RATES GO UP.
Transcontinental Lines Have Come
to an Agreement.


CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Tbe Transcontinental
lines decided to-day that, effective Marc h
l, round-trip rates to the Pacific Coas t
would be advanced $40. except in the case
OF the Shasta route, where the advance will
be only 81 80. All round-trip rates in
points in Montana and Colorado have been
withdrawn for portion of the year. In
stead of putting them on sale for the entire
year, as heretofore, the ronnd-trip tickets
will be on sale only from May to Septem-
Der 1. Colorado and Utah rates from the
Missouri River will be restored to the old
basis of $18 rs. the present rate being
$40 rs. This action, the roads claim, is
not an elevation of the rate, but restora-
ton of the tariff which was in effect before
the present decentralization began. This
change on the Utah and Colorado rates,
which become effective at once, carries
with it the restoration of the old local
rates between Colorado and Utah points to
the same basis in the same proportion as
the through rates.
The general meeting of the Western
lines adjourned this morning to allow the
Transcontinental lines to meet, but is
scheduled to meet again in the morning.
The facility with which the Transconti-
mental lines got together to-day practi-
cally removes all the obstacles in The path
of the formation of general association.

AS TURKS TELL 1T.
The Armenians in ODen
Revolt.
SHOT DOWN AS REBELS.
Having Arms in Their Hands at
the Time.
NO UNARMED MEN MASsACRED
On the Contrary II Was the Turks
Who Were Led to the
Slaughter.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. - The Turkish
legation has received the following COM
municatlon regarding the Armenian
troubles:
Toward the end of July last and under
the instigation of an Armenian named
Hamparteoun. the men of ten Armenian
villages near Moosh formed separate bands
and, armed with guns, daggers, hatchets
and other instruments. attacked the tribe
of Delikan. killed few men of that tribe
and afterward fell on the tribes of Beki-
ran and RadlkaD. These bands burned
alive Hadji, nephew of Eumer Agha. one
of the chiefs of the Bekiran tribe, and not
only assaulted Mussulman women, but
also put them to death in an atroeious
manner. Men were also treated in a most
fefocious way. Not satisfied with all these
lawless and criminal proceedings, the
same bands burned also few villages III
habited by Mussulman people.
Thanks. however. to the measures
taken by the lawful authorities. the band
in question was dispersed and the insur-
gent chief, Ramp parteoun, as we'll as the
priest. Mighirditch of Kazu-Kilisse, and
other guilty persons, were arrested and
brought before the Justices. The state
ment often published in some of the Euro
pean papers that some of the regular
troops killed defenseless men and women
is utterly untrue. No individual carrying
no arms was killed. Twenty insurgents
who surrendered were treated with all
due consideration, and after their deposi-
tiOns before the legal authorities of Moosh
were taken they were given their freedom.
II was these twenty insurgents who indi-
Gated the place where the chief. Hampar-
teoun, and his accomplices were hiding.
The above facts show that among the
insurgents only twenty surrendered, and
with the exception of the brigands, who
broke in revolt, no one else was i'll
treated"

DUBIOUS MR.. REILLY.
His Bill Will Not Come Up at This
Session.

WASHINGTON, Dee. apparently the
Pacific Railroad funding bill promoters are
much discouraged over the outlook for
that measures enactment this winter, and
Chairman Reilly himself is ready 10 admit
that the prospects for action Rt this session
are doubtful. After having a talk with the
members of his committee, he acknowl-
edged to Judge Mcguire to-day that the
bill might not be called up this session. as
several members of the Pacific Railroads
Committee who at the last session were
supporting his bill are now backSliding.
He asked Mcguire if the Californians
intended to put up strong fight and
whether they would go to the extent of fill
clustering. Judge Mcguire replied that
they would.
Lobbyist Boyd, after a conversation
with Reilly and other members of the
Pacific Roads Committee. said to THE
CALL correspondent to-day that the bill
would not pass at this session. There is
possibility that the Huntington crowd are
trying TO lull the vigilance Of the opposi-
tion and steal a march on them, but judge
Mcguire and his colleagues will watch
these movements sharply.
