Quito n scene occurred Wednesday after- icon In the rotunda of the Grand hotel. Mrs. A. Cragln , of the firm of Cragln & Co. , who have been managing the hotel until within a week past , attempted to go up to her room. An ofllccr who has been stationed at the hotel for the past ten ilnys In order to prevent nny dis order that might nnso from thn change of management , forbade her going up stairs. She claimed thatlier things were up n her room , and that as she was about to cave tbo hotel , she had the right to go up and get them read ; to DO moved. She rushed past the officer , who was stationed on the stairs in front of ncr , and had gotten up several steps when the officer caught her and carried her bodily down stairs. Mrs. Cragin called upon the bystanders to witness that the officer bad laid violent hands on her , nnd then went to the ofllco , by the advice of her attorney , Judce J. II.

The CominisHlon Seen Its U'ny Clear to Secure Tliein. "The park commissioners feel very much encouraged over their present prospects of being able to secure funds for the purchase of additional parks and parkways , " said Dr. George E. Milter. "Wo do not propose , " ho continued , "to ask for $150,000 in bonds.orany other amount Just at present. The situation is Just this : I consulted Judge Lane , tbo actual legal ad viser of the board , some tlmo ago and asked him three questions ; first , whether the re peal of section 04 of the charter Impaired the city's right to secure property for parks and parkways ; second' , whether the the park bonds , if voted , would como under the \"yt per cent limitation rule ; and third , whether In purchasing parks and parkwavs the commission would bo required to desfg- nato the property before asking for the bonds. Judge Lane gave the 'natter careful consideration and decided that the repeal of section M did not deprive the city of Its right to secure property for park purposes ; that the park bonds would not como under the 13' $ per cent limitation rule und tbat bonds could bn voted for the purchase of parks und park ways without tbo property desired first being designated. "hi view of tbo opinions of Judge Lake the commission has instructed its committee on parK grounds and park ways , of which Mr. Pratt Is chairman , to tike up and consider the whole question of park Interests with a view to the purchase and Improvement of addi tional parks nnd park wai s In tno city and within the three-mile limit In which thocom- riisslon has Jurisdiction under the city charter as amended.

Dr.s Moixc' , la. , May 21. [ Special Tele gram to 1'tiK BKKJ The United States grand Jury today returned an indictment against J. C. Newton , general manager of the DCS Motnes ft Kansas City railway , charging him with conspiracy to defraud the government In loading up the malls passing over his road during the month of April , when the govern ment was weighing the mall for % the purpose of securing a basis for new contracts with all railroads for carrying the malls. According to the evidence adduced , Newton had n lot of old newspapers In wrap pers addressed to various persons on his line of road , nnd then at the-other end of his line had the same papers sent pack again to somn- body nt the DCS Moincs end. In this manner ho caused to pass over his road from two to llvo hundred pounds per day of extra mail matter , and if his scheme had panned out it would nave operated to Increase the amount which his road would have received from the government from $ . > ,000 per n nnu m as it was , to $10,000 pir annum ; and Inas much as the government's contracts are mudo for four years , the net steal proposed by Newton during the four years would havn amounted to $20,000. A great amount of bogus mall matter was sent to M. F. Oxford nt Kanesvlllc , Mo. , who upon receipt pro ceeded to remull the same to Charles F. Newton , n nephew of J. C. New ton , located In another part of the country n largo part of it going to Ophlr , Cain. To that locality seventy-five sacks of mail were sent.

