New Yonx, Nov. 2.—[Special Telegram to the Bee.]—Nclson J. Waterbury, r., is coun- sel for plaintiff in an action to recover some- thing like half a million dollars which was left unclaimed in Brooklyn twenty years ago, and which has been accumulating at com- pound interest in the treasury of New York ver since. 1n 1819 the colonel of an English iment was ordered from Great Britain to Canada, and he took with him his two moth- erless bo; win and William, and when his regiment was ordered back to England a few years later he placed the boys in charge of a French Catholic priest at Amherstburg, Ontario. The children were to remain with the priest and to be educated by him. After that they were to return to England. They remained in school for two orthree years, then ran away and were never heard of aftorward by their father, who exhausted every means to _dis- cover what had become of them. He died soon after his loss. In after years it was learned that Edwin went to Michigan, where all trace of him _was lost. William, however, came to Brooklyn, lived alone, and was known to his neighbors us a half mad miser. He was supposed to be a Frenchman becanse he spoke English with French accent and also slightly altered the spelling of his name. Iu 1867 William died without issue, so far as known. He left an estate valued at 500,000 and willed $20,000 of it to his brother Edwin, whose name he spelled correctly, and whom he had not seen since theirescape from Amberstburg. Nearly as much more money wwas bequeathied to friends and servants. The remainder was left 1o found an orphan asy- lum. ‘Becanse of some technical formalities in the execution of the will, the court sct it _aside and the money was locked up by the authoritics. Recently, Kenealy, of the Herald, hearing of this money and finding that _the name of the wealthy Brooklynite was the same as his own, wrote home to England for information aud received in reply what he_considered to be incontrovertible proof of relationship to the dead man. Ho placed the matter in the hands of Waterbury and hopes to_securo the money, There ara two other brothers of Kenealy, who will sharo the moncy if the suit, is successful. They are Alexander, & Philadclphia newspaper man, end Maurice, ho is a journalist and is now’ somewhere in the west. A. J. Kenealy is the son of the famous Dr. Kenealy who defended the Tich- borne claimant. S JEFF'S LAST DAYS. The Leader of the Lost Cause Ap- Y proaching the Stix.

The Resolution Apt to Cause Strife— Air Brakes Favored for Stock Cars—The Next Mceting Place Undecided. End of the Convention. KAxsAs Ci1y, Mo., Nov. 2—[Special Tele- gram to the B —Such a large number of the cattlemen returned to their homes last night and this morning that the attendance at the third day of the convention was compara- tively small. When the session began, short- ly after 10 o'clock, there were only about twenty-five ob hand to keep the oratorical ball in motion. The pleasant weather induced a great many of the visitors to tuke advan- tage of the geuerous opportunities offered for sight seeing. Several carriage loads left the Coates house curly in the morning and either stopped at the exposition or the fat stock show. The hour before the closing of the session vesterday afternoon devoted to general discussion. The different phases of pleuro- pneumonia were thoroughly shaken up and given a good airing. When the convention was opened shortly after 10 o'clock to-day, Dr. Ames, chairman of the committee on reso- lusions, reported concerning the oleomarga- rine resolution, as follows: Whereas, The scveral interests which compose the convention and the association under whose auspices it mects would be placed in antagonistm by discussion and action upon questions affecting oleomargarine legis- lation by congress and its usefulness for effecting other and more primary objects be thereby impaired; therefore Resolved, That it is_inexpedient to discuss or take action upon either of the resolutions in regard to such logislation submitted to the convention, and that they be laid upon the table. The report seemed to meet with the hearty approval of the members, for & unanimous and ringing “aye” followed the call for a vote on the adoption of the report. The com- mittoe further reported that votes of thanks were due Commissioner of Agriculture Col- man and Dr. Salmon for their able papers touching the pleuro-pneumonia question, and the legislative committee for untiving efforts to pass the Miller Cary bill. The committee further reported that the resolution offcred yesterday by Mr. Eder, of Kansas, was t00 broad t0 be discussed at’ the present convention, as time could not be afforded to consider it. The committee therefore made a report of “inexpedicnt to act on the ques- tions.” Mr. Eder arcse and said: “I am satisfied with the report of the committce on resolutions. This matter has been seriously considercd by the cattle men of Kansas. I am prepared to defend _the statement mado in the resolution, but gm also willing to stand by the committee.” Mr. L. S. Coffin, of Towa, introduced a resolution asking that the convention con- sider the importance of doing away with the old style of brake on stock cars, and showing the importance of introducing air brakes on cattle cars, The resolution wus adopted. The committee also adopted the resolution introduced by Mr. Clay, of Chicago, late yes- terday afternoon. 1t was as follows: Whereas, All that the dairymen have in the past_aslh dwas_that oleomargarine and all substitutes or imitations of butter for sale should be real ch quired by law o be so offered in racter and under its true name; and s, We now have a law to that ef- fore be it od, That these substitutes for butter te aguinst the products of fat asked for by intelligent and fair vmen, and we respectfully ask imination be discontinued. iserimin stock not minded dai that such di; The committee on transportation desiring more time in which to prepare its report, vas i until the instructed to repe -President Smith, in a short speech, said tha the bu: s of the convention had been finished hewould make a motion to ad- journ sine die in order that the business meeting might be held at once before final adjournment.

