1HE OMAHA DAILY BEK: SATURDAY, JULY 13, 1889 JARE KILRAIN WAS DRUGGED. His Friend Oharley Mitchell Gave Him the Dose. SOMETHING TO DEADEN HIS PAIN. No Dirty Work About It—Sullivan Tired of Being Chased by Shoriffs and Breathes a Threat. Meroly a Pain Killer. BALTIVORE, July 14— [Special Telegram to “T'ne Bee.)—The statement that Kilrain was @rugged finds support among the Baltimore sports who witnessed the fight, but the mo- tive seems to have been to doaden the pain rather than to cause his defeat. In the third round, after Sullivan delivered his tromen- dous blow over Kilrain's heart, Mitchell held to his mouth a sponge dipped in a bucket,and after that Jake fought us in a trance. Mitch- eli purchased in Baltimore a drug which acts directly on the beart and benumbs the mervous sensibilities. The blow over the heart causod a slowing up of the heart's action, and after administering a dose, whisky to exhilarate the heart's action should have beon given. A Baltimore physician says: “Kilrain was over trained, and 1 beliove the rapid re- duction in his welight was not effected by b hard work, but by powerful cathartic medi- elne. After those tremendous blows on the beart I don’t think he will ever bo the sume man and certainly snould not enter the ring agam.” Tt is understood Jake is to be iven @ lu- erativo agency for a brewery here. Jobn L. at Ohicago. ©Cnt0a60, July 12.—[Special Telogram to Tun Bee.]—John L. Sullivan arrived here sboutnoon. Hennd hia backer, Johnson, wero last seen streaking it across the Twenty-second street railroad traoks, hav- og stepped off the Chicago and eastern Illi- ois limited train, which arrived in Chicago b 11:80 o'clock this morning. John L. and his companion were afraid that one of Gov- ernor Lowry's telegrams had reached Chi- ongo, but the fears of the bruiser and Mr. Johnson were not realized, and when the two slipped from the car none buv brakemen and witchmen were about. The two mon un- oticed passed down Tiwenty-second stroet and disappeared from view. Sullivan and Jolrnn left Nashville last night just in time % ivold the sheriff, A reporter made inquiry of the conductor reyrarding John. “Bless your soul, man,” he said, “Sullivan ‘wasn't on this train,” But the réporter learned otherwise. The porer who had ministercd to the pugilist, lacked his boots and received his $5 tip was yery talkative. Sullivan und Johnson, the orter said, got un the tram at Evansvillo at 1a.m t-day. " The big man was both miad ared. —— it,"" the porter heard him say, “I'm sick of being arrested, and the next man that lays his hands on me will et his head smashed.” At every stop of thoe train Sullivan would wake up and anxiously inquire if thero wore any officers aboard. He told the porter that af ho valued his life not to breaths to a per- son about, his being aboard, and he haa a long consultation with the conductor,which doubt- less explains the ticket puncher's reluctanco 8t giving away his passengers. Sullvan, the porter said, was dritking to some extent, but he was at no time drunk. Ho waoted, he said, to keco his head about him 80 as to -avoid the officers. Muldoon escaped arrest at Nash- ville by playing virtuous indignation, declariog to the policemen that he was o prize fighter and that he was a gentle- man, Muldoon says Kilrain wus overtrained and at least ten pounds too light. He Taeried in Chicago. CmioAGo, July. 12.—Sullivan remained in * Chicago to-night and arranged to leave for New. York to-morrow at ‘9 a..m. by the Grand Trunk.

