A BIckculiiR Crime.
n , Colo. , March 19. | Special Tele
gram to the BBE. ] This morning nt 9
o'clock a tragedy occurred nt the Washing
ton house , kept by Mrs. Charles Schwclkart ,
near the northwest borders of the city , which
for cold-blooded wanton cruelty and determi
nation takes precedence In the annals of
local crime of probably any other similar
affair which was over perpetrated In this
flection of the country. Two men Ho dead
undone was badly wounded .In the sangui
nary affair , while a woman lies prostrate with
horror and grief nnd n seventeen-year-old
girl Is suffering from a shock which may bo
followed with terrible effects on her mind.
Charles Schwelknrt , the murderer , is a
German butcher about forty-flvo years of age ,
from whom his wife was divorced two years
go , slnco which time ho has boon n fugitive
from justice , being charged with the se
duction of ti llttlo school girl.
His time has been spent roving
nbout Utah , deriving subslstenco from the
proceeds of hunting. This morning ho ar
rived hero from Salt Lake and on alighting
from the train entered n , hack , bearing a
little hand satchel and a rlllo In an enclosed
case. Ho nsked to bo driven to the "Three-
mile houso" as quickly as possible. On ar
riving there ho requested the hack to wait a
few minutes , and entering the house loft the
rifle standing near the door. Ho walked into
the kitchen nnd requested Mrs. Sohwolkurt
to prepare him his breakfast. The woman
vms almost paralyzed with fear , ns she had
often been threatened with death from the
hands of the man because she had divorced
herself , but she mustered courage to tell him
that "ho had no right there nnd her lawyer
had advised her to have nothing to do with
him nnd for him to leave the houso. "
The words had hardly loft her lips when
ho pulled a 45-callbro revolver nnd fired
three shots nthcr , nil missing the object for
which they were Intended. The woman
started through the house screaming for
help with her murderous husband following.
She ran out of the front door , jumped Into
the hack which was standing there and was
driven away as rapidly as possible.
Before I the carriage had gone a hundred
yards Scwolkart came to the door , grabbed
up the rillo and flred thrco shots through It ,
neither hitting the woman. The man then
returned to the kitchen , where ho met
George Krciner , proprietor of the pickling
works near by , nnd who had lived as a
boarder in the family for twelve years.
Schweikort shot him , the ball entering the
loft temple and passing through the head ,
scattering his brains over the dishes , which
were still upon the table , and causing instant
death. At this moment Charles Kclnn , nn
employe of Krciner , came out of his room ,
which opens on the kitchen , and received the
second ball in his right arm , breaking it. Ho.
however , escaped before another shot could
bo fired nt him. °
Schwclkart then entered his wife's bed
room , locked the door , laid down upon the
lied , placed the revolver to his forehead nnd
sent a ball crashing through his skull , tour
ing the upper part away and scattering the
pieces all over the room.
Both of the dead men remained in this
position until word could bo sent to the city
for the patrol. When it reached the scene u
most horrible sight was presented , both the
bed room and kitchen being almost Hooded
with blood and'pieces of llesh and brains
hanging on the walls nnd furniture. The
bodies were taken to the coroner's and an
Inquest will be held to-morrow.
Mrs. Schwclkart , after escaping from the
house , was driven to her sister's , In the
city , where she is now confined to her room
from nervous prostration.
One of the saddest incidents in connection
with the bloody work happened to Uosa
Blanso , a beautiful young niece of Mrs.
Schwcikurt , who was sitting in a room at the
time the murderer entered the door. Recognizing -
nizing his voice and fearing that ho had como
on no good mission , she ran and hid herself
in the collar , where slio remained until the
shooting ceased and when all was quiet came
up from her hiding place , and passing into
the kitchen to escape from the house , came
suddenly upon the bloody corpse of Kreinor
lying across the threshold of the door. The
chock wus so great that she fainted and re
covering before assistance came she wander
cd out of the house Into the street , where she
was found by the patrol. She was brought
to the city and it is feared will lese her
reason.
The probable cause of the tragedy was
Jealousy on the part of Sehwelkart because
no thought improper relations existed between
tween Mrs. Sehwelkart nnd Krolnor , and no
doubt this drove him to commit the deed.
An Old Crime Cleared Up.

