W L Uedlson , who for the last nineteen
jcais his been connected with the Wabash
line In Council niuffe and bas been most
Intinutcly Identified with all of Its successes ,
has severed his connection with the road
The withdrawal was duo to the fact that
the new olllce to which ho was appointed
since the road Las become the Qulncy and
Port Arthur line , has been abe lohod. After
the reorganization , Mr. IleJIscn was changed
from the onice of general auditor and vva
made assistant general freight agent with
headquarters In Oinha.
Mr. Hedison'w connection with the road hag
been both Interesting and Important. He
was chief clerk and pajmaster during the
construction of the line under J. W. Hlanch-
ard , who was superintendent of construction.
After the completion of the read It was
leased to the Wabash and Mr Iledlaon was
made station agent at Shenandoah , and was
succo , lvol > appointed to the position of
local freight agent at Council Dluffs. Ho
was auditor cashier , general passenger and
ticket agent during the receivership of
Colcncl McKlBsock , general management of
P. M. Call and the receivership of Colonel
J r Barnard He- was the only man In the
Bcrvlco of the read who had been Identified
with Its mcragement from the start , and
no man In anj of Its various managements
was ossesoed of so vvMo and valuable
knowledge of Its bus'ciesa and Its jiatrons.
It Is scarcely probable that the now man
agement will bo willing to dispense with
the bcrvlcrs of Mr , Iledlficn , and It Is Inti
mated In railway circles that there Is a
much better position awaiting him , and that

DOYLE BRISCS A BIG SUIT

Council HliilTH.
Ono of the largest suits over filed In the
district court of Pottawattamlo county wna
Instituted at Council Uluffs yestcrdaj.
The suit Involves ? C20,000 , ullegcd to bo the
proceeds of mining stock sold without au
thority nnd dividends accrued and paid
slnco the sale. The plaintiff Is James Dojlo
and > ho defendant Is James Hums , presi
dent of the Portland Gold Mining com
pany of Council muffs. The property Is In
the Crlpplo Creek district.
The suit came as n most unpleasant nnd
unanticipated shock to the company while
It was engaged In Its annual meeting In
Council lllurfs yesterday. James Dojlc
alleges as the basis of his suit that In 18D1
ha formed a copartnership with a number of
men for the purpose of locating gold mining
property ; that bo was an active member of
this company nnd performed his full share
of tbo work , which was lery successful , re
sulting In the discovery of a number of
\alunblo mines , among them being Uobtall
No. 2. Tldnl Wave and Devil's Own. Doyle
alleges thnt this agreement was subse
quently dissolved without bis knowledge or
consent , and that later Hums , acting In the
name of the company , sold 150,000 shares of
Uobtall to the Portland Mining company of
Council llluffs , reall/lng $2 04 a share. A
dividend of 41 cents was paid on this stock
Immediately after Its transfer. Ho sets
forth the conditions of the agreement by
which ho was to have had one-half of all
of the proceeds from the bale of stock and
dividends of this mine , and he now asks n
judgment for JISG.OOO as bis shaio of tbo
sale and dividend.
IXiylo alleges that Innns sold 350,000 shares
of the Devil's Own stock nt the same piico of
? 204 a share , and that dividends amounting
to $77,000 have been paid on this stock. Ho
asks for his share of one-half of tills trans
action and the same t > ortlon of the dividend ,
amounting to $434,000 , a total of $020,000 in
all.
DRNY DOYLE'S CLAIMS.
The Portland Mining company was going
along smoothly with the work of Its annual
meeting In the olllce of Chancellor L.V. .
Hess when the notice , of the big suit was
served James r. Duma , who Is now presi
dent of the company , nnd F. G. Peck , its
secretary , were banded tbo notices while
they sat around the table In the private
oincc of Chancellor Ross. The notice was
handed to Judge Gunnell , the Colorado at
torney of the company , and was read In
alienee. It wnb Immediately afterward read
aloud ) and discussed witb a good deal of In
terest. Ne aily all the officers and directors
of the company were present , Including
President llurns , Secretary Peck and Gen
eral .Manager John Harman Judge Gunnell
was Inclined to ticat the big suit lightly , and
emphatically declared that Doyle bad no
chance of winning at all. "It Is merely a
sensational attempt to get up a lawsuit , "
bald ho , "Doyle has no claims nt all on any
o the property Involved. The fact of the
matter Is , the transfers and sales he refers
to wcro made In hte presence and with
his full knowledge. He was present at the
meeting and sat tnrougb the discussions
without Interposing any objections. The first
sale was made In February , 1S94 , and the
others In 1895 and 1S96. If ho bad any claims
on tbo property ho would very naturally have
taken some Interest at that time. The fact
Is that Doyle never really bad any Interest
In the company at any time , nor had he any
Interest or any part In tbo locating company
or Its work. "
Doyle has been preparing for this suit for
a long time. The , papers were all ready for
filing and wcro being withheld eolely for
the purpose of timing the filing with tbo date
of the annual meeting hero , thus getting
service quickly and easily upon all of tbo
members of the company , nnd some of the
directors.
The mining property Is located at Victor ,
Cole , In the Cripple Creek district. The
company Is an Iowa corporation , but the
stock Is all held by Colorado people. The
general olllcce are located at Colorado
Spi ings.
iBETWDCN DOYLU AND BURNS.
Later developments show that the suit
is not Intended to apply to the Portland
Mining company , but is simply a fight be
tween Doyle and llurns Doyle's attorney ,
Scott Ashton , was In Council Bluffs yester
day superintending the commencement of
tbo suit and making sure that personal
service was secured upon Burns Ho says
the suit Is not Intended to affect the mining
company. "Mr. Burns , " tbo said , "secured
possession of the stock belonging to Dojle ,
and the suit Is only to compel an account-
Ing. When the company received the first
notice It vas believed to bo a suit against
the company. Individual service was ob
tained upon Burns at noon. "
Tbo episode did not Interfere witb tbo
prompt transaction of tbo business for which
thu nnmial meeting was held. This was to
receive the report of the general manager
and elect the now board of directors. The
report Is very voluminous and makes a fine
showing. It shows that In the Portland
group of mines the gross output for the
year was 57,981.25 ounces of gold and
5,54380 ounces of silver , having a total
gross value of $1,162,57283. Tbo treatment
charges for the output wcro $1S1,5GG 53 ,
leaving a gross value to tbo mine of $981-
00 30 , The grand totals for all of tbo
mines operated made a gross earning to
the company of $993,039.10.
The new directors elected were ; J. F.
Bums , K. V. Peck , John Harnan , W. S.
Strattatn and H. C. Hall. Alter the elec
tion the board adjourned to meet at tbo
general offices In Colorado Springs on
rebrunry 11 , for the purpose of electing tbo
olllceia Tor the now year.

