with the occurrence. Some of them say
that just prior to the flash of lightning,
a peculiarly soft, mellow light appeared

1t is also said that the lightning, af-

passed along the running gear of the

Reports of engagements Show Fighting

New York, Aug. 16. Details regard.
ing the Venezuelan Colombian conflict
of July % have been received and CON.
veyed the first intimation that the bat
tie was serious one. The engagement
was fought at Las Pilias, La Parada
and Princes and lasted 20 hours. The
Colombian forces were compelled to re.
tire, but not before 100 of both sides
had been killed and wounded. Among
these were General Resendo Medina Of
the Venezuelan side and four colonels.
The army of $4,000 invaders was divid-
cd into % regiments, some of which
were Of the regular Colombian army,
commanded by government officers and
using the army artillery.
Because of the strict postal, press and
cable censorship exercised, the victories
won by the rebels in several battles were
until now given as mere rumors.- On
July 20, according to insurgent advices,
General Jose NJ Castillo defeated the
government troops under General Luis
Velez at Palmira, taking a great many
prisoners and supplies. General Clodo-
miro Castillo won battle over a regi-
ment that attempted to intercept his
command in its march to Rio HachA.
General Marin's forces have won sew
eral engagements, and now practically
control, the department of Tolima. Two
other battles, with favorable results for
the rebels, took place at Cananzas and
Gatiann, department of Panama.
Four battles have been fought during
the last month in the south of Cauca,
which were also government defeats,
though details are lacking.

NO MORE CAR RATES.
Small shippers Can No Longer Combine

Small shippers Can No Longer Combine
and Ship by Car Loads.
New York, Aug. I6.-It has been as.
certained from official sources that rail
roads in the Southern assoc iation and
their connecting steamer lines between
northern and southern ports are endeav-
oring to prevent the consolidating of
small shipments to Texas points-less
than carload into carload lots-for the
purpose of obtaining the lower freight
rate given on carload consignments.
The point was made that the prac-
tice has assumed quite extensive pro-
portions and has caused loss in reve.
nue. to carriers concerned. Some doubt,
however, is entertained among mer.
chants here as to the outcome, in point
OF increase in the revenue, Of efforts to
stop the practice.
The Mallory Line has already given
notice to shippers to the effect that
small consignments from different ship
pers cannot be bulked together on the
dock in order to get the lower carload
rating The Morgan Line, it is under
stood, has issued, or is about to issue, a
similar notice. The Mallory Line states
in substance that in order to get the car
load rating, shipments must be made by
one shipper from one of origin and to
one consignee, that carload rates will
not be given on small consignments of
goods from different quarters and ship
pers and consolidation on the docks.
