Col. p NJ Hoisington, commander of
the Second regiment, Kansas National

Gently extensively published got start
ed
This report, which originated at
Wichita, was to the effect that secret
orders had been received by the ma
tional guard companies there, to get
ready on forty hours notice, to start
for Old Mexico.
The inference was that the entire
Kansas national guard had been order
ed to prepare to start for war. The
rumor was generally published, and
was given what seemed to be semi
official confirmation at Wichita.
'T cannot understand how such re-
port started" said Colonel Hoisington,
who was in Hutchinson last evening.
'sIn the first place it was absolutely
false. No such orders have been is
sued The serious part of it is that
the publication of such rumors has a
tendency to make our state military
ridiculous.

no such orders were received.
but it has a tendency to hurt the
national guard. I am making an inves-
tigation to find out how such a report
originated. This is a serious matter

The Cuban Insurgents Capture
Ell Caney del SitiO.
Amount of Damage Is Estimat-
ed at High Figure.

Santiago, May PA band of ne
gro insurgents, apparently under the
command of General Ivonet, has at
tackled and captured Ell Caney del
Sitio, four miles from Palma Soriano,
on the. Beyamo branch of the Cuba
railroad. They sacked the town,
committing many outrages.
A small detail of rural guards sta
toned at Ell Caney del Sitio was un-
able to offer any effective resistance
to the rebels.
Ell Caney del Sitio is situated in
the center of a rich coffee and cocoa
region, and the amount of damage
done by the rebels is estimated at a
high figure.
A body of regular troops left San
Luis last night for Ell Caney del Sitio
on the receipt of the report that the
place. They arrived too late, how
ever, to prevent the sacking of the
town, but intend to pursue and at
tack the insurgents today. The new
ly organized corps of volunteers while
patroling the streets of Santiago last
the electric light posts near the
power house.
Apparently it was his intention to
plunge the city into darkness in order
to facilitate a night attack by the
insurgent forces known to be in the
immediate vicinity.
American Stores PiIlaged.
Havana, May 24-Two stores in the
village of San Marcos in the vicinity
of Guantanamo, belonging to the FL
deity company, an American concern,
were pillaged by a rebel band today.
The negroes carried off all the stock,
eight horses and $500 in cash. The
Cuban cruiser Cuba has arrived at
Guantanamo with reinforcements of
infantry and artillery and arms for
the local volunteers.

from the battlefield.

Ambrose, Plummer and Noonan are
the towns seeking the honor, and each

HANNA IS POPULAR.

During the past week Mr.. Hanna

everywhere he was given a warm re.

was accompanied part of the time by
Secretary of State Norton, republican
nominee for congress in the Third
district, and he also was given a
warm reception and assurances that
that section of his district would
give him a large majority. AS to the
status of the congressional fight in
the Third district it may be said the
outlook grows better daily for Mr..
Norton's success by majority rang

CLARENCE WOOD OF AMENIA,
WHO WAS DRIVING TO FARGO
MEETS WlTH ACCIDENT. t.

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 22.-Clarence
Wood of Armenia, who was driving to
Fargo late Saturday night in his ma
chine, struck the bridge that crosses
the Sheyenne river just five miles
north Of the city and plunged down
the embankment in his car. He was
thrown beneath the auto which had
caught on fire and miraculously ex-
tracted himself and dragged himself
to the nearest farm in the vicinity,
the Keille place, which is nearly a
mile distant from the bridge.
Just as Mr.. Wood reached the
bridge one of the tires exploded which
caused the machine to swerve in it's
course and strike the bridge. When
it toppled over it took fire and the
flames psread to the structure Of the
bridge, Both were completely de-
stroyed by the fire. V
Arriving at the Keille farm, Mr.
Wood sank exhausted and was has.
tened to st. Johns hospital in this
city, where he was given immediate
attention. He is under the care Of
DR.. Wetble at st. Johns hospital and
this afternoon was reported to be
resting easily. With the probable ex-
ception Of some internal injuries, not
yet discovered, he escaped without
the slightest wound or even a scratch.
Dr.. Weible thinks the escape is
really miraculous and it is yet mys.
terry how the man ever freed himself
from the fetters OF the burning auto
mobile on top of him. to say nothing
! of dragging himself clear to the
Keille farm, such great distance
away. !. :. ~

Railroads Are
Suit Defendants
CHARGED WITH MAKING ILLEGAL
RATES ON SWITCHING IN THE
r TWIN CITIES.

The Great Northern and Northern
Pacific, Fargo's two leading transpor-
tation companies, are made defend
ants along with seven other railroads
which enter Minneapolis and st. Paul
in suit which charges them with
making illegal charges for switching
work in the Twin Cities. The petit
ton which is the result of the efforts
of the Minneapolis Civic and Com
merce association, has been placed
before the state railroad and ware
house commission in Minnesota The
petition asks that the Minnesota
Transfer Railway company cease to
make switching charges in the Twin
Cities on all line traffic. H..
The nine railroads are involved as
part owners Of the Minnesota Trans
fer company and the petition was
fled as an outgrowth of the effort of
the latter company to establish a
small free switching zone. and to
make special switching rates outside
of the small restricted territory. The
Civic and Commerce association
fought the. transfer company's' pro-
posal but the commission gave an or
der establishing the zone and the as
sociation has asked for a rehearing.
The railroads named are Great Nor
thern, Great Western, Milwaukee,
Omaha, Rock Island, Northern Pacific,
500, Minneapolis and St. Louis and
the Burlington.
Transfer Line as Part Of Each
The new petition seeks on order
from the commission requiring the
railroads to treat the Minnesota
Transfer Railway company as part Of
their respective terminals. 1t asserts
the charter of the transfer company
provides that it shall act as means
of interchanging traffic between these
trunk lines, as we'll as serving indus
tries in IS own district, by forward
ing and delivering all line traffic The
allegation is that the transfer COM
pany violated its charter when it
sought to make a charge of it's own
against the shipping public, thereby
posing as a common carrier It is
asserted, too, that its charter makes
it a part of each of the owning lines.
The petition asks the railway CON-
mission for an order requiring the
railroads to treat the Minnesota
transfer as part Of their own termi-
nails in fixing the switching rates on
local or industrial traffic, that is, bus
mess moving locally between indus
tries on the transfer company's tracks
and those on the trunk lines impli-
Gated. Under present arrangements
the railroads fix their own switching
rates individually.
The case put up to the railroad and
warehouse commission is declared to
be of great importance to the CONNER
cial interests of the two cities.
