Chicaoo, March 17. A determined
move on the part of all the atrong line
in the United States is being made to
drive scalpers out of business. A nearly
a can be learned the movement baa
been placed in the hands of the variou
associations with instructions to drive
the scalpers to the wall. There is an
apparent unanimity on the part of all
the lines, bat it i noticeable that in all
case the place ha been fought and
nrged by the strong line. One of the
leaden of the movement showed, ae
among it first fruit, a telegram from
North Carolina. It said that a law had
just been signed by the governor and
made effective, forbidding anyone to
barter in railroad tickets except that he
were an authorized representative of the
company whoee ticket he sold. The
same law has almost paased in Minne
sota, and within the next two years will
be pushed before every state legislature,
Tne movement toward anoiiHning nn
limited tickets, and which is in a fair
way to become effective through the
New York meeting, is a part of the gen
eral plan. A conservative estimate
places the yearly loss to railroads on ac
count or tne scalping business at f d,

ment of its outstanding mileacre. Con
sequentlr the Alton notified Chairman

authorizing it to put into effect a 2 cent
rate on mileage tickets. This authority.
of course, extends to all lines in the
Western Passenger association, and
there may be a general war of rates. A
prominent railroad man said here that
he feared the tickets in question would
not be redeemed unless tne Atchison
puts no the money, and therefore a war
ot rates seems more tnan probable.
Welera Freight Association.
Chicago, Ills., March 17. Chairman
Midgely has postponed for one week the
April meeting of the Western Freight
association. 1 his was done on the writ
ten requests of Presidents Miller.IIughitt
and Cable, and vice-fresidents Harris
and Springer to avoid a conflict with
the quarterly meeting of tne Western
Traffic association. The story waa im
mediately started that this reqnest bad
the contemplated movement to break up
the Western Freight association and
merge it into the Western Traffic. The
signers who are in the city deny this
story and declare there is not a point of
disagreement between the member of
the two associations now that the Bur

the meeting of the Adventists confer

International Tract society. The read
ing matter distributed under the man
agement of this organization has in
formed many of the teachings of the
denomination and so made! many con
vert. In New Zealand alone $1,200
worth of books are sold monthly and
reports from Australia were not less
encouraging. The general foreign book
agent wrote from South Africa that his
supply of printed matter waa far too
small, wun wnat doom ne naa dis
tributed innch good had been wrought,
and he urged that more be sent him,
A consolidation of publishing interest
was recommended, as by that means
larger field could be covered and the
work of distribution be more harmon
ious. In the afternoon another meet

Temperance association was called
Dr. J. II. Kellogg, the president, i

DecATtR. Ills., March 17. The body
of W. H. Crawford, the murderer,

noon at the Hpangler graveyard in this
county. 1 here were no services. Old
man Crawford is much afraid the grave
will be robbed and publicly stated that
dynamite cartridge were placed in it
and it win be guardod.
Sheriff Perl is bitterly denounced by
tne people generally because lie permit
ted the turnkeys before and after the
execution to charge the crowd ten cent
each to see the gallows. It is known
that a foot of the hanging rope was sold
for a dollar, ae it had blood on it. An
effort will be made to have the sheriff

The Galena was almost hidden from

the opinion that all three of the vessel
are doomed.

it the bottom of rather a lively political
ikirmish how going on here over a post

that Governor Osborne of that state
came on to take a hand in the fight.
come time ago a mmn joiinson was ap
pointed postmistrees at Silver Lake,
Kan,, on the recommendation of Repre

zens of the place, but it no w turns out
that Miss Johnson's brothers and ancles
and male relatives generally were
among those Farmer' Alliance people
of Kansas who brought about , the po
litical upheaval and retired Senator In
galls. That they khonld now be re
garded even in so minor a way aa the
appointment of their sister as post
mistress is a thing which the Kansas
Republican cannot understand and do
not like. Governor Osborne comes to
plead with the president to aid the Re
publicans of tbat state by the appoint
ment of a straight-out Republican. On
the other hand, the Alliance people in
siat tbat they have demonstrated suffi
cient strength to be entitled to nil some

New Orleans, March ; 7. After am,
aping lynching OB Saturday, Joasfh
rrwenzano, whom the Mas ha?)
wanted to get out of the way for
time, makes a publio confeaaiosj ntade to
mm by Jim Caruso, killed by tne mo
of Saturday. Caruso waa lnit ated mto
the Mafia by Matranza, who
quitted by the jury, and released from
prison. Caruso said he only intended
one meeting; that he went in, and Mat
ranza held up a skull in his left
and swore him to abide by the dedeion
of the order. He aaid he was informed
after taking the obligation tbat the ob
ject was to kill flume who were against
the Mafia gang. The way it was done
was to select the victim and invite him
to dinner and afterwards do him up.
Caruno aaid afterwards that he did not
like to commit murder, but waa willing
to rob, so he went to the Italian chnreh
and swore before the altar that he
would have nothing more to do with the
Maiia. a iter wards,' kowever. he was
frightened back, with the result of
Inning hi life. Caruso also aaid that
Rocci and Politz belonged to the order.
Many Italians who were nnder the
Mafia ban are delighted at Saturday's
nprixing and say that the Mafia will now
be broken up. Even tlie Italian consul
received a letter threatening him in
case he did not amdst in getting the
accused off. The dintriet attorney I in
vestigating the jury liriliery charges. -
A Maul ted by Italian.
Chicaoo, March 17. Frank T. Hoga
lon. of No. S2 Campbell avenue, will be
sareful in the future how he talks about
the Mafia. At 2:30 a. in. he stood wait
Ing for a State streetcar. Three Ital
ians were near him. Hogadon talked
f the New Orleans affair, and said
svery member of the Mafia should be
banged. The words had hardly been
ottered when the Italian drew knives
and attacked him. He was severely cut
about the body, and would have been
killed outright had not his cries brought
several men to his assistance. The Ital
ians ran away, and no description of
them is known. Hogadon was assisted
to the Harrison street stat ion, where his
wounds were dresed and found not to
be serious. The spot where the assault
is said to have taken place is near the
centre of the Italian colony. Chief of
Police Marsh takes no stock in the Mafia
part of the story. The victim, he says,
Is a piano player in a low resort, and
probably got into a broil with the men.

Strict orders had been issued to deny

The smell of burning flesh permeated
the atmosphere, but only one body was

The list of the dead has been length
