REPUBLIC SPECIAL Now York, Auff. 9. Russell Saeo Is not satisfied by any means with tlio present easy money rates. "There is danger of very heavy losses un der present conditions," lio said to-day, "lie cause or tho kind of collateral banks are now accepting. The banUn are compelled to nccept It in order to loan tlielr money at all. Money Is a druu; on the market now. It Is a very unsatisfactory condition. With tha possibility of falling prices for securities lenders may llnd themselves insufficiently protected." Mr. Safro expressed tho view that what the situation needed is a hljriier money rate. Ho said that the success of the British war loan hero, v.'hlch surprised him somewhat, althouRh he was Rhid to see it. was largely due to tho fact that money was in so little demand. "Hut tho Englishmen used good judg ment in deciding to issue tho bonds at P0," he continued. "They could not have floated them at par I think. I doubt if they could have done so at 09." Mr. Sage was asked if ho had carried out Ids intention by Mibscriblng to tho loan. "I intrusted my subscription to another man." said he, "and I haven't heard wheth er lie got the bonds I wanted or not. I was glad to encourage the good feeling between the two countries which the loan should produce. If this attempt to place an Eng lish loan had bewi a disappointment it might have hindered other attempts." Mr. Sage's views that banks are apt to accept poor collateral when money is easy, is by no means universally shared. Tho cashier of ona of the city's most prominent banks said to-day: "Wo don't act on that principle. When money is commanding only 1 per cent it is hardly worth while to lend it nt all, be cause of attendant risks. It needs u very high money rate to tempt us to accept as collateral securities that are not gilt-edged." CHlNESJTwAirCLOSES MILLS. Galveston Cotton Plants and Em ployes Affected. REPUBLIC SPECIAL Galveston, Tex., Aug. 0. Tho Galveston cotton mills will phut down September 1. How long tho spinners will bo idle can only bo determined by trade conditions and solu tions or the intricate Chinese problem. It ; wn3 with r-rpnt roluftfl tlfl tbnt- tlift rllri'tnria dotermined on this action, but owing to the demoralization of the cotton goods trade, with no prospect of improvement in tho im mediato future, there was no other course open to them but to st spend operations un til there is an improvement in trade condi tions and a demand for cotton fabrics. The pay rolls of the mills last Saturday cuntalned 491 names. The operatives in eacli of the various departments will be retained until their work Is completed, then idleness and suffering until tho mills start up again., as tlielr salaries were not sufficient to pro vide for such an emergency as a shut-down. Yesterday the broker of the mills sold 200 bales of cotton which the mill had on hand. A month or two from now, the mill people believe, they can buy 300 bales of cotton of tho new crop at S3 a bale less than they got for the cotton they sold. The Galveston mill people hoped the Chi nese imbroglio would be speedily settled and thereupon the dry goods demand would in stantly revive. Hut, as there is no sign of it, and as China is a big customer of Amer ican mills, CO per cent of their product going there, the directors followed the action of other mills and decided to shut down until thero was an improvement in trade condi tions.

Walked By Former Employer's Place to Drive Away Trade. REPUBLIC SPECIAL. Kansas City, Mo.. Aug. 0. W. N. Mont gomery was fined in the Pollco Court tr day on a charge or obstructing tho sidewaik. Montgomery was one of four members of the waiters' union detailed to ratiol tho sidewalk in front of a restaurant, and urge passers-by not to patronizo tho place, as the proprietor was unfriendly tn union labor. The owner complained of Montgomery and he was arrested and fined. The waiters at this restaurant struck on July 1, but for several weeks, until last night, no walking delegates had been placed in front of it to solicit people to keep out of the shop. The walkers were there at luncheon time to-day and kept moving all the time, repeating the words, "Don't pat ronize this restaurant: he has turned down the working man." The restaurant, how ever, is owned by a woman. The cashier said this afternoon that the police had decided that as long as the men kept moving they would not be arrested. One of those men walking there now has not worked in the place s-ltwe last February and since then has worked for a laundry. ' This afternoon Chief Hayes Issued an order to arrest tho boycottcrs' walkers in front of any restaurant and seeking to pre vent customers from patronizing the places. Several restaurants are under the ban of the union waiters, and this was one of the methods decided upon to assist the waiters in their light. The case of Montgomery may be appealed. G. A. n.

