Boston, Oct. 27. The Irlendly nlllanco
ni.idii yettertlrty between the Boston &
Maitie and Reading Rysteins will tin'
doubted ly bo very remunerative to both
companies. It rany bo of Interest to
know thnt the nggrecnte mllengo ot the
allied roads will exceed 9,000 miles, nnd
thnt the combined system will carry oj
its pay rolls over luO.UOO employes.
Tho meetinir resulted in tlio reslttiM
tlon of William T. Ilart. n director of
tho Boston & Maine, and the vaunncy
wnR filled by the election of Archibald
A. McLi'od. president of the Philadelphia
& I !eiul 1 iitr limlroad.
President Frntik Jones, 01 tho ASoston
& Muinc, then tendered Ids resignation,
and Mr. McLeod vnn unitnimously elected
to the presidency in his place.
I lie noHition of chnlrmiin of tno tsonru
of Directors wbs created, and Mr. Jones
was chosen to fill It, being charged with
the executive manngement of the Boston
& Mnine system as heretofore.
The Readmit will now distribute Its
euoimous merchandise and coal tralllc
into Now England over tho Boston &
Maine system, und Boston will be made
the centre of the distribution.
For some time minor details ot the now
relationship have been under considera
tiou, but they were not fully formulated
until last Monday, when President Mc
Leod mot representatives of tno Boston
& Mnino railroad in New York and mat-
tors were brought to a sntisfuctory con
elusion.
Mr. McLeod was reluctant to take
upon himself the cares and rosponslbili'
ties other than those now resting upon
him: but, after looking over the situa
tlon careiuny, ami believing that, sucn an
alliance would be greatly to the advant
age of both properties, ho decided to take
hold and to give whatever assistance ho
could to tho practical development, and
he trnts the successful operation of tha
property.
ju.i'i ho arrived at tms determination
he eulisted many of his friends and nsso
ciates of large means, whose financial
xtrength will be of great benefit to tho
property.
It is said that tho JNew York & flew
England road will be used as a connect
ing link In certain directions, and,
further, thnt tho entrance of the Reading
iuto the Boston & Mnino system has no
speculative significance, but is entirely
for tho development of tho property: also,
that the largo expenditures recently made
by the Boston & Maine 111 the acquisition
of the property of tho McLean Insane
Asylum at bomervilleand clsewhero were
unquestionably made with this pending
ulliiuico in view.
Tho ellcct of this alliance will not only
be tin advantage to the anthracite, but to
the bituminous coal tralllc. Apart, how
ever, from the coal interests, the consoli
dation means a most important exten
sion of the Trunk system, which the
Reading management has developed. It
menus a new and great Independent line
for the transportation of wheat, oil,
manufactured goods and general mer
chandise.
The advantage to Philadelphia, not
only as a manufacturing, but a commer
cial centre, will be incalculable. With
its independent roads to the lakes by the
way of Bulfalo, to the West und South
by way of Pittsburg and Baltimore, Phila
delphia has, through this new Reading
alliance, likewise its own direct road to
New England and tho Canadas.

A conspiracy has been discovered among

Tho conspirators proposed, it is stated,
to suborn the navy and turn the vessels
over to tho enemies of tho govern

has been discovered in the collection of

a hatching place for conspiracies, and a

Ho was visiting tho Auburn, N. Y,,
penitentiary last week, when Perry, the
train robber, escaped, lie saw Perry's
capture, and says:
"One of tho keepers grabbed a heavy
blllet ot wood, and, though Perry was
not then unruly, hit him over the head.
knocking him insensible, and injuring
him so badly that I was informed
ue could not recover. The assault on the
prisoner seemed to mo to bo entirely un

"I have traveled all over Europe visit

reform congress in St. Petersburg some
years ago I saw the prisons of the Czar.
Much ns they are to bo condemned, I
have never Been or heard directly of a
single case of brutality which equaled the
attack made on the defenseless prisoner
in Auburn."

Npw York, Oct. 27. In addition to
Drs. Hall and Booth, two mora ot tha di
rectors of the Union Theological Seminary
have resigned their positions as directors.
The two men are Ituv. Erskine N. White
of this city and the Itov, Dr. Charles A.
Dickey of Philadelphia.
The resignations are the outcome of
the difference ot opinion between tho
faculty of the Union Theological Semi
miry and tho General Assembly ot the
Presbyterian Church,
IE is said that tho Rev. Dr. John C.
Bliss, Moderator of the presbytery, who is
said not to be in thorough accord with
his fellow seminary directors iu thoir act
of secesslouj Dr. William A. Booth ot
Englewood, N. J., nnd Dr. Woroestor,
Professor of Systematic Theology, also
contemplate resiguing.
The resignations ot Drs, Booth and
Hall are irrevocable. They will not bo
asked to reconsider their decision, but
their letters will be placed before the
Seminary Board at its next meeting uud
their places will be filled soon.
Dr. Booth explains his action by saying
that his resignation was not caused by
any bad feeling. It is simply a belief
that the compact made between the Gen
eral Assembly and tho seminary, two re
ligious bodies, cannot bo abrogated. It
has been abrogated, uud first-class law
yers have supported tho legality of tho
action. With him it is a,matter ot oou

