Inti -ml 'I to ALBION'S ELECT. THS ST. LOUIS, SAN2AS CITY be erected in the memory of the honored dead, is completed. The sar an extention of the Bee line to Kansas City, and the possibility of carry ing out such a project. It is an open secret that tho Bee line has long desired a Kansas City extension or con-neciion which it could control, in order to bo placed on an equal footing with the other eastern lines which already possess a Kansas City route.

It is openly admitted by Boo line officials that uch an acquisition would be a most desirable one, and would give them advantages which it cannot expect to possess without its own western line. Another cir i CITT OFFICfcBS. Mayor. K. Blackburn City Clerk.

CUTTING AND FITTING A SPECIALTY. AUD C0L0BAE0 B. E- CO. It Sesms to Stand cs a Solid Foun dation and Points The Globe-Democrat says, the first mortgage of the St. Louis, Kansas City and Colorado railroad company, bearing date of anuary 13, 18SG, in the sum of 20,000,000, in favor of the American Loan and Trust company, of New York, was recorded in oL ajouis yesterday, me new com- pany is incorporated under and by virtue of the laws of Kansas, and issues a series of 20,000 bonds at 81,000, aggregating 20,000,000, which bonds are to be secured bv the aforesaid mortgage.

The bonds bear per cent interest and the mortgage provides for the default as is customary, conveying to the American Loan and Trust company, trustee, all its lines now built and to be built, beginning at a point on the western line of Seward county, thence eastwardly across the state of Kansas, through the counties of Seward, Ford, Comanche, Barbour, Har- per, Jbunmer, Uowiey, Chautauqua, Elk, Wilson, Neosho, Crawford, Bourbon, and Linn, passing through the tier of counties border ing on the Indian Territory. Xrom the eastern boundary of Linn county Kansas, the road will pass through the state of Missouri, extending eastwardly through the counties of Ver non, Bates, Henry, Johnson, Cass and Jackson to the Union depot in Kansas City, and from the point where the road runs northwesterly to Kansas City, eastwardly through the counties of Henrv, Benton, Morran, Miller, Cole, Osage, Maries, Gascon-ado, Franklin, St. Louis, and into the city oi St. Louis, to and through the Union depot to the west bank of the Mississippi river at St. Louis.

Another portion of tho road will commence at the western line of Chase county, Kansas, running eastwardly through the counties of Chase, Lyon, Coffey, Anderson and Linn, in Kansas, to tho eastern line of Linn county, and thence through Bates county, Missouri, to a point at or near the same, where the road runs eastwardly to St. Louis. The mortgage bears the signature of the St. Louis, Kansas City and Colorado railroad company by Francis Tierman, president, and Robert Popkess, secretary, and by the American Loan and Trust company, by R. N.

Hazard, president and AV. D. Snow, secretary. Work has already begun on the St. Louis end of the line and it is the intention to begin at tho other end, on the Colorado line, at once or as soon as the weather will permit the construction of the line to be prosecuted in both directions.

The line will keep to the east of the Mississippi river, and will not make Kansas City the terminus, tho objective point being Trinidad, Colorado. Kansas City will bo reached by a spur from tho main line, commencing in Benton, in Henry county, running through Henry, Johnson, Cass and Jackson, before this spur is constructed an effort will be made to secure traffic arrangements with the Kansas JCity, Fort Scott and Gulf. Incase this arrangement can not be perfected the spur will be built at once. While the St. Louis, Kansas City and Color-do will parallel, and to a large degree become a direct competitor of the Missouri Pacific system, it will open up new country lacking railroad facilities, and will bo pre-eminently a St.

Louis Fifteen carloads of rails for the new road have been received, and more will at once follow. The first indication of fair weather will be the signal for tho commencement of track-laying, In reference to securing entry to St. Louis, it is thought no difficulty will be expected in that quarter. It it probable that a bridge will be built at the Chain of Rocks, and all the plans of the company seem to be well matured. BACKED EX THE BEE LINE.

