500 MEANS BUSINESS,
No Longer Any Doubt About What
1t VIII Do.

1t VIII Do.
The Chicago-St. Paul lines are pro-
ceeding under the presumption that
the Soo's reduced rates from the At
lantic seaboard will be put into eff
feet Jan. 80, and any definite action
on the part of the Western Freight
association has been postponed until
Feb. 1, in order to await definite re-
suits.
The reason why the lines are posi-
tive that the 500 means business came
to light yesterday Eastern agents of
the various Chicago-St. Paul lines
wired their superior officers that the
500 was already contracting for freight
to be moved after JAN 80, on the re-
dIced basis, or 140 per cent Of the
Chicago rate. The special committee
having in charge the 500 matter will
report to the association Jan. 80 or
Feb l.
Burton Johnson, general freight
agent Of the Wisconsin Central an
Hounces that his company will issue
tariffs effective Jan. 80. Chairman
Midgely, of the Western Freight asso-
citation, in discussing the situation yes
terday with a representative of a To-
cal line, said he did not see but that
the board would have to give relief
to the Chicago Great Western, as
against outside competition. 1t is now
understood by the st. Paul lines that
they are not to meet the rates or put
their tariffs into effect until after the
general meeting next week. 1t is prob
able that, excepting the Great Western
and the Wisconsin Central, none will
meet the rates.

Central Gulf and West Florida coasts

In Florida up to o'clock tonight, and
as this region is covered with an area
of rain 1t is probable that the cold
wave may not extend to the south of
Jacksonville with sufficient intensity
to cause injury to crops, although the
temperature may reach freezing in the
interior Of the extreme northern por-
ton.
The temperature will remain about
stationary Wednesday in the middle
Atlantic states north Of Virginia, with
fair weather, and it will rise slowly in
the central valleys, with light local
SHOWS
The barometer has risen in the St.
Lawrence valley and New England, and
In the Southwest 1t has fallen from
Florida northwest to Montana. 1t

and highest north of Montana. There
is second depression central over
Florida which is apparently moving to

The high winds which have prevail
ed on the Atlantic coast north of Hat
teras, due to the depression in the
lower St Lawrence valley, have been
succeeded by brisk northwesterly winds
which will continue Wednesday. the de-

Two Delayed TranscontinentaI
Trains Arrived Yesterday.
The real situation Of the transcon-

six days has been too unsatisfactory
to the railroads to warrant the officials
saying much about it. Things are bet
ter today than they have been for a
week past. This Is the statement made
daily. The roads were undoubtedly
opened yesterday to some point west of
st. Paul, but they were closed MANY
days. 1t has been nothing unusual for
trains to arrive in the city from TWEEN
ty-four to fifty hours late, but the onlv
manner the public learned of the de-
lays has been through the belated pas
sengers.

been raised yesterday. More delayed

The Milwaukee and the Omaha are
still having some trouble with their

not be fully re-established for perhaps
week. An engineer who came

Sewer Committee Viii Make a Fav-

u T. ing Of The Council.

The city council sewer committee
and Messrs.. Clark and Irwin, of the
Greenville Construction company held
meeting yesterday afternoon in the
mayors waiting room, and laboriously
went over the disputed and doubtful
points regarding that part of the in
side sewer system contracted for by
the Greenville company. 1t was shown
by reports of inspectors that the en-
tire system on the east side was per-
fectly satisfactory all repairs and de-
fects being corrected and only a few
places, mostly rough streets, remain
ing to be finished on the west side,
The committee met again this morning
and after two hours sitting rose
having decided to formulate favor
able report 10 the city council on ac-
ceptance of the work according to
contract. The contractors, when the
committee accepts the work, win then
receive two-thirds of the money now
due them, about $4,000, while SILL
600 in round numbers will be retained
for six months, during which time
they are under contract to keep the
system in good repair Mr.. Vern Bry-
an, the foreman of the Greenville Con-
struction company will be left here to
attend to this part of the work.
As soon as the sewer committee com.
pletes the report, called meeting of
the council will be held and the re.
port presented. After that is settled
the question of the temporary dispo,
sal of the sewage until such time as
the outfall sewer repairs are compile
ted will be considered and connec
tions can then be made. Our citizens
may now get ready to give orders
probably by next Monday for their
connections.

the loss of each performance at about

Mr.. Miller received the following
letter this morning from Houston,
which is worthy of publications:

Before the reporter left Mr.. Miller
related an amusing incident that took
place Monday night. He ordered all
the people of the company to take off
their clothes to be fumigated, and he
also took off his. Each tied their
clothes in a bundle and placed it in
front of their doors, where it was col
lected and taken to the opera house
to be disinfected. This deprived the
members of all their clothes and they
had to sit in their rooms wrapped in
bed sheets. The clothes were not re-
turned until Tuesday morning. At
tired in this "ROman toga," as Mr..
Miller expressed it, the male members
sat around their supper table on the
porch of the third floor of the hotel,
while the ladies had supper served in
their rooms. ''Now, suppose a fire
