Death Lurked , at Bottom of the Hill for a : : Coaster.* 2-.. Beat His: Wife Until the Neighbors Interfered for Her Protection. . A suit was filed in the district court late yesterday afternoon which appears to be the initiative step to be taken by a dozen others equally; interested in the transaction; It was that of* C. Robert Schurman, of -the state of Illinois, against Bushnell & Bushnell, a promi- nent real estate firm of this city. Plaint- iff claims that April 20.-ISS7, the defend- ants stated that they were peculiarly situated in their business, and could in- vest a - certain . amount of plaintiff's money in such " a way as to be able to realize the principal and a large profit out of the deal in which they should invest the funds within one year. They agreed to take his money, ' not' stating what they . would do with it in particular, but that they would remit the same to plaintiff one year from that date with a large per cent of profit. Further representations indi- cative of the high ahd influential posi- tion defendants held in the real estate market led the plaintiff to leave $1,000 with them, to be invested according to the agreement. . A short time after the money had been so placed with the de- fendants, they invested the amount in a piece of property in block 2of Hoyt's addition to St. Paul, with the funds of eleven other persons to whom they had made other or similar representations. At the time of placiug the $1,000 with the defendants it was agreed by and between plaintiff and defendant that plaintiff should have a form of their agreement and a receipt for his money. This, however, the plaintiff claims has never been tendered him, although often demanded. The alleged and pre- tended price paid for the properly was $50,000, one-third being paid cash as defendants represented, and a mortgage was given upon the same for the bal- ance, by Randall F. Hurd, to whom the property was. deeded. Hurd, it was represented, should hold the prop- erty for the so-called "syndicate.'' Ever since the spring of 1887 the plaintiff has been inquiring into the deal and learns, .as he claims, the following details, which prompts his action and which lie sets up as a special cause for the damages asked. The property in question was owned at the time of the alleged and pretended purchase by Boston parties .for whom the defendants were agents. The de- fendants having the funds of -the twelve persons for investment, bought the property from the Boston parties for $20,000, receiving commission from such sale, which was made to and in the name of Hurd. Then it is charged the defendants made a' pre- tended deed back and forth to Hurd for the consideration of $50,000, and they represented that Hurd exe- cuted a mortgage to the original own- ers, whom they named as being other persons, for thirty odd thousand dol- lars on the balance" of the transaction. After a while the interest on the mort- gage became due and demands were made upon the members of the "syndi- cate." Assessments came floating in at them and again demands were made upon the "interested ones." The plain- tiff states that after mature investiga- tion, he verily believes and knows that the property at the time of the alleged purchase was worth but $30,000 and that it is not worth that now. He charges that the defendants were personally interested in the matter, and that the purchase of the property and the application of his $1,000 were "a fraud. He asks that his interest in the property be annulled and declared void and wrongfully, fraudu- lently aud unlawfully obtained, and asks that his $1,000 and interest be re- tared, and $1,000 as damages for the in- jury suffered by the false representa- tion of the defendants.. '\u25a0 \ SELLING AN OPERA HOUSE. Agent and Purchaser Sue the Davidson Estate. Mark D. Flower filed a suit against the Davidson estate yesterday, in which he asks $5,000 as commission for the sale of the opera house property to Lotta M. Crabtree. He states that in March, ISSS, he entered into a verbal agree- ment with the executors of the estate that he should make efforts to sell the property and would receive $5,000 if the sale was made at $142,500. In July, 1888, the contract was made in writing, and the time extended in which to find a purchaser. Sept. 10. the actress Lotta M. i Crabtree was introduced by him to the managers of the estate, and purchased the property at $142,500, paying $5,000 as earnest mouey upon the sale, and entering into a contract to bind the same. She was accepted as a responsible and satisfactory purchaser, and a contract whereby she should pay, $70,000 unon the delivery of the deed, and the balance in one year, was signed Plaintiff claims that the sale was thus consummated as far as he was con- cerned, and therefore asks for the $5,000 commission which has .been refused by the defendant. Another chapter was added to the controversy regarding the opera house deal by the answer of Lotta, whicii was filed yesterday. Executors of the David- son estate brought suit to compel the actress to fulfill her contract by paying a balance of $95,000 and the delivery of a note and mortgage for $42,500, making the total consideration $142,500. In her answer defendant admits that in Sep- tember she executed a contract agree- ing to pay the plaintiff $100,000 on de - liven*of the. deed of conveyance, the note and mortgage for $42,500, and paid $5,000 cash on account. • She denies that the plaintiff delivered the abstract of title before Sept. 10. in fact not until Sept. 13, and did not report the title good. Another point alleged is that the bill boards located in various parts of the city, regarded as indispenable to the success of tho opera house, the said hoards being valued at $7,500, were not turned over to the defendant, and that as a matter of fact the defendant had no power or authority to execute or con- tract for salo of said bill boards.. Oct. 1 the defendant withdrew from contract, giving plaintiff proper notice, and since that date has had no commu- nication whatever with the .'plaintiff re- garding the sale. Said contract is ren- dered void under the law by the reason that the parties subscribing to the contract, Ed E. Davidson and. Andrew DRaney, were not . authorized to do so, and also by the.reason.that they falsely represented that they owned I a half in- terest in the bill boards and bill-posting business. The defendant avers that she is now, and lias at all times been, ready and willing to fulfill her part of the contract ifthe plaintiffs will fulfill their part. The defendant believes that, the plaintiff has not a good title to the ease- ment in the ''rand ana Court blocks, and that the Economy. Steam Heat com- pany was in January, ISSS. granted the privilege of erecting and maintaining .a smokestack by the plaintiff in the right of way at the Fourth street entrance to the opera house. Defendant also be- lieves "that the destruction of the opera bouse was due to oareleßsaes_*a_id neg- ligence on tliopart of the plaintiff.'. On tliese grounds she **3;*r to *:nv. the suit J-'suii.-ea. KILLED WHILE COASTING. An Unmanageable Sled Causes Its Occupant's Death.

