RATES ADVANCED.

Considerable Increase in Freight Tariff
to Montana Points.
ST. PAUL, Sept. IA considerable
increase in freight rates to Montana and
Western territory has been ordered to
go into effect. This grows out of the
conference held in this city few weeks
ago.
It was announced that important
changes will be made i'm the freight tar
ifs of the Northern Pacific, Great North
ern and Union Pacific reaching Mon
tana territory and west, to take effect
Sept. 2. During the past two years
the tariffs to Montana and terri
tory west thereof have been on a
very low basis, the rates to this terri
tory being somewhat affected by the
very low rates made to Pacific coast ter
minals, by reason Of the strong compe-
tition of the water lines between the
Atlantic seaboard and the Pacific coast.
The new rates will restore the condi-
lions to about the normal basis in effect
before the reductions made about the
time the Great Northern line was COM
pleted to the coast in 1892.

HAVE A GRIEVANCE.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Sept. cit
has developed here that A. r. U. men
on the Great Northern system are pre-
pairing for a big meeting at Devils Lake
Oct. next. AL the unions on the sys-
tenn are expected to be represented.
Some of the men are complaining that
wages are being cut by the road and
that their grievance is just as great as
before the great strike. It is under
stood that the discharge of the four dis
patchers will be discussed at this meet
ing and some action taken; also a new
wage schedule will be prepared for
President Hill to consider.

ARE PROBABLY DEAD
LITTLE HOPE OF RESCUING EN-
TOMBED MINERS At HOUGHTON.

Fires Still Raging Fieroely and Work
men Cannot Go Below-Thirty of the
Two Hundred Employees Yet Unac-
counted For-More Might Have Es-
capped.
HoUaHToN, Mich, Sept. s. Huge
volumes Of smoke are still issuing forth
from the mouths of shafts Nos. 1, 2 and
3, which shows that the awful fire
which started in the Osceola copper
mine shortly before noon Saturday is
still raging fiercely, and the bodies OF
the 30 miners entombed are still lying
somewhere below the surface without a
doubt dead, suffocated by smoke and
gas. Captain P. Richards, with gang
of seven men, went down No. 5 shaft
during the evening and went about 700
feet toward No. shaft, when they had
to turn and flee for their lives on ac-
count of the smoke and gas. Some OF
these men were very nearly overcome,
only reaching surface
In Time to Save Their Lives.
1t is learned that the place where the
fire caught was the worst place that it
could have caught in the whole mine,
and the only place i'll the mine where
fire Of any extent could have caught.
Many Of the men that were working
several levels below the 27th, in which
the fire caught, were seen as far up
as the 18th level, working their way
up. Several Of the men who escaped
claim to have passed others on the lad.
ders who We're unable to proceed fur
ther OH account of being overcome with
smoke and gas. At the time the alarm
was sounded over 200 were under
ground, and all could have escaped had
they used proper precaution. Several
miners in their fight passed group OF
seven or eight men who had stopped to
rest and were smoking their pipes.
When told to hurry to the surface, they
remarked that they had plenty of time
and
Not One of Them Reached Surface.
The skips were kept running up and
down I'LL day Saturday i'll order to give
any of the entombed miners chance to
escape if they could reach the skip alive,
but none came up. There is no danger
of the bodies being burned, as it is gen.
orally thought that the men escaped
from the burning shaft to some Of the
drifts leading to other shafts and were
overcome by gas and smoke before they
could reach place Of safety. This be-
ing the case, the bodies will be recov-
cred as soon as the fire is gotten under
control and the gases leave the mine.
The shaft has been surrounded all day
by thousands of people, all hoping that
some sign or word would be gotten
from the men, but have now all re-
turned TO their homes fearing the worst.
All hope has been given up by the Off
cials OF ever rescuing amy of the men
alive.

WHO WANTS 1T?

Meeting to Settle the City for the Re-
publican Convention.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Tt is under
stood that Chairman Carter of the ma
tional committee, will, within a few
days, issue call for a meeting of
the committee in this city in October.
The exact date of the meeting is
not yet known, but when it is
finally announced delegations from all
of the score Of cities which are in the
race for the convention will lie headed
this way. The general impression here
seems to be that, although Chicago will
not ask for the convention, it is more
than likely to be held there.

THE REcEIvERsHlP DOOMED.
Gossip of Wall Street on the Northern
Pacific Dec. sion.

