THE COAL DOCKS.

The coal docks on the G. * n w pro-
perty have been leased to the G. Reiss
Coal company of Sheboygan. The mat
ter of leasing these coal docks has been
kept in abeyance for some time. Some
weeks ago the prospect of their going to
the Reiss company was bright. Posses
sion was taken on August /, one OF the
firm being in the city on that day.
The Reiss Coal company is one OF the
heaviest handlers of coal i'll the north
west 1t began in small way but has
built up a large business. 1t has large
interests and contributes perhaps, more
to the prosperity of Sheboygan than any
other business concern there. 1t was
this company which agreed to build an
elevator for Sheboygan i'll the interest of
its coal docks, securing return freight for
its coalers.
The operation of the coal docks at this
place to their fullest capacity will be as
sured under the management OF this com
pany as lUS business lSeNcluSlVely WHole
sale.
Mr. Reiss was expected in the city yes
terday but for some reason did not ar
rive An officer of the Adams Coal com
pany, which operates the Wisconsin Cen
trail docks was in the city. 1t is thought
that arrangements will be made where
by the two companies will be mutually
helpful in filing orders. The Visions n
&c ltral coal docks are well filled with
soft coal and shipments are being made
regularly. There are few coal companies
ON the lakes in equally good condition SC
far as having a supply ON hand is con-
cerned. Freights are now soc. and the
price of hard coal has advanced.

AN OLD RELIC.

Jacob Roemer. senior member OF the
Rand & Roener Hardware company. Is
the possessor of a razor blade owned by
the celebrated missionary Pere Mar
quette whose explorations in this coun-
try are historical and of local interest TO
us The razor was the property of Mr.
Roemers grandfather, John Roemer
who was soldier in the Napoleonic wars
on the side of France, Mr.. Roemer was
with the immense army which invaded
Russia under the Great Napoleon and
was one of the comparatively few who
returned safely after the burning of Mos
cow. The razor blade was used by Ma
poleon and it bears his initials, \. b.
with crown engraved beneath them
The razor in its present shape has no
handle simply the blade being left.
Mr. Roemer is unable to state accu-
rately how the relic came into possession
of his grandfather, but has with it lot
of memoranda which he thinks explains
the matter though he has not examined
them
The relic is valuable one in view of
its having been owned by two men fam

AN IMPORTANT DECREE.

A very important decree was entered
in the County court for this county on
Tuesday 1t was decree determining tt e
descent of and heirship to the property
in this county of R. l.. Allen. There was
no administration in this county of the
estate of R. c. Allen. though the heirs
owned a great amount of real estate here,
much of which has been sold. Mr.. S. A.
Wood has been the agent of Hinkley q
Allen here ever since 1852. Those who
know the old gentleman know how me-
thodical he is and know that everything
he does has the stampof honesty. Though
title to all the lands is good, the enter
ing of the decree puts it beyond question.
There is property affected to the extent
of $50 descriptions, of which there is now
"a complete chain of title on record here
There are many people in the city who
hold property purchased from Hinkley

THE fight over the Hampton case
opened promptly at 8 this morning 1t
was on permitting the Albright aft
davit being filed. In addition the
defense wished to procure an affidavit
from a travelling man named Strathman
who put up at the Northwestern House
while the jury was quartered there and
who it is claimed could give some testi-
mony showing that undue liberty was
allowed them. Time was asked to pro-
cure his affidavit, the defense claiming
they have as yet been unable to locate
him. The argument up 10 10 was on
these points and it was somewhat warm

TROUBLE AHEAD.
Pittsburg Getting into Mix over the
Reception to the Tenth.

The path of Pittsburg in prepar-
inc for the reception Of the Tenth
regiment is full of thorns. The city
has called on the smaller towns that
are the homes of the various compa
MES to help pay the expenses of the
reception in the Smoky City As
each of the towns is also arranging
some kind of celebration for the
heroes when they reach home they
do not feel able to help Pittsburg
very literally.
In some OF them the newspapers
are calling on the people to give
nothing to the city but to give what
they can to the local committees.
The city is getting desperate and the
affair will have to weather a number
of storms before it is a success even
after it has gotten this far on the
way The friends Of the men ia the
regiment want them to come straight
home and are pretty hot that they
are asked to stay over day in
Pittsburg before their return after
they hare been away for so long and
exposed to so many dangers.
However there will be some kind
of celebration in the city and
thousands of people will be attract
ed to witness it. A great many will
go down from this place to see the
affair.

RAILROAD MATTERS.
New Road from Brownsville to
Wheeling Assured.

The Extension OF the Road up the West
Side aud its Present Status-We are
More Interested In That Than In the
Other What is Said about 1t in the
Inteliigencer.
The extension of the railroad from
Brownsville to this place while anx-
iously awaited does not seem TO be
cutting much ice these warm days.
The people who are back of the plan
are certain that it will come but
what we want to know is when it
will get here so that we won't be too
greatly surprised when we see it.
However there is another railroad
to be built from that place that is
taking up large share of their at
tention and that is one from Browns
vile to Wheeling through one of
the richest mineral sections of Penn
sylvania This road is expected to
be begun before very long as it has
very strong backing TO help it along.
The Wheeling Intelligencer of a
on this road and it seemed to think
that the extension would be made
in the very near future. LII the
same article reference was made to
the one in which this place was SO
vitality interested The reference
was as follows:
Since the trouble arose over the
right of way for the extension of the
Pittsburg, Virginia & Charleston
from Brownsville nothing further
has been done with the work. It Is
expected that work will be resumed
soon and the route to be followed is
up the west side of the Monongahe-
la river to Millsboro, where the road
will cross TO the Fayette county side
and run to the mouth of the Dun
kirk creek, reerossing TO the Wash
ington side. Meantime there are
prospects that branch will be
built up Dunlap creek to West Sa-
lem to tap the coal fields there. OPP
tons have been taken on several
properties, according to report from
Brownsville, TO run thirty days, and
it is thought that they will be ac-
copied and the road built.
We hope that this view OF the
ease is correct but it is certain that
when company gets thoroughly
in earnest about extending route
they do not stand back very long
because they have had trouble with
some Of the parties who own rights
of way. II they want to bring the
extension up there they will attend
to that part of it even If there are
people who want TO obstruct them
and give them trouble And we
think that they want to get here.
