HITCH IN TlHEl PLANS
About the Through Tariff sheet
Agreed Upon.


There is some kind of a hitch in the plan
agreed upon by the Trunk Line association
freight committee and the Western Freight
association. to apply the $1.15 cent basis from
the Atlantic seaboard to st. Paul. in compe-
tition with the same basis inaugurated two
months ago by the 500 line. At a meeting
OF the trunk line and the Western Freight
association representatives In New York ten
days ago 1t was unanimously agreed to apply
the above basis, 1. e., 81 Is. The notices were
Immediately gotten out, and the Official au-
thortty reached the city yesterday in the form
of circulars signed by all the roads interested.
Yesterday. however the situation wes I'M
expectedly and mysteriously changed. A tele--
gram was received from Commissioner
Blanchard. Of the Trunk Line association
saying that that association had annulled the
agreement, at least for the time being, and
that consequently the roads in the association
would not issue the tariffs. No reasons were
assigned for the sudden change of heart.
Bany Of the Chicago-St. Paul lines, acting
upon the statement that the rates had been
agreed upon, have tariffs ready to send out.
The roads may issue the tariffs at any rate.

YOUNG FITZ TACKLES Pa.
Is Knocked Out by the Champion in
the Second Round.

Robert FitzSimmOnS, junior received
his first defeat at the hands of Robert
F1tzsimmons, senior, in room 8 at the
ThrOop hotel early this morning. When
the FitZsimmons family left the hotel
at $50 this morning the coming pugil-
ist was still brooding over the cham
piOn'S victory, and smiling an accom-
paniment to his thoughts.
4 don't mind tie boy being a fight
er, remarked the senior Bob, but [
don't want him to commence on me
one of me eyes out, and me head still
rings from i'm beating it with a 'orse-
shoe. / got the strap off a little trunk
he has, and spanked the little bugger
good
The little bugger'' looked rather well
spanked as he walked around the hotel
office with his chubby fists rubbing his
eyes already red with crying. Occa-
siOnally he removed his hands long
enough to look under his eyebrows at
the worlds champion, and it was a look
which pOrtended no good for the senior
member of the Fitzsimmons family
when the junior member grew big
enough to fight
The yOungster awoke before his faith
er this morning, and it was this fact
that was responsible for Fitz' last en-
counter. He wanted company and pro-
ceeded to wake the pugilist in wholly
original way.
Crawling out of the bed he secured
one of Fitz' souvenir horseshoes, used
by him in winning the worlds cham
plOnShlp Tor nOrSeShOelng, and given to
the chld as a plaything, and then re-
turned to the sleeping gladiator. In
another minute the horseshoe descend
ed on the head of the pugilist with all
the strength the child could muster
The blow had the desired effect of
breaking F'itz' sIumber, but he did not
at once start from his sleep. Instead
he slowly opened one eye and drew in
a deep breath. The eye opening pro-
cess attracted the child's attention and
his fat index finger was at once ad-
vanced into the organ of sight while
the horseshoe was again brought down
on his fathers head with the other
hand. This time the pugilist's awaken
ing was instantaneous and complete.
A few minutes afterwards a child's
walls were audible on the second floor
of the hotel. The hand that smote Jim
Corbett was again at its work of pun
ishment, this time not in a scientific
exhibition of pugilistic art but an old
fashioned spanking with the end of a
strap.

OUsTING BRITISH TRADE.
English Manufacturers are Suffering
From American Comp etition.

