ENGLISH ATTACKS Qu American Kallroail OUlcer*—'Tlie Kork I*.and FeoU It. Nkw York, January 4.—The holders of American railway securitise are showing their agitation more and more daily. The pace was set by the sensational move of the English holders of Rt. Panl stock a few months ago, when, at a public indig nation meeting in London, they asked in fluential banking houses to receive scat tered stocks in Urnt and make concerted demands for bettor management. Mauv corporations have felt similar pres sure since then, though for the most part the movements of tired and combioirg shareholders have haen conducted too quietly for ninch public attention. The same elate of things as excited St. Paul’s security holders is impelling the holders of the securities of other roads to organize for an invest nation of ex'stiog cotditions, and. if possible, to axertissdirect influence upon managerial policy. In this line the law firm of Panning it Fowler, of (17 Wall street, acting at the in stance of large owners of the stock of the Chicago, K >ck Island and Pacific railway, made a demand last week upon the New York “register and fiscal agency" of that company for an opportunity to examine the Kook Island’s transler bcoks and stockholders’ list To this demand, Jas. It Cowing, Assistant Treasurer of the ltock Island Company, replied simply that no list of stockholders existed here, “the Iran*fer books and stock ledger being kept at Chicago ’’ Upm receipt of this notice, Dunning it Fowler at cnee adtlreeaed a letter to the K ck Island's Vice President, Mr. David Dows, of this city. It was an interesting letter. Rome of the paragraphs were not all pleasantness There were, indeed, uatiiuations in the letter, that while Mr. Dows is known of all men as an honorable naan, B'.nie of his corporation associates are not so happily situated. Yesterday Mr. Daws answered Dunning & Fowler’s letter by stating that, under the law of Illinois, it was aec**nry that the Chicago, Keck IsUrd and Pacific should maintain ati otlic* within that State, at which should bo kept f»r public inspection, certain rerordo, among them the stock transfer bo»k. The application of DonnineA Fow l»r to inspect this book in New York was tte fir*t made in many years. If the firm desire to examine it. It aoald bo necessary to make the application at the general • flice. Mr. l>jwa then said, a'most in so many words, that his associates were as good us iie was, and he did net propose to huvs them abased over his shoulder. Dunning & Fowler will now apply to the Chicago office for the information they faibd to get h»re, and, incase they meet with oh ta les, they will appeal to the conitr for an order to catup-1 the com pany’s officers to pro\iJe the facts sought The clients represented compose the Wall street firm of Cnlhert. Ctane dt Seahury, large holders of Kook Island stock in their own right and for otheis. As s..«n as the official list of stockhold *rs is obtained, elTuris will he begun to or ganize a movement on the same lines i-dopti d bv the protesting English holders of KL Paul stock.

THE BURLINGTON STRIKE Eogluaem Hold Another Conference With the Chicago Officials. Chicago, January 4.—In accordance with the arrangement made yesterday, the Grievance Committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers appeared at the general office of the Chicago, Burlington and (Rainey Com piny At 10:110 this morn ing, for a farther ('inference witli the offi cers of the road in regard to the propcsed settlement of the strike. The officials of the road were in con enltalion in Vice President Stine’s cffi le, where they remained until shortly before 11 o'clock, when they emerged and en tered the rcoui where the engineers were awaiting them. The conference is still in progress. A Boston dispaVh says: President Per kins of the Chicago, Burlington and (Rainey Kill road, was seen txley with regaid to the reported icUlemeut of the strike. Mr. Perkins stated that he had no official knowledge of the mutler, and had received nothing in relation to the strike. Mr. Per kins gave it as his opinion that the news pspirc knew more about the business than the company diet*. A meeting of the directors is now in session. A dispatch from New York says: In quiry among the engineers in New ^ ork has developed the feet that none of the striking engineeis of the Chicago, Barliug ton and Quincy road have come as tar East as the trank lines in search of em ployment, altbongh they msv hsve come on errands connected with the Brotherhood. Si there is no troth in the statement made in Chicago that the managers cf the Ext ern roads had boycotted the striking “Q” engineers. How far the Eastern reads have assisted the “Q" people financially, none of the engineers hereabouts ven ture to say, as they have not the means of finding out. THE PANAMA ('ANAL.

