The Metropolis Herald says:
Negotiations on the part of Frank
Wood. of Chicago. are pending with
Johns Bros, c. T. Lefingwell and
perhaps others for the purchase of
the houses and lots owned by these
gentlemen on First street. 1t is the
belief of outside parties that Mr.
Wood represents the Illinois Central
Railroad company and that their
purpose is to build modern depot
dow ntown. The Herald's informa-
ton comes from the parties owning
the land.

Cotton Belt Officials
 Gave Prompt Relief

The Ionesboro News has the fol-
 lowing comment to make on the
 promptncss of the Cotton Belt off cials fin sending a relief train to Fish CT. Ark immediately after the recent
 cyclone there:
 The heartlessness of corporations
 has been the whoop of demagogues and the theme of political windjam-
 ners for 10, these man days, and a
 lot of people have taken it for granted
 that tho most cold-blooded. cruel and
 selfish thing on earth is the biz cor
 poration.
 In this category the railroads are
 se!assed first because theY arc tls
 most numerous and the least likely to take any notice of the abuse heaped upon them.
 In view of this. it is somewhat re freshing to come across an instance now and then Of an act of benevo- lence on the part of a railroad through it's high officials in complete refutation of the charge. Such in- stances are not infrequent, either, One occurred in Jonesboro yesterday when news of the disaster to the town of Fisher was received here. Superintendent A. E. Peck, of the Cotton Belt Railway, passed through Fisher yesterday and saw the work of destruction. He hastened on to
 Jonesboro and gathering physicians
 and supplies, ordered a special relief train made up at once, and started; with 1t to the scene of the great dis aster.
 The clements were not so kindly
 disposed, however, and the relief train
 was unable to proceed on account of
 the tracks being covered in places be-
 meath several feet of water. The relief, though delayed by un- ayoidable circumstances, has since been rendered, but the point to be especially noted is that MT. Peck very
 promptly began energetic measures for relief as soon as he learned of the need for it, and in this he demon
 strated that railroads and railroad of- Acials have hearts that respond as quickly and beat as sympathetically as do those of other people. And this is merely one instance. Dozens could be cited were 1t neces- sary.

Stockholm, Aug. THE tense situ-

proclaimed few days ago seemed to

that their men will return to work
Monday.
M. Won Sidow, president of the EN-

that intervention by the government
would be without result, as the differ

such a manner. The National Labor
union published statement disapprov-

gas workers, which began last night.
The electric plant was kept in opera
tion by officials of the lighting depart
ment.
As the strikers have been prevent
ing farmers from bringing provisions
into the city, troops have been detailed
to patrol the country roads.

Cerbere, France, Aug. THE Car
list leaders will hold meeting shortly
at French frontier town to decide
upon their attitude in view of recent
events, it was said today. Afterwards.
it is understood, Don Jaime, the Span
ish pretender, will issue a manifesto
declaring that he has no intention to
profit by the misfortunes of his coun-
try, but that, if the present govern
ment is powerless to save the honor of
the nation he will act.
The Carlists say that they are in a
position to arm and place in the field
quickly 100000 supporters, burning
with zeal.
Coupled with this announcement
comes the news that affairs at BARGE
Iona are far from satisfactory. While
quiet reigns in the city at present, as
far as actual revolt goes, the police are
still busy arresting people whom they
allege were implicated in the recent
outbreak, and public feeling is grow
ing resentful of their activity.
1t is also reported that prisoners held
in the Mont Juish fortress have been
executed, and prominent revolutionists
made the threat yesterday that if such
action were taken another outbreak
would follow.

PoRTERs ARE VICTORIOUS.
Judge Grants Them Right to Block
Road Against Hartman,

Moro, Or. Aug. 9.-Judge Butler late
Saturday night dissolved the temporary
Injunction issued aaginst Porter Bros.
This means that Twohy Bros. will not
be permitted to cross the Gurtz ranch
with supply teams and equipment for
the Deschutes Railway company.
Not to be outdone, Harriman's legal
representatives at once filed condemna-
tion proceedings against Porter Bros.
in an effort to force an entrance to the
disputed territory through the property
of their rivals.
Arguments in the injunction case oc-
cupied two days in the circuit court
here. A night session was also held
to expedite the hearing. There was a
long array of legal talent for both con-
testing parties.
The evidence showed that the plain
tiffs secured certain rights to go over
these certain lands with their wagons
and outfits, and on the strength of
these rights, expended $4,000 in con-
structing grade down the canyon of
the Descuhtes to the railroad right of
way. But no deeds were taken by the
plaintiffs from the land owners, nor
any agreements in. writing. Porter
Bros. saw the opportunity and purchas-
ed from the land owners the lands over
which this road ran, and Immediately
upon securing possession under these
contracts stopped the Deschutes Rail
way company from sending in supplies
over the road.
While the temporary injunction was
in force, the Deschutes Railway COM
pany had been sending in about 10 to
Is wagonloads of provisions to the riv-
er each day.