SENJ.IH , March 19. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BEE. ] The summonses
menses Issued against Sullivan nnd Mitchell
wcro returnable to-day at Scnlls. As may
jo remembered , the French authorities orig-
nally demanded 1,000 francs for the appcor-
anco of the two offenders , but this ball was
subsequently enlarged to 4,000 francs , which
sum was put up by Phillips nnd Moore.
It Is needless to say that the principals
were absent. They were defended
t > y Dclaportc , * vho read letters from his
clients , who regretted that professional en
gagement * prevented them answering the
summons of the court. Dclaporto called the
attention of the court to the fact that not n >
witness had been summoned to assert
whether there was n battle or simply a
wrestling match. Ho remarked that no
llagranto dcllctulmd been proved nnd that the
prosecution was simply a surmise nnd on the
admission of persons Interested , who assured
ly would hnvo held their tongues had they
been aware that they had acted [ contrary to
, aw. Admitting that the two men had Bottled
a grievance with lists , ho added that the fist
In England was the ultimatum of the classes ,
who In Franco were prone to draw the sword.
Dueling , although punishable by law , was
carried on In France. In conclusion Delaporto
said the men had been stopped on n public
highway and prosecuted and treated ns
criminals without having caused a scandal
or disturbed u public order.
The court , after brief deliberation , con
sidered that the non-appcnranco of the de
fendants aggravated the offense nnd sentenced
Sullivan and Mitchell to six days imprison
ment and a maximum fine of 200 francs for
each. Further , that the balance of the sum
of 4,000 , francs deposited to secure the
presence of the accused persons should ,
after the deduction of the fine , costs , etc. , bo
forfeited to the state owing to the non-np-
pcaranco of the two men. The sentence be
comes final within ten days after judgment
has been served on the two men , who have
chosen n domicile In Franco nt the ofllco of
Dclaporto at Sculls. Neither can come to
Franco , without danger of being arrested.

FKEDErtlOlC'S MESSAGES.
Received With Enthusiasm By Both
Legislative Bodies.
BEHI.IN , March 19. The royal message
was read in the Prussian landtag in united
session to-day. It was practically a review
of his designs nnd views as expressed in the
previous proclamation and his letter to Bis
marck. The condition of his health prevent
ing him at this time from taking the oath
personally , the emperor solemnly undertakes
to ndhero to the constitution flruily nnd in
violably and to rule In conformity with the
laws. The sitting was invested with un
usual interest and the galleries wcro crowded
when Bismarck finished reading the mes
sage. Duke von Hatlbor , president of the
upper house , said it was not within
his province to say how each house
would reply to the message. Ho would now
simply ask the assemblage to mark the king's
faithful attachment and devotion and unite
In a cry of "Long live King Frederick. " The
cheer was thrlco repeated and the diet ad
journed.
The emperor's message to the reichstag
was also read to that body to-day. It differs
from that addressed to the Prussian diet ,
principally in taking tbo scope of the cmpiro
instead of Prussia and reiterates the deter
mination to conscientiously respect nnd
guard the constitutional rights of the indi
vidual federal states nnd the reichstag. The
message was read by Her Piesdorff , presi
dent of the rolchstag , who requested
permission to submit to-morrow the
draft of an address in reply to
the message , expressing devotion to the
emperor. The request was unanimously
granted. Then Prince Bismarck , rising ,
said : "It will afford mo great satisfaction if
I am permitted to consider myself charged
by the house to communicate thanks to these
friendly governments whoso parliaments
have expressed sympathy with the grief sur
rounding us. Such expressions have como
from all quarters of the globe. Such wide
spread sympathy on the death of a sovereign
has never before been recorded. I shall
thank , ou to empower mo to express thanks
to these friendly nations upon whoso sym
pathy the peace of the future rests inoro
llrmly than upon written treaties. "
The draft of the address of the lower housp
of the diet in reply to the royal message ex
presses thanks for the majesty's inomiso to
ndhera to the constitution and the wish for
the emperor's complete restoration to health
and the continuance of his bcncllciont rule ,
In Alminc-LorrahiG.
STIUSBUHO , March 10. In the Imperial
proclamation for Alsace-Lorraine , published
hero to-day , the emperor says :
Wo uro conscious of our duty to cultivate
in Reichslaml Gorman sentiments nnd Ger
man customs : to protect right nnd justice
nnd to promote the welfare and prosperity ol
Its Inhabitants. In our endeavors to do Justice
to this task wo count upon the confidence and
devotion of the nooplo and the faithful ful
fillment of their duties to the authorities.
Wo demand and expect conscientious ob
servance of the law.

