the Favorite for the Individ-
ual Championship.

met A. Lampert Of South Side, and the
former was conceded a victory. On form
Thompson outclassed all the other men in
the tournament. The other ma tch in the

matches S. Thompson of Central fur
nished the first surprise by defeating
Larkin of Mechanic Arts, and Potter of
the East Side gave Rhodes also of Me-
chanic Arts, hard rub, Rhodes winning
two sets, 6-5, 6-5. Telford Thompson put
Rhodes out In the second round, after the
prettiest and fastest match Of the day.

were only touching the outside of the
work, and that, together with consecrated
men and women, IS needed consecrated
money. His address was enthusiastically
received.
Miss Bristol told of the need of work in
Mexico. An old Minneapolis pastor then
took the platform, the Rev. MIR. Sandell,
who has since been connected with the
Swedish division of the Chicago divinity
school. He, too, repeated the call for
money and dwelt on the necessity Of edu-
cation before going to foreign fields.

Governor Van SAINT Urges Prompt colIec-.
ton and Transmission OF Relief.
Governor Van SAINT has issued the fol-
lowing statement urging contributions
toward the fund for the Kansas flood
sufferers:
81 am advised that on account Of the
recent great floods in the state of kan
sas much damage has been done to prop
erty and great loss and suffering brought
to the people Of that state. Scores of lives
have been lost and thousands have been
rendered homeless and destitute. Assist
ance is imperative, and prompt aid to
relieve the distress is sought from every
state in the union. A generous hand
should at once be extended by the people
of Minnesota to alleviate as far as pos
sible, the unfortunate condition of the
people Of our sister state.
II hence recommend that the matter Of
raising funds for the purpose indicated
be vigorously taken up by the public
officers in each city, town and village of
our state and that all moneys as soon as
collected be RENTED either. to Wallace
G. Nye, secretary Of the Minneapolis

VETOED BY HAYNES
The Mayor Says the Jefferson Street
Sewer Rebate Was
IIyIedaj

Mayor Haynes has plugged up one of the holes
in the revolving fund opened by the city council
and incidentally gives the aldermen a smart
rap over the fingers. lie has vetoed the council
resolution ordering rebate for the sewer in JEFF
ferson street from Fourth avenue NE to Broad
way in excess of $150 per front foot of abutting
property. In his veto measure Mayor Haynes
says:
.''Our city charter provides in effect that the
the actual cost thereof, not exceeding, however,
the estimated cost Of a sewer two feet in
diameter.
.'The records in the office of the city engineer
shows that the Jefferson street sewer, above
mentioned, consisted Of three blocks, and that
the actual cost of the same varied from S19O
to $2.1O per foot.
Therefore the effect Of said resolution would
be to wholly relieve the abutting property of
about one-ffth of the special tax for which 1t Ia
legally assessible to my mind, your honorable
body might with equal propriety refund the en-.
tire cost of the improvement in question. For
the reasons above assigned said resolution seems
to me to be clearly Illegal

up. ANSWERS COMPLAINT
Company Denies That Its Agreement
With Peavey & Co. Is
Illegal.
From The Journal Bureau, Room -, Post Build
ing, Washington,


ing, Washington,
Washington June s.-The Union Pacific has
filed answer to the complaint Of the inter-
state commerce commission alleging discrimina.
ton in favor of the Kansas City branch Of
Peavey s. Go. in the handling of grain at Kansas
City or Omaha. under contract between the
parties
1t is admitted that there is contract be-
tween the railroad and Peavey & Co. by
which the latter gets and quarter cents
per hundred pounds for all grain passing thru
its elevators at the places named, but 1t is
claimed that this arrangement was made for
convenience in handling and to save the COM
pany the expense of maintaining its own ele-
vators at these places.
A denial is made that the allowance is ex-
cessive or greater than similar charges for like
service at other points. The company laims
also that such allowance is not in violation
Of the interstate commerce act, and that it does
not subject shippers other than Peavey Co.
to relatively unreasonable and unjust discrin-
nation.
It denies that the agreement gives Peavey &
Company an undue advantage, that 1t enables
| Peavey & Company to obtain transportation Of
established and shown in the tariff of the rail-
road company.
| No date has been set for the hearing of the
case, but it will probably be held in the fall
w. w. Iernane.

