HEAVY WESTERN BUSINESS.
Edward c. Schoen, district passenger
agent OF the Northern Pacific railroad,
was in the city yesterday visiting
friends. He says that, contrary TO. the
general belief, the business Of the great
western lines has not largely diminished
on account Of the reegation OF the
Klordike to back seat as conse-
querce OF the war. On the contrary, the
Northern Pacific will have one OF, the
best years since Its reorganization.
This Is caused by the very heavy tour
list business which has been attracted
by the remarkably low rates now ruiz
ing. The fare from st. Paul to Port
land (ore.) is now at SO net. rate that
is making all the business the road can
handle. The cut was caused by the pol
icy Of the Canadian Pacific.

He Fought With Dewey.

A woman by the name Of Mary
Clark Of San Francisco, who has
been before the courts there several
times on charges of vagrancy, escaped
punishment on Thursday last in one
of the police courts OF that great city
through letter. She had been ar
rested so often that the matter of talk
ing testimony in her case was merely
formal. Judge Low was about to in
tlct the maximum penalty of "six
months III Jail" when she said:
"Judge | have letter in my pocket
that | would like to have you read"
She handed him letter written by
her son, who is n sailor on the cruiser
Boston. He wrote from Hongkong
that III four months he wonld be dis
charged; that he had saved his wages
and was coming back to give her Il
good home.
Gle fought with Dewey at Ma.
nilla," she said, when the Judge fin.
lshed reading the letter. Judge Low
pondered for Il moment and then told
her TO go her way, saying:
"Your case is an unfortunate one,
but l cannot punIeh the mother OF
anyone who fought with Dewey, no
matter how aggravated may be the
case"
Mrs. Clark expressed her appre-
citation and promised to mend her
ways.

Judge Kershaw, who has since died. It

A Missionnry'. Account OF the DIM
culties Under which They
Are Conducted.

a missionary writing from China TO
a friend in this city recently described
the difficulties under which the newly
completed railroads are conducted in
that country, says the New York Sun.
Passengers in the first-class coaches,
he said, exhibited 50 strong a desire
10 carry off various articles from the
cars as souvenirs OF their trip that the
coaches were speedily stripped q those
things that contribute to the comfort
Of the passenger. They took away with
them hat and bundle racks, mirrors,
lamp brackets, hooks, small tables, and
even doors. They were considerate
enough to leave the car frame and
wheels. And the purIoiners were gov
eminent officials and people belonging
TO the wealthy classes.
The stations along the railroad over
which the writer travelled were rude
sheds, very unclean and without a
chair or bench. The cars, too, were
very dirty. While this was especially
true of the second-class coaches, which
were ofyenti1nes crowded with half
naked. unwaShed people. the first-cIass
coaches also became very uncIean in
Il short time. 1t soo;I became necessary
10 take out all the upholstery and re-
place it by plain seats.
When the railroads were being built
reports were spread that the foreign
contractors were stealing Chinese chill
Gren and burying them in the roadbed
so as to propitiate the god who rules
over railroads. These reports greatly
excited the people. and in one instance
mob attacked two missionaries near
Peking and would have killed them had
not detachment of soldiers rescued
them. Under guise of these reports
children were really kidnapped and taken
into the cities for immoral purposes.

The MORO Castles.

Readers of war news have probably
been puzzled to understand why so
many Morros are mentioned in the
dispatches. There is a MORO Castle
Mt the entrance of the harbor of Ha-
vana, another at the outer point of
San Juan Baptista, Puerto Rico; an
other Moro Castle at the mouth of
the harbor of Santiago de Cuba, md
so on. The word MORO" real "
means high point Of land or pro-
montory. Many harbors of the West
Indies are land-locked. with narrow
entrances and expanding waters in

Castle" which really means the castle

ABOUT VOLUNTEERS.

Soon after the United States de-
clared that state of war existed be-
tween this country and Spain, the
Pre- ident, in accordance with the Act
of Congress, issued call for $4,000
volunteers. The apporuonment of
each State was made on the basis of
population, and some States,
Nevada tLr instance, promptly fur
nished more than it's quota. Now a
second call has been issued by the
President for $4,000 men. and though
the apportionment 10 the States I'M
der this call has been made it has not
been given to the public.
Under the first call some States
were permitted to furnish a greater
number of volunteers than they were
entitled to on the basis of population
Under the second call it is proposed
by the War Department to remedy
the inequality as far as practicable,
therefore, States when fl rnished
more than their quota under the first
call will be credited with the excess
in the second call.
The President desires that the regi-
ments organized in the States under
the first call and which have not yet
been completed. shall be recruited
up to their full strength before the
organization Of new regiments is at
tempted under the second call. If
this policy is carried into effect by
the War Department the volunteer
regiments which comprise only five
or six hundred men will have to be
filed from the States in which those
regiments were organized or by vol
unteers from other States before the
organization Of new regiments will
be authorized under the second call.
Some OF the Infantry regiments have
less than 600 men. though they are
composed OF dozen companies and
have as many commissioned officers as
d full regiment Of twice that nun Der
States, therefore, which furnish
five or six regiments OF $50 or COO
men each, will have as many COM
missioned officers rs other States
whose regiments are filled TO the
maximum Of 1900 men each. This
is unfair and to prevent it regiments
under the first call have to he filed
to the maximum strength before new
res iments from tue same State are
mustered into the service. journal
