Verdict Ara,nst Railway.

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.--A verdict of peculiar interest in view of the many pending suits on account of the tunnel disaster has been rendered in the su- preme court by jury before Justice Mclean. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad appealed from a verdict of 5000 damages for the death of John Frounfelker, and the case was retried. Frounfelker was conductor. On Oct. 8, 1896, he was killed in rear end collision like that of last Wednes- day. His widow sued. A nine thou sand dollar verdict was given. The company appealed. The jury before Justice Mclean reversed the nine thou sand dollar verdict and found new one for S17.5OO.

K. Bear of this city and Carpenter E. A. Coleby of Galva, Kan. The men in the work car were still asleep and were buried under the debris, which caught fire and threatened to roast every one of them. The crew of the freight train and some citizens by strong efforts saved them. The injured are Brakeman Frank Hoop, Fireman James Caset and Engi- neer John Yeaton of the freight train and four men on the work train named Mitchell, Jackson, Burke and Potter. None of them is injured fatally. The cause of the wreck was the malicious breaking of switch lock and the throwing of the switch by some un' known person.

 New York, Jan 14.-Len Hurst of Edmonton, the champion long distance runner of England, and his brother Joe, have entered the coming six-day race, which will take place ill Madison Square Garden next month. The Hurst brothers were secured by Tom my Hall, the English cyclist, who left America three weeks ago to pick out q good team for the International championship race. Hall writes that Len Hurst is the best man in England to-day. He holds the worlds record for twenty-four hours, 160 miles. beat ing Charley Rowell's famous run, made i'll Madison Square Garden on November 1, 1880, by more than ten miles. The younger Hurst, who will team up with the champion, is goo.l man, and as the men will work in re- lays, they figure that such men as Golden, Tracey. Hagelman and the sixty other contestants never will be able to keep up the stiff gait that will be set by the fleet Englishmen. The Hurst brothers, accompanied by Tom my Hall and trainers, will leave Eng land for America this week.

F1TzsTMMoNs KEEPS QUIET.

Bob. FitzsimmOns maintained his sphynx-like silence yesterday in regard to Jim Jeffries's latest offer. The fact that the champion is willing to waive side bets and ready to consider any proposition Fitz. may make to him did not cause the ex-champion to declare himself in any way. Fitzsimmons's friends say he is waiting to get di- rect offer from Jeffries, claiming that the champion announced before be came to New York that he would put a business proposition up to ritz that the latter would have to accept or else. acknowledge that Jeffries's champion ship is without a flaw. It is more than likely that there will be a meeting be- tween Jeffries and Fitzsimmons in q few days. Both will attend tue Shar- key-Maher bout in Philadelphia next Friday night, and 1t will then be easy for Jim Kennedy or some other mutual friend to bring them togetlier friends of both men are confident a personal talk between Jeff and Fitz will result in match being made.

h d. Sc verdi
 years ago the city at the mouth of the Black river had one of the best ski clubs in the country. Tournaments were held at Red Wing and other places in Minnesota and Wisconsin and the La Crosse Norwegians skilled in the use of their native snow shoe car- ried off the prizes.
 Many of the best runners of the clubs in the Mississippi river towns have become. indifferent over the sport or else they have moved away to places where the topograp phical features are not so good for real tests of ski run ming. The hills in the vicinity of the towns along the river are admirably adapted to ski sport Hans Amund- son and s. Boreson, we'll remembered by La Crosse people, were good ski men. They went to the Klondike, where the Indian snow shoe is a neces- sity, and doubtless got all of the exer- else on the snow and ice that they de- sired. Louis Thoreson, whose running was excelled by but few ski runners, is dead HemmestevAt, who held the highest record of the northwest, can no longer be counted in the list of run ners because of an injury received in contest. But the young men have not forgotten their prowess on the long runners and the indication are that before the winter is over the merry sports of the Norsemen will af- ford th9usands of native born Amer jeans much pleasure and excitement. Ski running fires the blood. It is just dangerous enough to hold the partici- pants enthusiasm and attract the at- tention of spectators.

A NEW DEPARTMENT.
Bill to Establish Commerce Secretary
 ship Considered.


 Bill to Establish Commerce Secretary
 ship Considered.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. IA. = Tn the senate yesterday Mir. Nelson of Mime sota called up the bill providing for the establishment of a department of commerce. He explained the necessity which, he said, existed for the passage of such measure and was piled with questions by several senators, who said that sufficient time had not been all lowed for looking into the merits or the measure.
 MT. Teller criticised that feature re- latiDg to the transfer of the geological survey, while MT. Hale said that the bill provided for a department which ultimately would be one of the largest in the government. The bill finally went over, subject to call by MT. Nel- son. The senate was in executive ses- sion for an hour and half.
 The house of representatives spent the day in general discussion of the pension appropriation bill, the first of the annual budgets. The debate took a wide range. Mir. Grosvenor of Ohio duU Mf I1epDuIu O1 IOWd oChOuaS~S~ report presented to the last G. A. k. encampment criticising the course or themselves and other members of con- gress on the veteran preference" bill, which was defeated at the last session. They explained that their opposition to the bill was due to the incorporation in the bill of a clause which had not beeu indorsed by the G. A. R. placing veterans of the Spanish war in the pref ! erential class. MT. Rixey of Virginia caused something of a stir on the Dem- ocratic side by advancing proposition to open the doors of national soldiers homes to x-Confederates and to fur nish government aid to state Confeder- ate homes.
 : Mir. Richardson of Alabama was the only Democrat who joined Mir. Rixey in support of it.
 Hearings on the antioleomargarine bills were begun by the house commit tee on agriculture. The bills under con. sideration are similar to the so called Grout bill and place tax of 10 cents per pound on substances colored to i'm itate butter.
 The Hepburn Nicaragua canal bill was received by the senate from the house and referred to the committee on interoceanic canals.
