ill Paso, Tex., I*eb. 12.— Fitzsimmons has
concluded his training and is now taking
things easy. He said to the News man to-
day that he never felt better in his life
and was prepared to make a fight with
whiskers on it.

guine. it is evident from the tone of the tie-

English-speaking people.
House of Common*.
London, Felx 12.—In the house of com-
mons to-day the debate on the address in
reply to the queen's speech was resumed.
Mr. John Dillon, member for East Mayo
and Parnellite, said he would be surprised
if the "beggarly character of the references
to Ireland in the speech" did not more
firmly fix in the minds of Irishmen the con-
viction that nothing could be obtained from
England except by violent agitation. Con-
tinuing, Mr. Dillon contrasted the treat-
ment of Dr. Jameson's fouv with the
treatment of Irish political prisoners, and
said he would oppose the additional ex-
penditures proposed for the navy unless
part of the surplus was devoted to Ireland.
Mr. Dillon also announced an amendment
to the address censuring the government
for not proposing self government for Ire-
land. They were taunted. Mr. Dillon said,
bv the government with having lost con-
trol of the Irish nationalists in America,
lie regretted this loss of control and the
withholding of the support they had re-
ceived therefrom for many years, but 110
English statesman, he asserted, who was
anxious to solve the Irish question would
rejoice that the Irish in America had lost
faith in constituent agitation.
Not long ago. Mr. Dillon further stated,
there was a great deal of talk about Brit-
ish warships blowing up American cities.
Such language, he added, had happily
ceased, and the English people had learned
that President Cleveland's message was not
an election dodge, but spoke the voice of
the American nation, which was not afraid
to face the arbitrament of war if the Eng-
lish refused arbitration. But arbitration
was to be accepted now, after America had
been forced to threaten. It would have
been more decent if Great Britain had ac-
cepted arbitration when Secretary Olney
suggested it. He warned the government
in conclusion that the Irish party would re-
sist to the utmost any idea of war between
Great Britain and the United States.
Mr. John Redmond, Parnellite member
for Waterford, combated the marquis of
Salisbury's declaration that home rule was
dead, and he wanted to know what was
the present attitude of the liberal leaders
toward home rule, whether they were still
in alliance with the nationalists, and what
were the terms of the alliance.
Mr. Gerald Balfour, chief secretary for
Ireland, in the course of a lengthy reply to
the Irish leaders, said that the attitude of
the government toward home rule would
be determined by what they believed to be
the merits of the case, and that no consid-
eration of the difficulty or danger abroad
or in the colonies would for a moment in-
duce the government to depart from the
attitude they had taken on this question.
The house rose at 5.o0 p. m.
Jameson's Inxtiifutors.
London, Feb. 12.—The Daily Telegraph
will to-morrow publish a Berlin dispatch
which says that leading personages there
are in possession of convincing evidence
that the Jameson raid was wholly instigat-
ed and the expense defrayed by six well
known financiers, formerly German sub-
jects, and without the knowledge of the
chartered South Africa company.
Reply to llaynrd'a Beqiiettt.
London, Feb. 12.—The Times this morning
publishes Ambassador Bayard's request of
the British government for information on
Venezuelan affairs. The note, which is
dated February 3, informs Lord Salisbury
of the appointment by the president of the
Venezuelan commission, and says that the
commission would be grateful for any as-
sistance that could be obtained by the
friendly co-operation and assistance of the
governments of Great Britain and Vene-
zuela.
in reply Lord Salisbury says that her
majesty's government is at present collect-
ing the documents relating to the boundary
question that have for some years been
discussed between Great Britain and Ven-
ezuela in order that they may be presented
to parliament as soon as the collection is
complete and ready for presentation. Her
majesty's government, he adds, will take
pleasure in forwarding copieu to your ex>
cellency.
To this Mr. Bayard replied in a note of
thanks to Lord Salisbury for his prompt
and courteous response.
An editorial in the Standard expresses
the view that Lord Kosebery and Sir Wil-
liam Vernon Harcourt's admirably con-
ceived expressions will allay what remains
of the ruffled feeling in America.
Venezuela and Great Britain.
London, Feb. 12.—It is announced from a
good source that, following the advice of
the United States, Venezuela has practical-
ly decided to send a representative to Lon-
don, with power to open direct negotiations
with the government of Great Britain for a
settlement of the boundary dispute.
Riiflxia and Bulgaria.
New York, Feb. 12.—A dispatch to the
Herald from St. Petersburk says; An arti-
cle which appeared in the Neue Frei Pres3
says that Austria has not interfered in the
international affairs of the Balkan states
but only on condition that no other coun-
try should do so. This created an angry
feeling here, as Russia has no mind to let
the fruits of her political victory be shared
by anyone else. A good deal of strong talk
is heard on the subject, the tenor of which
is reflected in an article in the Novoe
Vremya, which says:
"Russia's influence in Bulgaria is based
upon the treaty of Berlin, and in any case
the Austrian government's talk about equal
influence makes no difference here. Russia
has a right to have a preponderating influ-
ence in proportion to the sacrifices she has
made in behalf of Bulgaria. No other con-
dition can be admitted in St. Petersburg."

