8 IG|IOPG TgESOO! ST. PAUL-CHICAGO LINES DE CIDE TO NOT MEET THE CUT. OFFICIALS IN CONFERENCE TO DEVISE SOME METHOD TO PREVENT TII EATEN ED DEMORALIZATION. LIMBER RATES RESTORED Back Where They Were Previous to Sept. Shortage oi. Cars. •'_*..• As a sequel to the big slash made In Eastern passenger rates by the Soo line, the St. Paul-Chicago lines have agreed to Ignore the cut, and. as a re sult, the So.> people will restore rates j. on Nov. 12 to standard tariff. The passenger men are still meeting In Chi- , cago, and it :-• thought that something j definite will be done before they ad- j journ, In accordance with some under- j stahdi-ng that the ruinously low rate j in force on the Soo road would be called in. The passenger men here state that the steamship men are at | the bottom of much of the trouble in | this way: the various lines of steam- j ships have been cutting rates Indis- | criminately, and have kept the local : roads In hot water by forcing losing rates upon them. I Now the roads a**e. getting together i on a plan to frustrate this, and the steamship men realizing this, have or- j ganised, and wish recognition from the reads. For some time at least it will probably be made unpleasant for the : steamship company that accepts busi- j noss at an unprofitable figure and then j expects the connecting railroad to help stand the less. The whole matter will come up for discussion and action _hio morning in : Chicago. CHICAGO, Nov. 4.— Notice was sent to the interstate commerce commis sioners today by the Soo read that it would restore all passenger rates to the basis in effect before the recent cut, ; amounting to $7 between St. Paul and New York, was put Into effect. This action is believed to pave the way for the Soo becoming a member of the re organized Western Passenger associa tion. LUMBER RATES RESTORED Back to Where They ere Pre vious to Sept. 21. As provided at a meeting of the Western Freight association, held re cently, the rates on lumber were, yes terday, restored to the basis in effect i up to Sept. 21. The slash made at that j time amounted to a reduction of five j cents a hundred, or about 33 per cent j from the tariff and affected shipments \ frcm points in Minnesota, Wisconsin j and Michigan to the Missouri river, as j well as shipments from Chicago, the j rate, from there being the fabric of the j network of rates further West. Although there was much said about | the immense shipments which would i result from the low rate, local freight i men state that, partly owing to the | scarcity of ears, there has been no ap- i preciable Increase in shipment, al though there is always some anxiety j to get lumber quickly to market. From | Minneapolis the records show that i there have been but a normal condition cf affairs since the cut went into effect." There has been a struggle for su premacy for some time between the roads shipping yellow pine from the Southern states and those sending out the white pine from the Northwest, and although the rates are supposed . to be correlative on both sides of the Missouri river, the yellow pine ship pers are said to be getting a shade the best of the rating. At the meeting of the Western i Freight association,- scheduled for to day in Chicago, this matter will be taken up for adjustment. FASTER TIME TO THE COAST. Northwestern Road Will Do Bet ter Than the Santa Fe. CHICAGO, Nov. 4.— The cut made in the running time from Chicago to Los Angeles by the Sante Fe has spurred the Northwestern to take such action as will keep its "overland flyer" still in advance of all other roads. It has nearly completed arrangements where by the time from Chicago to San Fran cisco will be cut to three days. It pro poses to put on a new train made up of Pullman double drawing room, gas lighted sleeping cars, to leave here at 6 p. m. dally and arrive in San Fran cisco 7:45 a. m. the third day, thereby saving one night in the present run ning time. The Los Angeles car attach ed to this train will reach there at 7:30 a. m. the fourth day, cutting the time by twenty-four hours over the present scheduled time between Chi cago and points in Southern California. A second train will leave Chicago at 11 p. m. with through tourist car, foi San Francisco, connecting at Sacra mento with annex car for Los Angeles. The patrons of tourist cars will thus be able to make the trip to San Fran cisco in three and a half days. The changes will probably be made effect ive Nov. 7. SHORTAGE OX CARS. Railroad Commission Goes Ont to Investigate a Complaint. Judge Mills. Gen. Becker and Col.

STILLWATER NEWS. Another Side to the Hade-Steal ing Episode— The Boys in Court. The young* men arrested on a charge of having stolen a span of horses and a hack from Paul Hanson, appeared In the municipal court yesterday for hear ing, and their cases were continued until next Thursday. Evidently Judge Jack does not consider the offense very aggravated, for he allowed all of the boys to go on their own recognizance. The boys claim they are able to prove they hired the hack, and had no in tention whatever of stealing it. Owing to the previous good record of some of the boys, many Stillwater people are Indignant over the arrest.

