Pittsburg, Oct. lS.-The Western
Union Telegraph company, through its
attorneys today filed q suit in equity
against the Pennsylvania company TO
restrain the latter from taking away
the formers right TO use the telegraph
lines along the Pennsylvania road.
When the Wabash railroad, a Gould
property started to enter Pittsburg

mage. the Pennsylvania company, as a
retaliatory measure, it is alleged,
rescinded certain contracts between it
and the Western Union, in yolving the
use of thousands of miles of lines, Of
fees, etc. and transferring this right
to the Postal Telegraph system. The
suit begun today asks temporary and
perpetual injunctions to restrain the
defendant from interfering with the
maintenance and operations of the lines
along the Pennsylvania rOadWays. con-
tending that the removal Of its lines
by the defendant was in violation of the
contracts between the companies and
that the Pennsylvania is without au-
thority in attempting to terminate Lhe
agreements by serving notice. as 1t did
in June, 1902

CHOLERA is DYING OUT


Washington, Oct 1S-Some interest
ing information not covered in the dis
patches is found in the Manila news
recently received at the war depart
ment. 1t is shown that cholera is rap
idly dying out in Manila and that all
the provinces. with the exception of Ilo-
lilo, Leyte and Zambales show a great
Improvement. IN Cebu, where the chol-
era was quite disastrous, il is now
under complete control.
An account of the reorganization of
lighthouse and coast guard service is
given. Commander Mark, of the navy,
has charge and has under him a feet
consisting of twenty-one vessels,
manned by 600 men. The vessels are
built especially for patrolling unknown
waters, with Accommodations to meet
requirements of a tropical cline. The
service is similar 10 the revenue cutter
of this country and is a branch of the
civil government. The officers are to
serve a probationary time, and promo
ton viii be made as in the United
States navy.
BY direction of the war department,
regular officers of the army are author
lied to try by courtmartial the Phil
ippine scouts. The question of au-
thOrity on this point was raised on ac-
count of the recent supreme court
decision that regular officers could not
try volunteers. but the Philippines are
held to be a part Of the regular army
under the laws authorizing their or
ganization-
Protests have recently been made to
the civil government against the super
intendent of the ice and refrigerator
plant, who issued an order that dis
titled water should hereafter be sold at
4 cents a gallon instead of being given
away, as heretofore. 1t is declared that
the distilled water should be distributed
free. as il was the means of preventing
the spread of cholera.
The supervising architect for the
civil government has recommended that
a suitable building be erected for the
governor of the islands. as the Malacan
palace, which was the home Of the
former Spanish governor generals and
has been used by the military and civil
governors of the United States, is no
longer fit for a residence.

7HE TRUTH PROCLAIMED
BY SENATOR RAWLINS
ndge King and Major Young Ably ExpOund the
Cardinal Principles of Democracy.
,ssnso Frank Cannon Delivers Brilliant and Eloquent ad.

Democratic party had always advo-
Gated as a fundamental principle of
government exact justice TO all and
special privileges to none. The Re-
publican party violated this principle
in 1897 when IL enacted the Dingley
bill, for II operated to protect a few
individuals engaged in certain lines of
employment. Competition was shut
out and these few were able to con-
troll the respective factories and mark
cts for their products. and ultimately
to monopolze them, and the process
of accommodating wealth and monopoliz-
ing trade has gone on until the huge
monopolies and trusts have become a
menace 10 the people While this class
has been protected. the laboring man
has been left 10 shift and shuttle for
himself until now he Is the victim

more for the necessaries of life. with
out cOrrespondingly advancing his
wages. The average cost of living
since the ringley bin was enacted has
Increased 40 per cent while the in
crease In wages does not exceed 10
per cent.
When the laboring man demands
higher wages he is told by the trusts
he shall not receive II: a strike re-
suits, and abor is told by the trusts
that other labor from foreign shores
will be brought in 10 take its place.
When he attempts to persuade his
brother laborer from going back to
work, he is enjoined by Republican
law. He was compelled too In many I'm
stances TO buy his necessaries of life
from stores owned by the trusts: he
lives in trust buildings. and wears
trust-made clothes at an advanced
price. The trusts that so much an
noy the iaborer have been fostered by
Republican laws, protected by Repub-
lean officials.
The laws respecting trusts and TO
curtail trusts are not enforced.
