Mr. Popploton, the Iswyer of the Company, has beon granted ton days by tho Attornoy-Gonoral whoreln ' to propare an argument. The Altornoy-Genoral has deolded nothing excopt that tho Gov- omment has the right to repsy itself out of tho freights passing over tho bridge botweon Omahn and Council Bluffs, which' mcidontally makes Council Blufts the logal torminus.

A year or two ngo, Mr. Charles Goodrich, brothor of thoe Hon. W. W. Goodrich, of Brooklyn, went to that city to dwoll. Ho had lived in Now York five years, aud Lad omassed s compe- tonoy in the lumbor business. Ho bought some property in DoGraw streot, noar Fifth avonuo, and Inid {t out in bullding: lote. At that time the nelghborhood was g[onk and dosolato, dotted ovor with littlo shantios, ss it ia even mow in some places. Mr. Goodrich orected six nont, threo-story, brown-stone houses, nnd shed one of thom for his own Geoupancy. Ho wos o widower, about 42 yeors of age, two yers tho sonlor of bun bottor-known brothor, and o gomewhnt lono- l{’ man, Hismenls ho somotimoes toolk out of the houso, and =momotimes in it. No one lived in tho houso with him. What domostic work was required, ho performed him- self. A fow woels ago, ho_gold threo of tho six houses, and whien this wook commenced, he had made arrangementa to leaso tho house fo lived in to his brother. Yostorday morning, Mr. W, A. Goodrich, who woa in tho babit of vieiting hia widowod brother, callod at the houso. It was closed. Tho front doors woro boltod end burred, and 8o loaving o litle pall in which ho had brought somothing for Cliarles undor the stoop, he wont away. This morning, at & quarter to 9, ho returned, ond still tho house was barred and | bolted, whilo tho littlo ail romainod procisoly whore ho had left it. . Mr, Goodrick grow alarmed, and npbraided himself {or not foroing an entranco on the previous dw{. Going to the house of W. Ray Pottor, real cstate agont, in Fulton avenue, near Flatbush, he ob- tainod tho koys of tho house next door to his brother's. nnmhing the roof, ho found scuttles all opon. Tho doors on tho lower flooy woro nll locked, oxcopt one which communicatod with the front basemont, Mr. Goodrich turned tho handlo of this door and entored, Thore, in tho contre of tho floor, hfl tho dead body of his brother.

On tho left sido of the head, just undor tho tem- plo, was o round hole clotted with blood, tho un- mistakablo mark of a pistol, Tho dead man's conrs wero bluo, and the upper part of the faco somowhat discolored. is hair was matted by - s own blood.

An examination of tho body disclosed that the dead man had in his possossion_n copy of o Now York_evening nawuq‘nper of Wednoesdpy, b o'clock edition, and that his watch and pocket- book were gone. A plain, gold shirt-stud, how- ovor, romained, ond a pair of modest golden eyes remained wide opon, pors encased his foot. was & wound, sloove-links, On the mantelplece were a numbor of half-burned matches, two lomps, o pleco of iron, and the life insurance policies of tho docossed. On lift- ing tho hoad it waa goen that the boot logs wore saturatod with blood, whilo uuderneath the boot logs a small pieco of carpet, difforent in pattern and color from that which covered the floor, - had been placod aa . though . to cateh drippings of blood from tho wounds in the head. At & . fow inches’ distance lay a crumpled picce of papor stained with blood, as though tho murdorer had hastily wiped upon it his bloody hands. In tho Dack bascment, over the wator-tank, were three towels. Two wero dry; tho other was damp, ,ond stains of blood wora clearly visiblo on it.

Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Prrrspuncy, March 21.—Tho contost whick was to decido throughout the State whother li- conse or no liconse should bo granted in cities, towns, boroughy, and countics, by vote of tho people, camo off to-duy. This election, by an act of the Legislature, occura triennially. Hitherto Pittsburgh and Allogheny County have boon exempt from the law, but last year o great renction among the temperance sociotios, pro- bhibitlonists, oto., throughout the State, caused the Legislaturo this year to onaot, a8 & compro= ‘miso, that this city and county should voto on tho third Friday of March, whon tho oclection would bs held throughout thoBtate. The contest hora on tho question of local option .was very groat. The Tomperance Allianco left no stona unturned, and made a gallant fight, but the liquor-denlors and brewers weronot behindhand, Thoy, too, were on tho lookout for their side of the corn-patch, Thoy took care that their crop should not go to waste by auy lack of onergy or work upon theit part. This community is groat~ 1y composod of the foroign clemont, German, Irish, and Welsh conatituting tho main bulk of the population. Those, of course, favor license. The rolling-mill hands ofl favored it, honce the largo vote for it polled in this place and Allegbony. When taken into copeidoration that £20,000,000are invested in thia county, inthe “nofarious trafle,” as it is called by the tom- porance mew, the conteut could not help but bo nlp-and-tuck, Tho temporence mon had n band engaged to parado the city in a wagon through- out the day, offoring o haudsomo flag to the ward that would roll up tho largest voto agaiust licenses, but, dospito thelr offorts, this city lina carried the day by a vory large majority for liconsa, Tho oxcitemout™ throughout ths day was most intonse. A groat deal of per- gonal foollng was shown, but thore woro no encountors betwoon aEposlug factions. Hitherto sumptuary laws have beon enacted by legislative bodies without leaviug it to a voto of tho peoplo; but it was thought by this moans tho popular voico could be roached, and what- ‘ever tho dacision, eithor side would abido it. ‘The connty has probably gono against liconso. Everybody oxpoctod it, 88 tho _country poopls aro much opposod to liconsiug dram-shops, In somo of tho continguaus territory now onnexed to this city, snd some about to bo aunexed, pro- hibition is in forco.
