Should Mind His Own Business. CHICAGO, Jan. 8. A meeting of general passenger agents of the TransMissouri association has been called to consider the charges of rate manipulation against the Chicago Alton road. The charges are made by Chairman Smythe himself, who says the Alton, by selling its orders in Denver to passengers going to St.
and Chicago, effects a reduction in the rate east of Kansas City. It does not seem to be of any consequence to Smythe that the alleged reduction is in territory over which he has no jurisdiction, but he goes further and suggests to lines in his association that the only way to properly punish the Alton is to take its tickets off sale. General Passenger Agent Charleton has written a scathing letter to Chairman Smythe advising him to look after reads in his own association. Rates to the People's Convention. ST.
LoUIS, Jan. Missouri Pacific, the Burlington and Wabash roads announce a rate of one fare for the round trip, with convenient return limits from all leading points in westen territory, the northwest and southwest, for the national convention of the People's party to be held in St. Louis February 22.

Louis and return for persons attending said convention. Tickets will be on sale February 20 to 23 inclusive, with return limit March 10, 1892. The Santa Fe Statement. BOSTON, Jan. -The Atchison (approximate) statement for December, including the St.

TOPEKA, Jan. 8. -The state board of railway commissioners today decided the famous sugar case in which the wholesale grocers Kansas rate, complained that the railroads and sugar kings had formed a combine in the interest of Kansas City and other Missouri river wholesale points.
The commissioners order the railroads to make a rate remedying this on or before February 1, and say if they do not, the commissioners will make such a rate them to it.

There is excitement at Newmarket, a thriving village south of here, and the origin of the trouble is a rabbit hunt. A week ago two factions under the taincy of John Warbritton and alone Proctor sallied and spent the day in slaying cotton The Proctor crowd was not in the race, and finished 130 rabbits in the rear. By previous arrangement the losing side was to pay for an oyster supper and Warbritton was appointed to secure a caterer and arrange preliminaries. A number who participated in the hunt were generous with advice as to preparations and hinted that something besides pop and cider would be needed as a "throat wash." The whole place was quivering with excitement till yesterday, when Warbritton announced that the Methodist church ladies had been awarded the contract for furnishing the banquet. Then there was trouble sure enough.
An indignation meeting was called and fiery speeches were made. One grayheaded grandsire declared "he had lived nigh onto eighty years, but bad never eat no Methodist grub and didn't calculate to eat prayer meeting hash in his old age." "The sentiment was decidedly against mixing rabbit hunts religion, so they decided to boycott the affair. Special policemen have been sworn in, and if not molested it will yet be the swellest feast for years. MARYVILLE, MO. The Grip Downs an Editor--The Schools and Churches.
MARYVILLE, Jan. Todd of the Democrat, is a grippe victim. The heating apparatus in the public school building is proving itself insufficient for this cold weather. Last year the same complaint was made but unheeded. W.
J. Staples will erect: a pretty residence on the site of the old Presbyterian church. Fred Gehring has resigned his position with T. J. Parle and will embark in business in Stanberry.
Recorder John Devlin says $26,000 in real estate transfers is not a bad showing for our abstract offices and at the dull season of the year. The annual Nodaway county Sunday school convention meets in Maryville the 15th, 16th and 17th inst. Martin Lewis, who has opened a first class news stand is meeting with much success. The Democrat says the Second Presbyterian church had its stocking well filled in the way of a beautiful hall lamp and a set of handsome curtains from friends, while an elegant communion table and pulpit have just been ordered. When the weather permits, paint and other repairs for the outside will be looked after.
Rev. A. R. Reynolds IS on the sick list. SLY IS ILLEGALLY HELD.
Circuit Attorney Says the Warrant on Which He Was Arres'ed is Frulty. ST. LOUIS, Jan. D. Sly, the Glendale train robber, who is now in jail here, is being illegally restrained, as the warrant is faulty.
Were he to make a fight to gain his release on a writ of habeas corpus, and no other action was taken by the police to hold him, he could easily accomplish his purpose. The same error also exists in the warrants against the other members of the gang. As the robbery was committed in St. Louis county, the proper place, Circuit Attorney Clover says, to have obtained the warrant was in St. Louis county.
The robbers can, under no circ*mstances, be tried in St. Louis on any other charge unless it is proved that they brought stolen money into the city or the case is brought to St. Louis on a change of venue. WASHINGTON'S SICK. Speaker Crisp Will be Out of Bed Monday- -Blaine at the Cabinet Meeting.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. Speaker Crisp's health continues steadily improving. Physicians expect to have the speaker out of bed and sitting in his room Monday. Secretary Blaine spent the morning in his library at home with his private secretary, going over a number of documents which had been transmitted from the state department for his examination.
When a reporter saw him he was going ahead with his work with his usual zest. He said he felt quite well. In the afternoon Mr. Blaine spent two hours at the White House in conference with the president and cabinet officers. to in Missouri with Shaci-Wanted-Man with $1,000 or security fer's new pancake griddle.

