EXACT RIGIITS OF THE GOTERMIEXT
SPECIAL TELEOEAM TO TllE DISPATCH.!
- "Washington, May 17. The Attorney
General has just rendered an opinion, in
response to the request of the Secretary of
"War, which is destined to he far-reaching
in its effects upon the commercial and mari
time interests of the country and which lias
created something of a sensation in the "War
Department, especially in the United States
Engineer Corps, which, under the Secretary,
will liave the carrying out of the new policy
required by the decision of the Attorney
General.
From the foundation of the Government
down to the present time, it has always
been an open question how far the authority
of the United States Government extended
in the matter of obstructions to navigation
interests by the bridging or otherwise
abridging the channels of inland rivers or
harbors within the jurisdiction of munici
palities like Chicago, Milwaukee, Buffalo,
Cleveland and other like maritime ports on
the great lakes, and in cases of many of the
seaport cities such as Jfew York and Bos
ton. Up to this time the Engineer Corns
has encouraged the policy of 'Qiands off" in
all matters pertaining to'any control what
ever by the General Government of inland
waterways like the Chicago river, and the
city of Chicago has built bridges when and
where it pleased at different points on the
river without in any way considering the
Government a party in interest.
Chicago Brought to Time.
2Tow, however, that city will, it seems, be
Tequired to build its bridges in such a way
as not to unreasonably or unnecessarily ob
struct the free passage of not only its local
commerce, but the foreign commerce as
welL Last year the city began the con-
Ftruction of a low drawbridge across the
south branch of the Chicago river at Canal
street, and had put in the pier and super
structure thereof when the vessel and com
mercial interests directly affected made
strong protests to the city authorities
against the construction of the bridge upon
the plans as made by the City Engineer.
Those protests were made by the leading
steamship lines running between Buffalo,
Cleveland and other ports in the great lakes
and Chicago and by the immense elevator,
coal and lumber interests located above the
Canal street bridge. The city paid little
attention to these protests, but proceeded
with the construction on the original plans,
which plans, the vessel men claimed, made
the bridge a serious and unnecessary ob
struction to the very large commerce pass
ing the point
An Appeal to Washington.
They then, in January last, appealed to
the Secretay of "War, through their "Wash
ington counsel, ex-Senator Conger, who
argued before the Secretary that under the
provisions of the river and harbor act of
September, 1890, it was the duty of the Sec
retary, if any bridge or other structure was
found upon examination by him to be a seri
ous or an unreasonable obstruction to navi
gation interests, to cause the same to be
changed in plan or entirely removed and re
built upon plans which would give the least
possible danger and trouble to vessels pass
ing through the draws or under such bridge.
The vessel men scored a victory by the
report of Captain Marshall, United States
engineer in charge at Chicago, who, under
instructions from the War Department, in
vestieatcd the w hole matter on the ground,
hearing both interests in fulL That officer
reported that the bridge, as far as con
structed, was an unreasonable and unneces
sary obstruction to the large commercial in
terests, citing the fact in his report to the
Secretary that oer 7,000 vessels. passed this
point in the vear 1890, and that the largest
elevator, coal and lumber interests in the
city were directly affected by the delays and
dangers to transportation caused by the
narrowness of the channel provided for in
the draws of the bridge.
The Quebtlon of Supervision.
Captain Marshall, in his report, raised the
question of the results which would neces
sarily follow, in his opinion, if the Govern
ment assumed the right of supervising the
construction of bridges built bv the city of
Chicago, claiming tliat it would necessarily
follow that the Government must also con
trol the matter of dock lines, sewers or other
possible obstructions to the navigability of
such channelsj and must also assume the
task of deepening, widening and improving
generally such channels to meet the neces
sities of commerce, things now assumed
who.ly bv the municipality.
ircneral Casey, Chief of Engineers, warm
ly indorsed these propositions, he having
for years been a very earnest opponent of
the situation which now seems must follow
from the decision of the Attorney General.