PABKKRSKt’Ktf, Jauoary 4.—Six dsys from to-day, tbs Federal grand jary will convene here, and Republican politicians are scurrying to cover. Tho word has gone forth that a complete acil searching investigation will lie made into the shame less use of money, and impoititmn of re pmera in this and the First congressional district. Some big men are in danger, acd they are straining every net ve to chi k the investigation and suppress the facts. Money has always been nred freely in the Fcnith district, but the laet election sur passed any thing ever before accomplished or even contemplated in tint line. The Republican leaders had au almost ntilimi t*<1 supply at their command, and they carried the work of corruption so far, that all GOOD MKN OK ItOTH I'AUTIKS STAND AGHAST at tbe di-elrsnres. 'dquire W. P. Rethlnne, one of the best known eitizrM ol this community, said to tic representative of the Register that in all his expeiicare in politics he had never before eeeu an election in which frand wss ho openly practiced. "The Republicans,” he said, ‘ had money acd they need it lav ishly. I believe I know whereof I am speaking, end I bave uo hesitancy in say 10,. that they spent ten dollaia to our one in this district ” Another citizen, equally as prominent, said that there was no dill! jolty in tracing this rnocey tuck into the hsuds of the Republic gi leaders. They made no efforts to cover np tteir trucks. The belief was general that the Republican Congressional committee lmd pined large sums in every county of the distlief, ami the location ol the money, ar d the selection of agents was superintended by the ma: fiends of the Republican candidate in per son. These men are now IN KKAR AND TRKMBI.INO. Jndge John J. Jackson tans let it lie nuder ato.sl that every effort will be made to bring tbe gmlty parties to justice. The Federal Court autluritics are werk icg in secret, nod allow no intimation ol their plans to lie made public. I bave learned, however, from the best authority, that 218 witnesses have already been sub poena* d on election canes alone. They come from tbe connties cf Hancock, Ohio, Marshall, Wetzal, Preston, Monorgalia, Marion. Wirt, Jackson, Wyoming, Mer cer, McDowell, Roane. Kanawha, Fayette, Greenbrier, Monroe, Wclwter and probably one or two otbus. Tho majority of theee witness* h are summoned in cases of brib cry and intimidation. Tbe money has been trfe-d, and some ot the leading Re publicans iu the State are implicated. Fifty-one of tbe*a summer * are KOR C ITIZENS OK OHIO COUNTY, and I am reliably informed that a list of fifty-nine subpoenas will be issued soon Among the gentlemen who are expected to know about tbe savory mutters are Hon. Chailet Kardette Hurt, Mr. Kulpli Whitehead. Mr. T. M. Garvin, Mr. D. W. Martin, Mr. D. J. Phillips, and others whose names cm not be atcertaintd. All have been mm monel. There was tome crooked work done iu Ohio county, as a number of iihgal voters held in the Wheeling j ail can undoubted ly testify, nod the righteous Mr. Hart et al., are expected to make thae matters plain. Col. Dellicker, Clerk of the Federal Court, told the representative of the Reg ister that if tbe same process was pur sued as at Martioshurg tbe grand jury would be kept setting until next fall to dispose of the ca-es. AT LEAST ONE THOUSAND INDICTMENTS would be found, acd some of the leading politicians of tbe State would be among the indicted. Deraoc-ratfl here are noauimom in the faith that the gubernatorial contra! will result in the triumphant declaration ol Jndge Fleming's election. They osy that if necaesary in Wood county alone they can establish the fraodnlency of a hun dred Republican ballots. In Parkersburg district ot this county 700 more votes were polled than there were names of voters on the assessor’s lists Thev believe that these wrongs mnst be righted. The con test most go on and Judge Fleming's claim he tairly aril aqoarely established. DOESN'T CiOKK INTEND TO PUSH THE CON TEST? I heard an interesting report to-day, and it came to me well antfienticated. it was to the effect that Goff had written a pn vate letter to a