If Administrator P. D. Wead of Omaha
falls to secure a verdict against the Lake
Manawa Railway company for tbo killing of
his brother In a deplorable crossing acci
dent It will bo largely for the reason that
the attorneys for tbo railway company pretty
clearly established the fact that Sldener ,
the driver of the carryall In which the
Omaha party wcro returning from the lake ,
was Intoxicated , and that this condition was
the prlnio rauso of the accident. The do-
fcnso had Its Innings yeuterday , nnd upon
this point Introduced a mass of the most
conclusive kind of testimony. It was first
shown that SIdcncr spent almost the entire
day at the lake In n saloon on the other
sldei , drinking. The bartender , Paul Meyer ,
swore that to tbo best of his recollection
the driver drank nt least a dozen glasses of
beer wbllo bo bad charge of tbo bar , Kvl-
deneo was also Introduced to show that
Sldener had brought over a friend named
Yoedcr , and that the two men were drink
ing together around the various resorts at
the laUe. 'Boatman ' Zimmerman , who had
ehargo of ono of tbo boats plyliis across the
lake , testified that both Sldener and Vender -
der wcro Intoxicated when they returnol
from Manhattan brach and that Sldencr
was BO under the Influence of liquor that
he fell out of the lioat on tbo return trip.
Cojoncl Iteed ami other witnesses testified
to thu same fact.
Oa the question as to whether the en
gineer sounded his -whlstlo as bo approached
the crossing , there was a otrong preponder
ance of evidence showing that ho did. Among
Uio witnesses who testified on this point ,
wcro nov V C. Roche ami < Mra Uocho ,
who were passengers on the train and who
came from their now home near Chicago to
glvo their evidence Both distinctly recol
lected hearing the whlstlo nnd the bell
when the train was passing around the
curve. The fact was fixed In their minds
by a number of Incidents that were re
lated , All of the train crew and several
people who were at the pavilion In the
Grand Plaza at the time recalled the fact
that they heard the whistle blow as the
train approached the crossing , which Is but
a short distance from the gates.
The evidence for the defense will prob
ably bo completed today nnd the prosecu
tion will Introduce a number of witnesses
In rebuttal Considerable reliance Is placed
upon the fact by the attorneys for the pros
ecution that the railway company failed to
provide the necessary sign nt the crossing
showing the location of the tracks The
state law requires this to bo done nt all
grade crossings In the country The defend
ant opposes this with the claim that Its
road Is a street car line and that the crossIng -
Ing lies within the limits , or did at that
time , of the town of Manawa. Judge Thor-
ncll Is holding all day session ol the court
nnd did not order an adjournment last
evening until G o'clock. The case Is being
pushed with nil vigor and It Is probable
that It will bo concluded by the middle of
the week.

