REEVES AND HENRY.
Freight Men Returning From the
Kansas CITY Conference.

Freight Agents S. ]. Henry of the Rio
Grande Western and John Reeves of the
Oregon Short Line, who have been in
Kansas City TO attend a conference of
freightmen left for home yesterday. The
assembly represented all trans-MissOuri
roads and was held for the purpose of
settling upon plan for the rating of
live stock.
A plan had already been agreed upon
which was TO put live stock shipments
upon the same basis as other freight.
This was strenuously objected 10 by the
shippers of live stock, and as the roads
were not unanimous the conference at
Kansas City was called. The new plans
are TO prevent shippers from hiring cars
and crowding into them as many head as
the cars can hold, as has heretofore been
done. 1t is not yet known whether the
change will be made, and nothing Aie4i-
mite will be decided upon until about the
10Th of the present month.
General Traffic Manager Eccles says
that the settlement of the affairs de-
Dends on the action to be taken by the
Southern Pacific. If that road consents
TO make the change, all the other roads
will undoubtedly follow suit. But if the
Southern Pacific determines continue
business on the same basis &alhas for
merly been done, there will be no action
taken.

SPECULATION VERY ACTIVE.
Bradstreet's Reviews the Work of the
Week.

New York, Aug 6.-Bradstreet's re-
view tomorrow of the stock market will
say: At no time for several years has
speculation been so active or displayed
such decided strength. Advances have
been general and the most striking
feature of the week was the growth of
public interest in the market and the
large buying power thus supplied. To
some extent the smaller traders have
worked to produce reaction, and at
times the market has looked as if the
exhaustion of the buying power would
result in a retrograde movement. All
such movements have, however, proved
to be only temporary, and at conces-
sions fresh buying appears. Large
interests show a decided confidence in
the character of the market. At the
close of the week the bear traders
showed Encouragement. The only I'M
favorable news was in regard to the
condition of corn in western Kansas.
Otherwise the crop and harvest reports
have been most favorable, while the
movement of grain to market is pro-
ducing an exceptionally large freight
movement On railroads. Earnings are
increasing in every direction. The
heavy foreign purchases of wheat gave
great satisfaction to Wall street, one OF
the results being that exchange rates
have broken, and the prospect is con-
sidered encouraging for gold imports
during the autumn.

Few women realize the influence ex-
erted on their bodily and mental well

Sarah Bond, proprietress of Bonds
restaurant. III Main street, has entered
suit for divorce from Joseph Bond. She
alleges that on March 1, 1891. on the
promise of reformation and better
treatment. she remarked the defendant
at Delta City, Colo; that the defend
ant is a man of Incorporate habits and
given TO periods OF intoxication, and at
such times treats the plaintiff with cru
city and uses profane and abusive Ian
guage to her.
Among the many acts of cruelty al
legged, IL is stated that in July, 1896, the
defendant seized her by the throat,
choked her. struck her in the face with
his clenehed fist, drawing blood copi-
ously and called her vile names.
On Aug. 3, 1897, he became violent
and abusive and compelled her to walk
alone from their ranch northeast of the
city to their home in the city, a dis
lance of Z miles, while he rode home
with a horse and buggy over the same
road. She also says he threatens TO
beat her and do her great bodily harm.
The plaintiff further alleges that she
owns and conducts the restaurant at
III Main street, worth about $1,000, and
that defendant becomes intoxicated
and visieS the restaurant and uses
loud, profane and offensive language to
plaintiff and others, thereby driving
away patrons and destroying the bust
ness.
Defendant, it is alleged, owns ranch
worth $1,000, including the stock, and
yielding a profit over a good living for
him.
Mrs. Bond prays that she be award
ed a decree Of divorce ana that pending
the hearing of the suit her husband be
restrained from visiting her restaur-
ant or interfering with her peace of
business or her employees.
Judge Cherry issued a temporary re-
straining order as prayed.

