Officer Doyle made an arrest on Thursday
right that lias proved to bo of considerable
Importance. Ho took charge of n youiiR man
whom ho suspected of being n crook. Tlio
young mnm objected to the arrest , and at
tempted to draw n revolver , but was pre
vented. Ho was taken to the station and
locked tip with n rhargo ag-alnst lilm of being
c suspicious character and carrying con
cealed weapons. Ho refused to give any
name , but finally admitted that 1\ Leo would
to good enough for him fern \vliilo. The
clllcer had noticed the fellow In company
with another young man , well known to tlio
police under the name of John Sullivan , who
Is said to bo the sea of a noted abandoned
woman in this city. Later in tbo night it
was determined to hunt up Sullivan , and ho
was llnally lodged in Jail , hut no charge was
preferred against him.
Tlio ofllccrs hnd grave reasons for suspectIng -
Ing that the young men were engaged in

Conclusion o ( the Iliirke Cn o.
The arguments In the llurko damage case
wcro concluded nt 4 o'clock yesterday nftor-
10011 , but the case will not bo given to the
ury until this morning at the regular hour of
opening court. 2f early nil of the Jurymen nro
jrny headed , and several of them are qulto
niirin. Tlio C.HO has been ou trial nearly
two weeks and the Jurymen have had a hard
scigoof it. In view of these facts Judge
Mncoy , with thoughtful consideration , rc-
Tralncd from reading his Instructions to the
jury , thus relieving them of the necessity of
taking the ease under consideration at the
close of court last evening and being robbed
of their rest for the night or until they
reached a verdict. The Instructions will be
? lven this morning and they -will retire totho
| ury room after having had tt good night's
rest , and will bo much better ublo to con
sider all the intricate points and the mass of
testimony that has boon poured into them.
The case will remain for perhaps many
years the most Important ami ably contested
Hint the 1'ottawattaiuio bir lias ever known.
Attorney McCabe concluded his argument
for the defense yesterday morning. His
speech , begun the afternoon previous , was
tuo last made for the defense , and It will
stand as ono of the greatest efforts ho ever
made. It was a keen , clear and argumenta
tive presentation of the evidence to the jury.
While not unaccompanied with outbursts of
eloquence it was not designed toranlchigh
as eloquent oratory , but a lucid dispassionate
statement of facts to the Jury. When ho
closed yesterday morning it was evident that
ho had made a ducp Impression upon the Jury.
The closing argument for tlio plaintiff was
maclo by John N. Baldwin. It was a speech
that will rank with the best efforts of his
life. It WHS eloquent from the commence
ment totho cndiiiK. lie has seldom addressed
a more Intelligent looking Jury or a better
looking audlcnco in a court room. His
eloquent outbursts had a marked effect , both
upon the Jury and the crowd in the court
room.

tonnage n hurriedly called meeting of the
general councilor vcstern roads was called
today In Chairman Wulkcr's ' ollicc. As has
already been publlsied , lumber dealers In
Eau Clalro luvo pftltloned the interstate
commerce commission fora reduction in tlio
present lumber differentials , claiming It was
a discrimination against them. Tlio
differentials nro now from 1 to ( i'rf ' cents
in f.ivor of Chicago , nnd wcro established
after year * of ruinous r.ito wars , Under
these differentials Chicago has lost To per

their plea , The Mississippi river is now the
competitor of tlio St. Paul and docs nearly

business. Its unswcrthercforowtis , ono which

The session of railroad attorneys to con
sider the matter was a stormy ono nnd , as a ,
result , ttie St. 1'aul will nmciidlts answer to
embody the views of all Chicago lines until
Lhe interstate commerce commission renders
its decision. However , all western roads
will lie on tent-hooks. The situation is still

not to pay their rents , was again called In
court at * Tippcrary tills morning , O'llrlea
and Dillon have hitherto been present at nil
hearingsbut this morning when court opened
they did not put in nn appear
ance and It wni rumored they hiul
left the country , Much excitement prevailed
In TIpperary wlicn It wns Known that the
two defendants had abandoned their dcfcmo
and loft the plnce. A continuation of the
rumor tlmt they had left the country was re-
colvcd , but none wns received , however , of
the report tlmt they had sidled from ( Juoens-
town yesterday for the United States , Information -
formation thus far obtnlnublo shows that
they did not lenvo by the ordinary clmunoli
of passage. Their forfeited ball of 1,000 cnck
will bo paid by the Rational league.
At the request of counsel for the crown the
court's ' ccrtlllcato of non-appearance was at
tached to the bail bonds of Dillon and
O'Brlcn. Adjournment was then taken to
enable the orown to consider whirl steps
should bo taken , Warrants have been Issued
for the arri'st ' of the missing untloiialUt * .
The steamship companies know nothing of
the fugitives. Nothing is known at ( Juoons-
town or Movlllo of their whereabouts. A
correspondent of O'llrlon's paper , the Free-
man's ' Journal , sailed for Qiieeiistown on the
Cltvof licrlln , and ills thought that Dillon
andO'Hrlcu may bo aboard the same vessel.
Detectives have boarded nil outgolni ? stoiim-

Upon the subject of forests of the public
domain the commissioner finds that the mo&t
valuable timber on the nubile lands Is being
rapidly exhausted and the laws relating totho
subject utterly Inadequate to properly protect
either the public forests from unlawful
appropriation or the interests of tbo settlers.
Over $39,000 were received last year from
timber depredations. A provision should bo
rnado for the legitmato procuring of timber
from public lands by mill men and lumber
manufacturers for sale tonn cxtontnccessary
to supply the community in the locality In
which they operate with lumber and other
timber products needed in the settlement
thereof , but the exportation of public timber
should ho prohibited , as also should the
removal of timber from any of the reserved
lands and from mountainous regions and
other woodlands at or in the vicinity of the
hcadwmYirs or sources of streams which for
climatic , economic or public reasons should
behold permanently us forests reserves , ex
ception being mndo hi favor of settlers or
minors for their personal necessities.

grievance commlttco of the brctlicrhood on
any system of railway has power to inaugur
ate a strike , but whether the Erie commlttco

n surprise totho committee and the employes
who expected to have their demands con-
ceded.

held tonight and on Sunday night in Jersey'
City. It is thought the committee will ascer
tain the sentiment of the employes before

assort that a strike will surclv take iilaro on
Sunday.
Itviw stilted nt the Krio ofllces today that
the company was paying hlu'her average
wages than any other railroad corporation ,
and that it would bankrupt the company to
Increase the pay of the men In nccordanco
with their demands.
It is now said that the Knlghtsof Labor
are atlho bottom of the trouble nnd that tlio
principal ngltators among the 12rlo employes
are Knlghtsof Labor under disguise. It was
said that it wns the object of tlio Knights of
Labor to cause nbig strike on tliolCrlu and
then have their men stop lu and take their
places , Tbo object of the Knights , It is said ,
Is to get oven with the Brotherhood of loco
motive engineers nud the I-'edorntloa of rail
