STEAMSHIP WAR.
Rates to Europe May Experience
Heavy Reductions.

New York, May 31.-The Tribune to-
day says: A reduction in passenger
rates to Europe this summer is expect
ed among the agents of the large Trans
atlantic lines at this port. The pool
ing arrangement which has prevailed
for a number of years among the large
lines has completely fallen through. The
agreement ends in June, and, while eff
forts have been made to continue it for
another year, they have failed entirely
and the conference which was to have
been held in London has been declared
off.
This association was called the North
Atlantic conference and included the
following lines:
The North German Lloyd, the Ham
burg-American lines, Cunard, White
Star, Anchor, American, Red Star and
RO1land-American lines. The agree
ment called for minimum first cabin
rate to English ports of 500 and to
German ports of sos.
Signs of the disa greement were many
early last winter, but nothing was done
to break the agreement. A meeting of
the officers of all the lines was held in
London early in May. From all ac-
counts it was not of the most harmo-
NOUS nature and it was finally adj
jOurned without reaching any direct re-
suit. 1t was then understood that an
other meeting was to be held in June
z, at which some definite plan was to be
formed to adjust the rates to suit all
lines. Last week it was decided to
give up the meeting and in the future
each line will go it's own way, making
its own rates. That this sagreement
means a rate war is generally under
stood among the local agents here.
They say that the war with Spain has
already reduced traffic and that the

get what business there is going.

CORRECTION.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
In your issue of this date. in your pub
lished account of the Democratic county
convention, occurs an error which 1 wish
to have corrected.
The sixth resolution, after declaring that
the prohibitory amendment should be re-
submitted, had added thereto, as passed
by the convention, these words: ''in spite
of Republican duplicity and straddlfng-'
AS published in the Journal the matter
stands thus: lin spite of Republican du-
plicity and straddling, for the existence OF
which the Democratic party is largely re-
sponsible,' thus making the convention.
and me as the author of the resolutions,
say that the Democratic party is largely
responsible for Republican duplieity and
straddling. This is a mistake. We said
such thing. The words for the exist
ence of which the Democratic party is
largely responsible were no part of the
sixth resolution, and had relation to
the alleged duplicity and straddling of the
Republican party, but belonged to and
were a part of the seventh resolution,
which had reference to the present state
administration. The resolution publish
enth resolution the words referred to, hut
inserted them by mistake in the sixth res
olution. The seventh resolution as pass
ed by the conven ton follows: The
present state administration, for the ex-
istence of which the Democratic party
is largely responsible, has justified the
hopes and defended the interests of the
people, and has earned the commentator
of right thinking citizens without regard

ALL WORK STOPS.
Omaha's Exposition Will Be
Opened Officially Tomorrow.

Omaha, May 31-The exposition
management has issued instructions
that all work on the grounds cease
with the close OF tonight. No exhibits
or decorations will be arranged tomor-
row. 1t is the desire of the manage
ment that all the energies of the en-
ployes be directed toward the success
of the opening. Some details of minor
Importance remain incomplete as far
as the grounds are concerned but this
feature is not of sufficient magnitude
to interfere in any way with the dedi-
catory ceremonies. For several nights,
five hundred men have been continu-
ously employed on the grounds prepar-
ing for the opening. The surroundings
have been rendered as light as day by
the numerous electric lights. These eX-
ira efforts have been largely instru-
mental in bringing the enterprise 10 al
most completion. Many delegations OF
various states have already arrived -
participate in the initial exercises to-
morrow.
Railroad agents predict that the at
tendance will exceed the hundred thou
sand mark, provided the weather re-
mains favorable. After the formal ded-
icaGon, the exposition executive officials
will banquet the guests of the EXPOSE
ton on the grounds. The spread will
be an informal affair.

HASKELL WINS.
Washburn's Baseball Team Given a
Thorough Drubbing.