An Important Ruling By the Railroad Commisston—A Strange Oage of Haltucination—Other Hawkeye Nows The “Q" Must Take the Froight. Des Morxes, Ia, July 12.—[Special Telo- gram to Tie Bre [—<The rallroad commi sioners to-day renderod a decision of yroat importan nd one that is likely to af Inter-state rates between Chicago, St. Louls and Towa cities. Several months ago the mond Jo, the Mississippi river steamboat filed compiaint with the cominission- ers, charging that tho Chicago, Burlington & Quinoy road was discriminating against it by refusing to take froight from 1t con- signed 1o points in Towa along the road, un- less the freight charges on such consign- ments were propaid by the steamboat cor- pany. Prior to March 30, 1859, the railroad took the freight, as it did from other car- riers, and settied for it afterwards, but since then it has Gemanded propayment of charges. The steamboat company ap- pealed to. the commissioners, and a copy of thewr complaint was sent to Goneral Munager Riploy, of the “Q." He admitted the fact, Bt praced in defense that his rond had a competitive line running down tho river, and ought not be compelled to malke a transportation with the steamboat company against its own interest, and that there was no reason why it should be expected to advance money for the steam- boat line or take its freight unless prepaid. After somo specitio instances of refusal were roported to the comaissionors, they took ac- tion to-day, aud now say in reply that while A transportation company has the right to demand pavinent in advance, yet the right is almost universally waived, and to make an exception now 18 to discriminate unjustly, aud therefore the railroad company is noli- fied that it must trest all alike. The effect of | this decision will be to give St Louis very low rates with Iowa, since shippers can use the river to IKeokuk, Bur- lington, Davenport or any river town, and then finish the trip by rail. Chicago will have to meet the St. Louis rate, and thus in- ter-state rates will indirectly be raduced, so that all Towa cities will bo more or less bene- fitted by the change. Points For Western Haymen. Forr Donar. la., July 12.—[Special to Tar Ber.|--D. A. Kent, secretary of the Towa Hay Shipper's association, has issued a cir- cular letter to western hay raisers in which he says that according to all reports there is a very heavy growth of timothy and prairie wherever these grasses arc grown for the market. Coutinuing, he says the New Eng- land and Middle Atlantic states have a very heavy crop of tumothy, which will cut off eastern shipments for next year and require the western crop fo be cousumed largely in the western markets. ‘The adyice of eastern receivers and consumers of hay to the hay- men of the west to put up all they can is condemned, it bewg the obvious purpose of such advice to make hay cheap for the con- sumer by a large crop. If farmers and shp- pers will consult their best mteroests, instead of putting up a great gorge of hay like the crop of last year, tney will put up a few tons of firat-ciass hay. W'here is more profit in ten tons of fancy hay than thero is in thirty tons of the poor grudes. If the people of Iowa, Kansus, Minnesota and Nevraska had put up not more than one-haif of the hay they did last year they would have realized double tae woney they aid on their crops and with only half the labor. A Girl's Strange Hallucination. Das Morxes, Ia., July 12.—[Special Tele- gram to Tur BEE.]—A strange case of hal- lucination is reported from Parkersburg, noar which place tho daughter of a German minister by the name of Paul, is wasting away over the insane ides that her father is dend. A few weeks ago she dreamed that he was killed by arunaway, and last Friday tho family horse did run away and smashed up & bicycle which was m the buggy, but tho father was not thero at all. The gl saw tho nccident and mmagines that the bicycle was her father, and insists that he is dead, although several wecks havo elapsed sinco the smash-up. She scems all right on other matters but this strango hallucination. Aslcd to Pay the Notes. WaATERLOO, Ta., July 12.—[Special Tele- gram to Trg Bee.]—Cole Grant and A. W.

This will be resisted in the conrts. There aro twenty of the notes, aggregating about $3,000. St. John Stumping the State. Warsnroo, Ia, July 12.—Ex-Governor J. P. St. John, of Kansas, was in the city to- day and left this afternoon for Muson City. He is engaged in working up the third party strength in this state for the fall campaign. He believes that owing to disaffection in lowa over the railroad legislation, a light increase of the third party vote will result in the election of a democratic governor this fall, and the plan 15 to organize the third party forces thoroughly und early in the campaiga.

