Thcro has been n good deal of discussion
nmong congressmen nnd the press hero rein-
. trve to the tariff views of Hcprescntntlvo
Fuller , of the Fourth Iowa district. Mr.
Fuller's name was mentioned frequently fern
n ixjsltlon on the house committee on ways
nnd means , but It wus argued against him
that ho wns a free trader and therefore not a
" " "representative republican. A card , signed
A'J.-S. S. , " Is published In this morning's
National Hepubllcan , 'under the tltlo "Mr.
Fuller Not n Free Trader , " In which It is
-r jtnld thnt the reixirt that Mr. Fuller voted for
the consideration of the Morrison hill In the
last congress was untruoand that Mr. Fuller
Is not a free trader , ollhrugh n "firm believer
Ih the necessity of n reduction of thu surplus ,
nnd consequently hu fnvois a wlso tariff re-
j-vision. " The card announces further that
'Ho Is opposed to any legislation that will
endanger the great system of protection
under which our country has grown to its
present marvelous distinction , commercially
and politically. " Mr. Fuller Is ono of the
ntrougcct men In the house , nnd his name
was considered by the speaker for n position
on the committee on ways und means , not
only on account of his well defined tariff
* views , but his general representative
' '
character of the northwestern interests.
Bhouhl ho not bo selected ns a member of the
committee , however , It will not bo on ac
count of his alleged extreme tariff views.
Till * TAItll-T FIOIIT.
rf- President Cleveland expects to have the
tariff light open In the house before the 20th
! "bf January , und holies to see a bill of some
Bert passed by tlio end of February. Ho has
two or three three times since congress con-
,4 vcued , sent for Mr. Carlisle nnd Mr. Hamlull
nnd Implored each , separately , to get together
nnd do something. .Both men have promised
to not let local Interests stand In the way of
Vnn agreement. It is understood that Mr.
' JlulidnU has pledged hiss < | | | | M > rt of Wllllt llO
tails "a reasonable bill , " ono that Will not
affect tin ) iron and steel' and other manufact
urers. That seine kind of a tariff bill will bo
passed Is the belief of almost every one.

SKNATOn BAWYIIIt'S SfUCULATIONS.
I hear u story about Senator Sawyer nnd
tits uttltudo on the continuation of Mr.
Lnnuir that should bo corrected. It Is to the
effect that the senator secured an overruling
of u decision of Commissioner Sparks In tlio
Omnlia rnllroad rase und that ho intended to
ehow his gratitude In the landing light In the
Bonnto against the necretury's continuation.
tJcnator Sawyer , the story goes , had Invested
larguly hi thu Qmnlm bonds nnd thu overrul
ing gavo'them a rise. Of his alleged sitecn- .
, the senator himself suysf "When I
came to tha senate and < wus appointed a
' mefnbpr of-tho railroad committee , almost
tay llrst business step wits to sell out every
railroad Hociirjty that I had in my possession
Avith the exception of 1000 shares of stock In
r. aiow railroad in the northern part of Wls-
cousin. This stock I hud purchased not as
nn Investment , but merely to promote
the construction of the railroad.
AsIt would be hurtful to thu enterprise to
soil thu stock , I concluded thnt thu.holdlng of
It was not contrary to my public duty. In all
the tlmo that I have been on the railroad
committee ns chairman I never boughtorheld
u dollar's worth of railroad securities except
ihoso. " Senator Sawyer admits that when
the president was In the northwest lust full
tie went to him nnd asked him If Mr. Lamur
would be nominated ton place on the supreme
bench , and In doing HO observed that it would
bo u good thing .to do : also that when ho
did this the president inquired if Lamur
could bo continued. It is stated that Senator
Bawyor replied that hu would supjiort the
confirmation of Mr. Lanmr and pledged the
president that hu would scu that thu nomina

the foot of.lho steps leading up to the front
door of his residence nt 112(1 ( Jackson street.
It is a wco girl baby , and the person dei > oslt-

