Believed That the Rate War Cannot BE
Patched Up.
CHICAGO, July 27.--At noon tie
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road
submitted to Chairman Caldwell, Of the
Western Passenger association, a long
report giving its grounds Of justification
for announcing q $l2 rate from Chicago
to Denver and return for the knights
Templar conclave. Chairman Caldwell
asked further time in which to give his
decision. His request was granted, and
the meeting adjourned for day.
It is now claimed by some Of the
Atchison's competitors that they win
be able to fasten upon that road itself
the responsibility for the first violation
of the original agreement
They hold that the Atchison was the
first to offer cut rate, and that all the
present decentralization Is really the ont
come Of that offer. Whether this il. an
empty boast or claim that can be sub
stantiated remains to be seen.
Any way it is believed that the $l2
rate win be put into effect Aug. s in
spite Of any evidence or argument that
may be introduced, or any ruling that
the chairman may make. The associa-
tion roads are not In position to offici-
ally announce their line Of action until
after the chairman has given bis de-
cision, and they are now awaiting that
decision with no little anxiety.

Interest In the Alice Mitchell Trial Un-
abated.
MEMPHIS, July "a. Notwithstanding
the intense heat the second week of the
Alice Mitchell trial opened with the
court room packed with people. Much
of the time was consumed by the law
yers in wrangling over technicalities and
as consequence only two witnesses
were examined Miss Mitchell was pres
emit as usual and showed no signs OF fa-
tigue
DR.. B. r. Turner, who has made the
study Of diseases of the mind speciality,
was the first witness for the defense He
detailed the matters discussed at inter
mails with the defendant. She told him
of her plans relative to marrying Freda
He asked her II she understood what
marriage fully meant. She replied that
she fully understood. Then he asked
her IL she did not know that one woman
could not marry another. She replied
that she could, or at least that she
could have married Freda, and would
have done ii. He asked her IL they
expected to have children and she said
| she knew they could have no children
but she insisted that she could marry
Freda and could not be talked ont of it.
Another thing that was noticeable was
her utter lack Of emotion ON all subjects
except when her affection for Freda
was spoken of. She showed no emotion
In discussing the tragedy itself or the
results Immediately preceding it, but
as soon as her love for Freda was spoken
Of her lips would quiver and her eyes
| I'LL with tears. He finished by giving it
as his opinion that the defendant was
insane and incurably so.
Miss johnson, the companion of Alice
Mitchell at the time Of the murder, was
recalled to the stand by the defense and
asked il she had ever seen Alice and
Freda Ward hug and kiss In public.
She said that Alice and Freda while
swinging in q hammock at Gold Dust
embraced and kissed each other re-
peatedly before large crowd of men.
The witness asked Alice If she was not
ashamed and she replied; II don't care
for what the hateful men think. I win
hug and kiss where and whenever
please

Mckinney stockade.
OMAHA, Neb., July 27.--A special TO
The Bee from Buffalo, Wy, says: Start
ling discoveries have been made at Fort
Mckinney. Keiser, soldier under
arrest at the post, has confessed that he
was hired to blow up the building in
which the stockmen were confined when
brought from the T. A. cattle ranch.
On this information gas pipe
was found during the morning under
the floor. 1t contained two sticks OF
giant powder, and the vacant space was.
filed with gun cotton. Keiser says he
was paid $25 In advance and was prom
ised $3.50 upon completion of the job,
1t was to be fired by IN electric friction
tube, but he pulled the wire too sharply,
and it came away without igniting the

Berkman is beginning to chafe under
under the strict regime and fare of the
county Jail and he Is more more morose
In his disposition than ever. He denies
that he Is acquainted with Knold, or
stopped at his house and when con-
fronted with man, who saw him in the

that under the six intorrnations fled
against him by Secretary Lovejoy,
charging felonious shooting, felonions
cutting and felonious entry he could,

Arrested the Head Center.
AT ll:50 FIVE police officers arrested in
Allegheny Henry Bauer, the head center
OF the anarchists of this region. At the
central station the officials stated to the
United Press that they regard the arrest
of Bauer as the most important since the
shooting. He is professional agitator
drawing his support from the anarchist
groups and devotes his time to the dis
tribntion of the revolutionary literature
received from Chicago. He lives with
shoemaker at 10 Spring Garden street
Allegheny, where he was captured. On
Sunday he was seen entering Knold'l
house with parcel. He has been par
tall yidentified as man who was with
Berkman in the corridor of the Car
negie company's building on Saturday
just before the shooting and, handel
Berkman d small package just as he en-
tered the elevator. This package Il
supposed to be either the revolver or tn,
cartridges, afterwards found in Berk
mans pocket. This development has q
far been kept secret by the police, al
though it Is admitted that the secont
man was seen In company with Berk
man on the street. A man named Pau
Eckcrt, who occupied q portion d
Knolds house, was for short time nm
der the suspicion of the police, but hi
statement being satisfactory, he wa
