The following from ~"Freedom," the
American paper at Manila, makes food
for thought for the ranting anti-eX-
pansionists:
"People Of America, is it not enough
that the flag is at the battle front?
Is it not enough that precious blood
feeds the insatiate sands? Is it not
enough that the bugle sounds the adj
n and the line in blue and brown
rushes to the shock of war?
"In Gods name, let us rally round
the flag and plant it victorious on
every serried peak of Luzon; shame
on him who cries halt; shame on him
who would trail the starry banner in
the dust.
''The war in Luzon must go on it
was brought on by the o~verbearing
natives, and there is only one course
ereignty of the United States must be
acknowledged in the archipelago be-
fore the next step can be taken. Any
other cours would be folly.
"Opposition to war IN from ig-
norance and party feeling.
"Why not cease this chatter about
the independence of the Filipino until
the Philippine commission has re-
ported? Why not pause to look at
the mutilated bodies Of our soldiers?
Deeds of treachery, savagery and bar
barism occur daily; in the insurgent
ranks assassination stalks at monday.
"People Of America, if you have a
flag, honor it; if you have a govern
ment, support it; if you have an ad-
ministration, strengthen it: if you
have troops at the front, uphold them;
and if you have traitors, damn them
eternally."

A few minutes later Mrs. Brunt was
standing in front of the mirror. and
with pair of scissors she was cutting
her hair until il resembled the closely

On the cab stand stood a solitary

the Black Lion public house opposite
Stealing the Diamonds.
Drawing from his pocket a cabman's
badge Preston fixed it on the lapel of
his coat, and. mounting the box of the
cab, he drove it around into Hatton
garden, pulling up within three doors

graph boy followed.
Brunt went into the office and asked
one of the lady clerks for shilling's
worth of stamps. While he was doing
this the telegraph boy walked right
through, down a few stairs into the
basement and in a second she turned
the gas off and put the key in her
pocket.

| The San Francisco Examiner says
that the Incorporation of the Central
Pacific Railway company at Salt Lake
last Monday, as the successor to the
| Central Pacific Railway company of
California, is legal move to perfect
the financial reorganization of the Cen
| trail, and to consolidate its property
with that of the Southern Pacific. The
papers of Incorporation were prepared
by Attorney Steele of New York, rep
resenting the Speyer Banking company
and w. F. Herrin, on behalf of c. P.
Huntington.
The Speyers were not satisfied that
the laws of California would enable the
reorganization and consolidation
scheme to be perfected. Prominent
lawyers, in both San Francisco and
New York, differed as to whether the
laws of California sanction an issue Of
preferred stock. This is an important
question, because the Central is to is
sue s20,O00000 of preferred stock, which
is to go to the Southern Pacific 1t is
also proposed to issue s125, ZOO. 900 of new
bonds on the Central's property. The
legal aspect of such a step under Cali
fornia laws was also in doubt. Like
wise the question of a consolidation of
the Central with the Southern Pacific,
apart from any stock or bond issue.
Utah was selected as the place for
incorporating the new company for two
reasons, it is said. One was that it's
laws were satisfactory for the reorgan-
ization and consolidation purposes of
the SpeyerS and Mr.. Huntington. a
new company being necessary to sue
coed the old Central Pacific. it had to
be Incorporated in some other state be-
cause of unfavorable character of the
California laws. Huntington did not
want to go to a state beyond the lin
its of the Central or Southern Pacific
lines, so when the Speyers said Utah
satisfied them. he had no objection, be-
cause the Central Pacific has part of
its line there.
The new company will assume all the
debts of the Central Pacific and issue
S125, 1000 of its own bonds to liqui-
date the former. 1t will also perfect
consolidation with the Southern Pa
cific. The officials of the latter insist
that by Incorporating In Utah, the
state of California has no right to con-
troll Central Pacific rates and fares in
the state, tax its property, etc, as it
has done in the past.
The new company's charter gives it
the right to make extensions in Utah.
While they are very reticent about ex-
tensions in Utah. the Southern Pacific
officials assert that none are contem-
plated in the near future. The impress
sion prevails that none will be made
unless to fight the Union Pacific. should
the latter build into southern Califor-
MIA and cripple the Central Pacific.

WILL MIDLAND CUT RATEsp
Rumors of Fierce Rate War Be-
tween Denver and Grand Junction.

The Denver Post states that the Col
orado Midland is on the eve of opening
wide the eyes of the railway world.
Whether it will be a reduction of time
between Denver and Glenwood Springs.
or the slashing of rates, can only be
conjectured. 1t will be advertised sud-
denly, with the idea of stealing some
of the thunder of the Rio Grande and
Colorado & Southern.
Matters are shaping themselves rap
idly. The changes on the Rio Grande
were made so suddenly that the Mid
land was taken by surprise. On its
Denver and Colorado Springs service
1t did not enter so actively into COM
petition with the Rio Grande as in the
business between Denver. Colorado
Springs and Grand Junction, where
Doth roads practically end, connecting
with the Rio Grande Western. 1t now
realizes that it is in competition with a.
service boasting seven trains daily and
railroad that will stand no fooling in
the cutting of rates. The Union Pa
CHIC has given warning that if the rate
is cut it will cut off the Midland's pro-
portion of a through ticket between
Denver and the Pacific coast. and will
undersell the Colorado road at every
point The matter resolves itself into
this, said a Rio Grande official. the
Rio Grande can afford to cut rates. and
the Midland cannot. If it does cut it
Will be for very short period. Nv
idea is that the Midland will probably
increase its service"

NEW SHEATH FOR THE KNIFE.
Plan to Prevent Decentralization Due
to Rate Cutting.

Chicago, Aug. 3.-Western Passenger
managers are agitating a concentra-
ton scheme which they say will an
nually result in a saving TO the west
ern railroads of more than S25O.OOO in
operating expenses and large amount
of money and trouble by preventing
the decentralization of rates. This
scheme calls for the establishment of
common bureau, through which all
interline business is to be conducted
similar to the immigration bureau,
which has proved to be one of the
most valuable departments of the
Western Passenger association system.
The idea is to have competent pas
senger man placed at the head of such
a bureau, through whom all foreign
business of connecting lines in the ter
ritory of the Western Passenger asso
citation should be conducted. 1t is be-
lieved that the scheme could be worked

SENATOR JONES WILL RESIGN.
But Not Until the National Demo-

New York, Aug. IA special to the
Tribune from Washington says: Senator
Jones of Arkansas wished to return home
from Europe as early at Sept. 10. but his
physician laid on him the injunction not
to leave there before Oct. l. The senator
writes to a friend in this city that he feels
as well as at any time in twenty years.
ard has not he slightest premonition of
another attack of the heart disease, from
which he suffered.
1t is learned from a friend of the sena-
tor that he is not ambitious TO hold the
Craftsmanship of the executive committee
of his party. but that ii was not deemed
wise to resign at this time and invite a
scramble for the place. Hence, without
quoting Senator Jones himself he says
the senator will resign the leadership of
the Democratic committee by the time the
national convention meets, so as to give
an opportunity for the choice OF another
chairman.
