AS a matter Of fact, half Of the men on
Broadway are not so terriically busy and
important as they consider themselves.
They seem to be in great hurry, but
they do not move very fast, as all know
who try to take the walk UP town at a
brisk pace, and most of them wear that
intent, troubled expression Of counte-
nance simply from imitation Of habit
generated by the spirit Of the place. But
it gives a quaking sensation to the poor
young man from the country who has
been walking the streets for weeks look
ing for a job, and it makes the visiting
foreigner take out his notebook and write
a stereotyped phrase or two about Amer
leans next to his note about our "Quick
Lunch" signs, which never fail to aston
ish him and behind which may be seen
lunchers lingering for the space of two
cigars.-From 1.-THE Walk Up Town In
New York." by Jesse Lynch Williams, In
Scribner's.

The stock of the sugar trus t
is now below par for the first
time in years. It is one of the
favorite stocks for Wall street
gambling, and it is generally
manipulated. An unusually
low dividend was lately de-

claimed that it was the for pur::
pose of lowering the stock in
the market.

The problem of transporta-
ton is the greatest one before
the English commanders in
South Africa. The supplies
needed by the quarter. of mil
lion British soldiers soon to be
in the field will require the care
of the best organizers in the
world. If the soldiers can be
kept supplied the war can be
ended in few months.

The price of cotton is higher by

the South comes to vote, it will
be solid for free silver, anti-ex-

COMPETITORS FIX THE RATES.
Northern Pacific's Answer in st. Cloud
Rate Case-To. Be Tried
in May.

in May.
From the Pioneer Press.
The Northern Pacific railroad
filed yesterday it's answer to the
equity suit brought yesterday
Sin the United. States circuit
court by the interstate com
MERGE commission. The COM
mission visited st. Paul last
year to investigate the charge
that the company was violating
the "long and short haul" clause
of the interstate commerce act
by charging higher rates in pro-
portion from st. Cloud to the
head of the lakes than from the
Twin Cities. The commission
found the charge substantiated,
and ordered the company to
amend it's tariff accordingly.
When, however, it appeared
that the company. had ignored
their order, the commission
brought the action named to
compel the company to show
cause to the court why the COM
missions order should not be
obeyed.
The company's answer ad-
mits that the company "'has and
still continues to disregard and
declines to obey the said order"
The company "denies that the
higher rates charged ir pro-
portion by the defendant for the
haul to and from St. Cloud than
are charged for the haul to and
from St. Paul, Minneapolis and
common points are in violation
OF the act to regula tie commerce.
The answer recites that the
Northern Pacific, whose lines
between the Twin cities and
the head of the lake is PAL miles
long, has three competitors
the Omaha road, whose line is
179 miles long; the Duluth road,
whose line is 100 miles long,
and the. Great Northern and
Eastern Minnesota, whose COM
bined line is but 146 miles long.
The cars of the Northern Paci-
FIG are often lightly loaded or
even empty in trains necessarily
hauled between the points
named. Hence the company
can afford to carry freight at the
low through rates fixed by the
other companies. But if such
rates were applied proper
tionately on the traffic between
local points on the same line the
company would be doing bust
ness at a loss.
The Northern Pacific, it is
added, merely adopted through
rates already existing. The
rates to and from st. Cloud
have not been changed. by the
though traffic of that company.
'"The defendant insists that no
shipper in Minnesota or else
where is injured by the traffic,
and that no shipper would be
benefited by withdrawing that
tariff
The answer was prepared by
the company's solicitor, G. W.
Bum. tits probable that the
case will not come up for trial
until the May term, when Them
terstate commerce commission
will be present.

London July 10, 1 a. m.-Lord Roberts reports
from Pretoria a battle and a fox chase. The
battle brought on by General Botha, who
attacked General Pole-Carews position east OF
Pretoria while General Hamilton was moving
northward and driving back Dearey's COM
mando, and General French was in the centre,
between the two wings. This was a vigorous
counterstroke planned when Lord Roberts had
succeeded in cutting off communications be-
tween the two Boer forces and was pushing
back the weaker column from Waterfall.
The British positions were gallanty defended
by the Canadian and the New-Zealand Mounted
Infantry and the Irish Fusiliers, and a series Of
desperate attacks repulsed.
The losses were balanced each side. but
included two brave Canadian officers Lieuten-
ants Borden and Birch, to whom Lord Roberts
pays fine tribute
While Lord Roberts's army is virtually the
defensive within a few miles of Pretoria, he has
sent Lord Methuen and General Smith-Dorrien
from Krtigersdorp to Rustenburg to clear the
western district, where recent successes have
caused a renewal Of the bad feeling against the
British The fox hunt has begun in the Orange
River Colony where Generals Hunter and Run
die were slowly but surely closing around Gen
eral De Vets commanders The fox has sud
denly started across country toward Lindley
with the mounted forces of COlonels BroadwOod
and Ridley in hot pursuit. The Boer force does
not exceed fifteen hundred men, with five guns
and the pursuers, if their horses are in good
condition, may succeed in running it down. If
this can be done the pacifcation of the Orange
River Colony ought TO be effected rapidly. as
the remaining commanders cannot keep up the
fight In the mountains If Van Reenen's Pass
and Harrismith have been taken from Lady
smith the hare must first be caught.
The renewal of the Boer activity is probably
due to the effect Of the crisis in China. Mr.
KRUGER and Mr.. Steyn have perceived in the
Far East a diversion in their favor which they
previously expected either from European diplo-
macy or from American politics l. n. f.
