Decentralization of Passenger Rates
Calls for a Meeting of West
ern Association.

The movement of flour since Sept.
/, when the restored rate went into
effect, is excellent, according to tie
freight men interested in handling
this product, and from all reports
there is no need of cutting below the
tariff of 221a cents from Minneapolis
to the seaboard, for there is plenty
of business to go around. The out
put in Minneapolis is good, and has
kept up the shipments Of wheat from.
the farms AND elevators.
The railroad men say that mucn
of the wheat which has gone into
stack has been wet by the rains, and
the threshing of it has necessarily
been retarded to some extent. This
trouble over, it is expected that the
shipments of grain into the terminal
points will be steady. Still the fact
that there is a rising market will
have a tendency to make the farmers
hold their wheat. Notwithstanding
this, the roads are making every CT
fcrt to avoid the annual scarcity of
cars.

II
zatien of Business.
George MacRae. assistant general
passenger agent of the Omaha road,
returned yesterday morning from Chi
cago, where he attended the meeting
of the ST. Paul. Chicago lines, held for
the purpose of doing something to end
the existing generalization in passen-
ger rates and adjust certain other diff
ficulties which are at present thorn
in the flesh of the railroad men.
According to Mr.. MacRae the men
who met have little faith in their
ability to cure the present trouble and
agreed that a general meeting of the
Western Passenger association should
be called without delay. The rates are
being cut, the commissions are being
increased so much that the situation
is quite discouraging, and the weaker
lines are more apathetic than ever.
At this general meeting, which will be
called for early next week, the matter
of interchangeable mileage books will
also come up. The Wisconsin Central,
it is understood, will hold off its Oct.
/ proposition on mileage books, if q
satisfactory form of interchangeabl
book is adopted within sixty days. The
weaker lines naturally feel that they
lose business against mileage which is
as valuable as that on such systems
as the Omaha, Northwestern and Bur
lington. ~.

the road. Furnace men who have not
yet been able to secure foothold on
the range have been negotiating with
Col. McNaught, and believe that the
new road will enable them to get ore
as cheaply as the larger furnace COM

President MOhier On the Effect {
Alaskan Discoveries.


Alaskan Discoveries.
In the Alaskan situation President
Mohler, of the O. r. & N. company,
sees much which argues fer a bright
future for North Pacific coast cities.
Said he in an interview in comment
ing on this point and the Alaskan sit
uation generally:
The settlement of Alaska, if the
gold excitement continues, will exert
very important influence on the fut-
ure Of the North Pacific coast cities.
They will reap a very decided advan-
tage, as they must of necessity be-
come the gateways for all Of Alasla's
freight and passenger traffic. Too
little about the Alaska situation ana
its sources are yet known. The
parties best informed are the Alaska
Trading company and the Northwest
ern Transportation company These
have greatly increased their fleets of
boats this fall and undoubtedly
would not do so if they were not sat
iSfied that the future of the country
was not in every way as represented.
mo attempt ought to be made at
this time Of year to enter that eour-
try for the purpose of exploration.
There are a great many sensational
reports issued daily, most of them for
mercenary purposes, as the COMPETE
ton between the Southeastern Alaska
route and the Yukon route is quit
vigorous, and both are inclined to
misrepresent the advantages of the
other
OF the business conditions of his
own district President Mohler has
this to say.
"Oregon and Washington are in a
very furnishing condition The large
grain crop and the high prices offered
will have a tendency to relieve the
business depression that has been SO
severely felt, especially by the agri-
cultural interests. During the early
part of the season the eX-Democratic
candidate for president appeared and
extensively preached calamity among
US, which was Immediately suppressed
ed by prosperity after his departure
from the state, with the result that
the financial problems at the present
time are rarely discussed. Gold is
freely circulated, and it is rare that
you receive in exchange for gold any
paper money. 1t is a singular anom-
ally that q state supposed to be par
tial to the silver platform insists on
having gold as the current medium OF
exchange"
Mr. Mohler believes that the new
passenger and freight service with
China and ultimately with the other
side Of the world via the .SiberiaH
railway and Vladivostock Will make
Portland as important a gateway as
New York City.

INTERCHANGEABLE TICKET.
Committee Of the Western AssOria-
ton Ready to Report.

CHICAGO, Sept 15.-The subcom-
nlittee of the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION, which has under considera-
ton the interchangeable mileage
tickets, has announced that it is ready
to report, and meeting of the exec
utive committee of the association will
be held tomorrow to hear what the
committee has decided to recommend.
It is not likely that any formal action
will be taken at the meeting.
The general meeting of all the West
ern roads for the purpose of consider
ing the rate situation will be held some
time this month. 1t was originally de-
cided to call the meeting for about
Sept. 20. but it has been found impos
sible to get all of the roads to send
representatives at that time, and the
matter has necessarily been delayed.
Those having the matter in charge are
now confident that the meeting will be
held about the 25th of the present
month.

