Hot Blows Fellowing EacH Oftier Thick and Fast, 9 MR, CHARLTON IS WAXINE WRATHFUL, Dictates Caustic Lefters for the | Perusal of Chairmyn Attitude of the West- ern Road He Cuicaao, July 1.—Just why a majority of the western roads should join with the cast- eru lines in the hue and ery against the Chi 0 & Alton is a question that cannot easily bo answered except on tho theory that jeal- ousy seeks the overthrow of a successful rival. Many lines in the Western Passenger association have undoubtedly sought to give tho impression that they are in sympathy with the Alton while secrotly lending aid to compass its defeat. No other explanation can be given of the remarkable given by Chairman Finiey, which seem have 1o other object than to worst the Alton The blows aimed at the Alton follow one another i Fapid succession ‘Che latest came from Claivman Finley today in tho form of & circalur letter to tho | members reappe rtioning the expeuse of the associution for Jume. The cireular stated that in view of the chairman’s decision refus- ing the Alton the benefits of tho agreement that company could not be assessod for its | full proportion aud would only be asked to pay its share of the expenses for one-hulf the month of June. General Pussenger Agent Chariton sent back a reply that was calcu lated to make oy wince. He said tho Alton in the us- sociation or not and he demanded an immediate statement as to the standing of that road. If considerad o momber of the association he declared the road would uot puy one penny_ for the expenses of Jun2, but if still a member, tho chairman had no' au- | thority to remit one penny of its proportion of expenses. The letter scored Mr. Finley unmercifully for going outside of his pro: vince as chairman of the Western Passenger association in _order to harass the Alton and | gove him to understand that the Alton was amply able to vrotect its own interests whether inside or outside the association. All it askod was n clear understanding of its roturns with the Western Passenger associa- tion as defined by Chairman Finley in order that it might regulate its actious ns o mem- ber of or non-me nber of the assoviation. As yot the Alton considers itself a member in good standing and the minute that a rul- ing to the contrary is given its competitors will find that their only safe course is to “'stand from under." The theory has been advancod that Fin- ley is dominated by the board of commis sioners of the Western Traflic association, but nobody acquainted with the character and temper of the Alton management will be- lieve for a minute that it can be forced into the present agreement by any such tactics as have been adopted in this case.

Atwood, brothers, of this city, was begun tonight in the Methodist church. ‘e parties involved are Methodist brethern, with the exception of W. H. Atwood, who is a Presbyterian, but who agreed to abide by tho finding of the arbitrators. Rev. J. W. Rovinson, pastor of the local curch, sits as judge, and W. E. Smails, F. M. Smith, G. G. Martin, J. M. Shively of this city, and George Davis of Grand Island are the jury. Cham- berlain has for his counsel Rev. J. W. Shank and Attorncy Wagner of Omaha, For the plaintiffs Judge Fawcett and Dr. Maxfield of Omaha appear. Although both sides are willing to have a public hearing, Rev. Robiuson decided that it should be rictly private, everybody being excluded pt thoso directly involved. ‘Bhe wyesti- gation is progrossing behind closed doors. "The case was begun at 8 o'clock by the read- ing of the agrecments to the arbitration, which was followed by therending by Itev, Shank of a carefully prepared statement of Chamberlain's case. During the progress of the inquiry some stormy scenes took place between the brethren, and the point as to whether afidavits' from B. F. Allon of Salt Lake, the party from whom the real estate was bought and out of which deal the diMiculty has grown, should be admitted on evidenco agaiust ' the defendants, was strongly opposed by them since Allen was not present to_be cross-cxamined. At a luto hour tonight the trial is still in progress When it will be ended is not known, but it is thought the finding will bo arrived at and made public in & day or two. Chamberlain 15 @ Methudist minister who has preached the word in Pennsylvania for twenty-iivo cears. Two years ugo he spent the summe in Frewont and filled the pulpit of the chureh here during the absenco of the pas- tor. Atthattime A. L. Atwood was super- intendent of the Sabbath school, and the visiting dominie was soon after interestod by the Atwoods in & real estate speculation at Salt Lake. Since thut time there Lave been a score or more of deals between them, the last one being the sale of un interest in an option on o Seattle coal mine, for which Chamberlain paid the Atwoods &18,000. Chamberlain and his fricnds claim that Lo has been confidenced out of from 25,000 10 §42,000. Itis certain that the preacher is financially ruined by the deals, but whether through the Atwoods or real estate declines and injudicious investments remains 10 bo scen. He has loft only his residence property in Pennsylvania, having lost & 8,800 piece of property at Covington, Penn., brother's farm, his own and wife' daughter's inherited money, in all about §0,000 in cash. For this he has an abundance of experience, a few town lots in Salt Lakoe aud & part interest in which is claimed by the defendants s an option on the conl lands. The Atwoods claim th nave not defranded him and_say they will show thiat as the valuable option has not ex- pired and the real estate has not all been dis posed of Rey.
