ANOTHER FREIGHT BUREAU
Organized for the Protection of the
Shippers of Chicago.

A new organization, to be known as
the Board of Trade Freight bureau, has
been formed In Chicago. 1t will have
for It's object the maintenance of
freight rates and the protection of Chi
cago shippers. The association has Sc
cured the services Of John j. Hyland
as it's commissioner or traffic manager
Mr.. Hyland has recently been with the
Ontario Dispatch, and is railroad
man of wide experience.
The new board will endeavor to de-
vote itself exclusively to the grain
traffic, which has of late been greatly
jeopardized. The association will be
strictly board of trade concern, and
it is believed that for this reason great
results will be attained.
Other like associations have been
failures, but it is thought that the con-
ditions surrounding the new organiza-
ton will bring success.

FIVE THOUSAND SHOTS.
VEsUVIUS TESTED.
Three Dynamite Shells Dropped
Into Santiago de- Cuba.

NEW YORK, June 16.-A Mole ST.
Nicholas special says: The dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius has given proof of her
destructive ability. Monday night Capt
Pillsbury, under darkness, ran the We
suvius within three-quarters of a mile
of the western headland at the en-
trance to Santiago. He dropped three
shells, each containing 200 pounds of
gun cotton. There was no noise, no
smoke. no flash, from the guns, but
the effect was terrific. The land shook,
waves were raised as by an earth
quake and tons of rock were hurled in
the air.
Not a shot from the Notifications
answered until the Vesuvius, having
satisfactorily completed the test, had
retired two miles.

portion of the Fourth corps remaining
at Mobile which is regarded as a sub
station of the Tampa camp. At jack
sonville, it is estimated by the adJu-
tant general that there are about 5000
men. This would make the entire
