Here sunday and Made Two Trips
Between Here and shippers.


On Saturday the Cumberland Valley

new engines ordered several months
ago from the Baldwin Locomotive
works. Philadelphia. The new engine

tern to the large engines used by the
Western Maryland Railroad company.
1t arrived in Harrisburg on Satur-
day forenoon. having hauled 100 cars
from Philadelphia to Harrisburg. 1900
tons. B. f. Lippy was the engineer
who brought the big machine to Car
Isle and Engineer Hawbecker from
that place TO Chambersburg and thence
to this city. The engine passed through
Chambersburg on Saturday evening
about 6 O'Clock. Logue Smith was
the conductor of the train.
There were 700 car loads of freight
moved by the Cumberland VALLEY rail-
road of this citv on Sunday. Every
engine wa placed in service and there
was a hustle among the EMPLOYEES dur
ing the twentyfonr hours of Sunday.
The new engine. No. 20, made two
trips between ShippensDurg and Mar
tinsburg durings.the day and the big
machine was admired all along the
line. AS a resultsof the extra move
there was a large decrease in the
number of east bound cars at this
city. The yards at the freight con-
nection here were blocked with the
large amount of flight transferred on
Saturday night.
The company are still short of men
and a number of the younger railroad

$40, 1000, 900 TO IMPROVE B. & 0.
Business In Pittsburg District Now
Refused Would Make 20 Per
Cent Increase.

Baltimore, Feb. 2S.AA statement
was issued from the office of General
Manager George l.. Porter. of the Bal
timore & Ohio that the company will
start and COMPLETE a vast amount Of
important work in betterments during
the spring, which will involve an ex-
penditure of 5000, 900, 900.
The statement says that Some of the
most important work under way is be-
tween Cumberland and Chicago juno
ton. via Connellsyille and Pittsburo.
and the improvements. which are be-
ing made us rapidly as conditions al
low are for two purposes.
Zone is to complete the low grade
line between the Eastern seaboard and
Chicago and a railroad with less than
a five-tenths NAHUM except at one of
two points where helpers will be used
will be the result of this effort. In do
ing this work and caring for the
through business the management is
keeping in mind a more rapid outlet for
the tonnage of the great Pittsburg
district.
'sIf the Baltimore 81 Ohio railroad
today could handle all the business
offered it in the Pittsburg district. it
would increase its earnings fully 90
par cent, and the pioperty is now
earning, including all leased and
owned lines, over $50. 900, 900 a year.
BY the midule of next summer the en-
tire line from Pittsburg TO Philadel-
phia will be doubled tracked with
greatly reduced grades and an inn
proved alignment that has eliminated
hundreds of degrees of curvature.
sin and about Plttsburg proper sur
views have been made for important adj
ditions to the present facilities. and
estimates are being made with a view
of starting work early in the summer
III the contemplated movements can
be carried out. the facilities insPitts-
burg will be gaatlv augmented. West
of Pittsbnrg a vast deal of impotant
work is in immediate contemplation.

A Big COST BILL
Arthur Heinze Perfects Appeal to
Order Assessing Receivership
\ Expenses to Him.
The Costs in the Nipper Mine Affair
Were $2l $50 Bill Of Excep-
tions Settled.
Special to The Journal.


Butte, Mont, June I'm resuonse to an
order in mandamus proceedings in the SUI
preme court the bill Of exceptions on APP
peal in the famous Nipper receivership
case was settled to-day in Judge Clancey's
court. The court had refused to settle
the bill on the ground that there had been
a fatal delay in perfecting the appeal, but
the supreme court was appealed to in be-
half of Arthur p HeinZe, and now he will
have opportunity to appeal to the higher
tribunal from, the order of Judge Clancy,
charging him up with the costs of the re-
ceivership in the suit of M. A. Hickey, Ed
ward Hickey, John M. Steward, F. August
Heinze and Arthur p. Heinze, against the
Parrot Silver and Copper company.
Thomas Mclaughlin was appointed re-
ceiver OF the Nipper mine, but on an APP
peal being taken by the Parrot company,
the receivership was set aside by the SUI
prene court. The costs of the receiver
sh,pi however, had to be paid and after
hearing the arguments of the attorney the
bill was charged to the plaintiff, A. p.
Heinze, on the ground that the receiver
was appointed on his special motion.
The costs that the court charged A.tP.
being as follows: Balance due to Thomas
Mclaughlin as receiver, $11, 431; Kirk &
Clinton, as attorneys for receiver, $4,000;
H L. Maury. attorney for receiver.
$4,000; j. B. McGinn, as bookkeeeper for
receiver, $125.
An appeal has now been perfected to the
higher courts from the orders Of Judge
Clancy, assessing this big cost bill to A.
P. Heinze. A bond of appeal in the sum
| of $400,166 was fled to-day with F. August
Heinze and John MacGinniss as sureties.

Be Prosecuted.
= PINE CITY, MINN.-The Chengwatana
dam, blown out by masked men on Sun
day night. was valued at SO, 900, but the
loss by reason of it's destruction is several
times that sum. The Munich estate of ST.
Paul has an equitable interest in the DAM
Emil Munich says the dam was blown up
by a band Of lawless Bohemian farmers
Four or five have been identified and will
be prosecuted to the extent Of the law.
''Seven men attacked the watchman's
shanty," said Mr. Munich, (which is built
directly over the dam. Men were sta
toned on both sides of the river while
others watched the house occupied by the
superintendent of the dam. The seven
men, wearing sacks over their faces with
holes for the eyes, pointed guns at the
two night watchmen, ordering them to
surrender. After the watchmen, held up
their hands one of the gang struck a
Waterman on the face, cutting deep
cash.
-Four of the masked men marched the
watchmen over the bridge, while the 9TH
ers lighted seven fuses leading to the dy-
Mantle, which they had placed in jugs in
the piers and covered with rocks. Three
of the charges went off, blowing two sluice
gates into splinters The noise of the
explosion was heard four miles away. AS
soon as the fuses were lighted the masked
( men took fight into the woods. The
watchmen are satisfied. however, that they
can identify four or five.
1.-THE men had been holding meetings for
several days previous. Leaders had ha-
rangued the meetings to the effect that
the dam must CO. They encouraged
their subordinates by saying that there
was no danger of prosecution since no one
could ever get a jury in the vicinity tt
convict them.

murder occurred on the steamer Ben
Hershey in the river last night. When
the. Hershey passed the steamer Fronte-
nae on which Vincent Boland worked
Boland, who had a grudge against the
crew Of the Hershey. boarded the latter
boat with knife and attempted to wipe
out the crew.
The first man he met was Tom Wilson.
whom he cut in the neck and left on the
deck dangerously wounded. File next met
David Bronx, for whom he had a special
enmity. and the two men engaged in a
desperate fight, Bronx trying to protect
himself from the knife.
Bronx was cut up considerably, but with
the assistance of others of the crew fin
ally overpowered Boland.
Boland, however, escaped from the boat,
yowing to get" all on the boat on the
