United, and That Legal Ac-
tIOn Is InevItabIe-Mcet-
ing Tomorrow.

Railroad officials have held several lit
tie heart to heart talks of late over the
much discussed rate schedule which the
commission recently proposed and 1t has
been stated by more than one prominent
railroad man that there will be no as
senting to the schedule tomorrow when
the commission and the railroads meet
for the final round in the Interesting lit
tie battle that has been pending for some
weeks. They deny that a. single road
Will accept the rates as originally pro-
posed and that upon the other hand they
will all stand united and fight it out Ito
the bitter end in the courts-that is II
the commission insists upon installing the
schedule.
The commission has stated that unless
the railroads agree to accept the rates as
submitted they would have to enforce
them after the meeting tomorrow. The
railroads have practically said they would
positively not accept the rates. so the
only conclusion to deduct, since both ar
ties seem to be determined in their re-
spective positions, is that the schedule
will be declared in effect by the COM
mission and that the railroads thereupon
will go to the courts for redress from
what they consider to be unjust ruling s..

MoBRED THE SHIRT WAISTS.
Douglas Park Couldn,t stand for the

CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-If shirtwais;s are
a mark ct advanced civilization Douglas
park residents refuse to advance. There
was a. scene oe turmoil and Indignation
yesterday at the park when two your g
men dared to invade the southwest side
attired in these festive garments One
young man wore waist as blue as + g
waters of the Caribbean, the otiiccss q +.'a +
as red as Tommys baby shoes. They
not only wore waists, but also carried
cherryWQoq canes and smoked cigarettes
with gold tips.
Never before had their like been seen
in the Sunday haunt of the southwest
Chicago citizen.
A couple Of small boys playing ball in
the street We're SO astonished that they
began to follow the young men, with the
same instinct that gives drawing power
to the band wagon, making caustic com
ments as they sauntered behind the pair.
Say, Red, let's give EN- a mud bath,
sang out one of the small boys, as ne
jumped into the gutter and dug out
handfui Of wet earth. ''Ping? and the
cluster went through the air and struck
the owner of the blue waist square In tho
back
Then the trouble started. The hero of
the red waist swung his cane at one of
his diminudve assailants This was the
signal for the older boys to assume the
offensive. They started for the wearers
of the waists and the latter fed.

CHICAGO IN THE COLD.
Grain Shipments Seem to BE Stead
lily Pouring NOrthvard This Year.

lay POurkng NOrthWard This Year.
There has been decided decrease in
the shipments of grain into Chi ago from
Western states during the past few
months and the falling off in this traffic
is causing considerable anxiety among
railroad men at the Windy City as well
as men in many other lines of business
to whom grain shipments are very nee es-
sary elements.
While the shipments have fallen off for
Chicago they have materially Increased
at Minneapolis, st. Paul and Duluth.
Local freight traffic men state that the
shipments for the past eight months,
which means from the first OF the year
to the first of September, have shown q
very substantial increase and there is no
room for the slightest complaint upon the
part of the railroads The official reu orts
show that for the last eight months the
receipts at Chicago haze been less tt an
during a similar period for the past three
years. Sections in Kansas, Nebraska and
other states that heretofore have sent
most of their grain through Chicago,
have this year sent only a very small
part of it there and the same sections
have contributed a large bulk OF 1t to
the Minnesota ports.
Chicago men are busily engaged as
signing first one cause and then another
for this loss of business. Many of them
are unwilling to admit that the grain has
been diverted over northern routes, con-
fencing Rather that it has gone mostly
over the sou hern functions with Eastern
roads. But the records do not bear out
the statement that the majority of the
Shipments which Chicago has lost have
been south of this state It is the con-
tention of local men who are authority
upon the subject that it haj COM north

ance and Brush to BE Opened.
Official announcement has been made
that the Burlington's new line between
ALLIANCE. Neb, and Brush, Col, will he
formally opened to general traffic on
Sept. 10. The new branch is 1883 miles
long, and is laid with eighty-fve-p pound
steel rails. It will make a short route
between Denver and the rich mining dis-
tricts of South Dakota and Monta- g.
The new line connects with the SYSTEM
Guernsey extension at Northport, Neb.,
and practically opens up new trans
continental railway between Colorado and
points in Montana, Washington and the
North Pacific coast. Under existing con-
itions the Burlington's traffic between
Denver and the Black hills must be
handled by way Of Lincoln. The new cut
off will reduce the present distance 673
miles. A passenger will be able to leave
Deadwood in the morning and reae h Dsn-
yer the same night. The new line will
be of marked Importance to the lumber
and single interests of the Puget sound
district, as it will open up a new mar
ket. This trade is now to a great extent
shut off from the Colorado markets be-
cause of the long haul.

HOUSTON, Tex, Sept. 1O-Tnere is no
doubt that the cotton crop has been Sc
riously injured throughout Southern and
central Texas. Owing to the excessive
rains this year the cotton has grown
to weed more than ever known, and in
some fields it ranges from 6 to 10 feet
high ard is very rank with leaf. The
wind has whipped and twisted the
stalks beating the open cotton out of
the bur and the rain has beaten 1t INTO
the ground so that 1t is ruined. That
which is not yet open is all that will
be left and the boil weeYil has been
doing damage to the young cotton, so
that the outlook now is gloomy so far
as this season is concerned Core
spondents at all points report that much
damage has been done to the crop.
