Cnicaco, Nov. 13.—[Speocial Telegram to Tae Bee.]—The guessers are again at work in regard t the course the Rock Island road will pursue in opposing the Union Pacific-Northwestern deal. Three times to- day your correspoudent was assured that at least a temporary deal has already been mwade with the Southern Pacitic by the Rock Island. As already shown, the official proclamation of the Rock Island that their Gulf extension would stop indefinitely at Fort Reno is incorrect. The extension is now more than one hundred mile= south of Fort Reno and lacks but 180 miles of a connection with the Southern Pacific. This 130 miles is being coverod as fast as a large force of men can lay the rails and ties. The fact that President Cable wished it understood that po further extension woula be made beyond Fort Reno 1s corroborative of the circumstance showing that something beyond the mere wish 1o get to the gulf is contemplated, Should the Rock Island form an alliauce with the Southern Pacific it will make a line to San K'rancisco longer by about 500 miles than the short line from Chicago. "o passengers in & hurry the line would ~ offer few inducements, but in freight the line could compete almost on even terms. Kor southern California, Mex- ico and Texas points the iine would in many cases ba the shortest route. Even those who believe the deal will be made with the South- ern acific tnink it is only temporary. The Colorado Midland connection with the Den- ver & 10 Grand Western and Central Pa- cific branch of the Southern Pacific, first published in these dispatches, has as many believers as of old. The routes being so widely separated, however, might both be kept Up. ‘The Southern Pacific woald prefer the southern one, in which it gets the long haal, but with both it would get & loaf and a half. General Manager St. John, of the Rock Isiand, has for the last four days been in tho Indian terntory. Nothing can be learned ot the object of his trip. It would most cer- tainly not be taken, however, on an ordinary matter. More especially it would. not have been taken if *the Gulf extension will stop at Fort Reno.” It would have been no surprise had the Rock Island made an attack upou the Union Pacific-Northwestern allisnce 1 to-day’s meeting of the general managers of the Inter-State Commerce Railway association. Not a word was said in connection with the mutter, however. The alleged cut in rates to Memphis by the Missouri Pacific was brought up aund referred to Chayrmun Walker. It will be remembered thavthe Missouri Pacific was fiued §200 by the Trans- Missour: association and refused to ;ily. clauming itself innocent of the charges, The other business transacted at the meeting was simply routine, except a change in the miol- mum weights of hay in car lots.

Doolittle gave the methods of the factory, and compared the value of milk convertod into cheese and milkk converted into buiter, stating that the former was tho moro protitable by from 10 to 15 per cent. Tho question was warmly discussed, but very fow agrecing with Mr. Doolittle in the latter's assertions. Jonn Boyd, of Chicago, thought that good milk made Into good butter was as_valuable, or more so, than milic made iuto cheose, e vatue of skimmed milk and buttermilk as food for young stock was variously esti- mated. Prof. Muurael, of Chicago, dis- cussed “The Relations of Patrons to the Creamery and Cheese Factory,' and showed that absolute justice could not be done to in- dividual patrons under existng circum- stances, aud the only solution was a carefal test of the value of the milic product. L. R. Bingham, of Estherville, read an interest- ing paper on *“The Dairy Interests of lowa,” giving the bistory leading up through tiio varlous stages of dairy progress in lowa, He claimed that there was yet far too much loss from inferior products, - inswflicient feeding and careless handling of dairy cattie and products. ‘Chis evening State Dairy Commissioner Sterman spoke on *News From the Fiold,” portant statistics that there wore s 1n the atate, 164 cheese fac- e creameries of Iowa in 576,543 pouuds of butter und the cheese factories 4,406,098 pounds of cheese, tho total value of both products being worth $16,779,235. Ho was followed by an interest- g specch by Henry Wallace, editor of the Towa Homestead. The Sabbath Convention. Des Moixes, Ia., Nov. 13.—[Special to Tne Bee.)—At the morning session to-day of the Stato Subbath association convention the secretary, Charles R. Huat, read his an- nual report, in which he called attention to the action of the executive council in ap- proving the circulation of a petition to the United States congress asking the passage of w Subbatn rest law. Nearly 800 of these vetitions had been seat to the pastors of various denominations, and to these have been secured nearly 3,000 signatures. About 15) signatures had also been secared to the petition for laws brohibiting all unnecessary labor on_the Sabbath. The secrotary also suggested tho advisability of conducting a Savoath observance department at each ot the Chautauqua assemblies in the stave, and that this subject should be_taken up by the association. A paper by L. S. Coffin on the feasibility of railway companics obsorving §the Sabbath ‘was read. Mr. Coffin held thut the question of transporta- tion was, a8 & matter of fact, one of gain, Quick transit for_all freight is what the shipper desires. Yet tho point is fouad only on Lwo classes of shipments, live stock and perishable goods. As to live stock, the speaker saia thers was u law that prohibited the keeping of swock 1n a car for more than twenty-eicht hours continuously, and that it would be no greater hardship for shippers to uuload their stock for u stop of twelve hours than for watering and feeding, He thought the time would come when no trains wouid be run on Sunday, either for_stock, verish- able goods or passengor travel. J. C. Brock- smit, anditor of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern railway, made reply 10 the proposition set forth’ by Mr. Coftin, tuking for the most part the opposite view, and @ very interesting discussion ensued, in which the main phase of the question was alao introduced, In the sfternoon the foilowing offlc were elected: President, A. ol Reml vico-resudents, first district, C.