WOllK AT THE TOSTOFFJCE ] ) EPAUTM NT.
There are some very strange things going
on in the postofllco department now. Post
master general Dickinson is having n force
in the sixth nuditor's ofllco , which is in his
department , working night nnd day on the
the old money order lapses under republican
administrations , getting up tabular state
ments , which it is presumed ho will have
called for by congress and used for campaign
purposes , but what ho expects to show by
them cannot bo imagined. Again , n couple
of clerks in the sixth auditor's office have
taken their leaves and gone to northwestern
Ohio and the first congressional district of
Indiana to hunt up campaign material. Other
clerks have been given to understand that
they can take leaves and go into Wisconsin
nnd do campaign work.
Not long ago a colored messenger in the
sixth auditor's ofllco resigned his position and
went to Florida , where he became a success
ful star route bidder. The sixth auditor
passes upon all star mail accounts. A few
days ago the messenger wrote n friend , hero
that ho expected the sixth auditor to visit
Florida soon. Sure enough , but a day or two
elapsed till the sixth nuaitor went to Florida ,
where ho is now enjoying himself on n pleas
ure boat. There are other interesting things
going on in the postofllce department nowa

Or INTUKEST TO VOMJ TEEH SOLDIEIIS.
Major Steele , of Indiana , has reported to
the house from the committee on military
affairs n substitute to the Perkins bill al
lowing extra pay to certain volunteer officers
of the late war. The major said to the Br.E
correspondent this afternoon thnt ho in
tended to push the bills with vigor nnd be
lieved it would become a law , as it corrects
an error of judgment in the act approved
March 3,1805 , which has worked great in
justice. Thu substitute proposed amends this
act so that nil officers of volunteers below the
rank of brigadier general who continued in
the military service to the close of the war or
who were prevented from doing so by reason
of wounds received or disabilities contracted
incident to honorable service shall bo entitled
to receive thrco months pay proper. In re
porting the bill Major Steclo says : "In the
opinion of your committee , officers who were
prevented from continuing Snathe service , as
provided for in the act of March 3 , 1805 , by
reason of wounds received or disabilities
contracted in honorable service , should not
hnvo been bnrred from receiving the same
bounty or reward ns their more fortunate
associates received. Otherwise the net
would have hinted nt least to the officers it
was desired to have remain in the service to
the close of the war to 'keep out of danger
ous places or you may bo disabled and if you
are the extra pay provided shall be withheld
from you.1 Such was obviously not the
intention of the f ramors of the law nud In
not inserting the provision your committee
are seeking to insert it ut this late day what
was an oversight. "
C1I1T1CISINO DUNDT'8 DECISION.
A great deal of comment has been heard
hero on the decision of Judge Dundy on the
locomotive engineer's strike , Tnls evening's
Star , in commenting on tbo decision , strikes
the popular feeling in JVnshlngton when It
says : "In his remarks during the argument
for the injunction the judge specially limited
the power of the court to interfere to these
cases in which thpro is a conspiracy to create
disturbance , derail cars , ditch engines , etc.
But If a strike consisted simply in quitting
work nnd quietly walking out ho did not see
how a court wus going to restrain It. 'I
shall never.1 said ho , 'order a man to work
against his will by injunction. Such
nctipn would bo inenuiUiblo for
the reason that another remedy exists suit
for breach of contract whenever the terms of
'n contrnct , us prescribed , nro not carried
out.1 What happened between the utterance
of these words und the delivery of the final
decision ) Did counsel for the corporations
involved produce proof of malicious designs
on the purt of the striking engineers or is the
judge ready to accept as evidence of a con
spiracy the fact that several men concluded
for their mutual benefit to do together what
each ono of them would have had an Indis
putable right to do by himself , Judge Dundy
has gene u long way further than Judge
Greshum , but it remains to bo soon whether
ho has kepton equally safe ground. "
riQHTINO OVKH Till ! TAHITI 1III.L.
Rapid progress was made on the ndmlnls-
t rut ion tariff bill by the committee on ways
nnd means to-day. The republican members
proposed to strike out almost every section
ns it was read , but they were properly voted
down by the majority nnd the work pro
gressed till the crocfeeryschedulo wns reached.
The only change so far was to take cement
from the free list and put a duty of 10 cents
on It , which Is ono-lialf of tbo present duty.
