ENGLAND is having something to dis
tract her attention from the Venezuelan
matter. The Italian disaster affects her
position in Egypt, for it encourages the
Madhists and other bands in the Soudan
to renew their aggressions on the south
ern frontier of Egypt. Therefore, she
has decided to take time by the foreloek
and move out forces from the Upper
Nile TO reprcss these and divert them
from the heleagured Italians But this
tends to rub the skin off the old sore Of
France about England's sole occupation
of Egypt. 1t looks so strongly toward
the permanency of English occupation
of Egypt that the French people are be-
coming excessively angry, and Russia
sympathizes with them for obvious rea-
sons. English people and papers recog-
nize quite clearly that prudence dictates
that the Venezuelan matter be settled at
once and amicably. 1t will not do to
have quarrel brew over few square
miles of South American territory, which
may develop into alarming proportions
at most inconvenient time when they
want all their strength to hold on to
their valuable acquisitions in the East.

REPORTS of two sharp little fights in
Cuba have enough of details to make
them seem as if measurably true. They
certainly show that the Cubans have no
hesitancy about meeting the Spaniards
in the open field, and that they handle
their forces with a good deal of military
skill. In both fights the Cubans gained
decided advantages.

1t does. You know as much about the
contents as we do, gentlemen. The
trunk has never been opened. Some
one says 25 cents. Make 1T so; make 1t
so; who will make it so? That is right,
sir, now we will make it 70; give me
75, 70, 70; going at rs, going once, going
twice, and now see here, gentlemen
this won't do. You may get six silk
dresses in that trunk. Only one more
chance; going, going, going three times,
and sold for so cents"
The battered old trunk was seized by
two freight handlers, who turned it
over to the purchaser. The latter
dragged it out of the freight house
and opened 1t. The trunk contained
patent medicine ads An old dust
covered carpet bag followed. It's sides
bulged out with promises which seemed
to tell Of home-spun socks, bandanna
handkerchiefs and scarlet underwear.
The satchel went for rs cents, for no
one thought it looked valuable, but the
man who got it found two pairs Of
very good pants in it, some the worse
for being smashed into such small
space for such a long time. But the
material was good, and the trousers
will be fit for Willie to wear in the
spring time.
"And here we have another trunk,
which is as heavy as a bakers loaf.
1t Is a nice trunk, too, alone worth
the price Of admission. No one knows
what the trunk contains. You all take
the same chances. It is as fair for
one as for another. What am Of
fered?"
A quarter of a dollar was offered,
and another man raised the ante. A
third man stayed, and the fourth man
called the game, getting the trunk for
easy money. The man who got it put
1t on a dray, determined to explore it's
contents in secret. What he secured
no one knows. The next trunk was as
light as the other one was heavy, and
for that matter bidders fought shy OF
it 1t went for 25 cents, but the man
who bought it drew an assortment of
ladies' garments and white f1Xin's worth
at least IS or Sc. 1t was long day S
work, but the entire batch of stuff was
auctioned off by 2 o'clock in the after
noon. At one time there were 500 peo-
pie on hand, all anxious to bid. The
result of the sale was surprise to
the company, for the reason that it was
not expected the stuff would go so fast.
The trunks, satchels and packages were
collected from all the Northwestern
branches, during a period Of two or
three years.

Great Northern's Annual Sale of Un-

claimed Freight.
Over 600 pieces Of very musty bag
gage was hauled out from the dark un-
der the caves of the Omaha freight
house yesterday, and sold at public
auction. The baggage was on the 'un-
claimed list" and had been accumulat-
ing for two years or more. The heap
included trunks satchels, grips, carpet
bags, and every other class Of luggage
some Of the stuff was attractive. and
some had the unmistakable look Of
hobo" ownership
The sale opened at 9 O'Clock. Even
at that early hour two or three hun
dred bargain hunters were on hand
awaiting the opening of the auction.
General Baggage Agent Wood acted as
master of ceremonies. Two auction
GERS, with voices like a Duluth fog
horn, climbed upon pair of dry goods
boxes and took turns at the work.
The first piece placed on sale was an
old trunk, with ropes running around
its sides, and strap pulled taut around
the ends to preserve its unity.

Phillips Upholstered Tourist Cars
Are the Most Popular.

More California passengers travel in Tourist
cars under Mr.. Phillips management than in
any other way. The Minneapolis G. st. Louis
railroad has the exclusive right to operate
Phillips Tourist Cars, which makes that the
favorite line. They combine cheapness in
ticket rates, superior finish Of cars, select
class of patrons, excellency of road bed, the
best route and gentlemanly and experienced
managers to look after the travellers.
Cars now leave st. Paul at 9:15 a. m. every
Tuesday, via the Southern Route, arriving
at Los Angeles Saturday afternoon; and at
Z p. m. every Thursday via the Scenic Line
of the World, reaching California in four
days.
To insure good accommodations, arrange
ments should be made as far In advance as
possible. Consult J. H. Whitaker, G. T. A.,

nominate officers and make general plans for
the organization Of the coming winter earn

TO TRY TO GET TOGETHER,
Assembly and Aldermen to Have a
Conference.

The committees on license of both bodies
of the council held conference yesterday
afternoon in the mayors Office, with a view
to harmoniZing, if possible, the differences
that have arisen between the assembly and
the board of aldermen over the saloon ques-
ton. The session was brief one and moth
ing was accomplished, but another confer
ence will be held soon.
The assembly has upset the recent arrange
ment adopted by the aldermen whereby the
board decided to issue liquor licenses to
brewing companies or any corporation and
to accept surety companies as sureties on
the bonds accompanying the applications for
liquor licenses. The assembly adopted a
resolution at its last meeting declaring that
not more than one license should be issued
to any single person or corporation, and the
next night the aldermen killed the resolu-
tion by a vote Of seven to three
