Building, Corner Sixteenth and Douglas St CREDIT DEAL TO HARRIMAN | BReports Name Union Pacific as Power After the Banta Fa ROCK ISLAND IS ALSO MENTIONED Chairman of Atch) Board Admits Hearing that Kuhm, Leeb and Company Are Harrima; Authorized Agents. Biatse of certain pecutlarities of the stock market in Wall street within the last few days persistent rumors have it that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fo is on the market and that the Union Pacific or possibly the Rock Island fs after it. It is not surprising that no definite information can be obtained on the subject. Union Pa- eific officials here, of course, protest abso- lute ignorance of the whole matter, since all financing is credited up to the New York office. Even in financial circles the report is not recelving the serious consideration which might be expected, notwithstanding %0 important a statement from the chair- man of the Banta Fe's board of @irectors, Victor Morawetz, that he had heard that the Unfon Pacific was after control of his road and was making the fight through Kuhn, Loeb & Co. Mr. Morawets s said to have denfed that he had offered his Santa Fo stock for sale. Santa Fe stock has been down to an un- usually low ebb, but this s doubtless due to the frantic fight that has been waged on it. Eliminating the rumors of the Union Pacific or any other road being interested in the stock, the present abrupt rise may be explained merely by the theory that the stock is simply being restored to a figure commensurate with its actual value. Yet, dospite all this, raliroad men are still half way inclined to think, because of the sev- eral reports, that Kuhn, Locb & Co. have been authorized by Harriman to get control of the Santa Fe, that there may be some- thing in the rumor of the projected sale. Not Untii Millennium. A circular letter to the raliroads has been fssued by J. W. Midgley of Chicago, in an effort to make an adjustment on compensa- tlop, for the use of private cars and charges for the transportation of commodities. ‘The lotter assalls the ppckers and owners of and states that the trafc referred much less important to the carrlers he producers. It pelnts.out that the. ull make an object 40 the rall- j Foad companies to care for thelr products. ¢ the rallroads would be better off without gnremunerative tonnage apd, would. have £00d prospect of énlisting cb-opetation, now being urged in many places. . The letter states that the packers are together to ‘‘work” the, railroads, so all ‘nay enjoy the same concessions. Figures ,On the eastern territory show that as the j lvestock rates declined the raliroads broke jfrom their existing relations until the "basis s at present 45 cents on dressed meat and 28 cents on cattle, that last named being a nonpaying rate. It s said ‘also that most eastern ship- ments are comsigned by the packers, and almost all cattld are sent in cars belonging to private companies. These are required to be run at express speed and the re- sult i3 that o greater amount of mileage is earned than what the companies care for. Officials of the freight departments of the various Omdha roads think this plan & very good ame if it can be worked out. “It may be when the millennjum comes,” sadd one: praminent official, “for 1. don't think we will have to grapple with it until then." The Chicago Great Western recently closed a contract running seven years, with the shippers, by which' it will handle a very large percentage of their output, This was first made with the Kansas City ship- pers, but has been made general, and will thus affect local companies. The rate 1s 20 cents per 1,000 for stock, while meat and corn are shipped for 21 and 18 cents re- spectively. Milwaukee Gets Busy. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, hav- ing just completed Its short cut line from Chicago to Kansas City, placing it on & Parity with, other quick service roads, be- tween those polnts, is now addressing itselt to the task of keeping the Illinols Central out of Milwaukee. Wednesday officials of the Milwailkee Southern, the road over which the Illinols Central hopes to galn entrance into Milwaukes, appeared in court in an effort to secure condemnation of cer- taln rights of way In the southern part of the city and were met by officials of the "Milwaukee, who protested against the court sranting such condemnation on the ground that the effect would be to deface the Beauty of the parks. The court took the protest under advisement. The Millwaukee's line from Chicago to Kansas City lessens the distance ffty miles. Two new lines have been com- structed, one from Muscatine to Rutledge, Ia., & distance of seventy-five miles, and the other from Ashdale to Thompson, a distance of fourteen miles. Loocal trafns will be run over the new lines st once; but the through service will not be in operation for thirty days. Ticket Agents Meet.

