FOR EXPORT FLOUR
TRANSPORTATION Charges to BE Made
the Same as for
Wheat.

CHICAGO. May 6.-The Chicago. Mil
waukee & st. Paul road has placed export
flour on a level with wheat in the matter of
transportation charges.
This action, according to the Record
Herald, which makes the announcement,
will be followed by other western lines
with similar rates. and means a saving Of
millions to the millers Of the northwest.
For years the millers have vigorously
contended thai II the rates were made the
same on wheat and -four grain would not
be taken from the United States, but would
be made into -four here and then shipped
for export. Strong appeals for relief have
recently been made to President Roosevelt
direct, to the congressional committees and
to the Interstate Commerce commission.
The rate from St. Paul and Minnea polls,
both on -four and export grain, is now 20h
cents, formerly 1t was % cents on -four.
The rate Of 2Oh cents applies to part lake
and part rail shipments. From st. Paul
the rate on flour for export by all-rail is
% cents and on grain 15h cents.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-N. e. Young,

tracts whatever with ball players and that
Players Wolverton, Ortiz, Townsend and

Philadelphia base ball club; that the Ma
tional league has no intention to interfere

OLD RATES TO Be RESTORED
Schedules on Dressed Beef and Live Stock
Readjusted by Traffic Men,
FIVE CENT ADVANCE ON BOTH CLASSES
Action of Western Executive OmciaIr
settles Long Controversy over
Shipments from Missouri
River to Chicago.

CHICAGO. May 6.-Freight rates on
dressed beef and live beeves from Mis-
souri, river points are to be restored after
July l to what they we're prior to June
30, 1901. This will mean an advance on
each class Of freight Of about 5 cents.
TIL meeting Of the executive officers Of
the western roads here today had the
matter under consideration and the result
was the agreement to restore former
charges. The trouble over the rates on
beef from the Missouri river to Chicago
and the seaboard has been one Of long
standing. The restoration will affect the
livestock shipped to the Chicago stock
yards from the ranges west Of the river,
also the products Of the packing houses
situated on the river.
The published tariff now In effect makes
the rate on packing house products from
the Missouri river to Chicago 23z cents.
The Chicago rate was 1871 cents and this
last became the published tariff rate after
the inquiry OF the Interstate Commerce
commission into alleged determinations
last February. :
The rates for live beeves, both for
through shipment from Missouri river
points and for shipment from the river to
Chicago, are to be made the same as the
rates for the dressed beef, so that While
the local livestock exchange will be bene-
fitted, the roads will be benefited more.

Babylonian life are not rare, but hitherto
no writer of fiction has ventured beyond
the shallow depths OF the classic legends

varied enough for either history or romance.
A new writer, Josiah NJ. Ward, is to
strike out into deeper water, and take his
readers back to the times Of Nebuchadnez-
Ear and the last days OF Nineveh. The
title Of his book. Come With Me Into Baby

OKLAHOMA CITY. okl. May 6.-It is
now known that six lives we're lost in the
cloudburst at Foss, on the Choctaw & Okla
homa railroad. Fifteen houses were car

had a thrilling race to escape the flood that

MRS. HUTCHINSON.
MRS. MORGAN AND son.
MAN. name unknown.
Foss was a town Of 500 people. II was
built mostly on high ground. but extended
into the valley. The cloudburst struck
Turkey creek some distance from Foss at
4 o'clock in the afternoon, raising that
stream and the Washita river to a depth
Of nearly ten feet. The flood reached Foss
at $50 o'clock, coming with such sudden
ness that the people in the valley could
not reach high ground.
From Elk City to Foss the Choctaw rail-
way follows Turkey creek for a distance of
sixteen miles. Below Foss the creek crosses
under the Choctaw tracks and empties into
the Washita. which the Choctaw crosses
further east. The train crew saw the wall
Of water descending the creek and began a
race for the bridge across the Washita
The train barely got into Foss in time,
leaving ten minutes later, or just ten min
utes before the bridge over Turkey creek
was swept away. A few minute later the
bridge over the Washita was washed out.
The train finally reached Weathertord,
after encountering numerous bad places in
the track, and was compelled to remain
there because OF washouts ahead.
Relief has been sent TO Foss from Okla

Roman Biznet.' by Georgia Wood Pang-
born, is a study in heredity. The scene is
laid in upper New York state, the early
home of Mrs. Pangborn. Roman Biznet.
the hero of this striking novel, is the son
of a French Canadian halfbreed and grand
son Of a German musician. These varied
strains of inheritance make him a most
complex character. From his Indian grand
mother he draws traits which form a gro
tesque contrast to his German passion for
music and strange gift for playing the
cello. The keen interest of the novel
springs from the intermingling Of this gift
for playing, which is in grotesque contrast
to the Indian strains in his nature. The
novel is distinctive in style and in plot.

d. Appleton & Co. have published a new
and timely book by DR.. James X. Hosmer,
entitled The History of the Louisiana
Purchase" His story Of the purchase Of
Louisiana, from the inception Of French .n-
huence on this continent to the present de-
velopment OF the great states built up
within tho confines OF the original purchase,
forms a most picturesque and striking mar
rative. He treats the changes in the own
ership Of the territory from France to
Spain, and again to France, and he develops
fully the purposes and acts Of Jefferson
and the American commissioner in Paris.
There has been no account Of the Louisiana
purchase, which is so popular and constant
in its interest. and the authoritative char
acter OF the historians work renders the
volume Indispensable for all who wish to
gain a thorough knowledge Of the personal
elements and the historic Significance Of Its
acquisition. While written for both younger
and older readers. II provides a book es-
peeially needed at the present moment by
young Americans.
