STOIIY OF A FOUTUNK. ,
A FlBht for the Wealth of n IlrooVlyn
Miser.
NEW YORK , Nov. 2. [ Special Telegram to
the HKE. ] Nelson J. Wntcrbury , Jr. , Is coun
sel for plaintiff in an action to recover some
thing like half a million dollars which was
left unclaimed In Hrooklyn twenty years ago ,
nnd which has. been accumulating nt com
pound Interest In the treasury of New York
ever since. In 1319 the colonel of an English
regiment was ordered from Great Britain to
Canada , nnd ho took with him his two moth
erless boys , Edwin 'and William , and when
his regiment was ordered back to Kuglund a
few years later ho placed the boys In charge
of n French Catholic priest nt Auiherstburg ,
Ontario. Tlio children were to remain with
the priest nnd to bo educated by him. After
that they wcro to return to England. They
remained In school for two or three years ,
then ran away and wore never heard of
afterward by their father , who
exhausted every means to dis
cover what had become of them.
Ho died soon after his loss. In after years It
was learned that Edwin went to Michigan ,
where all trace of him was lost. William ,
however , came to Brooklyn , lived alone , nnd
was known to his neighbors us a half mad
miser. Ho was supx ] > sed to bo a Frenchman
because ho spoke English with French accent
nnd also slightly altered the spelling of his
name. In 1807 William died without issue , so
far as known. He left an estate valued ut
$ .100,000 and willed ? 'JO,000 of it to his brother
Edwin , whoso name he spelled correctly , and
whom ho had not seen since thcireseapo from
Amherstburg. Nearly as much more money
was bequeathed to friends and servants. The
remainder was left Id found an orphan asy
lum. ' Hecanso of some technical
formalities In the execution of the will ,
the court set It aside and the
noncy was locked up by the authorities.
Jtecently , ICenealy , of the Herald , hearing
of this money and muling that the name of
the wealthy Brooklynite was the same us his
own , wrote homo to England for Information
and received In reply what he considered lo
" : io incontrovertible proof of relationship to
: he dead man. Ho placed the matter in the
imnds of Walerbury nnd hopes to secure the
: noney. There are two other brothers of
IConealy , who will share the money if the
suit is successful. They are Alexander , a
Philadelphia newspaper mnn , nnd Maurice ,
who is a journalist nnd Is now somewhere in
newest. A. J. Kencnly is the son of the
'auious Dr. IConealy who defended the Tlcu-
berne claimant.
JEFF'S IjAST DAYS.

*
proachlng the Stlx.
MACON , On. , Nov. 2. [ Special Telegram to
: ho Hnr. . ] There are considerable doubts ns
o whether Jefferson Davis will return to his
solated home at Beauvoir , Miss. , alive. HU
condition , to say Iho least , is extremely pre
carious. For several years he has been
troubled with n serious affection of the
icart. The excitement of the last week
served only to nirgravuto his ailment , Since
ast Saturday he has been conllned to his bed
nnd physicians have been In dully attendance.
His faithful wife has been at his bedside con
tinually , nnd every attention has been ac
corded to the sufferer. The wound which ho
received in the Mexican war is troubling him
considerably , and bo is scarcely able to walk.
Ilo is in u very enfeebled condition , mid his
family are fearful that bo will not recover
from the exhaustion. Ho has
spoken but little since Saturday ,
and has taken but little nourishment.
Dr. Hutton , the attending physician , expres
ses great fears of his inability to leave the
city on Thursday , as was arranged before
his visit. Ho rallies at times nnd earnestly
quehtions those about him concerning the re
sult of General Gordon's speeches in Ohio
and the manner in which the southern people
ple are disposed to receive his coucillntiory
utterances. Yesterday he felt greatly im
proved and despite advice to the contrary ho
entertained the young ladies of the Wesleyan
college. When they called at 4 o'clock
Davis was helped down stairs by Mrs. Davis
and Captain Johnson. When the reception
was concluded ho returned to his room com
pletely exhausted. It is understood that his
daughters , who are the guests of the city ol
Muron , have been summoned to their fath
er's side. The end is expected at any mo
ment.
Davis is seventy-nine years of ape.
[ Press. ] The reports that Jefferson Davis
Is in"a precarious condition aru not correct.
His health is better than it has been at nn.v
time since ho loft Beauvolr. Last night lit
received a number of friends nnd conversed
with them until a into hour. This morninp
he was in Jine spirits and In better healtl
than usual.

