Reancn, SEVERAL ULTIMATUMS 25¢ and 3bc ricen IN PROSPECT CHICAGO, April 6.—Western general passenger agents at their meeting today wrestled with a matter that threatens to ca demoralization of Pan-American ex- position rates Ip western territory. The row js over a difterential rate that the Wabash Is maintaining from Kansas City to Buffalo and New York. The Wabash is conceded to be the short line between those points and makes quicker time by severa] hours than any of the other lines. The other lines feel that the Wabash, with the advantages it possesses, should not be allowed to enjoy a lower rate than they have during the exposition and secure the great bulk of the business from Kans: City and the southwest. All efforts made to induce the Wabash to change its position have fa'ed and as the road was not represented at today's meet- ing the concluslon was reached that It means to fight. The Wabash's competitors are now determined to meet whatever rates that road may make on account of the e: position and notices to this effect will be served upon it in a few days by a part, it mot all, of the lines.

But very different is *that tired feeling,” from which so many com- plain and which may even be classed as a disease. That tired feeling takes you to bed tired and wakes you up tired. You have no appetite, have bil- fous taste, dull headache, are ner- vous and irritable, blue, weak and discouraged. In such conditions Hood's Sarsa- parilla does & world of good. It begins in the right place—in the blood, purifying it and impart- ing vitality, then its tonic effect is felt by the stomach, kidneys and liver; appetite comes back, all waste is removed naturally, headaches oease, fAat tired feeling departs and you feel liko a new person. This has been the experience of thousands. It will be yours if you take Hood’s Sarsaparilla Sold by all druggists. Pre by C.

COMBINE YUKON COMPANIES No More Cut R on Transportation SAN FRANCISCO, Aprll 6.—The Call says this morning that the proposed com bination of the Alaska trading and trans- portation companies will soon be completed. ‘The parties to the deal are the Alaskan Ex- ploration company, capitalized at $1,000,- 000; the Alaskan Commercial company, cap- ftalized at $2,000,000, and the North Ameri- can Trading and Transportation company, with a capital of $5,000,000. It is yet uncer- taln whether the Ames Mercantile company, caplitalized at $200,000, will join the com- bine. The new corporation, represemting the united Interests of the companies named, will be called the Yukon Mercantile company. This city will be made the sup- ply point and largely the polnt of departure for vessels of its fleet. The negotiations have been carried on s secretly as possible and have been actu- ally fruitful of but ome large result up to the present time. That consists in the greement that has been made to regulate he transportation on the Yukon river. There will be no more cut rates. This was considered one of the essential provisions necessary to be made at once, in view of the coming season. When the deal is com- pleted a written statement to the press will probably be issued by the new company.

The raise will affect several hundred men. In making their de- mands the firemen had the support of the engineers.

Y., April 6.—At a meeting of the incorporators of the Pan-American exposition today President J. C. Millburn submitted a funds of the exposition would meet all ob- ligations covering the completion of the ex- position, with the exception of about $500,- 000. After the recent failure of congress to grant a loan of $500,000 to the exposition Director General Willlam I. Buchanan stated to the Associated Presa that this ac- tion would in no way effect the carrying out of the exposition in the fullest details as planned. This assertion was justified by the result of the meeting of the incorpors ators today, when within an hour over $200,- 000 was subscribed. President Millburn expects that the re- malning amount necessary will be ralsed the coming week, especlally in view of the fact that the citizens of Buffalo are de- sirous of making a unique record in the history of international expositions, the Pan-American Exposition company having received no inanclal aid from either the national government or the state of New York. ROUTE TO YELLOWSTONE PARK Indications that Burlington uild Its Extension Through Meeteetue, win MEETELTSE, W April 6.—(Special.) —The people of this place expect a boom the coming summer. Property of all kinds I being held at higher figures than at this time last year and there seems to be a tendency upon tho part of the moneyed men of the town to acquire as much prop- erty as possible, Recent developments here show that it 6 probable the Burlington railroad will c1oss the Shoshone river in the vicinity of Eagle's Nest, and, pussing through Mee- teetse, will build to the southeastern corner the Yellowstone park, instead of follow- {ing up the Shoshone to Cody City. It I3 aeserted that while the Taluca-Cody line was surveyed via Cody, the grade stakes vere never set to Cody and were driven no farther west than Eagle's Nest. From there the line has been surveyed almost south to a polat near Burlington, on the Gray Bull river, and from that place up the river through Meeteetse. No grading on the line has been done this side of Eungle's Nest, As an indication that the Burlington will build through Meeteetse is the fact that the Kirwin and Wood river mining dls- tricts whll be tapped by the line running would have to be bullt to these camps if the main line of the road was extended through Cody City. These two camps con- tain some of the richest copper and gold mines discovered In this part of the Rocky movntain range, and it is sald that oM. cluls of the Burlington are interested in them. Up and down the valley of the Gray Bull, | with Meeteetso as the center and distribut- ing point, to be found hundreds ot ranches, nearly all under irrigation, each |ralsing great guantites of hay, alfalfa, grain, potatoes, vegetables and fruits, and supporting large herds of cattle. In ad- ditlon to this there are croppings of coal all along the valley and it is said that the Burliugton has recently filed on large | tracts of coal land In this section. The ' coal has stood some wonderful tests and exrerts pronounce it the best coal found in the state, i An agent of W.