General Grant, the Assistant Secretary of
"War, when the matter uas submitted to
him, at once fully appreciated the grave im
portance of the ruling of the department
upon the matter and sought the Attorney
General's opinion, that the whole question
might be looked into exhaustively from the
law as well as the administrative stand
point. The Attorney GcnerrJ holds that under
the law it is the duty of the Secretary to
exercise a general supervision of the inland
waterways or harbors upon which travels
'the commerce of the country, where the
tame arc clearly uaigable highways, to the
extent that no unreasonable or unnecessary
obstructions shall be placed thereon by any
local municipal authority, but that such
supervision need not necessarily clash with
the usual police or harbor powers of such
municipal authorities over the channels or
waterways within the control of cities, or
ton ns.
The policy of Congress during later years
has been ono of growing tendency to extend
the power of the General Government over
harbors and rivers, tributary to the high
nays of commerce, and the moving of Chi
cago and other vessel interests has resulted
in a formulation lor the first time of the
exact rights and authority of the Govern
ment in such cases, where heretofore it has
been an open and much fought over ques
tion. It is looked upon by the leading men in
terested in maritime commercial matters as
a great virtory for the vessel men of the
whole country. It will undoubtedly open
up a very large and new field of vexatious
work for the Secretary of "War and the
Engineer Corps, and for that reason the
Attorney General's decision is not much
rclished'by the AVar Department
ABMOB-PIEECING PEOJECTILES.
The Contract for Them Goes to the Mid
rale Steel Company.
tFKOM A STAFF COREESrOXDECT.
"Washington, May 17. The AVar De
partment hift awarded to the Midvale Steel
Company, of Philadelphia, the contract for
the first lot of armor-piercing projectiles for
the new breech-loading coast-defense guns,
on their bid of last Monday, offering Jo sup
ply 100 eight-inch, 205 10-inch and 50 12-
inch projectiles for the 5100,000 allotcd for
that purpose.' The Carpenter Steel Works,
of "Reading, offered to furnish a few more
projectiles of each calibre, but taking into
consideration the fact that the latter's corn
.pany would not allow any inspection of the
projectiles while in course of manufacture,
the department determined that the Mid
vale bid was themost advantageous.
The bid of the Midvale Company states
tliat the projectiles will be manufactured by
the Holtzer process, the right to use which
in the United States has been recently ac
quired by this company. The Holtrer pro
jectiles are recognized" by ordnance experts
throughout the world as the best made, and
ever since the building of liigh-power guns
was commenced in the United States efforts
have been made by steel makers and by the
ordnance officers of the AVar and Navy De
partments to secure the right to make them.
A DEFICIENCY FEARED
Br SECRETARY FOSTER ON ACCOUNT
OF PENSION PAYMENTS.
Tho Secretary Charged "With Withholding
the Payment of Pension Certificates by
Reason of Tills Gen. Raum Bearing tho
Brunt of 'Attorneys' Clamor.
SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUX DISrATCH.l
"Washington, May 17. The AVashing
ton Gazette tolay charges that the payment
of pension certificates in case's that have
been completed is being withheld at the
order of Secretary Foster, who fears that
there will be a large deficiency in the Treas
ury at the end of the fiscal year. The
Gaxtte says the pension attorneys, who have
hundreds of cases on file, are writing to
ths Pension Office every day asking
why certificates for the completed cases
are not issned, and in most cases the letters
of the attorneys remain unanswered. It'
appears that Commissioner Raum is acting
under instructions from Secretary Foster, to
ward off a large deficiency, which seems in
evitable, instead of issuing certificates for
cases in the completed files, for the Pension
Office is pushing with all the force at its
command cases filed under the disability act
of June, 1890.
Last month 30,000 claims, under the act
of June, 1890, were issued, and compara
tively few cases on the completed file's were
touched. The Commissioner understands
the position in which he is placed, and
hence he is willing to let the completed
files rest, take all the criticisms of the at
torneys, and listen patiently to theales of
woe the claimants pour into his ear,if he can
only avert the deficiency. There is a ma
terial difference in the amount received by
the pensioner whose claim is filed under the
act of June, 1890, and the claim in the com
pleted file. The average difference is be
tween S100 and 5300.
"If the Commissioner would issue certifi
cates for the completed cases," said a prom
inent attorney, "it is doubtful if there
world be anything like a surplus left in the
Treasury after the pensions for June and
Juh-have been satisfied. Of course, it is
possible that the pension appropriation may
be strung out until the beginning of the
fiscal year, when the appropriations made
by the last Congress become available, but
in order to do so the Commissioner must
greatly curtail the issuance of pensions."

