pondent "IUllretd," who twems deeply
interested la the building of the Safe
Harber railroad and seems le knew some
thing about it, devotes -considerable apaee
In your last Isaue te a criticism of my report
(If It can be called one) te the Beard of
Trade at its last meeting) and yen
devote a mneb greater apaes te labored
editorial endorsement of your correspond
ent This apparently concerted attack Ii
be unusual and no 'entirely unwarranted
that I ask room for a brief statement et facta
in reply. -
First I take all responsibility for tbe so se
called report and desire te add, that no man
bad any understanding with me as te where,
wnen.er hew our committee should report,
my understanding being that we would as
usual atale the situation brlctly every
tnentf when called en by the beard for our
monthly report
Second. l,never took bold of any move
ment with mera oirneiaiMuer In greater
geed faith' than the SifelHarber ralliead
project
When the managers of tbe enterprise de
sired an Interview with our committee, 1
eent notes of Invitation net only te the com
mittee but te 25 or 30 of our members most
likely te be Intonated In the project We
had quite a full meeting. Our railroad
commltteo agreed te raise the money te pay
for securing tbe right of way and a com
mittee out of our niembers was appointed
te solicit subscriptions tborefer. One et
this committee, Dr. Wlekersham, could net
act, and te the neglect of my own business,
I tried te take bis place and assisted Mr.
Gee. N. Kjynelds, the ether member, te
canvass tbe groater part et the city with
rather lndiffarent success, I must admit
I then, believing It my duty, walked
and rede as neerly as practicable ever tbe
entire route, from DillervlUe te fafe Har Har
eor ; and again, en the suggestion of
several gentlemeu familiar with both
routes, ever the line from James and Mul
berry streets te the Columbia turnpike,
beyond Abbyvllle.
At the following meeting of the Heard el
Trade I considered it my duty te the beard
when called en for my report te tell Just
what I knew about the Beveral railroad
projects under consideration. In pursuance
thereof I gave the statement el cost and the
probable gross earnings and expenses as
fnrnlahed us by the managoraef the Bare
Harber enterprise, and added that we
thought the catltnale about correct, except
in the niRtter et passenger roeolpts, which
we thought Hheuld be higher, and gave the
reasons ter this belief. 1 then stated that
another reute had been suggested, leaving
the present route near the Columbia turn
pike beyond Jehn u. Uager'a residency
tanning te James street near College ave
nue and thence down James te Charlette,
where it could connect with the 1'onnsyl 1'ennsyl
vaula railroad by their line running up
Charlolte street (which neither critic seems
te knew el), tbonce down James le Mul
berry, where it could connect with the
Reading, using their rails thence te the
Stevens house for passengers. I said this
latter route from tbe best information 1
could get would eave ene toenoand a-ball
miles In dlstance and tberelere save 10 per
cant la running expenses for all time,
besides accommodating the northwestern
part of our city. Mr. Reynolds and I had
ale agreed that it would be proper togive
(be beard eomeldea of the foiling of our
people as gathered in our soliciting tour ip
regard te building this read. This I did ae
truthfully as 1 could and certalnly showed
no approval of the general apathy mani
fested. All of this was surely In commendation
et tbe reed but having no purpose or desire
te decelve anyene, I also deemed It my
duty te state te the beard what is a faet that
the passenger station of the Pennsylvania
railroad at Safe Harber is en the opposite
side of the creelr from our read, and that
they also owned the right et way as well as
thetrackef the long siding (mllocrmere)
running from their main line up te the iron
works en our side of tbe creek, and that If
they rdOisetoallew us te connect with or
use their riding, or te move their passenger
station te our side of tbe creek it would
cause us considerable expense, and this
seems te have been the head and front et
my ellendlng.
" Railroad" cautiously says In regard te
fixing this matter with the Pennsylvania
railroad company "when tbe preper time
comes te take up matters et this kind, 1
think they can be satisfactorily arranged
without much trouble." Yeu reacli the
same conclusion by a much shorter cut :
'There will be no dltUculty there (Safe
Harber) about the depot," and f presume
this will cempd the Pennsylvania railroad
te permit us te nse their long siding as part
of our main line.
1 de net have se much confidence that
railroad companies will de a thing just be
cause I or he wants It done. Yeu, however,
settle the whole business a few lines further
down in these words : "The railroad will
be built ; and will be built te a connection
near DillervlUe with the Pennsylvania and
Reading." While net enjoying tbe serene
confidence In this oracular statement, 1
think I will rejoice as heartily when it Is
done.
And 11 " Railroad " or you will produee
one Blngle member et the Heard of Trade
who was present at its last meeting who
