ANOTHER GUN FIRED AT THE TO.
BACCO TRUST.
A Cut of Three Cents n Pound Made
in the Price of Standard Brand
of Plug Tobacco.

CHICAGO, March ga local pape4
says: An opening gun expected to pre-
cipitate war in the tobacco trade has
been fired by one of the leading anti
trust concerns. The move is signif-
cant. not only because it will call out
similar measures by Lorillard, Sorg,
Drummond and other big plug tobac-
co men, but because it will affect the
cigarette market as well.
Every tobacco jobber in Chicago, in
Guiding wholesale grocery houses,
found on opening their mall yesterday
that cut of three cents per pound had
been made in the price of a brand of
plug tobacco used all over the world
and a standard in America The cut
was made in such a way that it is plain
ly the design to undermine the price
of the trusts cigarettes or supplant
them with antitrust goods of a sim
liar sort. The fact that large firms out
side Of the trust will be forced into
active fighting makes the opposition
the most formidable the trust has yet
encountered.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., March 9.-Today

ions of the lower courts were reversed
in the following cases: Judgment OBJ
tanned by Carbon county against

shown the injured man was a resident
of Sweetwater that the county was
not responsible

Johns offense was not kidnapping.

Laramie county of perjury as a wit
ness in the case of the state VS. Isaac
Chandler; the court held that there was
error in admitting as evidence admis-
sions Of Chandler as to his guilt which

Had to Retrace.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-Owing to
an error of a technical parliamentary
character, the house today had to re-
trace some of its steps in order that
the resolution it adopted might be be-
fore the senate in the status of a, sub
st1tute for the senate resolutions. Sen
ator Sherman, chairman of the senate
committee on foreign relations. after
the corrected version of the house
Cuban. resolution was received by the
senate, said that the committee would
hold meeting tomorrow for the pur-
pose of considering what course should
be recommended to the senate. The
senate can pursue either of three lines
OF policy. 1t can disagree to the house
substitute and send it back without
asking conference; it can disagree
and ask for a conference, or it can ac-
cept the house resolution as a. substi
tute. If accepted, this action will dis
pose of the entire question so far as
congress is concerned. Senator Sher-
man declined to express an opinion
as to the probabilities as did others of
the committee.

BUTTE. Mont. March S.-Another
most daring highway robbery was
committed at 5 o'clock this morning
on one of the principal business streets
of the city and within the sight of the
police station and county court house.
Judge William Clancy, a well known
lawyer. and Charles Carver, a ranch
er. were slugged and robbed by two
men who made good their escape. The
police seem to be entirely unable to-
handle the tough element that infests
the city and highway robberies are OF
almost nightly occurrence.

Fruit Growers Concerned over the
Late Storm Throughout Califor-
min.

SAN FRANCISCO, March S-Fruit
growers are much concerned over the
storm which began yesterday and was
general throughout the state. For the
first time in ten years snow fell in
this city while furries are reported
from various points along the coast.
The snow created as much excitement
as a blizzard would in the east from
the fact that a snow storm. is of such
rare occurrence. Thus far it is not
believed that the fruit crop has been
materially injured, but much appre-
hension is felt as the trees are in
blossom and a frost at this time would
do great damage. The snow storm
was accompanied by high winds which
did considerable damage to Shipping
on the bay.