Port Louis, Island of Mauritius. Feb. 11.—
\ French newspaper published 011 the isl-
and of Reunion prints a message from its
correspondent at Antananarivo, dated Jan-
uary 24. declaring that a great conspiracy
has been discovered there. The corre-
spondent asserts that 4<|00 Hovas have at-
tacked the French, but were repulsed with
a loss of 9000 killed. The correspondent
also says a rumor has reached him that
a number of French officers and soldiers
have been murdered and fourteen Hova
chiefs condemned to death. He adds that
the French consul ordered them to be
shot immediately, and that several other
chiefs were sentenced to transportation.
The foregoing news is not officially con-
firmed.
The Abyssinian Trouble.
New York. Feb. 12.—A dispatch to the
Herald from Rome says: The Fanualla
states that General Bartiera has cut Mene-
link's lino of operations against the Masso-
wah.
The Opinione declares that in the present
critical situation the expedition to Uarrar
can not be carried out. It advises that Gen-
eral Bartiera should take decisive action in
order to prevent the campaign from lasting
until autumn, it is not probable that there
will be a battle before March. The minis-
try have rejected Menelink's propositions
for peace.

tion that both political parties in Great

Constantinople, Feb. 12.—It was an-

have induced the insurgents of that place
to accept the conditions of the porte.
Therefore revolutionary hynthicakists now
living at Zeitoun are to be expelled from
the town, the Zeitounlis are to be allowed
to retain their old weapons, but are to sur-
render the modern rifles, and the 6000 Ar-
menian refugees now at Zeitoun are to
agree to return to their villages. Jn regard
to the proposed revision of taxation the
porte will treat directly with the Zeitounlis.
Cannibalism in Formosa.
Victoria, B. C„ Feb. 12.-Dreadful stories
come from Yokohama of the treatment of
Japanese by the Formosa rebels, some cor-
respondents going so far as to say the Chi-
nese practice cannibalism. Early in Janu-
ary the rebels took possession of the vil-
lage of Kelung. A detachment of Japanese
was sent to attack the place and succeed-
ed in driving the rebels off and entered the
village, which was afterward fired. The
correspondent of the Japan Mail, speaking
of the arrival of the Japanese troops in the
Village, says:
"The troops were horrified at the ghastly
spectacle or nineteen bodies of their coun-
trymen, beheaded and frightfully mangled.
They were railway workmen who had met
death at the hands of the fiends. Many of
your readers may not be aware that can-
nibalism exists among the Chinese, al-
though there is probably not a foreigner In
Formosa but knows of the eating of por-
tion® of bodies of savages, or is unaware
of markets in Formosan settlements con-
taining human flesh of savages for sale.
During the outbreak of 1881, so great was
the loss of life that savage flesh was
brought in and sold the same as pork in
the markets. Mutilated bodies of Japanese
were found, several of them disemboweled
and with their hearts cut out, aJso minus
other parts. Some were found who had
beuu burned at the stake. The charred

