MRS. FLEMING Must Prove Her Marriage to Get Her Husband's Fortune. Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 18. A beautiful woman known in her younger days as Julia Ryan, of Cleveland, now Mrs. George Fleming of Pittsburg, is confronted with a hard legal proposition. Fleming, who was one of the leading city Democratic politicians and a member of the select Council, was buried two days ago. Mrs. Annie F. Richardson and Mrs. Martha S. Rutan, wealthy sisters of Mr. Fleming, have filed notice with the Register of .Wills that he shall accept no will of Fleming without they be consulted as next of kin. The sisters say Fleming never intimated to them that he was married. Mrs. Fleming declares that she was married to the man now dead in Providence, R. I., several years ago, and that she can prove it. She says she can also prove that Fleming introduced her as his wife. A rather spicy fight is expected, as the estate is large and all parties prominent. Pleaded Her Own Case Before the Church Court. Ilagerstown, Ind., August 18. With the ability of an old-time lawyer Miss Zylphia Snider, twenty years old, conducted her own breach of promise case here against Lewis Ilimes before a court composed of the members of the Dunkards' church. Rev. Lewis Teeter, who acted as Judge, rendered a decision in her favor. She alleged that just before the time set for their wedding Himes told her that he had decided to call it off, saying that his mother had told Mm Miss Snider was in no health to undertake the duties of a wife. The case was kept out of the civil courts, but in a previous trial in the church she was awarded $500 damages and at another $300, but shewas unable to collect either. Still not wishing to go into court, as it is against Dunkard ethics to sue in court, she appealed to the congregation. Ilimes attended and the trial yesterday was the result of this appeal. Himes was again ordered to pay her a sum of money or leave the church. C01T HOUSE Suit Filed Marriage Licenses Issued Will Probated, Attorney William A. Bond filed the complaint of Clara E. Cates, Lydia A. Fitzharris and Mary S. Oldham vs. Albert C. Dines, Silas Dines and Amanda Dines, on partition.

Anderson, of Bethel, was admitted to probate and record. He leaves everything to his wife as long as she remains a widow.

POLICE MOST SERIOUS RIOT OF CHICAGO STRIKE OCCURRED LAST NIGHT Guns, Pistols, Knives and Clubs Used and Three of the Disturbers are Injured. Chicago, 111., August 19. In the most serious riot since the packing house strike began, more than 4,000 strikers last night fought 150 policemen near the west entrance to the stoekyards. Three strikers are known to be severely injured, while a number of others who were hurt, it is believed were carried away by their friends. Rifles, revolvers, knives and clubs figured in the battle, which lasted, with intermissions, for more than two hours. A score or more of the strikers were armed with rifles and some of these were discharged at the phalanxes of police. The latter replied with their revolvers and fifty shots were exchanged. The police finally charged the mob with clubs, broke it up, and made a number of arests. Fell Today on the Just and Unjust Alike. The long-looked-for and much-prayed-for Rain came at last. Early this morning the blessed moisture fell in a gentle shower upon the mother earth and rejuvenated the parched grass and maturing corn. Later on in the day there was a good shower and a constant rain has been kept up all day. It is surely a great blessing and although late it will make good pasture. The corn is too far gone for any amount of rain to help it very much. DEATHS AND FUNERALS. Reniger Walter Reniger, aged about thirty-two years, died in Cincinnati, yesterday. The body will arrive here Saturday morning at 11:10 and be taken directly to Earlham for interment. B1CHMD PEOPLE In Attendance at Baptist Convention at Cambridge.

TRACTION LINE NOTES.

J Since the coming of the C, G. & R. public interest has been greatly aroused and traction news becomes as interesting as local news. An indication of il,e growing popularity of the electrical interurban ailjway is found in any comparison that may be instituted betweent the present condition of these properties in 'any part of the country and thj facilities of the lines operated in the same section a year ago. Everywhere progress has been made, and in most cases the development has been warranted. It is true that isolated "- stances may be cried where the buildj iug of an electric, load could only be explained by the ignoring or cupidity (of some or all of the persons engaged in the project, but these are usually J short-lived; few of them are ever completed, and, happily, they rarely exert any lasting ii flueuee on the in dustry in general. Probably the most noteworthy feature of this development is the present increasing tendency to compile with established steam lines. The wisdom of such a course is questioned by many investors and practical rialway men on the ground that very few electric . systems have suitable equipment, terminal properties and other facilities for successfully engaging in a struggle with the powerful and resourceful combinations of capital, organization and influential connections that are commanded by steam railroads. There may be isolated instances where the peculiar local conditions offer an excellent opportunity of this kind, but these are comparatively rare, and are not to be taken as fair examples of the experiences of projectors of such enterprises. The trouble is that promoters who lack practical experience hear complaints against the service of the steam roads in certain localities, and, knowing that more patronage would be forthcoming if improvements were introduced, assume that there is room for another railway, and find, when it is too late, that the disgruntled portion of the population is not sufficient to support the new enterprise? Then begins the struggle, which eventually ends in a consolidation of both properties or the complete effacement of one of them. Comparison of Two Great Powers. There are numerous cases, however, where existing steam railway facilities are entirely inadequate,and it seems impossible for many old lines to make the necessary extensions without fac ing an inevitable deficit. Here is a point where it would seem the part of wisdom in the steam railway management to establish electric lines for the local service, and for feeders to the main steam lines. But few steam railway men can break through the crust of tradition and prejudice in which they are encased, and thus it is that independent transportation projects are encouraged to enter this field, where they often find ample reward. When properlv conducted and restricted within rpnhi0 such enterprises are frequently de veloped into valuable properties, and, likewise, become a great benefit to the community. Investigation as to the effect of electric competition indicates iW while electric competition with a branch steam line may be serious, that parallel electric railway will not per - nc muni ntt-aui nut: anil manently affect the total amount of, business done by the former corn-! pany. While the local short-haul traffic is temporarilv affected, th influ ence of the electric road in fostering the "traveling habit" more than makes up in a short time for the local business directly taken away from the steam railroad rival.
