USED A PUMP HANDLE.
Mrs. william Young Badly Injured by
Her Husband.

William Young, colored, 332 West Tenth
street, was arrested last night by Bicycle
Policemen Askins and Duncan and slated
at the police station for assault and bat
terry on his wife. The charge may later be
changed to assault with intent 10 kill. as
the unfortunate woman is reported as be-
ing In a rather serious condition.
Early last evening Mrs. Young went to
call on her sister. who lives at 1913 BROKER

time, she says. when her sister suggested
that she take a pitcher that was standing

May Abolish Bridge Arbitrary.

In consideration of the Western trunk
lines having abolished the bridge arbitrary
at Omaha, the agitation in favor of such
action at ST. Louis has been renewed, and il
has received added stimulus by the contro-
versy over the Terminal Associations re-
quest for enlarged franchises. The condi-
tons at Omaha are TO great extent SINH
lar TO those at St Louis, and to make the
rate from Omaha to point .seventy-five
miles distant in Iowa, the bridge arbitrary
Is added TO the rate to Council Bluffs the
same as the rate from St Louis is made TO
q point seventy-five miles distant in Illi-
nois. by adding the bridge charge TO the
rate from East ST. Louis. Aside from East
ern lines absorbing the bridge charge on st.
Louis freight, there is another feature of
the case. At present Western lines absorb
the bridge charge on all through business
delivered to them by Eastern lines This is
done on account of the competition of the
Chicago * Alton, and If the rates TO ST
Louis were made the same as to East ST
Louis il would relieve the Western lines
from paying these charges, for the Eastern
lines would be obliged 10 assume them. But
the completion of the Chicago. Burlington
& Quincy and the Chicago & Alton cut-off
will give the latter entrance to St Louis on
the west side, and that may change the
whole situation.