El Paso. Tex., Feb. 12.—The people of this
:ity are hot in the collar to-day over a dis-
patch sent out from Austin and printed in
a south Texas morning paper. The dis-
patch referred to says El Paso Is in the
hands of the boldest gang of toughs ever
gotten together in any one spot on earth;
that hold-ups and roll-overs are so com-
mon as to attract hardly any attention,
and that reports of these lawless occur-
rences are being kept out of the press so as
not to alarm prospective visitors to the ad-
vertised fights. As a matter of fact this is
a libel on El Paso, and has not even a tinge
of truth. There has not been a hold-up or
a roll-over here during the past ten days.
So far as is known there has not been a
disturbance of any kind beyond a few fisti-
cuffs or street brawls.
In regard to the pulling off of the fights,
there is no apparent change. Dan Stuart
stands pat and says there will be no
change in the original programme. Gover-
nor Ahumada says the fights will not take
place in Mexico and General Mabry says
they can not come off on Texas soil. So
there, you have it. The visiting sports are
not us confident to-night as they have been,
although many of them claim a willingness
to lay wagers that the big mill will be
pulled off Friday. Charlie Seymour, sport-
ing editor of the Chronicle, this afternoon
offered to bet 51(H) that Maher and Fita-
simmons would get together on schedule
time.
A rumor in regard to the co-operation of
the Texas and Mexican authorities to pre-
vent the successful termination of the car-
nival on either side of the line is responsi-
ble for the dampening of the talent's ardor.
The rumor is to the effect that Governor
Ahumada of Chihuahua has called 011 Gen-
eral Mabry for assistance from his rangers
to stop the fights in Mexico and that Gen-
era! Mabry has wired Governor Culberson
to know what to do in the premises. There
may be nothing In this story, but a promi-
nent citizen of El Paso says it is true. He
further stated that a telegram would be
sent to the governor requesting him to
"hands off' so far as Mexico was con-
cerned. as it would be no more nor less
than a "persecution" of Texas citizens for
the rangers of the state to follow them
into Mexico so long as they violate 110
Texas laws.
A sensation was caused here this morning
by the announcement that 200 cavalrymen
had arrived here from Chihuahua with
blood in their eyes and a determination to
stop the fights at all hazards. This after-
noon, however, the rumor is denied, and the
200 cavalrymen have dwindled down to 15.
Those who are here have no appearance of
ferociousness. They are just ordinary war-
riors.
It is impossible to turn a corner to-night
without falling over a half dozen rumors.
One is that a special train will be used by
Stuart and two pugs which will leave here
some time at night and land the boys at
a spot in Mexico some few miles from this
city, where the big fight will be pulled off
before the battle ground can be located or
any interference result. This rumor is not
verified, but many of the sports give it
credence.
Martin Julian complains that the news-
papers are giving him thewors^ of it. He
states that instead of kicking and holding
out for everything in sight he and Fitzsim-
mons have made every concession request-
ed by Stuart. He also denies that they
have made any demand of $10,000 from the
kinetoscope people or that they have made
any "spiel" of any kind. "All we want,"
said Julian, "is a fair deal aAd a fight on
soil where there is no prohibitory laws.
That much Stuart has promised us and we
have confidence in his ability to give it to
us. Furthermore, he deserves success, and
we propose to help him achieve it in every
possible way,"
Julian then proceeded to speak of Fitz-
simmons' excellent condition and to pre-
dict that he will put Maher out in short
order.
The following noted sports and pugilists
are now here, including to-day's arrivals:
John L. Sullivan, Paddy Ryan, Maher,
Fitzslmmons, Leeds, Everhart, Dixon,
Bright Eyes, Marshall, Walcott, Jimmy
Carroll, Connelly, Bat Masterson, Parson
Davies, O'Rourke, Julian. Quinn, George
Siler, Jimmy Wakeiee, Sam Austin, Al
Smith and a perfect throng of lesser lights,
Including correspondents of the leading
newspapers of the country. Smith is here
to challenge the winner of the big battle
to a go with Corbett, heavyweight cham-
pionship and any purse that may be of-
fered. He is prepared, it is said, to post
a big forfeit.
Julian IIus Woes.
El Paso, Tex., Feb. 12— Relative to the
charge made that this city is in the hands
of toughs, inquiry develops the fact that
things have been so orderly and quiet that
no addition has even been made to the reg-
ular police force of the city.
General Mabry says Fitzslmmons has as
sured him that he will not fight in secret;
that he agreed to fight before a crowd, and
proposes to do so or not at all.
As to the story of Bat Masterson and his
hundred men, which brought General Ma-
bry here, there is nothing in it. Master-
son's men will simply be there to assist in
keeping the peace and to prevent fakirs and
thugs irom preying on the spectators.
Sam Austin to-night received a telegram
from Richard K. Fox stating that the na-
tional sporting club of London has cabled
an offer of JJ1500 for the Maher-Fltzsim-
mons match in case it is not pulled off
here; also that each of the men will be al-
lowed £100 for expenses in case the fight is
not pulled off.
According to Martin Julian. General Ma-
bry has adopted the tactics of Governor
Clarke of Arkansas to stop the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons fight at Hot Springs. In other
words, he has decided to see what a little
"bluffing" will accomplish. Julian, who
really has no idea of infringing on any
law. informs The News correspondent that
Mabry sent for him this morning and told
him that he desired to give him a fair
warning that no fighting would be tolerated
.on Texas or neutral territory.