Yesterday an average Topeka crowd wit
messed the game of base ball between the
Washburn and Haskell teams. 1t was a
successful game in every particular, from
the fanatics standpoint For seven in
nings the work of the Washburn team in
the field was excellent and each man in
his respective position played with a vim
that surprised most of the spectators. In
the outfield well the infield Wash
burn played particularly steady ball and
the men accepted their chances without
any costly errors. In the box Baxter dem
onstrated that he had improved since the
beginning of the season, but the Wash
burn team, if made into a composite ball
player, could not hit a furniture car go
B. milk train, and for that reason not a
run went to their credit until the sixth
inning. when Leroy, the pitcher for the
Indians, began to give out.
In the sixth and seventh innings Wash
burn managed to pull four runs out of the
fire through the weakness of Leroy and
in the eighth, when the old time Augusta
went into the box, all hope for WaShburn
to hit anything was gone. The game after
the seventh inning was ragged on both
sides. In the seventh inning Augusta,
who had been quiet got on his war paint
on account of decision of the umpire
and threatened to take his papooses home
and not play any more If the decision was
not changed. The matter was finally set
tied after rs pretty a wrangle as was ever
seen in the days of Jimmy Driscol. Fact
was, Topeka rooters would not have been
content If there had not been wrangle.
Robinson went into the box for Wash
burn in the ninth inning and if he had
things might have been entirely different
for Washburn. The batting of the In
played ball, and home run in the first
inning by Leroy and four two-base hits
and a score of base hits were to their
credit.

Capt Hodgson of the British Steam

New York, May 31.-The British
steamer Laughton, chartered by the

Goa. She fell in with the Spanish squadron
at the Dutch port.

Captain Hodgson. "At 10 a M, in
came Admiral Cervera's ships, which at
first anchored three miles from shore.
The harbor consists of a lagoon entered

morning the Spaniards arrived.
EARLY in the morning the Maracai-
bo's chief engineer reported to Captain
machinery he could not reverse his en-
gines. Capt Reith decided to stay in
port for repairs. When few hours la
ter he saw the SpaniardS coming in he
felt first rate, because he had been
saved by bit of bad luck from capture
by the enemy.
1.-The Maria Teresa and the Vizcaya
came in through the channel and anch-
ored in the lagoon. I dipped the Laugh
toms flag and it was nearly fifteen
minutes before the Vizcaya dipped hers
in response
1t appears that Captain Reith was
in a neutral port. Engineer Clark
says the stars and strips were hauled
down and not raised again on the
Maracaibo till just before the Spaniards
sailed the next evening.
Admiral Cervera came ashore in a
Hfeboat instead of his launch said Mr..
Clark. Il jumped into a boat and rowed
around the Vizcaya and the Maria Te-
resa. You could see some growth on
their hulls, but it was not so heavy as
you might think. The ViZcaya was in
pretty good shape after being SO long
at sea.
There was between three and four
feet of hull exposed below the load line,
showing that they did not have much
coal aboard.

gun on the Viccaya looked as if it were
broken. This was an optical Illusion,

seemed to be all right.

ST. LOUIS SAILS.
Threatened Strike on the Dock Patch
ed Up by u. S. Commissioner.

New York. May 31.-The auxiliary cruiser
St. Louis sailed from the American line
pier yesterday. Just the ship was
drawing out from the dock and about 100
feet from shore a messenger boy rushed
up to Officer o. Bierne of the harbor pO-
lice and handed him a sealed message to
be delivered to Captain Randle of the St.
Louis. 1t could not be learned what the
message contained or where it came from.
The strike which threatened to delay the
vessels sailing was peacefully adjusted
about a half hour before sailing. Deputy
United States Commissioner Martin J.
Harrigan addressed the strikers on the
pier, and his words seemed to have the
right effect. Out of the $50 strikers all
but Al returned to duty. The places of
the men who refused to return were at
once filled from the many who stood on
the pier anxious to serve. 1t was stated
unofficially that the St. Louis would pro-
coed at once to Key West and return to
this port again in ten days.
