All Associations Must Dissolve, and a Rate “’ar Is Quite Probable. Cincinnati, March 25.—-Ex-Attorney General Judson Harmon, in talking of the supreme court decision relative to the Transmissouri Freight association, expressed the belief that the opinion delivered would affect the Joint Traffic association and all kinds of railway pools. " “I do not see any other way of con- struing the decision,” sat? Judge Har— mon. “I have received y congratu- latory telegrams today and consider the victory a personal one for; me, be- cause I fought the case for .the gov- ernment. and was pitted against such legal talent as E. J. Phelps, James C. Carter and others who represented rail- roads interested. The decision is sweeping in its character, and I think that all pools will be affected like the Transmissouri organization, which is declared illegal.” St. Louis, March 24.——The decision of the United States supreme court against the Transmissouri Freight as- sociation has been freely commented upon here, and the consensus of opinw ion is that all associations must dis- band‘. General Solicitor Hagerman of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas rail- road says that every existing associa- tion must go, but that the rates will be maintained between the large roads upon unwritten agreements. This course, he says, is possible and neces— sary for the leading lines. The smaller lines may cut rates upon all traffic to a losing figure, but would inevitably go to_ the wall. Solicitor Blodgett 'of the Wabash as— serts that traffic agreements were good things for the public as well as the rail- roads, and that congress may be ex- pected to undo the hasty decision of the supreme court. Vice President Warner of the Mis- souri Pacific sees nothing but certain death, to the association in the court’s decision. This will force'new alliances upon the leading lines and work disas- ter to the smaller ones. While ship- pers will be benefited, it will be at the expense of the railroads. This will un- settle business, disturb values and ulti- mately place new burdens upon the whole people. Omaha, March 24.—Genera1 Solicitor Kelly of the Union Pacific railroad, commenting on the decision of the United States supreme court regarding joint trafiic agreements, said that, al- though there was no appeal and how- ever farreaching the decision might be, it was final. The Union Pacific, he thought, would take action today. Receivers Oliver IV. Mink and E. El- lery Anderson of the Union Pacific re- fused to express any opinions until they had read the decision of the court. They admitted that the action of the Chicago roads would have a farreach- ing effect and that a rate war was pos- sible if not probable. Acme Bicycle “lurks Burned. , Reading,’Pa., March 25,—The plant of. the Acme Bicycle works was burned today. The fire originated in the enam- eling room. Owing to the inflammable nature of the stock, the four story brick building was soon a mass of flames. All the valuable machinery was de- stroyed, making the total loss about $75,000, covered by insurance. The building contained material for about 5,000 bicycles. Burglar Shoots His Sister. Fort Smith, Ark., March 25.—Two men robbed the German Catholic con- vent and shot one of the sisters. Sis- ter Theresa was aroused by a noise in the kitchen and started to investigate. She was in the middle of the kitchen when a man crouching behind a. stove shot her in the back of the head. The bullet glanced from her skull and made only a scalp wound. He escaped. - Payment For Pneumatic Tube Franchise. Albany, March 25.—Senator Ford (Rep., N. Y.) today introduced in the senate the bill introduced by Mr. An- drews in the assembly, embodying .the views of Mayor Strong, providing that any pneumatic tube company laying mains in any city shall pay the city 3 per cent of its gross earnings or a. sum equal to $1 per 100 yards per year.

