It is a notorious fact that the great ten

having a reaction. Lately an article called
Moxie Nerve Food has appeared upon the

that gives all the nerves require of a stimu-

Rata Var Threatened.


CHICAGO, Oct. 26.-Another war on
live stock rates from the Missouri river
to Chicago seems tobe imminent. The
recent agreement fixes tariff on cattle
of 1885 per car from the Indian Ter
ritory to Chicago by way of Kansas
City, of which rate the lines from the
Indian Territory to Kansas City are al
lowed 40 per cent and lines from Kan
sas City to Chicago so per cent. Two
of the Kansas City roads run from the
territory through to Chicago, but they
have not been able to control this traf-
fic satisfactorily, and are said to have
taken steps that are not approved by
the other roads. Being unable to send
cars of cattle through over the lines
they refuse to bill through at through
rates, but charge connecting lines local
rates to Kansas City. If the lines east
from Kansas City take the business
from Kansas City at full rates their
through rate will be 1854 per car
higher than the rate provided by SEIZED
ule. The roads affected by this have
determined not to take any cars coming
to them at Kansas City to Chicago fol-
the balance left of the through rate
after the local tariff of $36.25 to Kan
sas City has been taken out. This will
make the rate from Kansas City to
Chicago S32. so instead of S41.25.

The Sinking Of the AsiA..

NEW YORK. Oct. 24.-The steamship
Atlas, which was sunk by q collision
with ferry boat off Vesey street last
evening, has settled considerably in
the mud since she went down, her
smoke stack which was visible last
night at high tide has disappeared
from view altogether this. morning.
Small boats are in the vicinity of the
sunken vessel watching for anything
Of value that may drift from her. Can
tain Tobin of the Atlas is positive that
he gave the proper signal for the ferry
boat to go astern. and says the pilot of
the latter must have been either drunk
or crazy. The ferry boat is laid
up in New Jersey for repairs. Cap
tain Tobin placed his report of
the collision in the hands of the Brit
ish consul this afternoon. No steps
have yet been taken looking to the
raising Of the Atlas, but it is thought
the Merritt wreckiDgs COMPANY will
get the contract ana proceed to work
without delay ~ $50
The official statement of Capt. E. +.

sunk the Atlas, was made to the steam
ar vessel inspectors to-day. He states
that he stopped on receiving two
whistles from the steamship and gave
the signal to the engineer to back fol

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-Seven thous-
and Irish protectionists assembled in
Madison Square Garden tonight to
hear James &. Blaine. Chairman Pat
rick Ford made forcible speech of in
struction in which he declared that the
purpose of the meeting was the discus
sion by American citizens of American
affairs and not to consult as Irishmen
for the interests Of Ireland. After the
reading of q congratulatory telegram
from General Harrison, Mr.. Blaine
stepped forward and began his speech.
He expressed the hope that
the Irish Americans would not
do England's bidding in voting for
Cleveland and low tariff. In referring
to Minister Vests letter urging the re-
election of President Cleveland, he
criticised that gentlemRn's course in
blaming the United States senate for
rejecting the fisheries treaty. The
closing portion of his remarks was de-
voted to an argument in favor of pro-
lection, which he supported by figures
showing the prosperity Of the country
under q high tariff.

Chin.sa Ern,nsinn Rnl.

SAN Francisco, Cal, Oct. 26.-The
steamer Arabic arrived from Hong
Kong and Yokahoma this afternoon.
The Hong Kong Gazette has state
ment published in the Chinese Times
to the effect that the action of the Chi
nese minister to the United States in
the matter of the treaty which was re-
Gently rejected by the Chinese govern
ment excited SO great animOsity
against him in Kwantun that en-
deavors were made by an angry
mob to wreck the minister's house.
The Chinese Times also contains a
letter signed by the Pekin officials writ
ten lust after the news had reached
China that the United States senate
had passed the Chinese exclusion bill.
The following is an extract and is
taken from the letter: IF the obnoXi-
Gus American bill should be carried in
to effect there will be no other course
for China; consistent with her
dignity as nation, than to adopt
retaliatroy measures by prohibiting the
citizens of the United States from
coming to China. This will be by no
means proportionate to the harm done
to the Chinese interests in America,
but it will have to be done in order to
show that the Chinese can do
the same thing and if this will have
no effect in bringing the United States
government to reason and fairness,
then it will be question for China to
consider whether it is not for her
to cancel her treaties made with
that country TO recall her subjects from
there and to expel all the United States
citizens from this country and to cease
all relations and intercourse, diplomat
ic and commercial, with that country"

1t is becoming harder and harder every

many instances violence is resorted to

PoNderlY a ProtectiOnist.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 26.-Secretary
Coke, of the Window Glass Workers
association, to-day gave out a portion
of the private letter he received from
Terence v. PoWderly, in which the
latter declared himself a protectionist.
Mr.. Coke says that tn e letter was writ
ten in answer to one which National
District Assembly no 800 had sent TO
the general master workman, asking
for an opinion as to the legality Of
their course in placing speakers in the
field to advocate the cause of protec-
ton during the present campaign.
The following are the extracts from
the letter which Mr.. Coke gave out
mo explanation is necessary
as to the course taken by
Labor Association 800. If the members
think they are right that
is sufficient for me, so long as the ac-
ton taken does not interfere with this
work in the assembly. L have not
questioned the counsel taken by your
members and regret that they should
deem an explanation necessary after
all have written on this question. Let
me say an assuring word as to my
course in this campaign. l am not free
to advocate either party and have not
done so by word, act, art or intention.
You are at perfect liberty to denounce
me through the press of this country
the moment you catch any trace of my
fingers in this campaign except it be for
some well known friend of labor.
believe in protection and have never
bought single article made

invariable practice to ask where the ar

made article will wait until l can. If
protection is what it is claimed, why
are steps being taken to lower the tar
if by both parties. Why is the differ

the national legislature but little
over five or six million dollars. may
be wrong as TO the figures, as have to
depend upon reports, not having seen
the senate bill. I would not allow a
single article to land that we can man

any Workmen to come over and take
the place Of our own workmen. l am
protectionist and in many
respects differ from those
who are preaching protection
in this campaign. Were 1t not for the
labor organizations there would be no
protection for the men who work.
Were it not for the grand and well dis

WASHINGTON, Oct. "a. - Protests
have been received at the treasury de-
partment against the practice of the
collector Of customs at Eagle Pass,
Texas, Of requiring separate manifests
for each and every railway car arriving
with merchandise from Mexico and
charging fee of % cents on receiving
each such manifest. In letter to the
collector on the subject, Acting Secre-
tary Thompson says that so far as i'm
portations from Mexico OF merchandise
in hulk such as coal, bullion and ores
are concerned, the department approves
the plan suggested of requiring but one
manifest for each train instead of re-
quiring a separate manifest for each
car of the same, and the collector is in
structed to modify his practice accord
ingly. The secretary adds that such
manifests will be subject to no fees for
receiving the same, but a fee of 20 cents
will be charged under the provisions of
the general free list for permit to land
or deliver goods from each train.
