Popular Opinion Alone Prevents a
Demonstration I'm War Times.
LONDON, July 26.-The Madrid cor
respondent Of the Times, noting the
great increase in Carlist activity, says:
'All the leading members Of the par
ty have left Madrid. Senor Mella, the
deputy who caused an uproar at one
of the closing sittingS Of the chamber
by a Biblical quotation about female
rulers, is going abroad. On the other
hand, some influential Carlists repud!-
ate any illegal action, and the best au-
thorities in the monarehial party are
also of the opinion that there is no
danger of a rising at present. since
few Spaniards are willing to increase
the national calamities by plunging
the country into the horrors of civil
war.
"Senor Sagasta has promised to di-
minish so far as possible, the incon-
veriences Of press censorship. The min
istry still declines information as to
the peace question, and some time may
elapse yet before anything definite is
made known. Whatever the results, the
public is beginning to realize that the
government is less inactive than was
generally supposed, and has greatly Inv
creased it's moral position by bringing
the country to accept the situation and
see the necessity for peace"

TRANSFER OFF LIVE STOCK.
Great Western willing to Improve
South st. Paul Facilities.

A meeting was called at the Com
mercial club yesterday Of railroad men
interested in the proposition of the Chi
cago Great Western to facilitate the
transfer of live stock from the east
to the west side Of the Mississippi
river, but, owing to the slim attend
aEce, no action was taken. Gen. Flow
er, representing the South St. Paul
stock yards; General Manager Scott, of
the Omaha, and F. 3. Underwood, Of
the 500, were the only ones who ap-
peared, and, as they could not accom-
plish anything, they adjourned, subject
to the call of Gen. Flower.
The Chicago Great Western proposes
to build a side track in South ST. Paul
at the end Of the railroad bridge. where
all cars containing live stock for these
stock yards may be switched daily and
taken together to the yards. The COM
pany also offers to maintain an engine
there to do the necessary switching
without expense to the other roads.
The proposition is for some reason not
viewed with favor by the other lines,
though they are agreed that better ar
rangenlents for switching live stock
are needed.
The question of the purchase of the
New Brighton stock yards is believed
to have something to do with the hes
itancy of the other roads to accept the
offer of the Chicago Great Western.
1t is thought that the company, which
is opposed to that purchase, has self
ish motive in offering better facilities
for taking care of stock than now ex-
ist, and the others do not want to act
in the premises, unless they are certain
there is nothing concealed behind the
curtain.

TAX ON EXPRESS BUSINESS.
Great Northern Was Between Two

Great Northern Was Between Two
Fires in the Case.
The acton Of the Great Northern Ex-
press company in following the lead of
the Northern Pacific in the matter Of
revenue stamps, assuming the burden
instead Of putting it on shippers, went
into effect yesterday. 1t would have
been done in the beginning but for the
stubborn opposition Of the eastern as
ISOLATION express companies, which in
sisted that the Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern should stand by them
and fight against the tax.
The Great Northern and the North
ern Pacific Express companies are
rivals in the Northwest, and the action
Of the Northern Pacific left the Great
Northern in dilemma. 1t wanted to
stand by it's agreement with the East
ern companies, but at the same time
it saw it's best friends and customers
desert 1T for the Northern Pacific, which
quickly increased it's business at the
expense of the Great Northern.
In Minneapolis the jobbers held
meeting and resolved not to patronize
any other company than the Northern
Pacific, and in other places the bad
effects upon it's business was felt by
the Great oIthern. The Great North
ern watched the exodus Of it's customers
until it. could no longer bear it, and
then sent an ultinatum to the Eastern
companies demanding to be released
from it's compact with them. TIE East
ern companies refused to release it from
it's obligation, nor would they make any
concessions. The Great Northern then
determined to take matters in it's own
hands, and on Sunday the directors met
and decided to pay for the. stamps. The
tax ON the company will amount to
fully $4,000 year.
The Eastern companies yesterday
notified Vice-President Feetner, of the
Great Northern, that notwithstanding
that company's action they would not
yield to the popular demand until the
United States supreme court declares
they must. Until then they Will oblige
shippers to pay the. tax.
The effect of this action Is said to
be bad for all the express companies.
The railroads have accepted the rev.
enue law as it is popularity interpreted,
and a great deal of business that was
formerly sert by express IS being ship
pad by freight. This IS a longer method
of sending goods, but merchants are.
ordering a few days ahead and are thus
saving the cost of stamps. The stamp
is small thing in itself, but for a large
house they amount to large sum in
the course Of a month.