Members of the committee continue to pre
dict that the bill will bo ready to report to
the house on Thursday , not that the repub
licans will hove gotten through , but that the
democrats will hive gottuij weary of the pro
gramme which Die minority flvo following ,
It Is evident that there will bo very fe\7
amendments made to the bill , although it is
reported thnt tremendous pressure is being
brought by prominent democrats in Louis
iana to hayo the proposed reduction of the
duty on sugar stricken off or cut in half on
account of the threatened , bolt of the sugar
growers and tbo loss to the party of tha state
at the approaching spring elections. It'ap
that nt Inst ' of the
pears night's meeting com-
mitteoon ways and means there was a good
deal of bandying of words indulged in by
Chairman Mills and Mr. Heed. The latter ,
'who is said to lend the uiiuerity of tUe com
mittee , is In very bad temper nnd his sarcasm
nt times grows in to'tehat the majority nro
terming insolence nnd insults * Chairman
Mills , In the course .of the last meeting , In
formed Mr. Reed that If ho did not desist In
his "Insulting language , " ns chairman
of tbo committee ho would have
to protect the members nnd
call n halt. Ho declared thnt some of the in
sinuations challenged the Intelligence of the
majority. For instance , Mr. Reed nskcd ono
of the democratic members If no know wlmt
ho was nbout when ho proposed certain fea
tures in the bill. This Chairman Mills de
clared to bo nn Insult to the Intelligence of
the member nnd said that ho proposed to
hnvo the turbulence stopped. The meeting
of the committee to-day was more agreeable
than usual.
BFFECT OP THD TntErHONR DECISION.
There was an immense crowd nround the
supreme court room to-dny during the rend
ing of the majority and minority decisions in
the telephone cnics. About twenty lawyers ,
representing the various telephone com
panies , were an hand , and the full bar , nud
this almost filled the llttlo court room , nnd
the announcement made yesterday thnt the
decision would likely bo rendered to-dny
brought to the scene n crowd largo enough to
fill n dozen such rooms. The decision , deliv
ered by Justice Blatchford nnd signed by
four of the seven Justices participating in the
case , could not hnifo been stronger in
favor of the Boil Telephone com
pany. Justices "Watte , Matthews nnd
Miller nttnchcd their signatures to the
decision of Justice Blatchford , which stands
ns final and affirms the Boll patents , whllo
Justices Fields , Bradley and Harlan signed
the dissenting decision read by the first
named. Tbo controlling decision was adopted
by 4 to 3. Justice Gray is n resident of Bos
ton , where most of the Bell stock is held , nnd
ho for thnt reason refused to participate in
tbo case. Justice Lamar came on the bench
after the arguments were held , nnd ho of
course did not sit iu judgment , so there were
but seven of the nine justices who took part
in rendering the decision. Some of the
tclcphono companies' attorneys who
have been lighting ngnlnst the
Boll Tclcphono company , notably these for
Drawbaugh. were considerably cast down.
It appears that nearly all the attorneys who
pooled the cases of their clients nnd entered
the combination ngnlnst the Boll company
anticipated the result except the Drnwbuugh
people. The Inttor yet bellovo they mny
overthrow the Boll patents before the expi
ration of the life of the patents in 1893. They
count Justice'Lainar with them , nnd should
there bo n change by death or otherwise 'in
the chair of ono of the four justices who to
day entered into an affirmation of the Bell
patents , they could again bo
brought with hope of success.
For the present it is expected
that there will bo a cessation of the tclcphono
agitation , and that the Boll people will enter
suits against nil the companies who are oper
ating any other than their patent.

The Governments' Bridge Rl hta.
WASHINGTON , tyarch 19. Vest from the
commerce committee , reported haqlc the reso
lution to inquire into the right and ex
pediency of congress assuming control of the
erection of bridges over navigable rivers
within state limits. The report says there
can bo no question as to the right of the
national legislature to absolutely control tha
construction of bridges ncross navigable
rivers , nor is this power limited or affected
by the fact that such streams are entirely
within the limits ot n stato. 'I ho report
further says there uro a great many naviga
ble streams within the limits of the respect
ive spates which should bo loft to the control
of the state government. At the same time
congress should never surrender its power
to control the erection of bridges over such
streams whenever that jxnvcr should bo exer
cised. The committee is , therefore , of the
opinion that no legislation is necessary on
the subject , but that tha question should bo
left where it now Is ,

GRIEVANCE MEN IN SESSION.
Burlington Officials Order Their Enst-
crn Agents to Stop Sending En
gineers Affairs Serious on
the lown Central.