New Onieaxs, Nov. 2—A dispatch to merchants here from Planter Saccasagne, of Tigerville, says: ‘‘Strikers shot four of my laborers this morning from ambush. I have telegraphed the governor for troops. Please sco that they get off at once.” Tho Washing- tom artillery were informed of the tenor of the dispatch and the officers are awaiting the action of the governor. Yesterday forty-five white laborers were sent to the Saccasagne plantation to fill the places of the strikers, but whether the four men umbushed and shot this morning were among this number or of those remaining upon the plantation is not known he A special to the Times-Democrat from Tigerville says, regarding the shooting, that no one was killed, but soveral persons were slightly hurt. Allis quict, as tho new men have left. News received from the sugar plantations below New Iberia shows that everything is quict, but work is_suspended or_nearly so. Dispatches from many plantations up the river indicate that hands are striking all over and in many places have been given tho alternative of returning to work or leaving the place. Trouble is expected to ensue when an effort is made in a day or two to force the strikers to leave the plantation. gt The Fiftieth Anniversary. Loxpox, Nov. 2.—The fiftieth anniversary of the mechanics institute was celebrated at Nottingham this evening. The duke of St. Albans presided.

The ultimato object of education mhkt be to teach men to reason and think for. themsel instead of getting opinions from the newspapers. He dep ated the flood 'of talk in England, where, he said, there was a morbid craving for speeches, which was like the ving for other stimulants not wholesome. He made more speeches during his residence in Eng- land than he would be allowed to_make_dur- ing the remainder of his life in New York, where orators were tutned loose only once in four years. The efféet of this wasto compel people to think for themselves. Reret gy An Inter-State Decision. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—The inter-state com- merce commission has decided the case of the boards of trade of Farmington, North- field, Farrbault and Owatonna (Minnesota), against the Chieago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway company. The plaintifts, who are located on the Iowa and Minnesota division of the road, complained that the rate on ‘wheat to Milwaukee and Chicago was double that from stations on the river division, which is to all intents and purposes a pars lel line. The commission holds that the con plaint is well founded, and that while a re: sonable differential rate may be allowed on the Io and Minnesota division on account of gr i and probable larger ex- pense of transportation and greater strin- geney of competitive forces on the river divi- sion, the diff above the present rate on the river division should not exceed 2! cents per 100, s large, the weather good, and the track in excellent condition.

Quad's Experience in Chicago— He Blows in $30. Detroit Free Pres: You read about the bunko game every day or two,but do youknow what itis? Something was said in a Chicago paper the other day about my being bunkoed in that city a couple of weeks ago. I deny the allegation in the anost eigorous manner. I can take the reporter who wrote that item by the heels and make him wish in about a minute that he had been born ahundred years earlier or later. It is the basest Slander—the meanest campaign seandal —the boldest falsehood since 1492, Before proceeding further let 1n that the word bunko i ymetime: spelled bunco. You can have it eithe way you like, but the game is nearly ys the same,and all victims feel the me. Play the bunko game on me! Why, I knew that game thirty years ago, and 1 claim to be able to tell a bunko-steerer from a lawyer a whole block away., In- deed, I've had bunko men drop around to tell me that I was the very last man on the face of the earth they'd think of running up against. 1 might be roped in with a gold brick, but on bunko— never. 1 had just come out_of the Tremont house and turned up State street, when a good looking young fellow halted me, extended his hand for a shake and ex- claimed; “Why, Quad, old fellow, how are and how are all the folks in Detroit I smiled. I smiled because I knew he was a bunko steerer. Ho had got my name and town from the hotel register, after the usual fashion. But 1 shook his hand and replied that I was_pretty. well, and that Detroit was daily improv- ing.” What's the use of trying to crush abunko steerer into a lifeless muss without a moment’s warning. Besides, I wanted alittle fun, and I knew he was a bunko steerer—knew itaswellasI knew that T was in Chicago. “I'm awful glad to see any one from Detroit,” he continued. *I suppose you see father almost every day?” I assured him that I saw his father semi-daily, and that the old gent was looking as happy as a Hubbard squash at fair time. g.hla seemed to relieve his intense anxiety on that point and he invited. me to have a cigar. No man who can get a cigar at_the expense of a bunko steerer should refuse it. We entered a gilded den of deviltry,de- voted te the sale of tobacco and got our weeds, and as we sauntered up State street we seemed a band of brothers. I ou, " | know what hts next move would bo and was ready for him, We had not gone two blocks when he halted and suhf: “‘Ah! this call to mind. I bought a lottery ticket the other day and it drew a little prize. This