KLoNDIKE RATE WAR
10 Be Confined for the Present to
the st. Paul Gateway by
Western Roads

CHICAGO, Feb. 24-The passenger
agents of the Western roads held a
meeting here today 10 consider the ac-
ton to be taken in the conduct of the
transcontinental rate war. 1t was de-
cfded that for the present at least the
cut rates should be strictly confined to
the st. Paul gateway
committee of seven was appointed
to prepare a plan for the conduct of the
war, to report to another meeting to be
held tomorrow.
Notice was served by the Southern
Pacific today on all its connections
that 1t will not participate in the pas
senger war inaugurated by the Cana
dian Pacific road III transcontinental
business, but will insist on full pro-
portion on all business ticketed over its
lines. The Southern Pacific has all the
klondike business, originating in Cali
fornia, it can very we'll handle over
its Alaska route. On this 1t is receiv-
ing full fares, and 1t thinks it would
be very foolish to place them IN jeop-
ardy by taking part in a fight in which
1t is very remotely interested.
The effect of its decision Will be to
bar still further the Missouri river
gateway against cut rates. Roads US
ing those gateways have been exceed
ingly anxious, from the outset of the
fight, to protect these tgateways, and Il
appears that they would not be able
to use them in come with the cut
rates even if they would.

DISCOVERIES OF DIVERS.
Developing That the Maine Was Not
Wrecked by Accident

WASHINGTON, Feb 24-The Evening Star
has received the following cablegram from
Charles NJ. Pepper, it's staff correspondent in
Cuba:
AT this writing divers are developing i'm
portant results. From examination of inter-
ior wreckage they have secured evidence
which seems conclusive that the explosion
came from underneath the ship. Some Of the
smaller magazines may have exploded The
main ten-inch magazine did not explode
The condition of the interior of the ship
shows further probability of the wreck hav-
ing been due to outside force. The further
the Investigation progresses the more un-
tenable becomes the theory which the Spanish
government adduced to show accidental cause
1t is evident that the Spanish case Will be

explosion. Capt. Sampson and his colleagues

Secret Well Kept.
Neither the officers of the court of In
curry nor the witnesses will give the
slightest indication of the testimony or
the conclusions deducible from it, and
all say that the men employed on the
wreck have been warned to observe an
equally strict reticence This course is
regarded as eminently wise by the
American and all intelligent Spanish
officials, as there is no telling what pas
slons might be aroused or what evil re-
suits might be brought about by talk
ing freely on official matters IN the
present state of public feeling in Ha-
Vana. Thus far Americans are treated
with the utmost courtesy and kindness
and it seems the special care of the
residents OF Havana to show friendIi-
ness.
Consul General Lee says there is no
truth in the report that he had asked
Capt. Gen. Blanco to dismiss from Gu
ba certain newspaper men for sending
sensational stories TO the United States.
On the contrary, Gen. Lee has never in
terfered with the American newspaper
men in any way.
Today the principal streets and build

today returned on board the Mangrove
the visit of the court of inquiry, acting
as the representative of the captain
general. Admiral Manterola person
ally returned the visit paid to him by
the court.
The Thursday reception of Gen. Blan-
co was resumed this evening
Although it is probable the Man
grove will leave for Key West tomor-
row, Capt. Sampson is not yet certain.
All depends on whether the court fin
ishes the work possible here 1t is be-
lieved the court will return to Havana
after hearing the Key West witnesses,
but no official confirmation OF this re-
port can be obtained. With the de-
parture Of the court the center of in
terest probably will be at Key West.
The news given out by the court is
strictly confined to that already sent
by this correspondent, and is very
scanty at best.
No bodies were recovered today from
the wreck. Recent orders from Capt.
Sigsbee strictly forbid all officers of
the Maine to give out any information
except to those officially empowered to
ask 1t. The order is generally under
stood to apply to all official matters,

matters Connected with the disaster

PARIS, Feb. 24-The chamber of
deputies was thronged today and it
was decided TO request the premier, NJ.
Meline, to Immediately discuss the
interpretations Of NM Hubbard and
Gautier, relative to the conviction and
sentence of NJ. Zola yesterday.
NJ. Hubbard, Radical. asked whether
Generals Pellieux and Boisdeffre had
intervened at the trial by authorize
tion or order of the ministry for war,
Gen. Billot- The deputy spoke, amid
incessant Interruptions, on the danger
of religious war, and concluded by
inviting the government to end the
tUmUlt and riOting in the streets.
NJ. Meline replied: Popular, demo-
cratic justice has given q verdict after
a military court and you viii accept it.
Gen. Billot, the minister for war, gave
no order to generals summoned to tes-
tify before the tribunal. One general
had been accused on account of his
utterances. Undoubtedly he spoke a
word too much, but you must remem-
Der the frightful charge thrown in his
face
IF, after yesterdays verdict, the agi-
tation continues, we shall know that
the matter has been made a party

If Its Leaders Are Not for the Gold
Standard 1t Is Nowhere.

CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 24.-Robert S.
Taylor, of the monetary commission, spoke
tonight at the chamber OF commerce He
urged that the plan OF the commission was
first to form at once the foundation of a
permanent financial system, and should be
adopted as whole, or In part at first and
by progressive steps to completion. He said :
Unless the Republican party is for the
gold standard it is nowhere. 1t cannot es-
cape the issue; it ought to run to meet it.
No one can speak for II by authority except
its representatives at Washington. The
president has done his part; let the senator's
and representatives do theirs. They can do
1t by passing a bill in the house and max
ing an effort to pass it IN the senate. which
shall be a foil for the Teller resolution:
which shall declare in terms that the United
States by law and good conscience is bound
to the maintenance of the gold standard and
will maintain 1t in the payment OF all Obli-
cations. In that way and no ether can the
issue for the elections of 1888 be clearly de-
fined. There is nothing to be gained by OBJ
scuring that Issue; much to be gained by
simplifying and emphasizing It,"

LONDON, Feb. A.-The parliamentary sec
retary for the foreign office, Mr. Curzon
replying to a question IN the house of com
mons today, said Russia's pledge respecting
free ports IN North China was conveyed in
the following note:
Count Muavieff the Russian minister for
foreign affairs) has expressed great surprise
at the agitation the subject Of recent
events IN China; where English and Russian
interests could not be seriously antagonistic.
1t was perfectly natural Russia should wish
for an outlet for her commerce on the coast
q the North Pacific. Any such port will be
open for the commerce of the world
In reply to a question as to the West Afri-
can situation, Mr. Chamberlain said he ex-
pected q friendly and satisfactory settlement
but under the agreement with France he
could not give details until the negotiations
IN Paris were ended.
Mr. Chamberlain said: at is a lamentable
fact that we allowed ourselves to be fore
stalled In Sierra Leone and Gambia and the
government was determined that the same
fate should not attend the Niger and the Gold
Coast. Consequently it decided to raise q
frontier force under Capt. Lugard TO occupy
the Hinterland OF those territories. -

ton. D. c.:
II do not propose to do anything at all
to precipitate war with Spain. Up to the
present do not think war is either neces-
sary or inevitable. l would be lax IN nv
duty however, il l did not prepare for the
future. The situation is grave, and the pol
Icy OF the administration will be determined
almost entirely by the course of events from
time TO time. There is no necessity OF
alarming the people. but congress must be
ready to assist the administration without
making too many inquiries as to the course
OF current events"
To senator who called upon him yes

tons as to the policy Of the administration,
President Mckinley, with the utmost frank
ness, uttered the above words There is now
no doubt OF the fact that the government of
the United States is actually preparing for
war with Spain. 1t does not follow that
war will come, but the activity in both the

able to be concealed.

"Ahes ahu IOrpedOes That
Would blow Hostile ships Out of

WASHINGTON, Feb 24-Thanks TO
the promptness and efficiency of the
chief of engineers OF the army. the
city of Washington is now regarded as
being we'll nigh safe and secure from
attack by water. The Notifications at

are sufficiently advanced to be able to
repel an ordinary fleet of invaders and
In case of necessity they could be vast
ly strengthened in a comparatively
short time. These defenses are con-
sidered sufficient to keep all hostile
vessels beyond the range of gunshot of
the national capital
Moreover the river has been blocked
off and prepared for mines and tor
pedoes at a point below the fortifica-
tions already mentioned, so that ii is
probable some of the ships of an enc
my would be blown out of the water
before it would be necessary to use the
guns at the forts.
The navy department today gave out
the figures showing the strength OF the
naval militia up TO date. This shows
total force of 4,445 officers and en-
listed men, which is a gratifying in
crease from the 3,703 shown by the last
report. In addition, new brigades are
in process of formation which promise
to swell the total to much larger fig
ures ct an early day.
In the event of a sudden emergency
the naval militia could be utilized at
once for manning the smaller national
cruisers. 1t could be depended upon
also as a second line of defense and
also be used in placing mines and the
establishment of signal stations for
coast defense.