A Hlg Blum
CHICAGO , March l9. [ Spcclal Telegram to
the Br.K. ] The Burlington officials tclo
graphed cast this afternoon directing their
agents to stop sending engineers , for the
reason that they have nil they need. With
these who nro to nrrlvo hero to-morrow the
rend will hnvo ns mnny as It had on the Satr
urday preceding the strike. When a high
official In the company Informed your corre
spondent of the situation ho was asked :
"If the places are filled , what would you
do In case the old men announced their read-
ness to como Uncle I"
"Tho only thing wo could do for them
now , " said the official , "would bo fo place
their applications on file nnd give them work
as vacancies occurred. You can rest as
sured of ono thing , nnd thnt Is that the mon
wo hnvo engaged wo shall rctnln ns long ns
they do the work ns they nro doing It now.
Neither will wo allow them to bo driven
from their places. Wo can protect them , and
wo will. "
While the Burlington officials may bo
happy , the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul
and the Northwestern people do not feel alto
gether secure. The grievance committees of
these two roads are in session to-day , and
rumors of n strike were In general circula
tion. It Is understood that mon with radical'
views hnvo taken the places of the conserva
tive members of these committees , nnd for
that reason the result of this conference Is
awaited with some apprehension.
D At the brotherhood headquarters the fact
that the Santa Fo engineers had resumed had
no appreciable influence. The determination
to continue the fight that has prevailed dur
ing the past week was in no wise altered.
"What effect will the action of the Santa
Fo engineers have on the local situation ! "
wasaskcd of Chairman Hogo.
"None nt all. "
"Will you continue the fight herol"
"Yes , sir , and keep it up. _ Wo base our
hopes for success on the ground that wo. are
in the right. If wo didn't expect to win wo
would throw up nt onco. "
J. Conroe , the much-tnlkcd-of nnd long-
lookcd-for chairman of the Santa Fo en
gineers , arrived in the city this morning via
the Kock Island road. After a conference
with Mr. Arthur nt the Pacific ho hurried to
the telegraph office in the hotel and busied
himself for half an hour sending telegrams
to different points in the west. As he fin
ished his telegraphing lie sprang up the steps
two at n time , followed by a number of the
brotherhood mon. A reporter stopped him nt
the head of the stairs.
"I haven't a minutes time , " ho replied in
answer to a question as ho hurried along.
"When will you havel"
"I can't say. "
"Mr. Conroo , the public is deeply interested
and concerned in the railroad strike and is
entitled . respectful - consideration , Is the
report that the strike is over , true ? "
"Yes. " '
"Is there nny probability of further trouble
on the Santa Fo < "
"Thero Is not. You can say that there
will bo no moro trouble. "
"What have you to say regarding Vice
President Smith's charge that you violated
your agreement in not giving the company
thirty days' notice of your intention to strike ,
nnd that , on the contrary you struck after
giving but ten minutes' notice ; "
"You are now treading on delicate ground
and I can't answer you. "
"Havo you seen any of the Santa Fo oU-
cials in the city yet ! "
* , " ! hnvo not. 1 expect to remain hero until
to-morrow night and " but before ho
could finish he wns pushed into Chief Ar
thur's room by a lot of engineers who are
continually whining about the press not giv
ing their side of the strike , und the door
slammed and locked.
"I had a talk with Chief Arthur nnd Chair
man Conroo for a few minutes , " said General
Manager Smith , of the Santa Fo roud , to-day.
"Chief Arthur had very little to say. Ho
simply accompanied Mr. Conroo. Conroo ex
pressed himself as being very sorry thnt the
strike , if it can bo called a strike , had oc
curred , and glad matters wcro all right
again. "
"What did ho say was the reason for his
calling out the menl"
"Ho said it was against his personal Judg
ment and ndvico , but that the men insisted
upon doing something to help out the Bur
lington strikers and ho was compelled to
obey their wishes. "
"Havo the former relations been resumed
between the Santa Fo and the brotherhood ? "
"Our relations are of the most friendly
character. Nothing but the best of feeling
was shown this morning in the short con
ference wo had. "
"Would an action against the brotherhood
for the damages the road has sustained from
the strike hold ? "
"I don't ' know. You'd have to ask some
legal expert. Nothing of the sort is con
templated. "
"How much do you estimate the road Las
lost by the action of the brotherhood } "
"I could only conjecture nnd conjectures
hnvo no value. Its like the old trick wo used
to piny , of suddenly calling to n boy ns ho
walked along and asking how far ho would
have been if ho hadn't ' stopped , I know that
everything is going smoothly to-day. Traffic
has resumed , all the trains are moving and
very few of thorn are behind time , not moro
than most railroad trains aro. I guess every
body is glad to BCO things in their normal
condition. "
"Thnt telegram purporting to bo from you
to Manager Ktono , of the Chicago , Burling
ton & Quincy , saying that you would hold
the Burlington responsible for losses. "
"It was a canard and Chairman Carroll , of
the Santa Fo committee of grievances at
Kansas City , sent it. "
"Wcro no concessions made tothomonj"
was asked of him.
