Argument ON Hay Rates.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-The interstate
commerce commission began Its sessions
here today, and the complaint of the
National Hay association that railroad
rates on hay are too high was taken up
at once. T. e. Goodrich, attorney for
the hay association, occupied the witness
stand during the forenoon and testified
that the rise in freight tariffs on hay
had curtailed the business of raisers of
hay to considerable extent. Thirty
railways which are named in the petit
ton for a lower rate were represented

GEORGE KENNAN,s EXPULSION.
No Report Yet Made to the State De

NO REPORT Yet Made to the State De-
partment.
1t is said at the State Department that
no information has been received there in
regard to the reported action of the Rus
sian government in compelling George
Kennan, the American author and lecturer.
to quit that country without delay.
George kennan arrived in st. Petersburg
about the beginning of the present month,
after short stay in Finland. 1t was an
nounced that he would spend some months
at the Russian capital in the study Of Rus
sian life and literature
Mr.. Kennan has had large opportunities
for familiarfzing himself with Russia and
it's government and people. Thirty-five
years ago he superintended the construc-
tion Of telegraph lines in Siberia, and a
few years later travelled extensively in the
Caucasus. In 1855 he made a third
journey to Russia, this time for the spe-
cfal purpose OF investigating the Siberian
exile system.
He travelled 5000 miles in northern Rus
sia and Siberia, and on his return to the
United States published a series of maga-
zine articles, which was produced in book
form in 1891. This work attracted wide at
tention. and was translated into most of
the European languages, including Russian
and Polish.
Mr.. Kennan followed up his exposure OF
the horrors of Siberian exile by lecturing
throughout the country, and so thoroughly
did he arouse sentiment that conference
was called to inaugurate a movement to in
duce the United States government to ask
in friendly way that the sufferings Of
Siberian prisoners be alleviated as far as
possible
Since Mr.. Kennan's exposure of the hor-
hors of Siberian convict life he has been
persona non grata with the Russian gov
ernment

Kirkwood Flora, attorney for Mrs. Sarah
r. Holmes. has written the District Com
missioners submitting claim for $3.50 dam
ages alleged to have been done to the

east. L. p. Bradshaw, clerk Of the engi-

missioners that the claim is the result OF
the paving of the alley In the square men,

became necessary in the establishment Of
proper grades for the alleys to cut down
| the natural surface abutting along the side
and in the rear Of the claimants property,
approximating a depth Of about one and
one-half feet thereby necessitating the re-
building of thirty-six feet of board fence
and the underpinning and remodeiing OF
the entrance of the brick stable. THE
claimants outlay says Mr.. Bradshaw,
with the exception Of the cost of the aew
stable doors included in the $50 claimed.

the establishment OF the alley grades. an
act entirely within the limits of its author
ity. and, in so far as the Injuries claimed
have resulted from this cause. in the abb

statement made by the writer that In the
work of paving this alley the District

carried out as carefully as practicable

Reported That LII Chin Fang VIII
Come to the United States.
The state Department has received no
information tending to corroborate the
press report from Pekin to the effect that
Ii Chin Chang, the adopted son of Ii
Hung Chang. Is likely soon to succeed Wu
Ting Fang as Chinese minister to the
United States and the report is not en-
tirely discredited.
Ii Chin Fang. Lord Ii. has already seen
many years of diplomatic service.
His novitiate was spent in London as
secretary Of the Chinese legation to the
court of st. James. He made many friends
there through his amiability and intelfi-
gence. After his return to China he was
appointed minister to Japan. but before
his term of three years had expired the
death of his mother, according to the Chi
nese custom, compelled his retirement from
Office
Lord Ii was sent to Japan again. and
was minister at the Japanese court up to
the outbreak OF the Chino-Japanese war.
The reverses of China brought about his
disgrace. as he was charged with having
failed to keep his government informed of
the military and naval progress of Japan
and OF it's real aims in Corea. He was
summoned to Pekin and stripped OF his
dignities.
AS in the case OF the viceroy. however.
fortunes smiles have followed her frowns,
and Lord Ii. accompanying Ii Hung
Chang to Japan as his secretary. took an
important part in the negotiations for
peace. the more important because when

rarily as the envoy extraordinary OF China.