The Steamship Adria Reports E.v-
ing Severed the Last Cable.

ing Severed the Last Cable,
KEY WEST. Fla, July 25-The cable
steamship Adria has arrived today
from Santiago. She left this port on
May 20 on a cabble-cutting expedition,
having on board Lieut.. Col. Allen, of
the United States signal corps; Capt.
NJ. L. Hellingls, Lieuts. jones and Shep-
ard, and E. H. Strickland.
On June 1 she was at Santiago, and
on June 5 began her work of cutting
the Spaniards eff from communication
with the rest of the world According
to the story told by those who re-
manned on the Adria, the West India
6s Panama company's lines, from San
tlago to Kingston, We're attacked first
and one cable was cut. The day after
the marines landed in Guantanamo the
Adria went there to e-establiLsh COM
munication with Mole ST. Nirholas. A
few days later the Adria had spliced
the cable where the st. Louis had cut
it, and Guantanamo was in direct COM
munication with Mole. ST. Nicholas.
Her next task was to cut the line
near Aguadores and transfer it to Sibo-
ney, making a connection with the field
line to Shafter's headquarters within a
day or so after his army had landed
The French company objected to this
proceeding and notified our government
that it would not be allowed to use the
lines after July 9, so the Adria laid
the cable from Guantanamo to Bal
quiri, and land line thence to Sibo-
ney. Experts who were on the Adria
are positive that Havana is now cut

CHICAGO, July 25.-Samuel Dunno,
a cattle dealer from Miles City, Mont.
came into the Harrison street police
station today and asked to be sent
home, as he was without money to buy
his ticket. Dunno first came to Chi
cago July Is, and was robbed of four
packages Of bills, each containing $500
He told the police he was on his way
to the Polk street station preparatory
to making trip to Canada, when a
woman called him into doorway and
robbed him of the packages. Immedi-
ately after reporting the loss of the
$1,000 Dunno went out again and lost
Sl4l in the same manner. The next day
he, did not appear at the police sta
tlon and was not seen by the officers
until today. He went to Canada from
Chicago, and there lost his trunk, and
has not been able to recover it, When
he came back to Chicago last night
on his way home to Montana he had
$S5, and in an unexplained manner he
parted company with that today The

AN UNHAPPY QUEEN.
She Opposed War, and Is Now
Pleading for Peace.

PARIS, July "a special dispatch
count Of the queen regents daily life
during the present crisis:
Poor queen! This is the exclama-
ticn so often heard of late, day after
day, as matters grow worse and worse,
as the Spanish disasters repeat them
selves and as the throne of the little
king seems slipping from her hands,
into which it was given in trust.
see her majesty locking carewcrn and
anxious. Even her drives are becom-
ing fewer and fewer. 1t would surely
appeal to any mother in the world
We're she to see the way this queen
mother each day seems to cling closer
and closer to her boy, as though to
shield him from the dangers closing
about him with almost fatal force. 1t
is very touching to witness it. Her
worst enemies recognize in the queen
personal qualities worthy Of the high
est admiration.
THE queen used every means at her
disposal 10 prevent war. Her great hope
lay in Senor Moret (Seaor Moret y
Prende. gast, TIE former minister of col
onies). and he would have carried his
point but for Senior Gullon, the former
minister for foreign affairs. Today,
and ever since the war began, the great
occupation of the queen is to find the
quickest way for it's termination At
many councils of late held at the pal
ace the queen has burst into tears, beg
ging ard urging her ministers to seek
to formulate terms of peace, which
they seem incapable of doing; a la
peace, which the queen with common
sense sees to be of such vital import
ance, ard which her ministers keep
pcstponing with the word so fatal to
SpaiI-manana fomorrow).
''The queen has taken every chance
offered in the council of putting in a
word for peace, and, little by little, she
has finally managed to bring the cab
inet to her view and to thoughts of
peace"