There is a growing Belief that Bee line is at the back of the recently developed project known as the St. Louis and Colorado railroad, says a SL Louis paper, and the theory is well grounded whether such be the case or not. When President Devereux last came west he paid a visit to Kansas City, with nothing to call him there unless it was to personally inform himself a3 to the desirability of Montreal, Feb. 6. Crowfeet, the celebrated Blackfeet chief, has been telling the government agent how Eiel iirte hirn to the Indian war.

He asserts that Piiel visited him in Montana, in 13S0, saying that he intended to unite the Metts, Crees, Blackfeet and the American Sioux, under Sitting Ball, on the border at that time. At that; time Sitting Bull was in bad odor in the United States owing to tlie Custer massacre. The interpreter, who was with Crowfeet during the interview Willi Riel, corroborates the story told by the chief, and says that II lei told them that he was backed by inliuential persons in east Canada. "Winnipeg, 6. feaptiste and Pirre Vandell, tvo 6f the prisoners sentenced to seven years in the penitentiary for being participants in the Reii riot, are now in the city, having been released yesterday by order of the Governor General.

This is believed to be the precuror to a general amnesty to all the prisoners now at Stoney Mountain. The released convicts leave for Batouch to-morrow to join their families. There are twenty-five more half breeds in the penitentiary. It is doubtful if Poundma-ker and Big Bear with the other Indians will be released just now, pending the result of the Indian scare out west. Sale Assembly.

Topeka, Feb. 1 The house met this morning, bat he attendance was too thin to risk taking up the third readfng of bills. The session was occupied in committee of the whole, wherein several local bills were passed upon, also a bill to compel switch connections where railroads cross or connect, and the bill allowing domestic animals which are in fected to run at large, also the bill concerning irrigation, similar to the California law, and a bill requiring hedges along highways to be cut back to live and one-half feet onco a year. The afternoon session in the house was largely spent in the discussion of the resolution declaring that the sense of th house on the apportionment should provide for only 121 representative destricts. It was adopted 43 to 42, but a large part of the absentees were eastern members.

Senate bills were passed to authorize chartered railways to raise from narrow to standard gnage. To authorize counties with 000 inhabitants to maintain high schools. To authorize Washington county to lew a half-mill tax annually to build a court, house. A house bill passed to enable Mc Pherson City to maintain a high school. The special orders for this afternoon were postponed until Tuesday forenoon.

The Iiidi.u KuvItJg Arms. Chicago, Feb. G. Referring to the reported uneasiness on the lied Xiake reservation, in Minnesota, a special dispatch from Ada, says: signs of activity and agitation among the Indians have been reported with alarm. Bucks on the Bed Lake reservation are running hither and thither in the most unexplained and mysterious manner, aud frequent expeditions are being made to Crook-stpn.

Bed Lake Ifalls and neighboring towns, where ammunition is procured in quantities. It is reported that in several towns not a firearm remains for sale in the stores, and private individuals have sold their guns to importuning Indians, who report a great dal amount of game this winter, Indianrunners are traversing the countrv in everv direction, and powwows in almost every district are reported. Parties who recently traversed AYhith Heart's reservation report alarm and uneasiness over the action of the Indians. The larere camp which has been from time immemorial on Upper Bed lake has been removed to Bice in the dead of Winter. The young bucks are jubilant and excited.

They have taken to paint, and carry a red streak on each cheek, something not observed on them of late years. The camp on Bice Lake presents unusual scenes of activity, and Indians from all over the reservation are gathering there. Ponies are in great demand, and can not be purchased at any price. Gladstone's New Liberal Cabinet. London, Feb.

P. Attorney General Chas. Russell, Q. C. and M.

P. GENERAL SURPRISE IN ENGLAND. The announcement of the appointments has caused great surprise as it contradicts almost every prediction that has been made during the past week, the only names that have been fitted to the right offices having been those of Sir Farrar Herschell the earl of Kimberly, and Messrs. Morley and Mundell. The last bears palpable marks of a compromise between the whigs and radicals.