London, Nov. 24.-Right Hon. Chas.
T. Ritchie, president OF the board of
trade made an important speech be
fore the chamber OF commerce OF Croy-
don today, taking as his theme the
decline OF British exports during the
last ten months, upon which he hung a
grave warning against American COM
petition, now "ousting British trade"
MI Ritchie, after declaring that the
Dingley tariff bill and the engineering
trade dispute were mainly responsible
for the recent decline of exports, and
after pointing out that England had no
weapons against the tariff, said there
was a great deal of talk in commercial
circles about the serious competition of
Germany; but he thought they were
TOO apt to overlook a more serious COM
petition in the United States.
The facts are serious" he continu-
ed. and call upon US for the exercise
of all our powers to enable US to main
tain our position in the commercial
world There is no doubt the United
States is executing orders which ought
to be executed here. AS we all know,
an American firm obtained the con-
tract for the central underground rail-
way of London, as its bid was lower
than those of the English concerns and
it could deliver the supplies three
months ahead of the British tenders.
Many important continental orders
have gone to America
THE same is to be said of Egypt and
Japan, where the Americans are doing
work that EngIishmen should have
done. In consequence of the engi-
neering dispute many orders are leav-
ing the country; and. unfortunately,
these orders seldom return.
Americas successful competition IS
due to her enterprise in embarking
capital, but it is yet more due to the
freedom her manufacturers enjoy of
employing the best machinery and
working it in the most economical
manner, untrammeled by the restrie-
tions which have hampered manufac-
turers here. Everyone having his
country's interest at heart must hope
that the approaching conference Will
lead to a settlement of the unfortunate
ansineeriuer dispute

WOMEN EQUAL TO MEN.
Perry Heath's Report on the Employ
ment of Women in Postohices.

Washington, Nov 24-First Assistant
Postmaster General Heath has trans
mitted to the postal administration of
the German government through Sec
Ond Assistant Shallenberger, a sCompre-
hensive report on the employment of
women in the government service. He
states there are q, ,221 postofices in the
United States, at each of which there
are several employees who lawfully may
be either men or women. POStmaSterS
at third and fOurth-claSS offices select
their own employees without consulting
the department and it is accordingly
impossible to give the exact number Of
women employed in the postal service.
There are however, 1870 women post
masters and perhaps 5000 women to
whom the oath of office has been adj
ministered to qualify them to assist in
conducting the business of the post
office. There are 167 women employed
in the poStoffice department proper
Women, the report says are employed
in all branches of the postal service ex-
ceut as letter carriers, clerks in the rail-
way mail service and postofice inspect
ors. They are not debarred by rule or
regulation from entering any branch of
the service. In fact there are postof-
fees in the United States at which
there are not women employed. The
same salary is paid them as to men for
the same character of work. In the
pOStOff1ce department, salaries now paid
to women vary from $240 to 81, 800 per
annum, according to service performed,
though there is no rule preventing them
4 from receiving more IHdn ludls anu DIS
pOstmasters or assistant they some
times receive much larger salaries.
Some of the most faithful and eff
cient employees in the postal service are
women.
Continuing the report says it has
been a mooted question for many years
with the heads of the executive depart
mentS whether women can render as
good general service as men, because
the latter may be transferable at all
times to any positions, whereas women
may be confronted with duties in
sense indelicate or which require too
much manual labor But it is seldom
that duty involve upon any clerk or Of
ficer which cannot be properly perform
ed by women.
The conclusion of the department is
that, altogether the services of women
have proven almost, if not equally sat
isfactory with those of men The report
is based on a request of the German
government as to what has been the
general experience of the government
with women employees.

pany was given a verdict today and
agreed to damages to the amount of
SIS, $50 against the London and West
minister Contract Corporation for
breach of agreement to purchase the

alleges fraudulent Misrepresentation
on the part of a New York lawyer, L.
E. Warren. Eventually the litigants
reached a settlement which includes
that Mr. Warren should have the op-
portunity of denying under oath the
allegations made against him Con-
sequently Mr.. Warren appeared in
court and denied that he or anyone in
his behalf, had made any of the al
legged Misrepresentation. adding that
if the defendants We're misled by any
of his statements, it was quite unin-
territorial upon his part.

BRIDGE PLANS CHANGED.
Asphalt Paint Instead of Asphalt to
be Used on the Road Bed.

