Jadae Boaaott Beam tho Evidence la the
Bl.okssa Harder Case.
On Saturday laat Judge Bennett held
a hearing In tho case of Anthony
Zemetia, the hearing- being duo to tho
efforts of his attorneys to procure his
release on ball. Zemetis Is the man
who Is charged with having murdered
Anthony Ylealey, and concealed his
body under a fall of coal In the tilack
man mine.
At tho hearing Dr. Wernergala. the
well-known Polish physician, was the
first witness. The doctor testified that
when he examined the body there
were three bullet holes In It. and that
the skin was burned. The bullet
wounds were In the right side. In the
breast and the wound that killed was
In tho head right over the right ear.
J. L. Lenahan. attorney for the de
fendant, asked whether witness ex
amined the body of tho dead man and
could tell If the shots had been fired
Into the body after he was dead. Tho
doctor said he could not tell.
Martin Carney was next called and
testified to tho effect that he knew both
Ylealey. the murdered man, and Ze
metis. the man charged with the mur
der. The last time h saw Yiesley was
about I.4S o'clock, of the afternoon he
ws found dead. Yleeley was making
a charge of rowder then. Carney's
attention was then directed to Ze
metis. tho prisoner, and he swore ho
had never seen him before, and that
he was not working In the Blackman
mine. The witness said there were
only four men working In the gangway
of the mine, and the prisoner was not
one of them.
Charles Rice was next called to the
stand, and said ho lived on Stanton
street, and was acquainted with Ze
metis. and the wife of the dead man.
On Sunday, June M. Yiesley was
burled, and on that he had heard that
Mrs. Yelsley came to Zemetis and said
to him: "Anthony you look very bad;
do not look so down-hearted, or peo
ple will suspect," to which Zemetis'
replied: "I am all right." The wit
ness was near them and saw then
plainly, so that there was no doubt
In his mind as to their Identity.
This closed the evidence and at the
request of tho attorneys Judge Pen
nett continued the case for another
week. Zemetis, In the meantime, was
remanded to Jail without ball.
A LOST GIRL.
ElUabsth Perkins Has Boo Missing Since
Last Thursday.
On Saturday last the police ot this
city received notice of the disappear
ance of Elisabeth Perkins, an ls-year-old
gtrl, who has not been seen since
Thursday last. The Imformatlon was
made by her brother, 8. P. Perkins, a
man about 30 years of age, who says
he Is from North Carolina. The pair
have been traveling about the country
for some time selling various little ar
ticles, and on Thursday last they
camped near Suburban Park, and
started out in different directions to
sell their goods. A heavy storm came
up, and Perkins, who had-returned to
camp, did not worry about his sister's
non-appearance until late that night.
He made a search for her, but was un
successful. The last place to which he could traco
her was Doner's, on North Canal
street, near Lee's planing mill. Perkins
has been there two or three times and
finds from Mr. Dotter that the girl
came there Thursday afternoon, tried
to sell some things but failed. She sat
down during the storm and talked
awhile. Afterward, Mr. Dotter says,
she went out, but he did not notice in
what direction.
He has kept up the search, but with
out finding any trace of her and he has
now asked the police to aid him. He
says the girl had 165 with her when
he disappeared and he fears she has
either been foully dealt with or that
she has been kidnapped or enticed
away for Immoral purposes.

This Coaaty.Exe.pt Agriculture,
Which Employs So
Many People.
The railways of the United States
give employment directly to IMu.OUO men
and Indirectly, In the manufacture of
Iron, steel, engines, cars, etc, to Suu.OUO
more, making a grand total of 1.400,000.
This dues not Include those engaged in
the construction of new lines, Assum
ing that eaoh man represents upon the
average a family of live persons, the
railways of the United States support
7,uuo,ooo people or nearly eleven per
cent, of the entire poulatlnn.
There is no other department of hu
man Industry In this country, other
than agriculture, which gives employ
ment to so vast an army of men at re
munerative wages. This Is one of
many reasons why the general prosper
ity of the country Is so dependent upon
the prosperity of Its railways.
The total disbursements of the na
tional government less for pensions and
payments to the sinking fund, but In
cluding Interest for the fiscal years
im. 18IM-Bl-02-it was $l,106,49S,43s, while
the disbursements by the railways of
the nation for operating expenses and
Interest for the single year ending
June SO. 1893. was 1.104,756.63 or for
the cost of operation alone $8.VJ,027.1tlI.