nnmo of the donor. One of the gentlemen
rooming with thu justice discovered thu bun
dle securely wrapped In shawls nbout fii.'to.
It was carried Into the house , and on opening
the bundle , the child was disclosed. She Is a
tiny creature , weighing loss than five pounds ,
nna Is probably about n week old. The
clothes about her nrc nrat and clean. Her
little oycs are soronnd the lids matted to
gether. Wrapped Up With her WHS a bottle
containing some eye medicine , on which was
written in a small. clTumlnatu hand. "For
baby's oycs. Use a few drops in the eye
Immediately utter Washing. " Thd printed
label on the bottle had been removed , nnd
this substituted , sn there wns no clue ns to
whore the medicine had IH.-CII botight. There
wcro no marks or Initials of any klnu nbout
the clothes , Mrs. Head got n bottle of milk
for the little thing , nnd the way It consumed
it showed it was very hungry. Mr. Head
telephoned the Unit to the central police
station , but the Jailor telephoned back :
"For heaven's suko don't send It up here ,
for wo have no wet nnr.se , "
Thu Child's hospital was next telephoned

thcro Is no kind of doubt about it in the world

An Assumption or Confidence.
( CopvrluM If&riiy Jiimfd Gordon llcnnrtt. ]
LONDON , Deo. 27. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to the BKI : , ! While con-
lldcnco ,1s still professed in high
official quarters hero that pence will bo
maintained , I am Informed that great In
creasing misgivings really prevail. Hritlsh
nmbussndors abroad may communlcato their
suspicions and opinions , but they know noth
ing of the cecrct springs of notion. The
newspaper , with Its myriad sources of In
formation , Its vigilant representatives In
every circle , has far surer means of ascer
taining the truth than any embassy or lega
tion. The British government ; is fairly well
served by Its diplomatists , that is to suy , they
mean well , though they are no match for
Kussinns , or even Germans. None of them
lic
communicated anything about the recall of
Count Cortlo until rumors began to appear
lie the newspapers. The government hears
lia many events which never happen , but ,
apart from interesting essays and specula
tions , its costly stuff of ambassadors is not
worth a straw as a news collecting agency.
Salisbury probably gets more information -
formation every morning from the
papers than ho can extract
from the foreign ofllco dispatch boxes. It is
pretty ' certain , however , within the last few
days that the belief has gained ground among
ofllciuls that war is now inevitable. Some
maintain that Bismarck Is quietly forcing on
the issue as he did upon Napoleon. Others
see" reason for thinking that the czar has
made up his mind that the great struggle had
better como now than later on. Of com
promises , which scttlo nothing , ho has had
enough , and the adoption of a fabtan policy
has thus far proved an injury to him and an
advantage to his enemies. If Russia is to
wield control over the Ualkan peninsula , now
is the time to strike. Such is believed to bo
the czar's opitiion , and there is no parliament
or constitution to prevent him taking meas
ures to carry it into effect. As regards the posi
tion of England , one of the most significant
circumstances is that during the last few
days ministerial journals have entirely
ceased to scatter hints nbout moving the
English fleet and backing up Austria.
That line was dropped at tho'
very time Randolph Churchill , was an
nounced to bo in St. Petersburg n curious
coincidence. Then the .unground wires
were set in motion lest any one should .sup .
pose that Churchill's movements could in
fluence the ministry. Paragraphs were acci
dentally inserted in the newspapers suggest-
i ng that the government may possibly have the
ox-chancellor on a mission to the czar. Thcro
are ' people who will swallow anything and
some absolutely swallowed that. 'It- was
about as likely that Churchill would accept
a mission to Kusslu from Lord Salisbury as
that Lord Salisbury would offer it to him.
Two greater improbabilities you could not
fiiuUn the whole field of terrestrial politics.
If the government believes that it can get on
at homo as well without Churchill as with
him , they uro not very likely to bp persuaded
they need him in foreign affairs. Churchill
went to Russia because ho bad a curiosity to
see the country , uud it was hardly likely that
the Kusslan government would allow him to
wander about unnoticed. That ho had no ofll-
clal mission you vjill see when I remind
you'that down to the moment of his depart
ure the ministerial journals announced that
ho was going to Spain. To-day nil clubland
is asking what is the meaning of the czar in
viting Churchill to u special interview ! Was
it done to please Lord Salisbury ! Yes , thcro
uro people not in asylums who are actually
capable of putting the second Question. The
czar and his visitor were not thinking of what
Salisbury would like or dislike. What they
talked about will probable make itself visible
in future events. One thing is certain the
czar shows that ho is a more astute politician
than many men in England who have settled
oncufor all that Churchill is au extinct vol
cano.
Nothing more ia said about sending the
British fleet to act Informally with Italy or
Austria , and the czar and Lord Randolph
have had a long conversation together , the
Russian foreign minister-having flrst had
several interviews with the young English
statesman. It may suit some persons to ex
aggerate those incidents and others to make
light of them. In any case they will bear
fruit. It was very wise on the
czar's part to have a frank talk with the ono
"Englishman who , next to Gladstone , can im
press the masses of ills countrymen. It was
doubly wise If the czar know that the British
government was being led or pushed Into an
understanding of any kind with Austria , for
then Russia will no longer be at the mercy of
any English press inspired only by her en
emies. Her case has a Shanco of rocetviug
duo attention , though but the voice , of ono
man may at first tuko it up. That voice ,
however , can reach a long way. The Cri
mean war might easily have been prevented
by im Instrumentality not more potent. It Is
sometimes said that 41m czar is mad. Evi
dently ho has lucid intervals. Probably ho
is only mad nor-nor-west. It all comes to
this : If wo hear no more of an Austrian al-
liancc against Russia , with England started on
the incline plane which leads to war , wo shall
probably hear no moro of Lord Randolph's
historic visit to the car. If , on the contrary , the
Austrian sentinel as seen in front of the
British oftleo instead of on his own ramparts ,
n difference of opinion in this country may
sjieedily manifest Itself. War with Hussiu Is
not what the English people want. If Ger
many and Austria have a quarrel with the
czar , let them fight It out among eacli other.
England has raked the chestnuts out of the
tire often enough. The democracy Is now In
power , and it means to have peace until it is
directly attacked. It will not drag ono of its
most trusted leaders for taking the pains to
inform himself as to the true opinion and in
tentions of the monarch who is aecuscjd of
trying to precipitate n war upon Europe. The
fable of the wolf and tUs iamb Is perpetually
being enacted os the great stage of politics ,
but 1U time Hussia may not bo playing the
part of the wolf.