The city cojncll last night passed a series
of ordinances Intended to bring nil of tbo
electric companies and all of the users ol
electricity for all purposes under the direct
control of the city. Until the present time
there has never been any attempt at such

office of city electrician. There lias really
been no such office In the city , and the title
las been conferred upon the electrician of the
fire department by courtesy. The new ordi
nance Creates the office and provides that the

City Attorney Hnzelton called attention to
tbo necessity for the council deciding whether
the superintendent of markets be elected by
ballot at the regular spring election or bo
appointed by the council , as has heretofore
been done Under the now code the council
must decide which couise to take , either being
permissible. The law also makes the election
or appointment for a term of two years , In
stead of one. After same discussion the coun
cil decided to elect the superintendent by-
vote of tbo people. It was decided to make
nil of the appointive officers one year each ,
aid the city attorrey was Instructed to draw
an ordinance to tfoal effect.

The American Long Distance Telephone
company returned the city's bill for $182
as tax on 1S2 poles carrying tbo limes of
the company from the ofilco qf the Nebraska
Telephone company to the MIs-ourl river.
The Long Distance company had paid Its
tax en 101 poles leading Into the city from
the cast to the central telephone office on
Pearl street , but objects to paying the tax
of $1 a polo on the poles through tbo western
part of the city for the reason that these
poles belong to the Nebraska Telephone
company. Tbo matter was referred to a
special committee consisting of Shutcrt ,
Sayles and Brough , with Instructlonb to In
vestigate and report at the next meeting
The application of Mlko Klldare for a

Hero la the boardj of control bill that will
bo laid before the senate by the ways and
meaiid committee of thnt body :
A central board of three members vested
vvllh complete executive authority ; the
members to be appointed by the govcrnoi
and confirmed by a two-thirds majority of
the senate ; ono to bo of the minority party ,
the chairman of the board to bo designated
by the governor and to draw $3,500 a. year ;
the others $3,000 each and a secretary at
$2,000 ; all local boards of trustees to bo
entirely abolished ; the board to have com-
plcto control over all Institutions except
the. State University , the Agricultural college -
lego and the State Normal school ; these
three educational Institutions to bo left ex
actly aa they "now arc In control ot their
own boards of trustees or regents ; the now
law to take effect July 1 next , unless made
effective sooner ns a result of a legislative
agreement , of which there Is some Indica
tion ; local treasurers to be abolished nnd
all money to be paid direct from the state
treasury.
Such Is the scheme agreed upon by the
subcommittee of the senate ways and means
committee this evening. The subcommittee
wjp named some time ago. It Is composed
of Chairman Punk , Senators Healy , Berry ,
Junkln , Overall and Carney. Its plan waa
outlined at a meeting this evening nnd
Senator Hcaly was appointed to draft the
measure. Ot even more Importance than
the details of the plan , Is the fact that the
six members of the subcommittee agreed
on every one of the propositions without
dissent. Senator Hcaly bad an hod from
his eastern trip In the morning , having
been away about three weeks examining
Into the workings of board of control plans
In New York , Massachusetts , Michigan and
Wisconsin. The senate baa been polled with
considerable care and Is believed to bo safe
fur bitch a measure. The house Is not so
certain. A special committee has been ap
pointed In that body ot seven members to
draft a bill. It Is believed a majority of
this commlttco will accept the general plan
of the senate commlttco measure , but this
Is not certain.
HOUSn IN B\D HUMOR.
The house was In bid humor today and
killed every measure icportcd to It from
committees Ono of these was the bill by-
Putnam to allow counties of over 30,000 to
Increase the salaiy of county treasurer. It
received foity-elght votes , three less than
a majoilty , and will be called up at another
tlmo when there Is n larger attendance nnd
passed without troubje. Under the order ot
correction of the journal report Stewart ot
Polk said ho bnJ been counted on the
wrong side of the anti-pooling resolution
Saturday. The resolution was to call on
congress to defeat the pooling and antl-
scalplng bills It passed , 35 to 33 , according
to the journal ; but Wr. Stewart , who was
counted as voting for It , declared that ho
was misunderstood The change of bis vote
made It n tie , which defeated the resolution.
The McFarland Grain company , the biggest
concern of the fort with headquarters in
Des Moines , has concluded that the grain
traffic from this section w ill hereafter be
diverted to the Gulf. As a result It bas
abandoned Its elevator at Madrid and other