If County Commissioner Scott Kelsey
keeps his word there is trouble ahead
for the bridge contractors, Superintend-
ent Hinckley and the other two mem
bers of the board, Commissioners D. A
Williams and T. P. Rodgers.
Some time ago the bridge contract
ors made a proposition for a change in
the plans. 1t had been provided that
the interior of the work on the bridge
should receive a half inch coat of as
phalt and the contractors asked that
that provision be changed to allow the
use of asphalt paint instead. Superin-
tendent Hinckley endorsed the demand
County Commissioner Scott Kelsey
opposed the demand and the matter
went over. Late Yesterday afternoon
it was taken up again. The contractors
had made a concession and agreed if
the change was ordered to allow a re-
bate Of $40O on the contract It had
been represented before that there
would be no difference in the cost.
Commissioner Kelsey said:
4 have looked up this matter and [
have inquired of the Santa Fe and
Rock Island people about it and I am
satisfied that asphalt paint is not so
good as the asphalt called for in the
specifications and I shall never consent
to this change. If it is made L shall
go into the court and ask for an injunc-
ton for I am satisfied that we have no
right to accept this rebate"
In spite of the protest the change was
made, Commissioners T. p Rodgers
and d. A. Williams voting in favor of

The Port Patrick is Destroyed
by Fire i'm East River
Captain and Crew Barely Es-
cape With Their Lives.
FIRE STARTS IN HOLD.
The Vessel Contained a Large
Cargo of Oils.
Terrific Explosions Take Place
in Quick Succession.

New York. Nov. 24.-The full rugged
ship Port Patrick of the Port Line, Of
Glasgow, Scotland Captain Frank
Hand. was almost wholly destroyed by
fire at her dock in the East River to-
day.
Her cargo valued at about S1OO0OO
was also destroyed. The cause of the
fire is unknown. 1t broke out in the
forward lower hold and spread so
quickly that the crew of u men and the
captain and the mate had barely time
to get ashore alive.
The Port Patrick arrived here from
Java on october with cargo of Su-
gar. She had discharged her cargo and
was being loaded with oils and mater
ials for Australian ports. She was TO
sail from here on December .. Among
other things stored away in the hold
were 25,G00 cases of kerosene, each case
containing 225 gallon tins. There We're
thousands of barrels of other oils The
fire was discovered by the watchmau
on the upper deck, While the crew were
all asleep. The watchman gave the
alarm and the crew scrambled out from
their bunkS as best they could and
made for the gangWay to the pier.
In a few seconds the big ship was
enVelOped in a thick cloud of smoke
which poured out from the hatchway.
The fire boats, New Yorker and Have
myer soon had a dozen streams playing
on the burning vessel, but With little eff
feet. The firemen forced their way on
matches and poured such streams OF
water into the holds that it seemed as
if the vessel would sink from sheer
weight of water. Two tug boats which
were lying beside the Port Patrick were
towed out into the river. After about
three hours work when the hremen
were congratulating themselves upon
having the fire under control a terrific
explosion sent debris flying in every di-
rection and knocked the hremen off
their feet.
Savaral Of tho frey,7ar, 1,a,7 ,, a ,.r.e,,r- es
capes from falling into the smoke filed
holds and one was overcome. He was
dragged ashore by his companions as
soon as they regained their feet. The
first explosion was followed by sec
ond and a third and gradually the yes
sci began to sink until there was
scarcely anything left of her above the
water.
The Port Patrick was built in Glas-
gov eight years ago by the Russells.
She was 268 feet long, SO feet beam. p
feet draft. She was a fullrigged steel
clipper. She was valued at about $780,
900.

PAN-AMERICAN DOLLAR.
Silver Standard for All America Pre-
dicted in Europe.

London. Nov. 24.-The Vienna cor
respondent of the Times, telegraphing
with reference to the statement made
by Count Goluchowski, the Austro-
Hungarian foreign minister, in his re-
cent address to the delegations when
he appealed to all Europe to unite
against the Destructive competition
now carried on against US by trans
oceanic countries gives the opinion
of an exceptionally competent and
well informed friend" that since Lord
Salisbury's rejection of the proposals
of the WolcOtt commission, the trade
barrier between the European and
American continents is "likely to be
forestaIled by a monetary barrier
raised by America, which would has
ten the advent Of American prepond'
erance.'
The authority cited by the cores
pondent of the Times predicts the
adoption of the silver dollar as the
standard coin from the North pole to
Patagonia, which would be a powerful
lever in the realization of the Pan
American programme of the politicians
of the United States
