RATE CUTTING.
Efforts Made to Stop 1.-THE
Santa Fe Situation.

ST. Louis, July S.-A meeting of the
Western trunk line committee has been
called by the new chairman, ]. V. Ma
honey. for Tuesday morning. when an
effort will be made to get the Santa
F'e to withdraw its cut rate notice and
to fix up the rate situation. 1t is stated
however, that the Santa Fe manage
ment has determined not to again en-
ter the combination unless the Great
Western shall become a member and
give money guaranty that rates shall
be maintained. 1t is not to be under
stood, however, that the Great Western
is the only road against which COM
plant has been made.
The roads which are directly affected
and which will have to meet the cut
rates are the following: Santa Fe, Bur
lington, Alton, Great Western, St. Paul,
Rock Island, Wabash, Northwestern,
and a score of other roads.
AS the rates made between Chicago
and the Missouri river Will be used as
basing rates for through traffic, the
rates on alh through freight will be
lead to equal, if not greater, reduction
in rates on through" traffic via either
gateways.
Rates from Kansas City to the east
We're In good shape until the latter part
of May, when the Santa Fe began get
ting the business of one of the biggest
packing houses at Kansas City which
usually gave its dressed beef shipments
of one of the western lines. "Since that
time rates have been sliding down as If
they were creased. No, rates We're not
openly reduceds but a good many vouch-
ers were drawn in favor of the shippers.
In plain words, the railroads paid re-
bates, the interstate commerce law to
the contrary notwithstanding. 1 do not
think the Santa F'e has reason to COM
plain of the amount of traffic it has
been getting since May 20. Some of its
rivals have good cause for complaint
and others have good cause for reioic-
ing-temporarily. / would not be sur
prised to see the rates just announced
by the Santa Fe cut in two by some of
discouraging- The rate situation east
of Chicago is very bad, and can hardly
improve before the close of lake navf-
cation The cutting of rates by rail-
roads at this time IS absolutely sense
less The volume of traffic is so large
that every road would have all it could
comfortably handle if all of them strict
ly maintained rates. 1t simply seems
that some of them cannot stand pros
perity."

more, who is recognized among the
church workers as the logical successor
of the late evangelist, DR.. Dwight l.
Moody.
He talked on prayer today, on its
foundation from the technical stand
point in the scriptures.
A unique feature of the convention
is the monday evangeiistic work ar
ranged under the direction Of DR.. c. L
Work of Cincinnati. Services are held
in the tenement and manufacturing dis
tricts by delegates VINO volunteered their
services.
At the big rally in the Auditorium
Endeavor $his morning the Rev Iunls

off and President Clark made way for
him today. An unusually large out
pouring attended the rally.

the principal speaker.
The afternoon programme was equal
ly as interesting as the one in the
morning and enough meetings were
held in the various places Of assembling
to give all visiting and local Endeav-
orers a chance to attend. The big meet
ing at Auditorium Williston was pre-
sided over by James Lewis HoSe Of

year from now it is the intention TO
make a start in carrying out cooper

troops composed of regulars and ma

will be feasible, it is hoped, to quarter
at least a regiment at each of these
posts, and few months later a bril-
gade or perhaps a division can be
modified for several months drill and
evolutions, under cam paigning condi-
tions. BY another year militia may be
called from various states. and extend

Secretary Root heartily supports the
plans, and by a personal inspection OF
the schools and posts he expects to be
in position to invoke the support OF
congress towards securing the neces-
sary funds.

SALOONS OPEN SUNDAY.
Did a Good Business in Kansas
City With No Arrests.

Kansas City. July S-Practically all
the saloons of Kansas City were open
and did business yesterday, but no ar
rests resulted. The police were aware
of what was going on, but they stuck
to their theory that there was nothing
to be gained by arresting men and tax
ing them to the station, only to have
them released the next morning by the
police court, on the ground that there
was not sufficient evidence against
them.
The amount of drunkenness yester-
day was greater than on any Sunday in
several weeks. The holdover was filed
last night with men charged with dis

NEiGHBORHOOD NOTES.
OuAt,cocD

Mr.. John Outten is building a
home in the Eastern part of the town
on a new street.
| Very few persons OF this section at

Capital on Monday.
The Hallett house, on East Market
street, is undergoing repairs. 1t /,
said that it will be occupied by 6
family coming from New York.
The ladies are shopping prepare
tory to Easter. The new suits in the
brighter coloring and newer styles
Of early spring will be pleasing, in
deed.
The sudden, severe change of
weather on Tuesday evening, follow
ing spring temperature, WAS shock
to nature. On Thursday night the
mercury dropped to 100 above zero,
which was the same as the coolest
period Of the winter. This low reg
lister is of very rare occurrence here
as late as the 18th Of March.
The recent clear, warm days,
foretelling the near approach Of
spring, have brought activity. On
Saturday afternoon a large number
of people were in town and trading
was good, beyond expectation. On
Monday travel began at an early
hour aud there was considerable
shopping by the ladies. The progress
sive stores are receiving seasonable
goods in their special lines. FarM
supplies are in demand.
1t is probable that two gasoline
yachts for pleasure and business will
be purchased here in the spring. The
pleasures of our creek and the nearby
bay shore are more appreciated and
receive more attention than former
ly. The city visitors and summer
boarders enjoy almost daily excur-
sions Now is the time for those who
wish to secure summer borders to aid

pleasant places as the homes of On
