RATE WAR LOOMS UP
Meeting of Passenger Officials to Be
Held Thursday to Decide-Threats
Already Being Made if Changes Arc
Adopted - Roads Have Different

Chicago, July 2S.-Indications are
that w. A. Thrall's mileageticket will be
adopted by the western railroads which
have declared their intention of using a
ticket good on trains instead Of the
present credential system. Passenger
officials of the western roads meet next
Thursday to decide on the form of tick
let to be used and the date when it will
be placed on sale.
1t is likely that Sept. | will be named
as the date. but it is not a certainty
that an Interchangeable mileage ticket
good on trains will ever be used by a
large number of railroads. The Rock
Island Frisco and Gould systems have
announced their intention OF maintain
ing the credential system, regardless of
the action of other roads. In addition,
the Rock Island has declared that. if
any combination of western lines uses a
mileage ticket good on trains. that COM
pany will extend the credentfal system
10 Ell Paso and Denver. This would
practically mean 2-cent-a- mile rate
in trans Mississippi territory, and
would affect rates between here and
the Pacific coast.
The only lines which have voted to
adopt an Interchangeable mileage tick
ct good on trains are the Northwest
ern, st. Paul, Burlington. Wisconsin
Central. Illinois Central and Great
Western. The general passenger agent
of the Great Western voted in favor OF
the new ticket, subject to the approval
of the executive officers of the COM
pany. Whether they have given their
approval Is not yet known.
1t seems certain that two Inter-
changeable mileage systems will lead
to the biggest kind Of passenger rate
war in western territory. The greatest
losses will be incurred IN the territory
west of the Missouri river.

New York. July 2s.-Altho the open

market showed a hesitating tone In the
early dealings. Nevertheless there was
more good buying of high priced rail-
way shares, tho in moderate amounts.
A few htgh-grade industrials exhibited
marked firmness. The sentiment is in
creasingly cheerful. The absence of
any failure announcements helped to
create a better feeling. Short covering
was again extensive. Prices yielded

New York, July 1S.-An active SELL

and cost the market practically all of

keene See. No Danger.

New York, July 2S.--In connection
with the failures in, Wall street, James
r. Keene, whose SON in-laws house,
T. j. Taylor & Co., was among those
to suspend, is quoted by the Herald
as follows, in an interview In his coun-
try home in Cedar Hurst:
1T is a very extraordinary situation
and for some reason or other the pub
lie refuses to buy. The firm has been
out of the stock market for two or
three months and its reappe!arance in
Wall street will be welcome"
DO you think that the general pros
perity is likely to be affected by the
serious decline in stocks?" was asked.
Il don't see why it should be-" Mr.
Keene replied. Business is good.
crops are excellent and gross earnings
of railroads are larger than they We're
last year. / have no doubt that their
net earnings will be correspondingly
large. In spite of all this people have
no confidence. They are appalled, st Ihe
tremendous decline that has taken
place. the explanation for which had
not been reasoned out by them.
The extremity of the danger should
bring relief from a concert of the iinan
cial and railroad interests to stop a
further decline, which must gather
force as it continues Perhaps the best
reason for the present situation has
been the absolute unwillingness Of the
public for some time to buy securities
II you have sellers and few buyers 1t ts
easy to predict the result
II believe over-capitalization and the
collapse Of three or four recently or
ganized trusts have paralyzed the buy
err. produced general fight and ter
ribie liquidation Of good securities to
protect bad ones. Despite this liqui-
dation, which has reduced the average
values of securities 35 per cent, bank
loans have not been reduced, nor has
the surplus reserve been materially in
creased.
1T would be natural to look for a
corresponding decrease In bank loans
in consequence This has not occurred
and 1 have not seen anyone yet who
has fathomed the reason for it. 1t may
be safely said that this singular re-
suit, SO contrary to all previous ex-
periences, has caused much anxiety
and produced grave apprehensions.
Explanation Of it may be possible
from people who understand the nitric
acies of the movement Of money ana

WILL NOT oulT THE RACE.
'LonaueviIle Says He Will Continue {
Vigorous Campaiqn.

