Denver.-By an order issued by the
Interstate Commerce Commission, the
Union Pacific railroad is permitted to
close the Colorado gateways for gen
eral traffic between exclusive points
in the Northwest and east of the Mis-
souri, river An order to restore routes
and privileges previously in existence
on fruit and lumber has been ordered.
The order prohibits shippers in Mis-
souri, sending shipments to points III
the northwest on the Union Pacific
lines on the Burlington or other roads
for delivery to the Union Pacific In
Denver. 1t also prevents shipments
by the Denver & Rio Grande for de-
livery to the Union Pacific at Ogden.
Utah. All shipments destined for
points in the Northwest on the lines
of the Union Pacific must be delivered
to that road at Kansas City or Omaha.
The rule applies to both eastern and
western shipments.
An attempt by the Union Pacific to
close the Colorado gateway more than
a year ago was prevented by the Inter
state Commerce Commission, pending
a decision. A similar attempt by the
Missouri Pacific to close the gateway
to all roads ether than the Rio Grande
was also stopped.

Deny States Right to Regulate Rates.

Deny States Right to Regulate Rates.
Denver.-With characteristic corpor-
alton impertinence the Colorado &c
Southern and the Burlington railroads
ignore the right of the people through
the railroad commission and the Dis
trict Court to regulate rates on coal
from the Northern fields and TO pre-
vent the imposition of exorbitant
switching charges. These two com
panies filed their answers in the ac-
tiCn brought by Attorney A. L. Vogl
at the instance of the Consumers
League. The action brought by Vogl
sought to enforce reduced rates on lig-
mite coal from the Northern coal fields
20 Denver and also was a protest
against a schedule of switching en-,
gines amounting to 30 cents ton or
So minimum for switching cars to in
dustries on the originating line or to
other lines. the manner in which the
bulk Of the coal consumed by Denver
is handled.

Posthumous Child Inherits Estate.

Denver.-A posthumous child is not
affected by the terms of any will of
its father 1t inherits of the fathers

ceived had the father died without

decision made by County Judge Roth
gerber when the will of Gerhard Al
bert Meyer was offered for probate by
Mrs. Kunigunde Meyer, the widow. AS
a result of the decision baby born
to Mrs. Meyer several months after
her husbands death will receive a
share Of the estate while the other
children receive practically nothing.

CALOMEL MAY
HELP YOUR LIVER

. Every time you take this powerful
drug you are in danger. Take bod
sons Liver Tone instead. Calomel is
made from mercury, and while mer-
curry has many valuable. uses it is
dangerous thing to swallow. If Gallo
mel stays in the system very long it
saliyates Even when it works nat
urally it's after-effects are often bad.
Tanner Drug Co. will sell you DOd-
sons Liver Tone, which is positively
guaranteed to take the place OF Gallo
mel Liver Tone stimulates the liver
lust enough to start it working, and
does not make you sicker than ever,
as calomel often does. You feel good
after taking Dodson's and it won't
force you to stop eating or working
after taking it. 1t is as beneficial for
children as for adults.
Try a large bottle for fifty cents
under the guarantee that your money
will be given back cheerfully if you
are not satisfied.

REFUGEES ARE ARRIVING
MORE THAN 1000 ARRIVE AT
NEW YORK ON STEAMER.
French Torpedo Boats Chased Liner,
Stopped Her and Made Sure tho
PASSENGERS Ware Americans.

Passengers Were Americans.
NEW YORK.-The American liner
Philadelphia, with the first great
crowd of Americans who rushed from
Europe after war was declared, ar
rived here tonight. There were 7O2
persons in the cabin and 800 in the
steerage. Virtually all were without
baggage, many without money, and
all told stories of hardships.
The Philadelphia sailed from
Southampton a few hours after Eng
land declared war on Germany. The
first day out feet of seven French
torpedo boats and three submarines
were sighted. One of the torpedo
boats hurried after the liner, the 9TH
ers following slowly. Finally the
torpedo boat-the B-7-came along
side and ordered the Philadelphia to
stop. The war vessels circled the
liner several times, the officers look
ing closely at the faces of the passen-
gers crowded on the decks. When
the French naval officers were sure
the Philadelphia was an American
vessel and that the passengers were
Americans one shouted in excellent
English that the Philadelphia might
proceed The passenger cheered the
French ships. The cheer was re-
turned and the war vessels steamed
away.
Refugees in the steerage were Civ
en- the freedom of the ship. The men
were separated from the women, how
ever, and in some cases husbands
were separated from their wives by
this regulation. Rather than sleep
in the steerage scores slept in the
smoking room, on the boat deck I'M
der the boats and life RATS and in
steamer chairs. Four persons were
in every cabin.
Hundreds on board the Philadel-
phia had rushed from the interior of
France and Germany. Travellers
from Paris told of mobs swarming
through the streets breaking win
dows and looting German shops. 9th
ers told of Germans in the French
capital being beaten by gendearmes
and excited citizens.
Streets near the railroad stations
were piled high with abandoned bag
gage. So great was the rush of
Americans from France to England
that small steamers, constructed to
accommodate from 500 to 900 per-
sons, carried 5000 men, women and
children across the channel.

sides.
The German army, having Cologne
as its base, crossed the Belgian from

guns along the railway line command

OPPOSING WARSHIpS
OFF NEW YORK CITY

New York, Aug. 6.--From wireless
signals picked up it is believed that
there are three German cruisers and
the converted cruiser Prinz Wilhelm,
three English cruisers and two French
cruisers just off the entrance of New
York harbor.
Now that war has been declared be-
tween Germany and England it is be-
lieved big naval engagement may be
fought off the American coast should
the English and German or the
French and German cruisers get
within firing distance of each other.
1t is not believed, however, that
the German ships will risk an engage
ment If they possibly can escape it.
The cruisers are patrolling the
American coast to seize any foreign
treasure ship or ships loaded with
food or fuel that may leave American
ports for Europe