SOME DAMAGING EVIDENCE SUB
MITTED BY THE STATE
AGAINST LUETGERT,
BONES THOSE OF A WOMAN.
POSITIVE TESTIMONY ON THIS
POINT GIVEN BY AN EXPERT
WITNESS.
BIG SAUSAGE MAKER TROUBLED.
Fragments Offered by the Prosecu-
ton Examined With a ScOSyl-
Jury Given an Outing.

!. CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-The prosecu-
ton in the Luetgert trial is nearing its
end, and the announcement was made
today that it would probably have all
of its witnesses on the stand by Satur-
day noon. The evidence given today
weighed heavily against Luetgert, and
no more damaging testimony has been
given against him than that from
Prof. George A. Dorsey, of the Field
Columbian museum, who was on the
stand this afternoon. One of the bones
found in the sausage factory was
shown him, and in the most positive
manner and without a particle of hest
tation. he pronounced it to be the up
per portion of the left thigh bone Of a
woman. He said that the formation
of the upper end of the bone proved
without any question that it was the
femur of a woman. The bone had the
appearance of being burned, and AS
sistant States Attorney McEwen put
the question to the witness: could
a solution of caustic potash have pro-
duced the burnt effect you have point
ed out on the bone?"
The reply of the witness was en-
phatic and immediate "In my judg-
ment it could"
The evidence was a hard blow to the
defense, and LUetgert scowled blackly
at the witness. Prof. Dorsey also iden-
titled a bone shown him as the left
temporal bone of a woman.
This evidence produced sensation
in the court room. Prof. Dorsey is a
well known PSYCHOLOGIST, though a
young man. He has Travelled in India,
South America and Alaska in the in
terest of the Field Columbian museum.
The prosecution reserved its croSs-eX-
animation until tomorrow.
DR.. Norval H. Pierce also identified
one of the bones previously shown
Prof. Dorsey as the left temporal bone
of a female, and it was his opinion
that caustic potash might have pro-
duced the scared and brittle condition
of the bone. Attorney Vincent, for the
defense, asked leave to have the bones
produced examined by experts, and
said he would not cross-examine DIR.
Pierce until tomorrow. His request
was granted.
Iuetgert picked up both pieces of the
bones, which are said to have been
found in his sausage factory, and ex-
amined them, with a scowl upon his
heavy features. The positive testi-
mony of the two experts troubled the
big sauSagemaker. q
Judge Tuthill suggested at the close
of the afternoon session that the mem
beers of the jury be given a street car
rid %
to be carried out hereafter daily. His
honor also changed the hour of open
ing court from $50 to 10 o'clock a. m.
This was done to give the jurors half
an hour extra time each morning.
Judge Tuthill urged each of the jurors
to take the best of care of his health
during the present warm weather.

WHITE HOUSE THRONGED.
Many Anxious to Call on the Presi-
dent,

dent.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The White
house was thronged with official Wis
itors today, and the president was kept
busy from an early hour with the
steady stream of callers. The first Was
Judge Day, assistant secretary OF
state, who came at S:15 o'clock. He
and the president were together for
some time, presumably in relation to
Cuban affairs and Gen. Lees visit, al
though no information as to the ma
ture of the call was obtainable. Sen
ator Thurston, of Nebraska, arrived
later in the morning and had a talk
with the president The senator said
it did not relate to the sale of the
Union Pacific railroad, but to several
pending appointments, including two
consulships AS to the Pacific rail-
roads. he said that the people of his
section We're satisfied to have the SUB
ject taken out of politics and given TO
the impartial care CT the courts.
The French ambassador, NJ ate
notre, was with the president for about
fifteen minutes for the purpose, 1T Is
understood, of arranging to take up the
negotiations for a reciprocity arrange
ment and treaty between the United
States and France. The preliminary
steps were taken by the ambassador
during the presidents absence, and it
was then arranged with Secretary
Sherman that the negotiations would
be deferred until the presidents return.
Senator Platt, of New York, accom-
panied by several candidates for OF
flee. called shortly before noon and
was Immediately shown to the cabinet
room, where the president received
callers. Among the other callers were
Commissioner Buterworth, Representa-
tives Bowden. of Virginia, and Living

ers. including United States Marshal

probate judge of Fall River county,
South Dakota, to which the reserva-
ton is attached for judicial purposes,
has declined to take charge of the man,
as have the authorities in Nebraska,
where Woodruff lived before going to
Dakota. In view of these facts the
agent at Pine Ridge asks if the man
cannot be sent to the government in
sane asylum near this city. The In
dian bureau will ask the Indians if
they will contribute to the expense of
Woodruff's care at the asylum before
deciding to recommend his acceptance.

DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 15.-There are

feature is more important to this sec

definitely but on the contrary post

of allowing the sale to proceed that it
is considered by those familiar with

night, and will be delivered to Sheriff
J. H. Sanchez, of Valencia county, with
instructions to proceed at once to Zu-
nj, and invoke the assistance of Maj.
Godfrey in making the arrest of the
accused chiefs. Owing to the practical
failure of other military expeditions
against this insolent set of Pueblos, the
outcome of this attempt to subdue