a Profitable Arrangement.
SrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Baltimore, May 17. The AVest Vir
ginia Central has completed an arrangement
with the B. & O. and Pennsylvania roads
by which important connections are ob
tained. The AVest Virginia, which is de
veloping coal fields, has been look
ing for a "Western outlet. They
tried to buy the AVestern Maryland,
but could not secure the property.
By the agreement now made they obtain a
through line to Pittsburg, and thence secure
connection to the lakes. Besides, the AVest
Virginia is building a line from the present
AVestern terminus at Elkins to Benngf on,
a distance of 18 miles, where it will meet
the Grafton and Greenbrier narrow gauge
road, which is controlled by the Baltimore
and Ohio-, and is, by agreement, to be made
of standard gauge.
At Grafton the main stem of the Balti
more and Ohio goes to Fairmount and a
branch line to Morgantown. From there
the Baltimore and Ohio agrees to build a
line to Uniontown, in Pennsylvania, and
this point reached connection is m'ade
through to Pittsburg by both the Pennsyl
vania and Baltimore and Ohio roads. This
will complete the northern connection of
the AVest Virginia Central. To the south
from Elkins, the present western terminus
of the Arest Alrginia Central, the road is to
be extended in the direction of Lynchburg,
the purpose being to connect with the AVann
Spring branch of the Chesapeake and Ohio,
and thus secure the same advantages South
that are now enjoyed North.

To See That the Present Executite of Ohio

SFEC1AL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn.J
Columbus, May 17- The Sunday World,
which is recognized as the personal organ of
Governor Campbell, and which is edited
and published by one of his appointee;, to
day prints the following, which is re
garded as official and authorized by the Gov
ernor on the forthcoming Gubernatorial
nomination and hjs feelings toward Hon.
L. T. Neal, his leading and only opponent
in the race:
It is no longer a secret that Larry T. Neal
is a candidate against Governor James E.
Campbell.
The friends of the Governor should know
this now at the very beginning, so that in
subsequent conduct they will make no mis
take in dealing with Mr. Neal.
The prominence Mr. Neal now enjoys is
a new experience to him, and it seems to
have turned his head completely. Two
years ago, outside his own and the adjacent
counties, he was comparatively unknown to
the Democracy of Ohio. In the early days
of the campaign of 1889, when the eyes of
the Ohio Democracy were upon Congress
man CSnrpbell as the most available candi
date for Governor, Mr. Neal had never even
been dreamed of as a candidate.
Spoiled a Unanimous Nomination.
Mr. Campbell v could have been unani
mously nominated in May or June or July.
He sent word to his friends that he wanted
the Ohio Democrats to wait and think well
of what they were doing. He wanted
them to ascertain first if there was
not a better man or more available
man in the ranks of the party than
hintself. Then it was that Allan AV. Thur
man and others, believing Mr. Campbell
had not advanced far enough across the
Democratic tariff map, unfurled an extreme
tariff reform banner, and, placing it in the
hands of Lawrence T. Neal, marshaled
about'him the extremists of the Democratic
tariff reformers. That gave the Chillicothe
man the first prominence he had in Ohio.
At the convention he added more to this
prominence by receiving something over 100
fewer votes for Governor than his success
ful competitor did. Two years passed away
and Mr. Neal has had no further opportuni
ties to increase the prominence left him as
a heritage in the memorable campaign,
which "began so gloriously at Dayton in
August and ended so triumphantly all over
the State in JTovember.
Only a Factional Opposition.
Now a second opportunity has arisen for
Mr. Neal to increase the stature of expecta
tion of his political hopes, in the factional
opposition to Governor Campbell, beoause
he did his duty fearlessly and because he
declined to permit his administration to be
scandalized with even a taint of official cor
ruption. This element, which regards public office
as private plunder for the greed and rapac
ity of party spoilsmen, are lifting their ban
ner over Mr. Neal and marshaling all the
discontent, all the greed, all the disappoint
ment under and around it, Mr. leal is
once more becoming prominent, and his val
uable time is once more wasted in striking
at the Gubernatorial bee that persists in
worrying him by dayand making his dreams
miserable by night.