frieno in Ibis town, in which he said that be did not intend to push tbe gubernatorial contest to any length, but would concentrate hie ellort* on the Senatorahip. A feint woold be made, hot that would lie all. I find that there is a strong and growirg sentiment in f*vor of eotenng ogam ** Seuator Camden in the Scnatonal ram The Senate r ps rronally dieeearagve these proposals, aod he will crtaral? not he e , andidete as long »» Sesauw K< no* is in the field. II any o mtingeary should artee which »r u'd make Kraus's re-elr- t**oen« of the iiurstion, Camden’• name might then 11 0„,|. bat not before, one thing ail pgl i—la agree upon, aod that ■ Urn* thine there mutt aa union srd harmony is the neat Lvahlare Pi it <oal am* itten mnet no* he allowed to J stand in tfce way of the general good. A senator most be elected early in the ses uon. He moat ben Democrat and the cbci.* rf a majority of the Democrat#. Both candidates for Coogrees claim their election. That snms np the situation. It is not settled by any means that on the face of the returns even, 8mitb has a ma jority, and Judge Jackson's friends are emphatic in the claim that be has not It E least one county, K tchie, two certificates were certified to he Governor There were grave iiregu lsnties in others. The difference iu the Ritchie county certificates may mean a loss of seven votes for Smith. An inves tigaticn ot the irregnlsrities in l'utnam and Wirt will probably mult even more disastrously. Jackson and bis friends are confident of the re*ult, and while it is too close to make a prediction with certainty, it is sale to say that the chances are that tbit confidence will be made good. Those of the Republican politicians of this city who are not busy devising ways and meins to (scape indictment by the giand jiny are prepariegto make a raid on ti e s*-ode in right. They will charge on March 5, and the CHAhUEoK THE 8IX Hl'KDUKD will 8 uk into insignificance in comparison. Parkersburg already boasts three candi dates for United States District Attorney, one for internal revenae collector, and a whole boet are fighting for the local offices. Hon. John A. Hutchinson, Jndge George Loom is and W. J. Vandeivort are theaspi rants for the United Ktttes Attorneyship They have rivals in other quarters in W. J W. Cowden, of Wheeling, and Unde William Flick, <>f Martinsburg. Hutchin son bus lead two forlorn hopes for his party and is now clearly entitled, if any one is, to the position. He is a well eqaipped law yer and an able prosecutor. William M. Ramp, who wants to fill Collector McGraw’s official shots, is an other one of Parkersbn'g’s "h at citizens.” He fit d* his path made thorny by Gen. Duval, of Brooke, and Brother* Ham. Mc Cormick and Bill Ibtwson, of Pieiton. There are OILY me applicants for the Parkertliarg postoffire already. They are: Editor A. B. Whits, Captain 8. K. Hn/.ro, Col. Van Rnkty, Col. Wni. A. Tsggart, and Private Citizen Will Ogden. The nnburn haired editor *nd the gory Captain are supposed to have (he inside track. R : tween them they are making Smith’s life a harden, and the j' ys of prospective otlke bolding a delu sion and a snare. To cap the climax, Mr James p. Madi son, a co'ored citizen of tome intlaeace, aspires to be doorkeeper of ihe State Sen ate. This is a partial list of l’arktrsbnrg’s modest Republicans. There wilt be more when winter breaks. Col. H. 8. White, of Belton, Mnrshall <• innty, will thank the Rkiistek for an nouncing the fact that be ia a red but cau dinate lor U. S. Marshall, under the new rtgim'. His candidacy is a thing of hnt a tew days’ growth, bat it is considerably larger than the Colonel, already. Years ago, when Htpnhlicacs ran this otlke, and collected fat fees f oai the people for serv ing notices iu casts that were never bionght to trial, it paid a great deal of money. Since then tie receipts have iullen off considerably, so 1 am told. But iu any event Mr. White wants it, and by the bine blazes, thinks he ought to have it. Gen. Nathan Goff passed through here to-day on bis way to Charleston, hnt did cot stop. Hon. C. P. Dorr, of Webster, and Hon. John M.
