SWEEPING REDUCTION
Southern Pacific Carries the
War Into Africa.
Not Being Able to Win on Passenger
Lines, Freight Rates Are Re-
duced 16 Per Cent.

San Francisco, Nov. 25,-Vice-Presldent
Stubs and General Freight Agent Smurr,
of the Southern Pacific, held long con-
ference today and as result It was an
nounced that the company would begin
sweeping reduction In rates on freight
shipments between San Francisco ana
Portland. This will take effect Monday
next. The reductions range from 10 to 16
per cent upon existing class rates.
The reduction In freight rates between
here and Portland is but a new feature
of the rate war between the Southern
Pacific and the o. r. and N. After stu
dying the results Of the first weeks OPP
eratlons under the reduction I'm passenger
rates Mr.. Stubbs became convinced that
the Southern Pacific would have TO COM
plicate matters still further to win a
victory over its smaller competitor, FOR
It was patent to every one that the o. Il.
and N. could continue the rate war in
definitely and carry passengers for moth
Ing II II could set enough freight to pay
the operating expenses or the steamers.
The Southern Pacific will not now be
content with two-thirds OF all the passen-
ger busienss, but It will make vigorous
effort to get larger share Of the freight
traffic. II the reduced freight rates do
not secure this result, the company, 1t II
said, will put on a line Of freight steamers
between San Francisco and Portland to
carry freight at 81 per ton.

MKINLEY THE MAN
Senator ThurStOn Says the
People Believe in Him.
Believes That the POpulists in the
Senate Will Vote With the
Republicans.

New York, Nov. Ex-senator John NJ
Thurston, of Nebraska, is at the F.fth
Avenue hotel. In an interview today he
said.
THE Republicans of the West are for
Mckinley as the next president al candi-
date, first, last and all the time. The
strength of the Ohio man in the West
comes from the fact that the working
people believe In him. They know that
under the Mckinley law they were get
ting more pay than they are getting
now. Business was, generally speaking,
better, They are satisfied that Mckinley
had something to do with 1t, and they
want to vote for him for president
do you think that the Republicans
will be able to organize the United States
senate at the coming session."
Yes" he replied, II believe we will be
strong enough to assume control. / have
been in washington for a week, and /
can say that at the opening of the SEN
ate, the Republicans will start In and
re-organize that body. 1 believe that all
the Populist members Of the senate will
vote with the Republicans. That, at
least, is the understanding among the
leaders now, and do not think anything
will turn up to change the program.

who would write other than words %
praise OF the performance. The quar-
tette has been but recently orsanizsd
and two of the members have for Q Ions
time, through force OF circumstances
given much OF their attention and
energy to other than highly classical
music; but all four are conscientious
abs musicians, and she longer they
work together the better will be their
results. for there is superior talent in
the quartette. All they need 10 time
and the encouragement OF sppreciative
patronage for their efforts, to make a
most merisorious organization OF which
any city might we'll be proud.
AS 1t was Yesterday, the sudienc was
largely made up OF the best musicians
and most cultivated music lovers here,
and tina cordial applause after each
number, spoke for the intelligent enjoy
mems that was given by the performers.
Their first number, Moszkowskie
melodious little aerenata, was delicatcly
and delightfully."- played; their second,
the POGO edssio with variations OF
daydn's Kaiser Quartette, was more
serious in its motif; the we'll known
theme was taken in turn by the differ
ent instruments, with most Intelligent
understanding OF its simple dignity, and
the concerted action was treated with
musicianly excellence.
The Beethoven qusrtette. op. IS. No
4. in Q minor. WAS the most ambitious
work OF the afternoon, and was our
prisingly we'll done. Ii was not flaw
less. but that WAS hardly to be expected
under the circumstances, and the fact
that they did with it as we'll az they
did. went far to prove what may bs ex-

who have organized with the
worthy purpose OF making of themselves

that shall confine its efforts to render
