Young Cutting’s Wedding ‘to Minnie Seligman, the Actre The New York Herald says: The reports current at the time of Robert L. Cutting’ sudden death that he had disinherited his son, Robert L. Cutting, jr.. were absolutely correct. The will has not been yet offered for probate in the surrogate's office and there is very little probability that it will be filed until papers sent to France for Mrs. Cutting’s signature have been returned by her. Young Mr. Gutting-willhbegm'a contest as Soon as the will is filed. His qualification as executor of the will of his grandfather last week was the preliminary step toward the contest of his father’s will. The great estate once owned by the Cutting family, and estimated at three or four millions, has now, it is believed, sunk to between $500,000 and $700,000, The grandfather appointed Robert L. Cut- ting. third, one of his executors, with leave to qualify on attaining his majority. This young Cutting did not do till last week. Robert L. Cutting, second, explained in his will distinetly that he disinherited his son for his marriage of Minnie Seligman, the = in 1892, without his father’s con- Mrs. Cutting, the mother, inherited a for- tune from the Meale estate in Baltimore, and an interest in this will eventually go to young Cutting. —————ce+-. SEVERAL MILLIONS INVOLVED. Detroit Wins a Victory Over a Street Railway. Detroit has won a substantial victory in its suit aginst the Detroit Citizens’ Street Railway Company involving the validity of the company’s franchises. Some months ago u decision was render- ed by Judge Taft in the United States Cir- cuit Court, holding that the company's right to the use of the most principal streets had expired. Argument was subsequently heard as to whether the city was not stop- ped from proceeding against the new com- pany through having recognized the valid- ity of an amended franchise giving it re- newed life until 1909, Judge Taft's decision, handed down yes- terday, was against the company’s claim. Several millions of dollars are involved. The company has three months to re- move its tracks in compliance with the de- cree, but can, by filing proper bonds, apveal to the court of appeals, which sits in May next. e+ UNION LABOR LEAGUE. Another Party Launched on the Sea of Politics. The Union Labor League was formally launched on the sea of politics at a mass meeting of workingmen held in Chicago Tuesday night. It will at once begin a vigorous campaign to secure control of all the various branches of national, state, county and municipal government. A platform on which it is expected that the populists and disciples of Henry George may comfort by pulling side by side with the trades unionists was unanimous- ly adopted. —————+ee_______ ROS!

After the debate had closed the Speaker an- nounced that there were two pending amendments—that of the committee on ways and means to increase the duty on barley from 20 to 25 per cent ad valorem and on barley malt from 25 to 35 per cent, and the amendment of Mr. Tawney (Minn.) to in- crease the duty to 22 cents per bushel on barley and 32 cents on varley malt. The first vote was taken on the Tawney amend- ment, which was lost upon 2n aye and nay vote by 120 to 197. The committee amend- ment w: then agreed to—202 to 104, al- though a number of democrats, including Messrs. Lockwood of New York, McCreary, MeMillin, Warner, Bland, Wheeler of Ala- bama and Wolverton voted against it. The Speaker then announced that the vote was upon the amen:Iments adopted by the committee of the whole. Mr. Johnson of Ohio demanded a separate vote on the wool and woolen amendments, and Mr. English (N. J.) upon the income tax and upon the petroleum amendment. ‘The other amend- ments, including that amendment abolishing | the bounty on sugar and chat placing re- fined sugar on the free list, were then agreed to in bulk without division. The Wool Sched The first amendment, to which Mr. John- son desired a separate vote upon, was that placing wool upon the free list, immediately upon the passage of the bill. This amend- ment having been vitiated by a iater amendment placing the date at August 2, a point of order was raised that the latter amendment must first be voted upon, but after some discussion the chair decided that the Johnson amendment must first be voted upon to perfect the text and that the real test would come upon the amendment to strike out the words “immediately after the passage of the bill” and insert “on and after August 2.” The Johnson amendment was therefore agreed to without division. ‘The other amendment was agreed to—205 to 147. Mr. Johnson tried to get the ayes and nays, but could only muster five votes to his aid. The amendment fixing the date as December 2, when the manufactured wool- ens schedule should go into effect, was also adopted—200 to 136, Mr. Johnson again be- ing unable to secure the ayes and nays. The vote was then taken upon the amendment was carried—170 to 47. The Income Tax Amendment. The last amendment to be voted upon was that providing for the income tax. Mr. Cockran demanded the ayes and nays upon this amendment. It was significant that the republicans refused to second the de- mand for the ayes and nays, but enough democrats arose (51) to order the roll call. It was then found that the income tax could not be voted upon as a separate proposi- tion, the Speaker deciding in accordance with a precedent, which he cited, that the internal revenue amendment having been reported as a single amendment, could not be divided. The vote, therefore, was