At least four of the new appointees havo been obliged to take smaller, offices than they expected. These are Lord Granville, who wished to return to the foreign office, Sir William Vernon Harcourt, who aspired to the lord chancellorship, Mr. Chamberlain, who had an ambitious eye on the exchequer, and Lord Spencer, who wanted to be secretary for India. CIed from Mortal Cleveland, Feb. 6.

Lake view cemetery presented beautiful and picturesque view this morning, the the silent sentry pacing back and forth before the Garfield vault and all was silent as the tomb. Sudden ly three conveyances appeared on the scene, which brought a handsome bronze sarcophagus. The undertaker and five representatives of the press and no'one else piesent except James R. Garfield, Lieutenant Edwards and soldiers stationed at Garfield post. A transfer of the remains of the.

late President Garfield had been under consideration seme time. The casket containing all that is mortal of the martyred president rested in its usual position in the vault, and its shellac-stained sides presented a natural appearance, On every hand, it showed that the illustrious dead remembered by loving friends. The casket was not opened but quietly placed in the sarcophagus under the direction of the undertaker. The outer covering was then permet-rically sealed and the remains were lost to mortal view forever. The sarcophagus was then returned to the vault, where it will remain until the handsome monument, which is to cophagus is a work of art, and is the finest article of the kind ever manu factured in this country.

It is a sol 11 ia bronze metal, liandsomelv orna mented, and weighs 450 pounds. The top is partially oval, and massive handles run along the sides and ends. The entire sarcophagus rests on four lions feet, one at each corner indicat infr strength. A handsome tablet of superior workmanship is placed on top of the sarcophagus. It is Gxl5 inches, designed by Tiffany, and can not be duplicated for $500.

Odo man was constantly employed for forty- five days in doing the chasing work. On each end are lillies, oak leaves and; acorns. The ornament projection, in the center of which are lich ens and calacanthus intertwined, gives a beautiful effect. The cost of the sarcophagus was 2,000. The military guard about the vault will be continued until the latter part of next June.

What Sext? New Brigton, Feb. 1. The Railway Telegraph and Telephone company gave an exibition on the Staten railway, this afternoon, of the new method of sending and receiving messages on a railway train whiie the train was running at the rate of forty miles an hour. Mr. Edison said the new wonder in telegraphy would be introduced at once on the Hlinois Central railway.

i Stockmen oj the Lookout. Lewiston, Feb. 6. On Jan- uary 30, at Gabriel Dumont's ranch, five miles from here, six Cree Indians arrived from tho north-west to hold a council with Gabriel Dumont, one of Riel's lieutenants. They report about thirty 'lodges of their tribe near Fort Assiniboine.

gThere is trouble abroad and another rebellion in early spring is looked for. They claim to have starved out. Stockmen are'on the look out, fearing the Crees will runoff their horses. STATE ITEMS. There is talk of building a Presbyterian church at Dillon.

The Rev. William Bishop, D. was married at Salina February 2nd, to Miss Mary Macey. The new M. E.

church at Anelley is completed and will be dedicated Sunday, February 14th. Emrjoriahas appropriated $500 to publishing a pamphlet descriptive of the city and adjacent county. A boy by the name of Hoyt, aged 16, accidentally shot and killed himself on Sundav. He had lived north of Oneida. Jasper N.

Smyth, an old citizen of Parsons, died in the insane asylum at Topeka Sunday night, where he had been about a year. The Barber county Index says it requires four busies regularly to haul the passengers to and from the train in Medicine Lodge. The annual encampment of the A. R. department of Kansas will convene February 13, in Wichita, and continue in session three days.