Congress failed” t§ give Idaho an enabling act tho same as the other territories, but there was such # strong sentiment in favor of statehood thitt the governor called for a convention. This was after he had boen assured by mombots of congress that a good constitution ratified by the peoplo would se- cure admission early during tho noxt ses- sion, and also the payment of the expenses of tho convention. The chiot diMculty likely to arise is upon the question of suffrage. The Mormons formerly hold the bulance of power, throwing their vote to the ~party thought to bo the most available for their uses, Eive years a0 the passago of the testoath cut them off. As o lst rosort, hundreds of Mormons with- drew from the church last fall and voted, suoccoding in Bingham county in electing partof their choice of the ticket. The fact that the Mormons are colonizing portions of Idabo makes this such a dangorous eloment thut the anti-Mormon ropublicans and demoorats of the convention insist that they must be shorn of power to do-evil. This question will come up in the conveation to-morrow and excite a lively discussion. Woman suffrage prohibition, “governing corporations an trusts will also be considered. —— THOSE RICHMOND LETTERS. James Redpath Tells How They Came to be Written. New Yorx, July 13.—|Speoial Telogram to Te Bre.]—A local paper publishes n dis- patch from Beauvoir, Miss., In which James Redpath adds some information to the “Arthur Richmona” discussion. Mr. Red- path, who is & guest of Jofferson Davis, was formerly managing editor of the North Amorican Review. He says that he read the manuscript ot the “Arthur Richmond’ letters and that the first of the series was written by William Henry Hurlbut. The latter wont to Europe before the Bayard letter was printed and hence Allen Thorn- dike Rice, to keep up the sensation the first rticlo croated, invited other writers, among them “Gail Hamilton,” Don Piatt, and a newspaper imitawr of Junius (Mr. Redpath could not recall his name) to contribute. Senator Ingalls was invited, but no article was publishod from his pen. Tho only {riendly-spirited letter—the one addressed to Thurman—was sent from London by Rice and bears internal ovidence of his style. On his return home Rice was urgod either to get a democratic “‘Richmond" to attack representativo republicans, or to drop tho series, as the selection of democrats only for targets was injuring the reputation of the Review for impartiality. Llr. Rice was to0 earnest a republican 1o consent to attack representativo members of his party, 80 the letters were discontinued. ot An Octogenarian’s Marital Break.

Cnroaco, July 11.--[Special Tologram to Tre Bee.]—A new complication has arisen inbuliion rates. The decision of the axecu- tive board of the Interstate Commerce Rail- way association some time agc provided for a $13 rate from Utah and a $7 rate from Don- ver, a decrease of $3 fn the Utah rate. It now appears that the Missouri Pacifio and Atchison doa big builion business from Ei Paso, and they are dissatisfied with the northern rates. Chairman Walker, as arbi- trator of the association, heard arguments to-day from the Missouri Pacific, Atobison, Union Pacific, Rock Island and Burlington, relative to the proper basis of rates, the first two contending for an advarce in Utah rates and the last_three are gunning for a reduc- tion in the Kl Paso rate. Chairman Walker will render his decision in & fow days. A Betwer Feellng Manifest. CrrcAGo, July 12.—[Special Telegram to Tur Bee.]-—The adjournment of the Iater- State Commerce Railway association has brought witi 1t, a feeling, on the part of the ‘wostern roads, that the worst of the danger is passed. Before the meeting there was almost a certainty that disastrous rate wars would take the profit from trafllc, just at a time, too, when it would begin to be most profitable. Now there is perfeot coniidence that there will be o further reduction in rates, with the chances that the Northwest- ern and Sowthwestern complications will sopn be cloared up. The Live Stock Situation. CmioAco, July 13.—[Spectal Telegram to Tie Bee.|—The Wostern Freight associa- tion to-day took up the live stock situation with & view to the confinement to tho olosest possible limit of the roduced rates from Kan- sas City, mado by the Alton. 'The nction of the meeting was to establish rateeof 25 conts on cattle and hogs from Council Blufs and Omaha, 18 cents on paciimg Louso pro- ducts, and 234 cents on dressed beef. Sub sequently, at a meoting of the lines dires in interest, this action as further counsid- erea, and it was decided to_suspend, tempor- arily, any steps looking to a change in the rates from Council Biuffs and Omaha. A Haitroad Trust. July 12.