For a while many, well meaning, able,
patriotic and wise Democrats of Ohio
thought it would be a brilliant stroke to
have the convention that nominated the
Governor indorse Mr. Neal for the Seflator
ship. That would place a prize before
each, to win which both sides must pull
together and united achieve a double vic
tory. The friends of 'Governor- Campbell
for a long time looked on this proposition
with favorable eyes and listened to its pos
sibilities with "willing ears. Then, when all
had become regarded as settled, Mr. Neal
comes forward once more and announces
that he is still in the race for the Governor
ship. aiore Than Party Success.
In other words, he declares that with him
personal aggrandizement is a greater motor
than party success; that there ismorc glory
in attaining individual ambition than in
uniting a party and waging successful war
fare on the aggressions of monopoly, on the
necessities of the people; that the triumph
of Democracy is nothing be the fruits of vic
tory to another than Lawrence T. NeaL
"Be it so! Be it so!"
If the judgment of Mr. Neal has been
warped by the straggling voices of disap
pointment that echo here and there from
the State, and his courage has reached that
point where he thinks to measure swords
with Governor Campbell, let him proclaim
himself without delay and announce
his candidacy without any further
mystery. He will find when too
late that the honest Democracy
of Ohio will repudiate a man, who, in ex
change for political glory, became the in
strument of" John R. McLean, to defeat a
man who had balked all his schemes to un
load all his pensioners on the city of Cin
cinnati through his chosen friend, Louis
Reemelin. He will find that the Demo
crats of Ohio propose to stand by an honest,
fearless, tried and true executive, and that
they will spurn a man, who to glorify him
self, would tear out the vitals of his own
party.
A "Warning as to the Future, f
AVhen Lawience T. Neal finds himself
fully entered in the race he must remember
that he will never see the United States
Senate, even though the Legislature be
Democratic. If it be fair for him to an
tagonize Governor Campbell now he
can expect as good as he- sends
when that body meets to choose a
Senator. AVith what measure he meted
outto others will be meted out to him. In
politics as in nature it is the survival of the
fittest, and Mr. Neal must make" himself
thoroughly familiar with tliat. The friends
of Governor Campbell throughout the State
do not intend to sit idly by and see the good
old Democratic ship scuttled by the pirati
cal crew of John R. McLean, captained by
the Chillicothcan.
Mr. Neal will find an iron hand iclutchinc.
his throat whenever he aspires to the seat of u
onerman; nc will una strong arms Dinaing
him, hand and foot, and casting hijn" afloat
from the ship he would rule or ruin. From
this time on Mr. Neal will be taken for
what he is, and not for what he pretends to
he. It is better for Democracy to go down
to temporary defeat if by so doing the
seditious can be expelled.. Mr. Neal may
as well know now as later along that he can
neither be nominated for Governor nor can
he be elected Senator in any event. If he
thinks so, let him try. .The World notifies
him now, in the interest of John R. Mc
Lean's money, that both are absolute im
possibilities. A MOTHER'S FOOLISH ACT.

Louisville, May 17. The delegates to
the Scotch-Irish Congress tq-night conducted
an -old fashioned covenanters' meeting at
the Auditorium, the largest hall in the city.
An audience of 3,000 was present and many
were turned away. The lining out of the
hymn and the careful explana

main characteristic features. The Rev. C.
H. Hemphill, of the AVarren Memorial
Church here, presided, and the Rev. J. L.
McNair, of Louisville, led the singing.
There was no instrumental music but all
joined with a hearty good will that brought
hack the earnestness of the old Scotch Pres

to the tune "Martyrdom."
The text was explained at great length by
the Rev. J. S. Mcintosh, of Philadelphia.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Nevin Avood

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TOE P1SPATCH.
Philadelphia, May 17. After an ab
sence of four weeks, Postmaster General
AVanamaker was heartily welcomed back to
his old place as Superintendent of
the Sunday School at Bethany Pres
byterian Church this afternoon. AVhen
he entered the schoolroom the
assembled scholars greeted him with exclam
ations, which expressed no little pleasure
at his return. On the platform had been
placed a large pillow of pink and white
roses, across which had been traced in blue
immortelles the words "AVelcome Home."
After a short review of, the lesson of the
day, Mr. AVanamaker gave an interesting
history of his recent tour.