SHOUT FOR THE BARGE CANAL.
Cooper Union Meeting to Help Its Cause
With City Voters.

The Canal Association Of Greater New
York held mass meeting last night in
Cooper Union to help the canal campaign
along Among the speakers were Henry
r. Hebert. eS-Mayor Schieren of Brooklyn,
Gen. Stewart l.. Woodford William F.
King, Senator Tom Grady and Bird s.
Coler, The theme OF all the speakers was
the canal would bring back" to New York
Its supremacy as the first port of the country
by keeping railroad freights down.
Assemblyman Bostwick, who introduced
the canal bill, said In three minute speech
that the criticism against the bill on the
ground of cost was ur Justified
Although the bill appropra tes Sl0i 900, :
900 for the project let me tell you, gentlemen
that it will not cost that much: it is believe
that the cost can be kept down to So, 900, :
900, he said
Mr.. Coler was inclined to doubt that the
vote next Tuesday would be in favor Of the
canal.
Il know something about how votes are
counted up State after 10 o'clock at night "
he said, and know also that the up State
people are opposed to giving to New York
anything that will tend to the betterment
of the city"
Incidentally Mr. Coer said, and he was
cheered by the canal supporters when he
said it, that as compared with the canal
issue the municipal fight between fusion
and Iammanv was "picayune and trivial"

THE HOMIE CASE CLOSED.
War Department Holds That Major Hun
ter's Investigation Was Not Impartial.

WASHINGTON, Oct 90.--Actlng Secretary
OF War Oliver disposed to-day Of the case
Of Lieut. Col. Howe and Major Hunter.
which attracted considerable interest last
spring, mainly through the fact that ale
cations OF cruelty to Filipinos made against
Major Howe were taken up and inves-
tigated by Lieut.. Gen. Miles during his
visit to the Philippines. Major Hunter,
who was on bad terms with Major Howe,
was ordered by Gen. Miles TO conduct the
lnvesti tigaton, and his report resulted IN
Secretary Root ordering further investi-
cation by a board Of three officers. Brig
Cen Francis Moore, Lieut.. Col. 8. R.Whitall
Twenty-seventh Infantry, and ieut.-SoI
F. X. Ward First Cavalry.
The board WAS directed by Secretary
Root to answer these questions: How
much truth is there in the aftidavits secured
by Major Hunter discriminating Major
Howe. and was the investigation made by
Major Hunter an impartial investigation
in accordance with the order under which
he acted? 1t answered as follows:
First--That these afldayts are true In 30
far AS they state that native prisoners were
whipped and IN some cases very severely
hP but that no dsa the
does not believe any prisoner died from that
cause. A.
SeCond-lhe evidence oelQTe tne ooaLu
shwos that Major Hunter. ut the time OF max,
ing the investigation, was unfrienGly 10 ana
had spoken bttcrlv OF Lieut.. Col Howe. hut
there Is nothing to show that the investigation
was not strictly impartial and in accordance
with the order under which he acted.
In his review of the findings and evidence,
Gen. Davis the Judge Advocate General,
took issue with the board in its answer
to second quest ion, and the Acting Secretary
disposed OF the case to-day by following
Gen. Davis's recommendations as follows:
"The findings Of the board as to the first
of the foregoing heads of inquiry, are ap..
proved; those under the second head Of
inquiry are disproved as contradictory in
terms and not warranted by the testimony
elected by the board during the progress
of its invest igation."
In other words the Department holds
that Major Hunter was biassed by personal
feeling in condemning Lieut.. Col. Howze