ber of that firm is now out of u Job , his em
ployer , N. D Frcdricksen , having refused
longer to keep In his employ a man with such
a record as Hulfer has been shown to have.
There has been no positive proof ns to who
the senior member of the bogus firm Is , but
as a man named Miller was also in Mr. Frod-
rickscn's employ , the Inference has been
drawn that he was the party. This , how
ever , Miller has denied , and to make the
denial moro emphatic and to relieve himself
of the suspicion , ho went before Justice
Anderson yesterday und made the following
affidavit :
Charles II. Miller , being by mo first , dub-
sworn , on his oath says that ho is In the em
ploy of N. Fredrickson , doing business on 1
South Thirteenth street , city of Omaha. Af- 1I
.riant further says thnt ho has no connection I
whatsoever with the firm of Miller , Bulfor &
Co. , referred to in an article in the Omaha
BEK some days ago ; that the article referred
to has been the source of a great deal of an
noyance to the afllnnt because of the simi
larity of the name of ono of the members of
said firm , nnd therefore I am compelled , in
justice to myself , my employer nnd my
friends , to take this method of setting myself
right before the people.CHARLES

A Snuke Charmer's Fate.
Friday L rue for years past had been
a daring handler of the most poisonous
snakes , and his terrible death at his
homo in Chinchilla yesterday was re
ceived with feelings of horror all
through this section , where lie had fre
quently shown his prowess in subduing
the dangerous reptiles , which ho had
made his houseliold pots. The lust pub.-
lic exhibition given by Loruo was in this
city during the fair.
On Thursday evening a parly of
friends were calling upon him. and , as
usual , , ho , took them into tno snake
room to exhibit his strange pots. As
lie was handling n blucksnnko a rattler
jumped out of the box , nnd the guests in
the room at once made a dash for a
place of safety. Xeruo quietly placed
the blacksuako back into its box and then
rushed for the loose snakp , which was
slashing the nir with his tail and making
Hie room resound with the clatter of
his seventeen rattles. The snake
charmer , who had hut ono leg , having
lost the other while fighting for the
union , grasped a chair , and , moving it
forward , rested himself upon it while ho
reached forward nnd grasped the snake
by the tatl. Swiftly the rattler darted
round and sank its fangs into Lcruo's
left hand , but before loosing his grip
tha chaimer dashed the snake into its
box and secured it.
The poison soon began to assert itself ,
and , despite the use of every antidote
nt hand with which the man always
kept himself bupplicd , it extended
through the arm and into' the body.
The limbs and body began swelling rap
idly. The skin grew highly discol
ored , streaked with crimson and
deep black. The doctors were hastily
summoned , but all their medical skill
could do was to administer opiates to relieve
lievo the sufferings and delirium of
Leruo. The swelling also extended to
the head , and the loft arm increased in
size until the skin fairly burstod. The
sufferings of the man wore of n. most
terrible nature , and from the time ho
was poisoned by the fangs of the ser
pent to his death the contortions of his
body in the delirious attacks were
most repulbive.
Her Voice Was to Blame.
Texas Sittings : There was nn excit
ing scene one day last week in an Austin
court. The neighbors of Gabo Snod-
grnss , living on Austin avenue , wore
compelled to have him arrested. Ho
had whipped his wife and her screams
were so terrific that a crowd at a haloon
ten blocks distant put their untouched
glasses back on the bar and went to the
door to see what was the matter. I3oth
Cube and his wife wore in court ,
"What do you mean , sir ; " tnid his
honorstornly , ' 'by-such cruel treatment
of her whom yon vowed at the altar to
love und cherish V"
Gabo assumed u porsuusivo attitude
and emplmsi/ed every word he said by
the most extravagant gestures. Ho
was laboring under intense mental ex
citement.
' 'I'll ' explain it ter yer , jodga. Foah

