END OF LONG LITIGATION.
Great Northern Railroad Fails In At
 tempt to Dust Western Union.

St. Paul, Minn., November 4.-In a de- cision handed down late yesterday by Judge Thayer of the United States court was worsted in its suit to oust the West ern Union from the railroads right of way. The decision is the continuation of ten year of litigation.
 The decision holds that the contention of the rGeat Northern Railroad company in this instance meant little less than confscation.
 The circuit court of appeals holds that the contract which the telegraph compa- ny has with the Great Northern was and is for perpetual right of way and not to be disrupted, but 1t is allowed that the railway company is entitled to the cost of transporting any and all material which the telegraph company uses in the construction of its lines. The litigation involved s25 miles of line built prior to 1892 and now valued at s2,500,000. The lines are on the old St Paul. Minneapo- lis and Manitoba road. built prior to 1882, and decided by the court to be held joint ly by the telegraph and railway compa- nies. The court adds that should the two companies in dispute fail to agree as to the amount of compensation for trans porting construction materials the court will appoint a master in chancery and two commissioners to take testimony and report and the court will then pass upon the matter.
 Judge Thayer wrote the decision and Judge Caldwell concurred. Judge San- ! born dissented. The decision is regard ed as very important in view of the liti- gation of a somewhat similar character now pending in the east.

 BIBLE WORK.

Miss Blodgett of Detroit the noted Bible teacher, spoke to a large audience Of women yesterday afternoon at the First Methodist church.
 Miss Rlodgett's series of Bible talks Primary union, and will be very helpful course of religious instruction, ap- pealing very directly to the individual woman.
 Her subject will be Old Testament characters, and she began her series with a study of Adam and Eve and the provi- sion God made for them in the Garden of Eden.
 Miss Blodgett said that owing to the different environment, the different eon- ditions under which the people in the Old Testament lived we were apt to for get that they were flesh and blood people, and lived and suffered, had sue cesses, then failures, just as are the con ditions governing our own lives. She be- gan her talk by an appeal for her hear CTS to feel a personal sympathy in the lives of these people, since a close study of them revealed a mirror in which our own lives were reflected.
 She urged on the part of every woman present personal and definite prayer that the Holy Spirit should guide them to the truth.
 Miss Blodgctt said she would not touch upon the controverte ted points in the crea- tion of Adam and Eve, and she discussed first the aesthetic, the intellectual and the physical nature of Adam, each of which, she said, God desired to satisfy.
 She dwelt upon the lavish provision God made in creating tho Garden of Eden, hi,o drew many beautiful lessons which proved what she called the aes- thetic taste of God.

 Calls On Secretary Hay.

Washington. Nov 4-Senor Concha, the Hay at the state department today by appointment to take up the subject of treaty between the United States and Colombia. conferring the necessary rights on the United States for the construction of a canal across the isthmus. The in- terview lasted about half an hour and the preliminary steps toward negotiating a treaty were taken. It is indicated from what can be learned at the legation that Mir. Concha has resumed negotiations of his own initiative. though he expects special instructions on certain points in- voIved.
 The minister submitted a definite prop osition. which is in the nature of an an swer to the treaty proposed by the United States Secretary Hay will take no fur ther steps until the president returns to Washington and has had an opportunity to consider this last proposition. The details of the Colombian proposition are withheld. The one important fact de- veloped. however, is that 1t Is not ob- noxious to the spirit of the Spooner law, and therefore the officials felt warranted in the statement if there were any diffi- culties in the way they were not legal fin character This is taken to mean that the main issue remaining to be settled Is che of price. The Colombian govern ment wants s10.0OO000 instead of s70O0,O0o proposed by the United States, besides different arrangement for the annual pay ment It was believed that this differ ence is not large enough to serously re- tard the close of negotiations.
