CHICAGO. Nov. 23.-The Chicago & Northwestern road gave notice today that It has found It necessary to apply to the MlsSburi river gateways the rate made by the Wisconsin Central between St. Paul and Minneapolis and Chicago. The North western says that it has found it necessary to apply the rate In the compilation of through rates.

The fight between the Wisconsin Central and other mads east has thus far resulted In a reduction of fares from sll to $s between Chicago and Bt. Paul. Tills does not affect transcontin ental business, but the moment that the cut Is extended to the Missouri river it will reduce passenger rates )u*t that much from San Francisco to Chicago. Present fares are $72.50 for thirty-day first-class tickets, $62.30 for flrst-elnss limited, and $Tt2 50 for second-class tickets. This is on the basis of s*jo.

SHORTAGE IX COAL. Cold Weather fsaaea m Heavy De» ■naod. aad Stoche Raa Low— Pleaty la Sight Today. An unusually heavy demand for coal, ac centuated by the severe weather of the past few days, together with a 10-s of tune ir. the changing of the gauge of The Colombia & Pugrt Sounl Railway Com pany. has caused a temporary shortage of fuel There signs yesterday of an approaching famine of the carbonite ne cessity, but men who are in touch with the business gave it as their opinion that the stringency in the coal market would be relieved today, or at most, by tomor row. Several teamsters, who arc ! n the busi ness of delivering coal throuxh the resi dence portion of tho city, have hid their orders refused during the pist forty-eight h'»urs. \\ hile there seemed to be an am ple amount of coal for steam purposes yet that for domestic use w.i« comparative ly short in quantity. At the Oregon Im provement Company, were told that th*Sr orders would b~ tilled today or by tomorrow at the farthest. It was stated yesterday that twelve ?"ars of one particular kind of coal for domes tic use was brought In to the city yestar dav morning and by 1 o'clock it had all been sold. It was also stated that a heavy demand from the railroads and steamers, together with the bn>k move ment in domestic coal caused by the fall ing thermometer, had combined to reduce the visible supply to a very low ebb. C. J. Smith, of the Oregon Improvement Company, said last night that there was no imminent danger of a coal famine. The change made in the Columbia A Puget Sound railroad last week, in which the narrow track wis succeeded by one of standard srauge. had necessarily impeded the free delivery of coal to the companv's bunkers in this city, and a temporary shortage had followed. It was impossible for the company to catch up with th»-ir orders in two or three days, and for that reason there might be a temporary failure on its part to supply Its patrons with do mestic coal. "We brought in 1,30» tons of coal today." said Mr. Smith. "Only small part of It was for domestic use,"but more will follow tomorrow, and after that there will be no further difficulty. The present condition is not at all unusual. Cold weather coming on suddenly has in creased the consumption materially and naturally there is a heavier demand than usually rules."

Do you want to free yourself from the stealthy serpent which is slowly eating away your strength? Every man has sown his wild oats to some extent before he reaches the age of manhood, and there Is in every man more or less of the effect of his early dissipa tions.
