GEN. SUZUKI OF JAPAN
Speaks of Christianity in His Own
 Land.

Detroit, Sept. 29.-Intensely dramatic was the moment today when Surgeon General Suzuki of the Japanese navy, fresh from the battles of the Japan and Yellow seas declared with sheer ity before the railroad Y M C. 4. in ternational convention that he had been for twenty years a Christian Very proudly he added that his wife and five children shared his belief. Tears dimmed many eyes when the distin- guished Japanese surgeon told broken ly of the drowning of another child, his twelve year old daughter, just two days before he himself had been called into the thick of the recent fighting.
 He had not urged the question of re- ligiOn in his family, ne said, having trusted it to the guidance of God. His eldest son had been the first to become a convert, having been interested at first through an accidental visit to a Christian meeting while walking along the streets of Tokio. Next the wife had been converted through the influ- ence of her son, and all the family had followed in the steps of these two. Struggling to control his emotion. General Suzuki declared his faith in the Christian belief of the future life. saying of his little daughter. whom he mOurned, 'I believe she has gone to our own kingdom"

CAREER FIGHTING HARD
Explained Little Railroad Bond Deal
 Yesterday.

Chicago, Sept. 29.-The cross exam ination of Former Captain O. M. Car ter of the United States army. who is fighting to prevent the cOnfiscation of the $600,00 seized at the time of his arrest on the charge of defrauding the government was continued today be- fore special examiner Richard w. Wy man.
 The defendant has been on the wit ness stand continuously for six days but there is no physical indication of the ordeal Both sides are anxious tO complete the taking of testimony at the earliest moment, so the case may be referred to U. s. Circuit Judge Kohl saat for a decision without unnecessary delay. When the hearing was resum- ed Assistant U. s. Attorney General Irwin questioned the defendant regard ing seven Wabash railroad bonds pur- chased by Captain Carter and his father-in-l law, R. r. Westcott, in New York late in 1898, for $1O,325.
 The defendant said it was one of many purchases made by his father-in- law. They were in partnership in sev- eral deals In some cases the witness said he simply acted as agent of West colt. Later he made a full accounting to his father-inlaw and received re- ceipts for all money paid over.

ROW IN THE REIcHRATH.

Vienna, Sept. 29-There was a stormy meeting today of the lower house of the reichrath, while discussing the governments declaration of policy, the people in the galleries taking part in the uproar. Eventually the session was suspended until the galleries were cleared. The premier Baron Gautch VOn Frankenthurm, explained his de- claration regarding the revision of the basis laws of 1867. He said the re- vision could only relate to the treat ment of the joint affairs of the two halves of the monarchy, which from time to time must be regulated accord ing to analogous principles. The pre- mier expressed the conviction that 2 new form of co-existence between the two halves of the monarchy would eventually be found on the condition that both countries should retain the rights guaranteed by the laws and full liberty of decision. He did not doubt that the legitimate interests of the two halves of the monarchy would be safe guarded in such a manner that not only the two states but also the mon archy as a whole could benefit Dur ing the session there were frequent conflicts between socialists and anti semites which led to disturbances and clearing galleries.

President Ripley TeStifieS
 Before Commission
COMP PARISON OF COSTS
In the Transportation Of Livestock
 and Packing House PrOducts-Las- ter are Most Expensive Except Under Unusual and Peculiar Conditions.

Chicago, Sept. 29.-Testimony in di- rect opposition to the evidence by var ious western railroad officials was given before the interstate commerce commission today. by President Ripley of the AtchisOn. Topeka and santa Fe railroad. The commission Is investI- gating freight rates on live stock and live stock products from Missouri river points to Chicago. President Ripley declared that the rate on dressed beef between Kansas City and Chicago should be 150 per cent higher than the rate on livestock. He said it cost less to carry live stock than packing hous,- products and submitted statistics iu support of his contention.
 The packing house business today is so highly organized and concentrated in so few hands that this fact together with the keen competition between railroads practically makes 1t possible for them to dictate rates for dressed beef and packing house products said President Ripley. Freight rates have always been based on the value of service furnished the shipper rather than on the actual cost of transporta- tion."
 The witness then read a table of sta aN load lots of live stock. dressed >b5er and packing house products from Kan sas City to Chicago According tO the figures submitted by President Ripley. the expense to the Santa Fe road for hauling car of dressed meat from Kansas City to Chicago is SS2-I9. pack ing house products SS5.03. and live stock S64-77. President Ripley claim ed that his company lost money ou every car of dressed beef hauled b.-- tween Kansas City and Chicard-
 My opinion based on a study of the subject and years Of experience in the railroad business" continued Presi- dent Ripley, 'is that the rate on live stock should not be higher than the rate on dressed beef and packing house products
 "The only exception to this is when conditions arise which make it neces- essary for the roads to change their rates on these commodities. Strictly speaking and under normal conditions the rate on dressed beef should be 15g per cent higher than on live stock Ia actually costs the railroads 70 per ceus higher than on live stock IL actually costs the railroads 40 per cent less ta handle cattle than it does to handle dressed beef in refrigerator cars"

FEVER AT NEW ORLEANS
More New Cases Yesterday but the
 People Still Optimistic.

New Orleans, Sept. 29.-The yellow fever report to 6 D. m. is: New cases, 2S; total to date. 2.9S9; deaths. 2; to- tai to date. SS6; new foci. 5; cases un- der treatment. 24S; cases discharged, 2.34O.
 Some increase over the very low record Of the preceding four days was shown in today's report of new cases, but in view of the fact that the pop ulation today is much larger than it was a month ago the percentage of sickness is considered exceedingly small. The days deaths showed a de- cline.
 The feeling of uncertainty regard ing the visit of President Roosevelt still exists, and there is small appre- hension that the decision Of the Amer ican public health aassociation to have a committee communicate to the pres ident its sentiments of opposition to the visit at this time may cause the cutting out of New Orleans from the present trip. It is promised that a de- cision will be given finally on Monday.
 Pensacola, Fla, Sept. 29.-Following is a summary of the fever situation up to p. m.: New cases, 16; total to date, 13S; deaths. today, 2; total to date, 23; total eases discharged, AS; cases under treatment, 65.
