his stomach. The man claims that IL
has been there many years, and was
laughed at by physicians to whom he
told his symptoms and belief, which
was verified by the skiagraph picture
developed from an X-ray examination.

MANY DEAD AND WOUNDED.
Colombian Government Troops Fight
- for Several Hours. ~


New York, Jan. 17.-News Of a seri-
GUS mistake in which a force Of gov
ernment troops fought another body
of government soldiers, thinking it
was composed of Colombian revolu-
tionists, has been brought to Colon,
Colombia, by the Colombian warship
General Pinzon, cables the correspond
ent of The Herald at that place.
The mistake happened in the vicin-
fly of Dibullo, near Rio Hacha, and it
resulted in 18 men being killed and 63
wounded.
Captain Merritt of the General Pin
zon says that the vessel landed 400
men in Dibullo to drive back the in
surgents. The revolutionists retreated
toward Rio Hacha when the govern
ment force divided into two bodies in
order to capture the rebels. One Of
these met the rebels and after sharp
engagement the insurgents retreated.
The other body OF government troops
then came up, having heard the firing,
and the mistake followed. Thinkn.., (,
that it was opposed by rebels. each
force started firing. The fight was
kept up for four hours, when General
Folacio discovered the mistake and
stopped the battle, which had been
evenly contested.
The steamship Libertador, formerly
the Banrigh, which recently took the
Matos expedition to Venezuela from
Martinique, will soon enter the service
Of the Colombian government.

Philippine Bill CHANGED
Senate Committee Disposes Of the
House Philippine Customs Tariff
Measure.
Important Amendment Made by the
Senate Affecting Rates of Duty
to be Charged.
Seventy Five Per Cent of Dingley
Tariff Rates Less Export Duty
from the Island.

washington, Jan. 1.-THE senate
committee on the Philippine islands
had under consideration the house
Philippine tariff bill, but upon the re-
quest of the Democratic members
for more time adjourned until next
Monday without reporting the bill.
All the amendments suggested by
the Republican members were adopted.
The most important of these amend
ments reduces to the extent of 25
per cent the rate of duty collected up
on Philippine articles coming into the
United States and also provides for
further reduction equivalent to the
export duty charged on such articles
when shipped from the Philippines.
The 25 per cent reduction is accom-
plished by providing for the payment
of Is per cent of the duty required by
the Dingley tariff act. The provision
concerning the export duty is as fol-
lows:
t''The rates of duty which were re-
quired heretofore to be levied and col
lected upon products Of the Philippine
| archipelago coming into the United
| States shall be less any duty or taxes
| levied or collected therein upon the
expectation thereof from the Philip
pine archipelago as provided by the
act of the United States commission
under such rules and regulations as
the secretary of the treasury may pre-
scribe.'' -,
| Another amendment permits the en-
p1oyment of foreign vessels in the
inter-island traffic as well as in the
traffic between the United States and
the islands.
Still another amendment strikes out
the house provision authorizing the
Withholding of the cost of collecting
Philippine taxes and duties, thus re-
quiring the gross amount instead of
the net amount to be deposited in the
| special Philippine fund.

ABOUT ALL MARKETED.
Movement Of North Dakota Grain Fall.
ina Off.


Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 1.-THE
movement Of grain from up-country
points has greatly relieved the con-
gestion which existed up to Jan. 1.
The supply of cars, while not yet equal
to the demand, has been sufficient to
remove all the surplus grain, so that
at present there is no trouble in taking
care of all receipts that are offered.
The elevators remain full.
It is estimated that about 80 per
cent Of the grain that will be mar
keted has already been disposed OF. A
considerable quantity remains in the
hands of the farmers, but it is antici-
pated that the demands for seed grain
will be much greater next spring than
usual. ''-'
The movement in fax is about
ended. The amount of flax retained on
hand for seed is far in excess of any
previous year. The indications are
that the acreage sown to fax next
spring will be greater than ever before
known in North Dakota.

HAD MARROW ESCAPES.
Employees of the Union Ticket Station
at Chjcaoo


Chicago, Jan. 17-Fire broke out in
the ticket Office Of the Union station
Adams and Canal streets, shortly be-
fore noon and for time threatened
the destruction Of the building. The
smoke and flames spread so rapidly
that 60 employees of the several roads
that make the station their Chicago
terminal had an exciting time to es-
cape suffocation. 4 ncmbe1 escaped
by jumping from a low window to the
top of a viaduct on the Adams street
side OF the building. Two men were
helped down ladders by firemel, but
no one was injured. Over $1,UOO,0OO
worth of unstamped tickets of the

which is the property of the Pennsyii.
vania lines, was damaged to the extent
of $4,000. The annual passenger
statements of all the roads were de-
stroyed and will be delayed two weeks.

TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS.
New System Of Electric Signals to Be
Tested,

Rockford. Ills, Jan. 17.-The Chi
cago and Eastern Illinois railroad is
preparing to install system of elec-
trio signals designed to prevent acci-
dents.
The new device displays a signal in
the cab of the locomotive. The track
is wired in blocks, the rail being used
as the conductor. When there is but
one train in block the signal in the
cab will burn white. Should another
train touch the same block the light is
instantly changed to red, which means
danger. The signal is not affected by
snow or sleet or by weather of any
kind and it will do it's work among a
maze of switches and crossings as vel.
as on straight single track.

MONEY FOR INDIANS
Michigan Reds to Be Paid for Chicago
Lands,

Hartford, Mich, Jan. 17.-The mem
bers of the Pokagon band of Potta-
wattomie Indians have been notified
by their secretary, J. Cushway, that
Chicago men will be at Dowagiac this
week to pay each of them the first S100
on the recent lake front agreement.
This will mean a great deal to the In
dians, as each child will draw this sum
as well as the older members and the
winter is always hard on the Indians,
as they are not very strong people.
The agreement referred to is a pur.
chase of so-called equities of the In.
dams in a large tract of land on the
lake front at and near Chicago.

Minneapolis, Jan. 1.-THE market
opened this morning about steady with
some nervousness. The outside re-
summed their buying on the dip of about
agc, which induced short covering. The
pressure against the market for the
last few days is at least temporarily
removed. Gables, while not strong,
are firm. Argentine shipped but 96,-

Corn was ready to respond to any
support and after a steady opening

tinue to diminish without bringing in
any of contract quality. A decline
of about five cents should induce buy
ing for investment which will improve
with the hardening of values. Clear
ances are much heavier at 164 900
bushels. Should rains or snow be-
& come very heavy receipts would fall
off sharply and stimulate not only the
cash but speculative demand. Oats
are without special feature. They
would keep in line with the general
market until a good short interest pre-
walls when advance of Importance is
most probable. Y, .5.4
Provisions started in rather tame
but upon covering by shorts were soon
given q quick up turn. Receipts were
very liberal 33 900 hogs but prices at

alton in pork the past two days has
relieved the market of quite heavy

up, expecting a still further decline.
I The position remains very favorable to
the long side, especially on any set