CAIRO, Jan. Pasha, oldest son and successor to the khedive, was in Vienna when the intelligence of the death of his father reached him. Abbass announced his intention of starting immediately for Cairo, to assume the duties which devolved upon him upon his father's death. The funeral of the khedive took place this afternoon. The route of the procession from the palace where he died to Abdin palace, where the ceremonies were held, was lined by a crowd numbering 200,000 people.
The service throughout were of a simple character, but though they were devoid of all ostentation, they were very imposing. Comments of London and Paris Papers LONDON, Jan. Times, commenting on the death of the khedive, says that the succession of the youthful ruler will afford good reason why England should have a tighter hold on Egypt. The Standard says: Should the sultan consider the time opportune to reopen negotiations he will find that while we entertain a punctilious respect for his suzeraine rights, we cannot expose both him and Egypt to a repetition of the dangers from which England alone resued them. The Dix Neuviene Siecle of Paris, foreseeing that arguments like the foregoing would be advanced by the British, demands that the powers combine to prevent the placing of Abbas Pasha under English tutelage.
Anarchists Arrested. Today the police claim they have effected an important arrest of group of anarchists in Wallsall, a town in Staffordshire. A Marie Piebelne, a woman a with whom Frenchman named Victor Gailes, Gailes was living, and Frederick Charles, all residing at Walsall, are in custody. The prisoners are, each about 30 years of age. The residences of the prisoners were searched by the investigation led to most important discoveries concerning the the plotters.
The prisoners were arraigned today. Marie Pibelne was discharged. It is thought she made a confession, and that it is the intention of the authorities to use her as a witness against the other prisoners who were remanded for a week. Steamship Collision, The British steamer Crystal, from Leith, bound for New York, came into collision with the steamer Ida at Shields today, and was so badly damaged she sank half a mile off South Pier. No lives were lost.
A Baroness Dead, Lady Victoria Alexandrina, wife of Baron Sandhurst, died today. THE KANSAS OUTLAWS. Story of One of the Posse Who Was in Pursuit of the Fugitives. KANSAS CITY, Jan. 8.
The Journal's Arkalon, special says: James Norton and Ezra Farwell, from Haskell county, passed through here today on their way home. They were members of the sheriffs' posse which yesterday encountered a party of men who lay in ambush for Judge Botkin, and who shot and killed Sheriff Dunn. Norton was wounded in the shoulder and Farwell in the thigh. They were on their way home to receive medical attention. Norton reporter an account of the fight substantially as follows: "The sheriff's posse, while following a fresh trail believed it to be that of the fleeing murderers, and soon came in view of the fugitives, who numbered fourteen men.
The posse numbered twelve men. They followed the murderers ten miles and finally came in rifle range of them. A running fight ensued for four miles, and four of the fleeing party were shot and seen to fall back into their wagons. None of the posse were injured. "The posse's horses soon became winded we changed animals at one of the ranches and continued the chase.
About dusk they again came upon the fugitives and another fight took place. The attacking party this time got within 100 yards of the fugitives. One of the latter was seen to throw up his arms and fall to the bottom of his wagon, while another was hit in Norton the and shoulder." Farwell were the only of the posse wounded. The fugitives seemed to have fresh horses, for they soon plied the whip and ran away from their pursuers. The posse were resting when Norton and Farwell left them.
AGREEMENT WITH MEXICO. Minister Romero Consults Mr. Blaine on the Question of Garza's Pursuit. WASHINGTON, Jan. Romero of Mexico, in conversation with Secretary Blaine, suggested that an agreement be entered into between Mexico and the United States by which the Garza revolutionists might be pursued across the border to either ceuntry in which they might seek to find refuge.
In other words, there should be no neutral territory for revolutionists. This question is considered to be a most serious one, involving a degree of diplomatic and international delicacy of unusual importance. The matter of damage that might be done to American life and property renders the question a difficult one to decide, particularly in view of the present friendly relations between the United States and Mexico. It is understood the secretary of state opposed the proposition as tending to establish a dangerous precedent in the treatment of political offenders. No action will be taken by the United States, however, unless the matter is formally presented by the Mexican government.
Missouri Pacifi: Engineers. ST. Lovis, Jan. a sossian of twenty-seven days the committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineors has agreed to a contract with the Missouri Pacific system, which is somewhat molified from that of 1885, arranged with Mr. Hox.e, now dead.
Among the changes are said to be an increase in wages on certain lines and a change in the manner of testing the capability of engineers JACKSON'S DAY. The Democrats Celebrate the Anniversary of the Event. NEW YORK, Jan. seventyseventh anniversary of the battle of New Orleans was celebrated by the Business Men's Democratic association tonight by a banquet at the Hoffman house. The event was commemorated particularly in memory of him, who won the battle, "Old Hickory Jackson," and was participated in by about 150 distinguished Democrats.
The banquet hall was decorated in a simple way, hangings comprising only American colors. The toast responded to by ident Cleveland was "The Day We Pres. ebrate." Mr. Cleveland urged that Democrats adhere to their promise that they strive to rid the people of the burdensome and iniquitous protective tariff. "Issues of the Day" was responded to by Congressman Springer.
He said this would be no billion dollar congress. This congress would pass no silver legislation, but would pay particular attention to tariff, the Democratic house passing various bills extending the free list and placing the burden of their defeat upon the senate and the President. Other toasts were as follows: "Twin cities of New York and Brooklyn," by ex-Postmaster Henrix of Brooklyn: "Democrats above Harlem river," by Judge polities," Mahone by of Rome; W. Remington "Business men of Vermont, and "State of New by Jacob A. Canter.

