ciarkson Sworn In.

New York, April 26.-General j. S.
Clarkson, of Iowa, has taken the oath
OF office as surveyor of customs of the
port OF New York, before Collector
stranahan. Colonel Swords, deputy
collector, in charge of the public stores,
escorted him to the custom house, and
a son of the general and two friends
were also in the party. General Clark
sons bond for $4,000 will be sent to
Washington Immediately, and as soon
as it is accepted he will assume the
office.
Altho this appointment was purely
New York matter, and is in nowise
charged up against Iowa, still Senators
Allison and Dolliver for the sake OF
"Auld Lang Syne," earnestly and pow
erfully supported the president IN his
known desire to honor Mr.. Clarkson
and to return him to the public field
Postmaster General Payne did much
toward this program of recalling his
long time personal friend and CO.
worker on the republican national
committee to public life and actice poll
itics. Indeed many seantors and many
party leaders, once they understood
the presidents goodwill toward the
former Iowan, joined heartily in en-
dorsing and urging it.

AFTER THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL
Cedar Falls Will Bring Suit to compe
Running of Trains.

Cedar Falls, April 25.-This city may
have another railroad. The course
Of the Cedar Falls & Minnesota road
will be changed if the law will support
the actions now pending by the city
council.
At present the road does not come
within one mile Of the city limits and
trains stop only at Mona Junction.
The trains which were formerly backed
UP to this city are now run directly
to Waterloo. City Attorney MerneI
has the case in hand and has taker
1t up with the company and will en-
deavor to secure all the trains for this
stop or a change in the roadbed to
bring the main track directly to the
station here. If the company complies
with the wishes without a suit the city
will be saved some expense, but If not
it will be taken to the courts, as the
citizens are determined on what they
deem is justly their rights in the mat
ter The road was built by a company
organized mostly of Cedar Falls cap
italists in 1858. The articles of incor-
poration plainly states that the road
shall connect with the Illinois Central
at a point within the city limits The
parties owning the land over which
the road was to pass, however, asked
such q price that the road refused to

ing the duty al profit?" was asked
Yes, that is what l mean to say,
was the reply "There was a duty OF
about two cents per pound, which we
paid, and even that added to the trans
portation and storage charges did not
make necessary any increase in the
selling price over the American lamb
meat
Otehr meats from New Zealand could
be handled just as successfully in this
country, Mr. Ottmann said, but he in
timated that this dealing would be ccs.-
fined to spring lamb, which, he said, is
considered among the best and most
highly favored in the world.
The distance these twenty carcasses
travelled in order to reach New York
approximatesi about $4,000 miles. In
point of time 1t required between thir-
ty-fiye and forty days for the ship that
carried the consignment to make the
voyage from New Zealand to London.

BIG IOWA MINING DEAL.
Whitebreast Company to Absorb
Smoky Hollow Mines at Hynes.

Abba, April 26.-The corporation oc-
topus has tentacles extended in this
county and from indications it is very
probable the Smoky Hollow coal mines
at Hynes will pass from the hands OF
j. q. Evans and be merged with the
White Breast Fuel Company.
Several days ago Messrs. Hodge and
Rice made trip thru the mines, meas
ured the coal and took all inside meas
urements for the information of the
higher bosses. Yesterday another par
ty of officials visited the mine and
spent the entire day in looking over the
outside work. The people of Avery and
Hyries consider that a deal will be
made. OF course, If the mines are sold
the two company stores will be in
GUIDED in the deal.
~The Smoky Hollow mines are owned
by j. T. Evans. He has options that
cover the larger part-of Mantua town
ship and owns private railroad that
runs within two miles of BlakesburS
and his own engine which delivers the
coal on the main line of the G. B. &
@. railway. The property II valued
