germany READY TO
Make CONCESSIONS

Berlin, Feb. 19.-The government
will go before the reichstag within
three or four days with a proposal to
give the United States the same treat
ment under the new tariff, which be-
comes operative March !, as that CIV
en- to countries with whom Germany
has arranged reciprocal treaties. The
precise terms of the government bill
will depend somewhat on the result of
negotiations still continuing at Wash
ington as to notifications in the
American system of invoicing and val
uing, some features of which are con-
sidered by German exporters as vexa-
tious and unjust.
The German governments proposal
to give the United States this favored
treatment only for a limited period,
probably year, so as to afford time
to conclude a more permanent ar
rangement.
The position of the German govern.
ment is one of uncommon difficulty
because both industrial and agricul-
tural interests have been pouring in
memorials and petitions to the chan
cellor and other ministers urging the
government to stand firm and not
hand over to the United States for
nothing or next to nothing privileges
for which other countries have given
equal returns in kind. The govern
ment therefore faces reichstag near
ly as unfriendly to the tariff conces-
sions as is the United States senate.

RATE war TO COAST
SAID TO Be PROBABLE

St. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 19.-Trouble
among Chicago-St. Paul lines, which
has been brewing for some time over
the action of the Burlington and Great
Northern in establishing through tour
list car service from Chicago to the Pa
cific coast, is likely to reach an acute
satge this week, and there is every in
dication that one of the sharpest rate
wars in recent years in the Northwest.
The other roads are expecting to slash
Western colonist rates.
The cause of all the trouble is g.,
but the principle involved is the new
proposition in the passenger traffic in
the Northwest. 1t started over the
Burlington-Grea Northern through
tourist car service. Cars running
straight through from St. Paul to the
Coast naturally carry a tourist rate
all the way. Passengers that use other
lines from Chicago ton st. Paul have
a standard sleeping car rate to pay
between these two points. The stand
ard rate is 81 and the tourist rate il
81, which gives the through service
the best of it by 81. While this il
not great difference, the other lines
feared it would work seriously to their
disadvantage on through business.
The constant efforts of the St. Paul.
Chicago lines for years has been tc
maintain the balance of power, and
here the Burlington, with its tourist
cars, gets a material advantage for it.
self and smashes the concert.

Orange democracy. The change had
not attracted much attention in Eng

the change has taken place. The re-.
cent victory in West Belfast, Mr..
O'Brien said, was won only through
the assistance of Protestant workmen,
and the growing alliance between the
nationalists and unionists OF Ireland

Chinese OUTBREAK IS
NOT Believed IMMENENT

New York, Feb. l8.-In view of the
many disturbing reports appearing in
the public press concerning the condi.
tuons in China and the possibility of
further outbreaks such as those at
Lien Chow and Shanghai, the secreta-
ries Of the missionary society Of the
Methodist Episcopal chruch sent ca
blegrams of inquiry to Bishop Bash

sentatives of several other missions of
that church at Tientsin, North China;
Nannkin, Central China; Chungkeng,

The bishops cablegram in reply is
reassuring. 1t is dated February 16,
and says:
"All are safe in China. No danger
apparent. Bashford."
The response from the mission treas.
urers in North, Central, Western and
South China, dated February II, are
Of like tenor to that of the bishop.

WIT1E OR DURNOVO...
CAR MUST CHOOSE

St. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-Informa
ton has reached the Associated Press
that the desperate struggle which has
been raging in the government be-
tween the reactionary and the pro.
gressive forces is approaching the cul-
mination and must end within a few
days in the resignation either of Min
lister Of the Interior Durnovo, who ia
leading the movement for thorough
going repression, or Of Premier Witte
and several other members OF the cab
met.
The question at issue is the with
drawal Of the extraordinary powers
confided in governors throughout Rus
STA, which in many cases, it is alleged,
have been exercised for the repression
of not only political disorders, but
also of the political activity of the par
ties.
The discussion has reached such
an acute and passionate stage in the
cabinet that no other issue than the
fall of one faction or the other is DOS
sible.
The chances of victory incline in
the side of Count Witte, who sists to
that the governors must be deprived
Of their extreme powers within fort
night in order to remove the restric-
tions upon free electoral campaign.

ised partition of crown and church

to follow the first break in the cabinet

story is directed at the premier him

is credited with having bluntly in.

will, on Monday night, ask the coun-
Gil of the city Of Seattle for a fran.
ohise for the construction of an cleo.
trio railway line to be operated partly
within the limits of the city.
According to Mr.. Moore's statement

bingham, has just asked franchise

Mr.. Moore states that there is ade.
quate capital back of the project. He
also said that the enterprise is in nc

RESTRICTS ROADS.
SUPREME court HANDS Down
new DECISION.
~ Us Terms Railways cannot Deal
In Supplies they Convey-TO Allow
them to Do So Would Be to Supplv
flesnS for Determinations which
Arc Prohibited by Law.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 2O.-Jus-
tice White yesterday delivered the
opinion of the supreme court of the
United States in the case of the New
York. New Haven 81 Hartford rail-
road against the interstate commerce
commission and the interstate COM
merce commission against the Chesa-
peake & Ohio railroad, affirming the
decision of the United States circuit
court for the Western district of Vir.
ginia.
The case involves the question of
discrimination in freight rates on coal
by the Chesapeake & Ohio in favor of
the New York, New Haven g. Hart
ford road, as against other shippers.
The decision was against the railroad
company.
Justice White said that to permit a
carrier to become dealer in the COM
modities carried by it would be to
supply means for the perpetuation
of the evils which the interstate com.
merce commission is intended to rem
edy.
The case grew out of complications
existing in connection with a contract
made between the railroad companies
in 1893. The Chesapeake g. Ohio road
agreed to deliver $4,000. 900 tons of
bituminous coal to the New Haven
between July I, 1897, and July !,
1902"
The delivery in the last year fell
short 10000 tons on account of a
strike in one of the coal fields. The
New Haven road purchased coal else
where and presented bill to the
Chesapeake & Ohio company for
sos, 900, representing the difference
in cost.
Instead of paying the money the
Chesapeake & Ohio company deliv-
cred the so, 900 tons of coal, notwith-
standing the price of coal and of trans
portation had advanced. The case was
brought to the attention of the inter-
state commerce commission and the
charge made that the transaction con-
stituted preference in the matter of
freight rates against the New Haven
road. The company commended that
it was acting in the capacity of q ven
der and not as carrier. and that it
was merely supplying the coal to pay
a debt.
Justice White upheld the decision Of
the court below in declaring that both
the contracts made by the Chesapeake
& Ohio with the New Haven were
contrary to public policy and void be-
cause In conflict with the provisions
Of the act to regulate commerce.