The magnitude of the disbursement ot
American railways Is another reason
Why the prosperity of the country Is so
largely dependent upon their prosperity-
The farmers and planters of this
country will not receive this year upon
the average more than 60 cents per
bushel for wheat, 40 cents per bushel
for corn, 30 cents per gushel for. oats,
and 6 cents per pound for cotton, or
$20 per bale, or for the entire crop of
these four great agricultural staples
as follows:
Ltno.ooo.ono bushels of corn at 40c JT'M.ono.noo
MO.OUO.UM bushelaof wheat uUiOO t.O.(KJO,i!0
TOO.OUO.MW bushels of outs at SOe. 210,000, oik)
,IXH),0U0 bales or cotton at $'.'0 lk0,0UO,UU0
A total value of $1,200,000,000
or only $96,000,000 more than was ac
tually disbursed by the railways of the
country for operating expenses and In
terest in U93. But for the railways the
returns to farmers for these four crops
would certainly not exceed $1,000,000,000.
We all well know how niuch the pros
perity of all classes is dependent upon
the success of the agriculturists. These
figure clearly prove that the railway
Industry ranks next In Importance to
that of agriculture In promoting the
prosperity ot all classes, and that the
success of agriculture! dependent upon
efliulent railway service.
It Is charged by those who promote
and demand legislation unfriendly to
railways that railway capital Is largely
Actltious, or, In other 'words, ilarge'iy
watered, and that by paying dividends
upon a nexcesslve capitalization rail
way managers have done gross Injus
tice to the public. What are the facts?
The total dividends paid for the fiscal
year 1803 to tho shareholders of 173.000
ml lee of railway was $!,337.fil, or 1 86
100 per cent, of the capital stock.
One mill per ton per mile upon the
freight carried that year amounts to
$90,652,687, or only $4,784,994 less than
the total paid for dividends upon stock.
The total earnings from all traffic for
that year was greater than for any pre
ceding year in our history. The aver-
o. in p,rthflprH rlllr'"'
the past ten yenrs has never exceeded
24 per cent. If the profit from the pas
senger traffic Is considered It will be
found that the shareholders did not
receive as dividends to exceed one-half
mile per ton per mile upon the mer
chandise transported. If tho capital
stock of American railways Is one-hnlf
water the shareholders received 8.73
per cent, upon the actual capital In
vested; If 66 $-3 per cent, is water even
then they only received 6.68 per cent,
upon the cash Invested. This Is very
far from being excessive or unjust to
the public. The estimated true value of
all property In the United States In
creased from $43,642,000,000 In 1880 to
$tiS,037,091,l7 in 1890, a gain of J22,S9S.
091,197, or 61'i iper cent. A very large
percentage of the vast Increase In
wealth Is due to the service performed
by railways. The railway Interest has
not shared In the Increnso In wealth
which It created.
In our trans-Mlsnlsnlppt States tho
shareholders of 72.000 miles of ralloy
with earnings of $309,859,749 received as
dividends upon the stock In the fiscal
year 1893, seven-tenths of 1 per cent.
In the states of Missouri, Arkansas,
Texas, 'Kansas, Colorado and New
Mexico they only received 8-10 of 1 per
cent. If the capital stocks of all the
railways In our trans-MlsslsslppI States
Is 90 per cent, water the shareholders
received less than S per cent upon tho
actual capital Invsled.
Admitting, for argument's sake, that
the charge made by those who antag
onist railways as to excessive capital
ization Is true there Is no evidence that
the shareholders upon the average have
received even a fair and Just return for
the actual capital admitted by their
opponents to have been Invested.
We ihave shown: First, that th rail
ways of the country employ more labor
than any otrler branch of Industry, with
the exception of agriculture.
Secondly, that the expenditure of the
national government fur the fiscal
years 1889, 1890-01-92-93, less for pensions
and payments Into the sinking fund,
was only $2,000,000 more than was dls
ib uned by the railway corporations of
the country for the operating expenses
and Interest for t'lie single fiscal year
1893.
Thirdly, that dividends to share
holders for that year upon the Average
was only 1.86 per cent. and that It
never exceeded 2A," per cent, during the
past ten years.
'Fourthly, that one mill per ton per
mile upon thetnerchandla transported
would yield within $4,784,994 of the total
sum paid to shareholders as dividends
In 1893.
Fifthly, that rail ways have not shared
In the vast Increase In wealth from 1880
to 1890, which they very largely created
by the service they rendered to the
public. We believe we have given valid
reasons why they should not be har
rassed and crippled by unfriendly legis
lation ouch as the Interstate Commerce
act That they should not bo treated
as robbers of the public, but as pro
moters of the public welfare. ,
Mr. O. H. Lewis. In his work entitled
"The National Consolidation of the
(Railways of the United States,'' ad
mits that "In the end and In a Urge
way It Is as olearly for the Interest of
the business man that the railroad
should earn a fair compensation as It
Is for the stockholder."
'When the American pubrlo realize
the truth of this statement the develop
ment of our railway systems will not be
delayed bj unfriendly legislation.