he gave Matildy n kick that would have

hands up and opened her mouth as big
aa that of u circus hippopatumua. She
gave u prolonged yell that caiibod two
teams to run away , and made everybody
in the court room hold their hands to
their cars.

she subsided , "is yer gwluo ter punish

I SHE LOVES TO FIGHT.
HWB
A Clint With Mm. Hntllc SU-wnrt ,
"Tltc Fcnmle John Ii. Hnlllvnn. "
one would be'Uovo that the woman who
wit in room No. 7 at the Spencer house
last evening , talking with tin Hxprosn
young man. was the champion woman
prizefighter of America Mrs. Hattlo
Stewart.
Though built from a mould made for
casting a man , Mrs. Stewart is not mas
culine in looks , save for her short hair.
Her face is round and attractive , and
her voice is pleasant. The vernacular
ot the pugilist and snort sounded
strange from her lips , ana her eyes evi
dently sincere interest in snorting mat
ters especially prizefighting was a
novelty , to smy the least. From Malno
to California Hattie Stewart is known to
H port nig men ns "Tho Female John L.
Sullivan , " and she is proud of her title.
On November 11 lust a full-page picture
of her adorned the Now York Police
Ga/otto , and she treasures it in a scrapbook -
book well filled with other press notices
f ho has received.
"I like to fight , " said sho. "As a girl
at school in Philadelphia I was always
fighting with boys. I was born and
brought up in Philadelphia. I learned
Ixixing and club-swinging in 1870 , when
1 was twenty years old. For throe years
I taught boxing to ladies in the Norfolk
( Va. ) gymnasium. Those southern
women are pretty tough , too. They can
put on the gloves with any man. All
they care for is hort-o-racing and
sports. "
"Have you seen the chnllego of Mrs.
Alice Hobson , of Pittsburgh , printed in
the Now York World of November 27
last ? She offers to light you to a finish
for $1,000 a side. "
' "Yes , I have seen it , and have an
swered it through the World. I will
moot her at any time or place , and will
fight her for any amount. She has not
replied to my answer. I think she is
bluffing. They say slip is jealous of mo
because I was too familiar with her first
husband. Somebody has boon putting
tip a job on hpr , I guess.
'Airs. Itobinson , 1 am told , in twenty-
seven years old , is a brunutto , live foot
six , who lights at 160 pounds. Her IUIK-
hund is a master painter at Out ton , near
Pittsburg. She's taking four lesions a
week in boxing , I hear , with Tom Con
nors , the wrestler , ns her trainer. They
say that she and her husband own
$10,000 worth of property. If t had that
much money I'd quit the business as a
profession.
My fighting weight is between 1W )
nnd'lOO pounds , in tights , though I pull
up 100 pounds now. 1 haven't been do
ing any work lately. I can soon get
down to 100 pounds by banging away at
the sand bag a few hours each day. I
can take off 15 pounds a week if it s for
a light.
' Hero's a picture of Annie Lewis. I
licked him at Houston , Tex. , on Febru
ary 27 , 1885. A'match was first made for
us at Now Orleans for $200 u side , but
but the sheriff interfered nndvo had to
quit. She was the hardest woman I
over defeated , but I did it in less than
two minutes. That's the great trouble ,
in my business the sheriff. "Whenever
I get a chance to fight , oven if it's ad
vertised as only a friendly 'sot-to , ' the
authorities got on to us nnd stop the
mill. All the work I do now has to bo
in private.
' 'Annie Lewis is dead now , poor girl.
She began to advertise herself as
champion female boxer of the world.