Sailed Away from the. City Is: I land Before the ’Police Could Board Her. Her Crew Suspected of Being the ‘Myster- ious Burglars Operating Along the Sound. ‘ The mys‘eriuus black sloop that has been prowling about. Norwalk harbor, Fairport, Southport. Stamford, Port Chester and other places along it e sound, for the last month, dropped an. chcr of City Island, Monday. ‘ The sloop’s crew consists of three men and a woman. Whenever the vessel makesits appearance in any hai- bor a series of daring robberies are committed, the lhievs making off with several thousand dollars’ worth of valuables. - , The police have tried in vain to trace the. culprits who are continually burg- luizns the houses at South Norwalk, and some are of the opinion that the crew of the black sloop are responsible for the numerous robberies along the shore. It is a noticeable fact, however, that as soon as the vessel sails away the burglaries stop. The towns along the shore from New York to Bridgeport have been visited by the sloop, but no one has ever been seen to leave the vessel, although a woman andthree men have been no ticed on deck from time to time. When the City Island police lca'md that a strange black stoop was at anchor in the hartlor on Monday, they pre~ pared to board her, but the sloop set Soil and escaped. no. The Dead Appeared to Her. A Norwich dispatch rays: Mrs. Ann Maria Huff, who lived with her dough ter, Mrs. Peter Mousch, in the country village of Montville, revcn miles south of here on the banks of the Thames river, died yesterday, aged 9) yiars. She was hale and hearty until v ithin a few hours of her death. 7 In a dream about midnight on Sun' day, she said, the apparition of her husband, who has been dead more than forty years, appeared at her bed- side, seemingly fliatfnzin the air. A moment latter the ima ie of her (1 nigh- ter, garbed in ii owing white robes, firmed by. So vivid and impressive was the vision that the aged lady at once addressed the spectre of her hus- band while eheping, saying “I will soon be with you, John.” Thereupon the apparition seemed to reply in a reproachful or imploring voice: “You are long coming, Ann.” II. an instant thereafter both’ figures vanished, and Mrs. Huff awakened in her dark chamber. In the morning al- though she was apparently as strong and well as usual, she said to her dmghter: "I shall die to-day, for I have had 9. Warning from John ” Having related the story of her dream or vision,she told the moment when her death would take place. In a'few hours she complained of being sick and list- less, and she laid down. She died as t~anquilly as if she had been falling asleep. and almost at the exact moment she had predicted. Mr. Morgan May Stay. The Washington Star, after saying that few men want the very responsible office of United States Treasurer, now held by Hon. D. N. Morgan with its small salary of $6,000 and all the re- sponsibility from losses adds: “It is quite possible that in the end the presi- dent will permit Morgan to continue in office. The present treasurer is agold Democrat and his administration of the office has been perfecxly satisfactory. His term does not expire in any event until the let of June, and it is not likely that he will be disturbed before that time, even if some good Republican is willing to fill his shoes." Recounting the various wave in which Mr. Morgan may be liable to have to _ make good, has 1, the. Star says: “Not long ago some slums of bills disap- peared from one of llu- treasury bureaus and could not he rum-ed. Their 'fsice value was $200. Mr. Mnrgadgimade good the $200 and asked the O’ingrees to reimburse him, as he could-net place the responsibility for the shortage in his office. Congress has not made good the $200 yet, hu' it probably will at the present session.” / i , _—__—_—— D Positively cured by these Little Pills.

And Remarkable Proofs that the National Disease I Long Considered lncurable‘, Can be Cured and HasBeen Cured Right Here in Norwalk. Mrs. William W. Bloom, who lives at 7 \Vater street, Nor walk. says: “I have been troubled with catarrh in my head and throat for some ' time. 'My whole head was stuffed up; the passages of my head and throat would at times become so filled with mucous that I could not talk , and altogether it was very annoying. I also suffered a great deal of the time with headaches. I got a bottle of California Catarrh Cure \at Plaisted’s drug store in South Norwalk, and I think it is the grandest stuff in the world. It has cured me of all the disagreeable suffering I have had for so long ; my throattroubles me no more, and I haven’t had a head- ache for weeks. I have recommended it to several friends who have used it with satisfactory results, and we all unite in saying it is a wonderful medicine. ” California Catarrh Cure is especially prepared for treatment of the mucous membrane. It allays the inflamation, checks the disease and arrests and re- pairs the ' ecay of this delicate lining. It. is a on ‘ tive agent for colds, coughs, hay fever, bronchitis, asthma, and— all purely mucous affections. Use it during and after a cold, and you will never have a cold “hang on,” or even reach the ca- tarrhal stage. When catarrh is once firm- ly fixed in the nasaljpassages and throat, it begins to attack the mucous membrane of the passages leading either to the lungs or to the stomach. The result of the former course is ultimately consump- tion, of the latter what is commonly called some form of indigestion or dispep- sia. It is catarrh of the stomach, intes tines, kidneys, and various internal pas- sages. California Catarrh Cure will pre- vent and cure all f arms of catarrh, what- ever the part affected, and even will check incipient consumption. It is Sold by all dealers; 50 cents, three times as much, one dollar. . , a Judge James T. Hubbell will prob} ably not go Shuth until some time In ‘ May.
