It has been learned that President Fulda, of

mount of money to Sullivan to fight jackson,
nd that the latter must bold himself in roadl

Slavin is so w champion of England, and he
Wants to fight either Jackson or anybody else

The Pelican Club has offered 85,000 for a
battle between Smith and Mitchell. The con
test may take place, bnt Mitchell is much out
of condition. He is now eager to meet Smith
since tbe tatter's recent defeats, and Smith just
wants to have revenge at Mitchell. Tbe gen
eral opinion bere is that Smith has met a class
of men better than either himself or Mitchell.
Smith is supposed to know this, and he wants
to impress the fact on Mitchell's mind. At
any rate, there is lots of money in England to
pack Slavin against Jackson.

pictured for tbe Association a bright future.
The financial backing of tbe numerous appli

could not distinguish between them. A 12-cl ub
league was then proposed, and a letter was ac
cordingly written President Phelps, apprising
blm of the scheme. A meeting will be called
next week at Rochester, when the clubs will
be admitted and tbe Association of 1890 made

In my opinion, tbe Association will be equal, if
not snpendr, to any other baseball organiza

call it next week, although I have not decided
upon the day. Tbe many applicants Lave all

MILLER'S WARM WORDS.
He Says a Few Things Abont One or Two
Bnll Plnycrs.
George Miller, the famous catcher and h'tter
of the old local team, arrived in the city yester
dav. He was looking well and clings to his
first love, the National League.
"I want to keep with people who made me,"
he said last evening, "and 1 have a word or two
to say to one or two conceited characters who
call themselves ball players. Nobody will take
them at a premium. I mean a man or two
hom the old club wouldn't have if Brunswick
& Balke wnuid givo all their tables in and
even on top of that all tbe 1,000-for-a-Sl cigars
that -ne could get. I mean no good ball players;
but I'll let somebody know what I mean one of
tbese days. My name is George Miller, and
Pm a ball player I'm also a man. I was never
released, because I was a monkey. I am still
playing ball, and will play under the same con
ditions on which my companions, the mill
workers, work viz: for tbe highest prices.
Some exploded boasters couldn't get on a dia
mond if they wonld even get the color of beer
from their faces. I am always George Miller."
TO-MORROWS BIG EACE.
Starts for tbe Prd to Kick a Little About
in a Preliminary Wny.
The echoes of tbe recent big pedestrian con
test at tbe London Theater were beard all
along the streets yesterday. Hegelman won,
of course, and won honorably and plnckily.
Moore, Guerrero and Hart bare arrived from
Cleveland to take part in a 12-hour race to
morrow. The other starters will be Day,
Snicer, Noremac. Glick, Siebert and Smith.
The race is on handicap terms, and Sammy
Day is dn-counted because be hasn't more than
four miles start ot Guerrero, who is at tbe
scratch. Guerrero is kicking because Spicer
has two miles start. Moore and Noremac each
have two ir'les on Guerrero. Glick has four
and Sleber has five. Hart lias two miles. Not
withstanding tbe kick of Guerrero, he seems to
have a good race in hand.

DISAPPEARED ON HIS WEDDING DAT.
A Mystery That a Pretty Girl Wonld Like
Clenrcd Dp.
rSFECIAI. TXLEOBJIM TO THE DISP ITCH.
Hew Hayen, Conn., December 30.
People living in the borough of West
Haven are considerably exercised over the
sudden disappearance of William Hyde.
Since last Tuesday, the evening
of his wedding day, nothing
has been Seen or heard of him. Young Hyde
belongs to a good family, and was engaged
to Hiss Nellie Conlan, one of the prettiest
girls in the borough. He was a Protestant,
while she is a Catholic.
Hyde's engagement to Miss Conlan exer
cised his friends greatly. His parents
disowned him, and tbe social circle in
which he moved ostracized him. He per
sisted in remaining true to the girl, and
weut so far as to engage the services of a
priest to marry him on Tuesday evening.
He spent the greater part of the day with
Miss Conlan, and left her to prepare for the
ceremony. That is the last that has been
seen of him.
THE FAILURES OF 1889.

