The Commerce Road.

The information comes to uS from Il
reliable source that the Commerce
road, which has been looked forward
to with so much interest during the
past few months, will be completed
and in operation before winter. The
opening of this road means much for
our city, financially speaking and
otherwise. 1t will open to lis a terri
tory of invaluable worth to our mer-
chants and manufacturers: territory
which can be easily reached with reas-
enable freight charges, thereby giving
us an opportunity to cope with the St.
Louis and Chicago houses which now
hold the exclusive trade of that coun-
try. Long have we anxiously looked
forward to the completion of this road
and it has readily been seen by all who
might.give the subject thought that
its completion means a big boon to
the business interest of our city. And
now we have every reason to believe
that our hopes are to be realized, for
ere the winter months roll around the
shrill whistle of the engines on the
Commerce road will be heard and re
ceived with glad tidings.

THE CROGAN CASE.
Murderer of Louis De Montcourt is
Found Guilty and Gets Ninety
Nine Years.

A Caruthersville dispatch to yester-
days papers gave the following news:
The fate of Hezekiah Grogan, on
trial at Charlottesville. Mo-. for the
killing of Louis De Montcourt. closed
late this evening. The case went to
the jury at } O'Clock this afternoon.
The defence placed GrOgan on the
stand last evening ana be testified to
the alleged insult of De Montcourt to
his ttIrogan wife. The attorneys
occupied last evening. all this fore
noon and Il part of the afternoon with
their arguments. The verdict was
guilty of murder in the second degree.
and sentence ninety-nine years in the
penitentiary.
This case is finally settled and Gro
gan gets ninety nine wears in the pen
itentiary. Those who are familiar
with the circumstances OF the crime
committed by Grogan, believed that Il
ease of coidblooded. unprovoked
murder could be proven against him,
but it appears that the jury which
heard and consid red the evidence
found something in it which prevented
them from returning verdict OF mur-
der IN the first degree, in which event
the punishment would have been dealt,

man believed Groyan richly nerited.

\ Ticket Decision.

The Supreme Court OF Georgia has
handed down comprehensive Gecis-
ion on the right of a railroad 70 en-
pect passenger who refuses to pay
fare when the conductor rejects an ex-
pired ticket. and The passenger depart
meut of the southern Railway has
issued the full decision in pamphlet
form. Il is in the case of Watson vs..
the Southern Railway. The court
holds that carrier mas a legal right
to make reasonable regulations
for the conduct of its business: {:
that Il time limit is reasonable. as a
matter of law: and that where a road
makes provision for refunding the
purchase price of a ticket if it is un-
USED. or for refunding a fair amount
where a ticket is partly used. that
constitutes an additional measure of
