The big cut in rates which the 500
line has announced to offset the boycott
of the Michigan Central and Grand
Rapids roads goes into effect next Mon
day, and from that time on it will be
war to the knife, with the 500 on the
defensive, and the two roads mentioned,
together with all the ST. Paul and Chi
cagO lines, as the aggreSSOrS.
The latter look upon the Soo's latest
action as costly experiment, and say
that the road will be forced to give in in
the end, as their direct connections will
be broken and passengers will not sub
nit to lay over twelve hours at Macki-
nav, waiting for either Michigan
Central or Grand Rapids train to
take them to their destination.
Then, again, 500 line tickets will
not be accepted by either road, and pas
sengers will be forced to buy new tick
cts and have their baggage rechecked.
These disadvantages, they say, will
offset the reduced rates, and before
many weeks the stubborn 500 will be
glad to have the boycott lifted, and en-
ter the St. Paul and Chicago rate sheet
with its competitors.
TO all of this the 500 people merely
reply: "Wait and see." Their passen-
gers. they say, will be as well cared for
as before, and their connections will be
such as to cause no possible trouble in
that direction. Said one of the officials
yesterday: 1.-The 500 line knows just
what it is about. 1t is very easy mat
ter to station an agent in Mackinaw who
will look after our interests and those
| OF our passengers. Our competitors
should profit from the Chicago & Alton
affair. We will not give In under any
consideration, and it does not lie in the
power of any other road to make u.s."
| CHICAGO, Jan. 28.-lt is claimed by
some that the 500 cut will have the
effect of bringing down rates between
ST. Paul and Chicago, but representa-
| tiveS of the Chlcago-St. Paul roads say
| that the amount of tirst-class business
between st. Paul and the East that will
come via Chicago in any case, will
amount to more in week than that go
ing via Mackinaw will in a year.

An Amateur Cruelty Slugged to
UnconSciOusness.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 2S.-Charles Vokes,
well-known prize tighter, and Bob
Browns young man who never fought in
a professional ring before met last night.
1t will probably prove fatal to Brown.
About $50 Cincinnati sports boarded
a ferry boat with the contestants and
went down the river. When ten miles
below ring was formed on the lower
deck. and the fight began. For thirteen
rounds it was a bruising contest, the
honors being even. In the fourteenth
round Fokes gave Brown full length
uppercut which met him full on
the jaw. He staggered and tried
to keep his feet, but in vain.
Time was called for the fifteenth
round and Brown, more dead than
alive, tried to Stagger in. VOkes hit
him again and he fell in heap.
Browns father, who was a spectator,
then rushed in and stopped the fight
The contest was given to VokeS.
Brown was unconscious, and on the trip
back to the city every effort was made
to resOre him. but i'll vain. Arriving at
Cincinnati after midnight Brown was
carried away Oh Stretcher, apparently
in dying condition.

liant just Now.

liant just Now.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2S.-President Egan,
of the Chicago, st. Paul & Kansas City
road, was at his Office in this city today,
having returned from trip involving
important business in the southwestern
territory OF the line. He is not feeling
particularly jubilant over the outlook.
When questioned Mr.. Egan said:
The volume of traffic from Kansas
City and other Missouri river points. as
well as the country beyond, naturally
tributary to Chicago, is not what it
ought to be, because the flow of too
much export grain has been turned
toward New Orleans. There is differ
ence of cents per 100 in the rates from
Kansas City to New Orleans as COM
pared with Atlantic seaboard points.
Shippers get the benefit of that differ
ence, consequently they are sending all
the grain they can South instead of
East. 1t has been going in such guam
titles recently that l understand there
Is now blockade at New Orleans"

The market opened at Ice lower prices, and
then II was brought up fraction, as the
sudden drop was thought to furnish cause
for a reaction. Gables were still unsatisfac-
tory to holders of wheat who were disposed to
sell to some extent. The exports from four
Atlantic ports were rather large, and includ-
ed 497, 600 bu of wheat and $4,000 pkgs flour
The present turn of the market was thought
to hinge upon the demand from abroad
that is at reduced prices. The winter wheat
prospect is good according TO fresh reports
from it. Other news bearing upon the fut-
ure of values was of a very indifferent char
acter. The feeling was generally weak
through the session. Wheat closed as fol-

CASPER TO THE COAST.
The Northwestern Will Build q
Through Line.


Through Line.
SIOUX CITY, Jan. 2S.-The informa-
ton sent from here few weeks ago to
the effect that the Chicago & North
western Railroad company proposed to
build a through line Of its own west of
Casper, Is being confirmed. The CON-
pany is accommodating immense supplies
OF iron, ties and other construction ma
terial at and in the neighbOrhood of
Casper. 1t has been collecting these
materials for some time. Soon after the
Union Pacific came into the control of
the Gould interest the Northwestern
foresaw that its exclusive arrangement
could not last, and began to prepare for
the change that was inevitable. Nego-
tiations have been in progress for some
time looking to the occupation of the
line of the Sweetwater q South Pass ny
the Northwestern. This line was Sc
lected by the pretentiOus Pacific Short
Line, and was taken possession of by it.
but there is no prospect that it will
ever build. The Northwestern has
bridge here, and an extension from Og-
den would give it all independent
line of its own to he coast. These an
many similar facts are pointed out by
prominent official of the Northwestern,
who declines to permit the use Of his
name.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-. Jan. 2S.-Surveyors
are now locating a line for the Balti-
more & Ohio through Hancock county,
ILL.,, from Havana to Keokuk. and the
work is progressing with all possible
speed. From Keokuk a line will be
surveyed to some point on the Omaha

road. the latter now reaching Trenton,
fifty miles east of this city. 1t is said to
be under tine control of the Baltimore Il
Ohio since last year, when they secured
the road for the purpose of reaching the
Missouri river by the way of ST. Joseph.
From this point the road will cross the
river, and network of lines will be
built to the West. The line from Tren-
ton to st. Joseph can be built at NOM
inal outlay, as no very serious grades
will be encountered. The scheme has
been contemplated by the Baltimore