Wells of Utah, Judge W. H. King and Fisher Harris of Salt Lake City will ad- dress the convention and between sessions the visitors will be shown the aftractions of the tity, the street car company having extended the courtesles of Its service to Saltair and other points. At the close of the convention the visitors will be the guests of the Oregon Short Line on a trip to Portland, stopping at Nampa, Bolse City, Huntington and The Dalles, where the boat will be taken for the trip down the Columbia river to Portland. DEMAND BY AMERICA (Continwed from First Page.) BEven funeral processions are halted and the corpses stripped of their clothes. The priests’ vestments are weised and the soldiers sell all their plunder openly, the officers apparently consenting. The in- formant of the Assoclated Press says the Christian inhabitants are terror-stricken, hourly fearing & general massacre by the Mussulmen, whose fanatical hatred of the Christians has reached the highest point. Shops are closed in Monastir, business s suspended and the strects are deserted. Even the consuls do not dare to venture outside thelr homes. The country people are afrald to come to the city less they should be robbed and murdered on the way. Officials Prevent Investigation. Europeans desiring to see the burned vi- lages are prevented by various exouses. The British consul wanted to go to Bmil- evo, but Hilmi Pasha informed him that he could not guarantee his safety, as the rev- olutionaries had plotted to kill .him. The informant continues that it ls esti- mated that there are over 70,000 people in the flelds .without shelter and starving. Hilm! Pasha has promised the consuls that he will assist the destitute people, but he has done nothing and even refuses to allow them to enter the town &nd beg for good Many cruelties perpetrated by Christians re attributed to Greek sples headed by a Groek bishop, who, with the Greek consuls, it s sald, are pald by the porte for their services, The Greeks are accused of fn- venting reports for the purpose of fanning the Mussulmans’ hatred of the Bulgarians. ‘The Turkidh functiondries openly scoff at the idea of reforms or European interven- tion, declaring that should armed Euro- pean forcey pome. the Tutks would imme- diately burn, destroy and massacre, leav- ing only bare flelds t!-rou‘hvut Macedonia. Vou Continuous reports of wholesale massa- eren’ of “Buiffafian ‘population ‘and the de- Struction of Bulgarian villages in Mace- fonia_are causing considerable excitement In political and general circles here. Pre- mier Petroff is sald to have informed the representatives of the powers in Sofia that nefther the government nor the Bulgarian people can witness with indifference the annintlation of the Bulgarian element in Macedonia and the devastation of the country, and unless the powers can find some measures of restraining Turkey's terrible repressive measures Bulgaria will be forced to depart from fits present atti- tude of etrict neutrality. While the pre- mier's Intimation was conveyed in the course of Informal conversation with the diplomats in Bofla, and in no sease intended as an officlal communication, it may be understood as ah indication that the pa- tience of the Bulgarian people is becoming exhapsted.

TH OM CLASHING OF AUTHORITY Militia and Oivil Officers of Uolorado Both Want Prisoner. \ PRESIDENT OF UNION IS ARRESTED Weork is Bef Resumed in Some of the Cripple Creek Mines with Miners from Other Stéten, COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 10.— It is announced from Cripple Creek that a clash between the civil and military au- thorities in the camp is looked for. Presi- dent C. G. Kennison of one of the district unions had trouble with a non-union miner this morning and was struck, He drew a gun but was disarmed before he could use it. Later he was arrested by the civil authorities and the military has now sur- rounded the Teller county jall with the re- ported intention of taking charge of the orisoner. . The great compresser of the Labelle Power company at Goldfield, furnishing light to several towns of the district and compressed air to several mines, started in motion this morning for the first time since the strike was declared, forcing air into the Golden Cycle, Vindicator, Findley, Theresa and Christmas mines and several of the amaller leases that recently started operations.

