RAILROADS AT WAR.
Big Fight Over the Right of Way ut
Martins Ferry.

Wheeling, W. Va, Jan. 16.-The Wheel
ing and Lake Erie and Cleveland, Lo,ain
and Wheeling Railroads are engaged in a
right t-of-way war over the river at Mar
tins Ferry.
Last week the first round was fought
and resulted in the Wheeling and Lake
Erie getting in its switch in the disputed
territory and across the tracks of the
other road. This work was done in the
iIoad of, night. Since then the Wheeling
mas had an engine sIauuIus -
new track guarding its forcibly acquired
possession. Yesterday afternoon, how
ever, the engine was sent away for fresh
supply of water. and at once the Cleve-
land, Lorain and Wheeling got in its
work. First the other company's engine
was blocked from again establishing its
blockade. after which force of men tore
up the newly laid tracks of the Wheeling
and also established its own blockade at
the disputed point.
In addition a Wheeling and Lake Erie
car was shot over switch into the Ohio
River, which is now at a high stage. and
the car is entirely submerged. Two Cleve-
land, Lorain and Wheeling cars were de-
rallied and badly damaged

ANTI-SCALPING BILL.
Mr.. CuIlom Anxious to Secure Action
on the Measure.

Senator Cullom, chairman of the Senate
Committee on Interstate Commerce. has
practically recovered from the effects of
his recent fall upon slippery pavement
and expects to resume his legislative du-
ties this week. He is known 10 be most
anxious TO secure favorable action this
session on the bill commonly called the
anti-scalping bill.
Mr.. Cullom's committee reported last
session a measure that proposes to wipe
the brokers out of existence but the op-
ponents secured an understanding that il
should not be called up until the commit
tee reported the general amendments TO
the interstate commerce law, including
the proposed new section that will permit
the railroads to pool under proper Gov
ernment restrictions. Things have drag
ged along so that the committee has not
perfected the latter bill. The House pass
ed an anti-scalping bill. That is now ly-
ing on the table in the Senate, not hav-
ing been referred to the committee, as is
the prevailing custom. Mr.. Cullom does
not wish it referred to his committee. He
is anxious to move to adopt the House bill,
realizing that if it is referred Senators
Chandler Tillman and Chiffon may hag-
gle and prevent a report between now and
the 4th of March. Senator Tillman says
that there is d great deal of feeling over
this matter, and he appears to be posi-
tive that things are in such shape that
the bill cannot possibly pass the Senate
between now and the 4th of March
A lively fight is going on, and the
chances are that the debates within the
next two weeks will amply demonstrate
that fact.
