PROCEEDINGS TO PREVENT CIV

Alleged That the Common Carriers Entered Into Secret Agreement to make Unlawful Rcduc-
 tions of Tariffs.

 Each one of these roads was furnished with the following notice and copy of of the United States Circuit Court al Kansas City tomorrow:
 You will please take notice that on Wednesday. March l9, 1s02. the undersign- of America. will apply to the above named court or to one of the Judges thereof, at Kansas City,. Mo, for a tenn rorarv injunction or restrainlhG order to restrain your railroad conpany,.

A. Day.
 Especial United states Attorney"
 The bill to be filed tomorrow morning recites that the accused roads have mad } schedules of 8 i-2 cents hundred pounds on packing house products from Kansas City to Chicago this being only until January l. This Is the lawful rate. Then it is declared that the railways involved secretly made a rate of l-2 cents with corresponding reductions through to New York and through unlawful combinations received large quantities of packing house products. later returning to certain shippehs the difference between the sec ret and the published rate. Then the bill set forth the facts disclosed at the re- cent investigation before the Interstate Commerce Commission in this city.
 It was learned that Judge Phillips is at Jefferson City, Mo, and probably will not be able to go to Kansas City tomor- row. As the attorneys of some roads can not well 20 to Jefferson City in such short notice, 1t was agreed that Attorney Day, who has gone to Kansas City. should be requested to delay action for a day or two.
 1t is understood that no serious ob1ec- tions will be made to the injunction. Most of the larger railroad systems claim to be in favor of preventing rate cut ting and paying rebates. They say that they will be the gathers if rates are maintained. as it Is the small and in direct lines that cut the rates to hold their own against the big companies and that the latter are forced generally to meet the cut rates. The same charges or secret rates and rebates are made in re- gard to the grain shipments from Kan sas City.

RUSSIAN STUDENTS RIOTS.
Revolutionary Tracts Spread Broad
 cast on the Streets. a

St. Petersburg. Monday, March IS, via the frontier, March 1S-The comparative iy bloodless outcome of Sundays riots ae- velops a rather Gilbertain feature of an otherwise serious political move. The students, preparing to make c demon strs ton, sent letters to the authorities, promising to demonstrate wholly unarm- ed, and begged that the police instead of the military might be sent to maintain order. In tact. while the military were numerous. the police were in the major ity and the cavalry did not use to any great extent the terrible Cossack whips, which caused so many fatalities in 1901.
 The students managed to distribute c mass of ineendiary literature from the tops of street cars while the police were busy fighting below. Some of these tracts were couched in the most revolutionary language ever sent broadcast in Russia. The following Is an extract from a leaf- let:
 "Citizens of Russia, awake from that nightmare of harsh despotisrn which op- presses every man In Russia, under which 1t Is impo ssible for three men to meet together. Is 1t not strange that one man, with insignificant mental faculties should rule over 140,o00.000 people3

HEAVY LOSS TO RAILROADS.
Transcoftinental Lines Have Not Yet
 Cleared Tracks.

St. Paul, Minn., March 1s.--Neither of the transeontinental lines has as ve fully succeeded in clearing its road oi the great heaps of snow under which 1t was buried by last weeks blizzard. Ad- vices received at the Northern Pacifie were to the effect that 1t now seemed possible that trains would be again run ming before morning.
 The Great Northern officials also say ,bat tbev hone to have their trains run ming some time tonight. The Boo Pacific has only partially succeeded in apsnr,S opening traffic The loss of life and property caused by the storm is still largely a matter of conjecture. But five authenti- cated cases of loss of human life have 90 far been reported. Estimates on the nercentAge of loss to live stock ranges from two to sixty per cent. and 1t will be some days until anything Ike accu- rate figures can be obtained. It IS est mated that the loss to the transcont- nanfsI railroads will amount 10 very nearly half a million dollars.
