Mayor Tom johnson of Cleveland,
has again declined the gubernatorial
nomination of Ohio. He has also de-
clined senatorial and presidential
nomination. Would it not be in better
taste for him to wait until some of
these nominations are really offered
before he declines them. Possibly
when up against the real thing he
would not be so free in declining. That
is often the case.

WANTS RIGHT Of NAY.|
Milwaukee Road Ready to Make
a Move.
Council and City Officials Go Over the
Ground This Forenoon.
Meeting Tonight.

Tuesday forenoon the mayor, council,
city engineer, president of the board of
public works and the city attorney
accompanied Right of Way Agent He
| witt and Local Agent j. G. Moore OF
| the Milwaukee road over the route
which that road has selected to con-
meet with the Chicago Great Western
and get out of the city. The Milwau-
kee road desires to have permission to
cross the necessary streets and alleys
and public grounds granted it at the
meeting of the council Friday night,
and has drawn up an ordinance for the
purpose. Mr.. Hewitt arrived in the
city yesterday to secure the necessary
concessions from the city.
The Milwaukee road proposes to use
it's present track as far north as Plum
street, where the extension will branch
off and make an absolutely straight
shoot along the edge of the river bank.
The line will pass west of the city pump
ing station, leaving a twenty-five foot
space between. 1t will cross two lots
owned by the city, cutting off corner
of the city tool house, half block
south~-of the pumping station. Near
the stock yards, it will be necessary to
do little filling along the edge of the
bank The extension ends in barn
yard near Spring street.
The supposition is that the Great
Western will extend south block or
two to connect with the Milwaukee
extension, thus giving one road way
out of the city and the other way in.
Some of the aldermen, notably Aids.
Leonard and Wilcox, raised the point
that the proposed extension of the
Milwaukee track would cut off any
chance of another road getting through
the city. Engineer Thompson said that
the Omaha trains, a hundred feet
away, jar the city pumps, and he fear
ed that Milwaukee trains only one
fourth as far away would jar the en-
gines much more.
The Milwaukee road, since it pur-
chased several lots from the Chicago
& North Western road, claims that
other roads are shut off from coming
into the city as much as they would
be were the proposed extension made.
The aldermen will hold an informal
meeting tonight to talk over the mat
ter, preliminary to taking formal &C
tion tomorrow night.
The Milwaukee road has purchased
the right of way from Pennington
the Montgomery, and will push the
work along on this side of Mont
gomery. Those who are in position
to know say that the road will surely
build the extension this summer.

APPLICATIONS DENIED.
Committee on Claims and Accounts will
Not Abate Special Assessments.

The council committee on claims and
accounts decided to report unfavorably
upon all the applications for relief
from the payment of special assess
ments. 1t takes the ground that there
is doubt whether the council has a
right to make any change in the as
sessments, as the property owners had
an opportunity to protest to the board
OF public works when the assessments
were levied, had they considered that
an injustice was being done. The
committee feels that while there NAV
be meritorious cases in the list, il
would result in great deal of trouble
if precedent was made by changing
the assessment even in a single case.
Other people who didn't want to pay
their assessments would ask the same
relief and the council would not know
where TO draw the line.

Miscreants and Saves Express.
Ten minutes before the Philadelphia
express on the Philadelphia and Reading
hallway reached Big Mountain signal
cabin, one mile east of Shamokin, Pa,
the other night, two well-dressed stran-
gers entered the office and by ruse sue
ceeded in drugging the telegraph opera
tor, Lawrence Hannah, and Thomas
Horan, who was with him. Hannah grew
dizzy and felt his senses leaving. He
saw one of the strangers working a
switch, and at the same moment heard
the whistle of the coming express. The
other stranger stood in the doorway.
Hannah threw himself on the man at the
lever pushed him to the door, and the
two robbers went out as the express
Numbered past in safety. Hannah stag
gered to the telegraph key. His brain
reeled, but he managed to tell the Sha-
mokin office that the express had come
and gone in safety. Then he set the dan
ger signal for all trains and lost con-
seriousness. Half-naked and almost dead,
he and Koran were found in the signal
cabin by trainmen.

Dr. Mills had not returned when the
end came. The only person in the room
at the time was Hazen s. Pingree, DR.,
who had been constantly at his fathers
bedside and had not removed his clothes
for four days. At 11:30 he noticed an
apparent change in his fathers condition
and drawing closer soon observed that
the heart had ceased to do its work.
Death had come silently and without spe-
cial warning. The once vigorous and ag-
gressive American passed away peace
fully and without a word to friend or
foe
Upon the death of his father FL. S.
Pingree, Jr., cabled at once to his moth
er and uncle, who were about to sail from
New York, not to do so. The body will
be embamed and sent to Detroit.
DIR. Mills, in speaking of the condl-
ton of his distinguished patient shortly
before his death, said: ut seems too bad
that the serious nature of his ailment
was not discovered earlier. He ought
never to have been allowed to travel on
the continent. Mr.. Pingree is receiving
every care and is making gallant fight,
but the liberation of the stomach is only
one symptom of the complicated disease
Business and Political Career.
Hazen S. Pingree was born at Den
mark, Me-, Aug. 30, 1910. He spent the
first fourteen years of his life on his
fathers farm. He then went to work
in a cotton factory at Saco, Me. He
afterward learned his trade as a shoe
cutter at factory in Hopkinton, Mass.
When the Civil War broke out Mr.. Pin
gree enlisted in the First Massachusetts
Heavy Artillery. He served from Aug.
/, 1862, till August, 1865. During 1864
he was for FIVE months prisoner of war.
worked at his trade in a shoe factory In
that place until 1866 when, with H.
Smith, he established a very small shoe
factory of his own. The partnership
was eminently successful and the factory
developed into the largest shoe manufac-
turing business in the West.
Mr.. Pingree was Mayor of Detroit four
times, serving in that capacity from 1889
to 1896. During the mayoralty he attain
ed prominence by his successful project
of securing vacant lots for the cultivation
of potato patches for the poor, and also
by his fights against street railway and
other combinations. He compelled the
Detroit street railways to reduce fares
to 8 cents
He was elected Governor Of Michigan
In 1896 and was reelected in 1898. At
the end of his term he retired to private
life.
