The arrival of reinforcements, SO

Mr.. McCord based his attack upon
the proposition that a solicitor might.
under the terms OF the bill. close up
any place OF business or resort by an
Injunction issuing from the chancei-
Tor. That after the matter had come
to trial and the tirm proved innocent
OF the charge, the business had no re-
course In the courts for damages that
he might have sustained by the closing
Of his place Of business.
ANY man who bore q grudge
against his neighbor might give in
formation that place was violating
the provisions OF the statute. and have
the chancery court close up his place
of business for an fndefinfte period"
said Mr.. McCord when he appeared
before the chancellor to answer to the
charges after a walt of three months
perhaps, and proved himself innocent
OF the charge. he would have no re-
course I'm law against the man who
gave the information. or against the
state.
During that waiting period the
mans credit might be seriously i'm
paired. and his business suffer greatly
as result, yet he has no recourse"
The committee, however, after Mr..
McCord's objection had been heard.
passed favorabiy upon the bill. ana so
reported to the House at the opening

Lowered.
Washington, July 29.-Important
freight rates from Atlantic seaboard
points to Chicago and Central Trafic
Association territory. were reduced
again today by tariff filed with the
Interstate Commerce Commission by

heretofore existing for many years on
import rates between Boston and the
ports Of New York. Philadelphia and
Baltimore.
The fling OF the tariff will be fol-
lowed in q day or two by the fling
of similar tariffs by the Eastern trunk
lines and means continuance of
the rate war between them and the
Boston and Maine.
The rates on import traffic now are
lower than they have ever been In

to Sweden. where he has been laooring
for three years. says the prospects are

in the northern parts. There arc many
inquirers The established church, he
says, is drifting as a ship without rud-

Of religious doctrine. Just nov. Elder
Peterson says. there is a curious contl'o-
yersy concerning the existence OF q
devil Some of the leaders of religious
thought announce that they do not be-
slleve in the existence Of a personified
evil principle, They ridicule the idea
Others proclaim universalism as the
true gospel. They believe in the ulti-
mate redemption of all mankind, and
fallen angels as we'll Others proclaim
the final authority of the sciences.

country There is uncertainty every
where. Standards of faith are being
lowered and each individual sets UP his.

They turn to nature with the dissecting
