The rebels at Moscow are still lighting

area Of eight miles the air is torn by
the screech OF machine guns, the whis-
tie of bullets and the booming of shrap-
mel The battle was at its hottest to-
ward midnight Wednesday.
Meantime, owing to heavy losses Of

fighting the revolutiOnaries are more
numerous than ever.

Admiral Sands Troubled.

Rear Admiral Sands, superintendent
of the Academy, is said 10 feel keenly
this latest trouble, which, by some. is
regarded as a reflection on the admiral s
management. ANY criticism Of this
character is unjust to the admiral. for
in his testimony before the Meriwether
court-martiaI he made 1T clear that
hazing of such brutal kind as inflicted
by Coffin on Kimbrough should be pun
ished by instant dismissal.
The failure on the part OF Midship-
man Warren A. Van Derveer. of the sec
ond class, to report Coffin when the for
mer was on duty at the time is consid-
cred by some of the officials as a much
more serious violation OF the Academy
rules than the act of hazing- Van Der

Half Fare Rates to MINI. State Fair.
There having been some misleading
statements regarding half fare rates
to the Minnesota state fair. the exact
situation should be made plain to the
people of Northwest. All lines in the
Western Passenger Association have
already granted the half fare rate.
This includes the Chicago, Milwaukee
q st. Paul; the ''Northwestern'' and
Omaha; the Great Western; the Min
neapolis g. St. st. Louis; the Burling-
ton and the Wisconsin Central. It
will be seen from this that half rates
have actually been announced and are
assured for all southern and central
Minnesota, northern Iowa, eastern
South Dakota and western Wisconsin.
The Northern Pacific, Great North
ern and $500" lines have held up the
announcement of half rates pending
arrangements for protecting them.
selves against the scalping of state
fair tickets; but there is not the least
question that these roads will grant
the rate as usual and that the official
announcement will be made in short
time-pcrhaps before these lines reach
the reader. The people of the North
west need have no fear that they will
not get the usual half fare rate to the
Minnesota state fair.

Hay.

Minneapol,s.-Scarcity of hay may
be felt this fall as a result of the flood
ing of the low lands along the Missis-
sippi river. Thousands of acres of
good meadow land lie along the banks
of the river below the Twin Cities and
along the headwaters. The July flood
will make it impossible to get crop
from these, as the river has been high
for so long that the growing grass has
been converted into seaweed.
Coming so late in the season, the
second crop will be light. The first
crop, usually made in the latter part
of June or first of July, is an import
ant part of the Northwestern supply.
With this cut off, the price of hay
grown on the higher grounds probably
will be much higher than it has been
within recent years Farmers near the
Twin Cities who are fortunate enough
to have good hay crops are expecting
higher prices than those now pre-
vailing

BLACKMAR
IS STRICKEN,
COMMANDMENTS OF THE
GRAND ARMY SUDDENLY
PASSES AWAY.
He Served Under Custer. Was Ad-

sets Under Three Different Ad-
ministrations. ...

Boise, Idaho, July 17.-Gen. w. w.
Blackmar, commander-in-chief of the
G. A. R., died yesterday of intestinal
nephritis. His wife was with hi m dur
ing his illness. The body will be en-
balmed and taken to the home of the
family at Boston.
The general arrived here on July 10
on a tour in which he intended to visit
Grand Army posts throughout the
Northwest He was i'll when he ar
rived, and gradually failed, but the
seriousness of his condition was kept
from the public at the request of his
wife,
Gen. Blackmar was born on July 25,
1s41, at Bristol, Pa. He enlisted in
the Fifteenth Pennsylvania cavalry.
and subsequently joined the First
West Virginia. He served with dis
tinction throughout the war, and at
Five Forks was promoted on the field
by Gen. Custer to the rank of captain.
Throughout three administrations,
those of Governors Long, Talbot and
Rice, he was judge advocate general of
Massachusetts, At the last national
encampment of the G. A. R. he was
elected ommander-in-c chief
Boston, Mass, July 17.-Except to
two or three officials of the Grand Ar
N.Y. the news of the death of Gen.
Blackmar was received with great
surprise in this city. The home of
Gen. Blackmar was in the city and
since his elevation to the position of
commander-in-chief, the headquarters
of the organization have been here.
Gen. Blackmar is succeeded by John
R. King of Washington, senior vice
commander.
Two weeks ago the commander-in-
chief broke down and was ordered to
his bed in his simmer home at Hing
ham by his physicians. At this time
his indisposition, was regarded as
slight On July Gen. Blackmar's
condition had apparently improved
and it was decided to permit him to
continue his visits to Western depart
ments which he had begun early in
the spring.