AN AEMSTE0KGTCIT1ZBN ON THE LATTER
Possibility or a Epur Beaching Off to the Eharpsrille
Begloa.
There is going to be jealousy in the Alle
gheny Valley if the Beaver, Mahoning and
Shenango Valleys get that ship canal. So
much is certain. The probabilities of the
route are discussed. An Armstrong county
man pats in his plea for the Allegheny Val
ley. He does so, though, with an admission
that the dice seem to be loaded the other
way.
truoK oca srsciai. commissioneh.
Shabpsyille, December 30. In one of
the former letters in this series it was stated
that X M. Goodwin, the practical engineer
of the Erie and Ohio river canal scheme,
said it must be borne in mind that the val
leys of the Shenango and the Mahoning
rivers wonld be both included in any ship
canal which might be bnilt. He wonld
have, either way, a spur running from one
to the other of the valleys.
It is something of importance to both val
leys tbata ship canal shonld be of benefit to
the towns in each oi the valleys. Without
permitting any assumption of belief as to
which valley, or whether either valley, may
be the lucky one in the matter of an allot
ment ot a ship canal, it may be said, gener
ally, that the indnstries of each are so inter
laced and so interdependent upon each other
that the bond of sympathy between them is
stronger than was that of the Siamese twins.
These valleys are American giants, whether
twins or not.
A SPTJB IS PBACI1CABLE.
But it is easily to be seen by a glance at
the map that there wonld be little difficulty
in running a spnr up the Shenango Valley
to Sharpsviile, in case the main canal comes
down the Mahoning. Sharpsviile would
be far enough up, becanse there is no place
between it and Erie which would realty
need a canal. Clarksville, Greenville,
Adamsville, etc., are but small places. It
would be less costly to build the canal be
tween New Castle and Sharpsviile than
from New Castle to the month of the Beaver.
On tbe other hand, if the canal should
come down the Shenango Valley, it will
not be any more difficult to build a spur up
the Mahoning as far as Toungstown. Along
the Mahoning,up as far as the place named,
there are many heavy-tonnage industries
which would be immensely benefited by a
ship canal.
AN ALLEGHENY YALLEY KICK.
But all the people of Western Pennsyl
vania wonld not be satisfied with either
route. Let me quote what a prominent gen
tleman of Armstrong county says to me in a
private letter on the subject:
"The people of Western Pennsylvania,"
he says, "unite in the belief that this is one
of the greatest schemes looking to the full
development of the country ever proposed
in any of onr legislative bodies. We are
proud of the fact that our national water
ways are such as will be entirely sufficient
to supply such a canal; that they flow
through a country ricb in soil and minerals,
and that although many places of interest
are hampered by lack of railroad competi
tion, yet great manufacturing industries
have sprung up in the very face of such dis
advantages. It must follow, then, that to
cut a great canal like the one proposed from
the lakes to the Ohio river, to come into
competition with almost every railroad in
terest in the country, would be a magnifi
cent scheme for the country generally, and
more especially for the particular localities
through which it would pass.
"In this venture we are all interested,"
the gentleman continued; "but the people
of the Allegheny Valley bave begun to
suspect that our river is not to be taken into
consideration by this commission.
THE GOVEBNOB SHOULD KNOW.
"I have even heard it charged that tbe
members of that commission were selected
cither on account of residing in the Beaver
Valley, or having a moneyed interest there
that would be benefited by the selection of
that route. However this may be, I am
free to assert that, so far as lean learn,
there is no member of that delegation who
has either a residence, a boat, or a mill in
the Allegheny Valley.
"We do not hesitate to say, further, that
we think all the possible ro'ntes shonld have
been represented on that commission, and
that, because a Beaver county man intro
duced a bill, the full intent of which would
cost the nation many millions ot dollars, is
no excuse for the Governor to make such an
appointment as would invest that money in
Beaver county.
"At the first or second meeting of the
commission," the Armstrong county man
contiuuedj "a prominent engineer reported
at length in favor of the Allegheny river
route as being the most suitable, both from
a point of water supply and cost of con
struction; but we have not heard of him
nor of the Allegheny river route in connec
tion with this project since."
TO EXAMINE ALL BOUTES.
These are the chief ideas of tbe gentle
man's letter. Of course, I do not propose
to discuss any route; but readers of The
Dispatch will remember that on the
last day the commission met, which
was in Bochester. Mr. Shallenberger
distinctly said that the commission was sure.
in any event, to go over the Allegheny river
route before making a final report, as he
thought that much was due to all tbe people
of the State. It is nevertheless true, how
ever, that tbe present leanings are toward
the Shenango and Beaver Valley routes,
with the Mahoning Valley as a possible side
issue. C. T. Dawson.