He said that one of the most gratifying
of the many pleasant experiences he had
passed through was the fact that
not a day had passed during the
entire journey without his having
met someone who had been connected
with Bethany Sunday School. At a small
town in Arizona, where the Presidental
train had halted for but a few minutes,
among the first to greet him personally were
two Indian girls, Bessie Purson and Mary
Sedden,"who, while being educated in this
city, had been regular attendants at the
Sabbath school.

CSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
New York, May 17. The Anti-Kidnap-ing
Union's Central Committee passed on
Saturday night a vote strongly condemning
the reported seizure of a young woman on
Friday night at Thirty-sixth street and
Broadway, and her abduction in a close car
riage by four men, on the ground that she
had escaped from a lunatic asylum. On the
pridciple that no one has lawful authority to
carry off any person in this way unless on a
written order from a Judge, the committee
voted to investigate the case. The commit
tee will also look into the incarceration of
the son of General Franz Sigel, Rudolph F.
SigeL
Resolutions were adopted that the state
ments of the National Association of In
sane Asylum Superintendents, just pub
lished, that no sane person has ever been
unlawfully confined in a lunatic asylum, is
flatly contrary to the facts in a multitude
of recorded cases adjudicated by the courts,
among which is the case of Mrs. Harriet E.
Beach, pf New York City, and that the im
prisonment of so illustrious a lady as Anna
E. Dickinson under the designation of an
insane pauper, without medical examination
or any lawful authority whatever, was an
unspeakable outrage and national disgrace.
NEW HAVEN'S LAST SLAVE.
She Is the Oldest Person in the City and
Was Sold in 1835.
SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn
New Haven, May 17. Aunt Louise
Tritton, the oldest person in New Haven, is
dying. She was the last slave sold in New
Haven. She was sold at auction on the
green where the founders erected the first
church in 1638. She received the name of
Tritton by having been the property of
General Tritton, of the British Army. Mrs.
Tritton was financially stranded in
New Haven, and to raise money enough
to get back to Nova Scotia she
parted with Aunt Louise and the
latter's mother, for a loan from JohnNicoll.
The two slaves remained at the Nicoll
homestead until 1825, believing all this
time that they were free. One day in that
year High Sheriff Elihu Monson came
around and conducted Aunt Louise to the
auction block on the green, and she was bid
off by Anthony Comstock for ?600.
, It was the custom to parade the slaves
through the streets prior to the sale-, and the
route was from Broadway to Chapel, to
State, to Elm, thence to the green. Three
drum taps announced that the slaves were
to be sold. Years afterward, by money
earned doing extra work, Aunt Louise was
able to purchase her freedom.

all that time when life on Staten Island is
least attractive. It was commented on as
strange' that he should leave the island just
when life there was becoming enjoyable
and, by a strange coincidence, just after
Mary Tobin disappeared.
After the murder of N. P. Tobin, of
Franklin, Pa,, many people were positive
that the two murders were connected, that
both crimes had been planned by one brain,
if not executed by one pair of hands and,
under these circumstances, Tim Mclnnerny
became a very interesting man to find.
From Mrs. Shannon, of No. 123 East
Eighty-eighth street, New York, it was
learned that, Tim had been in Chicago for
two years and had never written back to
Mrs. Shainon, who is his aunt.
A Long Chase After Tim.
Inquiry among the neighbors revealed
the fact that from the 1st of May, 1889, till
the time when he was called as a witness at
the inquest on Mary Tobin's body, Tim Mc
lnnerny boarded with his aunj, Mrs. Shan
non, and did no work, and that immediately
after Dr. Bryan had produoed him to ac
count for the doctor's time on April 15, Tim
leftiNew York City for Chicago, taking with
him his eldest brother, Patrick. Both were
poot young men and both left situations
without any apparent reason. .
Under the circumstances it seemed likely
that' if Tim had been used in the first mur
der j he would be used in the second, pro
vided that N. P. Tobin was murdered be
cause of his determination to track the
slayer of Mary.
None of Tim's friends in New York knew
his address, and the chase after him was long
and tiresome, but at length thoroughly suc
cessful. Tim was found working as a stable
hand for a Chicago street railway company.