DENVER, Sept. 10.—Governor Peabody declared that suggestions of a conflict be- tween the commander of the state troops in Cripple Creek and the sheriff over the possession of a prisoner were not war- ranted. He declared that martial law has not been established in Cripple Creek and wil not be. General Bell and the troops, sald he, are in the district to ald the eivil authorities in maintaining order, not to supersede them. Regarding the case of President Kennison of the Cripple Creek Miners' union, the governor sald: 1 do not know whether General Bell has a right to take the prisoner from a sheriff or not, but I do not know that he will not take him. Governor Peabody is sald to have had a conference with General Bell over the telephone regarding the Kennison case, but nothing of its character was given out. Witness Disappears. VICTOR, Colo., Sept. 10.—Mike Rogers, a miner living at Cameron, has disappeared and his cabin has been burned. The fire is generally presumed to have been of in- cendiary origin. Rogers is believed by the authorities to have been the only man who saw the assault on James M. Stewart, the carpenter, ten days ago. Rogers has since protested that he did net recognize any of the men who accompanied Stewart from his home on the night when he was left at the roadside for dead. The man found dead near Dewitt with a bullet hole 1n his body has been identified as Pafrick Burns, a railroad laborer. Whether he was murdered or accldentally shot {s undetermined, but it is evident that the shooting had no connection with the strike or the presence of the artillery in the camp. C. E. Kennison was arrested and placed in jall this afternoon on a charge of car- rylng conceal weapons. I am gullty of the offense charged,” he said. “I carried a weapon for the sole purpose of defending my life. The guards at the El Paso mine sald they would stretch me up to an elec- tric light pole. I was brutally assaulted this morning and I drew a revolver in de- fensa of my life Wil Take Miners from Joplin.

Budd, chairman, reprosenting the Order of Rallway Conductors, speaking for himself and other members of the gemeral committee, said The report that a strike of Baltimore & ghlu employes is imminent is not true, here is no disagreement as yet, as we began only today to take up the various demands. Our committee has only friendl: relations with the railroad committee, a: we do mot look for anything else. There can no trouble until the company re- yerses the policy which it has adhered to Tor"years. We do not sxpect such & thing. Mitchell at Kansas City.

The Interstate Commérce commission to- day made public statistics covering parts of a general report om the state regula- tion and taxation of rallways in the United Btates in 1902. It shows that thirty states exercised control over rallways through commissions, and saye that the legisiative tendency during the last twelve years has been in the direction of more efficlent con- trol over rates. It 4s as follows: A study of the raflway statutes during the last twelve years indicates a slight dis- trust of the ability of ratiroad commis- glons, as at present organized, to control the raflway situation and a tendency toward including other corperations as weil railway corporations under the control tate boards.

He fortifies his statement with arguments based on his own experience and that of authortties, such as Trousseau Barth, Frankel and Seagaria, to show that all the symptoms of the iliness of Pope Leo XITI a8 stated in officlal bulletins by Drs Laponni and Massoni lead to the con clusion that the late pope was not affected by the pleurisy or pleurs pneumonia Prof. Cardarelll afirms ihat from the moment that bloody liquid appears in the pleura and s found through the thora centeats, especially when the fluld gathers deceltfully without pain or fever, or mani fest cause, or pleurisy, the dlagnosis of pleurlsy must be excluded, and that when the llquid forms in the right plourh it usually indicates cancer or hydrothorax in aged persons Forms of Senile Pleuriay. There are forms of senile pleurisy or pneumonia, he continues, In which fever, bain and cough are lacking, but these are almost without exception of a tuberculus nature. The declaration that the post- mortem examination confirmed the diag- nosis made by Drs, Lapponi and Mazzonl, the professor declares is not sufficient, as only careful miscropic examination in tiese cases can establish the real affection ©of the pléura. The professor's statement concluded as tollows: Hematic serum gathered deceltfully with- out fever, pain or cough in an old man of 8. with diminishing strength ehould have made the doctors think of cancer of the pleura or tuberculosis hydrothorax, instead of pleurisy, pleuro-pneumonia or senile pulmonary-Kepatization. but it is impossibie to make a diagmosis without having seen the patient and without precise data on the chemical nature of the eomposition of the liquid taken from the pleura. Faithful to a high pledge taken I have walted forty days from the death of the pope before making this publication.
