CANADIAN PACIFIC.
Rate Matter Now On Before the In
terstate Commission

Chicago. Aug. 3-Traffic Manager Nc
Nicoll of the Canadian Paclhc railway
concluded his direct statement before the
Interstate commerce commission today IN
relation 20 the rate war between the "a
madam Pacific railway and the AnleiF,.'ii
lines. McNicoll, in his closing reIldi hS
told of his efforts TO restore peace Win
the American companies ana now ms e.
forts were thwarted by their refusal TO
discuss the question of differenuais. lie
insisted that the American lines had re,
fused to accept suggestions ana hau Sdiu
that the Canadian PaclIc must agree "
all their terms.
Mr.. Eustis general passenger agent or
the Chicago. Burlington x quincy, ne
said had told them that there would pc
legislation against the Canadian racine
and that congress would have leglslated
last session of the subject had not been
overshadowed by the Cuban crisis. MI
McNicoll said that he did not take much
notice of these remarks as Mr.. Eustls
did not represent the American people
He denied that the interstate traffic en-
joyed by the Canadian Paclnc amounted
to $50 600 600 as has been stated. w nile
there were no statistics 1or pa SSenSer l al
fic the freight traffic amounted only 10
81 300 900 a year. On the other hand the
Canadian Pacific bought supplies from the
United States to the amount of S3,OOO.OOO
yearly.
The feature of the afternoon session was
Great Northern railroad who presented
the political and economic side OF the con-
troVersy to the committee.
In beginning his address he said 1t would
be the duty of the commission to make
recommendations 10 congress IN order ina
LEGISLATION with regard to railways could
be altered. The Canadian Pacific railroad
has tapped all important traffic centers in
the United States and its polcy is TO maui
freight from one American pee. tS an
other at rates which the American lines
refuse to accept. He contended that the
exceptional circumstances of the case
called for exceptional legislation The sta
tistics of the customs department show
that the freight traffic diverted TO the
Canadian Pacific amounts to nearly or
quite 100000 tons every year and rep
resents a loss of earnings to the American
roads of not less than S20,0OO0Oo to So
600 GOO every u months. Every time the
foreign road diverts from the American
lines q, 0Oc 900 tons of traffic. Mr.. Clough
contends it takes s14,O0cG)0 directly = ut of
the pockets of the American workman.
The hearing will be resumed tomorrow

VALOR OF A SPANISH EDITOR
NO PEACE TREATY CAN STOP
THIS WARRIOR.
Declares Spain Will Not Lose Cuba
and Calls Upon the People to Keep
Up the Fight.

Havana, Aug. 3.-The Union Consti-
that the Spanish temperament, addi-
tiCnally excited by the tropical heat,
scars in moment to the highest pitch
of enthusiasm, or sinks to the most ex-
sggerated point of depression. In eX-
PLANTATION, the paper remarks that the
shout of every one help himself will de-
mCralize the army here as much as the
cry that everything is lost.
Continuing. the Union Constitutional
advises the people not to give way be-
fore the alarming statements of peSSi-
mists, and says: IF the United States
sincerely wishes this country to be
prosperous and to enjoy peace. it will
find in SPANS sovereignty the most
satisfactory means to bring such a
state of affairs about
I'VE are convinced as to the impossi-
bility of discovering the stable quality
among the seDaratists- We have not
yet surrendered, and still have sufficient
to keep up the struggle. However. if
the peace rumors are confirmed, Spain
is still in a condition 20 make an hon.
orable treaty of peace.
I'VE repeat once more that Spanish
sovereignty over this island will not be
lost. and that the Spanish flag will con-
tlnue 10 wave over TINS land, o:ScoV-
cred and civilized by our Spanish an
cestorS. At the last moment the army
and the people will do their sacred and
patriotic duty"
In a second editorial the Union Con-
stituciOnal calls upon the people TO re-
sist to the utmost, saying that even if
Spain is routed here it will be 'only an
accident. a detail and q misfortune
The paper then says:
Even if Spain is smashed here on
the island of Cuba and its inhabitants
are deserted, owing to the treason of
some of the Cubans and the immense
power of the great republic, which
wants to appear humane, but which is
a hundred times more inhuman and
cruel than it is extensive in territory.
| they will never be able to reduce Spain
to impotence or appear less barbarous
among nations"

NICARAGUA CANAL.
Company Willing to Sell Out For
Eleven Millions.

