RAILROAD WAR.

Prospects Good for One Between Kansas
City and the Burlington.
The prospect Of a war between the Kan
sas City and the Burlington is imminent.
Such an outbreak would Of course involve
the Other lines 10 the association. The
Kansas City has not forgiven the Burline-
ton for having scooped ont two or three fat
delegations from under IL very clutches
during the republican convention, and a.
the latter road has made a big bid for traffic
from tho Twin Cities to tho Chicago con-
vention the Kansas City has fallen fight in
limo with a dirsful determination and q
sharp knife. The Burlington secured the
Dorsn faction, and then cast ito eve upon
tho other crowd. but the Kansas City
stepped in and gobbled that up COM
placently and without apparent effort.
Then came the wrangle over the Jefferson
club. The Omaha looked upon that dele
CATION ~ its peculiar prey. and the Bur
linRton began to lay seductive snares. but
tbs Kanas City came to the front with q IS
cut on the tariff rats and gobbled this
monthful also. And yet ii ID ready for
more. The probabilities are that the little
incident will lead to 4 lively time among
oil the associated roads.

AN A. D. U. W. DECISION,

Rendered Against tho Grand Lodge oi
Oregon.
An important case has just been decided
by the supreme court Of Oregon in which
tho grand lodge OF that jurisdiction was Dc.
fsndant says the Oversesr. Of ~. Louis,
Mo. II seems that . member took out
certificate payable TO his wife. but after
wards becoming divorced from her made it
payable to = fr!snd. Prior TO the members
death the grand lodge adopted . Law that
all certificates should be made payable to
some member Of the family Of the msrnber
or : blood relative OF one, dependents upon
him for support. This nnernbsr refused TO
change his certificate and died. The bsnen-
ciary brought suit against the grand lodge,
when II declined to pay on tho ground that
the beneficiary was mot entitled to any ben
eat under it, laws. The supreme court de-
cided that the grand lodge had no power, to
compel members to change their certificates
under such circumstances, and the law
could not 30 made retroactive in its effects.
This decision ia one Of the most important
that has been rendered for many years and
doubtless will DO followed by other courts.

The 6 Meetings Of the MoltanaCircuit,

The 6 Meetings Of the koltanaCircuit,
AS shown above, present to the
horsemen Of the country 43 actual
days of racing, and provide one
hundred thousand dollarsin purses
and added money to stakes.
The programme includes run
ming, trotting and pacing.
The tracks are all full mile,
regulation, and no expense has
been spared to make them both
safe and fast.
The stables are large and
commodious.
The grounds are located within
easy distance of the various cities
and are connected with them by
steam railroads or electric motors.
The betting privileges will be
in the hands of capable men, well
known to all horsemen. Last
year, with five meetings, about
100000 passed through the
pools, aside from the books; and
with the increased interest and
high class of contests expected,
it is certainly safe to predict larger
sales this year.
Our circuit is the center of rae
ing for the Pacific coast and
Rocky Mountains. Horsemen
coming from the south can at
tend the May.June running meet
ing at Denver, where $4,000
are offered in purses, and the
mixed meeting commencing June
II, on the new mile track at Salt
Lake City, where purses aggre-
gate $4,000; or coming from
the northwest can follow the
Spring meetings at Portland,
Walla Walla, Spokane Falls, and
other points in Washington and
Oregon, finishing the Montana
circuit in ample time for the Fall
races in other sections.
Nothing will be left undone by
the officers of the different asso-
Citations to insure the comfort and
convenience of owners and train
ers who attend and enter horses
on the circuit.

SHIPS BURNED AT SEA.
Fears That Two Are Lost With
All Hands


LONDON, Jan. 81. - The Imperial
Prince, British steamship, has arrived
at Portland on her way to Leith. Capt.
Cox, her commander, reports that when
in latitude 4S degrees north, longitude
48 west, the morning of Jan. 16 about
IL O'Clock, he saw clouds of smoke and
volume of flame which assembled
heayenward as though caused by an
explosion. He subsequently discovered
that a ship was on fire quite distan ce
away and Immediately made prepare
lions to go TO the rescue, but after a
struggle Of two hours or more with the
elements had to abandon the project.
Finally heavy squat came up and the
atmosphere became so thick that the
ship in distress was lost TO view. When
the mist raised no trace of the burning
shlDscOuld be seen.
Lit is the general opinion that the crew
of the ship must have perisheo, as Capt
Cox says it would be impossible for a
life boat TO live in the tempestuous sea
that prevailed. Nothing could be found
to indicate either the name or national
lty OF the burned ship. 1t will be re-
which arrived at Liverpool yesterday,
observed large steamer on fire, but
could not see any boats in the water nor
the slightest sign of life about the burn
ing ship. Considerable anxiety prevails
In maritime circles over these reports,
and 1t is concluded on all sides that two
ships may have recently been destroyed
by fire at sea. Persons aboard all in
coming steamers are closely questioned
for news that would give an inkling as
to the indeDtlty of the lost ships.

it became greatly swollen and stiff. l
used two bottles of patent liniment,
which did not relieve me. A physician
was called, who ordered the limb to be