States above named, Cleveland will have
220 votes, and will be elected even thougl

are sure ot llvo or six votes for Cleveland

votes short of a clear majority, it would

If the utmost Kepublicau claims should b

"I have not counted tho four votes of

that the formor will go for Cleveland aud
the lattor is, at ttio loast, uncertain fot
Harrison.
"It seems to me, therefore, that while
there are uncertainties on both sides, the
sum of tho uncertainties is decidedly
against the Republicans. Thoy may pos
sibly carry New York, but thoy have not
such grounds for confidence in that State
as tho Democrats have: or thoy may pos

Jersey Citv, Oct. 27. Chairman
Franklin Murphy of the Republican State
Committee gives the following as his
opinion of tha political outlook in New
Jersey:
"The State Committee Is prosecuting
the campaign with all the vigor that it
possesses. Regular meetings of tho com
mlttee are held every Tuesday. The
meetings of the Executive Committee
may be said to be continuous. Their
work has been greatly aided by the can
didate for Governor, whose large politi
cal experience makes his judgment of the
greatest value to them. As an evidence
of the vigor with which the work is being
executed, it might bo stated that sixty
meetings were held last week under the
auspices of the State Committee, and
these do not Include a large number of
smaller meetings held under tho direc
tion of the various county committees.
"The advices from all over tho State
indicate u most hopeful condition of af
fairs. "It is the opinion of old campaigners
that there has not been so much enthusi
asm iu the Republican cause since the
war.
"The State committee is fully aware
of tho dissensions iu the Democratic
ranks, aa well as tho dissatisfaction
among the peoplo with the Democratic
administration, As a matter of tact,
tho Democratic party is ou tho defensive,
and the committee proposes to keep them
there by pursuing an aggressive cam
paign until election, in the full belief
that tho time has come when the people
aro tired of Democratic misrulo, and
will place iu the bauds of the Republican
party the responsibility ot the State
government."

London, Oct. 27. Tho news of tin
death of HHrry Vane Mllbank, tho duel

He died 011 Monday at Davos I'iatz,
Switzerland, of u broken constitution.
Harry -Vane Milbahk was au English
man by birth but has lived ou the contin
ent the greater part of his life.
lie WHscducitHl at rUouunu afterwards
joined the Blues.
Uli his regiment he pnmed through
the war in the Soudan and was present
mill neutral Herbert Stewart when the
latter was killed.
His principal other occupation has been
10 jeml money and fight duels.
He has owned racing stables in Lng-
l.ind, Cieruiany and France, and, while
not. known as a plunger, he has been a
lonitant player at most of the gaming
clubs of the European capitals.
He has gone the pace as few, even of
his own countrymen, have done.
How many duels .Mllbank fought even
his best friends do not know, but he is
said to have participated in seventeen or
eighteen.
lhe natural inference is that n man
who lias killed four men in single combat
is a bloodthirsty monster. But Mllbank
claimed that he never provoked a quar
rel. He considered himself unfortunate
in having obtained a reputation as u
duellist which ho bus been compelled to
uphold all over Europe, where, particu
larly iu 1' ranee and Italy, ambitious
fighters have schemed to bring about
quarrels for the sake of testing their
skill with pitol or rapier against an Eng
lishman,
Harry Mllbank was n son of Sir Fred
erick Mllbank and a grandson of Mark
Mllbank, who married the daughter
of the first Duke of Cleveland.
His sister was the wife of Count
Kliest von Loss, a German nobleman,
who is a brother-in-law of the Duke of
Hamilton.
The young man spent 300,000 pounds,
but ktlll had a large fortune left. Hail
he lived, there was u probability that
within a short time lie might have been
numbered among the score of richest
Englishmen
'lhe late Duke of Cleveland, whose per
sonal estate after his death was valued at
5,000,000 pounds sterling, was one ot the
greatest mineral owners in Great Brit
am. He owned u large part ot Durham
and tho richest coal uud iron dUtrict in
England.
Sir Frederick Milbank would have been
tho unquestioned heir to this entire estato
had he not consented some time ago to
cut off ! -nr.ul In consideration of 500,
000 pomiu-i.

A GREAT GRAIN BLOCKADE.

of .Siile-trurkod.
Chicago, Oct. 27. There are 10,000
loaded grain cars here, and there is ab
solutely no place to unload them. Every
elevator is full, few of tho shippers are
inclined to pay the full rate, and the
majority do not euro to handle it ut any
price.
The roasou for the lack of lake trans
portation is that every elevator from To
ledo to Buffalo seams to be as full
ns those iu Chicago nre. Eustbound
lines from Chlcairo aro boginningto hold
their cars. It they took every car of
the tralllc offered thom they might easily
see the time within a few weeks when
all their cars would bo used as store
houses on trunk line side tracks.
Exactly this state of nflairs is coming
about in a less degree on Western roads.
Cars aro being piled up in Chicago at a
rate which will soon make the blockade
of last year au Insignificant affair. To
remove tho blockade from here is exactly
tho samons pushing the Chicago end of a
rope, the other end of which is in New
York city. The rope must be pulled from
the New York end.
Sioux City, Iowa, Oct. 27. The grain
blockade and car famine has sot in. In
northwest Iowa, South Dakota and Ne
braska the roads are unable to handle auy
grain at nil, and most ot the lines are re

since tho roads became swamped'has filled