I have yet to visit tho happy, happy land where the servant girl problem does not exist as the prin- cipal source of domestic gloom, but here it is cortainly to bo found at ils worst. It is utterly impossible to keep a girl, saysn Minnoapolis exchange. The female half of the population, while large and growing, is still ina i slo measure the smaller half, oung women of every dogree aro ghor than they would foteh Allegheuies.” This may not rallant, and yet it ought te be valua- ble to such young women in the enst who foel themselves unappreciated. cases are counted in hundreds whero a | young girl has entered a cook or cham- bermaid and thereafter remained as daughter-in-law. It is highly unprofit- ablo to foteh girls from eastern eities. 1f they are worth their salt they go off and get married, often vefore they have earned the price of their railway fares, Servants’ wages ave 100 per cent higher in Montaua than in New Tne cooks on the railway dining cars receive $60 a month.

The way to get a Chinaman is to tell another ina- man you want one. He will spare you all the trouble and expense of dealing with an employment ageney.

She cheer- fully retir i his favor. About a w later, when the officer and his wife sat down to dinner, they observed that the heathen “in attendance upon them was not the heathen who had been serving them for the pust week, hut an entirely new and different one. They also observed that the dinner be- fore them was much superior to the dinners their late heathen had supplied They presently inquired of vhe ne heathen what had become of their old one. “Ho no good,” answered John. ‘‘He some washee, but no cook: Wing Ting tell him go and he say me cowe.’” ekt AN ENGINE PUSH-OF-WAR. Two Locomotives in Memphis Trying to Shove One Anotaer. An incident rarely seen on a railroad was witnessed yesterday afternoon at the corner of Calhoun and Tennessee streets, says the Memphis Avalanche. It caused the passengers on two strect cars gome annoyance, tempered with amusoment. ‘When car 82, of the Jackson Mound park line, reached the crossing at the time named it was found blocked by two freight trains, with the two engines facing each other. Neithor of the trains made any motion to move, and the car driver,whose name is Thomas, inquired of a brakeman the cause of the delny. 5. The answer surprised him: “Well, they | met on the same track; both of the en- | gineors claim tne right of way, and neither one will back down.” At this juncture the engineer of one engine pulled his lever and attempted to force the other train back, but the offort wus unsuccessful. Then the engi- neers argued the matter, and one sug- gested that they were keeping the crossing blocked, to which the other re- plied that ne didn’t care if it was kept blocked for an hour. Then the first engineer made another attempt to run the opposing train back, and again failed, whereupon he backed his engine a few feet and attacked the enemy with arunningstart, but in vain. It was a battle of the giants, in which both were equally powerful, The engineer then signaled an engi- neer who was on his engine in the yard south of the crossing fo: stance. He responded and ran his engine up in the rear of the north bound train. Then both engineers started th engines to- gether, and by their combined strength the south bound train was pushed back, and the crossing was cleared, Street car 32, going south, was de- layed fully fifteen minutes by the con- test, and cur 29, going ‘south, driven by orge Lee, was delayed about five miri- utes by the singular contest. Both the car drivers reported the occurrence aud the scene was witnessed by a number of passengers, The drivers say that from what they could hear from the railroad men that the engineer of engine 599 was in fault. The number of the other engines or the names of the engineers could not be as- certained. —_—— A DANGEROUS DRUG. . One Should Beware in Meddling With Cocaine, Cocaine, as is now well known, isa very valuable but an exceedingly dan- geroua drug, and M. Dufournier has lately published in the Archives de Medecine the remarkable results of his investigations into its use, says the St. James Gazette, Cases where acci- dents haye occurred are very numerous, and there 18 hardly a surgeon using cocaine who has not had occasion to witness them, . @As curly as in 1887 De. Mattison pub- lished the account of forty such in- stances, and the roll of victims who have lost their lives from a dose caine has now reached as high as . In a large number of cases it has given rise to a species of poisoning, from which the patient usually recovers. Among the phenomena ghavacterizing this form of poisoning ono observed in putient of Dr. K. Bradley is worthy of special mention. This patient was taken with facial paralysis, from which he did not recover for six months, Other symptoms are ballucinations, great excitement and cerebral agita- tion; and, tinally, Dr. Leshie Calloghan in one case saw the entire body covered by & scarletiniform rash.

Patey in Rossini’s “Quis est home,” which, of course, like very nearly all the numbers in the programme, was encored. Mr. | Lioyd sang the graceful and expressive tenor song from Mr. Thomas’ “Esmer- alda,” O vision entrancing,” and gave as a worthy pendant to 1t, Mr. Clay’s “I'll sing the songs of Araby.” Mr, Leo Stern, one of the most promising of the young violincellists now before the publie, played, not without certain ex- | aggerations of style, a clever and effec- ‘tive “‘Saltarello’ of his own, and other { picces, among them an arrangement of of that.nocturne of Chop scems to have suggested a fami! sage in Gounod’s “*Nazareth.’ order of the programme been slightly varied, the two works would have stood in startling juxtaposition, for the song, | sung by Mr. Burrington Foote, was 1n- cluded in the first part.