IOWA CITY , Fob. 7. ( Speclal.- Thc uni
versity faculty has said "no" to the students'
prayers for the seml-pnrdon of the suspended
twenty -three. The following resolution vvns
adopted by the faculty :
"Resolved , That thePOV oral' petitioners bo
Informed that their respectful reprcbenta-
tlons have received the most careful con
sideration. Tbo faculty feels compelled , how.
ever , In the Interest of discipline nnd In
splto of a strong feeling of personal
sympathy for these who are undergoing
punishment and for their friends , not to re
duce the period of suspenblon "
The faculty received the commlttco ap
pointed by the mass meeting and accepted
the resolutions presented by the quintet.
The young men made no speeches , but loft
their document In the hands of the profes
sors , practically all of whom were present ,
Prcslde-nt Schaeffer being out of town.
The faculty was In session for two hours ,
and guvo the matter careful consideration.
It Is generally believed that certain mem
bers wcro w > me\vhat Inclined1 to show signs
of relenting and that they favored mitiga
tion. Others It Is alleged , freely used the
word "discipline" and thus caused all the
prayer-softened profecsors to aland as firmly
ns ever.
The punishment of the condemned partici
pants In the "scrapo , " therefore , will not bo
mitigated. That Is settled. It Is probable
that the period of penalty will close ( for nil
but ono of the twerity-threc ) at the end ot
the term , March ,21 certainly not before.
This , however , Is not absolutely certain.
When asked Ifi Uio twenty-two more

DCS Moines Leader : Whatever kind o
reapportlonment measure Is adopted , Polk
county feels reasonably sure ot getting the
worst of It.
Perry Chief : If the Iowa legislature wll
pass a measure thnt will break the splnn
column of the school book trust , the body
can adjourn with the long credit mark
Such a relief will bo appreciated more by
the people of Iowa than anything else the
lawmakers can do at this session ,
Cedar Rapids Republican : The Ottumwa
Democrat Is threatening John P. Laccy will
defeat because of bis vote against the Teller
resolution. No Iowa congressman will bo
defeated before the people because of thai
vote. The Shaw campaign settled forever
the question of whether It pays or not to bo
brnvo on the money Issue.
Burlington Hawkcye- The habitual crim
inal bill now- pending In the Iowa legislature
Is deserving of consideration. The experi
ence with similar measures In other states
Is reported to bo favorable. Wo would suppose -
pose such acts would become more valuable
In dealing with crime ns they came Into
moro general adoption by the various states
Keokuk Gate City' A bill has been In
troduces ! In tbo legislature dlmltlng rail
road faro on all lines to 2 cents a mile. The
author of the measure mistakes the nature
nnd temper of Iowa people. They are nol
of tbo 2-ccnt kind and are not clamoring
for 2-ecnt rides. If the roads were com
pelled to reduce their passenger rates one-
third they would have to cut down their
passenger service to correspond. Iowa
people are not anxious to go back to the
conditions In thlb respect of twenty-five
and thirty years ago.