It is reported by those who are competent to judge that tho peach crop will be a failure in Kansas this year on account of severe weather. Out at Lenora, during the late severe storm, the wolves rustled around for a meal, and entered a stable belonging to J. C. Wright and attempted to kill his horse. They cut the poor horse up pretty seriously, but for some reason left it alive.

The Parsons people were considerably excited recently by a large black dog, supposed to be rabid, rushing madly through the streets, attacking every one who came within reach him. Miss Prudie Drew was bitten just above the ankle, the dog's teeth penetrate to the bone; A. Diggs was sevely bitten in the right lesz Orr Fithian was thrown down by the dog, but sustained no injury except the tearing of his clothes; the dog fastened his teeth in one of Hoke's overshoes, but was kicked off without doing any damage; Will Roberts, a colored boy. was badly bitten on the leg. The dog was fi- nally shot and killed by A.

H. Kried-er. There is a good deal of differ ence of opinion as to whether the dog was really rabid or simply vicious. cumstance which tends to strengthen the belief that tha Bee lino is clandestinely, if net avowedly, the power behind the throno in the St. Louis, Kansas City and Colorado project, is the fact thafc it is generally known in Indianapolis, the centre of Bee line interests, end has been so known there for some time past, that thi Missouri project was to be undertaken by well known railroad men in that section, and Colonel M.

A. Dow ning and H. E. Drew of Indianapolis, and N. IL Elliott and Henry-Crawford of Tarre Haute are directly interested is.

the project. The- evidence tends to show tbat Indianapolis takes a lrreiier interest in the enterprise than is consistent with a project in which, that city is not directly concerned and' to be benefited by. It is not to be expected that the parties in civarge of tho work will divulge this fact if it be true, otherwise there Monld be no-necessity in placing scch a great stress upon the independence of the new line. It must also be taken into consideration that twenty-five a month is rapid railroad and that it takes money to ikisIi this sort of work. The theory that powerful backing is looseningrthe purse strings of the American trust fund company, with whom tho first mortgage of the St Louis, Kansas City and Colorador for 20,000,000, ha been placed, would seem to be weTT founded, and it is known that tho Bee- line is the only road entering St.

Louis which, needs a Kansas City extension badly and has not got it The foregoing accords with information in possession of the editor of the Monitor which he 5s not at liberty to state in full, but it may be stated that a few weeks three prominent officers of the Be line visited the city, and went frorhereto Kansas City. PuttiDg the fact that Ft Scott is directly on a line from St. Louis to Trinidad, ami the visit cf these gentlemen together, it looks as if Fort Scott may be on the main line, and Kansas City at the end of a spur. Time makes all things even" is a wise saw that our metropolitan rival may yet learn. There is considerable excitement in Jefferson township orer a shooting affair at Jefferson mills The mill is a new one, completed aboat a month ago, three-fourths interest being owned by Michael Hoffman, Leonard Hoffman and Fred Gantccbine, and Gustavo V.

Iluhn claiming a contingent ownership in ih other fourth It seems Huhn who i a miller, had run the mill one month and refused to account to the owners for the proceeds or any part of them, or to give them possession of the inill. On Tuesday, Jauary 26 the Hoffmans and Gantenbine entered the mill, which was open, with the intention of taking possession, having first vk ited Huhn at his residence and made every effort to effect a stttlement Huhn soon came to the mill in great rage and attempted to batter down the door with a pledge hammer, but failing in this ho went into the open basement aricf alfempted to ascend through the trap door. Being resisted in his efforts to raise the trap door ho fired several shots up through tho door, one shot passed through tho sleeve of Michael Hoffman and diking him just over the eye and glancing upward, inflicting a severe scalp wound, which bled profusely. Another shot went through the coat of a young man present, knocking a handkerchief out of his pocket By this time other parties appeared on the scene, and Hahn, finding himself likely to be overpowered, threw away his revolver and left Professor Asa Gray, of Howard, has sent an autograph letter of thanks to each of the 150 botanists who contributed to the memorial vase presented to him on his seventy-fifth Hi.