Mor- rison, filed a suit in . the district court yesteryay, in which she seeks to allevi- ate the subjection in which she claims . she has been held by the defendant. She states that she is twenty-eight -and the defendant forty-two years old. They were • married vat Farmington, Perm., Nov. 15, 1878, and had one child born to . them, Aug. 21, 1879; which they named : Eva. She charges cruel and , inhuman treatment and cites, as especial -in-, stances that at one time . during their married life he threatened to kill her if she appeared: ! in a court where he was being tried for ! wife-beating on a charge preferred by : \u25a0\u25a0 | neighbors, who were attracted late, one night to his home, where they found him aoplying_approbrious and profane epi- thets to her and beating her. in the face with his fists. In the summer of 1880,'. for reasons inexplicable to.the plaintiff, he moved to Prescott, Kan., and a short time afterwards . made his wife- and child fly to Pierce county, Wisconsin, and remain there, while he lead a stroll- ing and nomadic existence on • the borders of the state. When' in a fit of ungovernable rage he once struck and severely wounded the plaintiff and drove her . from the house. She says that he is thrift- less and improvident, always neglecting and fails to provide for herself and child. That when he, was gone, which was all the time save those intervals in which he came to abuse her. she was compelled to avail herself of beneficent 1 and charitable friends and her own manual labor for support. She asks for the custody of the child and such relief as shall compart with equity and a good conscience. /% 7 7;:7'f7 7_ '7 "•'' SENT TO PRISON.

A Brakeman Demands Heavy Damages From His Employers. John Brennan filed a suit in the dis- trict court yesterday against the North- ern Pacific company to recover 25,000 damages for personal injuries sustained while in the employ of the road. Plain- tiff claims that he was a brakeman on a west-bound train, and while running along the saddle-board of a freight car as the train was nearing Winnipeg Junctiou, a spike protruding upward from the board tripped him and threw him between the cars, where he was run over and badly mangled. His head, body and limbs were bruised and maimed, and he was confined to his bed for a long time and expended $800 for surgical apparatus and medical treat- ment. * \u25a0-"'" ~v* DISTRICT COURT DIGE ST.

IC— of the most sweeping cuts in expenses ever made -by the Gould interest has just been* accomplished. The method of economizing applies to the ; Missouri Pacific, Cotton Belt and Iron Mountain, and is nothing more nor less than the reduction of train service. Thus, in- stead of having local trains to follow through trains to pick up the local busi- ness, through trains are compelled to do the work. The Missouri Pacific has abandoned its local trains on the Lexington branch, Wichita branch, and a large number of other branches. The train service on the Iron Mountain, be- tween St. Louis and the Texas line, has been greatly reduced. Also on the St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas.

Pullman Secures a Monopoly of ' the Sleeping Car Service to the ' ' Coast. \u25a0..-"\u25a0'-'\u25a0•\u25a0-\u25a0 . Chicago, Feb. 16.—George M. Pull- man has secured a practical' monopoly of the ' sleeping car service of both classes of travel on the entire system of the transcontinental railroads. He has just closed a contract with the Union Pacific for managing the second-class sleeping car service of that line in con- nection with, the Central Pacific. -The Pullman company has already a con- tract with the Atchison & Santa ' Fe, which also covers the Souteern Pacific from San Francisco to Ma- jave, and it has also placed the Northern Pacific on its list. It will establish a uniform second-class rate of $3 for the trip between San Francisco and the Missouri river, and has put that rate into effect on the Atchison, between the coast and Kansas City. The rate between Chicago and San Francisco will be 84. First-class sleeping rates : are 818.50 from Chicago and \u25a0 $13 from the Missouri river to San Francisco. The application of the new system to the Uuion Pacific will result in the withdrawal of the excursion agents of tliat road from various Eastern and Western points. The Denver & ; Rio Grande is the only transcontinental line hot included in the deal, but a "contract Will probably be made with it in a short tihie. : \ j } RATES THAT MEAN RUIN.