"Not ono. "
"What Is your position In regard to Bur
lington freight ! "
"Wo have begun handling it nnd shall con
tinue to do so. The men , when they re
turned , understood they w&uld make no dis
crimination in handling freight transferred
to us. "
"Do you regard the result of the strike ns a
back-down by the brotherhood ! "
"No , " replied the vice president , "it was
a change of opinion by our men , "
The Central Iowa Tlo Up ,
MAitbiui.i.TOW.v , In. , March 19. Acting
under the advice of the court , Hoceiver Dud
ley of the Central Iowa railroad this morning
closed the shops und general offices In this
city , laying off all employes hero and along
the line except enough to guard the property
nnd handle passenger service. This is the
result of the tlo up of freight traffic and Is
the receiver's only alternative , as without
the freight earnings there would bo nothing
10 meet the pay roll. Notieo has boon given
the striking engineers to report nt S tomorrow

grnrn to the BEEJ The strike on the Iowa
Central Is assuming a serious financial ua-

A Conference With President Smith.

roe , of the general grievance committee of
the Santa Fo system , the man who ordered
the big strike out west , arrived In the city
this morning. Mr. Conroo at once had nn

Mr. Arthur would not talk on that point , nor

The Snntn Fo Rush.
KANSAS CITT , March 19. All passenger
trains on the Santa Fo road are going out on
time this morning. At the freight yards nil
is activity , nnd switch engines nro darting
about making up trains as rapidly as possi
ble , and every effort is being made to relieve
the freight blockade.
Still Out nt Los
Los AvanLKS , Cala. , March 19. No word
has been received yet by the officials of the
Santa Fo road hero in regard to the end of
the strike nnd traflic on thnt line In this sec

moved until orders to that effect are received
from the cast.
Chief Arthur Congratulated.
ST. JOSEPH , March 19. The board of
railroad commissioners sent a congratulatory
telegram to Chief Arthur to-day , expressing
approval of the law-nbldlng and conservative
position which ho assumed in regard to the
strike of the Atchison engineers.
Still Undccido I.
The result of Sunday conference between -
tweon the grievance committee of the
brotherhood cngineeis and the Union Pacific
officials is still undetermined and there is no
prospect thnt any decision will
bo reached before to-day. There is
no means of knowing all the sub
jects discussed nt Sunda3 > l8 meeting. It
can bo stated , however , that the Union
Pacific officials were very patient and treated
the engineers' committee with ruro consider
ation. The committee stated that they had
but ono grievance that of being obliged to
handle Burlington cars. This caused the
officials to go over the whole ground
again. They showed to the committee how
the B. & M. and the Union Pacifio mot at
many common points and that in all direc
tions their lines were parallel. It was stated
that the freight business of Colorado nlono
was over $0,000.000 last year. Stop the
Union Paciflo wheels and the Burlington
would mnko moro money from that source
alone than on nil their eastern roads. In
other words , by crippling the Union Pacific
they add to the profits of the road desired to
bo crippled. The committee couldn't see it
In that light. The managers then showed
them another fact , A certain
Omaha lumberman desired to ship
four cars over the Union
Pacific. The freight charges would have
amounted to say § 500. The lumber was on
Burlington cars. The Union Pacific engi
neers refused to haul It and the merchant
was obliged to ship it over the B. & M. The
latter pot the ? 500 less $0 , the switch fee.
which went to the Union Pacific. In other
words the engineers took away from their
friend and gave to their enemy.
It is generally understood that the men will
not strike , but as they refuse to see the logic
in either of the above examples , it is possible
that they may.
A QI'IKT DAT AND NIGHT.
