mainly upon the evidence OF a pair OF
gold sleeve buttons which Hanson had
given TO a woman in Philadelphia. Nc
Laughlin's health failed while he was
in prison, and he was pardonld by
Pres dent Harrison, and returned home
to die.
The detectives say Hanson is an ex-

of Mansfield the tramps came into tho
car occupied by Myers and began quar-
reling with him. They threw Meyers
down and beat him. after which they
threw him and his umbrella repair
ing kit of the moving train. Meyers
was lying beside the track unable to
help himself and when the westboupd
Erie local freight train came along he
hailed 1t. The train stopped and the
crew took the injured man on board
and carried him to Mansfield. His left
eye was nearly closed and the side Of
his face smashed. He was also other

Cleveland, April e.-The Leader

in effect as follows:
The recent efforts Of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad to obtain control of
Wheeling and Lake Erie by buying
heavily Of the stock in the open mar
ket, brings out the fact that the con-
trolling interest in the property is
owned jointly by George Gould ana
Colonel Myron T. Herrick. This
makes the Wheeling and Lake Erie
an essential part Of the Wabash sys-
tenn, assuring 1t an entrance into
Pittsburg, and money enough to
build the much-talked-of extension
into the West Virginia coal fields. It
is also known that the Wheeling and
Lake Erie is to be a part of the
Southwestern system Of the Goulds,
being an extension of the Wabash
and feeder from the coal fields,
which 1t traverses, and the Pittsburg
steel mills for all the southwestern
lines which Gould controls.

same number OF soldiers at Sian Flu,
but it was probable that the troops
of Tung Flu Sian are better drilled
and better armed.
II was believed that the Mongolian
rebellion was brought about through
agents of Prince Tuan and General
Tung Flu Sian. Ii Hung Chang