will fay they understood me nven with my
admltted " Infelicitous mode of expres
sion," as trying te " place obstacles " In
tbe way of the Safe Harber read farther
than tbe truth about the Sale Harber terml
nus would de It or that 1 showed tbe slight
est " lack et sympathy " with it ; then I
will agree that both their criticisms are de
served. The only posslble cause which I can see
for this totally uncalled ler attack upon
myselt by both these gentlemen is that 1
mentioned te the beard ei Trade of whleh
I was a member one of tbe new admitted
difficulties In the way of building the pre
posed read and the Inquiry suggests itself
"did they wish this dlilieulty kept bidden
until alter peeple have subscribed tbelr
money te tbe enterprise." I would net like
te think se, but it seems open te that
suspicion.
I believe that the best way te get money
for any enterprise Is te tell tbe whole truth
about It, bad as well as geed, and if tbe
Sate Harber read is te be built by suppress
ing any material fact from tbe stockholders
and if the railroad committee of the Beard
of Trade are expected te aid in this, it will
need a new chairman.
"Railroad" in his concluding paragraph
insinuates that the railroad oemmittee bad
reasons of tbelr own for net endorsing tbe
enterprise. Se far as 1 am concerned this
insinuation Is totally untrue and lying by
Insinuation rregard as the meanest kind or
lying. R. J. Housten,
Ieiptrtlnc the Clay Street Stner.
Friday afternoon the water works and
sewer committee, together with the mayor
and water commission, made a thorough
Inspection of the Clay street sewer. An
expert was eent into the sewer and trav
ersed Us entire extent, 2,233 feet, tad re
ported the interior of the arch te be is first
dam condition, and thoroughly cemented
en tbe Inside. A few finishing touches
en the outside have yet te be made by tbe
contractor, whleh will require only tew
daya' work. Tbe officials seemed te be
well satisfied that the Jeb waa a geed one,
ana will no doubt recommend councils te
aeajp. It.
AI-IKK H IS BIQHT DOM.ARH.
Benjamin Hreaamaa Baa Eaaannel nettle
man Arrested ler TaBlag Bis Meney,
Bmanuel Helsleman la man who deea
net seem te be happy unless he la involved
in a scrape or aeme kind. He seems te
have a fondness for appropriating the
money of ether people and that weaknesa
baa again put blm In trouble. During the
month of May Helsleman was peddling
had through the county. One day he
topped at tbe residence of Benjamin
Breneman, near Landlsvllle, and that gen
tleman purchased 112 worth of fish. He
gave Helsleman a 120 geld piece In pay
ment. Heialeman said he had no change
but would go among the neighbors
te soil some mere fish and would
return with Mr. Breneman'a balance.
The temptation was tee great for Emanuel
and he pocketed tbe money. Mr. Brene
man made complaint against him before
Alderman McConemy and a warrant for
his arrest was placed in the hands of Cen
stable Plckel, of Petersburg. Tbe officer
looked for hi man for several daya and
did net find him until last evening.
Helsleman was standing near the tent at
the riding school, at tbe upper part or North
Queen street Piekel went up te him and
read his warrant He followed this by
pulling a pair of handeufls from his pocket
whleh he Intended te put 'en Helsleman.
The latter did net think be had done sum-
olent te entitle him te wear a pair "wrlsters"
se he rebelled. He tried te push Plckel
away and finally hit blm a stinging blew
in the eye. Helsleman then ran towards
Faegleyavllle followed by Plokel,whe fired
his pistol at blm. The ball almost struck
Helsleman, who beard it whistle past his
bead. After this disebarge of lllery the
men bad another tussle and finally, when
Officer Ebrman came te Pickel'a assistance,
Helsleman agreed te go along. He would
nat wear the ImndcuUs, however, and
Plckel made no further ellerts te force him.
At the alderman's ofllee Heialeman entered
ball for a hearing.
Ilefore tha Mayer.
The mayor disposed et four cases this
morning. First en the list was Jehn
Crewley. He waa employed en the con
struction of the new sewer and celebrated
the event of Its completion by gettlng
drunk. As he was net noisy and it was
bis first ellense he was dlseharged.
Charles Dennis, who lest an eye In an
aoeidont and through whleh his remaining
eye is affected, was arrested by Officer
Ehrmsn for begging. Dennlsadmltted the
eharge te be correct and his reason ter
begging was that it was bis only means et
getting a living. He expressed a desire te
be sent te tbe county almshouse and the
mayor ansomniedated blm.
The. Alisen, a young Englishman, was
found wandering en the streets near mid
night and was given lodging at the station
house. He Bald he worked at mining in
the old country and came here te better,
bis condition, bnt thus far he has been
unsuccessful. Tbe mayor told blm te try
te get work here te earn snOlelent money
te take blm te the coal mines and he
premised te de se.
Number four en tbe list was Henry Mttz
ger, a young man residing in this city, who
was arrested ter disorderly conduet at tbe
court home corner at an early hour this
morning. He was committed te the station
bouse ter ten hour.