End oftlin Convention.
KANSAS CITY , Mo. , Nov. D [ Special Telegram -
gram to the Br.r. . ] Such a Inrtfo number of
tlio cnttlcincu returned to their homes lust
night ruul tills inornluf ? that the uttentliiucu at
the third day of the convention was compiini-
tlvcly small. When the session begun , short
ly uftcr 10 o'clock , there wcro only nbout
twentyfiveoh hand to keep the oratorical
bull In motion. The pleasant weather Induced
u great iminy of the visitors to take advan
tage of the generous opportunities offered for
sightseeing. Several carriage loads loft the
Coatcs house curly in the morning and either
stopped at the exposition or the fat stock show.
The hour bcforo tho'closing of the session
yesterday afternoon was devoted to general
discussion. The different phases of plcuro-
pneumonia wcro thoroughly shaken up and
given u good airing. When the convention
was opened shortly after 10 o'clock to-day ,
Dr. Ames , chairman of the committee on reso
lutions , ruH | > rtcd concerning the oleomarga
rine resolution , as follows :
Whereas , The several interests which
COMIJHJSO the convention and the association
under whoso auspices it meets would bo
placed In iintagoivlstn by discussion and action
upon questions affecting oleomargarine legis
lation by congress and its usefulness for
effecting other and more primary objects bo
thereby impaired ; therefore
Hesolved , That it is inexpedient to discusser
or take notion upon either of the resolutions
in regard to such legislation submitted to the
convention , and that they bo laid upon the
table.
The report seemed to meet witn the hearty
approval of the members , for n unanimous
and ringing "aye" followed the call for a
vote on the adoption of the report. The com
mittee further reported that votes of thanks
were due Commissioner of Agriculture Col-
man and Dr. Salmon for their nblo papers
'touching the plcuro-pncumonia question , and
.ho legislative committee for untiring efforts
o pass the Miller Gary bill. The committee
'urthcr reported that the resolution
iffurcd yesterday by Mr. Eder , of Kansas ,
ivus too broad to bo discussed at the present
- onvention , as time could not bo afforded to
consider it. The committee therefore made
n report of "inexpedient to aet on the ques
tions. " Mr. Edcr orcoo and said : " 1 nm
satisilcd with the report of the committee on
resolutions. This matter has been seriously
considered by the cattle men of Kansas. I
11111 prepared to defend the statement made
In the resolution , but qni also willing to stand
by the committee. "
Mr. Li. S. Collln , of Iowa , Introduced a
resolution asking that the convention con
sider the importance of doing away with the
old style of brake on stock cars , and showing
Mm importance of introducing air brakes
on cattle curs. The resolution was
adopted.
The committee also adopted the resolution
ntroduced by Mr. Clay , of Chicago , late yes-
: crday afternoon. It was as follows :
Whereas , All that the dairymen hnvo in
the past nski'd was that oleomargarine and
all substitutes or imitations of butter for sale
should be required by law to be so offered in
real character and under its true name ; and
Whereas , We now have u law to that ef-
ect ; therefore bo It
Hesolved , That these substitutes for butter
[ Incriminate against the products of fat
stock not asked for by intelligent and fair
minded dairymen , and wo respectfully ask
that such discrimination bo discontinued.
The committee on transportation desiring
more time in which to prepare its.import ,
was given until the next annual meeting , and
instructed to report in print.
Ex-President Smith , in a short speech , said
that as the business of the convention had
been llnished ho.would make a motion to ad
journ sino die in order that the business
meeting might bo held at ouco before llnal
adjournment. A vote of thanks was tendered
the officers of the convention and the citi
zens of Kansas City.
The conflicting resolutions relating to oleo
margarine and butteriuo , introduced yester
day , will , It is feared , make inoro trouble be
tween the cattlemen than has the quarantine
question.
Promptly at 11 o'clock the business meet
ing of the association was opened by Presi
dent Smith. The treasurer's report was
road. It showed the association to bo in a
flourishing condition. Lust year it was de
cided by the llnanco committee to make an
assessment on the different railroad com
panies , stock yards and live stock exchanges
throughout the country. It wus intended to
raise 0,000 and nearly all has been paid in ,
leaving the association with plenty of money
to do business with. The executive com
mittee reported simply that proper efforts
had been made to place the association
on n solid financial basis. In fact ,
the chairman , in a preliminary apology , said
the only excuse ho could give for making the
report at all was the demuud made by the by
laws. On a motion made by Dr. Ames , a
committee consisting of Messrs. Funk , Wag
ner , Price , IjOggctl and Cofiin were apiraintcd
to effect n permanent organization and re
ported us follows : For president , W. A.
Towers ; vice presidents , Elmer Waahburn ,
H. E. Alvord , Azel Ames ; executive commit
tee , 0. T. Hrush , Thomas B. Walls , Jr. . Gnin-
villo Stuart , Adams Carl , Thomas Sturgis ,

