CONFRONTED BY A PANTHER
While Returning From Camp Meeting
 Lntter RiIes Had Exciting Experience.

Last evening about II o'clock while Luther Riles, who lives with his parents about cue mile north of Dallas, was returning from the camp meeting at Bethes. da Springs, on foot, alone, he was greatly frig htened by large panther jumping out from a large cane patch owned by Mir. Far lensworth. near Dallas.
 While Mir. Riles was passing the cane patch the panther jumped over the fence and stopped and sit ol his launches just few feet ahead, apparently waiting for Mir Riles to come a little C 'oser before 1t would make it's leap. It being bright moon light night aud so close Mir. Riles could very easily see what he was  confronted with. AS good luck would have it a wagon was ap- preaching from behind and the beast evidently became frightened and leaped off into the woods.
 When the wagon arrived on the scene MT. Rifles related his experience and he and one of the occupants hurried to neighbours house nearby and procured the services of bis dog and on return ing the dog took up the trail, but would not go more than fifty yards into the woods until 1t would return seemingly very bad ly frightened.
 Had it not been for the approach of the wagon as 1t did Mir. Rifles would probably have been torn to pieces by this beast as it was a very large one.

Without an Offspring But Is Giving
 Four Gallons of Milk a Day.
 Oil Trough, August 30.-B. Kent Is the owner of very re- markable young Jersey COW which he purchased from Deliver Pegg about a year ago. She is about three years old and has never brought calf, but some time ago while running in lot with several Calves one of them began sucking her, to winch she offered no objection. Nothing was thought of the matter at the time, but the calf continued to suck her and in a short time her udder began growing and the indi- cations were that she was giving milk. The matter was investi- gated and to Mir. Rents surprise he found the supposition to be correct. They began milking her, and the flow of milk has in- creased until now she is giving four gallons of milk a day, not withstanding the fact that she has never brought calf.

The railroad officials present num- bered thirty-four
 The American Shippers association and the Illinois Manufacturers asso- citation were represented The rail road representatives uniformly gave assurance of their intention to com ply fully with the new law. but pre- scented their views as to the operation of certain provisions, among the points urged being extension of time in which carriers may file their tariffs with the commission; continuance of the present method of posting tariffs; ob- jection to any change in export and import rates pending full hearing and the absolute concurrence of all the carriers interested before the establishment of joint rates. The shippers representatives, urged the protection of their interests, particu- larly against the railroads shifting classifications so as to put up rates and contending for the discretion of port changes and for the publication of tariffs in the full acceptation of that term. The commission reserved decision of the questions brought up.
 At the conclusion of the hearing of the traffic officials, F. T. Bentley, of Chicago, representative of the Hi nois Manufacturers association and the American Shippers association, presented series of resolutions to the commission bearing on the i'm portance of the new law. He urged the commission in the interests of the American public to take such ac- tion as would protect the interests of the shippers as well as the railrodas.
 J. A. Farley of Dallas, Texas, repre- senting the American Shippers as sociation, urged that the commission ought to exercise discretion in the matter of the change of export and import rates. He insisted that all rates should be published in the full acceptation of the term. as they were public and not private property.
 Through Chairman Knapp, the com mission announced at the conclusion of the hearing that it would take up the matters presented for considera tion and later would make known it's decision.

 Insurgents.
NO NEWS RECEIVED FROM PlRaR DEL RIO
New Bands of Insurgents Organizing at Various Points and Situation is Becom- ing More Graye-Americans Criticised for Taking Sides with Governmcnt-An Estate Owned by Americans Raidcd.

Havana, Aug. 31.-Rumor is busy Thursday with suggestions of con spiracy among the police and an open quarrel between President Pal ma and Vice President Mendez Capote. Both reports lack definite confirma- tion. At the palace, silence is main tained.
 In certain quarters Capote is sus- pected of bargaining with the insur- gents. In the event of the fall of Palma, however, there is little like lihood that the insurgents would make Capote president. They cer- tainly would not without at least the formality of an election.
 In the reported quarrel at the palace, bitter words are said to have passed, eliminating in Palma je- nouncing Capote as a traitor. The vice president is said to have repli- ed that Palma was a president with out power.
 No words of the operations of Col. Avalos, commander of the govern ment forces in Pinar Del Rio has been received here since he left San Juan De Martinez Wednesday in search of the main insurgent body. commanded by Pino Guerra. While Government circles continue hopeful of his success, new bands of insur- gents are reported to have been or ganized in various places.

 Vice President Mendez Capote visited President Palma Thursday and reiterated his denial that ne had consulted with Senator Zayas, preS- dent of the Liberal party on the question whether peace could not be restored by Palmas withdrawal from the Presidency, permitting Capote to succeed him and giving certain posts to the liberals.
 The Americans here criticise the citizens of the United States who had enlisted in the governments ma chine gun corps, believing that they should Lave remained noncombatants.
 Several exchanges of shots have been reported at various places west ward of Guanajay, near the Havana border, in Pinar Del Rio. As the place is poorly protected, reinforce ments of 50 rural guards have been sent there.
