Salt Rates.

Roads East OF Chicago in War on
Salt Rates.
CHICAGO, Aug. PA fight has broken
out among the roads east of Chicago
over salt rates. 1t came about through
the sharp competition of the rival salt
interests of Saginaw Valley and Cleve-
land, both of which have been for
long time struggling to get control of
the trade of Chicago packers. Formerly
Saginaw valley enjoyed a differential
on this traffic, but for the past six
months the rate has been the same for
both points. In spite OF this eQualiZa-
not lose the fOOthOid it had gained in
Chicago. but continued to practically
mOnopOliZe the business. Aug. II a
meeting of the salt committee of the
Central Traffic association was held at
Toledo and proposition to reduce the
rate on salt was considered.
No agreement was reached and no ac-
ton taken, but ii is now claimed that on
the very date of this meeting Cleveland
parties sold to Chicago packers about
10000 barrels of salt, and on the 10Th the
Lake Shore road put into effect a re-
duced rate on that commodity from
Cleveland to Chicago. The new rate is
81 per ton. or 10 cents per barrel, drop
of 5 cents per barrel below the rate
before. Although the Lake Shore COM
piled with the law in issuing its re-
duced tariff, il did not give the usual
ten days notice to its competitors and
they are satisfied that it had promised
the Cleveland shippers, prior to the
meeting of the 14th, that the reduction
would be made. The Michigan Central,
the Chicago & Grand Trunk and the
Flint & Pere Marquette roads have
given notice that they will meet the
rate from Saginaw valley. taking effect

it is generally attributed to manipulation, as
all the late moves in that stock have been. it

An Alleged Scheme to Dignity the
Militia.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2l.-The Post-Dis-
patch this afternoon says: A move
ment has been set on foot to put the
militia of the states under national pay
and supervision. 1t was stated by Off
GERS Of the regular army at Camp Wick
ham. Mo, the other day, and circulars
and personal letters concerning it are
now flying thick and fast about the
country. 1t is the most radical plan 10
change the condition of the militia of
the country that has risen since the war.
A day or two before the tents of Camp
Wickham were struck. Col. Milton
Moore called together all the soldiers
who were in camp and said that two
officers of the army wished to adj
dress them uDOn a subject of prime
Importance to the militia. The officers
were Lieut. Robert X Evans, Twelfth
infantry, and Lieut.. James Batcheller,
of the Twenty-fOuTth infantry. Lieut..
Evans is stationed at Fort LeavenwOrth.
and had come to Camp Wickham with
the regular army detail assigned to as
sist in the camp instruction. Lieut..
Batcheller is on temporary duty at Fort
LeavenWOrth, and had come to Camp
Wickham with his friend, Lieut.. Evans.
AUOuJ fUU uleu duoMcIeu TIE luNlld-
tion of Col. Moore and heard the two
army officers outline their plan. The
two soldiers preached their proposition
with great enthusiasm, first by saying
that, having carefully made a compar-
ison of the standing army of the United
States with the armies of other coun-
tries, they had concluded that some
thing must be done to dignity the mill
tary forces of this country. A cOnsti-
tuition OF the Association of National
Guards of the United States" was then
produced. The main objects of the as
ISOLATION were declared 10 be: To place
the national guard OF the various states
under the control of the secretary of
war, and to receive financial aid from
congress; to secure uniformity in equip
ment and training, and to be prepared
at all times to answer a cali from con-
gress for national defense. Adjt. Gen.
Wickham, of Missouri, believes the
scheme feasible one, and that view of
the proposed change in the national
guard affairs is held 10y many military
men of high standing, both in this state
and at Washington.

One of tI.c Sad consequences of the
Hot VyeatheT-A Timely Sugges-
ton.
A man was walking along Broadway,
in New York city, recently, who was
seen to stagger. The observers first
thought him intoxicated, but as he
reeled and fell 10 the sidewalk heavily,
it was discovered that he was sunStruck.
People said il was the result of the hot
weather. 1t was not. The man had
failed to take proper care and precau-
ton.
Do you know, gentle reader, what you
need in hot weather?
Is it rest? Not necessarily.
Is it plenty OF iced drinks? BY no
means.
Is it hearty food? Not at all.
1t is not your body that gets run
down; but your nervous system that
becomes debilitated. Weakness, de-
Spondency, WEAKNESS, and the lndtf-
mite thing, known as malaria. do not
come from bodily weaknesses or physl-
cal causes. but are invariably due TO
nervous exhaustion or disorders. Did
YOU not know that the nerves require
food? Did you not know that the
nerves require care, nursing and atten-
ton lust as much as a baby does. Bring
up your nerve-tnne and see If you do
not seem TO be another person; see how
troubles Will vanish and how pleasant
life Will seem.
Do you ask how this can be done?
All. there is the difficult question. Many
things have been suggested; lew are
good. There is. however, one recent
discovery which is reliable, which Is
pure, which is an absolute nerve food.
This preparation, which is scientific
discovery and not bitters, nervine or
sarsaparilia, is Paine'S celery com
pound. 1t is surprising what an effect
this pure and palatabie compound is
having upon peoples nerves. Where
there was weakness, exhaustion, trem-
bling and entire loss of happiness there
is now strength, activity, clear COM
plexiOn, bright eyes and happiness.
There are thousands of people who have
discovered this secret of health and long
life: there are thousands of others who
are destined to do so. Are you one OF
the number? Every reliable dealer IN
America has it. Most persons who try
to keep pace with the march of improve
ment use it. From its use the Amerl-
can nation, which has been considered
nervous nation, is becoming stronger
and more happy.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-A. l.. Solomon.
general agent of the Baron de Hirsch
fund in this country, when shown the
letter of Senator Chandler TO Secretary
Foster in reference to Jewish immigra-

their fingers upon any Jews who had
arrived from Russia and had become a
public charge. and that they are in
every sense desirable immigrants. Mr..
Solomon thinks Mr.. Chandler misinter-
prets the spirit of not only the Trainer
of the law. but of the congress which
passed upon it, for the American law
makers are not so illiberal as TO become
a party to any law that would shut out
a class of people who are not really i'm
migrants, but refugees driven from
their home by cruel government.