Gossip Of Wall Street on the Northern
Pacific Decision.
New YORK, Sept. Careful observ-
ers of Northern Pacific affairs were not
surprised at Judge Hanford's decision
at Seattle. It was known that both ne
and Judge Gilbert held strong neutral
position, and that personal consldera-
tons would have no weight in their
court. In general the decision has tax
en- Wall street by surprise. Some imam
ciers are thunderstruck at its sweeping
character. Its logical sequence will be
the speedy removal of the three recelV'
ers and the appointment Of others that
will be friendly to the Ives interest ana
antagonistic to Willard, Cakes and the
rest. The decision Of Judges Gilbert
and Hanford paralyzes the present re-
ownership, and, in the opinion OF people
here, may lead to the resignation OF he
ceiver Cakes and his associates, despite
the vigorous demand of ex-senator
Spooner for longer time. They have
been allowed only month to answer
the charges made by President Ives.
This indicates that Judge Hanford is
disposed to act promptly and put new
men in charge at the first opportunity.
Strengthens HiSs Position.
The effects Of the SETTLE decision are
far reaching and sensational. 1t weak
ems, if it does not destroy, Wizards in
fuence in Northern Pacific affairs. It
ought to strengthen Mr.. Hills position
in some respects and weaken it in
others. It eliminates the Adams COM
mittee, which, as stated, has opposed
him stealthily as well as openly IN re-
cent days. On the other hand it makes
stronger the Ives element, which at
present is opposed to union. The de-
cision has comic aspects. 1t shows that
three men have had control for nearly
two years of great railroad and han
died over $32,OOO,O0O without genuine
authority Holders Of receivers GER
tificates may feel uncomfortable. but
the validity of such may be good, OF
course, in some form or other. The
validity of the Cakes receivership may
be carried to the United States supreme
court. but at present its actual extinc'
ton is deemed inevitable.

action of the grand jury on the charge
of murder, Mrs. Hawkins being the
victim. Judge Holt arrived at that de.
cision after listening to five days OF tes-
timony. Considering the strong evil

nearly all who have been watching the
ease.

IL HUNG CHANGES PROCLAMATION
Speaks in Praise Of the Work of Mis-

Speaks in Praise Of the Work of Mis-
sionaries I'm China.
NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-RObert E. Speer,
secretary of the board Of foreign mis-
sions of the Presbyterian church in the
United States, has received q letter from
Rev. + w. Houston of Marking, China,
dated July II. The letter contains a
copy Of the proclamation of Lii Hung
Chang, the viceroy, which rot only re-
quires the Chinese to refrain from mo-
testing missionaries, but speaks in terms
Of praise of the work done by them.
Mr.. Speer says that the proclamation
illustrates the folly Of forming judg-
ment of the whole of China from condi-
lions existing in one section, and it is
more significant because Marking has
always been a more or less turbulent
cQntar

not only did it accentuate the
extent of the progress of the Catho-
lie church in the Northwest; not only
did it demonstrate the strength of the
archepiscopal province of St. Paul, but
it added to the fame and character Of
St. Paul as all educational center; for to
the Sanity City's list of great educa-
tiOnal institutions was formally added
another, destined to take rank with the
best.
And the day, "a it should have been,
was perfect, making it entirely possible
to carry out the plans which have been
in process of incubation for weeks.
The object Of interest, of course, was
Archbishop Satolli, who was invisible
to the laity until the time for the cele.
bration of pontifical mass arrived, and
then there was a general craning
Of necks to enable their owners to catch
glimpse of the papal ablegate.
Escorted by Archbishop Ireland, the
prelate whom St. Paul best knows, the
representative of Rome entered and cell
ebrated the solemn rites of the church,
while the multitude, numbering at that
time in the neighbOrbOod Of 1000,
stood in humble attention.
The ceremonial Of the mass, which pre-
coded while forming part of the dedi-
catory exercises, was very imposing.
Mgr. Satoli sang the mass himself. He
was arrayed in the robes of his Office in
the church and was attended by dea-
cons, subdeacons, a master of ceremon-
les and the usual attendants at such a
function. The sermon was delivered by
DR.. O'Gorman and following after it all
the clerics in attendance formed in pro-
cession and the various buildings on the
grounds were visited separately and
each dedicated. The mass began at 10
o'clock promptly and the exercises lasted
until nearly l o'clock
The Evening Exercises.
The assembly hall in the chapel build
ing was crowded to witness the evening
exercises. It was a remarkable gather
ing, the majority of those present being
in full evening dress. It was composed
of the leading citizens of the city of all
denominations, among the number be-
ing nearly all the army officers from
Fort Smelling, the judges of the district
court, prominent railroad men, state
officials and others, with their wives and
other members Of their families. The
