little group of two women, two-year-
old child, and horse, which lay dead
in the road between the broken shafts
of buggy.
The women were Mrs. Charles Rho
denberger and mother, Mrs. McCaman,
who reside one and one-half miles
from this city. They had driven to
town and hitched their horse ON Fourth
st. when the steam roller used in the
street paving, came putting and
steamlng up Tuscarawas ave. The
horse was nervous and Mrs. Rhoden-
berger stood by his side. soothing and
petting him until the roller had pass
ed, and thinking all was safe turned
to leave, when the horse reared fran
tically, breaking the buggy shafts and
fell backwards on the iron hitchine
rail and within five minutes was
dead. The horse was a pretty sorrel,
worth about 500.

committee to consider. Moreover, said MIR.

Washington, January 16. An interesting

the advocates Of tho French Panama canal
scheme developed at the meeting Of the
sthmian canal commission this morning
II is wen known that a large block of the
Panama railroad stock Is held by American
most Of whom are residents Of New York
II now develops that several Of these gen
tlemcn have given notice OF their refusal
to part with their stock or to agree to the
proposed sale OF the property.
The situation of these stockholders under
the peculiar construction Of the French law
is such that their acQucsencc In the sale
and their actual signatures TO the transfer
arc absolutely necessary to pass perfect
title to the United States. This, 1t is said
is the first direct evidence produced Of the
inability Of the Frcnchmcn to give a clenr
sound title to their property as they have
no control over the action or American