Bird and Fish, of the Milwaukee road, appeared before 'the lowa railway commissioners to-day, and made a request in geueral terms for a new schedule 1 or" rates, which shall be higher than that recently adopted and now in force. The Illinois distance tar- iff was referred, to as satisfactory, al- though it was riot insisted upon, but the representatives of the road did urge the commissioners with a great ileal, of earnestness to make a' reasonable modification in the direction asked. The commission- ers answered that they had firmlyde- termined to make a thorough test of the schedule for the purpose of ascertain- ing from actual experience whether the rates are compensatory or not. They said further that as soon as that act was determined, and it should prove the rates were too low : they would be promptly raised to a point where the loads would have no reason to com- plain. The railway officials are not all satisfied with the result of their labors, but they went away determined to make the best of what they firmly believe is a very bad mess. . ;*' Sixty Days to Kansas City.

Jacob Graef was .found by the reporter at "No. 109 First avenue east, where the following story r was related by him. Mr. Graef said that for five years he has been suffering more than he could tell.. About that lime be got.« severe cold, which it appeared impossi- ble to get rid of ; as quick' as" it got* bet- ter, it would return with renewed vigor. He bad a dropping of mucus from the head into the throat, hawking and spitting* continually, pain over the fore- head, eyes weak and watery. His head was in such a bad condition and pained him so much that life was a burden, and he often wished it might end; * His appetite became poor and he gradually lost iD weight. He doctored and spent \u0084«___*_., money, but all to no avail, as he gradu- ally became worse until he despaired of ever getting better (but he said that now he was feeling like a different man). In answer as to what lrad brought that about, he said that he had been watching the papers.and seeing of cases treated by Dr. Cosman, whose . symptoms very much resembled bis case, and as they appeared to be get- ting relief, he concluded to go and see the doctor himself and see if there could be anything done for him. So ac- cordingly he did so, and after a careful examination of my case, Dr. Cosman told me that 1 was suffering with chronic catarrh of the head and throat, and that he could treat me successfully, so Iplaced myself in his care and com- menced treatment. I have improved from the start, and to-day 1 hardly know myself, so great has been the change effected in me. I have no moid trouble with my head or throat. Drop*- ping of mucus' from the head into the throat, hawking and spitting does not bother me any. My appetite has Im- " proved greatly. I eat with a relish and* enjoy any food. I have gained over ten pounds iii weight since starting treat- ment with the doctor. My eyes lost the weak and watery feeling and are strong as ever. I sleep well, arising in the mornine*! refreshed and ready for my day's work, and this is all due to the excellent treat- ment I received at the hands of Dr.. Cosman, and would most cheerfully '\u25a0 recommend any person suffering with apparently incurable diseases to go and ' see him. Mr. Graef can be found at No. 109 First avenue east, where he will cheer- fully corroborate the above statement to any person who would like to inter- view mm in regard to it. Do you have" frequent fits of mental oppression? Do you'experience ringing or buzz- ing noises in your ears? Do you feel as though you must suf- focate when lying down? Are yon * troubled with a hacking cough and general debility? Are your eyes generally weak and watery and frequently inflamed? Does your voice have a husky, thick ' sound and a nasal sort of twang? Is your breath frequently offensive from some unaccountable cause? Have you a dull, oppressive head- ache, generally located over the eyes? Do you have to hawk and cough fre- quently in the effort to clear your ' throat? "7V. Are you losing your sense of smell, and is your sense of taste becoming dulled? ',-*-.'\u25a0 Does your nose always feel stopped : up, forcing you to breathe through your mouth? Do you frequently feel dizzy, particu- larly "when stooping to pick anything offthe floor? Does every little draught of air and every slight change of temperature give you a cold? Are you annoyed by a constant de- sire to hawk and spit out an endless quantity of phlegm? Are you always tired and indisposed' to exertion, whether to business, work , or amusement? 7*77^ -Is great effort required to keep your ' thoughts fixed upon matters that for- merly were easily performed? If so, . call and see Dr. Cosmau.— Duluth Trib- . une. 12".y~. 2i222r : \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 '.'• • DOCTOR ETHELBERTO.