There wtis a special .sosslon of the city council held last nlgbt nt which n greater portion of the tnno was spent in making era tions. H came about when Elsassor , the second member of the committee on grades nud griding , offered his report. Some weeks ngo , when Conway , the chair man , was sick , nil of the papers wcro turned ovet to 1'lsnsscr. Last night Conway was present to object to the report being received. Ho. Ounffee and Doris wanted It to go over until next Tuesday night , but they were in the minority. Buloie tins was decided the council Indulged In n wild and woolly time. Elsiisscr objected to tlio postponement In a most vigorous speech , in which ho charged that there were n number of boodlers in the last council ; that there was n combine and a ring ; thutn certain member did not dare to vote until so Instructed by n corporation. Chaffcc asked that Elsasscr bo compelled to explain . Elsasser urged that nn explana tion Is not necessary , as the public knows that this Is n notorious fact. Chaffco and Davis demanded the names of the boodlers. The president pounded a hole in the dcjk , whllo the serpuant-ot-arms quieted what looked like a riot. Mayor dishing submitted to the council the nnmo of Henry C. Sharp as assistant sewer inspector. President Lowryurged that the inspector should bo appointed from the ranks nnd not from the aristocracy. The appointment was confirmed nnd Lowry's ob jections overruled. Chairman Blrkhnuscr , at the request of the council , submitted a list of Inspectors who nro now In the employ of the board of public works. The men are H. C. Sharp. J. B. Sedgwlck. Peter Meis , L. H. Parker , J. J. Conlon. E. Stoney , H. Me- Grath and J. H. Crolghton. Chaffeo asked why thu list was asked for. Elsasser suggested that some of the men have been appointed and were confirmed. The matter was referred to the committco on pavlutr , curbing and gutterity ? . The report of the committed to accept the Johnson electric service fot1 the new city hall wus adopted , nnd the committee on public property and buildings was authorized to make the contract. Ttio company will put in ono air tunk , ono steam air pump , one ulr gauge , switches , bells , battery cupboards , etc. , for the sum of SM'-'O. The idea is to have the service apply to seventy-seven rooms. The ordinance relntlne to the erection of certain buildings within the tire limits was recommitted. A resolution nutborbing the nriyor to enter Into a contract for the construction of n monument to bo erected to the memory of General Crook was adopted. The cost of the monument Is not to exceed ?

Chairman Walker today handed down two decisions of tbo board of commissions co the Western Traffic associa tion. Ono Is in the form of n resolution set ting forth tbat in certain cases rates from the territory of the association to eastern points bavo been made by taking tbo agreed tariff from the point of shipment to the eastern boundary of the association and milling thereto rates less than the published tariffs for transporta tion cast of the eastern boundary lino. This means that while the western roads may bo guiltless of any irregularity , some of tbo eastern lines are secretly shading the rates , and the western lines , knowing this , have been quoting through rates to shippers on the basis ot the rates mndo by their eastern connections. The commissioners decide that the by-laws of the association prohibit the making through rates in the manner de scribed. In .their opinion the through rate cannot possibly bo made otherwise * wise than by publication of a through tariff naming rates from point of shipment to destination or by manipulation of regular published rates. By this con btruction of the agreement it Is proposed to put a stop to the manipulation of through rates , which has been persistently practiced of lute at various junction points. The other decision is In tbo matter of the application of the Southern Pacific for relief from the effect of special contracts made by certain companies whoso lines consti tute n portion of the Northern Pa cific's line. It appears that a number ol contracts have been made in which certain rates are guaranteed for the transportation of freight governed by the by-laws of the association or by the Interstate commerce laws. In the opinion of the board such con tracts constitute an obstncal of n divi sion of competitive tariffs between tlio members , which is contemplated by tbo presidents' agreement. Jt is decided , there fore , that the provision complained of shal be cancelled for all existing contracts urn : that hereafter no concessions or any agree ments of nny nature shall bo made In respcc to other business than to bu covered by the Western Traffic association agreement which have the effect of Influencing the dis tribution of business subject to the agrbemcn of that association. There Is no longer any doubt that tbo question of summer tourist rales will bo sat isfactorily settled by the western roads Chairman Fiuloy has named next Monday n the day for a special tncctine to consider ttio rate. Roads running between St. Louis inn SU Paul nro not to make a lower rate be twccn those points for the season for Ib'.l than bO per cent of the standnr ' " ' rate which has paved the way fo adjustment of the whole matter.