upon the entire rejection of the internal revenue amendment. The republicans, with a few exceptions, refused to vote, but the amnedment, in- ~—e the income tax, was adopted, 182 to 50. The populists voted in the affirmative, as did the following republicans: Bowers(Cal.), Fletcher (Mo.), Hartman (Mont.), March @iL), Pickler (S.D.), White (Ohio), and Sweet (Idaho). ‘Those who voted aguinst the amendment were: Babcock (Wis.), Bartlett, Beltzhoover, Brawley, Brosius (Pa.), Cadmus, Campbell, Causey, Clancey,Cockran, Compton,Coombs, Cornish, Covert, Cummings, Davey, De- Forest, Dunn, Dunphy, English, Everett, Fielder, Geissenhainer, Haines, Harter, Hendrix, Lapham, Lockwood, Manger, Mc- Aleer, McCall (Mass.), cKaig, Meyer, Morse (Mass.), Mutchler, O'Neill, Page, Powers (Vt.), Price, Rayner, Reilly, Rusk, Ryan, Schermerhorn, Scranton*(Pa.), Sick- les, Sperry, Stevens, Talbot (Md.), Warner and Wolverton. The Motion to Recommit Lost. Some cheering greeted the announcement of the vote. The bill was engrossed and read the third time. The last stage in the | passage of the bill had been reached, when Mr. Covert (N.Y.), standing in the center isle, moved to recommit the bill to the committee, with instructions “to report it back with such amendments as will pro- vide, by duties levied on imports, for such additional revenue as may be necessary to the support of the government, economical- ly administered.” Upon that motion Mr. Cockran demanded the ayes and nays, but only thirty-six democrats rose to second the demand (principally those who had voted against the income tax, together with the Loui: jas then defeated on a rising vote—1U3 to 177. The Bill Pasned. Then came the final vote on the bill it- self, on which an aye and nay vote was asked and granted by a rising vote. The roll call was watched with marked atten- tion, and: frequent bursts of applause greet- ed accessions to one side or the other. Beltzhoover of Pennsylvania was the first to win applause by his aye vote, indicating that the Pennsylvanians were falling into line. Immediately after this, Blanchard of Louisiana was applauded as he voted aye, and showed that the Louisiana opposition to the bill was not intact. Mr. Cockran’s vote in favor of the bill brought out tu- multuous cheering. The climax of the dem- onstration was reached when the name of Mr. Wilson, author of the Dill, was call- ed, the democrats cheering vociferously, a final recognition of his leadership. Speaker Crisp asked that his name be called, and he answered in the affirmative.

The engineers of what is known as the Short Line Improvement Company have | located a new trunk line that will touch | Hazleton, Pa., on its way between the west | and New York city. Some time ago the work of surveying in the stretch of coun- try back of Mud Run was begun, extend- | ing in the direction of the Lehigh coal re- gion Gelds. While the survey was being made in the | direction mentioned, another corps of en- | gineers were working to the northwest, and recently they finished as far as a sta- tion on the Pennsylvania railroad below Rock Glen, known as Sugar Loaf. On the east side the survey has been made to Stockton Junction, and there the Short Line ends. At this point the new road will connect with the Delaware, Susquehanna | and Schuylkill and run on the south edge j of Hazleton through to Derringer, where the Delaware, Susquehanna and Schuyi- kill will construct a short branch toe con- nect again at Sugar Loaf. The fact is that | the Deiaware, Susquehanna and Schuylkill | 48 a connecting link for this great road be- ; tween Pittsburg and New York city. After leaving Sugar Loaf the road will Parallel the Pennsylvania to Nescopetk Junction, and will cross the tracks of the ‘orthern Central at that point and rum across to Berwick, the river being spanned by a large iron bridge. After leaving Ber- wick the new line will extend to a point | where a connection will be made with the | Central Pennsyivanta and Western (Wilkes- barre and Western) at Orangeville. From Orangeville to Watsontown, a distance of thirty miles, the Wilkesbarre and W; which road has been acquired by the new company, will be used. From Watsontown the road will cross the river to White Deer and run along the White Deer creek, tap- — Muncy, Montgomery and Montours- ville. After reaching Williamsport the road egain crosses the river and makes almost @ straight line through the rich agricultural county to Mill Halil, thence to Bellefonte. Here is made the connection with the Beech Creek railroad, which is now rapidly push- irg its line from Gozzam, in Clearfield county, to Pittsburg. The new road and its connection will tap five-sixths of the bitu- | minous coal fields in the state of Pennayl- Vani On the east side of Hazieton the new line will connect at Stockton Junction, near the lumber yard, then will go down through old | Buck mountain and past Lowryto' to the Lehigh river, crossing the river by a bridge that will reach trom one mountain to the other. From there the road will run on to Stroudsburg and there connect with the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western rail- road through to New York cil ——— e+ Petition of Canal Bondholders, A petition was filed in the equity court at Hagerstown, Md., Tuesday, by the trus- tees of the bondholders of the and Ohio canal, asking the court to extend | the time of the experimental existence of the canal's affairs to ten years instead of | four, as determined by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia.
