New York. Feb. 24.-Appearances sug-
gest that various western and transcon-
tinental lines interested in colonist traffic.
through failure to adopt a uniform agree
ment on the subject. are getting them
selves into a position that may lead to
open warfare. They certainly are not
acting in entire harmony, and 1t looks
as though certain combinations were
being attempted with view to skim
ming the milk Of the business without
regard to rates. A circular has been is
sued that shows Independent action upon
the part of some roads. 1t charged that
prevailing conditions are due to the
north Pacific coast lines insisting on
S25 rate to Montana and Washington
points.
Naturally the Union Pacific saw that
this would necessitate equally low rates
Via the Oregon Short Line for its own
protection and in this 1t has been sus-
tanned by other western roads. Its re-
duced rates apply not only to Portland.
but also Puget sound points in addition
to other cities tributary to the Great
Northern, which has retaliated by OK
tending its reductions to apply to all
points on the Southern Pacific between
Portland and Ashland.
While holders Of tickets sold at low
rates are not to be accorded the privilege
of riding In frst-class sleeping cars, this
will not keep frst-class passengers from
taking advantage Of the opportunity tor
cheap travelling. and II a general reduo-
ton in first class rates to the Pacific
coast follows, it will be a serious matter
for all the lines involved and the logical
consequence of failure to get together.

McLaurin, after Saturdays sensational

his second and convey the challenge to
Senator Tillman. Pritchard told Nc
Laurin he was making a fool OF himself
and prevailed OH him to tear up the chal-
lenge.
Those here who are familiar with the
two men say another personal encounter
is inevitable. AS soon as they meet at a
place where allegations are made by one
or the other it is expected the senators
will come together and fists will not be

tremendously called to order in the SEN

about to say that if there was a repeti-
ton of the charge which Tillman had pre-
ferred against. him he would resort tc
means other than mere denial or the use
OF his fists to protect his honor At any
rate this is the way McLaurin feels. anc
be is South Carolinan who believes the
last resort in every quarrel is gun or :
knife, he will doubtless be prepared tt

the bribery charges. Senator Tillman!
friends believe he will be in state 0
preparedness also.

that the fued can end only in the death o
one or both of the senators. Both ar

STATE WILL GO AHEAD
Litigation in Another Form VIII r.
Vigorously Pushed.

Litig alton in Another Form VIII BE
Vigorously Pushed.
The state authorities are somewhat dis
appointed but not at all daunted by the
courts decision. The stand taken by At
torney General Knox is assurance that the
remedies open in the federal courts will
be exhausted. The states suit will in all
probability be brought in the state dis
trict court at St. Paul or Minneapolis. A
definite line Of action will not be de-
termined until the decision of the SUI
preme court has been examined. Gov
ernor Van SAINT said this afternoon:
ct cannot be stated positively what
will be the method of procedure until the
text OF the decision of the supreme court
IS known. The state will proceed in
isome form at once and exhaust every
means III its power to, enforce its laws
and protect it's rights"
Attorney General Douglas also said that
he could make no statement until he had
examined the text Of the decision. The
. court may have denied jurisdiction on
one Of two grounds said Mr.. Douglas,
"either on the ground that the statute
violated as a penal statute or on the
ground Of non-joinder of parties. II the
first ground is taken, the action will be
brought in the states courts. If the Sec
ond ground was taken, it may be brough;
in either the state court or the federal
court Of this district. 1t may come either
| in the form of a quo warranto or an in
! junction. The people may be sure, how
| ever, that their rights will be protected
and the federal courts will assume turis-
diction in the suit to be brought by At
| torney General Knox"
