PRAISE ROOTS ACTION
IN SOUTH AMERICA
European Editors Commend Secretary
for Course in Connection With Drago
Doctrine Think Chile Will Weather
Storm.
By Publishers Press.

London, Aug: 25.-south American
affairs and ambitions have been very
much in the eye Of Europe this week,
the chief topic being the financial con-
sequences Of the Chilean earthquake and
the decision of the Pan-American con-
gress to submit the Drago doctrine to
the next conference at The Hague.
Mr.. Root has come in for general
communication because the press Of
Britain, ermany and France believes it
was his personal influence more than
anything else that prevented the con-
gress from taking the unwise and pro-
vocative step Of declaring the doctrine
to be part Of international law with
out further ado. ~ -. ID:
Most Of the financial authorities be-
ieve Chile will be. able to face the
complications: following. hte earthquake
without calling upon her European
hackers for funds. They are inclined
also to estimate the pecuniary loss far
beneath the cabled estimates. But the
feeling in London and Paris is that
American bankers will seize this oppor-
tunity to tighten the bonds between
New. York, Chicago and the new VAL
paraiso.> ~ ~%3. ..'-'.. -

avoid the fight. On the result Of the
expected battle rests the future Of the
| revolution. If Guerra is successful it
will mean setback for the government

Two Minor Battles. e.
There are many secure hiding places
in the mountains of the province where
small bands of insurgents can find q
secure retreat. The familiarity of the
insurgent leaders with the territory in
which most Of them opeated during the
which most Of them operated during the
a decided advantage.
Two minor conflicts were reported to-
day. A detachment Of rural guards
under Colonel Bacalos encountered a
band of insurgents near San Luis, and
an exchange of shots followed. The
rebels soon retired.
Another skirmish occurred in place
called Rio Blanco and rural guards de-
feated an insurgent band, commanded
by Colonel Asbert, and the rebels fled,
leaving four dead and dozen wounded
on the field.
Twenty Rebels Fall.
The government tonight gave out the
details of another fight which took
place this morning near Cassaijal, Santa
Clara province, in which it is claimed
twenty insurgents were killed or
wounded After the engagement, it is
reported the rurals picked up seven
dead insurgents on the field Others
are known to have been left in the I'M
derbrush. Loyalists did not lose man,
altho several were wounded.
The leader Of the insurgent band is
not know, but it is believed to have
been former Congressman Vendetta.
The insurgents were poorly armed. The
majority had nothing but machetes and
the few who had rifles were supplied
rurals, on the other hand, were equipped
with modern guns and were able to pick
off the insurgents at distance without
being in any great danger themselves.

local Cuban colony in the rebellion

received advices today from a. friend
who is high in the government service
at Havana, stating that an uprising had
started in Santiago province under Gen
eral Calaval, noted leader of the last
rebellion, and that it had got beyond
the control of the local authorities.
The letter says the government is
rigidly censoring all news concerning
the Santiago revolt because they know
if it is not Immediately suppressed the
success Of the revolutionists is almost
certain.

Informant said:

Offer Still Open.

ct assume that this request is made
pursuant to an order Of the railroad
and warehouse commission entered on
the I'd inst. in it's pending investigation
into the Minnesota merchandise rates.
The order in question directs the Great
Northern railway to permit you to in
spect the books, vouchers and papers
Of the Great Northern company which
were used in compiling the exhibits and
testimony from which Mr.. R. I. Far
ripgton testified, and from which the
statistics contained in his testimony
were obtained, including exhibits II
and ~ Of the hearing of March 26,
and exhibits H. ~ and 49, of
the hearing of July 80.
con the 22d inst. advised you that
you were at liberty to examine the
papers, books and vouchers from which
Mr.. Harrington compiled the exhibits
referred to, and also the books, vouch-
ers and papers which he used in COM
pll1ng the. other statistics referred to
In his testimony, such as the tables
showing increase Of wages and cost of
supplies and the decrease in the bust
ness local to Minnesota. In addition to
this, tho the matter was not called for
by the order, I stated that you were
at liberty to- make examination of the
books and records of the company
which showed the gross earnings of the
company from business local to Mime
sofa, and the operating expenses Incl
dent to that business.

Reasons Of Refusal.

".The gross earnings from Minnesota
business and the operating expenses in
cldent to that business are, Of course,
pertinent to the present inquiry, which
is an inquiry into the reasonableness
of tho present rates on merchandise
traffic local to Minnesota. 1 now re-
new the offer in my letter of the 22d.
in SO far as your request Of Yesterday,
embracing matters not covered BY my
letter of the 22d, it is refused, for these
reasons: ~.
"First-An examination of the &C.
counts relating to gross earnings on
business local to Minnesota will show
whether or not those earnings are in
accordance with the tariff in force at
the time, and whether any deductions
have been made from those tariff earn
ings, and the nature Of these deduc-
lions: An examination of the account
showing operating expenses incident to
the local Minnesota traffic will show
whether or not the charges in that ac-
count are proper, and whether that ac-
count includes any items to cover ex-
penses other than legitimate operating
expenses. iii

ferred to is in excess Of the power con-

the granting of your request would in

Third--If it were true, as you assert,
that this company has paid rebates and
has violated the Elkins law, and has
thereby diverted state traffic to inter.