Paxton , I , . N. Honham , Thomas H. Price ,
George W. Simpson , L. K. St-oilold ; secre
tary , A. II. Sardors ; treasurer , .Tuko Clay , jr.
A motion was offered thanking the retiring
president and it was adopted with three
cheers. Also a motion prevailed making all
ox-presidents cx-oflluio members of the exec
utive committee.
.lust before adjournment the subjoined reso
lution was adopted :
Whereas , It lias come to the knowledge of
this convention that almost irreparable iiimn-
cial embarrassment has resulted to some
members of this association through the ac
tion of the president in ordering the removal
of all cattle from the Cheyenne and Arapu-
hoe Indian country under peculiar terms , and
feeling that the situation was not fully un
derstood by him at the time Bald order wus
made ; therefore ,
Kesolved , That if upon on Investigation
of the matter it bo found as alleged by the
lessees that they wcro occupying the land in
good faith and under at least "as they sui > -
jKsed" a color of law and ere not guilty ol
any offense for which they should bo made to
suffer , wo deem it but Just tliat proper coin-
pcnsation should bo made iy congress to
thorn for their losses.
In accordance with an invitation extended
by n committee of local business men , all ot
whom are identified with the cattle Industries -
tries , the delegates took udvijytngo of oppor
tunities afforded to see the city. There were
liftecu carriages in the procession. Tin
route was not prearranged , but extended
over all the principal streets In the city unti
terminated at the exposition and the fat
stock show at Uivervlow park.
The place for holding the next convention
was not decided upon. The choice was loll
with the executive committee , most of tin
members of which departed for their homes
last night. A majority of thbso remaining
wore of the opinion that Kansas City wouli
not bo the spot chosen , although nil were delighted
lighted with the manner in which they hai
been received hero. It is the gcnm-ul opln
ion that St. Louis has the best chance. President
ident 'Smith was this afternoon presenter
with u gold-headed cane.

alternative of returning to work or leaving

An Inter-State Decision.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 2J1 The Inter-state com
merce commission has decided the case of
the boards of trade of Formlngton , North-
Held , Farrbault and Owatonna ( Minnesota ) ,
against the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul
railway company. The plaintiffs , who are
located on the Iowa and Minnesota division
of the road , complained that the rate on
wheat to Milwaukee and Chicago was double
that from stations on the river division ,
which is to all intents and purposes a paral
lel line. The commission holds that the com
plaint is well founded , and that wlrtlo a rea
sonable differential rate may bo allowed on
the Iowa and Minnesota division on account
of greater distance and probable larger ex
pense of transportation and greater strin
gency of competitive forces on the river divi
sion , the difference above the present rate on
the river division should not exceed 'iy cents
per 100.

