New York, Aug. 9.-It is announced

ed they will do away with the crush at
stations now so much complained or
The innovation will cost $1,000,000 or
more.
While much of the testimony brought
out at the hearing is chiefly of local i'm
portance, there are occasionally some
DEVELOPMENTS of more than passing in
terest. An interesting point brought out
was the reading by Mr.. 1vens of a por-
ton of the incorporation act of the
Manhattan Elevated company which
contained a provision that seat should
be provided for each passenger. If seat
was not obtained a passenger could ride
free of charge The road was incor-
porated in 1875; probably so long ago
that this interesting provision was for
gotten.
Another thing which the public SER

He May Begin Criminal Prosecution
Against Hartman.

Lenox. Mass, Aug. 9.-That criminal

personally, against individuals would be
included in the prosecutions He re-
piled somewhat enigmatically:
Il have noticed a good many com
plants that criminal prosecutions
against trust magnates and sentences of
imprisonment for them have been very
infrequent and. in fact, for practical
purposes, unknown. 1t is perfectly true
that, in my opinion at least, a better
moral effect would be produced by send
ing few prominent men to Jail than
by great deal of litigation, however
successful, against the corporations they
controlled.
Some time since two corporations and
their respective presidents were indicted
Jointly for violation of the antitrust
law. If the corporation were guilty of
such. ii would be hard for the lay mind
at least TO understand how their presi-
dents could be innocent. Nevertheless,
the jury convicted the corporations and
acquitted their presidents
1T is the avowed purpose of the de-
partment of justice to prosecute crimin-
ally any one who is really responsible
for violations of the antitrust law
wherever it can do so with any reason
able probability of success. 1t does not
care to prosecute mere underlings who
are known to everyone to have acted
under the direct authority of their su-
periors But If II can get
case against any of the su-
periors such as justifies a reasonable
hope on the part of experienced lawyers
that he can be punished personally the
department will undoubtedly take ad-
vantage of the opportunity as soon as it
is presented

LAST OF THE STAGES.
Electric Omnibus Drives Them Out of
Business.

Ner York. Aug. 9.-With the auc-
ton sale on Wednesday of all the Fifth
Avenue Coach company's horses,
omnibuses, stages end harness, the last
of the stage coaches passed away from
New York. The new electric omni-
buses with a fare of ten cents have
now completely replaced the old sys-
tenn on Fifth avenue.
The first public local stage made its
appearance in June. 1890. 1t ran
hourly between Wall and Bleecker
streets. In time the stages ran on all
the principal streets and connected all
of the important points of the city.
They came to represent an invested
capital of more than a million dollars.
Instead of street car accidents and
automobile collisions, people in those
days read of the stage drivers striking
against the rule compelling them to
wear tall hats or of stage coach races
between drivers down Broadway. One
by one the stage lines were supplanted
by street cars and now their last

UP TO HIGHEST COURT.
National Correspondence Schools to
Take Kansas Case to U. S. Court.

The case of the International Cor
respondence schools of Scranton, Pa,
against A. T. Pigg of Topeka, to COL
lect on a set of text books furnished
to Pigg, promises to become a lawsuit
of national Importance. The attorneys
for the text book concern today ap-
pea1ed the case to the United States
supreme court.
In this case the Kansas supreme
court held that the Scranton, Pa. con-
Germ had no standing in Kansas
court because it has not complied with
the law requiring foreign corporations
to come under the state charter regu-
lations For that reason the claim of
the company against Pigg was held to
be invalid The amount of the Pigg
claim is less than 500. but it is the
precedent which the company is OBJ
jecting to.
W. H. Cowles one of the attorneys
for the International said this morn
ing: "While the company might com
ply with the Kansas corporation laws
without any great Inconvenience, yet
1t would establish the precedent n of
dangerous Importance for the com
pany. 1t might be required to COM
ply with similar laws in all the states
of the Union. and we hold that this
can not be required

HALSEY IS DYING.
Telenhone Official Charged With Bril-
berry Will Not Be Tried.

San Francisco, Aug. 9.-Theodore
V. Halsey. the telephone company Off
cial on trial in the superior court for
alleged bribery of supervisors, is dying
at the st. Francis hospital in this city
Halsey was taken i'll Wednesday with
what was diagnosticated as severe in
testinal trouble and as his condition
became worse. a consultation of physi-
clans was held on his case. Appendi-
c1t1s was suspected and he was taken
10 the hospital yesterday afternoon for
a surgical operation. The appendix
was found to be in gangrenous con-
d1tion and this grave phase of the trou-
bic in connection with his impaired
vitality due to prolonged nervous
strain caused the surgeons to believe
that there is little hope for his re-
covery.
Halsey was to have appeared in
court Yesterday but physicians report
ed his disability and the case was post
poned until today.

