannot be the way,
For L am posted on this point,
And 'eelow-eelow' say"
Another said: my friend. I see
You're in a sort of plight;
Just call it 'eelow-eyelow,'
Then you're sure to have it right"
''Well. I'm surprised" replied a man,
THAT none of you should know
That 'eyelow-eelow' is the way,
A Spaniard told me So"
So when | chance to read aloud
I've got a plan down pat,
When that word comes l give a sneeze
And let her go at that.

Surpass All Previous Ordnance IN
Accuracy and Swiftness.
New York, July IA new rapid.
fire gun designed for the protection
of mine fields and o novel semi-auto-
mntic six-pounder for the navy have
been successfully tested on the prov
ing grounds of the Driggs-seabury
Gun and Ammunition company at
Derby, Conn, These guns were built
for the army and navy respectively
under contracts awarded at the Begin
ming of the war with Spain and will
probably play an important part in
the plan and scope of national de-
Tense. The army gun is a siX-pounder
of the briggs type and is mounted
upon n parapet carriage, which adj
mits OF the piece being fired with the
same rapidity as upon n naval mount,
while it can be easily transported
from place to place. In fact, the new
wenpon Is a combination of a field
and coast defense gun. It's S will
be principally to protect the torpe-
does in the harbors by throwing such
an overwhelming shower of shot and
shell that no small boat could live
within its zone of fire.
The semi-automatic gun is also a
six-ponndcr and is expected to work
a revolution in rapid-ire guns, for,
with it a speed of sixty shots per min
ute was attained, which is twice the
record by the six-poundcr when
worked by hand. Another important
feature is that it reduces Il crew of
4 six-pounder from four to two men,
one of whom throws fixed nmmuni-
ton as a person throws coal into q
furnace, while the other fires as the
breech block closes automatically.

Columbus, o., July 11.-AIl but one
OF the seven members of the family of

killed, and the remaining one was
badly injured, by q Big Four passenger
train yesterday afternoon. The dead:
WILLIAM BERNHARD, age Al,

WILLIAM BERNHARD, aged IA.
ARTHUR REINHARD, aged o.
KARL REINHARD, aged 2.
EDWARD RE1NHARD, aged s.
Injured:
Clarence Reinhard, aged IA, collar
bone broken.
The accident occurred at the Wood
ward venue crossing of the Big -Four
railroad and opposite the southwest
entrance to the state fair grounds. Mr..
and Mrs. Reinhard and their five chill
dren, who reside ut ESQ Donaldson
street, were out for. an afternoon drive
in a surrey. They approached the
railroad crossing from the east, arriv-
ing at that point just as the west
bound passenger train, arriving here
ut 3:15 p. m, was due. An eye witness
of the accident said he saw the surrey
crossing the tracks, and at the same
instant it was struck by the train.
The vehicle was knocked into splinters
and Mr.. and Mrs. Reinhard and Arthur
and Karl We're killed outright. Ed
ward and William We're so badly in
jured that they died after being re-
moved to hospital. Clarence sus-
tanned a fractured collar bone and
other lesser injuries, but it is believed
he will recover. The horse which was
attached to the surrey was literally
ground to pieces. The crossing has
long been regarded a dangerous one,
the view of incoming trains being OBJ
scured by n high fence around the fair
grounds. The train was running at a
high speed.

Washington, July 12.-Greatly az
the officials regret it, information re-
ceived by Secretary Hay from Ambas-
sador Choate,seads to the opinion that
Mrs. Maybrick will have to remain in
prison for the murder of her husband
in 1889.
Failing in the present effort to sc.
cnre the woman's release it is au-
tlioritatively stated that the present
administration will do nothing fur
ther7to obtain her freedom.
Ambassador Choate has been doing
everything in his power to cause fa-
yorable action by the British govern
ment upon the request that Mrs. May
brick be liberated, He has found the
higher officials favorable to compile
ance with the request, but the under
permanent officials seem to be of the
opinion that the end of British JUS
tice have not yet been served. If Mrs.
MaNbrick should be compelled to
serve out her sentence she will not be
set free until 1909. She will begin
the eleventh year of her Imprisonment
in a few days. and it had been hoped
by the authorities that her release
would then be granted, but they now
seem to have lost hope.
