of the conference and nsk OF him per-
mission to use his name as n candidate
for governor. The conference adopted
a lengthy platform of principles in the
form of an address to the Republican
voters of the state. 1t declares the
condition OF politics in the state to be
dlsgrn ceful. and that this condition has
been brought about by the expenditure
of money to corrupt and debauch he
voters.
"The present senior United States

The countess had been accused by

and detained there nearly year under

floor Of a pantry. insufficient clothing
and the various kinds of hard drudgery
which she was required to perform.

American roads. either in Montreal or
New York. To this, a reply was re-
ceived after the adjournment OF the
meeting to the effect that II would not
be convenient for the Canadian Pacific
to meet the committee of the Western
roads. After the adjournment OF the
meeting today, representatives OF the
Western roads said that they felt that
they had done all that lay In their pow
er to come to an understanding with
the Canadian Pacific, but II that road
would not consent to meet and discuss
matters with them, there was nothing
to do but sever all traffic relations with
It. They said that they were not think
ing of doing this in belligerent spirit.
but simply to protect themselves. The
meeting tomorrow Will take up the
matter and decide what Is best to be
done. AS matters now stand there
seems to be very little chance OF avoid
ing a war in Alaska rates, and If this
is once begun there Is every probability
that II VIII spread to the other trans

Chicago, Feb. 2.--The committees APP
pointed to consider the question of re-
duced rates for the North American
Turner's convention, to be held at San
Francisco July 9th, the tenth triennial
council of Congregational churches 10
be held at Portland. Or, July 7th-13th.
and the national convention of the w.
C. T. u. at Los Angeles in November,
have recommended that while it Is the
general desire to be in a position to
make suitable excursion rates for these
occasions, consideration thereof be
postponed pending action on the anti
scalping bill now before Congress, the
passage of which should make 1t posi-
BILE to simplify ticketing arrangements.
and permit of the granting of other
concessions in the way OF dates of sale,
limits stopovers, etc, which under ex-
listing conditions are impracticable.
The officials of the Wisconsin Central
deny that that road has made any ar
rangement with the Canadian Pacific
regarding the. Interchange of passenger
traffic at st. Paul. They declare that
the deal has never been contemplated,
and that II has been put in circulation
by competitors of the road with the
hope of destroying the cordial relations
existing between the Wisconsin Central
and the Great Northern ard the North
orn Pacific.

Detroit, Mich, Feb. 2.-Governor Pin
gree took steps today toward bringing
n suit to compel the Michigan Central
TO carry all passengers at two cents
per mile. He demanded a ticket to
Ypsilanti at the legal two cent rate
and then paid paid the three cent fare
under protest. The suit already pend
ing to compel the Michigan Central to
sell one thousand mile tickets for 500
is not broad enough for the governor
as the winning of 1t would benefit only
those who have $50 to pay for mile
age book. The second suit, he asserts
will be for the benefit of the plain peo-
pie, who pay for just the ride they get.
The Michigan Central claims to be eX-
empt under its special charter from
obligations to carry passengers ut 4
lower rate. The governor. contends that
the companys charter was amended by
u general railroad law passed in 1891.

strong enough to endure the food and
fell in the streets as they passed away;
Il few others, more fortunate, seemed
to gain some vitality. The painful scene
is daily witnessed wherever food is dis
