road Company of 100000 as provided
under the old bill, is not changed by the
sylvania Railroad Company will give up Its
tracks on the mall and it's claim to the ad-
ditional land on the mall granted 1t by Con-
gress for increasing it's trackage facilities
and this land will be needed for the mall
Improvement and possibly will be used as d
site for public building belonging to the
general government, the bill which has
been approved by the railroad companies
provides for the turning Of this land over
to the general government which is to pay
for it about 100000.
1t is claimed by the railroad companies
that its tunnel under and along the line Of
lSt street and other accessories to the sta
tion will cost them about s1.5OoO0O. The
basis on which the cost of eliminating grade
crossings is divided between the Pennsyl-
Vania railroad and the government under
the pending plan is the same that which
was provided in the Pennsylvania railroad
bill that placed the cost of improvements
in the railroads right of way on the com
pany. while the cost of regulating ap-
proaches and paying damages is on the
District and general government Jointly.
Five Years Work.
1t will probably require five years to COM
plete these improvements The building
Of the union station alone could be accom-
pl1shed In about one and half years il
there was no difficulty in securing the
prompt delivery Of steel and If no strikes
should occur to interfere with the progress
OF the work. But 1t is not believed that
the work could go along steadily to
allow the completion of the project in that
time. The improvements will not interfere
with the running of trains on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad. and when the station is
completed and Pennsylvania trains from
South Washington are run through the
tunnel to the station, the difference in time
between their present station on 9Th street
and the union station will be about two
minutes. That is, the time from New York
or Philadelphia to this city will be two min
utes longer.

ruary II. 1901, he dined heartily on killie
fish, then he went way back in his tank
and sat down. and he never touched food
again until March of this year. He Is
really the "Dr. Tanner OF the aquarium,
and bears his honors with unchanging
ugliness He is very spry considering how
empty his stomach must be. The big cat
fish fed on September Z and again on Oc-
tober s. 1901. Since that time he has not
touched anything. Yet the catfish is very
active. He looks glossy and plump and
fiirts his fins in an Independent way.
Meteor Nearing Completion.
Wallace Downey says that the German
emperor's yacht Meteor will be ready to
sail for the other side much earlier than
was at first expected. The mainmast has
beeen stepped and the riggers will then
push their work rapidly 1t is now be-
leved that the yacht will be in cruising
trim for the run across the Atlantic In
about ten days. A suit of working sail are
being made for her here and after her In
terror finishngs have been completed In
England she will be fitted with suit or
racing canvas from Ratseys loft.

TRIED TO SKIN A BOY.
Little Brother Played "Cow" and
Larger Lad Was Butcher.


special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun
from Goshen, n. Y, yesterday says:
Playing the role of COW. because his six
year-old brother, ambitious to 'be a butch
er like papa" told him to, almost cost the
life Of the four-year-old son of Charles Ha-
ners. who lives at Marshland, near Parker s
Glen.
When found he was unconscious, strung
up by the heels alongside a recently slaugh-
tered animal and just about to be skinned
by the enthusiastic young workman, who
had asked his mother for knife.
The boy had been careful observer Of
his fathers methods. He had often watch
ed him throw a rope over a beef, knock
1t senseless, string 1t up to beam in the
slaughter house and prepare it for market.
He was filled with his ambition to emulate
his father, and energetically lassoed his
little brother. When the moose frightened
about his neck the little chap trudged sub
missively along behind his captor until the
slaughter house was reached.
There the elder brother took small iron
bar and dealt his captive a blow that
knocked him senseless. Then he fastened
the rope around his ankles and hoisted him
up by means of windlass. A few mo-
where his mother was at work.
Gimme the knife he said. "'cause the
COW is kilt. and I'm goin' to skin 'im.''
The mother accompanied the boy to the
slaughter house to see what he meant, and
was horrified when he showed her with
much satisfaction. what he called the
cow
She lowered the little boy to the floor, ap-
parently lifeless. She worked over him for
two hours. assisted by a physician, and at
the expiration of that time consciousne SIS
returned. The boys injuries will not prove
fatal but the amateur butcher is much dis
gusted with the interference with his
plans.

GRENFELL NOT HEARD FROM.
Keen Anxiety in London About the
Missing British Column.

q
A London cablegram to the New York
Tribune says:
War news has remained suspic'ously
light since Lord Methuens defeat and re-
lease Military men do not conceal their
anxiety to hear what has become OF Col
Grenfelrs column of 800 men, which was
waiting for Lord Methuen's force south of
Lichtenburg and was exposed to an attack
by Delarey after the capture of the con-
yoy They assume that Col. Grenfell has
either been strongly reinforced or has re-
tired on Litchenburg or Potchefstroom
While the censor obviously suppresses de-
tails there will be feeling OF relief
among military men when the safety OF
Col Grenfells column is assured.
A cablegram from London 10 the New
York Sun says:
1.-The Impression caused in this country
by the chivalrous magnanimity of Com
mandant Delarey In releasing British
general whom he might have exchanged
with advantage is remarkably deep ana

THREATENED TO KILL CHILDREN
Blackmailers Terrorize a Prominent
Family in Pittsburg, Pa.

6S
The Pittsburg Dispatch publishes the fol-
lowing:
Repeated threats to abduct his three chill
dren unless a ransom Of s25, 600 was left in
certain spot, and a warning that murder
would follow the placing of detectives on
the case. will cause Alexander r. peacock,
former first vice president and general sales
agent OF the Carnegie Company. to remove
his little family temporarily from his Lex
ington avenue home to the Holland House.
New York.
The case was put In the hands Of detec-
tives. and it is said arrest OF the guilty
parties is now practically certain.
About two months ago, during the alb
sence from home of Mr.. Peacock. letter
was received at the Lexington avenue house
through the mails addressed to him. Mrs.
Peacock opened the envelope, and the letter
lncloSed was found to be warning that
three bright little children of the family,
aged respectively, fourteen. ten and two
years. would be kidnapped unless Mr.. Pea
cock deposited at certain appointed spot
on North Highland avenue $2J,OO0 in
money. The letter was unsigned. Not
many days later a second letter was re-
ceived by Mr.. Peacock, stating that the
sender was aware of the fact that detec-
tiYes had been put on the case. and that If
the money was not deposited in the deSig-
mated place the writer would not steal the
children, but would murder them.
This second letter produced consterna ton
in the family. Mrs. Peacock became ill.,
and, thinking 1t necessary that his wife
should have the services OF distinguished
New York physicians, her huSba nd removed
her, together with the children, to New
York city, where they have resided since.
Mr. Peacock is one of the most promi-
nent and wealthy business men of Pitts
burg. The sensational prominence he gained
in industrial events the past two years is
believed to have induced the concoction Of
the scheme to blackmail him.

patch from its correspondent a. s.; Peters
burg stating that rumors are current there
in regard to the imminence Of an outbreak
