New Regulations Adopted by All the
Railroads.
At q meeting of the representatives Of
western railroads in Chicago on the
oath inst. action to regulate the issu-
ing OF passes to persons accompanying
live stock shipments was taken and
Yankton agents yesterday received
copies OF she rules enacted. This action
was calisd forth by the abuse of prjviI-
eyes by shippers. Heretofore one man
has been passed both ways with each
car and shippers have made money by
obtaining passes and selling them to
disinterested persons. The rules will
not affect shipments, as every point on
western lines comes under the iuslsdic-
tion of this order. Ii will go into effect
February 18th.
l. One man will be passed in charge
OF n or two oars of horsss, mules or
cattle. or with two cars of hogs or sheep,
or with one car of emigrsnt movables
when the latter contains horses, mules
or cattle. No return pass to be given.
Q One man will be passed each way
with three or more cars OF horses, males
or cattle, hogs or sheap; two men each
way in charge OF six or more cars in one
train and under the same ownership two
men 10 be the maximum lumber to be
passed with any shipment under the
same ownership in the same train.
8. Return passes for men in charge OF
horses to be used within thirty days, and
for men in charge of other stock within
three days after cars arrive. At terminal
points OF destination points on these
lines the return passage to be commenced

GEN. N'COOk'S WARCRY
England and America Should Bid
Germany Get Out Of Our Highway
AND MAKE THEM DO IT, TOO.
No Power Has Any Right In the Western
Pacific Except Great Britain and tho
United states-what Blaine's
Policy Would Be.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Gen. Edward
McCo"k, at one time minister to the
Hawaiian islands, and the diplomat who
negotiated the reciprocity treaty with
that country, was seen by a correspond
ent, and asked for his views on Samoan
matters, McCook said:
..Bayard does not evidently appreciate
the fact that any power, even a second
class, naval power, holding the Ha-
waiian or Samoan islands, would dom.
mate the m of the North Pacific.
Ii you look at the map you will see that
these two groups of islands are the only
two coaling stations we can have be-
tween San Fran cisco and China, or San
Francisco and Australia. They are the
only ports where our merchantmen could
look for assistance and supplies in distress,
and the only places were orr war yes
sells could coal and refit in the event of
a wal with a foreign power. No power
except England and the United States
has any bushes to establish itself in the
western Pacific. Such u thing would
make a practical barrier between the
United States and Australia in the event
Of war. No power has any right there
except the United States and England.
How quickly Germany would fight if
any great power attempted to establish
itself in the German ocean. We should
be just as ready to fight if Germany
should attempt to establish itself on the
only line of communication we have on
the Pacific ocean between our country
and Asia and Oceanica. 1t is undigni-
fled and unworthy Of our repub-
tic to procrastinate about this. Congress,
] think, should at once pass a resolution
requesting Germany to get out Of our
highway, and then, if they won't get
out, make them do it. Prove to the
world that we still possess the manhood
of our nationality which we had when
Seward instruet.d me to say to the En-
.glish commissioner that any attempt of
English men-of-war to interfere with
the autonomy of the Haw aiian govern
ment, or to land troopH upon any: of
their islands, would be accepted by the
government of the United States as a
declaration of war. 1t seems to me that
the present war cry of both England
and America should be, "Get out Of
highway"

Fred Grant Said to BE a Candidate for
That Mission.
New York, Jan. 30.-The report that
Col. Fred Grant is an applicant for the
office of minister to China is apparently
well founded. Already he has called to
his help the services of friends who are
supposed to be influential with Gen.
Harrison, and his application and his
Endorsements will be filed early when
Harrison's administration begins. Col
Grant has had his eye on a foreign mis-
sion ever since he was defeated when he
ran for secretary of state. The Chinese
government always showed extraordi-
nary interest in Gen. Grant, and Col.
Grant, it is said, decided the post of
minister to China was the recognition
which he would ask from the admins
tration.
