THE CHANGES ILLEGAL,

railroads Entering Chicago Dealt a
Severe BLOW.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-The railroads enter
ing Chicago were dealt severe blow to-
day III the decision of the State Board of
Warehouse and Railroad Commissioners
that charges for handling freight at the
Union Stockyards are illegal. similar
decision was recently handed down by
the United States Courts in the case of
the Santa Fe.
To-day's decision was not an interstate
one, as that against the Santa Fe, but it
was nevertheless of no little Importance,
and II 1t is sustained by the Circuit Court
will mean the loss OF a tremendous rev.
enue yearly. All lines are obliged to pay
the stockyards company high charges,
and these they have been collecting from
the shippers. The Santa Fe case was ap-
pealed, and a decision is now pending.
In ;he meantime the roads have gone
right on making the charge, although it
has been declared illegal.
The case decided to-day was against the
Chicago and Alton, aud was brought by
an Illinois shipper. The roads will fight
the decisions to the last ditch, but it is said
there are other preeedents for them.
meeting of Chicago Minneapolis lines
was held to-day for the purpose of COM
ing TO some sort of an agreement as 10 dl-
vision OF traffic, but none could be
reached, and The meeting adjourned until
Monday, when the subject will be taken
up in detail. 1t is denied that there was
or will be any attempt to form pool, the
Interstate commerce law having already
been construed by the courts as not being
opposed TO the lines dividing up traffic,
SO long as regular pool without ID money
penalties is formed.

ton on the streets. in the business offices
and by the home firesde of the city. The
talk of Governor Clarke yesterday served
but to intensity the public feeling
Everybody was anxious to know what
was going to occur. particularly when it
became known that Corbett would arrive
on an evening train.
A bomDshell was exploded when it be-
came known that General Taylor of
Forest City, IN command of the State
troops and George Neeley, Captain of
the Neeley Rifles. had arrived and had
instructions from the Governor to see
that Corbett and titzsmmons did not
meet In Hot Springs or in Arkansas.
a conference Is in progress o-night,
and the people now seem TO feel confident
that the combs under the revised agree
ment will take place.
Corbett arrived this evening and re-
celved great ovation. He was not ar
rested. 1t is understood. however, TO be
the programme 10 arrest Corbett upon a
charge OF a threatened breach of the
peace, and require peace bond. The
BOND VIII be refused, and the case will
come up before Chancellor Feathermore
and writ of habeas corpus will bo
whether the courts or the dictum of the
Governor is supreme. The Governor can
not go behind a writ of habeas corpus,
under the law, and 10 suspend the law
requires an Act of the Legislature. The
only way this can be overcome would be
by declaration OF martial law.

Z. $. SUPREME COURT.

Constitutionality OF the Wright Irrlga-
tion Law Under Considerations
WASHINGTON, Oct 15.-The Supreme
Court to-day heard many motions from
attorneys, majority being for the ad-
vancement OF cases on the docket.
\ motion to advance was made in the
cases of the Pacific and Central Railway
Companies versus the People of Califor-
MIA.
The California irricatiop cases, involv-
ing the constitutionality Of the Wright
law, were under consideration for a short
time on motion by Mr.. Hubbard, rep. g.
senting the Fall Brook irrigation district,
for the consolidation of the case with that
OF Iregera versus Modesto district. Jo-
seph Choate, representing the opposing
side, assented. The Trogera case had
been sci down for argument on the 2lst
inst, but the court consented 10 q post
ponement and stated that the motion for
consolidation would be taken under ad-
visement and the date for argument an
nounced later.
These cases involve similar cases, but
one reaches the Supreme Court from The
State courts and the other from the Fed
eral court.
In one case the law was pronounced
constitutional and in the other unconsti-
tutlonal. Mr.. Choate called attention TO
this fact and said that III view of this
fact the cases ought to be heard by full
bench.
1t is reported that ex-President Harri-
son VIII appear IN these eases.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Oct. ). via Key
West, Oct. 15.)-The famous mountain of
Mogote, one of the highest Of this district,
was the scene of heavy battle on the
ID iust., and one more victory for the
insurgents. The Mogote is forty-flve
miles northeast of this city, and point
where many battles were fought during
the ten years. war. The rebels, learning
that the Spanish Generals Garcia, Ma
varro and Linarnes were on their way to
chat place, placed themselves IN GOOD
position for the attack. The com blned
Spanish column, 1900 strong. opened the
attack from their vanguard. Antonio
Maceo with 500 men, returned the fire,
and after severe battle Of five hours he
defeated the Spaniards, who were obliged
TO retire, leaving five chiefs and officers
killed, ten officers wounded and $50
soldiers killed and wounded.
The rebels are really fighting like
heroes, and they begin to be short of
ammunition. During the last few days
the insurgents have made splendid camps
in Sabena- Miranda, Mogote and La
Grande.
A boat from the Spanish warship
Neuva Espano, with an officer and ten
sailors, while passing near the Baconao
River, about thirty five miles from Santl-
ago. on the south coast OF the island. was
fired upon by band of insurgents, who
wore OH the coast making salt. The boat
returned the fire, while the man-of-
fired six bonn bsnells to protect the land
ing of the men. The rebels left the
place, and no one was wounded Oh either
side.
Yellow fever still continues here among
the Spaniards.
The enthusiasm is very great among
the Cubans, and many young men go TO
the field almost daily. The women are
more enthusiastic that the men.
INsURGENT FORCES DEFEATED.
MADRID, Oct. ia dispatch from
Havana says that Colonel Milan's COL
uinns dispersed the combined insurgent
forces of Guerro, Garrielo and Rodriguez
at Linderos Meneses, after a fight that
lasted seven hours. The rebel forces
gathered again at Sierra Colorado, anu
the Government troops again attacked
them, defeating them with heavy loss.
On the Spanish side only few were
wounded.