This galled mo , because I know I could
lick her. Wo mot , und I offered to spar
her for tun , to take the conceit out of
her. She wouldn't do that , but wanted
to fight for ! f.5tM ) The contest was finally
arranged for $200 , at Houston. Wo
were to have fought eight rounds , Mar
quis of Queeiisborry rules for scientific
points , but I knocked her out in the second
end round. I got the stakes and all of
the excursion money the fight \yas a
little way out of town.
"How old am IV I was born on Octo
ber 27,18-58. My parents were Germans.
I was married to llichard Stewart , my
present husband , at Norfolk. Ho was
master of the sword at the gymnasium
where I taught boxing to women.
"Did I over fight with a many Oh
yes , many times. My husband don't
like to have mo flghtjwlth mon , because
it is no credit to tncm if they knock mo
out , und if the men are defeated the
crowd always says it wasa'hipoodromo. '
I defeated a big bruiser named Jones in
Missouri once , and have fought several
'draws' with men. 1'vo had
some unprofessional fights with
men , too. I licked a baggage-
smasher at Pittsburg , at the station
of the Pittsburg and Cleveland road ,
not long ago. His nnmo was Kinnoy.
You see my husband nnd I were go
ing from Cleveland through to the
south. I had a fine bull pup that I paid
express charges on from Cleveland clear
through. Wo .had to transfer from ono
depot to another at Pittsburg , and Kinney
noy wanted to charge me $1 for taking
the dog across town. I told him I'd
only pay SOc that is all it was worth.
Ho waid if I didn't pay his price he'd
keep the dog , so I took it away from
him. I had to knock him down and
lick him before he'd give up the dog ,
but I 'got there' all the same. Yes , I
was arrested , and so was my husband ,
and wo lost one night's 'work , ' but wo
didn't have to pay a lino.
"I whipped a man in Kanbas City
once , too. Ho came into a box in a
theater whore I was sitting and insulted
mo. I bet he'll never insult another
woman I laid him out and gave him a
black eyo. I don't like to do thobo
things , but men must bo decent , that's
all.
"Most of the women I meet in the
ring are no good. They won't stand up
and give the people the worth of their
money. After ono or two rounds , if they
get a'-straight' in'tho head , they go off
crying. I hear there's a woman in Lon
don who is very clover with her lists. I
want to meet her. Porhnps Dick and
I will go to Europe in the spring.
' Why didn't that woman in Pitts
burg come out with her challenge after
1 licked Kinney ? That's the way with
these bluffers. They wait until I'm
hundreds of miles away and then oiler
to light mo. No doubt when I'm down
in Texas in a few weeks from now bomo
Buffalo woman will challenge mo.
"No , I have done no 'work' in Buffalo.
Last week I swung Indian clubs at the
Adolphi , and took part in a farce with
the company. My husband is up there
to-night. Ho ia a musician and a com
edian , but ho can fight too. Ho has had
a severe attack of pleurisy and has had
to glvo up fighting. His last match was
with Murccllus Bnkor of Boston.
"I don't call mybcif champion of the
world , though I believe I can Hck that
London woman , lam the acknowleged
champion of America. ,
"Will you light any woman in the
world ? "
"Yes , you may publish in the Express
" und Mrs.
to-morrow this challengeund
Stewart wrote out the following :
"I will fight any woman In America ,
Europe or Australia , to the finish , for
gl.OOOa side , with hard or soft gloves ,
nt any place or time thnt she may bo-
lect , arrangements to bo in ado ana