—Tho Tribune this morn- The heavy pressure brought to bear upon those roads which have latoly re- nounced their all nea to the Interstate Commerce association by the “triangle” of New York banking firm to bring them baclk again into the combination has not met with the success that was anticipated. The pre- dictions made by the Tribune that the associ- ation could vo longer survive, as it had failed to accomptish tho great things its promoters claimed it would, found confirmation in the result of the “gentlomen’s” meeting yestor- day. Not only did none of the roads taat staid out in the beginning or have withdrawn from the organization since consent Lo come back, but the witndrawal of more roads which have become dissatistied with the re- straints placed upon them by the terms of the agreement, and weary of thedictatorsnip of the New York triangle, was only pre- vented by an abrupt adjournment of the *gentlemen’s” meeting without date. It 18 generally admitted that the associa- tion to all intents and purposes isdead, and the opinion is expressed that no attempt will be made to keep 1t m existence any longer. But stronger efforts will no_doubt be mado by the New Yorlk *‘trinnglo” to create in its place a gigantic railroad trust with Chair- man Walker at the head. The original in- tention of the Now York *‘triangle” was to create such a trust, but owing to the opposi- tion of many of the roads, they afterwards consented (o try their luck with the Inter- State Commerce Railway association.

The Terrible Rites Which Ave Paid to the “Iu la” Gods, The steamer Congo, says the Fondon Standard, briogs news from New Caln- bav of a most revolting sacrifice. It seems that o few months ago the old king of i2boe died, and, as is customary in that part of the country, the traders from New Calabar went up to pay their respects to the new monarch, The trad- ers were aware that for a short time after the old king’s death the “Iu In” rites are performed, but they thought that these weve over. The deceascd monarch’s name was Imphy, and to the horror of the English traders the ‘‘Iu Iu” coremonies were at their highest when they entered Ilboe Town. The rites had been in operation for about two months, and already forty people had been slain to the *‘lu Iu” gods. The old king then lying in a grave which had been dug for ham. The hole was a large one and deep. Lying in the same grave were nine of the king’s youngest wives, and their deaths had” been brought about in the most cruel manner. ch of the poor creatures had both her wrists and ankles broken, so that she could neither walk nor crawl. In this state, and suffering the most excruciat- ing pain, the unfortunate croatures were placed at the bottom of the grave, seven of them lying side by side. The body of the king was then laid on thewm in a transverse direction. The two remaining women were laid down by the side of the king, lying ex- actly like the monarch’s body. “No food or ‘water s given to the poor creatures, who were left 1n vhat position to die. Tt is suid that death did not, as a rule, take place for four or five days. Four men were stationed round the grave, armed with clubs, ready to knock back with 5 wpons anyof the women who, notwithstanding their maimed condi- e able to crawl to the side of the grave. In other parts of the town further human sacrifices were taking placo, Suspended from various trees wero the bodies of several men. These poor fel- lows were also enduring the most ago- nizing death. In ost instances holes had been bored thirough their feet just by the ankles. Through the holes ropes were drawn, and the men were then tied to a high tree. Their heoads were, of course, hanging downwurd. The men were there left to die. The traders, as they were proceeding along, were unwilling witnesses of a frightful sac 1 oxecution. They saw @ num- ber of natives in a group and went o the spot to see what was taking place. To their horror the white men suw a na- tive tied by the feetand ncok. The rope attached to the neck was thrown over atree in one direction and the rope attached to the foet was tiea to a tree in tho opposite direction. The ropes were then drawn tightly, and when the body was distended to its ut- most longth another native with hatehet siruck the neck and se head from the body. taken o the grave where the king wi lying, while the body was caten by the cannibal natives. The white men could do nothing to ston the barbarous prac- tices, us to interfere with these “‘relig- ious customs” would not be tolerated by the natives, and the lives of the traders would have been in peril. They there- fore made s quick a_rotreat from tho town as they could.