DUBUQUE, July 2S.-Despite the fact
that the Dubuque Bar Association, OF
which he Is a member. will be arrayed
against him in his fight for the federal
Iiudgeship, j. C. Longueville announced
yesterday that under no circumstances
will he drop out of the race and insists
that he will continue to conduct Wig
orous campaign.
A meeting of the bar association VIII
be held this week. and it will no doubt
rescind its previous action in endorsing
the candidacy OF Lcngheville, as the
members declare that they were too
hasty in taking such a move. COM
mittee will then be appointed to call
on Mr. Longueville AMI lrge him to
withdraw in favor OF II. D. Reed, of
Cresco, and if he persists in his de-
termination to remain III the race the
association will likely make 1t as un-
pleasant for him as possible.
Senator Healy, Of Fort Dodge, is
gaining supporters among the MEM
bers of the Dubuque Bar Association.
Up to last week only one local attorney
was supporting his candidacy, j. j. Nc
Carthy, former president of the Iowa
state Bar Association, but Saturday
seven other members of the bar asso-
citation came out for him. However,
majority of them are democrats. and
Longueville's friends Gun not under
stand how they will have any influence
in the appointment.
1t is understood that Judge slliras'
successor may be named at any time
before November, when he retires. and
a majority Of the candidates have made
numerous visits to Dubuque to confer
with Senator Allison. 1t is the purpose

RELIANCE WILL DEFEND CUP.
New Boat Chosen and No More Trial
Races viii be Sailed.

Newport, r. L., July 2S.--After yes
terday's race between Reliance, consti-
tuition and Columbia, in which the for
mer boat again demonstrated her sup
eriority over the other boats. it was de-
cided to discontinue the trial races.
The committee of the New York
Yacht Club selected the Reliance as the
defender of the Americas cup. Messrs.
Morgan of Columbia, and Belmont of
Constitution, We're perfectly satisfied
with the choice of the committee. They
are both of the opinion that Reliance
Is the fastest of the three boats.
From the showing of the three boats
during the season the Reliance is fairly
entitled to be the defender. In every
race she has crossed the finish line
ahead and has lost but few events on
time allowance. 1t is probable the De-
fender will proceed to Bristol for a
thorough overhauling.

FRAUD CHARGED IN HONOLULU.
Federal Grand Jury Will Investigate

Honolulu, July 2s.--The federal grand
jury will investigate Clerk Solomon.
Meheule. and other officials of the
house of representatives, who are ac-
cused of destroying the vouchers for
the expenditures of the house during
the last two sessions. These expendi-
lures amounted to $4,000, far more
than the expenses of any session eN-
cept that Of two years ago. The white
members made an effort to have the
vouchers made public, but the natives
objected and voted the proposal down.
1t is said that the natives received
large sums on dummy vouchers. and
that thousands were wasted The fed
eral statutes contain severe penalties
for secreting or destroying vouchers.

MANcHuRlA WILL OPEN DOORS.
Ports to Be Opened to the Commerce

| of the World.
! Washington, July 2S.--All obstacles
to the opening of Manchurtan ports
to the commerce of the world have been
removed. Positive information to this
effect having been received by the
department of state, the commercial
treaty between the United States con-
tanning the provision for the opening
i of at least two Manchurian ports will
be signed in a short time by the COM
missioners now conducting negotia-
tions in China An official Of the state
department today said:
The question Of opening new To-
calitie.s to trade in Manchuria has been
| in substance satisfactorily arranged
with the Chinese government and
nothing remains to be settled but the
question of the date when these To-
calities shall be opened. This natur-
ally will be subsequent to the exchange
of notifications of the treaty IN which
the opening is agreed upon.
Chinese officials recently authorized
the statement that Russia WAS inter-
posing obstacles in the way OF opening
Manchurian ports, and sons OF the
officials here were of the opinion these
statements were true. This statement
attracted considerable attention at the
time, and consequently there was much
surprise when Secretary Hay short
time ago announced that he had writ
ten agreement with Russia In which
that government consented to the
opening of two Manchuriar ports
probably Mukden and Tatung-ka
Some little time will elapse before the
ports are opened, as 1t will lie neces-
sary for the senate to approve the
treaty before ratification can be eA.
