correspondent at Pittsburg says that an
agreement has been arranged between the
Mononghela railroad and the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad. whereby the latter will
be allowed to use any portion Of the river
division between Brownsville and Gates.
This is an entirely new field for the BalL-
more and Ohio. and the officials OF the
read believe that the freight traffic in
the Pfttsburg district Will be greatly in
creased.
The Monongahela railroad is owned joint
ly by the Pennsylvania and the Pittsburg
and Lake Erie railroad companies, and
until now the Baltimore and Ohio has been
excluded from that district. The announce
ment last week to the effect that other rah-
roads have completed plans to enter Pftts-

Some concern was excited Furthermore by
a sharp rise in the grain market. which
was accompanied by reports of the appear

rise in the grain market was about equally
due to the publication report of the Agri-

Attempt to Derail Great West
em Passenger by Explosives
Is Unsuccessful
ENGINE AND TRACK DAMAGED
Freight Train Strikes the Explosive
No Clue to Miscreants and the OBJ
ject a Mystery-Robbery Not Be-
ieved to Have Been Motive-Wat-
erloo People Disturbed by Explosion
Special to 1imes- Republican.


Waterloo, Nov. 17.-No clue has
been found that is likely to lead to the
apprehension OF parties that tried to
wreck q Great Western train with dy-
Mantle here early Friday morning. 1t
Is the opinion here that the explosive
was meant for the passenger train,
which is due out of here at midnight.
1t was set off, however. by a freight
engine shortly after midnight. The
locomotive was damaged and the track
was partially undermined, but no 9TH
err damage resulted and no one was
injured.
Plans evidently had been laid to
blow the train into the ditch on the
steep grade near the viaduct that
spans the Illinois Central tracks. When
the freight bound for Oelwein reached
u point near the bridge. a terrific ex-
plosion resulted, which was heard
many blocks
The enginemen made an examination
OF the locomotive and found rods were
bent and other minor parts were blown
off or damaged. Considerable dirt was
blown from under the track, but not
enough to render 1t unsafe. After a
hasty examination of the rails the train
proceeded to Oelwein, where the mat
ter was reported to the officials. Wat
erloo was notified and the police were
sent to the scene.
The road was gone over thoroughly
by the police, but no evidence of other
explosives was found nor was any clue
obtained to the party who placed 1t
upon the track. 1t is not known def.
nitely whether it was dynamite, nitro
glycerine, or some other substance.
1t is not clear what motive prompted
the deed, but it is believed the charge
was meant for the passenger train.
Owing to the passenger being late, the
freight train was running on that
schedule consequently passed over the
explosive in place of the other train
A theory has been advanced that
the explosive was placed in the track
nv some one who did not realize the
mischief 1t would do. The idea OF
train robbery is secuted for the reason
that the attempt to wreck was made
within the city where many peo-
nile reside within earshot.

Mr.. WINERY responded in a five-mIn-

Mr.. WINERY spoke with much feel

1t had been the hapriest part of their

c,naoto1 - 1i,oas r onuhlican

SpcC(dL " AiAhSS AsSPN0AAS.s'
Davenport, Nov. IA warrant has
been issued against Henry Snitgrindt
accusing him of embezzlement and the
case is to come before Justice Rodde-
wig.
c. T. Cooper, representing the es-
tate of Henry Brocker, is the prose-
cutting attorney in the case and ac-
cording to the story Snitgrindt is a
bad actor.
1t seems from the statements made
that the watch belonged to Henry
Brocker and that a short time before
his death he took it to a matchmaker
to be repaired. Snitgrindt seems to
have been a personal friend of Brock
err and knew that the watch was at
the jewelry store, for, according to
the story at the Justices office. he
went there short time after Brocker
was killed, paid the charges on the
watch and secured it.
Now the heirs have charged him
with enrbezzling the watch, claiming
that he secured it and has kept 1t
without authority.