GERMANS Again PROTEST.
SAY THE SUGAR SCHEDULE Is A
DISCRIMINATION.
Action Incompatible With the Most
Favored Nation Rights Secured
to Germany By Features Now In
Force.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The German
government has again entered a for
nal protest against the application to
German sugar of section of the new
tariff act, by which German sugar
would be taxed with a higher duty than
that from other countries. 1t is not
denied that the German sugar clearly
comes within the provisions of section
5 by reason of the payment of an ex-
port bounty, but the contention is
made that the additional duty imposed
is in effect a discrimination against
German sugar, which is Incompatible
with the most favored nation rights
that are secured to German produc-
tons by the treaties now in force, and
also with the provisions of the Sara
toga agreement of Aug. %, 1891.
AS TO the first contention, the Ger
man charge d'affaires, Mr.. Won Reiche-
nau, in his note to the secretary of
state, appears to revive the position
taken in June, 1896, with respect to the
duties leviable upon bountied sugars.
The matter was then considered in
connection with the discriminating
tariff provision of Aug. q, 1894, in re-
lation to salt duties by the attorney
general, Mr.. Olney, who held that I'M
QcI llldl dCl salt vas lSSdIy OulletDic
Mr.. Won Reichenau's note refers gen.
orally to treaties, but it seems his par
ticular reference is to the treaty of
May 1. 1928. between the United States
and Prussia.
1t is observed by the state depart
ment that it is still without any in
formation from the German govern
ment on the point raised by Mr.. Olney
as to whether the treaty with Prussia
is to be taken as effective with respect
to other portions of the empire, or is
only to the productions Of
Prussia, exported from Prussia. AS to
the contention that the tariff provision
is incompatible with the terms of the
Saratoga treaty of August, 1891, the
state department takes the position
that that agreement ceased with the
passage of the tariff act of Aug. p,
1894, which repealed section of the act
of Oct. l, 1890.
No reference is made whatever in
Mr.. Won Reichenaus note to the other
sections of the act which extend the
scope of the increased duties to all
goods upon which export bounty is
paid.

Strike of the Operatives of Fulton
(Ga.) Mills.

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 6.-The strike of
/ 400 operatives of the Fulton Bag &
Cotton mills against the employment of
negro labor, which was supposed to
have been settled, is on again today
An agreement was reached between the
strikers and President Elsas. but when
the contract drawn up by the strikers
was presented TO Mr.. Elsas. he de-
clined TO sign it, and the settlement
was declared off.
The cause of the new disagreement
is the demand of the strikers that the
mill not only withdraw the negro
women who were the cause of the
strike, but all other negroes employed
except firemen and scrub women.
At $3.50 o'clock this afternoon COM
mittee from the strikers held a confer
ence with President Elsas. at the con-
clusion of which it was announced that
Mr.. Elsas still declined to sign the
agreement submitted by the strikers.
The striking operatives held a meeting
and initiated new members into the
textile workers union. with view to
preparing for protracted strike.

CHIEF JUAN LOPEZ SHOT.
Too Much Firewater Causes His TAX
ing Off.

Phoenix, Ariz., Aug. 6.-News has
just been received here that Chief Juan
Lopez, of the Papago tribe, on the ella
reservation, was shot and instantly
killed last night near Maricopa station,
by Pima Indian, called Louis. The
Indians at the camp near Maricopa
have for days been on a protracted
spree, securing whisky from the Mex
leans. According to authentic informa-
ton, Lopez had gone TO stop the de-
bauch, but instead himself became in
toxicated, and made more trouble than
any of the others. This resulted in an
attack upon him by four Pimas.
AS he was man of giant stature
and strength, the chief was having the
best of the fight until Louis, securing a
revolver, shot him through the heart.
The murderer is still at large, but
will be brought in by the Indians if
wanted by the authorities.

and Shattered-The Electrical Ap-
planes Disarranged.

The lightning yesterday played havoc
with the electrical appliances in and
around the city and county building. The
damage appears to have been all done by
the brilliant and very extensive flash Of
electricity, accompanied by a tremendous
peal of thunder, which occurred about 2:15
in the afternoon. A telephone pole on
Second East street on the edge of the
city and county grounds was struck by
the deadly fluid, il fluid 1t is. shattered 10
pieces and charred and blackened. Those
Watching the storm saw a ball OF fire
flying from north TO south till il struck
the Inflated pole, when il disappeared in
to the earth. Within the building num-
bers of the wires on the switchboard were
fused and broken. Such was the fate of
me wire WHICH conveyed the power TO the
elevator, and it was some hours before
the engineer got il repaired. The wires
conveying the light to the various rooms
were more or less injured, and it kept
the electricians busy to get them into
shape before nightfall.