Insurance Policies Tbo Itnscnl
Worked All CI fines.
Siotrx Falls, 8. D., December 30.
Detectives are hunting for Dexter G.
Turner, who, according to statements of
State Auditor Kyler, now in this city, is
one of the most accomplished insurance
rascals that ever operated in this section of
the country. "Turner," said the Stats
Auditor, "came to Soulh Dakota
in June representing himself as
tbe State Agent of South Da
kota for the Citizens' Life Association,
of Cherokee. la. He immediately proceeded
to organize the State in systematic manner
to solicit li!e insurance lor mi company.
Agents were appointed aznongHhe farmers
and laboring classes. The attractive
feature of bis plan was to issue
a conjoint policy covering both
man ana wife, and in "some instances the en
tire family. Business came pouring in at
an enormous rate; notes or cash being taken
for premiums from the policy holders or
anything that could be squeezed from their
customers. When a note was taken it was
sold at whatever figure the bank was willing
to pay for it.
"The company Turner represented had no
authority to do business in this State, nor
did Turner or any of his agents have a cer
tificate of authority issued by my office.
Anyway, their work has been a fraudulent
scheme from its inception. The amount of
business done is enormous, and policies
written will reach $1,000,000. The matter
has been placed in the hands of the County
Attorney of Davison county, who will In
stitute proceedings in the United States
Courts for collection of fines against tbe
company, which are $1,000 for each policy
written.
"Turner is an old offender1 in this line of
business. He came to Dakota for the dis
tinct pnrpose of swindling all he could in
the insurance line. All his agents, of whom
there are at least 50, are guilty, and I shall
be lenient with them, for they are innocent
parties to the swindle."

Piebbe, S. D., December 30. The fever
ish excitement over the attempt of boomers
to found a town site on the reservation
across tbe river, from this point continues
unabated. The boomers have been acting
mysteriously, and it has been learned that
they are still making preparations to exe
cute their scheme. They held a se
cret meeting to-night in an old
building about half a mile
from here, and it is learned that they con
templated moving over the river to-night or
to-morrow night. It has also developed
that the portion of the land which they in
tend squatting on is not a portion of the
reservation, but a part of the famous Mile
Square, but which has heretofore been occu
pied by half-breeds and squaw men as part
of tbe reservation. In this case there Is
certainly some probability of their success.
They have a thorough organization, and
are led by very shrewd men, who will not
stop at anvthing to carrv their point. The
half-breeds are reinforcing themselves, and
will undoubtedly fight a desperate battle be
fore they will yield. J. W, Shinu, a former
member ot the Ohio Legislature, is the lead
er of the boomers, and he has undoubtedly
laid his plans well. Dr. Brown, of this city,
and a party named "Jesse James," are his
seconds. They have a large installment of
arms, thus showing that they are desperate.
Business has been almost entirely ne
glected here to-day, everybody being busy,
excitedly discussing the situation. Tbe
boomers are constantly making converts for
their cause and with reinforcements will
probably be able to take possession.
APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC.
The Striking Grlpmnn Ailc the Moral Sup
port of the Cltxr
At the meeting of the Street Car Em
ployes' Assembly, to which other men now
on strike were admitted, held in K. of L.
Hall on Fifth avenue last night, the follow
ing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The Pittsburg Traction Com
pany has seen fit to organize a powerful cor
poration, and, in order to make it a
success, has called into its service the
Flnkerton thugs and scabs, who have been a
stink in the nostrils of tbe honest public, not
only here, but in Chicago, New York and
Philadelphia.
Tbey lay forth tbe claim rthat their former
employers should not have the rights of Ameri
can citizens, while they are slaves to the com
pany. Therefore, bo it
Resolved, That we, the former employes of
the Pittsburg Traction Company, believing we
have done nothing wrong as American
citizens in connecting ourselves with what
ever organization we deem best, and
having been discharged for simply joining an
organization for our own urotection, appeal to
all labor organizations and the public nn gen
eral for support.
We ask that you. will not patronize the road
while it is rnn by such unprincipled scabs as
are employed in our places.
We can assure the public in general that we
have no desire to commit any depreda
tions that would make us liable to the strong
arm of tbe law, believing that tbe company
would be only too glad should such steps be
taken. We are out on principle and are deter
mined to carry this" to an honorable and honest
termination.
We tried all honest means to bring about an
amicable settlement, but without avail, as
our committee did not bave an op
portunity to effect a settlement,
as tbe President, Mr. Elkins. refused point
blank to treat with any committee save that of
scabs and Pinkerton thugs.
THE ERIE STRIKE SETTLED.
A Satisfactory Agreement Reached on the
Term of the Men.
iftrECIAI. TILZQKAII TO TUB DISIMTCII.l
New Tosk, December 30. A sub-committee
of about a dozen engineers and other
trainmen was sent over this morning to
see General Manager E. B. Thomas,
by the standing grievance commit
tee of the entire Erie system
which bas been in session in Jersey City
since Saturday. The instrnctions from the
general committee had been very explicit.
The sub-committee demanded that the
book of rules, with its 296 examin
ation questions, be abolished, and that tbe
four suspended engineers be reinstated,
with full pay during their idleness. It was
also decided to get a written agreement from
the Company, signed by the officers.
After the conference, Manager Thomas
said :
The matter bas been settled satisfactorily to
both tbe men and the management. We have
reinstated the four engineers and withdrawn the
written examination. Tbe men expressed a
willingness to take an oral exam
ination, and it will not differ mnch,
probably, from wbat was contained
In tbe seemingly objectionable book of ques
tions. Tbe whole trouble arnse from a mis
understanding as to what the company re
quested, and as soon as the men found that
out, tbe difficulty w3 soon adjusted.