His employers state that he has not been
absent from his work one day during the
East six months, which precludes allpossi
ility of his being concerned in the Frank
lin murder, as was suspected without any
good reason. Pat Mclnnerny has not been
out of Chicago since last fall, and is, there
fore, clear also. Tim was at first declared
to bear a remarkable resemblance to the
red-faced man described by Mrs. Kounze,
but his hair is brown and much too dark to
fit the description.
Mclnnerney Tells His Story.
"I came to this country in July, 1888,"
Tim said to a reporter to-day, "and went to
work at the college at Fordham (St. John's).
I was there about a month. At that time
my brother Pat was working for a man
named Beigle. He is Mrs. Glassford's
father and lives at New Brighton. He saw
me and took me to Dr. Bryan, who engaged
me to work for him at $15 a month. I went
to him August 1, 1888, and left May 1, 1889.
I gave Dr. Bryan over two weeks' notice be
fore I went away. During the time I was
there I never got along with Mrs. Glass
ford, who half-starved me and was very
hard to get on with. The man who worked
there before me left for the same reason.
The work at the doctor's was Very hard. I
had often to get up two or three times of a
night.
"AVhen I left the doctor's I went to my
aunt's, Mrs. Shannon, and lived with her.
I had relatives out here and came out about
the middle of June so did Pat, who was
out of a job. I had some money when I
came from the old country, and I saved
some while I was working for Dr. Bryan.
I never put my money in a bank. I kept
part of it.with me andrgave the rest to Mrs.
shellenberger, the wife of a shoe dealer of
AVest Brighton.
"Pat had some money about ?80, I
think in the Immigrants' Savings Bank,
which he drew before we left. AVe didn't
come out here until we found we couldn't
get anything in New York. I went to an
intelligence office on Clinton place I don't
remember the name and tried to get a job,
but couldn't. I never refused a situation,
because I never" had one offered me. I
didn't pay any hoard while I was at my
aunt's.
Dr. Bryan's Strange Conduct.
On the night of the 15th of April, as well
as I can remember, I went out with Dr.
Bryan at about 9:30 or 10. AVe went to
three or four places in AVest New Brighton,
and then went to AVillow Brook. The fam
ily were all in bed when we got there, arid
some one came down and let the doctor in.
He stayed there about 20 minutes, I think.
I don't remember where we went to in New
Brighton. I never paid much attention
where we were going.
"AVe got home that night about 1 or 1:30.
I never knew Miss Tobin was missing until
I read in the paper that her body was found.
Then I remembered that the doctor seemed
nervous during the last two weeks I was
with him. Two days before I testified at
the inquest Dr. Bryan came to see me at my
aunt's. He said that he was in trouble and
asked me to help him out. I said I would
tell the truth. He told me the names of the
streets we stopped on. He mentioned
Castleton avenue. I thought he knew what
he was telling me and I didn't remember
very well. The next day a detective came
and told me to come to the inquest. I went
and told all I knew. I never thought that
the doctor would kill anybody. He and
Miss Tobin were good friends. He used to
take her out riding with him sometimes. I
have not heard from him since I came out
here.",
Tim is very frank and seems anxious to
tell all he knows. AVhen told that Mrs.
Glassford had accused Dr. Bryan of bribing
him to keep his mouth shut he was not at all
upset, and signified, his entire willingness
to go East and testify again if wanted.
LAWYER MORRISON'S CRIME.
He Takes His Wife's IJfo and Then Com
mits Suicide.
San Antonio, May 17. John D. Mor
rison, a lawyer of ability and well known
all over Southwest Texas, killed his
wife and himself at their residence
in this city to-day, while the
family were attending church services.
There were no witnesses. It is believedvthe
wife was killed accidentally while trying to
thwart her husband's efforts upon himself,
but two empty colls were in the pistol.
Morrison had two wounds, one a grazing
shot. This is believed to have killed his
wife.
Morrison was from Greenville, Ala., and
50 years old. He served with distinction in
the Confederacy, and came to Texas about
15 years ago. He has held responsible of
fices. He was a periodical drinker, and his
successful attempt upon his life, which also
resulted in his wife s death, is believed to
have resulted from depression consequent
upon a debauch. Two daughters survive.
HIS HEAD WAS CUT OFF. -
Michael Brannon Places His Neck Between
a'tocomotlve's Driving Wheels.
