PASSENGER RATES.

Western Lines Taking steps to Pre-
vent Further DemoraiiZation.
CHICAGO, May "a meeting of the
Western lines was held to-day, and steps
were taken to prevent the demoraliza-
ton that has been creeping into the rates
ever since the inauguration OF the home
seekers excursion. The present east
bound rate OF $40 from Denver to the
Missouri River expires by Limitation
May 18th. 1t was decided that all other
cut rates. whether made because OF the
homeseek ers' excursion or because of the
Denver Missouri River rates, should be
dropped on that date. No further cut
rates will be allowed, and steps will be
taken to prevent any reduction in the
regular tariffs through The business OF
the two additional excursions which are
yet 10 be run.
Before the meeting convened there was
some fear that the Union Pacific would
not abandon lis intention of making the
$40 rate from omaha 10 Denver, as well
as from Denver to Omaha. The Union
Pacific, however. showed that 1t lad no
intention OF demoraliZing rates.
Vice President StubDs OF the Southern
Pacific had long conference to-day with
General Passenger Agent LonaX OF the
Union Pacific over the California rate
situation. Some years ago local asso-
citation was formed i'll California for the
purpose OF removing decentralization and
OF keeping the market in i healthiul con-
dition. The Union Pacific declined to
join the association. 1t was found, how
ever, thai the association could not be
made much of u success with the Union
Pacific on the outside. MIR. StuDDS was
anxious TO have il become mem Der, but
his efforts To-day did hot avail 10 any
great extent.

perate Dalton Dooling gang of outlaws
who were killed last week, were be-
trayed by friends, entrapped into the lat
ter's homo and cowardly murdered
while they slept under thoir hosts roof.
The killing, according to story of
neighbors brought III from Ingalls,, was
done by the Dunns, who had been prom
ICED large rewards by the deputies, who
claimed later 10 have made the capture OF
the famous outlaws. The latter's friends
have sworn vengeance ana the Dunn
family are arming to protect themselves.
The killing is on par with the cowardly
assassination by the Ford boys OF Jesse
James.
The Dunn boys were in ingalls, on the
afternoon of The killing and went home
with large amount of bser and whisky.
1t had been arranged to have Sallie Niles,
q sweetheart OF dynamite Dick" and
the two outlaws meet at the Dunn house
that night for big time. By midnight
The outlaws were badly under the intiu-
ence OF liquor and shortly atterward
went to sleep, heavily armed as usual,
and without removing their clothes.
While in this condition, it is asserted, the
Dunns perforated them with Winchester
bullets and bucks shot. An examination
OF the bodies showed that all tho bullets
and bucksnot had gone lutO the bodies III

clusion than that the men We're lying

brothers was brought i'll here few days

The Dunns are lying very low. Their

ROYAL BAKING POWDER.

syndicate is buying cold in the West or
not, but tney are unable to see how the
syndicate could meet its contract obllga-
tions without buying gold whenever and
wherever it could. Not the least inn
liortant feature OF their contract with the
Government is its agreement to protect
the Treasury, so far as it is able, from
gold Withdrawals for export at this time,
and with sterling exchange at its present
high rate this is no light obligation. and it
is more than probable that the syndicate
has been compelled TO make heavy pur-
chases of gold ip the West, possibly at a
slight premium, in order to cover its
foreign bills:
That large purchases are making is
evidenced by the fact that one or moro Of
tho large retinerios, which heretofore
have sold their product at the Denver
assay Office, ceased making their deliver
les there some weeks ago, and the as
sumption is that it is being sold in New
York at figures slightly in advance OF the
price paid at the Denver Mint.
Thus TAR the officials are entirely salts
fed, they say, with the manner i'll which
the syndicate is carrying out ills contract,
both as TO its deposits and it's control of
the markets SO as to protect the Treasury
gold from export.