Jackson's Hippodrome at Kausas CityWould Like to Meet Sullivan. KANSAS CITY, Jan Davies, who is managing Peter Jackson's sparring tour, arrived here today with his protege, and Con Reardon, who will spar with Jackson here tomorrow night. The "Parson" in speaking of the Jackson-Slavin fight ticent in naming his for winner, but says Jackson is very confident of success.

The Western association is now certain to be revived. Elmer Smith, with Kansas City last season, has signed a Pittsburgh baseball contract.
A club has at last been found that wants Mike Kelly. Cleveland is after him. John F. Bush favors Sunday games for his Cincinnati club and they will be tried. Nick Young declares that Denny Lyons belongs to New York and will play there or not at all.
The army of unemployed ball players, already large, is constantly growing. Scores of good men are out of jobs. That story from Philadelphia regarding information of a new baseball league was a fake pure and simple. Nick Young announces his staff of umpires, as follows: Lynch, Emslie, Sheridan, McGuire, Hurst and Mahony. The National Baseball board of control with its high salaries has vanished during the peace proceedings and is cold and dead.
Jack Crooks is now a waiter in a dining on a railroad running into St. Paul, $15 per week. To play ball next car, summer he asks $4,000. The once famous pitcher Jack Lynch is now a full-fledged New York "copper." His beat is around Sixtieth street and Lexington avenue. Treasurer Cohen, of Columbus, at Indianapolis, offered $5,000 if Columbus were taken into the league cireuit instead of Louisville.
It was refused. There is sure to be a general cut in salaries after 1892. The man who gets $1,000 for his 1893 work will be very keen, very necessary and very obstinate. Pittsburgh has been notified that its contract with Third Baseman Lyons i is worthless, as the man has been assigned to and must play with New York. In the east it is said that the Wagners, of Philadelphia, made a deal with the league prior to the peace meeting and got $57,500 for retiring, or $20,000 more than Boston.
J. W. Spalding suggests that a substitute take the pitcher's turn at the bat, as "twirlers" usually prove weak batsmen. This move will probably be considered by the league at its next meeting. The Central league movement seems to be progressing nicely.
The cities wanted for it are Columbus, Detroit, Milwaukee, Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha, Kansas City and Indianapolis. Chicago got the worst of the deal in the allotment of players, but Anson is reasonably happy, and is confident that he can worry along if he can secure a first-class pitcher to alternate with Hutchison. It is settled that Cub Stricker is to go to St. Louis, Hardy Richardson to Brooklyn, Tom Brown to Philadelphia, Radford to Washington, and Brouthers, Joyce, Buffington and Haddock to Brooklyn. It is officially announced that the Bostons of 1892 will be made up of Bennett, Ganzel, and Kelly, catchers; Clarkson, Staley, Stivetts and Nichols, pitchers; Tucker, first base; Turner, second base; Nash, third base; Long, shortstop; Duffy, Stovey and McCarthy, outfielders; Low, extra man.
The total amount to be paid the five retiring association clubs is over 000. The twelve clubs of the new organization are to pay an equal amount of the $130,000, making something over $10,800 each. This is to be paid within two years--as much as possible in 1892. The twelve-club league furnishes an outlet from a most disagreeable trap into which the game had fallen. Starvation stared the magnates in the face, and beyond that outlet they could see green fields and the patriotic enthusiasts of old with their eyes and minds on the game and championship alone.
The team captains of 1892 will be as follows: Chicago, Anson; Cleveland, Tebeau; Cincinnati, Comiskey: St. Louis, Glassco*ck; Louisville, Taylor; Pittsburgh, Hanion; New York, Ewing; Brooklyn, Ward; Boston, Nash; Philadelphia, Clements; Washington, Richardson; Baltimore, Ven Haltren. The salary list of the Boston league team next season will be over $60,000. "This," says the Boston Herald, "is more money than was ever paid to 8 ball team before, and, it is safe to say, is one-third more than will be paid again for years to come." Most of the contracts with the players run out next season and a cut down is regarded as inevitable. PRIZE RING DOINGS.
John L. Sullivan 'and his trainer, Jack Barnett, have dissolved partnership. George Dixon has been indicted for his fight with Cal McCarthy at Troy a year ago. Bob Fitzsimmons has been so unsuccesssful in San Francisco that he will not return to that city. Jack Sweeney, known as the "Cleveland Cyclone," wants to fight Pat Farrell, Pittsburgh's middleweight.
Gibbons defeated Bowen at New Orleans and Joe MeAuliffe defeated Patsy Cardiff at San Franciseo. Aleck Greggains, who whipped the "Marine" recently, has challenged Young Mitchell to fight for the Pacific coast championship. The well known Brooklyn sporting man, Charley Johnson, in a very emphatic card, declares that he alone is the backer of John L. Sullivan. Thomas McCarty, of Chicago, and Mort Kazar, of Lockport, wrestled at Joliet.
Ill. McCarty injured himself by falling, and Kazar was awarded the stakes. The Occidental athletic club, of San Francisco, has matched the middleweights, Charley Turner, of Stockton, and Harris Martin, the "Black Pearl." The men signed. to. fight on January 26 for $1,000, and to weigh in at 154 pounds or less.