Mr. Clark is also interested in the copper mines in the Kirwin district southwest of Meeteetse, By bullding the Taluca road through Meectectse the Burlington will not only plerce all of the coal, gold and copper districts, the richest stock-growing and agricultural sections of Big Horn county, but such a line would be the most direct route to the Natlopal park. It would also open to development & rich and prac- tically unsettled section on the headwaters of Green and Wind rivers, and by pushing on In a southwesterly direction for a few miles the wonderful Teton basin country would be entered.

LIKE DUMAS’ MUSKETEERS Three Americ Artl Costume that Rouses Ho: ity of Peasants, end de- (Copyright, 101, by Press Publtshing Co.) PARIS, April 6.—(New York World Cable- gram—Special Telegram.)—Three American artists who traveled through northern Spain and part of France on horseback dressed llke the musketeers in Dumas’ povel, after camping for three weeks in t suburbs of Paris, have started out again. This time they are going through eastern Furope till Bulgaria is reached. Their names are Carter, Wainwright and Rey- nolds. All three men possess artistic tal- ent, and have studied here three years. Wainwright has had several paintings ad- mitted to the salon. Two years ago the trio went south, and later went touring about om horseback. Still later the love of fun impelled the three to dress like musketeers. Despite the multitudinous annoyances brought by strange costumes among the disconcertel and often hostile peasant populations, the riders visited many lands. During their recent stay here the little band was given many parties at the American studios and recited curlous adventures. Walnwright claims to h married the daughter of a Spanish smuggler who, after traveling with the party a few weeks, left her American husband and returned to her people. Countess Esxcapes Death. Comtesse de Gabriac marrowly escaped death by being one of the many wounded pascengers in the wreck of the Biarritz- Paris express. The comtesse was returning from Pau, where, with Comtesse Ganay and Mr. and Mrs. Ridgway, she had a gay winter with the American colony. The wounds about her chest’and head are not serious, though painful. Comtesse Gabrino is a sister of the beautiful former Mrs. Clarence Andrews, now the wife of Allen Arthur, son of ex-President Arthur. Loung Distance Automobilens. Long-distance automobile riding is the latest fad among ultra-fashionable Euro peans. Following the example of Grane Duke Viadimir, who, with two women, traveled from St. Petersburg to Nice in a week, partles are being constantly organ- ized to beat the existing long-distance records. Last week nine autos crossed the English channel with parties from London for divers points in southern Europe. One was going to Constantinople, another to Madrid. Count and Countess Jean Cavellane went from is to San Remo in ten days. Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria traveled from his capital to Vienna and Mentone. An American painter, Dannat, took ‘a joyous party from Parls to the Riviera in four days.