dispatch from Kansas says : Frem the
statement of Charles lllee, a farmer, who
earns In Thursday from Stevens oeunty,'the
scene of the railroad county aeat fight be
tween the te waa of Bngstea and Weeds-
dale, it appears that tbe entire population
la under arms. Mr. Klee says squads et
armed men and mounted citizens from both
places patrol the country night and day for
miles around. These gangs act aa foraging
pertlee, and have but Utile respect for tbe
property et ethers. On Monday night two
of these patrols belonging te different fac
tions met and a oenfliot eniraed, during
whleh a regular futllade waa kept up. It
la net known whether any one was
wounded, but three dead horses were found
ea the prairie the next morning.
The situation la serious, and tbe efiest of
the warfare will be felt long after the fight
shall have ceased. Farmers are riding
around armed instead of tilling their seli,
and crops are likely te fall In consequence.
Governer Martin bas commanded the
militia te be la readiness for marching
orders at any time. It Is hoped that the

The following letter te tbe Philadelphia

oelored leader or the Seventh ward, of
Philadelphia, la Interesting as ahewlng
hew the spirit of Independence la develop
ing among tbe negrees, upon whose sub-
aervleney the Republicans have always
relied Implleltly. The address of Mr.
Elk Ins that is referred te advocated a
ehange of Republican tactleaby doing away
with the race Issue and seeking te break
the solid Seuth through Industrial ques
tions. Mr. Ball's letter says :
The speech et Hen. Stephen B. Elklns
before the West Virginia institute should
be carefully read by every intelligent
oelored man In tbe United States, That
we should be free traders as against pro
tection, there la no one but will admit the
foree or the argument that the present
tariff legislation has nothing In It ter the
negre's future. Aa te his benefits therefrem
he is no party te his wages, and his stand
ing with the commercial world will be the
same under free trade aa nndera protective
system, aa they cannot be further redueed.
The factory doers have been and will re
main forever closed against him, and the
machine shops and the machinists them
selves have organized te keep the Ameri
can negre forever out of tbelr Institutions.
Therefore, If our vote la te be divided en
economical questions, there Is no better
time te commence than new. Our devo
tion te the Republican party baa been a sin
and a hindrance te our advancement I
am in favor or a convention being called
and the matter laid plainly before the peo

Basks Maintenance.
A few years age William H. Gorreeht len
this elty and went te California. He made
no prevision for the maintenance of his
wife, and ahe made application te the
beard of peer directors for relief. Tbe peer
directors upon looking after the matter
learned that he was possessed of oonsld eonsld oensld
rable estate, held In trust for him. In
order te reach thla property two el the peer
directors this afternoon made an affidavit
setting forth the above facta before Alder
men Deen and ISarr. These magistrates
return the affidavit te oeurt as If the defen
dant was charged with desertion.
Tbe matter will then be argued
and the act of assembly provides
that the oeutt may then decree a spclfie
sum te be paid for the maintenance of the
wife from the husband's estate. Thla pro pre pro
eeedlng Is new In this elty, and It la the

The Democratle national oenventlouat
St Leuis waa a notable gathering. In the
oharaeter of Its composition and the spirit
whleh animated It, the assemblage was far
above any held by the party slnee the war,
while the hearty and enthusiaatla unanim
ity with which the head of the ticket was
chosen Is almost without precedent In
tbe whole history or tbe organiza
tion, extending ever a period or one hun
dred years. This latter feature covers a
profoundly significant faet. The man thus
honored la net a great military chieftain,
like Jacksen, appealing powerfully by his
exploits te the herole Instincts of men, nor
yet a brilliant and magnolle political leader
drawing te himself an admiring and
onthusiastle following by tbe mero force et
his personality, tils ia only a plain,
straightforward, honest, outapekon, fearless
man, who has had the oiuraseef strenir
oenvlotlons and the atrength te give them
force. And, leek at It bow ene will, there
Is no esoape from the conclusion that a sim
ple dovetlon te duty, a oensolontlotis exe
cution of the trust reposed In htm by the
people, and a watchful care against en.
oreaohmenta upon their rights were tbe
prime elements that led up te tbe extra
ordinary spectacle el Wednesday neon.
One cannot consider It all without feel
ing mere than ever assured that a govern
ment of tbe people will net perish from
the earth. It teaches a wholesome les les
eon. Frem this time forth let It net be
said that aubterfuge and double deal
ing are greater forces in politics than
honesty and plain speaking. When aueh
traits or official oharaeter are being worthily
reoegmred, the nomination of honest old
Allen a. Thurman, who had been hereto
fore almost tee honest for tbe reception of
much honor at tbe handa of his party oemes
In perfect harmony with tbe occasion a