Unusually bad business is reported by all dramatic combinations playing through the south this winter. It is rumored that Mr. Cyril Scott is about to be married to Louise Eissing, of Henderson's "Sinbad" company. The United States Marine band has secured a leave of absence from Washington and will make another western tour. Mrs.
Lord Fauntleroy Burnett has leased the theater Royal, London, in which she will produce a play of her own called "The Showman's Daughter." Henry E. Abbey does all the managing directly for Patti and Bernhardt, these having two one of famous the women firm insistingon Schoeffel Grau with them. Fulda, the author of "Das Verlorne Paradises," from which De took his ideas of "The Lost Paradise," receives a royalty of five per cent. of the gross receipts of that successful play. Anton Rubinstein, Russian pianist and composer, has declined the offer recently made him for a concert tour in America.
He gives out that he has ceased playing in public. A $1,500,000 opera house and theater on the Chicago exhibition grounds, a structure 400 by 600 feet in area, is the latest idea of Steele Mackaye, the actor and playwright. He has submitted his plan to the world's fair board of architects. Forty rich men, residents of New York and Boston, have subscribed the money necessary to build a theater in New York for Richard Mansfield. A site has been secured on Twenty-ninth street near Fifth avenue, and work will begin immediately.
Converse L. Graves and John M. Hickey, both well-known theatrical men, are said to be perfecting arrangements to produce the Passion Play in Chicago during the world's fair. Both are said to be very confident of the play's success. Frank Wills and Manager Walter F.
Turner, of "Two Old Cronies," engaged in a fight in St. Louis last week, Wills being beautifully "done up." He received a scalp wound that required six stitches to close up. Turner, it is said, has lost $7,000 this season on "The Cronies." Alfred Cellier, the composer, died at London recently. He had been suffering from influenza for two weeks, and on that account was unable to finish the orchestration of "The Mountebank," the comic opera which is the joint work of himself and W. S.
Gilbert, in time for production at the date first set. Lotta's Temporary Retirement. Lotta Crabtree has left the stage, but will probably return as soon as circ*mstances will permit. Her beautiful devotion to her mother has further proof in her abandonment of a successful career to employ herself in the forting of her declining days. Mrs.
Crabtree's health has been failing for some time, and her physician has advised the waters of certain Virginia medica' springs. Lotta accompanies her mother as nurse and companion, and will not return to the stage until her health is fully restored. COLLEGE ATHLETICS. Josh Hartwell will captain. Yale's crew next year.
John Clarkson begins his work as coach of the Harvard club the middle of January. At Kansas City, representatives of the state universities of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri met and formed the Western Interstate University Football association. Men on the various college crews and teams will be. sent to the training tables immediately after their return from the holiday vacation. At some of the colleges the teams have been at work steadily since fall.
Dr. Dudley Allen Sargent, director of the Hemenway gymnasium at Harvard, says that of his summer two school and normal classes are women and that they are the coming teachers of physical culture in this country. The Harvard university nine will be very strong next season with such pitchers as Harry Bates and the lefthander, Highlands, who was so successful when he played with the Boston athletic nine last season. Last season baseball at Harvard was greatly on the wane for the reason that there was no contest with either Yale or Princeton. This year there will be contests with both of these college nines.
