Rates on Local Passenger
Traffic.

Col. @. w. Griggs, well-known in st.
Paul, but now prominent citizen of
Tacoma, wishes to be a receiver for
the Northern Pacific.
This fact was made known yeSter-
day, when some of the coloners friends
made overtures looking to securing
the Endorsement Of the st. Paul COM
mercial bodies like the Commercial
club, Chamber of Commerce and job
bers' union. The news created no little
interest on the street, coming as it did
right upon the heels of the settlement
Of the veXed question by the supreme
court justices, and the matter was free
ly commented upon. 1t is considered
just a trifie out Of the ordinary that
the Tacoma friends Of Col. Griggs
should seek the Endorsement of the st.
Paul bodies for the addition to the
present receivership Of a gentleman
who is to represent the west end of the
road if he should be selected. Owing
to the well-known fact that the people
in Seattle are non persona grata with
the jenkins regime this move is looked
upon here as a political one in favor of
Tacoma. II the comment heard re-
garding the matter goes for anything
the colonel's chances are nil. The APP
plication, coming from his friends, as it
does, instead of through stock or bond
holders Of the road, loses its weight,
and the fact that Col. Griggs is
a big lumberman, having contracts
with the Northern Pacific road, and
virtually interested in its tariffs, would
defeat the smallest chance of his being
named.
The colonel has many staunch
friends here in St Paul who might
like to see him thus honored, but in
the opinion of railroad men, their in
dorsement in the case will count for
naught.-It is supposed that a number
of the members of the Jobbers' union
got together last night and discussed
the matter, but Secretary Beck mildly
Informed a G o b e reporter that there
would be nothing to give out for pub
LEGATION.
Some of the Northern Pacific officials
were asked yesterday about the matter
but were averse to discussing it.

THE STRHIN
rs ON THE KIDNEYS
THE PERILS OF RAILROADING-
DANGERS WITHIN THE BODY AS
WELL AS OUT OF 1.-THE CON-
SLANT EARRING HURTS THE
SPINE AND KIDNEYS.

Railroading, business is an extra haz-
ardous occupation. Defective rails, misplaced
switches, careless operators and signal men,
open bridges and collisions make it SO. Ger
tainly a man who engages in it takes his life
in his hand
But there are other and even more serious
dangers Of which but little account is usually
taken. We refer to the effect of the constant
jarring and jolting upon the Kidneys. 1t is
very common cause Of Kidney and Bladder
disease.
Thin men are particularly susceptible to it,
Nature imbeds the Kidneys in cushions Of
fat, because she wishes these to act as elas-
tic buffers and counteract this Earring. Thin
men who have but little fat, therefore suffer
the most.
The evil effects of constant EARRING may be,
in large measure, overcome, and the urin-
airy troubles cured by Dr. Hobbs Sparagus
Kidney Pills. as witness the following:

DOUBTFUL ABOUT 1T.
Abolition OF Party Rates Received
With Uncertainty.

Word received at late hour yester-
day afternoon by some of the mem
bers of the Western Passenger asso-
citation of the abolition of the party
rate was hailed not with unmixed
pleasure.
Some uncertainty is expressed as to
the legality of withdrawing the rate
entirely and then devising some plan
for the transportation of theatrical
companies later. The contention is
made that to legislate as to restrict the
party rate to any one particular class
is discrimination pure and simple. The
local lines who do not take this view
point to the fact that in the Southern
association some such plan as is pro-
posed has been working successfully
for more than five years with no objec-
ton on the part of the interstate COM
merce commission. At all events the
much-talked-of bette noir is disposed Of
and the mixed up parties which have
been sent away from here at a re-
duced rate will hereafter probably go
in pairs or singly and at tariff rates or
not at all.

BOTH CITIES ALIKE.
500 Makes the Same Rate to st. Paul
and minneapolis.