There wcro no now developments or excit
ing features in connection with the railroad
strike nt night , the various committees from
the engineers nnd firemen brotherhood evi
dently tnkthg a rest preparatory to n now
line of notion. What that is to bo remains to
bo seen , but it is expected that the brother
hood will make propositions to the Burling
ton and Union Pacific that will bring about
an amicable adjustment of the trouble. The
committee scorns satisfied that the Union Pa
cific officials will Insist on respecting Judge
Dundy's ' ruling in reference to handling Bur
lington cara and that may precipitate a
strike , which , however , will bo avoided if
possible. Yesterday a long string of empty
"Q" cars wcro run over from this side to
the Bluffs and wcro laid off on n side track ,
There was but llttlo switching done in the
Union Pacific yards in this city , owing to the
washout near Fremont , which caused the
abandonment of several freight trains.
Everything was quiet last night , und sev
eral engineers scon by Bun reporters said
that there was nothing now to toll.
Ijnrrnljco nnd Perkins.
Dns MOINKS , la. , March 19. The follow
ing correspondence between Governor Lar-
rabeo nnd President Perkins , of the Chicago ,
Burlington & Quincy railroad was made
public to-night , The first letter from Gover
nor Lnrrubco was written ton clays ago and
was printed in full in the Bii : : nt that time
It urged that the differences between the
company nnd its employes bo submitted to
arbitration. To this President Perkins i o-
plied under dato. of March 11 , bubstantiully
us follows :
I regret thnt our course should hnvo given
nny cause for complaint and bog to nssuro
you that no amount of labor or expense has
been spared by us to correct ns rapidly 113
possible any shortcomings duo to the sudden
action of our engineers and firemen. If com
munities or Individuals have been damaged
wo stand ready to make payment In full
where wo uro liable , and I shall esteem it a
favor if you will kindly have trans
mitted a statement of all complaints
which hnvo been made or may hereafter
bo brought to your attention in
order that wo may endeavor to render satisfaction -
faction in each case. Wo have succeeded in
so for filling the strikers' places thnt wo
now have in Iowa about 07 per cent of the
number employed prior to February 27 , to
which wo are dally making additions , whllo
7fl or 60 per cent will probably bo quite suf
ficient for the present demands of business ,
Owing to the largo number of men out of em
ployment. to the loyalty , ical , courage and
hard work of the men who remained with us
in all branches of our organisation ; to the
positive stand taken by the newspapers , and
to the patience and good temper of the
public , fiom whom wo have received
many marks of encouragcmctit. we have re
covered moro rapidly than nt the beginning'
wo thought possible. Your letter suggests
the question of our employing men whoso
voluntary action iu leaving us was the cavtso
of whatever inumvcnicnco the public has suf
fered. This was a serious and important
matter and ono to which wo fava the most
careful considcintion , M < i < h could bo said
on bath sides , but our conclusion up to this
time Is that wo would i ot class the opjmrtu
nlty to return of so nuuy of them as wo may
have woik for. Very few , however , have
taken advantage of Ill's ' opportunity and our
now men who1 are competent and of good
character will of course , bo retained if they
like to stay in our service.
Governor Larrabeo's answer is as follows :
"I am in receipt of your letter of tha 14th

situation affords hip ] that regularity in op
eration of your lines will soon t > o ru-cstuU-

The Tlcll Patent Afllrmcd ,
WASHINGTON , March 19. The opinion of
the United States supreme court In the tele
phone cases was delivered to-day. In conslrt- ,
crlng the question of alleged anticipation o&
Bell's ' Invention by the telephone of Rols , In
Germany , the court holds that Hols dlscov- ,
orcd the means ot transmitting mualcnP
tones , nnd nothing moro. The court holds'
that the apparatus of Rels was not successful - * .
ful in transmitting speech nnd that his In-i" "
volition was not in any respect nn anticipa
tion of the discovery which was made by
Bell. The court holds that the force of tes
timony showing that Drawbaugh had tele
phones in use before the Invention of Belt
is completely broken by his own conduct and *
Indifference which ho manifested with regard - '
gard to his alleged Invention until years
after Boll's telephones were known to thof
wliolo world. The decision of the court IB in
favor of the Bell telephone company on all
points and In all of the cases. T
Justices Bradley. Field and Horlon dis
sent , nnd Justices Gray nnd Lnmnr did not
sit in the case. Boll patents nro'thoroforo'
sustained by a majority , the court standing1
four to throe. Justice Blatchford , in review
ing the charge of fraud nnd collusion In the
patent ofllco by means of which Boll , It la
alleged , obtained surreptitious Information In
regard to Inventions , and then amended
his own specifications , hold that
there was not the slightest evidence to sup
port this charge or to cast reflection ,
upon the Integrity of Boll or his attorneys.
