Chicago Johhers RebuNed.

The wholesale merchants of Chicago and
the passenger representatives of the roads
which are members of the Western Passen-
ger Association met in Chicago yesterday
for the purpose of considering the request
o1 the merchants for low fares for the
prospective buyers of goods who might de-
sire to go to Chicago to make their pur-
chases. The railroad men assured the mer-
chants that they would be glad to make
the rates for them, but the matter, as it
now stands, and in the form that the mer-
chants have made their request. is. out of
the question, and that the roads cannot
make buyers low rates to the large cities
without doing great injustice to the jobbers
in the smaller cities in the territory of the
association, and this is a situation not to
be considered. The matter will probably
result in the merchants making another
proposition TO the roads in a short time.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator Harris,
of Tennessee, was resting more easily to-

condition. The senator is very old and
some months ago was FRUSTRATED by a very
severe attack of the grip, complicated by
stomach troubles. He subsequently rallied.
but never fully regained his strength and
the present attack is regarded with grave
apprehension.
Tonight Senator Harris's physician says
he is somewhat improved. If the present
favorable symptoms continue an effort will
be made probably tomorrow night 10 re-
move the senator to some nearby mountain
resort, where cooler weather prevails.

CLINTON Ind, July 6.--Ernest Russell.
the ten-year-old son of Scott Russell, pro-
prietor of the Montezuma Touring mills,
was assaulted, robbed and perhaps muir
dered by footpads on the public highway
some time this afternoon. He is now lying
at the point of death with a fractured
skull, and there are but slight hopes for his
recovery. Mr.. Russell sent his son on a
horse to collect a flour bill from a mer-
chant of Summit Grove, four miles north of
Clinton. The boy was not heard of after
he started back home from Summit Grove
until he was found unconscious by the
roadside at the foot of a sand hill His
body hidden from view by dense
growth of trees on either side of the road.
The little boy was taken home and is stlll
unconscious. The affair may remain a
mystery unless he RECEIVERS sufficiently to
throw some light on the case He was
badly beaten, and was probably left for
dead by the robber. His pockets were
turned wrong side out and his money gone.
Suspicion rests on several questionable
characters but yet there is nothing to
justify an arrest.
