cific.
Balt Lake, September 14.—The county
commissioners, representing all the counties
through which the Northern Pacific passes In
Montana, convened at Helena yesterday to
take uniform action concerning the location
o£ the road, which the counties opposed.
Eight coimties were represented. A law firm
employed to investigate the legality of as-
sessing and taxing the property of the railroad
corporation presented an opinion affirming
the right of the counties to impose taxes on
all unsurveyed land town sites. The resolu-
tions for taxation passed, there being only two
opposing votes. It was agreed that in case a
compact was made between Jefferson county
ond the railroad corporation, that the counties
interested, except Deer Lodge, boar their pro-
portion of the expenses.

THE NATIONAL GAME.
relent of the Nationals by tho Fort Worth Club
nt Houston.
[Special to The News.1
Houston, September 14.—The Nationals and
Fort Worth Base-ball clubs crossed bats to day
nt the Fair grounds. The game was witnessed
by tho largest crowd that has attended a base-
ball game in this city this season. Fort
Worth went first to the bat aii-1 scored on?
inn in the first inning, after two
men were out. The score remained thus until
the fifth inning, when the Fort Worths addel
three more runs to their score by a bad play
on tho part of the Nationals' short stop. In
the seventh inning four more runs wore made
by the visiting club, and two more on tho
eighth, thus making ten runs. The Nationals
did not score until the eighth Inning, when by
a w ild throw to first baso, Sam Hainmadea
tome run, and on tho ninth Yeager and
Nichols scored one ruu each, thus ending the
fame by a score of 10 to Sin favor of Fort
Worth.
The National team was weakened to-day by
fhe absence of Crooks on first base, who was
suddenly called home to St. Louis by serious
illness in his family. A substitute player had
to be used, and his playing at short stop was
execrable.
The Fort Worth team did the best playing
throughout, making fewer errors and inoie
base hits, though tho majority of their runs
were through errors on the opposite side.
Nichols, the National pitcher, covered him-
self with g'ory. It was some time before the
Fort Worths caught on to his delivery, and
they did very little batting until the last half
of the game. The Nationals batted tho Fort
Worth's pitcher well, but were unfortunate in
tapping flies in the field, nearly all of which
w ere caught, the visitors, on the other hand,
batting grounders and making safe hits.
Graves, the catcher for the Nationals, was
disabled about the fifth inning, and had to
tafce second base, while Shields took his posi-
tion behind the bat. On the whole it is very
evident that the Fort Worths ire the stronger
team, the Nationals being Weaker both at the
bat aud in tho field.

WH1ELING, W. Vs., September 14.—The
Belmont lodge, of the Amalgamated Associa-
tion of Iron and Steel Workers, composed of
boiler makers and helpers, at the Belmont
mill in this city, last night, resolved to sever
their connection with the association, and so-
licit boiler makers all over the country to aid
them in the disintegration of amalgamation.
'I his action is taken because of the refusal of
boiler-makers here, who cut steel, to demand
the 20 per cent, increase of wages, as the scale
signed' last June by the manufacturers pro-
vides may be done. The step is an important

volved the validity of the tubular lantern
patents, which has been litigated with great
acrimony during the past three years, and
has, by all the lantern manufacturers in the
country, been considered a test case. The
court, in an elaborate opinion, sustains a
validity of the complainant's patents; declares
the defendant's lantern infringements; and
grants a peremptory injunction restraining
further violation of complainant's right with
damages for past infringements.

