TRANSFER PROTEST.
A Correspondent Who Claims
Matters Are Not Right.

To the Editor Of the Globe
A number of street car patrons would
like an explanation upon matter of in
terest TO themselves, and perhaps to Mr..
Lowry.
A party of i've took the car at Minne-
haha Falls for st. Paul. Reaching Min
neapolis at Washington avenue they
received a transfer check, which en-
titled them TO ride on the inuerurban
up to Midway. Shortly after entering
the interurban car the conductor de-
manded the fares. The transfer checks
were handed to him. He refused to
take them, saying his orders were to
take five cents from passengers who
had transfer checks. and il they got off
before reaching Midway the five cents
would be returned to them. The five
passengers refused to pay the five cents.
and stated to the conductor that il he
did not accept the transfers he could
put them off the car. After consider
able of parleylng the conductor went
on, refusing to take the transfer checks,
but not collecting any money.
am told that the way this thing is
managed is that if the fare is collected
and the transfers hot taken the five
cents is not returned unless the passen-
ger gets off block or so before reach
ing Midway. This forces the passen-
gers to wait until the next car comes
around before they can continue their
journey.
Why the public has stood this incon-
yenience thus long cannot understand.
If the transfer has any value whatever
the company is compelled to take it,
and the fact that it did not enforce the
rule in the case of these five passengers
shows clearly that it dareS not have this
matter tested.
Many passengers. rather than stand
this Inconvenience of getting off and
waiting for the next car, pay the extra
nickel and remain in the car. AS the
rule now is, every through passenger
is subjected to this outrageous incon-
venience. This matter is ON par with
the outrage which the street railway
company attempted to perpe:rate upon
the st. Paul public in exact.ng double
fare from all passengers who got on the
cars OH Wabasha or Fifth street and
went around the loop, and if the riding
public will use the same effective
method in calling Lowry to an account
for this a. in that case feel satisfied
stop will be put to 1t. II.

BETWEEN TWO FIRES.
Van Pabst's Command Suffered
Heavy Loss.


THE HAGUE, Aug. 29.-Later advices
received from L9mbok say That the at
tacks upon the different columns of
Dutch troops were the result of a pre-
concerted plan upon the part Of the
leading native chiefs of the Bali uese.
Col. Van Pabst's column. after seeing
the promises of the chiefs executed, was
returning to 1jakra Negara when it was
attacked. while fording the river Babak,
by the Balinese whose hostility was eX-
pected. The column only succe eded in
Tegaining the road to the Tjakara
Negara after sharp fighting and heavy
losses. After harassing retreat, the
V"n Pabst column was approaching
Tjakara Negara without seeing any
further signs of the enemy when
suddenly from the walls of
that place, from every loophole and
every point of vantage. a hail storm of
bullets was poured into the column of
the Dutch troops. The latter were
completely taken by surprise, and be-
gan to falter. TO make matters worse
the Balinese had no sooner opened fire
upon the head of the column than its
rear was also exposed to terrible rifle
fire. Thus the advance and the retreat
of the column were alike cut Off. The
Dutch troops were completely

that Annandale was net Arnol. The

THE HAGUE, Aug. 29.-The official
journal today published dispatch
which shows that the disaster to the
Dutch forces, operating against the
rajah of the. island of Lombok, near
Java, were much more serious than at
first supposed. The dispatch says that
Gen. Vetter, the commander of the ex-
pedition, was surprised at II O'clock at
night, near .Tiakara Negara. The fire
was continuous until morning, and the
Dutch III this engagement lost fourteen
killed and thirty-ive wounded. AS the
water supply Of the column failed, and
foraglng was impossible, the Dutch
troops were compelled to retreat towards
Mataram. the capital of the island.
During the retreat the Dutch lost heav-
lily, being continually harassed by the
natives, and at one portion of the route
they found that barricades had been
raised. These distractions were so
stoutly defended by the native warriors
that the troops were unable to force
passage, aud were, consequently,
compelled to make long de-
tour around the blockaded route, and
in so doing they lost more men. The
Dutch succeeded In reaching Ampenon
Aug. 2 with total of casualties far in
excess of the number at first reported.
The killed included four officers and
siXty-two men; there were % off GERS
and 1873 men wounded and officers and
14S men missing. In addition, the Vet
ter column last four field guns. but this
is not all. 1t now appears that two other
columns Of Dutch troops operating
upon the same island have sustained
heavy losses and have endured much
suffering. These are the columns CON-
manded by Coils. Van Pabst and Ely
welt. These columns have been operat-
ing separately and have also succeeded
in reaching Ampenon. The losses are
not stated, but they are admitted to be
heavy. Col. Van Pabst was among
the officers killed among his troops
Five steamers carrying troops and field
guns leave Java for Lombok tomorrow,