"I have given exhibition boxing

A UNJQUE AILROAD.
One Man the Hole Operator of the
Whole Concern.
A correspondent writing from Adol
phi , O. , says : This old but piolurosqno
village , whoso corporation includes tlio
northeast cornelof Hess eounty , in ti
terminus at this time of u railroad thnt
has no parallel in the United States.
The corporate iiiinio is pretentious
enouL'h. It is the Cincinnati , Uoeklnp
Valley V Iluntlngton i-ailroad , which
would cover n line from t'lneinnatl
north ot Chillieotlio , theneo to the
Hoeking valley and to llnntington , on
the Ohio river , n distance , of ISO niiles.
But the road is but ten miles in length.
as built , running from Adelphi to Kins-
ton all in Ros eounty. It Is substan
tially the creation of ono 111:111 : , nnd his
present relation to it makes it a road
unlike any other.
The line could scarcely bo better.
Leaving the Seioto Valley railroad at
Kingston , it runs nearly duo oust , do-
Heeling a little to the south to touch
Il.iUsvillo , ton miles to Adolphi. The
track lies almost all the way on the sm-
fneo of the ground. There is but ono
little bridge , one short low trestle , and
almost no cuts. A considerable portion
of it is in the fertile prairie which
strotehes across to the west from
Adolphi to Kingston , and it nil runs
througo rieli and productive fnrm'ng
liuuls. Moreover , it opens to thu m r-
kots of the \\orlil those line lands ,
which have hitherto b on dependent
on long hauls by wagons for nil limit-
supplies nnd for transportation if nro-
dueo.
The town of Adelphi owes its exist
ence in the llrst plaeo to the fact that it
wiison the line of travel iu "curly
times" between Marietta , the Ih-jt town
in Ohio , and Chillieotho , which was the
llrst capital of the northwestern terri
tory anil of the stuto of Ohio. The next
reason for its existence is the natural
beauty of its location. It lies just on
the border , between the hills and the
broad and fertile plains and "IUMII io ? , "
ns they wore called by the early bottlers.
The town is on beautifully rolling
ground , with high points of view i d-
joining , from which the beauties of
Laurel Valley , a narrow ravine , from
the hills may bo contrasted with the
broad fertile bottom lands of Salt Creole ,
stretching away for a distance of eleven
miles Bonthoublwurdly without a break.
Pennsylvania formed the majority of its
founders , nnd their dcBi-cndants are
huro yot.
Ono of thorn , John Karshner , is ho
organizer of this road. Uo is a wealthy
farmer , who formerly was a leading
local politician , and was always a man
of push nnd enterprise. Ho talked railroad - ,
road M ) long that he finally formed uu
aerial company , obtained right of way
with some donations , and , as the com ;
wny never had any funds to speak of to
justify undertaking 1o build the road ,
Mr. Karshnor ( old farmer that he wis ) ,
determined to bring the cars to his
town , and undertook with bib own means
to build the road from Kingston to
Adelphi. Ho went nt itiu personbecamo
a railroad builder , and by shrewd and
careful business management in duo
coin-so of time biiw his ideal accom
plished. Then his troubles , began. Hero
wore ten miles of road built , and tlio
company , which had looked on during
the building , be.gan to desire to take
possession. Hut Mr. Knrshnor does not
sloop on his right , and lie assumed pos-
bgbbion by virtue of Jib having fur
nished the money and actually built the
road. Nevertheless , litigation to oust
him was begun , but so far hu his : liokl
his place , and ho is confident no
other judgment can bo rendered.
When tlio road was built ho ( old the
crops of his farms for ono year and
bought a locomotive , which ho called
the John Karshnor. Then lie had built
a combination passenger and baggage
car , and his equipment was complete.
Ho has been operating his road for two
years. At llrst he employed a con
ductor nnd a freight agent , and followed
the custom of larger roads. But being
an active man , though over seventy
years of age , he Foon dispensed with a 1
wiporlhious services , nnd now he com
bines within himself the entire list of
railroad men , from owner and presi
dent to conductor and brakonian. His
train goes twice a day from Adelphi to
Kington and return. It will stop on
signal at any farm-house or cross-road
for passengers or freight. Mr. Karshner
goes on every train as conductor , brake
man , bnggagomantor , mail and express
agent , and even as news agent. Ho
soils no tickets ; has no running ar
rangement with other roads ; Juis no
running accounts for freight , pni-
songcrs or express ; everything in
cash. Ho doca not require a book
keeper nor oven a clerk. Ho pays tlio
Sciolo Valley its charges on freight to
Kingston , and adds his own charges ,
collecting the whole upon delivery. lo
railroad in the country is managed on
more simple nnd economical principles-
and few afford such thorough ncommo-
dation to their patrons. Its passengers
have no fear of collisions nor of being
run down by following trains its one
train lias always the right of way. It
has no use for telegraphic orders nor
train dispatchers.
Mr. Karfahncr hopes soon to end his
litigation and then to arrange to push
his road eastward into the coal regions
in Athens countv , and has a local road
which will servo a community long }
needing a railroad , nndfind ample re- 4
muncration for the capital invested.