BoXING AT THE OLYMPIC CLUB.
Bouts Well Contested, But the Decis-
ions Unsatisfactory.
AT LATONIA.

Bouts Well Contested, But the Decis-
ions Unsatisfactory.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. I5.-The boxing
tournament at the Olympic Club tonight
was greeted with the usual crushing au-
dience. Tho bouts were well contested.
but the decisions were hardly satis-
factory.
The first event was between T. Thur
man and j. Dodd, two 1l5-pounders from
the Olympic Club. The decision was
given to Do0d.
The second bout was between Frank
Raphael of the San Francisco Athletic
Club and r. Cuneo of the OlyInpics.
This was rather exciting, and was given
to Raphael.
W. Birdsal of the Sacramento Athletic
Club was slated to box with j. A. MIC
Ginley for the third bout, but. as Bird
sail could not come down to weight
Charles Reno of the San Francisco Club
was substituted. The bout was friendly,
and no decision was rendered.
The match between j. l.. Payen of the
Sacramento Athletic Club and Stewart
Carter of the Olympics was expected to
be one of the best bouts of the evening,
and much enthusiasm was shown when
the men entered the ring. Payen was at
142 pounds, aud Carter at 143. Payen
looked much the stronger of the two, but
both were in firSt-class condition. The
first round was tame, but In the second
both men started 70 mix things. Carter
was cool. but Payen showed up we'll in
his loads, and at the end OF the round he
was in the better condition. The Sacra-
mento man adhered strictly to the rule to
follow every lead with a counter. and not
once did Carter's fist come out but he had
to dodge or take blow from Payen. The
fourth round was 4 lively one, and Car
iers evident desire to hug Payen close in
every clinch brought the audience in
favor of the Sacramento man.
AT the end OF the bout one of the judges
declared in favor of Carter and the other
in favor of Payen, whereupon the referee
instantly declared it draw. Hoots and
howls followed the decision. for Olympia
was in favor of the Sacramento man.
The last bout Of the evening was be-
tween the heavy weight j. Kennedy and
Van .Buskirk, both OF the Olympics. The
latter was too strong for kennody, and
got the decision III the second round.

The House then adjourned.
The California delegation was reduced
by the departure for the East of Major
Hooper and a. n. Brown, the former GO
Ing TO Washington to attend a meeting of
the Loyal Legion. Bishop Nicholson,
VINO has been spending couple days al
Farlbault, returned to-day.
Speaking tonight of the failure of the
revision. Rev. Spalding said he did not
regard the two weeks spent on the report
as having been wasted, although it had
crowded the convention on its regular
business. The debates, he said, had
served the purpose of great educators,
and the Interchange of thought among the
great minds of the church would be of
great benefit to both clergy and laity
throughout the country.
DR.. Spalding was unwilling to say who
was regarded as the leading candidate for
the Blshopric of Los Angeles. The num-
Der of would-be Bishops, he said, was
legion, and it would be impossible to
pick favorite son.

