SIGNS THE BILL.
Mayor Low Grants Pennsylvania
Road Perpetual Franchise.

New York, March 26.-Mayor Low ac-
cepted today on behalf of the city the
so-called Pennsylvania railroad tunnel
perpetual franchise bill, and in doing
so he brought himself into direct con-
fict with the rapid transit commission,
of which he is a member ex officiO.
Further than that he was accused by
the interests behind the Rapid Transit
Subway Construction company of act
ing in bad faith. 1t is asserted by the
men at the back of this company, and
their statements are not denied by rep
resentatives of the rapid transit COM
mission. that the mayor on Saturday
last led them to believe that he would
veto the Kelsey bill and would at the
same time send a communication to
the governor urging him to send an
emergency message to the legislature
with such amendment of section 80 of
the rapid transit act as would leave to
the commission instead of to the alder
men and the board of estimates entire
control of authorizing the building of
new tunnel railroads in this city. and
that this would suit the Pennsylvania
railroad men.
This information was made public on
Saturday afternoon after the mayor
had conferred at the offices of the
commission with President Alexander
X Orr and Edward NJ Shepard and
Albert b Boardman, counsel of the
commission There We're no repreSen-
tatives of the Pennsylvania at that
meeting, but on Sunday President A

road. and John 9. johnson. chief coun-

has arisen in the mysterious murder of
Mrs Voepel, the newspaper vender,
which occurred several weeks ago in
her little fiat on the East side. Mrs.

a gold watch and chain pawned by the
murdered woman.

pawn ticket issued to Mrs. Voepel and.
bearing the dead woman's name. The

lice arrived.

GIVES HALF RATE.
President Ripley Helps Albuquerque
Ship Trees For Public Parks.

Albuquerque, N. NJ, March 26.-Mayor
o. n. Marion yesterday received a let
ter from President E. P. Ripley of the
Santa Fe in response to inquiry as to
what the road would do in the matter
of transportation for trees to be used
in the public parks of Albuquerque Mr..
Ripley stated that while the road could
not discriminate in favor of Albuquer-
que as against other towns or in other
words grant an open rate for the freight
on the trees, it would be willing to
grant a half rate on such freight from
any point on the Santa Fe lines. 1t is
probable that a car load of Missouri
shade trees will he purchased to be used
in city parks and any that remain will
be sold to the citizens at cost.

the house of delegates, on the charge

tions, Stock said that he was employed

get it's franchise bill through the mu-
nicipal assembly. Stock said that Feb
ruary 2, 1901 he and Charles Kratz. a
member of the municipal assembly,
called together on Meysenburg and
Kratz told Stock that Meysenburg was
sore" because the Kinloch telephone
company had frozen him out of the
st. Louis Construction company. Mey-
senburg, the witness said, had 200
shares of the stock of the latter COM
pany, and said he wanted to get value
received. The witness testified that he
said that he would buy the stock for
the Suburban, though it was of no
value. and he would pay $4,000 for it,
which he did. Meysenburg, he said,
remarked that he did not take the
money to bind him in working for the