A TH0NDEREE HEAVILY INVOLVED
And Evidence That the Great Newspaper is
Interested in the Issue.
GLADSTONE MEETINGS EYEE1WHERE,
Bat Slill There are Tories Who Bitterly Assail the
Statesman.
Evidence' is accumulating that tbe O'Rhea
divorce suit was brought in the interests ot
tbe London TtmeS. Thfc is denied, how
ever, by the Cjptain. More celebrations
were 'held in Gladstone's honor. A Tory
paper makes & scurrilous attack upon the
aged statesman.
London, December 30. Apropos 'of lie
allegation of Mr. Parnell and his friends
that the action brought against the Home
Eule leader by Captain O'Sbeawas insti
gated by Mr. Houston, in rhe Interest of tbe
Times, in the expectation that it would
have the effect to weaken Mr. P.trnell's suit
for libel against the Times and dtaw pnblic J
attention away irom ine commission s re
port on the forged letters, it is stated on
authority that the hearing of O'Shea's
case is fixed for a time concurrent with the
examination of Parnell's suit against the
Times. The coincidence may be accidental,
but nobody) can be found who believes that
it is, and as to the issue of the O'Shea ac
tion, opinion is general that the Captain
will emerge from the contest the most dis
creditable and despicable man in all Eng
land, An attempt was made to-day to interview
Captain O'Shea regarding the statements
made by Mr. Parnell in connection with the
divorce suit Captain O'Shea refused to dis
cuss the matter, but said he advised Mr.
Parnell to assume the usual position of co
respondent and to allow himself to
be served with a citation. Captain
O'Shea subsequently stated that
there was not the slightest
truth in Jlr. Parnell's assertion that the
suit bad 'been instigated by the Times.
Neither the'.Ttmes nor Mr. Houston, he said,
knew anything of tbe action before it be
came known to the public. In moof of this
assertion he produced a letter from the
editor of the Times, dated last evening, ask
ing him to confirm or correct the report
that he had filed a petition for a divorce.

Only a Rnbld Tory OrgncTIas Unkind Word
for tbe Ex-Premier.
LONDON, December 30. Hundreds of
meetings and banquets are being held here
and elsewhere to-night in honor of the 80th
birtbdayof Mr. Gladstone, and all of the
newspapers pay their respects to him in
notices more or less complimentary in pro
portion to their leaning toward Liberalism,
or the closeness of their affiliations with the
party of the other extreme. Only one
paper,. however, has bad the bad taste, not
to say downright brutality, to seize the op
portunity afforded by the occasion to openly
attack the ex-Premier.
This exhibition of virulent party spite is
made by the St. James Gazette, which de
clares that he is only supported by
"Jacobins, Guttler Bapoos and Irish dis
loyalty." To this scurrilous outburst, how
ever, nobody has paid the slightest attention
and donbtless the author is now heartily
ashamed of the work.

Dublin, December 30. The Earl of Zet

Sorne Interesting; Statistics of Snlcide.
There is no place in tbe world so sadden
ing, weird, and lonely as tbe morgue with
its row of silent figures who have taken
their lives in their own hands, and blindly
burled themselves into the great eternity
of silence and death. There are bnt few
reposing there upon whose faces remain
the traces of the suffering of body or agony
of mind that drove them to their last aw
ful deed. Death is a great calmer of faces,
a gentle) remover of tbe lines of care.
Statistics from sixof the largest morgues
in the world show that in nine out of every
ten suicides the fatal act is committed
when the mind and brain are overstrung,
congested, and excited. Taken in time, a
few doses of Rogers' Royal Nervine would
have, calmed the excitement, eased tbe
care and worry, and in quiet, refreshing
sleep have carried away tins mad impulse.
Your turn may be next. Spend a dollar,