"BUNKO. "
31. Quad's Experience In Chicago
Ho lllows in $ UO.
Detroit Free Press ; You rend nboul
the bunko gumo every dny or twobutdo ,
you know what it Sometliinfrwnssaid
in n Chicago paper the oilier day ubout
my being bunkoed in that city a couple
of weeks ngo. I deny the allegation in
the .most uigorous manner. loan take
tlio reporter who wrote that item by
the heels nnd make him wish in about n
minute that ho had boon horn n hundred
years earlier or later. It is the basest
slander the meanest campaign scandal
the boldc&t falsehood since HU2.
Before proceeding further lot mo say
that the word bunko is sometimes
spelled bunco. You can have it oithet
way you like , but the gnmo is nearly
always the sauioand till victims feel the
bumo.
Pluy the bunko game on mo I Why , I
know that game thirty years ago , and I
claim to bo able to toll a bunko-stoorcr
from a lawyer a whole block away. In
deed , I've had bunko men drop around
to toll mo that I was the very hist man
on the face of the earth they'd think of
running up against. I might bo-ropod
in with a gold brick , but on bunko
never.
I had just come out of the Tromonl
house ami turned up State street , when
a good looking young follow halted mo ,
extended his hand for a shako and ex
claimed ;
"Why , Quad , old follow , how arc you ,
and how are nil the folks in DolroSti"1
I smiled. I smiled because I know he
was a bunko stecrer. Ho hud got my
name and town from the hotel register ,
after the usual fashion. But 1 shook
his hand and replied that I was pretty
well , and that Detroit was daily improv
ing. What's the use of trying to crusli
a bunko steerer into a lifeless mass
without a moment's warning. Besides
I wanted a little fun , nnd I know ho was
a bunko Bteeror-r-know it as well as ]
know that I was in Chicago.
"I'm awful glad to see any ono from
Detroit , " ho continued. "J suppose yov
sco father almost every day V"
I assured him that I saw his fathoi
semi-daily , and that the old gout wai
.looking as happy as a Hubbara squash
at fair tlmo. This Boomed to relieve hli
it\tonso anxiety on that point and lie
invited mo to hava a oigar. No roar
who can get a cigar at the expense .0
a bunljo stooror should refuse it. W <
entered a gilded don of deviltry , devoted
voted to the sale of tobacco and got oui
woods , and as we sauntered un State
, street -wo Boomed a bund. of brothers. . '
know what his next move would bo and
was ready for him.
Wo had not pone two blocks when ho
halted nnd said :
"Ah ! this call to mind. I bought a
lottery ticket the other dav and it drew
a little prize. This mustoo the' place
where tuoy cash it. Yes , this is the
place. "
I congratulated him on his luck. I
told him I had boon buying lottery
tickets Blnco the year 1 and never yet
struck n prize. His next move would bo
to nsk mo lo go up stairs with him and
got the cash. I've scon the gntno
plnyod fifty times , you know.
' By the way. coino up with m6 n
mtnuto , " ho said , ns ho looked at his
ticket. "These follows mny bo all right ,
or they may bo full of tricks. At any
rate , I'd ' like a friend along. "
I wont. Who's afraid of n bunko-
stcoror ? I was chuckling to mycolf all
the time , and was willing to give the
fellow a little moro rope. Wo ascended
to the third floor and entered nn oftlco.
There wore two well dressed men in
there. They didn't seem to know my
friend , and ho looked around as If ho
hadn't been In that very room five hun
dred times before.
"Thls-this ticket hit a a prb.c yes
terday , diddn't It ? " ho asked as he pro
duced the paper.
"Yes , sir $350 , " was the reply "Jim ,
give the gentleman his money. "
It was counted out. Then the gentle
men explained to rae thnt they had a
daily drawing , nnd cashed pri7.es at
once. That's the way the bunko game
is always playc'd , and nobody need betaken
taken in. The tickets wore $2 each ,
and there was to bo a1 drawing right
away. If I wanted to invest they
would" .
"I in vest 1 Ring in on mo nn old chest
nut of that color 1 Take mo for a gran
ger from Posoy County ! But , after a
little reflection I thought I'd try it. It
might bo all right after all. While
they looked like bunko men , ono can't
always judge by looks. I invested , $0
and hit a prize of $10. I was $4 ahead ,
and I'd give them the grin and walk
out , I . But if I invested the $10 I'd
probably hit $ UO , and-and-woll , I inves
ted the $10. I lost It , but was assured
that I'd have hotter luck next timo. I
know that ns well as they did. No
bunko man can teach mo anything. I
invested $10 moro and lost. Then I put
in $30 and lost. Then I remembered
that I had agreed to meet a man at the
First National Bank at 10 o'clock , and I
bade thorn good morning and tripped
gayly down stairs , stopping at the door
long enough to nsk them if it was a good
day for suckers.
Now , that's all there was to it , and
that's all the foundation that Chicago
paper hud for saying that I was bunkoed.
I identified the stcoror the moment ho
addressed me. I know the office up
stairs was a snide the minute I entered
it. I know the drawing' was a fraud ,
and therefore the fellows had no show.
Oh , yes , I loft fcomo money up there ,
but when a man sees three young men
trying hard to earn nn honest living ,
he's pizon mean if ho won't help 'em a
littlo.
The Oenlus of the Knllrond Kin p.
Edward T. Peters , in the Forum for
November : Able and popular writers
dwell with great emphasis on the vast
services-rendered by certain men in in
creasing production or economizing
distribution. I. think , however , that a
tendency to hero worship may bo dis
cerned in their readiness to measure
the services of such man by their suc
cess in accumulating wealth. Ono
might think , for example , from some of
thois statements that the reduction
which has taken plnco within the past
twenty years in tno charges for trans
portation between the west and the sea
board had been mainly , if noi wholly ,
duo to a marvelous capacity for direct
ing railroad business possessed and ox-
oreised by such men as Jay Gould and
tlio late Commodore Viindorbilt ; where
as the obvious truth isthat a number of
causes have been operating within the
quarter of a century which must have
led to a largo cheapening of transporta
tion under any ordinarily emeiont
management. The homestead law ,
enacted in 1862 , placed a high premium
on the settlement of the public land
states and territories , while thousands
of miles of railroad , built mainly at the
public expanse , facilitated access to the
vacant lands , and furnished the settlers
with a means of marketing their pro
duce. These subsidized roads in the
remote west sesved as feeders to the
main trunk lines further cast , and , in
connection with the general growth of
population , so increased their business
that it became an easy matter to do that
business at a smaller relative cost. In
the meantime , a revolution in the man
ufacture of steel enormously lessoned
the expense arising from the wear of
rails , while improvements in the con
struction of locomotives and rolling
stock resulted > n further economics.
It is to such causes , rather than to
any phenomenal power of management
on the part of the few men , that we owe
the bulk of the reduction which his :
taken place in the price of transporta
tion ; and , if wo accept the sort of man
agement that has been directed to
"freezing out" or "squeezing out , "
small shareholders nnd small corpora
tions , and to keeping the price of trans
portation as far above its cost "as the
tralllc would boar , " it is not to extraor
dinary management , but mainly to such
causes as those pointed out in the last
paragraph , that the great Wall street
fortunes identified with railroad invest
ments owe their origin. It may bo a
convonicce to certain minds to invest
our Goulds and Vandorbilts with the at
tributes of domi-gods by way of ac
counting for phenomena that cannot
otherwise , bo squared with their own
soi'ial nnd economic theories ; but un
prejudiced inquirers after the trutharo
juslified in seeking a less thaumuturgi-
cal explanation ; and when it lies as
close at hand aa in the yresent instance ,
they may be pardoned for giving it tlio
preference.

