NORTHERN PACIFIC CUT.
All-Ral Rates to San Francisco Re-
duced to $40.

.a5E e.. OuCcu TO S40.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-The Northern Pa
cific has announced an all-rail rate
from San Francisco to st. Paul of $45
first class and $40 second class. This
is cut in the first class rate of $40, and
$3.50 in the second class. 1t is now
more than likely that serious troubles
will grow out of the present condition
OF affairs and that war will be the in
evitable outcome. The Southern Pa
cific has requested its Eastern connec
lions to join it in making rates equal to
those put into effect by the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific and if
it succeeds in winning them over to its
way Of thinking the Union Pacific will
be dragged into the row, and it will
then be almost an impossibility to pre-
vent the Generalization from spreading
east Of the Missouri river.

MINES MUST CLOSE DOWN.
Drop in the Price OF silver Will Have
Bad Results.

Bad Results.
DENVER, June 2S.-When the an
nouncement was made on the Mining
Exchange during the morning that sill
yer had dropped to " cents per ounce
the effect was startling. Every sign Of
activity on the exchange vanished in
moment. All through the first call not
q sound was heard save the voice of
the caller. Not an offer or bid was
made. The brokers sat around and dis
cussed the matter in most depressed
manner. But there was a unanimity
of feeling with regard to the result.
This feeling is that the great reduction
in the price Of silver means the closing
down of the low grade and many of the
high grade silver properties of the
state.

His Cottage at Buzzard's Bay Burned-A
Woman Cremated.
BUZZARD's BAY. Mass, April 3.-The
beautiful summer residence Joe Jefferson,
the actor, was totally destroyed by fire
Saturday. Helen McGrath, the cook,
perished in the flames. The fire was caused
by gasoline. Two other women were in
imminent peril, but were saved by the
hired man, Mr.. Wright. He made a heroic
effort to get back to Miss McGrath, and
was severely burned while doing SO, but it
was vain. Mrs. jefferson was ill in bed
and escaped by a very narrow margin.
Nothing in the house was saved.
Loss Quarter of Million.
The cottage was treasure house of won
derful antiques and rare pieces of bric-a-
brac, all of which were burned, entailing a
loss roughly estimated at S250,O00. The
house itself has become historic as the spot
where many famous statesmen and actors
have been entertained by the genial host.
President Cleveland had frequently shared
Jefferson's hospitality there. Governor
Russell, who had been fishing in a neigh
boring stream, was one of the first to ar
rive at the scene and he was of great assist
auce to Mrs. jefferson.

holders in his district and called at tention
to The fact that President Harrison made
no removals in the district of Democrats,
letting them serve out their terms Presi-
dent Cleveland in reply said to Henderson
that he did not expect to make any changes
himself before the expiration of the four
year term of office, except in cases where
he felt compelled by circumstances to
make removals earlier. Another interest
ing remark was made by the president to a
couple of gentlemen who called to discuss
the public printers Office. The informa-
tion they received led them to believe that
Public Printer Palmer would be per-
mitted to continue in office until the close
of his term.
No Politics in the Navy Yards.
An order issued by Secretary Herbert
shows that he intends to continue the
policy adopted by Secretary Tracy by re-
moving places in the navy yards from poll
tical influence and requiring appointments
and promotions therein to be based on fit
ness as shown by examinations. Examin-
tions to places as superintendent of the
rope walk at Boston, electrician at New
York and assistant electrician at Norfolk,
will be held in those cities on the 18th inst
and will be the same in scope as during the
last administration.

An Effort to Change Kcntucky's Capital.
1t begins to look as if the fight Ton
removing the State capital from
Frankfort to Louisville is in earnest
this time. The Louisville council has
ordered an election to be held to-day
(27th) on propositions to issue
81 900, 600 of bonds, which will be
given the State, together with suit
able building site, if the capital IS
removed to that place.
Lexington has offered S2oo, oo0
and building site. The Legislature
is strongly in favor of moving the
capital away from Frankfort, and I'M
less this Legislature does it, accord
ing to the new constitution, it must
remain where it is. 1t is confidently
claimed by the friends Of removal
that Louisville will vote the bonds
and that the new State buildings
WILDE erected there.
