STILL HAVE RATE TROUBLES
Violent Disturbance in the Rocky Mountain
Region-All Lines Concerned.

Salt Lake, Utah, Dec. 12.-Every
railroad doing business in Utah, ac-
cording to the Herald, is engaged in
rate war, the slashing being prin-
cipally on west bound traffic, for
which there is a wild scramble, re-
gardless of rates. The Rio Grande
road and the Missouri Pacific, COM
prising the western part of the Gould
system, are said to have been active
in starting the fight. The Oregon
Short Line and the Union Pacific,
says the Herald, held we'll aloof on
Chicago. and Missouri river west
bound business until yesterday, when
shippers over that system were in
formed that they would be t.taken
care of, +" no matter what might come
up.
With the Union Pacific in the fray,
all the roads are now mixed up in it,
and westbound business from the At
lantic seaboard is being moved in
many; Instances at so per cent of the
regular tariff rates. Business from
Chicago and Missouri river was taken
yesterday at 30 to 35 per cent reduc-
tion on the regular tariff.
The trouble originated, according
to the Herald, about month ago
when the Mallory and Morgan steam.
ship lines became engaged in active
competition on shipments from New

PNEUMATIC DYNAMITE GUN.
Satisfactory Test Of New Weapon at Hill
ton Head S. c.

Savannah, Ga, Dec. 1.-THE test
of the new pneumatic gun at Hilton
Head, S. c.. yesterday, under the
auspices of a board of army officers, is
believed to have been satisfactory.
Major Ira McNutt, of the ordnance
department., was chief officer of the
board. The gun is at the entrance
to Port Royal harbor, which it COM
mands. 1t was shown that the gun
has a range of 5000 yards. Eight
projectiles loaded with explosive
gelatine were fired. Six of them ex-
ploded upon impact and threw vol
umes of water into the air. Two
were fixed with time fuses. If they
exploded, it was at such depth un-
der water that no disturbance was
discernible. The explosive charges
ranged from SO to 200 pounds of nj
trogelatine. Five dummieslWere fired
to test the speed. The government
required that they should be dis
charged in 20 minutes. The time
taken to fire them was 10k minutes.
Forty dummies of l, l80 pounds each
we're then fired as an endurance test.
There was no hitch.

A CARNEGIE OFFER
WILL GIVE SIO,oOo,ooo FOR A
NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
President Roosevelt Will Send His Letter to
Congress in Special Msssase-Does
Not Ask the Government to Appropriate
Dollar-Leadins Educators of the
Country Endorse the Plan.

Washington, Dec. 11.-President
Roosevelt has received a letter from
Andrew Carnegie in which the latter
offers to make donation of $40. 600, :
600 to the United States. The letter
will be referred to congress by the
president in special message.
Mr.. Carnegie's gift is for the pur-
pose of establishing in Washington a
university for higher education. As
far as his idea has been developed, it
proposed a gift after the manner of
the bequest of James Smithson, the
Englishman, who gave $1,000, 900
for the establishment and mainte-
nance of what is now known as the
Smithsonian institute. Smithson
desired the institute founded by him
to be factor in the diffusion of sci
entific knowledge. Mr.. Carnegie pro-
posed that the university which he is
to endow shall be the greatest insti-
tuition in the world for the develop
ment of higher education. He has
consulted President Gilman, of Johns
Hopkins University; President Had
ley, of Yale; President Eliot, of Har-
ward; ex-President White of Cornell.
and all the leading educators in the
country. They heartily endorse his
plans.
The proposed university will not
interfere in the least with the educa-
tional institutions already established,
but will supplement them, for, ac-
cording to the present plan, its doors
will be open only to those who desire
to take up post graduate course.
Mr.. Carnegie also wants the new uni
versity to take the lead in original
researches, so that the United States
can eventually stand side by side with
Germany, if not excel that nation,
in scientific development.
Mr.. Carnegie's plan does not pro-
pose national university in the sense
that an appropriation willssbe asked or
needed. The government is simply to
be the trustee of the magnificent en-
dowment, just as it administers the
fund bequeathed by Smithson. 1t is
probable that board of regents will
be appointed, as in the case of the
Smithsonian institution, For it may be
that the government will be repre-
sented upon the board of directors,
which, it is contemplated, shall con-
sist of men of national reputation.
Mr.. Carnegie has kept the proposed
endowment secret until he could
definitely arrange the plan and scope
of the new university. Even yet, all
these details have not been arranoed
so that little more than the outline of
the gift can be published. 1t is
known, however, that he does not
propose to ask from Congress single
| foot of land.

MISS STONE HEARD FROM.
American Officers Will Dispatch Agents to
Deal With the Bandits.