nro snojcct to cntnrrlinl nllectlon nnd tlio uls-
enso hns been left uucured , the catarrh Invari
ably , soinetlineH slowly , extends down the wind
pipe nnd into the bronchial tubes , which tubes
convey the nlr Into the dlll'ercnt parts of the
limps. The tubes become nlfccted from the
swulllnfj mill the mucous arising from entnrrh ,
nnd. In some Instunces , bt-cimio plugged up , so
thnt the nlr cnuiiot gut In us freely ns it should.
.Shortness of bivnth follows , nnd the pntlent
brenthes with labor nnd dlltlculty.
lu either cuso them Is n sound of crnckllng

the discnso the brent htng Is usually moro rapid
tlmn when In health. The pntleut has also hot
dnshos over his body.
The pntn which accompanies this condition Is
of n dull chnrncter , felt in the chest , behind the
brentt hone or under the shoulder blnde. Thn

the morninp on rlsln ; ; , or going to bed nt night ,
and It limy be In the llrst evidence of the disease
extending Into the lungs.
Soiuetime.s there nro tits of coughing Induced
by the tough mucus so violent ns to cause vom

tcr , which Indicates that the small tubes in tha
lungs nro now nllected. With this ttiere nro of
ten streaks of blood mixed with the mucus. In
Homo cnses the patient becomes very pule , hn.s
fever , uud expectorates before any cough iip-
penrs.
In seine cnses small , mnsses of cheesy mile
stance nro spit upwhich , when pressed between
the lingers , emit n bud odor. In other cases par-
tides of n hard , chnlkv iintnre nro spit up. Tim
raising of cheesy or chalky lumps indicates se
rious mischief at work In the lungs.
in some cnses rntnrrh will extend into the
lungs in n few weeks ; in other cnses it mny bo
months , and oven venrH , before the disease nt-
tucks the Itinus BUlliciently to cnuso nerlons In

disease hnfe developed to such a point the pa

With bronchial cntnrih there Is moro or less