The Installation of now fast train service
through here by two of the greatest of west
ern railroads marked an era of western railroading
reading that Is bound to be of Immense Im
portance , not only to the railroads , but to
the traveling public and the people of the
country through which the new trains run.
Not deterred from est > bllshlne fast train
service by the threats of other lines to cut
the rates , the Northwestern-Union Pacific
nnd the Utirllugton railroads have run their
Initial trains of the new service between
Chicago and Denser.
The controveisy over the new trains and
the rates on the slower trains of other roads
have developed Into quite a fight among the
four principal wcitcrn lines and a con
ference of the general pacsenger agents nnd
executive officers of these lines Is being held
In Chicago today in the hope of clearing up
a few disputed points President Horace G.
Hurt and General PaFbouger and Ticket
Agent Lomox of the Union Pacific went over
to Chicago last night to take part In the
meeting It Is said that the Northwestern-
Union Pacific combination will stand firm
on the matter of continuing the fast trains
that have already been placed In service.
The Durllngton officials announce thnt they
will keep their fast trains on Just ns Ion , ;
> as those of the Northwestern-Union Pacific
are In service. As to differential rates , It Is
said on good authority , that If the Rock
Island and Santa Te attempt to lower the
rates for their slower trains the Northwest
ern-Union Pacific nnd the Burlington rends
will meet every cut made , as they promptly
met the cut that was advertised but ono cUv
last week. Among the best Informed men In
local railway circles this morning It
was the belief that tbo result of
the conference In Chicago would bo the
decision of the Hock Island to follow the
course pursued by the Northwestern-Union
Pacific and the liurllngton roads and place
faster passenger trains In service between
Chicago and Denver. It was unofilclnlly an
nounced this morning that the now trains
of the Rock Island , Nos. 21 and 22 , would
po&ltlvely bo placed In service on Sunday
next , Pebrunry 13 , but nothing authentic
regarding the restoration of these trains
was received hero during the morning. Gen
eral Agent Rutherford of tbo passenger de
partment of the Rock Island Is in at Chicago
headquarters today watching the movements
made there.

CHICAGO , Feb. 7. The conference be
tween the AtchUon , Durllngton , Northwest
ern nnd Rock Island regarding the fast train
service lately put Into effect to Denver by
the Burlington and the Northwestern was
continued today , nnd like all previous con
ferences on this subject came to nothing.
The representatives of the four roads met
early this morning and debated the matter
until noon The Rock Island and the Atchl-
pen demanded thnt the other roads should
charge an extra faro of $5 on the fast tialns ,
but the Burlington and the Northwestern
steadily refused to do anything of the kind
The question waa argued back and forth ,
but nothing would bo conceded by either side
and finally the meeting adjourned until 3
o'clock In the afternoon.
At this tlmo the Atchluon made a propo
sition to submit the matter to arbitration ,
but this plan was declined. Then It was
proposed to tbo Northwestern and the liur
llngton that they consent to a lower faro
being made to Pueblo nnd Colorado Spring ?
than to Denver , the rate to the three polntJ
being now the same This was dlscuifscd at
some length and 1 > eforo it had bean settled
an adjournment was taken until Thursday
of this week ,
In the meantime there will bo no .reduced
rates to Denver , notice being eont to all In
terested lines that the fltuatlon will remain
unchanged until after Thursday at leant.

Receiver Cow en of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad has made a lengthy ttatcmcnt In
regard to the application in the United
States court for the leasing of C ISO cars
Of the passenger equipment ho says The
receivers obtain by lease from the Pullman
company 3,000 cars , and the only obllgntlon
which they assurno In relation to these 3,000
ram Is to pay a rental for them equivalent
to 10 per cent of their test , each jear , for
the period of two years , and the Interest
upon the cost for the same time. No
equipment obligations are Issued. The re
ceivers' obligation Is , therefore , uubstan-
tlnlly $300,000 , being the rental payments
for two years , and without the Ibsulnu of
any car trust obligations Therefore , the
net result of the whole affair In that the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad company BO-
cures 5 150 cars , and the receivers'
( Ion tor principal amounts to about $100 , *
000 , payable In two jevira. The mileage
alone on the 3,000 cars to bo secured from