mustbe the place whore they cash it. Yes, this is the place.” I congratulated him on his luck. T told him I had been buying lottery tickets since the year 1 and never yot struek a prize. His next move would be to ask me tofi up stairs with him and got the cash, I've seen the game played fifty times, you know. By the way, come up with mé a minute,” he said, as he looked at his ticket. *“These fellows may be all right, or they may be full of tricks. Atany rate, I'd like a friend along.” I went. Who's afraid of a bunko- steerer? I was chuckling to myself all the time, and was willing to give the fellow a little more rope. We ascended to the third floor and entered an office. There wore two well dressed men in there. They didn’t seem to know my friend, and he looked around asif he hadn’t been in that very room five hun- dred times heforo. *This—this ticket hit a—a prize yes- terday, diddn't it?” he asked as he pro- duced the paper “Yes, sir—3$350," was the I'Op\)' “Jim, give the gentleman his money.’ It was counted out. Then the gentle- men explained to me that they had daily drawing, and cashed prizes at once. That's the way the bunko gamo is always played, and nobody need bo taken in. The tickets wore $2 each, and thero was to be a drawing right away. If I wanted to invest they would”’—, “Iinvest! Rin;: in on me an old chest- nut of that color | Take me for a gran- ger from Poscy County! But, after a little reflection I thought I'd try it. It might be all right after all.” While they looked like bunko men, one can’t always judge by looks. I invested $6 and hita prize of 810. I was $4 ahend, and I’d give them the grin and walk out, I—. But if I invested the 810 I'd probably hit 820, and-and-well, I inves- ted the $10. I1lost it, but was assured that I'd have better luck next time. I knew that as well as they did. No bunko man can teach me anything. I invested $10 more and lost. Then I put in $30 and lost. Then I remembered that I had agreed to meet a man at the First National Bank at 10 o’clock, and I bade them good morning and tripped rayly down stairs, stopping at the door long enough to ask them if it was a good day for suckers. Now, that’s all there was to it, and that’s all the foundation that Chicago paper had for saying thatT was bunkooed. I identified the steerer the moment he addressed me. I knew the office up stairs was a snide the minute I entered it. I knew the drawing was a fraud, and therefore the fellows had no show. Oh, yes, I left some money up there, but when a man sees three young men trying hard to earn an honest living, ho's pizen mean if he won't help ‘em a little. Seteciigs The Genius of the Railroad King. Edward T. Peters, in the Forum_for November: Able and popular writers dwell with great omphasis on the vast serviceswendered by certain men in in- creasing production or economizing distribution, I think, however, thata tendency to hero worship may be dis- cerned in their readiness to measure the services of such men by their sue- coss in accumulating wealth. One mlght think, for example, from some of theis statements that the reduction which has taken Eln(‘c within the past twenty years in the charges for trans- hortation between the wes and the sc board had been mainly, if noi wholly, duo to & marvelous capacity for direct- ing railrond business possessed and ex- ercised by such men as Jay Gould and the late Commodore Vinderbilt; where- as the obvious truth is,that a number of causes have been operating within the quarter of a contury which must have led to a large cl pening of Lruusamrtu— tion under any ordinarily eflicient management. The hom ad law, enacted in 1862, placed a high premium on the settlement of the public land states and territories, while thousands of miles of railroad, built mainly at the public expenso, facilitated access to the vacant lands, and furnished the settlers with & means of marketing their pro- duce. These subsidized roads in the remote west sesved as fecders to the main trunk lines further east, and, in connection with the general growth of population, so increased their business that it became an easy matter to do that business at a smaller relative cost. In the meantime, a revolution in the man- ufacture of steel enormously lessened the expense arising from the wear of rails, while improvements in the con- struction of locomotives and rolling stock resulted jn further economics. Itis to such causes, rather than to any phenomenal power of management on the part of the few men, that we owe the bulkk of the reduction which has taken place in the prico of transporta- tion; and, if weaccept the sort of man- agement that has been directed to “freezing out? or ‘“squeezing out,” small shareholders and small corpora- tions, and to keeping the price of trans- portation as far above its cost ‘‘as the traffic would bear,” it is not to extraor- dinary management, but mainly to such causes s those pointed out in the last il oh, that the great Wall str } identified with railroad inve ments owe their o rin. Tt may be conveniece to cert: our Goulds and Vanderbilts w tributes of demi-gods by W counting for phenomena th nnot otherwise, be squared with their own S0 and economic theories; but un- yrejudiced inquivers after the truthar Justified in sceking a less thaumaturgi- eal explanation; and when it liesns close at hand as in the yresent ir they may be purdouned for giving it the prefe W minds to iuv h the at- Wy of 1 t C ce.