BOUNDARY OF ALASKA.
The Yukon River Basin in American
Territory.

The ukOn 1tlVer Basin IN American
Territory.
WAsHINGTO Oct. .15.-Superintendent
Dufield of the Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey has been informed that the parties
which the survey has had in the field in
Alaska during the past summer have
concluded the seasons work, and are
now on Mary's Island waiting to be
picked up and brought TO San Francisco
on the Patterson, which has been engaged
in photographic work III Alaskan waters.
There have been i've parties from the
Coast Survey engaged in the work in
Alaska during the summer under Messrs.
Dickens and Welker. Their principal
work has consisted in fixing the point
where the Portland Canal crossed the
1itty-sixth parallel of latitude. This is the
extreme southeast point Of the Alaskan
concession.
It's location will have a great deal to do
with determining the boundary line be-
tween Alaska and British Columbia. The
work OF last year consisted Of the locating
of Mount Saint Elias as on the boundary
between the two countries. Next season
the more delicate work will be begun of
running the line between these two
points.
England claims much more than the
United States comedies as 10 the bound
airy. The surveys so far made tend TO
confirm the contentious of this country.
The longitude of many other points along
the coast north OF the Portland Canal has
also been determined as preparation for
next years work. General Duheld say
there is no longer any doubt that all of
the Yukon River Basin below the mouth
OF Forty-Mile Creek is American terri
tory, which includes the gold fields of
that stream as far as opened.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-The Japanese
Legation has no information to-day re-
specting the troubles in Corea, and the
officials here believe that the disorders
have ceased and that nothing further Will
occur to affect the domestic peace OF the
kingdom. Tho Toxic Foreign Office has
sent one of its trusted officials, Mr.. ko-
mura, who was Charge a. Atfalres at
Pekin when the war between China ana
Japan arose, and who has been more re-
Gently the director of tho political bureau
orthe Foreign Office, to Seoul to investigate
and report upon affairs there. The rea-
sou assigned for the assault upon the
Queen is her unpopularity with the
Corean people, and the fact that she has
foisted a score of her relatives as high Of
1icials upon them.
Thirteen years ago Tai Won-Kun, the
father of the King, led an assault on the
palace. with the declared purpose OF Kill
ing his daughter-in-law. The latter was
reported as having been slain, and color
was given to this impression by her dis
appearance from Seoul for three years.
Then she suddenly reappeared and re-
sumed her domestic and onlclal duties at
the palace. During all that period she
had been living in strict retirement in the
country, fearing TO make known her
wherea bouts lest the knowledge should be
followed by another attempt upon her
life. She is said to be woman of strong
mind, whose influence upon her husband
is very great. In view of her previous
experience in escaping the trap sci for
her by Tai " Kun. il is thought TO be
not unlikely that Notwithstanding the re-
port of her death, she may yet be alive.
The Japanese Government Will, 1t Is
said. preserve peace in Corea 1t is ap-
parently not disposed to attach much i'm
Dortance to the recent affair in Seoul be-
lieving it TO be a personal attack upon the
Queen, and not indicative OF any wide
spread conspiracy against the Govern
ment ITSELF This is regarded as the more
likely, when it is remember that the
King Is TIE son Tai. W on Kun.

TEHACHAPI, Oct. I5.-Tehachapi was
deluged with fire tonight, and con-
migration is still raging in the heart of
the town, opposed only by the feeble
efforts of citizens lighting it with buckets
of water. \ dozen buildings have been
swept away, and though the flames are
partially subdued, there is no telling
where the destruction will end
The burned district covers the center OF
the town, and the flames have made
clean sweep. There was little insurance,
because of the prohibitive rates. An en-
gine and watercar came from Mojave by
order OF d. Burkhalter, but arrived too late
to be of any material assistance. Harry
Mead, one of the railroad boys who came
with it. had his ankle broken while
fighting the blaze. This was the only
casualty known.
1t is impossible to get anything like an
accurate report Of the loss. for the fire is
not nearly under control, and the town
is unprotected except by the bucket bri-
gade.
The principal losses are: E. L. Spen-
Ger, on saloon and fixtures, 81, 800: G. A
