RATE WAR IN THE EAST.

Chicago, ILL.,. July 24.-(Special.)-
The Pennsylvania railroad company
put into effect today over the Pan
handle line a rate of SIG first class
and $15 second class from Chicago to
New York 1t is expected that the
Baltimore and Ohio will follow the
example of the Pennsylvania with the
result that every railroad east of Chi
cago and st. Louis will be involved
in the rate war growing out Of the
adoption of differential rates by the
Michigan Central railroad. AS all the
other differential lines now have
rate to New York 50 less than the
s1s rate of the Michigan Central that
road has practically gained nothing
by the award of the board of arbl-
traitors of differential rates to it. 1t
will not abandon the differential for
which it made such hard fight, and
must therefore make another reduc-
ton of 81 in it's rate to New York
and corresponding reductions to 10Th
er eastern points. The Grand Trunk
and Erie roads declare that if the
Michigan Central meets their SIG rate
first class to New York they will i'm
mediately reduce the rate to $14. All
the other different lines will be fore
e1 to do So

Dr.. Browning at Y. M. c. A.

DR.. W. H. Browning delivered the
address at the Y. M, c. A. Sunday
afternoon at 8 o'clock. His subject
was: "As Water Is the Source OF
All Organic Life. So Is Christ the
Source of All Spiritual Life" Dr.
Browning said that in nature there
were two great bodies. dissimilar to
each other, inorganic and organic
life.
Between these was a great chasm,
the Mediator standing between the
inorganic and the organic, and
through this Mediator they must be
brought into conjunction. one with
the other.
He Illustrated how ii Was impossi-
bic for a grain of seed planted in the
ground to grow and live without
water
So it was with us, there We're two
great spiritual powers, God and man.
God can not force a man to accept a
proposition without the consent of
man. He has given man a will to do
as he chooses.
Dr. Browning spoke of the oppo-
sites, love and enmity, and named
Christ as the Mediator.
The discourse was an able one
throughout, and those who heard it
enjoyed a treat.

EVERYTHING WAS A LOSS

A dispatch to the Walter C1tter
company in this city Mcnflay morning
stated that the magnificent building
and plant Of the Arkansas Democrat
at Little Rock had been completely
destroyed by fire Sunday night. The
fire occurred about s o'clock at night
and was under good headway before
il was dicovered. The fire depart
ment was wholly unable to cope with
the flames. and the building was raz-
Cd TO the foundations, everything be-
ing destroyed. The cause of the fire
is unknown. One man, an employa
Of the company, was burned to death
His name was not learned.
The Arkansas Democrat building
was one of the handsomest in Little
Rock, and had hut recently been COM
rleted. 1t was erected especially for
the printing plant of the Democrat
Publishing company. and in point of
convenience was one of the best in
this section Of the country. Tt was
fitted from skylight to basement with
the latest and most improved print
ing machinery all of which went UP
in the flames. The amount Of insur-
ance was not ascertained, but is said
to be about $4,000. No ether build
ing was injured by the fire, the fira
department confining the work of do
struction to the one building in which
it originated.