The dissent of Justices Bradley , Field nnd
Hnrlau in the case is based upon the Draw
baugh telephone. These thrco justices nro o $
the opinion that the evidence overwhelm
ingly showed Drawhaugh was the first in
ventor of the speaking telephone , although
ho was unconscious of it , nnd was not aware
of its Importance.
The opinion of the court In the tclcphono
cases was prepared by Clilof Justice Wnlte-
but owing to his indisposition Justice Blatch * '
ford rend it for him.
A decision was also rendered In the cnso ot
Bowman Bros , vs the Chicago & Northwest
ern railroad company , which involves the
validity of n statute of Iowa forbidding a
railroad company to bring intoxicating liquor
i. to tha state unless such company has been
furnished with a certificate from the county'
auditor of the county to which the liquor 1 *
to be transported , showing that the consignee
is legally nuthorired to soil it. The courtf
holds that the power to regulate or forblu
the snlo of n commodity after it has been
brought into the otato does not carry with itf
the right and power to prevent Its introduc
tion by transportation from another state.
The section of the Iowa statute of April K
I860 , which prohibits railroad companies front
bringing liquor into the state is therefore do-
clarcd to bo Invalid , and the judgment of the/ /
United States circuit court for the northcrjl
district of Illinois is reversed , the chief Ju M
tico and Justices Gray and Harlan dissent-
Ing.A
A decision was also rendered In the case ot
the Western Union telegraph company vq.1
the Attorney General of Massachusetts , !
This was a suit to enforce a collection of a
tax _ levied by the authorities of the state upon )
th'o telegraph company from further opor-j
ution of its telegraph lines within the limits
of the state until the tax had been paid. TlilSi'
court held the tax assessed against ther
company , valid. The Judgment of the conrfc11
below , that the sum claimed by -plaintiff- -
to bo duo for taxes namely $10,018 , bo paid to' '
said state by company , with interest thereon , I
Is without error and so much of that Judg.,1
mcnt is affirmed. That purt of the decree of
the circuit court , however , which awards na
injunction to restrain the company from
carrying on its business in the state .until the
tax shall bo paid , is reserved for the reason
that if congress had authority to say that tha
company might contract and operate Ita telegraph - '
graph over the post roads as the supreme
court has repeatedly held it had , the state cao
have no authority to say it shall not bo done ,
Tariff Changes. "
WALITINGTON , March 19. Bettor progress
was mode to-day by tbo ways and means
committee in the consideration of the tarifi ,
bill than has been made during the past few *
days. The f rco list was passed upon , as wolPi
ns the chemical section , and at adjournment
the committee had just taken up the para
graphs relating to crockery and : china. Tha'
moat important action taken was the striking 1
out of cement from the free list and the Int.
position of 10 per cent ad valorem duty upon1
It instead of the 20 per cent rate. Jute man
ufacturing machinery was also placed on the ,
free list in consideration of the fact that Jut * '
is also made freo.
Mr. Breckenridgo has given notice that
when the thirteenth proper section Is reached
ho will move to reconsider the vote by'
which cotton bagging was transferred from
the free list to a dutiable class with the existing - '
ing tariff ofyt cents per yard. In the chcm-'l
leal section "sheep wash"- proprietary
compound for removal of vermin nnd the ;
cure of skin diseases In sheep , was taken ?
from the list of dutiable articles nnd placed *
on the free list. Glycerine crude In the free
list , was defined by the adoption of the Ian * '
guago of the existing law touching specific/ /
gravity , etc. ' '
At the night session the committee tariff
bill was read by paragraphs for amendments , !
nud when adjournment was taken to Wednes * "
day the point at which the motion to report
to the house was In order hod been reached.
The most Important change In the bill to
night was the transfer of cotton bagging fromf
f roe to taxable. A motion was made to strike !
out the wool section , but after some debate.
It was defeated by u strict party voto. A1
provision was added to the internal revenue ]
part of the bill making an appropriation to
pay the drawbacks provided for by ft , the
purpose being to prevent delay in the pay
ment of these drawbacks. With tills excep
tion the Internal revenue portion of thomcas- !
uro remains as reported. It is expected that
nt the Wednesday consideration of the bill ill
