HIS THIRD REPORT.
Referee Ross Awards A. z. Betterly
DAMAGES in Sum Of $1,617.

Attorney j. Elliott Ross yesterday
filed his third report as referee in the
case of A. L. Betterly against the city
of Scranton, awarding damages in the
sum of S1611 to the plaintiff.
Mr.. Betterly owns a property at 141
Bromley avenue, where he resides. In
1887 and 1883 the city constructed a
sewer on Bromley avenue, between
Jackson and Washburn streets, with
which Betterly connected his property.
Then came mine cave in 1890, which
caused the sewer to break and the
sewerage flooded into Betterly's Gel
lar.
A man-hole in front of his property
was also broken and settled, and
around this cess-pOo formed, the
sewerage percolating from it into his
cellar. This resulted in injury to the
property and sickness among the MEM
bers of the Betterly family.
The referee believes that Betterly was
injured to the extent of s1,617, and di-
rects judgment for him in that amount

For n week past Mr.. Schalk- Burger

at Rhenoster Kop. north of Baimoral,
where they have been closely pressed
by British columns. Dispatch riders
entered Balmoral Friday night and
notified the British of Mr.. Schalk- Bur-

1t is reported that the f;oer position
at Rhenos;er Kop had become almost
hopeless. and that Mr. Schalk- Burger
once narrowly escaped capture.
The news has been welcomed in Lon
don as pointing TO the possibility of
peace.
Some correspondence, which was
seized short time ago when Mr.
Steyn narrowly escaped capture,
proved that he and Mr.. Schalk- Burger
were anxious to conclude peace. No eX-
travasant hopes, however, are being
built on the outcome of the move

DENIES REPORTED SALE.

Railroad.

Denver. March 24.-The News this
morning says:
John Kcbler. manager of the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron Company, yester-
| day positively denied the report that
the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company.
or the individual members of that com
pany. purchased the Colorado X South
ern railroad. Mr.. Kebler returned Sat
urday from Il pleasure trip through the
Mediterranean, which consumed sew
eral months. On his way back he
stopped in New York and other east
ern cities and had personal interviews
with John W. Gates and other control
lers of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company, relative to the transactions
in Colorado Fuel and Iron Company
and Colorado X Southern stock.
You may say positively said MIR.
Kebler last night that the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company has absolutely
no interest in Colorado X Southern.
Our interests with that system are
friendly. as they are with every road
in the West. l will state positively
that we have absolutely no control or
interest as company nor as members
of the company in the Colorado *
Southern. Reports that John w. Gates
or any other person connected with she
Colorado Fuel and Iron had a control
in the road, are unfounded. Paul Nor
ton of the Santa Fe Is credited with
saying that Gates and his associates
secured control of the Colorado X
Southern. Mr.. Morton said nothing of
the sort, and II any statement was
made il was that the road had passed
into the control of private parties.
Whether this is really true, l am not
able TO say"
Owing to the fact that the road has
no stock for sale and that all of the
reported heavy transactions are merely
in the shape of stock certificates, the
extreme movement of stock of the road
seems to be nothing more than clever
manipulation on the part of Wall street
operators. According to the market quo
tations the stock of the road is valued
at over SlS,OOO,0OO. which, with the
bond issue, would place II nearly to the
Sio,OOOGO mark. The present earnings
of the road, while gratifying, are alb
solutely out of the question ON the
stock quotation basis. On market quo
tations the common stock of the road
is valued at SS.6So.0OO: the first pre-
ferred is valued at Sc, 100000. and the
second at S3,G55.O0O. Together with
the bond issue the road will not be able
TO meet its fixed charges and revenue
on that valuation Tor at least ten years.
The reports that che sale of the control
of the road has actually been effeced
are, therefore, quit idle.