Chicago, Aug. 3.-Lyman E. Cooley,
the well known civil engineer, after a
visit east and a conference in New
York with representatives of the Mar
thine Canal company, owners of all the
rights and concessions along the pro-
posed route of the Nicaragua canal, be-
lieveS the government of the United
States will construct the great water
way in preference to letting the con-
tract to separate companies or corpo-
rations. Mr.. Cooley says that on this
point the complexion of the Nicaragua
canal matter has been changed per-
ceptibly since last winter when he,
with a party of engineers, looked over
the ground of the enterprise.
The expense incurred by the govern
ment in war and the rapidly develop
ing indications that the Nicaraguan
canal can not only be constructed more
cheaply than at first imagined, but
ought to be built by Uncle Sam him
self, are cOnspiring. he intimated, to
assure the waterway connection be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific within
a few years.
President Mckinley" said Mr.
Cooley, and many of the leading MEM
bers of congress now appreciate more
than ever before the supreme impor-
lance of the canal to our country Sen
ator Morgan said to me not Ions ago
that the annexation of Hawaii practi-
cally clears up the question of imme-
date necessity of the Nicaraguan ca
nal. 1t is question, however, whether
or not congress will be able to pass the
proposed laws or take the proper action
at the short session in the fall TO enable
the work to be begun at an early date.
1.-THE construction of the waterway
will not be a tremendous undertaking.
though it may take seven years to COM
plete it. The Maritime Canal company
asks for 81, 800 900 from the government
to relinquish all of its rights and con-
cessions.
The company. it is understood, will
take $7,000.000 in the stock of a new
company that the government might
form, and $4,000, 900 from the govern
ment to validate it's bonds The COM
pany bought out all the concessions of
the old Nicaragua association. which is
said to have expended something like
$4,000, 900. The Maritime Canal company
was then organized, and it has spent
81 1000, 600 in Nicaragua on the canal un-
dertaking, but had to quit work The
company is perfectly right when it says
that no private corporation could be
expected to take up the canal project
now, since congress has put its hand in
the matter, and when there is a strong
likelihood of the government building
the ditch itself"

All About Stamps.

Topeka, Kan. Aug. 3.-The Santa Fe
Railroad company began suit in the
federal court here today to compel the
Western Union Telegraph company to
pay the revenue stamp tax on tele
grains filed by the railroad company.
The proceeding is in the form of an in
junction to prevent the telegraph COM
pany from refusing to accept for
transmission messages without the
revenue stamps attached The COM
plant alleges that the telegraph COM
pany violates its contract with the
Santa Fe company when it refuses to
accept unstamped messages for trans
mission. The contract in question gives
the railroad company reduced rates
and free transmission under certain
conditions.

SWALLOWED A HATPIN.
Doctors Said the Child Would Die,
But It Survived

Chicago, Aug. 3.-Little Francis Nell
son, IL years old, daughter of o. Nell
son, a merchant of Schlessingerville,
Wis, while playing with a hatpin six
and half inches long, few days ago,
in some manner managed TO swallow it.
The child was brought to this city,
where prominent physicians gave it as
their opinion that ii was impossible for
such a small child to swallow a hatpin
and live. But in order to satisfy the
parents, they suggested that the X-ray
be utilized. The child was taken to a
Roentgen laboratory, where a photo
graph GIFTS stomach was taken. There.
plainly enough, was to be seen the
missing article. The glass head was
downwards. and the action of the stom-
ach in its work of digestion had kept