The 500 road will, in a few days,
take an action which will be to the
material-benefft of St.-Paul, and which
bids fair to increase the popularity of
that line with the people of the state
generally.
Beginning on Monday, the 500 peo-
pie will put into effect a new paSscn-
ger tariff which makes the rate from
points within 240 miles of the Twin
Cities to ST. Paul the same as Mime
apolis. The fare between ST. Paul and
Minneapolis is 80 cents one way, while
the round trip is so cents. Assistant
General Passenger Agent Thorn has
had the matter under consideration
for some time, and, after a conference
or two with General Passenger Agent
Galloway, is able to say that after
Monday the shoppers from the differ
ent parts of the state can deal with
retailers quite as advantageously in
st. Paul as in Minneapolis.
1t will be readily seen that with the
shopping patronage which comes from
the northwestern and western part of
Minnesota to consider any move
which brings ST. Paul nearer a posi-
ton to receive her share is to be heart
lily welcomed by the citizens and
business men generally.
AS the matter stands at present, per-
sons coming in from the state are able
~ reach NIluiedpOIiS IOT 81 cents less
than it costs to come to ST. Paul, to
say nothing of the slight additional
Time necessary which cannot well be
eliminated This condition has no
doubt worked against ST. Paul in the
past, and it is more than probable that
the reduction by the 500 will be met
particularly at competitive points, by
the Great 'Iorthern and Northern Pa
cifie fvedH
Tfs' road runs through the northern
central part of the state from st. Paul
to Fairmont, and along the line of
road there are many good towns. The
residents of these places will no doubt
find their way to st. Paul oftener
than they have in the past
The rate will not be changed for
points nearer than Buffalo, where the
fare to St Paul, even with the addi-
tional 80 cents would be less than ST.
The road served notices Of the pro-
posed reduction yesterday on the Com
mercial club, Jobbers' union and
chamber of commerce.

BRADSTREETS WEEKLY REPORT
TAKES A GLOOMY VIEW OF
THE SITUATION.
INDUSTRIES ARE WAITING.
NORTHWEST IS DISAPPOINT-
ING.
ada-R. G. Dun's Review More
Hopeful.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3I.-Bradstreet's
review tomorrow will say: 'The feat
ures Of the week are continued retarded
demand for merchandise and checked in
dustrial operations. Least satisfactory
is the waiting attitude Of some Of the
more important industries. Shoe fac
tories at Philadelphia are shutting down
or running on part time; cotton goods
makers regard the outlook for their
product unpromising; there is a reac-
ton in the price Of steel billets; among
fifty pig iron furnaces in the Pittsburg
and Sheango districts fourteen are idle,
and the position Of wooden goods man
ufacturers is shown by the fact that for
eign wooden goods are relatively most
active.
General trade at the close of January
proves disappointing, particularly in
Central Western, Western and North
western states, where the movement Of
merchandise from jobbers has been
slow and unsatisfactory, it being only
fair at few points. The volume Of
spring goods distributed from Chicago
in January falls behind expectations,
although larger than in January, 1895.
Some traders in territory tributary to
Chicago are making orders small owing
to having carried over large stocks, and
to desire to confine purchases to ac-
tual requirements. At st. Louis the
spring demand is slow and general
trade is characterized as only fair by
the most sanguine. The condition in
the Northwest is such that grain moves
freely in some regions, irrespective Of
low prices. A result OF all this is shown
by the cuts in New York, Chicago and
st. Louis jobbers in prices of standard
cotton goods which demoralize the de-
mand.
Business failures throughout the
United States this week show another
large increase, not only as compared
with last week. but as contrasted with
the total for the fourth week in jan
uary 1895, 1894 and 1893 The total is
1893; last week it was 341; last year 312;
in 1894, $40; in 1893, 271, and in 1892 it
was 279. There are 63 business failures
reported from the Dominion of Canada
this week, an exceptionally large num-
Der. The total last week was 90; one
year ago it was Sc; in 1894 it was A
in 1893 it was 81, and in the correspond
ing week Of 1892 only 34.''

learned whether or not he will deem it
best to add to his two receivers, ap-
pointed some time ago, any others. It
is the opinion here, however, that he
will not, but that he will leave the

PARTY RATES WIPED OUT.
Special Arrangements Will he Made
for Theatrical Parties.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-The lines of the
Western Passenger association have de-
cided to abolish party rates from all
the territory Of the association east of
the Missouri river. It has been found
the eradication of the rates is the only
way in which they can be kept from de-
moralizing the market. No specific date
has been set on which the tickets are
to be taken off, but it will be in the
very near future. Some method, of TAX
ing care Of theatrical parties will be ar
ranged later, as it is not intended that
they shall be made to pay full fare.
All lines in the Western Passenger
association which are competitors of the
Texas lines have been authorized to
meet the rates on those lines made for
the prize fights at Ell Paso.
A call was issued today for the regu-
lar meeting of the trans-Missouri COM
m1tttee Of the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION to be held in Chicago, Feb. 4.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, w. Va, Dec. 21. John R. Fargo attended the Baptist church in company with young wo- man. During the services Mattie Cor win arose from her seat on the oppo- site side of the aisle, and walking over to Fargo made a vicious assault on him. Fargo's eyes were blackened and flesh wounds about his face bled pro- fusely as he walked from the building. The occurrence stopped the service for ten minutes and all was confusion afterward. The Corwin woman was a former sweetheart of Fargo and Sun day nights sensational episode is at tributed to jealousy.