AMERICA MUST EXTEND A HELP ING HAND TO" THE OP PRESSED. WE SHOULD EVEN GO TO AVAR. Principle* of the Monroe Doctrine Should lie Upheld at Any ' Cost. * PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 4— A meeting under the auspices of the Young Men's Congress of Philadel phia was held at the .Academy of Music tonight, at which strong res olutions were adopted urging Spain to give Cuba the right to govern itself. The resolutions follow: "Whereas, The psople of the United States art* deeply interested in the ir repressible conflict going on in the island of Cuba, our nearest neighbor, between the foreigners who rule that land and the native population, who should own and control it; and. "Whereas, It is cowardly, selfish, in human for us as a people, while in the full enjoyment of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, to stand silently by while another nation so directly un der our eye is struggling in want, in pain and In blood for the blessing of a liberty which should be the common heritage of mankind; therefore, "Resolved, First, that we still hope that the great nation of Spain will be awakened, by the waste of her rev enues and the increase of the death roll among her soldiers In Culia, to de sist from such an extravagant outlay of life and treasure to retain an island which is so unprofitable to her, and that she will give to the Cubans a free release, that they may govern them selves as an independent state; second, that this great assembly of the citizens of Philadelphia, representing, .as we fully believe, the feelings of the entire city, urge upon our government at Washington that it use every .honor able means to express to the govern ment of Spain our utter disapproval of the war for the subjection of Cuba, and our open sympathy with the native Cubans In their heroic attempts to se cure .their freedom; third, that "while we love peace and deprecate any rash attempts to rescind our treaties with Spain as a friendly nation, and espe cially discountenance any 111-consid ered action which would involve the United States in a war with Spain, yet we feel that there are some things worse than war, and that when our efforts to a peaceful settlement of the question are exhausted, we, as a great, liberty-loving people, will not shrink from the responsibility if the spirit of the Monroe doctrine, protecting the people of this country from the oppres sion of foreign invaders, be supported at any expense by our army and navy; fourth, that these resolutions' be for warded tb the president of the United States." . *y\- OUR DUTY TO CUBANS. Gen. F. B. Fisher presided. The principal speakers were Rev. Rus sell H. Conwell and Col. A. K. Mc- Clure. The academy was filled from pit to dome with a most enthusi astic audience. During his remarks Mr. Conwell said: "It is our duty to give Cuba the liberty we enjoy, and it is our place as a nation to suggest that she be permitted to' take care of herself." Col. McClure dwelt on the fact that Spain at the beginning of the civil war granted belligerent rights to the Confederacy. He expressed the be " lief that when congress met next month their rights would be given to Cubans. Gen. Fisher asked the audience to express itself in such a manner that it would reverberate throughout the land and call for similar expressions of sympathy. The audience expressed itself ac cordingly. A collection for the care of sick and wounded Cuban sol diers was then taken up. . ENEMIES EMBRACE. Rebels Release a Number of Span ish Prisoners. HAVANA, Nov. 4.— Details have been received here from Clenfuegos regard ing the release of sixteen Spanish sol diers who were captured yesterday by insurgents in an engagement fought at Tardio Ojo de Aqua. In the encounter sixty-four Spanish soldiers had made a gallant stand against 1,200 insurgents. The soldiers were commanded by Coi. Valle, Maj. Sanchez and Capts, Na varro and Rio, who were among those captured and released by Rego, the Insurgent leader. The latter was the first to greet the Spanish officers, and, embracing Col. Valle, he said: "Re turn to your comrades, heroes. You are an honor to the Spanish nation, and I am proud to be able to boast of de scending from such people." Then followed a touching moment, during which the Spaniards and Cu bans embraced each other and bid fare well, the Cubans shouting as the Span iards went away: "Adols, Vallentes Espanoles." The Spanish soldiers, nearly' all of whom were wounded, were well cared for while In the hands of the insurgents and ate at the same table as Rego. The action of the Cu bans has caused no little good feeling towards them. KATAHDIN TO BE ACCEPTED. Her Builders Mny Lose a Portion of the Contract Price. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.— The indica tions are that the ram Katahdin will not be rejected, notwithstanding her failure to accomplish all that was re quired of her In the matter of speed. As the vessel, which ls otherwise per fect, made several hundred horse-pow er more than she was originally de signed for, it is now quite apparent that the difficulty lies in the peculiar model of the ship, whicb the Bath Iron works did not design or alter In any way. They are not pressing for an other trial, believing that all that ls possible has been gotten out of. the boat. As the law under which the Katahdin was built Imposed no re quirement as to speed, and the only stipulation on that point Is contained in the contract, it is probable that Sec retary Herbert may decide, in view of the fact that there was no bid In com petition with that of the Bath Iron works, to arrange for the acceptance of the vessel, with perhaps a slight deduction from the contract price. CO-UPTON'S SUCCESSOR. P. H. Kerwin Named Surveyor General for Minnesota. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.— President Cleveland today settled the long drawn out fight over the appointment of a surveyor general for Minnesota, to suc ceed Gen. Compton, of Fergus Falls, the present Republican Incumbent. Mr. Cleveland named P. H. Kerwin for this position. Mr. Kerwin is the man that President Cleveland agreed to appoint upon the recommendation of ex-Con gressman Hall, of the Third Minnesota district, early last spring. Kerwin re sides in Renville county and is con sidered a very oompetent man for the place. His principal competitor, it will v. recalled, wm ex-Senator JQ. W.

