RATES FOR THE FIGHT.
Southern Pacific Disposed to Be
Liberal in the Matter.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2.-Col. c.. F.
Crocker, first vice president of the Southern
Pacific, was asked If his company would
oppose making a reasonable reduction in
rates to the Corbett-Fitzsimmons contest.
Without hesitation he replied that he was in
favor of making a rate that would induce
the largest crowd possible to go, but that sew
eral facts had to be taken into consideration.
One was the attitude Of Eastern connections
of the Southern Pacific in making reduced
rates from Eastern Cities Another was the
extent to whcih the Southern Pacific in it's
own territory like California for instance
could make reductions without interfering
with local rates between California and
Nevada points. He said: "I realize it is to
the interest of the Southern Pacific as
business proposition to haul as many people
as possible to the contest The trip from here
to Nevada is an interstate trip. If a reduc-
t1on is made in tine rates, a three days no.
tce must be given to the interstate COM
merce commission before it can go into effect
Then the reduced rates must be open to
everybody and on that account the regular
travel OF the railroad will be disturbed. Now
viii enough people from the East attend the
fight to warrant the Eastern roals to request
us to join them in making reduced rate
from the East? l for one do not know If
they request it I am sure the Southern Pacific
will not oppose it. But the Eastern roads must
decide the question for themselves we can
not act for them

Bicycle RunaYvays.

The runway in stable is an inclined plane
up and down which horses are led to and
fro mtheir quarters above or below the level
Of the sidewalk. There may be steps beside
it, or cleats nailed across at side, to give
a foothold to the person leading the horse.
The runway Is naturally associated in the
mind with horses, but there are runways now
for that silent steed the bicycle, made just
like those for horses, except that the surface
of the inclined plane is smooth, and not COW
cred as it would be for horses, with some
substance to give the horse secure footing.
The bicycle may be upstairs or downstairs;
taking a bicycle up or down one walks on the
steps and rolls the bicycle comfortably beside
him on the runway.

"GAGE Is A DAISY"
So Bryan Says, But He Is Not In
Earnest.

GALVESTON, Tex, Feb. I'm re-
gard to the statement sent out last
night by the Associated Press, giving
an interview with Lyman J. Gage, Mr.
Bryan said today: Mr. Gage is a
daisy. Greenbacks should, he says, be
retired and silver purchased under the
Sherman act should be sold, and treas
ury notes redeemed and Cancelled. Then
we ought to have bank notes that are
redee1nable only in gold. And he also
says the government should not act as
a. warehouse for either gold or silver.
There is no doubt about Mr. Gage
being a daisy. i wonder if he would
not like to inaugurate a SYSTEM by
which we would have to obtain his
permission each morning to live
throughout the day"

KNEE,B APPEAL,
Hearing Of the Case Begun by the
Berlin Court.

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-The hearing of the appeal
OF the American trotting horse owner Robert
T. Kneeb, against the Judgment of the court
condemning him to nine months Imprisonment
for entering the mare Bethel under the
name OF Nellie Kneeb, and starting her in
races on German tracks, commenced here TO-
day. When Kneeb appeared in court he
was weak and pale from the effects of four
teen months imprisonment. The deposition
which ne presented through his attorneys
was similar to the sworn statement made on
his first trial. New and additional testimony
was produced to the effect that Kneeb was Of
fered reward of 81 900 If it could be proved
that Bethel and Nellie Kneeb were different
horses. 1t is expected that the trial will last
three or four days Veterinary Expert Prof.
Eggelng, who recently returned from Amer
lea, where he examined the mare Bethel, will
be the chief witness.