1T WAS ALL A MISTAKE.

statement was made in the State Jour-
nal of Thursdays issue that Mrs. Mary
Ann Goodwin had started a suit for
divorce from her husband. w. S. Good
win. whose address is at No. 436 East
Locust street. The parties interested
in this divorce suit have the name of
Goodin. and not Goodwin. The Good
ins live in North Topeka and Mr.
Goodfn who has been sued for divorce,
is a horse trader. Mr.. and Mrs Good
win. who were mentioned as the par
ties to the divorce suit. are most hap
PLY married and were naturally
chagrined when the incorrect state
ment about their being in the divorce
court was printed. A similarity of
names and initials was responsible for
the error.

/ a canard which has been started by
some one who is a seeker for noto-
riety.
In the furtherance of his work as
historian, Mr.. Connelley has been
| collecting data for years concerning
the real Quantrell, it being his inten-
| ton to write a book about the deeds
of this rather notorious man. During
this pursuit for his material concern
| ing Quantrell, he purchased from
Mrs. w. w. Scott. of Canal Dover,
Ohio which was QuantrelPs original
home, all of the letters from Guam
| trell to his folks and other documents
bearing on his life and death which
was in the possession of Quantrell's IS
mother, who had turned them over
| to Mrs. Scott's husband Mr.. Scott
| had planned to write a history of
Quantrell-s life but under the stipula-
ton from Quantrells mother that it
be not published until after her death
Mr.. Scott died before this occurred
and so these important and interest
ing papers came into the possession of
Mr. Connelley.
From these letters and papers, and
from further Investigations made by
him, Mr.. Connelley is certain that the
famous Quantrell died at Louisville,
KY. in 1855, from the effects of a
wound received by him during a fight
around a barn at Wakefield in Spen-
Ger county, Kentucky. Quantrel1
was going under the name Of Capt.
Clark during his raids through that
country at the time he received the
wound which resulted in his death.
Mr.. ConneIley says he has conclusive
evidence that Capt. Clark did not
attempt to deny that he was Guam
trell after he had been wounded in
this engagement According to Mr..
mained for two days and nights at
Wakefield after he had been wound
ed and was visited by many of his
men during this time. They made all

away but he knew he was morta1ly
wounded and refused to let them do
so. He was removed by the Union
authorities in an ambulance to Louis
Vile, thirty miles away, where he was
cared for in a Roman Catholic hospit-
al and where he died within a month
or six weeks.
Quantrell's mother went there on
being notified of his death and was
convinced beyond a doubt of her sons
death and had his body removed to
Canal Dover, o., the old family home
where the boy was born and where
his body was buried. Mrs. Quantrell
afterwards sold the lot in the ceme-
and his remains were exhumed. For
historical purposes she permitted Mr.
Scott, who was getting his material to
write a history of Quantrell. to take
among the things that Mr.. Connelley
purchased from Mrs Scott.

force.
He stated to Duffy that he was cor
rect in his recognition. Sharp said he
had been left as dead and instead of
dying of his wounds at Louisville, as
history recorded, had taken horse,
ridden many miles and disappeared. He
made his way to South America, living
a number of years in Chile, whence he
went to Texas where he engaged in the
cattle business, making considerable
money which he spent. Then he went
to Oregon where he punched cows and
drove cattle over the mountains From
Oregon he came to British Columbia
nearly two decades ago and engaged In
logging at different camps OF the north
east coast of Vancouver island, until
ten years ago, when he became trap

the Sisters hospital at Louisville. Ky.
Rev. Thomas Cobb, formerly pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church of this
city, but now located in Oklahoma,
knew Quantrell in Kentucky during the
civil war. He was a cavalry recruit
ing officer and at the time camped with
Quantrell for two days and had many
talks with him.
Rev. Mr.. Cobb said: "Quantrell
then was in central Kentucky. He
was on his way to Virginia and Mary
land to join Mosby. He had a skirm-
Ish. with the federal troops. the
Twelfth Kentucky cavalry, and was
seriously wounded. He was not known
as QuantrelI during that expedition
but went under the name of Captain
Clark.
81 was paroled in Louisville about
that time by Col Folsom. One day
Col. Folsom asked me If knew
Quantrell, and I told him did. Then
he asked me if would identify him
and I said 1 would If he were dead.
Then you will not identify him if he
is alive?' asked Col. Folsom. No
replied. I was taken to view a body,
but it was not that of Quantrell. But
a day or two later several of Guam
trells men saw the dead body of their
leader in the Sisters hospital and at
tended his funeral in the Catholic
cemetery. This, believe, is the true
story of QuantrelPs death and burial"