PRESENT ASPECT OF THE AFFAIR.
Vol 1.1 ill's Daughter Arrested for Larceny, but
Is Belensed on Iler Own Recognisance—
Dramatic Scene in n Police Station.
Nfw York, September 14.—Mrs. Ernest J.
Pchelling, nee Morosini, returned to tho house
of her parents, at Yonkers, in company with
her husband, on the train that arrived there
from Troy at 5:33 this morning. Her return
was the result of negotiations pending for two
days between the runaway couple and Moro-
sini. Mr. and Mrs. Schelling, who have been
stopping in Troy since tho elopement,
took a cai riage and drove to the Morosini
mansion. Mrs. Schelling entered tho housa
alone, be remaining a short distance away.
The young woman remained indoors about au
hour. What took place there is not certainly
known, but it is understood that the grief-
stricken parents besought the daughter to re-
nounce lier hunband and come back to their
care, and the father absolutely refused to
recognize Schelling as his daughter's husbau i.
'1 he daughter us resolutely refused to give up
lier husband, and left the house and rejoiujd
Schelling. The couple then drove to a hotel on
Riverside avenue.
Mrs. Morosini's condition is reported critical
this evening, aud she is not expected to live
through the ni^ht.
When Captain Mangin of the Yonkers po-
lice was informed of the arrival of the run-
away couple he bolted out of bed, says the
New York Tribune, and hurriedly dressed
hiintelf. Then he started on a run for the
depot. Half way down he came upon Schell-
ing and three women who were nbont to turn
into Riverdale avenve, a thoroughfare which
leads to the Morosini house. "I guess you
bad better come with me to the station," said
Mangin to Schelling, ''and let me
go and apprise Mr. Morosini of your
arrival." Schelling showed anxiety to meet
his father-in-law, and in a few minutes the
party were seated in the captain's private
room in the station. The new-made wife
clasped the coachman tenderly about the neck
apd kissed him time and time again. He re-
turned her caresses, but kept a sharp watch on
the door, as if expecting at any moment to see
the toweling form of Morosini entering the
station. The bride expressed a desire to eat
something, and a waiter brought over some
ham and eggs, coffee and rolls, and spread
them on a table in the room.
At 8:30, just as the last remnants of the
breakfast were beina eaten, a hack rattled up
to the door of the station and Captain Mangin
got out, and a dark-featured young man re-
mained Inside. He was Attila P. Morosini,
the eldest sou of Morosini. His face wa3 pale,
tiut le showed no evidence of excitement.
Captain Mangin told Mrs. Schilling or
Hulskamp that her brother wished to see her
outside, and Victoria walked to the open door
of the carriage. What was said by the brother
to t be sister could not be beard, l'hev did not
shake hands but it was plain that Attila was
urging the newl3*-mariied wife to do some-
thing that she was resolute in declining to do.
Once he stretched out his arm and half clasp-
ing Ik r about the waist sought by gentle
fi ice to pull her into the vehicle beside him.
She drew away from him aud again entered
tl e station and rejoined her husband. At this
junctuie the young man, whose face had
turned paler than ever during this brief inter-
view, got out of the carriage and followed his
sister into the station. As he did so, Captain
Margin called Schelling and his wife from tho
private room, and the pair stood confronting
young Morosini before the deuk. The Italiau's
black eyes flashed only for an instant as his
gaze fell npon his new brother-in-law, but he
said nothing and did not stir.
" I must tell you, Mr. Schelling," said Cap-
tain Mangin, " I am compelled to detain your
wife hero as a prisoner."
" What have I done that I should be arrested
for it? "said the young woman, her bosom
beginning to heave, "you can not arrest me
for marrying the man Hove."
"Madam," replied the police captain, "I
have a warrant here charging you with grand
larceny iu stealing a diamond pin, valued at
$70, from your sister."
"'Tis false! 'Tisfalfel This is the work of
my people," cried the accused woman, now
thoroughly aroused She advanced to the
railing in front of tho desk, and her eyes blazed
with defiance at her brother and the captaiu.
"It is all their doings," she continued; " they
have deceived and betrayed me. They have
written me false letters and sent false promises.
I do not care if every one in the house is dead.
I will never return to them. I have stolon
nothing. Here is the pin you want. I took it
in the burly in leaving home, thinking it was
my own," and she laid the glittering diamond
jewel on the desk. "My sister ana myself,"
she continued, "have each a pin alike, only
mine is more than twice as valuable. I will
gladly exchange with her."
"We have stolen nothing," said Schelling,
throwing back his shoulders and glancing vin-
dictively at his brother-in-law. " We have
brought back every thing we have taken
away."
" Oh that I should have been so deceived as
to trust them, when I felt iu my heart they
would deceive me," said the wife. " It is true
1 ran away and was married. I love my hus-
band dearly and would do it again. They
shall never separate me, shall they, my dear
one," and she took Schilling's arm aud clung
ta him affectionately.
Nevertheless Captain Mangin went through
the formal questions and entered the following
on the official blotter: "Victoria Hulskamp,
age twenty-six; white; native of the United
States; married -can read and write; charged
w ith stealing a diamond pin of the value of
$70."
"Do you make complaint;" ho asked of
young Morosini.
"Yes," replied the latter, and the youug
man left the station.
Mrs. Hulskamp renewed her lamentations
after his departure. " If they take me into
court," she said, "I will give them cause for
sorrow which they will ever regret. For twen-
ty-six years they have had me ill a state of
prison, and when I break away and marry thu
man of my choice, they entrap me into their
snore again."
Captain Mangin then sent for Justice Pent/,
and explained that he thought the charge of
In rceny was only made as an excuse to hold
Mrs. Hulskamp.
"Then 1 will parole you, madame, until
September £3, at 9 a. m., on your own recog-
nizance," said the justice.
Thus freed, Mr. and Mrs. Schelling-Hul-
skamp drove up Riversdale avenue half way
to the Morosini mansion. At Riversdale ave-
nue and Ludlow street is the liquor store of
Henry Warner. It is a plain unpainted two-
story frame-house. Up stairs over the liquor
store is the aoom occupied by Schelling, while
in Morosini's employment as coachman.
When the vehicle got opposite bis old
quarters Schelling alighted and hurried
into the beer shop, where he was
warmly greeted by the proprietors.
Mrs. Hulstramp continued on her journey to
her father's house, where full forgiveness was
offered if she would consent to leave her hus-
band. She demanded that he be recognized,
but Morosini swore he should never darken his
doorw ay while be lived. Then the wife said
she would never leave her husbaud, who was
so dear to her heart, and bitterly reproached
her father for having her arrested. Mrs.
