REFUSES TO INTERFERE IN PRO.
POSED UNION OF PRESBY-
TERRAIN CHURCHES.

Decatur, ILL.,, May 24.-The applica.
ton for an injunction to restrain the
union of the Presbyterian churches
has been decided by Judge Johns. He
refused to issue the injunction. Judge
Johns said that the case has no
parallel in the jurisprudence Of the
United States He treated the church
as voluntary organization, the acts
of whose highest tribunal are binding
on all members and will not be inter
fered with by the courts if the acts
are fair and honest: He held that
courts Of equity will! not pass on doc
trinal matters, the decision of ecclesi-
astical judiciaries being binding on
civil courts as to matters of faith.

WATERLOO HOTEL PROJECT.
Prominent Business Men Have Plan
For Erecting New Six-Story Struct-

Special to Times-Republican
Waterloo, Fb. As the result of
Tuesday mornings big fire here, it is
quite probable that before the fall OF
1906. fine new siX-story hotel will be
erected on the site of the burned
building. This plan of erecting such a
hotel somewhere in this city has been
under consideration for several weeks,
but the matter has been kept pro-
found secret until yesterday, when
there arose a new hope. The plan
is being carefully considered by about
dozen prominent men, the majority
of whom live in this city, but if built,
out side capital will figure largely.
According to one of the men inter
ested, it is the purpose of those fur
thering the scheme to engage the in
terests of twenty men. Ten of them
will be asked to take 100000 worth of
stock, while the other ten will sub
scribe for $4,000 worth of stock. This
plan would give the company capital
of s15O,0OO, sum thought to be suf-
ficient to build one of the finest hotels
in this part of the state. Nearly all OF
those seen about the matter have talk
ed favorably, the majority going on
record as saying that they desired $1O,-
900 worth of stock.

c. E. SINGER WOULD RESIGN.
Government Reluctant to Let Veteran
Railway Mail Clerk Retire.

Dubuque, Feb. 7-Charles E. Singer,
who holds the distinction of being one
of the Oldest men in the railway mail
service in point of seniority, and is
perhaps the oldest in the world when
age is considered. has notified the
postal authorities of his desire TO re-
tire from the service. But the govern
ment is reluctant to accept the resig-
nation of the veteran, and, it is said,
has made overtures to Mr.. Singer with
the view of keeping him in the service
by offering him a better run with
lighter work.
Mr.. Singer has passed the eighty
fourth mile stone of life's pathway.
and has spent thirtyfour years in the
civil service as railway mail clerk.
During this time he has Travelled many
thousands Of miles. and fortunately
was never in but one railroad wreck.
On December 80 he caught a severe
cold which has since caused him a
great deal of trouble, and feeling that
he has discharged his LIES work
faithfully and is now entitled to \
rest he mailed his resignation to the
authorities at Washington with the
above result.

PLOT TO cREMATE SHERIFF.
Rifle Battle Follows Attempt to Burn
North Dakota Residence.

Minot, N. D., Feb. 1.-THE village of
Portal is greatly excited over what
appears to have been a deliberate at
tempt to burn home and cremate it's
nine inmates. The scene was at the
home Of Lee Olson, foreman of the 500
roundhouse. Sheriff John Lee of Ward
county also lives there and the plot, it
is thought, was against him.
Olson was awakened at 1 o'clock in
the morning by the sound of some one
boring beneath his bedroom window.
Jumping from his bed he saw three
men outside, who started to run away
when they saw Olson The latter
awakened Sheriff Lee and both men
grabbing their rifles, started in pur-
suit. Olson saw man running toward
the gate and shot him. Thinking he
was dead Olson assisted the sheriff in
Handwriting another member of the
gang, who proved to be Howard Smith.
The man shot was William Coyne.
The men had bored a hole through
the side of the house. Beside this was
large can of gasoline.
1t is believed the men intended to
pour the gasoline into the hole and
then set fire to the house in the hope
of cremating the sheriff, who last week
caused the arrest Of eleven Portal

NO MORE SPEED CONTESTS.
TranscontinentaI Lines Reach ar
Agreement.


Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE Record-Herald
today says:
Transcontinental railroads reached
an agreement yesterday that will prac-
tically eliminate all competition for
coming mail contracts west of Chicago
to the Pacific coast In pursuance of
the agreement notices were sent out by
the three roads operating fast trans
continental mail trains that after next
Sunday the running time of the Cali
fornia limited of the Santa Fe, the
Los Angeles limited of the Northwest
ern, Uliion Pacific and San Pedro
roads aud the Golden State limited OF
the Rock Island and Southern Pacific
would be increased from sixty-seven
and one-Guarter hours between Chi
cago and Los Angeles to sixty nine
and one quarter hours.
BY this arrangement the Santa Fe
will relinquish some of the mail it now
secures at Kansas City and the Rock
Island will get some of this, while the
Northwestern and Union Pacific will
secure some new mail at Chicago from
the east.
Repeated conferences between the
highest officials led to the final con-
clusion that it would be better to in
augurate schedules that the trains
could maintain than to be continually
arriving late at the terminals. The
roads concerned have agreed not to
engage in any speed war to secure un-
due preference in the mail contracts to
be awarded In the spring.