PARIS, April 6.—(New York World Cablegram—Special Telegram.)—Bridgman, painter, and MacMonnies, sculptor, have got into serious difeulties with a number of handsome American girls here. The American Art assoclation decided this year to replace the usual minstrelsy at its annual festival by tableau vivants representing pictures of the most famous living artists. So long as the rehearsals were In ordinary street dresses everything was smooth among the artists in charge of the rehearsing and the society girls chosen becavse of thelr good Mgures to personaie the nymphs and fairies. But when the girls were requested to pose in the various stages of undress demanded for an accurate repro- duction of several of the masterpleces many retused pointblank to appear clad thinly encugh. Other girls sacrificed themselves at one rehearsal, but the ordeal proved too severa INPROVED MIND. The Food Grape-Nuts, A famous woman says: "I am so much in love with Grape-Nuts that I presume I often bore people telling them about the new food. You certainly make an everlast- ing fortune from the sale of it. The ar- ticle has become thesbest known cereal on the market.” It can hardly be called a cereal for it is ot lke the common rolled wheat or rolled oats, but it is in the form of granules, ranging from the size of & pin head up to twice or three times that size. It 1s thoroughly cooked ai the factory, and requires no preparation whatever, but can be served instantly with hot milk or hot cream to make a hot mush, or coid cream can be poured in the side of the saucer and a very deliclous crisp food 1s the result. Not only is the taste fascin- ating, but the nutritive value of the food Is very greai as shown by the improved condition physically and mentally, of those the | | husband's death.

This is part of their scheme of extortion.

There is nothing to conceal Two of these persons have been taken fll since I told them I should expose them. My husband's family are all away from Loudon, s0 they know nothing of my application, but they do know how these persons acted and their sympathies are with me in this trial.” Lady Cook, who was much affected by her trouble, asseverated agaln and again that she would have a public autopsy on her husband's body. Legal opinlon given to the World is that an exhumation otder would not be granted on the vague plea set up, but in that event Lady Cook is de- termined to take other measures for her vindication. She would not say what was the nature of the claim her foes advanced. CZARINA'S DELICATE HEALTH She Hopes for an Heir This Month, While R in iIn Tarmotl. (Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.) ST. PETERSBURG, April 6.—(New York ‘World Cablegram-—Special Telegram.)—A reported attempt on the czar's life at Tsarsko proves unfounded. The czar and czarina are living in complete seclusion there. The czarina's health is very delicate. Her accouchement is expected this month. Though disturbances throughout the chief cities of the empire, provoked by Pobe- doostzefl's bigoted repreesion, caused much loss of lite and sent a large draft of polit- ical suspects to Siberfa, the talk of a rev- olution is mbsurd. A revolution can only come here by the chiefs of the government and of the army combining to depose the czar, an event about as likely as a con- spiracy in the college of cardinals to over- throw the pope. This country is 8o vast, the inertia of the peasant class so profound and their ignorance so hopeless that it will take a century before a revolution can spring from the people. Repression of Students, Measures of drastic repression have been initiated against the students in the uni- versities throughout the empire. Four hundred students here have been ordered to report themselves morning and evening to the police. All who fail to do so are arrested and thrown into prison for an in- definite period. Several have been arrested already. At Odessa, in a raid made on a printing press worked by girl students, fourteen were arrested and 170 others placed under strict police surveillance. In Kieft three students were mysteriously killed by poison, it is believed by their fellow students, on suspicion of being police sples. The universities would be closed, but the authorities fear the dispersal as spreading the venter of disaffection. They prefer to keep the students under ob- servation in big bodies. Great consternation has been caused at Moscow because ninety students absconded without leave on a mission to preach Ao- clalism among the peasants in the villages. In Charkoff two students were killed and twenty-four wounded in the recent dis- turbances, WOMAN ALL IN ONE COLOR Ref ¥ Dres: Laughed to Scorn Beaux of Berlin. yright, 101, by Press Publishing Co.) BERLIN, April 6.—(New York World Cablegram—Special Telegram.)--A women's artistic dress reform movement Is interest- ing Berlin soclety hugely. Henry Vonder- belde, a distingulshed artist, lectured to an aristocratic audience Thursday. Ho urged women to wear costumes all of one color for evening dress, like the men, con- tending that a unifofm mass of one color makes @ better cftect than variegated hues, He also recommended the adoption of a national costume, but his audience proved hostile to such a retrogressive idea. Every woman, he declared, should be taught to draw designs for her own clothes as the best way of teaching appreciation of the beautiful. When a dress her she would wear it for years officers and other male swells pre laugbed nloud at this, so men will be ex- cluded from future lectures Morality N S0 Low. In Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne and Alx-la- Chapelle trials are progressing of a scanda- lous character which throw a harsh light on the morality of the well-to-do classes in these places.