Sofia, Dec. 11.-According to infor-
nation received from Salonica, Miss
Ellen M. Stone and Nine Tsilka, her
companion, are concealed in the, vi
cinity of Rilo, about five miles south
of Dubnitza, in Bulgarian territory.
The news was brought by Mace
donian, who left there December L,
and who furnished precise informa-
tion regarding the hiding place and
the names of the agents supplying
food for the brigands and their cap
tives.
1t is understood that the informa-
tion is considered reliable enough to
justify the American officers in Tur-
key to dispatch agents to treat with
the bandits, and application has al
ready been made to the Turkish gov
ernment for the free passage of the
emissaries across the Turkish from
tier, which is vigorously guarded by
troops at every hundred yards.

Butte spent several days in the cave,
going over an are of 10 miles, and to
a depth of nearly 1000 feet. A large
river, with cataract of about 100
feet was explored for a distance Of
several miles, without discovering
its source or outlet. A few articles
of stone and copper utensils and some
bones, believed to be human, were
also found in one of tine large apart

MINERS ON A STRIKE.
Disagreement Between the Management and
the Mer.

Vancouver, B. c., Dec. ia
special from Nanaimo says that the
mines at Alexandra, owned by the
Dunsmuirs, were closed down today
because of a disagreement between
the management and the men. The
unions of mineworkers at Nanaimo,
Alexandra and Extension formed a
general federation on Saturday. These
mines are not all owned by the same
company, and it was stated that,
while the Dunsmuir interests were
willing that all the men in their
mines should federate, consent was
lacking to an association between
Dunsmuir miners and those employed
by other companies. 1t is announced
that negotiations are now in progress
between the management and the
men looking to the reopening of the
Alexandra mines. The lockout at
Alexandra affects 600 men. The
Extension mines, under the same
ownership, employ larger number.

THE BRITISH. COAL TRADE.
Falling Off of Exports Causes a Good Deal
of Apprehension.

New York, Dec. LITTLE situation
in the British coal trade is causing a
great deal of apprehension on the
part of the owners and merchants,
and there is resumption of the
-outcry against the export tax which
formed so prominent feature of Sir
Michael 'Hicks-Beaeh,s last budget,
says the London correspondent of the
Tribune. Coal exports have de-
creased by $4,000 tons during the
first 10 months, of the present year,
and the average number of days
worked by the colliers has generally
fallen off, while in most OF the prin-
cipal districts the supply is in excess
of the demand. The iron industry,
which usually accounts for 35, ,O00,-
600 to 10000, 900 tons year, has
greatly reduced its consumption,
owing to the reduction in the num-
ber of furnaces in blast.

EXECUTIVE SESSION
SENATE BEGINS CONSIDERATION
OF THE CANAL TREATY.
Lodge Explained the Difference Between the
Old Canal Treaty and the New One "A
Change Of Wording Gives the United
States the Right to Fortify and Control
the Canal In Time of War.

Washington, Dec. H. The open
session of the senate yesterday was
devoted to routine business, such as
the presentation of bills, petitions
and memorials. The senate then
went into executive session on motion
of Lodge, who has charge of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, and adjourned at
/ :55 O'Clock. After going into ex-
ecutive session, Senator Hoar present.
ed the report of the committee on
Judiciary, recommending the con-
firmation of Attorney General Knox.
The senate then, before taking up
the 1sthmian canal treaty, proceeded
to pass upon sother nominations, of
which there are an exceptionally
large number before the serate. e =.
After a number nf nominations
had been confirmed Senator Lodge
called up the canal treaty and made a
brief statement regarding that con-
vention. The senate then adjourned
in order to give the Democratic men,
bers of the committee an opportunity
to hold meeting. >.
Lodge contended that the new
treaty does away with all the objec-
tionable features of the last conven-
tion, and enumerated the particulars
in which the revised agreement con-
forms to the action of the senate in
the last congress, when the old treaty
was before it. He analyzed the new
treaty from beginning to end, show
ing that in specific terms it abrogates
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty of 1850,
which, he said. had stood constantly
in the way of the construction of an
isthmian canal. The abrogation of
this treaty, he contended, was most
important achievement, and he did
not believe that the United States
should or would lose an opportunity
to make secure that concession.
Senator Lodge also called attention
to the omission in paragraph l OF
article 8 of the words in time OF
war as in time of peace" He said
that in the old treaty the paragraph
read "that the canal shall be free
and open IN time of war as in time
OF peace, to the vessels of commerce
and of war of all nations on terms oi
entire equality" etc. He urged that
the omission of this phrase had the
effect practically of leaving the
United States to do with the canal
in time of war according to its own
pleasure. He also referred to the fact
that rule 7 in the treaty of the
powers regulating the control of the
Suez canal, which had been en-
bodied in the original Hay-Pauncefote
treaty, had been omitted from the re.
vised draft.
He quoted from this rule, which
provided that mo Notifications shall
be erected commanding the canal ol
the waters adjacent, etc. This, he
said, was a material concession to
the United States, and was. quite
sufficient to meet the objections made
against the agreement, that the
United States would have no power
to protect its property. It practical
ly left the United States free to fort
| ify the canal in case it should be con
sidered desirable to do so, and was il
line with the omission of the restric
tion keeping-the canal open in tim
| of war