Kansas City, May 17. Michael Bran
non, a laborer, committed suicide at Inde
pendence, Mo., yesterday morning, in a
horrible manner. While, a Missouri Pacific
freight train was awaiting orders at the sta
tion, Brannon laid down, between the two
driving wheels of the engine so that his neck
was placed across the track. AVhen the en
gine started his head was severed complete
ly from his body. '

AFTEB PEBPETTJAI. MOTION.
Two Mechanics in the Far Northwest Think
They Have Found It.
Seattle, AVash., May 17. Two me
chanics, John Peterson and Lindblad, after
11 years of labor, claim to have discovered
perpetual motion, and have constructed a
model for a patent. The model, made
of wood, is about three feet in diameter. It
is not a cylinder nor a wheel, yet the princi
ples of both are utilized. A. gravitated ro
tary motion is given to tho thing by means
of sliding arms, which shift as required
upon short spokes, the latter again being se
cured to a revolving shaft. These spokes
are not secured wheel fashion, but three of
them are fixed side by side at different
angles to the perpendicular. Upon these
are fixed short spokes. Long arms slide by
means of small wheels which facilitate mat
ters, preventing friction.
By these arms the heavier weight is con
stantly kept to the momentum side" of the
revolving shaft, thus keeping it in motion.
AVhen they reach a certain angle, 'just past
the vertical point, at 185 or 190 degrees, that
is, when the half five or ten degrees past the
upper vertical pole to a similar number of
degrees beyond the lower one, the sliding
arm is raised by means of a pulley "and
lever. Mechanism is so applied as to lift it
within a guard rail and extend its upper
end to its utmost limit. Extending this arm
upward at an angle of five or ten degrees,
just past the upper vertical pole, is what
gives the gravity momentum to the revolu
tion. The sliding' arm is prevented, from
slipping back by a guard rail of about a
quarter of a circle, and the lever used to
raise it is regulated by a drop-cog 'rod and
pulley at one end anda weight at the other.
Each arm has its own independent guard
rail and lever mechanism, and. at the end of
each arm are attached small wheels to pre
vent friction with the guard- rails. Peler
son and Lindblad are confident that they
have discovered perpetual motion and they
invite investigation.
THE END OF UBS. MAHLEE.
Her Dead Body Washed Ashore by the Tide
on Staten Island.
(SPECIAL TELEQBAM TO THZ DISPATCHJ
New Yobk, May 17. Patrick Payton
was drawing wood on Saturday afternoon
from Barnes' Beach, Staten Island. About
SI o'clock a negro boy, who was assisting
him, called his attention to a body that
the tide was washing in. As it drifted
in Payton found that it was the body of
a woman, almost nude and so badly decom
posed as to be unrecognizable. Under the
arms was securely tied a paving stone.
Payton pulled the body on shore, and, after
covering it up, went to summon the Cor
oner. The body had evidently been in the
water many days. The right hand and a
portion of the forearm were gone, and the
left hand looked as if it had been cut off at
the wrist.
At 5 o'clock to-night two well-dressed
young women visited police headquarters at
Stapleton and asked to view the body. They
were Emma and Maria Mahler. Both iden
tified the body as that of their mother,
Emma Mahler. It is said her life was in
sured for 510,000. Besides owning a dress
making establishment, she had considerable
property. Her daughters thought it possi
ble that she might have committed suicide,
as she was despondent at times.
FOREST ITBES XFAR SPEECHLY.
The Gas District All Ablaze, but There Is No
Danger to the Wells.
CSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISPATCH.
On. City, May 17. Forest fires are again
raging in the Speechly gas district. A
special from Dale states that the whole vi
cinity is ablaze. Forces of men employed
by the gas and oil companies are now fight
ing the fires, but as most of the wells have
been protected by clearing and back firing
no serious damage is feared.
The fire is believed to be due to incendia
rism, and if the guilty parties are caught
they will be severely dealt with.

" "YOU ARE SO YOUNG TO SUFFER!"
This occurrence is frequent. Young girls in public schools where great
rivalry exists, often try to accomplish too niucli, and soon discover that
their delicate organizati-vss are unequal to the mental strain. Then the
ambitious child is taken from school " to rest " in disappointment.
This is wrong. The ambitions of a child should be aided, not blasted.