Chicago Merchants' Wail Against Existing Conditions Is Increas ing Daily Military Move ments General Notes. Chicago, 111., Aug. 9. Tho Times-Herald to-day, in commenting on tlio excess fare situation, lia9 this to say: "Thero are eight trains out of a total of twenty-thrco from hero to New York on which excess fare is charged. "An Idea of tho character and extent of tho discrimination against Chicago is had when these figures aro compared with those mado up from train service between St. Louis and Cincinnati and New York. Wera the rule enforced against St. Louis, and it would have been but for the protest of the merchants, excess fare would now bo charged on six trains from that city to New York out of a total of eleven east bound trains. Tito Baltimore and Ohio has no St. Louls-Now York train below thirty three hours, the agreed limit; tho Big Four has two, one making tho run in twenty nine hours and fifty-four minutes and the other in twenty-nine hours. The Vandalia lias threo under the agreed schedule, ono making tho run in twenty-eight hours and thirty-six minutes, a second in twenty eight hours and forty-five minutes and a third in thirty hours and fifty-five minutes. Tho Wabash run3 one train under the schedule, making the trip in twenty-nine hours and fifteen minutes. "The equitable enforcement of tho rule would require excess fares on all these trains, but the rule in enforced as against Chicago only. "Tho rulo also makes an agreed schedule of twenty-three hours and thirty minutes between Cincinnati and New York, and if It were enforced as against that city excess fares would now be charged on eight out of a total of thirteen trains east from Cin cinnati. Every train the Pennsylvania runs east from Cincinnati to New York is an excess-fare train under the rule, the time being made in twenty-one hours and fifty three minutes, twenty hours and fifty-three minutes and twenty-two hours and thirty minutes respectively. Two out of three trains on the Baltimore and Ohio come within the rule, making the run In twenty two hours and thlrly-livc minutes and twenty-three hours and thirty minutes. One out of two trains on the Chesapeake and Ohio makes the run In twenty-three hours and five minutes, and two out of four trains on "the Big Four come within the rule. These make the run in twenty-two hours and thirty minutes each. On westbound from New York the comparisons are about tho same." C. & A. TO DENVER. Reported cgotIntIonn to Obtain the Kaunas Pacific Branch. Chicago, Aug. 9. It is predicted that by tho end of tho current year the Chicago and Alton Ralway will havo a line of Its own between tills city and Denver. Negotiations are said to bo nqw In progress in New York for the purpose of effecting a deal whereby the Union Pacific Is to sell to the Alton its Kansas Pacific division, running from Kan sas City direct to Denver. The Union Pa cific has no particular use for this property. It is not connected east of Denver with its main line, and the latter finds an outlet to Denver via tho Julesburg cutoff, which was formerly owned by the Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf, but was acquired about a year ago bv the Union Pacific. The Alton needs the Kansas Pacific badly, having no independent outlet west of Denver. It has had for years a close traffic contract with the Kaiwas Pacific, but, not controlling the lines. It was unable to compete with tho Burlington, Rock Island and Santa Fo roads, which have lines of their own west of tho Missouri for Colorado and Kansas business. B. II. Harriman, the head of tho syndicate which controls the Chicago and Alton, is alo chairman of the Board of Directors or tho Union Pacific, and practically directs the nfTalrs of tho latter. His interest in the Alton, however, Is far greater than In the Union Pacific, the Vanderbilts having a largo interest in the latter. It has long been the opinion that It was Mr. Harn man's object to take the Kansas Pacific branch from the Union Pacific and mako it a part of the Alton system. Directors of the Alton nnd Union Pacific roads will meet in New York on September 1 to formally complete the deal for the ab porption ot the Kansas City by the Chicago and Alton. GRAIN IIATES. TJnnatlnfnctory Attempt to Adjn.it Them nt St. I'nnl Meeting. St. Paul. Minn., Aug. 9. Officials of the Illinois Central, the Milwaukee and St. Paul, the Northwestern, the Burlington and Qulncy, the Cedar Rapids and North ern and tho Omaha railways met to-day with officials of the Northern lines 'to con sider grain rates and a cut in rate3 by the Chicago lines as a suggested possibility. The Northern lines were to-day asked by the lines running into Chicago nnd Mil waukee, direct from Iowa and Nebraska, to increase the rate on grain. The Illi nois Central, the Milwaukee, tho Chicago and Northwestern and others complained that the present rates on grain from Iowa, Nebraska nnd Southern South Dakota points to Minneapolis, St. Paul and Du luth were so low that nil the grain was coming this way and that Chicago and Milwaukee wero not getting their share. Tho rates are from 1 to 3 cents in favor of tho Twin Cities, therefore the grain is diverted from the Lower Mississippi cross ings. It Is understood that the Northern lines refused. At present tho Great Northern the Minneapolis and St. Louis, tho Omaha' and, to some extent tho Great Western, are getting the best of the bargain. Tho haul to Minneapolis is a third shorter than the haul via other lines to Lower Mississippi crossings, and the lines lending to tho Twin Cities say they do not see why they should give up a natural advantage. The Southern lines threatened retaliation, but this was met by the intimation that no matter what rates might be put on, the lines leading north would maintain the differential of from 1 to 3 cents. The meet ing broke up without anything being ac complished, excepting, perhaps, to strength en the Northern lines In their attitude. MOVEMENTS OF TltOOPS. Southern Hallway Awarded a Con tract at Fnll Tariff Mates. The first section of Battery M of the Sev enth Artillery, bound for San Francisco, will leave Washington this morning over the Southern Railway for Memphis, thence over the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham for Kansas City, and thence via the Mis souri Pacific and its connections for Frisco. A most unusual and surprising feature of this movement was that the trunk lines ab solutely refused to make a bid for the busi ness, and the Quartermaster, In disgust, awarded the contract to the Southern Rail way at full tariff rates for both passengers and freight. The other sections of this battery are to follow at once. Part of the First Infantry, consisting of 300 men and five officers, left Jersey City Wednesday over the Pennsylvania and will be taken from here over the Missouri Pacific to Fort Leavenworth. They have just re turned from duty In Cuba and will be given a rest before being ordered to China. It is said a part of the First Infantry will take the place of the men now stationed at Jef ferson Barracks and the latter will be or dered at once to China.

PRESIDENTS' AGREEMENT. Effect of Rate CnttlnK on Pnckinjr Honse Product. Representatives of some of the Western railroads admit that tho presidents' agree ment to maintain freight rates is weakening and in danger of falling to pieces. Tho chief cause of the trouble Is located at Kansas City and St. Paul. While most of the West ern railroad officials have made an earnest effort to adhere to the regular tariff, the apparent futility of efforts to mako the Kansas City output of packing-house prod ucts pay tariff rates keeps the situation un settled. So long as rates arc cut in Kansas City they will be cut in other quarters. Tho Western presidents will meet again early in September and special attention will be given to the rate situation.