CHICAGO,- Nov. 4. — The following was issued today by the Armenian National union: "While the horrible butcheries and the appalling outrages in Armenia are being carried on with no abatement, and while famine, as a result of the barbaric Turkish regime, is raging, threatening death to those who have escaped the swords of the Turkish soldiery, the civilized world is informed by recent cable advices that the Turk ish populace, as well as the govern ment, demand the Immediate with drawal of the missionaries who are ad ministering relief to the famine-strick en survivors of last year's Sassoun massacre. As the patriarchate of Con stantinople was not allowed by the Turkish government to send relief to the Armenians of Sassoun and Moush, the missionaries of the American board were entrusted with the philanthropic work of distributing relief and help to those who are In need and in danger of starvation. The presence of the repre sentatives of the American people had not failed to inspire assurance to the Armenians and protection against fresh outrages and assaults.- Their with drawal has been demanded, with threats of a still more horrible massa cre.' .'•--.'.'/•..:;' "The noble missionaries are not afraid of the threats, and they un dauntedly carry on their good work. Cable advices from Constantinople are to the effect that Minister Terrell has compiled with the demands of the Turks and ordered the missionaries to their respective posts. Believing that the withdrawal of the missionaries from the famine-stricken districts will not only deprive the Armenians of their much-needed . relief, but will ex pose them to the fury, fanaticism and cruelty of the now checked Turks, the Armenian National union requests the American public, which has been quick to sympathize with all suffering races, to insist upon their executive to in struct the minister at Constantinople to by no means comply with the de mands of the Turks by ordering the missionaries to withdraw from the field of their philanthropic work as admin istrators of relief and inspirers of con fidence and assurance. -; "This general appeal was unanimous ly adopted at the regular meeting of the Armenian National union.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.— records in the way of railway building were broken In Chicago yesterday. The Chicago City railway company, after massing men and materials for sixteen hours, began work on 'Indiana avenue at Thirty-ninth street with the beginning of the day and by 10 o'clock had turned th© horse c_*.r line from that point to Fifty-first street into an electric road. Three hundred men In that time plant ed a mile and a half of poles and strung the necessary wire. At 10:42 o'clock a car propelled by electricity went over the track. The Northern Pacific did almost as remarkable piece of work. At 1 a. m. a long train, loaded with 300 men, thousands of ties, and four miles of rails, backed on Its track on West For tieth street. Sixteen hours later another track was in place from Wash ington boulevard to Taylor str-et. This piece of work was done to fore stall Mr. Yerkes, who had his eye on the street. He had already one track there and as trolley poles were places in position last week the Northern Pacaflc took no chances of losing an opportunity to grab a street. The street car people, as soon as they heard what was going on, became alarmed and applied for police protection, say ing their track was in danger of being torn up. Policemen ■ were sent there, but there was no need of their presence. The Union Loop company also Im proved-he day in which no injunctions can be served.

SICK KIDNEYS THE CAUSE OF A HUNDRED DISEASES— HOW KIDNEYS CAUSE DISEASE BY NOT ATTEMPTING TO DO THEIR DUTIES— THEY CAN CURE DISEASES BY PURIFYING Tlie Blood— Onr Blooil Filters— j How to Cleanse Tltein. '•.*.--;.-;r;.*r -•..,• Your lungs supply air to your blood. Your heart pumps it all over your body. Your kidneys filter it. You would die if any of these three great organs stopped their work. But if any one is more important than the others, it is the kidneys. If your heart is the cause of one disease, your kidneys are the cause of twenty. Treating the kidneys is a great help in some lung and heart diseases. But treating your ' lungs or your heart will never benefit your kidneys. When you feel dull, ambitionless, dizzy, tired, nervous, have pain in your back, headache, chilly sensations, evil forebodings, puffiness of the eye lids, swelling of the feet and ankles, when you are losing flesh and sleep, you may be sure you have kidney trouble. As soon as the kidneys fall sick they stop doing their work. They stop filt ering the blood. This is worse than ever. There is poison In unflltered blood. The poison ls what causes so-called "blood diseases," such as Rheuma tism, Gout, Anaemia, Chlorosis, Neu ralgia, Eruptions, etc. The kidneys cause these diseases. The kidneys can cure them, if they are themselves first cured. They can be cured with Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kidney Pills.

They tone up and strengthen the sick kidneys. They give them fresh life and strength. They give them energy to begin work again as If they had never been sick. As soon as the kidneys are well, your other diseases will begin to go. . Your pains and aches in your limbs, muscles and joints, your headaches, your pale cheeks, your pimples and eruptions will all disappear. Not because Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kidney Pills are really attacking each one of these troubles, but because they have cured . your kidneys, and your kidneys are beginning again to purify and filter your blood.
