AFTER THE sCALPERS.

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-United States
Senator Cullom, chairman OF the senate
committee on interstate commerce, has
prepared a report on ticket scalping. the
result of which, he says. will be to send
the bill for the prohibition Of ticket
scalping through with rush as soon as
congress meets.
Senator Culloms position on the ques-
ton is very important. AS chairman of
the committee which has the matter in
ence on the fate of the measure. Now
that he has come out decidedly in favor
of the measure, railroad officials regard
the bill as good as passed.
BEET MEN COMPLAIN
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1O.-At the
meeting of the railroad commissioners
today a complaint was received from
beet sugar growers near the refinery at
Chino, alleging that they are being dis
eliminated against by the company
which is carrying beets from ranches
100 miles away at a rate as low as the
local one. In the absence of further ev-
, idence, Commissioner LeRue gave it as
his opinion that the company Is doing
this to encourage beet culture, and that
it has a right to make a special rate.
The Corral Hollow railroad filed it's
schedule of reight and passenger rates.
HILLS SUCCESSOR.
WALLACE, Idaho, Nov 10.-It is be-
lieyed here that Daniel Lamont, Vice
President of the Northern Pacific rail-
way, will, within two months, succeed
President Hill as the head of the North
ern Pacific system. The opinion is based
on the tone of messages which passed
between Lamont and Hill while the
former was here recently. The telegraph
correspondence was of such nature
as to indicate that Lamont's trip was
solely to acquaint himself with the con-
dition Of the road. to prepare himself for

FROM FOOT TO KNEE

Ohio Woman Suffered Great Agony
 From a Terrible Sore-Her Story of
 the Case, and Her Cure.
 For many years was afflicted with a milk leg, and few years ago it broke out in sore and spread from my foot to my knee. I suffered great agony. It would burn and itch all the time and discharge a great deal. My health was good with the exception of this sore. I tried great many kinds of saIve, but some would irritate the Sore so that I could hardly stand the pain. I could not go near the fire without suffering intensely. Some one sent me papers containing testimonials of cures by Hoods SarsaparilIa, and I told my husband I would like to try this med icine. He got me bottle and found it helped me. I kept on taking it until my limb was completely healed. I cannot praise Hoods SarsaparilIa enough for the great benefit it has been to me. It cIeanses the blood of all impurities and leaves it rich and pure." MRS. ANNA E. EAKEN, Whittlesey, Ohio.
 You can buy Hoods SarsapariIIa of all druggists. Be sure to get only Hoods.

A BOLD RESISTANCE. Band of Train Robbers Were
 Rolled.
ONE OF THEM KILLED.
Wells Fargo Messenger and De- tective Have a Battle With
 Train Robbers.

The MsFicops and Phoenix train Gss I over two hours late this morning, due
 to 8 delay on No. 20, the west bound Southern Pacific train. The delay wss
 caused by the wesb bound being held up by four masked robbers last night
 about 9:30 o'clock st Stems Pass. The robbers boarded the train at the
 station and compelled the engineer to
 run over the hill where 1t was stopped
 and the robbers then made an effort to enter she mail and express car.
 They attempted to force open tf 6
 door but were repulsed by fusillsde Of shots from the interior. The robbers returned the fire aud sooH the car was
 perforated like a sIevs with bullets.
 Wells Fargo Messenger Adair and De- tecsive Jenkins of Welle, Fargo & Ce., were in the express car and it wss they who made such gallant resistance The had wasted all their ammunition with the exception of tbe load in their guns, while the robbers still continued to pour lead into the car
 Finally the detective cautiously open ed tbeside.door sud one of the robbers thinking the inmates had surrendered very imprudently stuck his head in st the open door. AdslF immediately fired at him. and the robher fell back dead with the top os his head blown of.
 The other robbers became dishesrteD- ed at the death of their comrede, ard after ticiog another fussilsde into the open door they disappeared Tn the darkness.
 train men prudently remained in the rear part of the train. leaving the Wells, Fsrgo's messerg ger and detective to fight alone. The engineer and fire man could not come to their assistance. as they were unsrmed and covered by the guns of the robbers, who never for a moment allowed their vigilance to fe- lax.
 The train had 8 heavy passenger list but the mt iority of them crouched un- der the seats of the cars while the more wsrlike of the passengers were forced to remain quIet as they were not en- by acts of daring by the train crew, who themselves remained inactive.
 Oae of the other robbers was wound sd but managed to escape On the per son of the dead Fobber wss 8 letter v hich showed his name to be Ed Cullen, st one time an employs of the Bisbee railroad.
 Within a short tima after tha hold-un posse wss in hot pursuit of the rob oers, who are supposed 10 be members if Black Jacks gang.

Yesterday the HERALD took occa- sion to publish the opinion of the Los
 Angeles Express on the matter of Statehood for Arizona. Under the quoted caption of this article the De troit Journal expresses itself as fol lows:
 Arizona wants to be admitted as q State Its population, according to the last United States census, was 59.62O. It is not fair to admit as States Terri tories whose population is less than the ratio allowed d single Congress district To make q comparison with one of our own counties: Saginaw. for instance, has q greater population than Arizona, and is better entitled to have two Senators in Congress and q member of the House than is the Territory This view of the equities of representation has not hitherto pre- vailed and may not in this instance. For example. we may look at Idaho. Wyoming, Montana. New Mexico. and worst of aIlNevada which has a pop ulation of about the same number as Jackson county. The chief effect of filling the Senate with two members from each of these States has been to silver polish the wings of the Ameri- can eagle, and to embarrass the pas sage of legislation in the interests of the great industrial States. There will be no harm in letting Arizona Mait-,

The sO-called protests of foreign countries against the DingIey tariff law do not seem to have ayaiIed any thing more in their effect upon our commerce with those countries than they did in their effect upon Congress. No attention was paid to it by Con gress, and it seems that commerce is now paying no attention to them An Investigation of the subject shows that the thirteen countries which made formal protests against certain feat ures of the tariff law of 1897, in the two months in which the details of our exports can be obtained, have purchased $131,446.503 in value of our products and merchandise, against only $1O7,077,5S6 in the corresponding months of last year under the Wilson law
