Denies Allegations of the State
Comm issiOn,

Denies Allegations of the State
Commission.
In district court yesterday an answer
was filed to the suit recently brought by
the state railway and warehouse commits,
sion to annul the sale of the ST. Paul &
Duluth railway, and the appointment of
a receiver or receivers for the company,
on the ground that the sale was illegal
as a violation of the law against the own
ership of competing lines by the same
corporation.
III the answer each allegation made by
the state commission was denied by the
defendant company, it being alleged that
the st. Paul q Duluth railway is not a
competitor of the Northern Pacific rail-
way between st. Paul and Minneapolis
and Duluth and West Superior It was
also denied that the lines are parallel.
In summing up denial is made that COM
petition between terminals of the Ncrth-
eru Pacific railroad has been interfered
with through the sale of the St. Paul &
Duluth railroad, and that the Omaha,
Eastern Minnesota and st. Paul &c Du-
luth railroads are the natural and only
competitors for business between the
Twin Cities and the head Of the lakes.

THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA SUGAR MARKET BOOMING

LONDON. July 1.-General Botha is
showing increased activity. His patrols
cover wide stretches of country. APP
proach near the British outposts and
engage in skirmishes while larger bod
les threaten to attack, declining to al
low themselves to be caught by the re-
turn blows which the British promptly
seek to deliver. Attacks of this sort
were made Friday last at Pinaarsport
Springs. Generals Botha and Dewet
are seemingly operating in combina-
ton. Botha is reported to have divid-
ed his forces into two parts, one NOV
ing west and the other to the south, to
try to effect junction with Dewet.
Boer circulars are out, eXaggerating
the Chinese troubles and urging the
burghers to rejoin the army.
Lord Roberts and several co-operat-
ing columns are still out within strik-
ing distance of Dewet.
DR.. Conan Doyle, in an interview
with the Daily Telegraph's Pretoria
correspondent, says the hospital ar
rangements have been severely tried,
but that no more could have been done.
Lord Roberts, in the course of an in
terview. said he thought that the char
ges brought against the Governments
by William A. Burdette-Coutts. Con-
sentative member of Parliament for
Westminster, that inadequate provision
had been made for the sick and wound
ed. were probably based upon one hos
pita1 and a hasty generalization there
on.
The Times Pretoria correspondent
telegraphs that General Colville has
been ordered home.
LONDON, July 9.-Lord Roberts tele-
graphs to the War Office from Preto-
ria as follows: THE officer command
ing at Hebron reports that State Sec
rotary Blignaut, State Attorney Dick
son and Members of the Council Van
Tader and Kuppervergen came in yes
terday and surrendered.
| LONDON, July 9.-Late news from
South Africa reports that the Beers in
effectually attacked General Buffers
escort between Standerton and Heidel-
berg on Saturday, as he was returning
from a visit to Lord Roberts.
SENEKAL, Orange River Colony,
July 9. (Monday).-An extended recon-
naissance today resulted in the dis
covery that the Beers had evacuated all
their positions around Senekal. Num-
bers appear to have gone towards
FickSbure and the remainder in the
direction of Bethlehem. The British
commanders express the opinion that
the retirement of the Beers foreshadows
a speedy end of the war in this section
of the country.

Peru's Tax TO Chilli.

NEW YORK. July 10.-A despatch to
the Herald from Lima, Peru, says:
Garland's new pamphlet, treating of
the war indemnity collected by Chilli
from Peru and Bolivia since 1879, has
made a deep impression here.
Figures are given which show that
by 1885 Chill will have received for nj
trate and iodine from the Peruvian
province of Tarapaca twenty-rhree
hundred and fifty million Gillian dol
lars. and from Bolivia six hundred and
fifty million dollars.
Thus the war indemnity paid to Chilli
will reach three thousand million dol
lars-a greater sum than France paid
to Germany.

IS 1T RIGHT FOR AN EDITOR TO
RECOMMEND PATENT MEDI-
CINES?
[From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard,
N. CT

N. CT
1t may be. a question whether the ed
itor of newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as preventive of suffering
we feel 1t duty to say a good word
for ChamLerlains Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea RENE dy. We have known
and used this medicine in our family
for twenty years, and have always
found 1t reliable. In many cases a
dose oL this remedy would save hours Of
suffering while physician is awaited.
We do not believe in depending i'm
plicitly on any medicine for a cure, but
we do beneve that IL a bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep-
ton of an attack much suffering might
be avoided, and In many cases the
presence of physician would not be
required. At least t. is has been our ex-
perience during the last twenty years.
