pointed out that the magnitude of the
scheme required mature consideration.
mo international parliament" the count
said, has any chance of acceptance by
European nations II It interferes with the
principle of their sovereignty and independ-
ence. Therefore II is necessary to examine
the membership of the powers and the
scope OF action of the proposed interna-
tonal parliament and reconcile II with the
independence OF the parliaments of the va
rious powers
THE American idea of an international
parliament to precisely define international
law is grand and bold movement charac-
teristic Of American initiative. but Amer
lean boldness must be combined with Euro
pean caution. Europe halls American par
ticipation In the world 3 work II gives US
accession to the marvellous material
strength and energy OF the United States
but We ask the Americans to consider the
present state OF Europe and the possibility
OF entanglements and to defer the project
until a committee of international special
lists can maturely study II"

SUIT BEGAN AGAINST ROAD.
SANTA FE DECLARED TO HAVE
GIVEN REBATES.
Company Alleged to Have Violated
Injunction-Co Contempt Pro-
ceedings Started.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 3.-Contempt
proceedings against the Atchison.. To-
peka q Santa Fe Railway company,
charging that company with being
guilty OF the violation of an injunction,
issued at Kansas City by Judge John
+. Phillips on March "A, 1902, restrain
ing the road from giving rebates, was
filed in the United States district court
here Saturday at the instigation of
Milton d. Purdy, of Washington, D. c..
assistant attorney general, who came
here recently at the direction Of the
attorney general to file the suit UPON
behalf of the government
Although Judge Philips restraining
order, issued three years ago, was di-
rected against seven other railroad
companies besides the Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fe, the suit filed Satur-
day is solely against the latter road.
The other railways enjoined previously
by Judge Philips were the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy; Chicago & Alton,
Missouri Pacific, Wabash, Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul; Chicago, Rock Is
land & Pacific, and the Chicago Great
Western. A similar order was issued
by Judge Grosscup in Chicago on
March rs, 1902, against six other roads.
The suit filed Saturday at the insti-
cation of the federal government re-
cites that the Santa Fe railway up to
the time the injunction was granted,
had been engaged in the practice of
granting unlawful rebates and prefer
entail rates and facilities to certain
favored shippers whose names were to
the compliments unknown, on traffic in
packing house products, dressed meats,
grain and the products of grain which
were not granted to the public gener-
ally, and that the Santa Fe railway had
also been granting unlawful rebates
and preferential rates and facilities to
certain other favored shippers.

BLINDS AND ROBS BOY.
Bank Messenger Loses 81, 525 in
Boldest Robbery Ever Carried
Out in Chicago.

Chicago, July 3-"Don'' Beemy, a
16-year-old messenger employed by the
grain and stock firm, Bartlett, Frazier
& Darlington, was the victim Saturday
of one of the most daring hold-ups ever
perpetrated in the heart of the down
town business district While the mes
senger boy was on the way from the
Corn Exchange national bank in the
Rookery building to his Office with
money to pay off employees, amounting
to $1,525, he was waylaid by high
way robber, who threw a handful of
black pepper into the boys face. While
the victim was staggering blindly about
the street the robber seized the money,
fled and escaped in the crowded
streets.
The victim was picked up by sympa-
thizing citizens, who had not had time
to realize what had happened. He was
carried to the Office of DR.. G. Pruyn
Springfield in the Western Union build
ing, where his eyes were bathed On
coming from the bank with the cash a
passerby hurled pepper into the boys
eyes. AS the pepper began to burn his
eyes the boy shrieked in an agony of
pain and the robber rushed toward
him. In a twinkling he had torn open
the boys coat and drew from it 81, 525
in bills, overlooking the change which
Beemy carried in the outside pocket.
In an instant he was gone.
