MORE RATE CUTTING.
The Burlington 81 Northern
Slashes at the Agreed G. A. II.


Rates.
Several weeks ago all the Chicago
roads in st. Paul entered into an agree
ment to charge SLIPS for round trip
ticket to Columbus, Ohio, during the
continuance of the G. A. r. encamp-
ment. Now the Burlington & Northern
offers rate of So, and justifies itself in
this move by declaring that other roads
had previously violated the agreement
by offering other inducements. 1t
claims that the st. Paul 81
Kansas City road has offered
free transportation for bands,
and promised to carry one sleeping car
load of people, consisting of the COM
mander and his staff, and give them a
free lunch on, the train between st.
Paul and Chicago. The Burlington
argues that such inducements to travel
over road are just the same as though
the price itself was reduced. There
was considerable curiosity manifested
yesterday to know what the other roads
in the agreement were going to do in
regard to the cut. The Northwestern
declared, through Mr.. Teasdale, that it
would not pay any attention to it, but
would follow the agreed rate OF Sl4.25,
provided the Milwaukee did not run
vestibuled trains. The st. Paul IL Kan
Sas City road was surprised at the cut
of the Burlington, and feared it would
work great injury to all the Chicago
roads. The officials of that road would
not follow the cut. The Wisconsin
Central would not, either.
THE MILWAUKEE, GOT THERE.
Early III August. after the rate of
S14.50 was agreed upon, the Milwaukee
IL st. Paul road jumped in quickly and
started to gather In all the q. A. K. peo-
pie it could. In this it was very sue
cessful, and secured nearly all that were
going to the encampment from CallfOr-
Oregon and the West and Northwest
generally. upon.the condition that ii any
other road made lower rate than Sl4.25
the Milwaukee and st. Paul would carry
them for the lowest rate. The Milwau-
kee IL st. Paul now claims that mas
much as it has secured the bulk of the
business the reduction made by the
Burlington Il Northern is simply spite
work and an exhibition of malice.
There is no doubt that the rates will go
considerably lower than $12 before the
fight is over, and that the other
roads will sell at the lowest figures the
Burlington IL Northern see fit to fix
upon. This will place the Milwaukee
d. St Paul in very unpleasant posi-
ton, for the reason that it has secured
the bulk of the business. and even if
the other roads reduce the rates to IS
or $40 they will carry so few that the
cut will not affect them to any percepti-
bic degree.

If THE high tariff is a guarantee of
good wages to wOrkingpeople, how is it
that wages have been cut down from 20
TO 80 per cent. since 1880? Take the
least reductions and still the average
wages of the past and present year will
not exceed SGT annually. They are
lower than in electromagnetic years
ago-under the lowest tariff known
since 1912. Can anything further be
needed to show that every step towards
protection depresses wages and. that
every step towards low tariff increases

Split on the Army Appropriation

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-There is an
other disagreement by the conference
committee on the army appropriation
bill. The conferees on the part of the
senate contend for the Hawley ord
nance amendments, and the conferees
on the part of the house refuse to con-
cur. All other differences have been
adjusted. 1t is probable that the dead
lock in conference will continue till the
Notifications bill is disposed of, and
then the army bill, which contains the
provisions for paying all branches of

SENATOR CULLoM is anxious to find
out whether the st. Clair fats canal is
wholly within Cadadian territory or
partly in the United States. While the
senator is awaiting a reply from the
secretary of war we can relieve his sus-
pense by informing him that Canada
OWNS one little slice of one end of the
canal, and if our Canadian friends do
not like the presidents retaliation talk
they can take that little slice for germ
and go off and start new canal some
where else.

IT Is the belief of Senator WILSON.
Of Iowa, that the success of the Demo
Gratis at the November election will give
them control of both branches of con-
greSS, the executive department. and in
time of the federal judiciary. But the
senator couples this announcement with
the expression of fear that when in
full control the Democrats will repeal
the war amendments to the constitu-
ton. There is no earthly reason why
he should think so. No Democrat has
ever suggested the repeal of the thir-
teenth, fourteenth or fifteenth amend
ments. No Democrat wants them re-
pealed. Mr.. WILSON'S feus in this re-
spect are stale and Improbable non
sense. 1t is one of the phantoms of the
bloody shirt.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Senator Gull
lom's resolution of inquiry offered and
adopted by the senate to-day, calling
upon the secretacy of war for lnforma-
ton as to whether the st. Clair flats
canal lies in whole or part in Canadian
territory, is based upon unofficial
but. as the senator thinks, Trustworthy
information, which has come to him
as chairman of the committee to iDyes-
ugate our commercial relations with
Canada. Though the resolution refers
only 10 the ST. Clair flats canal, the SEN
ator has information which leads to
grave suspicion that Detroit river. near
A mherstburg, and the Sault Ste. Marie
canal are also in part in Canadian terri
tory, a fact if it be a fact
which has an important incidental
bearing upon the matter of retail
lation. The following is an extract
from letter received from prominent
business man, whose name Senator
Cullom does not feel at liberty to pub
liSh, as the letter is private one, but
whose business gives the writer a
thorough familiarity with the subject
in hand:
Dear Sir-Noting the provisions of
the so-called retaliatory bill. now re-
ported TO the house of Representatives,
and that the president is to have
authority to cause Canadian yes
sells. to pay 20 cents per ton for
navigating our canals at Lake st. Clair
and the 500. wonder if it has been
considered that the improved channel
by which all our lake commerce passes
through the Detroit river at and near
Amherstburg is Canadian water. We
have spent hundreds of thousands of dol
lars to improve the British channel and
neglected our own. Now comes the tug
OF retaliation, and Canada may sink this
costly channel full of stone laden barges
ana stop all navigation Of the Detroit
river TO vessels, loaded deeper than
nine Or ten feet of water''

complaint was made by local en-
gineerS that the chief engineer

terday Dep~.y United States Marshal
Eberman went to the vessel
with a writ from the court to arrest the

received from Eberman, at Detroit, stat
ing that he had been seized
and made captive by the Of
