MIR. EGAN ExpLoDEs A BOMB
In the Meeting of the Western
Freight AssnCiafion.

CHICAGO, June 29.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. General Manager Egan, of the
Chicago, ST. Paul & Kansas City railroad,
bursted bomb in the meeting of the West
ern Freight association to-day by the an
nouncement that by July 5 his road would
put into effect the low commodity tariff
adopted by the northwestern roads to st
Paul. 1t will be remembered this tariff is
reduction of about as per cent on the 60-cent
basis from Chicago to st. Paul 1t was
adopted as means of setting the previous
break to 2S-Cent basis and the scaling down
of many staple articles to cents and 10 cents
hundred. AS kind of patchwork make
shift, this tariff would have answered tempo
rarily provided it did not extend farther
west than to the Chicago and ST. Paul
roads. There was great fear also
that it would extend to the Iowa
local rates and still farther implicate the sit
uation in that state. The worst that could
possibly happen was that the ratio would
extend to the Missouri river points, involv-
ing every western road in the fight and low
ering rates to a point where the gross earn
ings would hardly pay for axle grease. The
sliding scale of rates shown in the COM
modify tariff to go into effect July is almost
fatal to uniformity. 1t was based on the ne
cessities OF the Chicago merchants and the
low rates via the lake liues. This will nev-
itably lead to a misunderstanding and to still
further reductions.
The Western Freight association could not
stand the effect of General Manager Egan's
announcement 1t Immediately adjourned
after appointing the Rock Island, ST. Paul
81 Northwestern representatives q commit
tee to labor with Mr. Egan and get him to
withdraw his notice. 1t is not thought the
persuasion committee can do anything. The
Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City, while not
considered strong road, is fighter and no
matter how weak the road If il lowers rates
all other lines must meet the reduction. II
is the general opinion among the members of
the association that Mr. Egan will not yield
from The stand taken unless the northwestern
roads agree not to put into effect the low
commodity tariff. In case they do, the Chi
cago freight bureau will Immediately bring
suit against every st. Paul road, charging
discrimination. The simple production of
their tariffs in court will prove the case
against the roads, and under the amended
interstate commerce act each officer en-
forcing the discrimination must he fined
81, 600 and imprisoned two years in the peni-
tentiary. 1t is case of his satanic majesty
or the deep sea with the ST. Paul roads.
Chairman Abbott, of the Western States
Passenger association, gives notice that by
authority of the general manager OF the

portion OF the Wabash system cast of the

LONEGNECKER WAITING.
He sExpects to Finally Indict Sui


CnHCAGo, June 29.-None of the prisoners
or suspects We're represented in court when
the Cronin grand jury reported to Judge
Shepard. Few persons were present be-
sides the officials except number of news
paper men. After the last formali-
ties of the long inquisltion were ended,
States Attorney Longenecker told a number
of reporters that he had not yet dropped the
case in its relation to Alexander Sullivan.
The states attorney claimed that the grand
jury had been unable, owing to the expira-
tion of its term, to hear all the evidence that
could be presented against MIR. Sullivan. In
quiry as to Sullivan would be continued
to the next grand jury. Whether it
would be another special panel or regular
body could not at present be stated. 1t was
conceded by Mr.. Longenecker, in private
conversation, that up to the moment that the
term Of the grand jury expired, the authori-
ties had not secured sufficient evidence upon
which Sullivan could be convicted. An in
dictment of him, therefore, so
the states attorney reasoned, would
undoubtedly result in an immediate trial
and acquittal, barring forever any other
proceeding, the result of which, from Long
enecker's standpoint, was not to be desired.
Anothe reason for the states attorneys
course Is said to be the hope on his part that
before the trial of the men indicted ends
some of them may be induced, through hope
of saving their own necks, to give evidence
directly incriminating Sullivan.

A nixsler1ous Case

DEs MONIES, Ia, June 29.-[Special Tele-
gram to THE Bee IA very mysterious case
is reported from Onion Mills, Powesheik
county, where faI named Ferguson and
his son, % years old, were plowing corn.
Wher night came the father went home and
supposed the son would follow. He did not,
and at II o'clock, becoming alarmed, the
father went back and found the team hitched
in the field, but no boy in sight. Near the
river his clothes were found and it was sup
posed that he had gone in bathing and been
drowned. The neighbors were alarmed and
they dragged the river all night. The next
day tracks were seen leading to an old unoc-
cupied house. They followed them and in a
corner of the room they found the young man
entirely naked, bound hand and foot and
gagged so that he could not speak. He was
almost unconscious and could give no account
of himself or explain how he was brought
there. The case is shrouded in great mys-
terry so far.

DID HARRISON SAY sos
Views on the Race Question That
Startle CoIored peopIe


WASHINGTON, June 29.--Washington dis
patches 70 several papers dated June "a,
quoted the president as having spoken as fol-
lows in recent conversation with a south
ern delegation. "Perhaps / comprehend this
question better than any OF you gentlemen
think, and sympathize with your feelings in
regard to the colored people more than you
know. Certainly in your place | would feel
as you do. Personal contact with an alien
race In social, political and professional life
would not be agreeable TO me. / would not
like 20 see a negro mayor or postmaster Of
indianapolis, nor representing the power and
authority of the. United States in fiscal or
administrative capacity Mt my own home 1t
would not be agreeable TO me to practice my
profession before colored federal judge, or
to meet a negro at federal bar as United
States attorney / do not intend to impose
upon the people of the south, conditions
which / would think rather hard IL they
were imposed upon me-"
Ex-senator Bruce and Auditor Lynch
called at the Associated press office aud re-
quested that as wide circulation as possible
be given the following statement made by
them in relation to the above: I'VE feel
authorized to say that the report of such con-
versation is erroneous. We have had occa-
sion to call on the president several times,
and on each occasion he freely expressed
himself on matters pertaining 10 the colored
race, and we do not hesitate to say his views
commend him to the appreciation of the col
ored people throughout the country. The
last time we called on hin was Wednesday,
when we presented an address recently
adopted by conference of colored men held
at Jackson, Miss, June 13. That address,
among other things, declares that Mr.. Harri-
son is president not of one section, but of the
whole country; not of one race, but of all
races OF which our citizenship is composed.
His ambition Is 10 destroy rather than to
mostly. The president assured the delega-
ton that his own position upon that subject
could not have been more accurately and cor
rectly stated. The colored men, he stated,
should not ask to be appointed to office
simply on account OF their color, nor should
their color be a ground of objection"
Besides, the appointments already made by
the president ought, Bruce ana Lynch think,
to satisfy everybody that he entertains no
such sentiments as those he is alleged to
have expressed in the above dispatch. They
assert positively that he entertains no such
seutinentS.