"General Mabry told me that if we pro-
posed to fight on Texas or neutral soil,"
said Julian, "we had better call it off at
once, as it would not be allowed. He fur-
ther said that he was here to stop it and
that he had the men to do it. He further
informed me that if any shooting became
necessary to prevent the fight his men
would shoot straight and that they would
have to aim at the men violating the law.
He mentioned Stuart, myself, Fitzslmmons,
Maher and Quinn. I told him 1 had never
intended violating any statute by fighting
on soil where th"re is prohibitory law; that
I was acting solely on Stuart's assurances
that no law would be infringed, 1 further
told him that if we should happen to get
on territory where glove contests were pro-
hibited that it would be through no inten-
tion of ours to do so and that if any shoot-
ing was done I hoped he would tell his men
not to aim at Fitzsimmons or Julian.'' and
the Australian's manager smiled in a way
that did not give evidence of fear. If Gen-
eral Mabry really made this talk he was
doubtless joking or bluffing. In the first
place it would be maudlin imbecility to
think for a moment that an effort will be
made to pull off the fights in Texas after
the passage of the prohibitory law by the
state legislature and after Stuart surren-
dered to the majesty of the law by declar-
ing the fights off at Dallas. If he had at-
tempted to bring off the contests in Texas
he certainly would not have come way out
to El Paso when there would have been
twice as big a crowd in Dallas or north of
Texas. In the second place, even if the at-
tempt was made to have the fights on a
disputed strip, on territory which is in con-
troversy, General Mabry would scarcely
take the responsibility of instructing the
rangers to shoot down the men for the rea-
son that he would be acting on doubtful
authority at least. Should any shooting be
done and fatal results ensue a test would
be doubtless made relative to the actual
ownership of the soil on which the shooting
occurred, and if the test should result in
displacing the claim of this statu on the
II come off if any of tfcem
do," he replied, "but 1 dott*t believe we
will fight, somehow or other, though I
hope we will.".
"How many rounds will it take you to
win?"
"About two, I think: not more than
four. But 1 am not taking any chances. I
am a law abiding citizen and do not pro-
pose to infringe any laws. 1 positively will
not violate any law if 1 know it."
Are you guaranteed protection?"
"Yes, by word of mouth, but we have
no bonded protection that I know of. We
were ready to fight last Thursday, and it
would all have been over with now, but
the suckers would not agree to It."
Was Governor Ahumada over to see you
yesterday?"
"No, he sent me word that he was
hounded by newspaper men and would
come some other time." And Lanky Bob
smiled broadly. Then he asked: "Do you
think I'm l>ing? 1 never lie when I can
help It."
"Are you going to work any more?"
"Not a bloody lick. 1 don't need it."
Flu tiring «»** the Place.
Austin. Tex.. Feb. 12.—Bets are even here
that Stuart will pull off the prise fight.
In official quarters it seems some infor*
mation has been received as to where it
will take place. Maps are being examined
and fingers run west on the Southern Pa-
cific to Benson, in Arizona, at the junc-
tion with the Sonota road, and thence
trace the latter line to Nogales. in Mexico.
It is claimed It will take a week to get
Mexican troops to that point unless oxer
the Southern Pacific, which line will not
furnish them transportation.
General Mnliry Talks.
El Paso, Tex., Feb. 12.—General Mabry
was seen to-night by a News man and he
denies that he said all that Julian credits
him with.
"What I did say," he continued, "was
that if we should run upon them while
they were secretly engaged in violating the
Texas laws the rangers would have orders
to shoot. That is all 1 said in warning him
and Fitzslmmons. and I did not mention
the name of Stuart, or any other name, in
that connection."
General Mabry also denies that any steps
toward assisting the Mexican authorities
to prevent the fight from coming off in
Mexico have been taken by his ranger
force. "In the first place," he said, "Gov-
ernor Ahumada has made nb request for
our assistance, and in the second we have
made 110 offer to go over into Mexico to
assist him, hence Governor Culberson and
1 have had no telegram 011 the subject. 1
have made no arrangements for the Texas
rangers to go into Mexico and do not ex-
pect to make any such arrangements.
There is nothing in the story at all."
In speaking of his presence here General
Mabry said: "I am here, as I told you
before, to enforce the law in any territory
over which Texas claims jurisdiction. Only
that and nothing more. Stuart tells me
very earnestly that he has no intention of
violating Texas laws, and I believe he
means it. But when 1 saw in the papers
that Masterson was going to have 100 men
under him at the ringside to protect the
fighters the inference was that these men
proposed to violate the law. That is what
brought me and my men to El Paso, if
no attempt is made to light on Texas soil
then that lets me out entirely."

GREAT BATTLE FOLLOWED.
Hard anil Clone Flfthtlng 1.anting for
SI* Hour*, and 4.N InsurKent. Were
Killed and More Wounded.
Havana, Feb. 12.—A dispatch received
here from Santa Clara, capital of the prov-
ince of that name, from General Oliver, an-
nounces a serious defeat of the Insurgents
under Seratin Sanehe* and Mirabel, two
of the most important insurgent leaders
outside of the province of Havana.
The following details of the engagement
have been received here: General Oliver,
hearing the Seratin Sanchez and Mirabel,
at the head of a numerous force* of in-
surgent*. wire moving on Camajuani, or-
dered Colonel Ijopei, at the head of 3110
cavalry and infantry, to leave Remedios.
northeast of Camajuani, where the troops
were in garrison, and to engase the enemy.
The Spanish troops left Remedlos at 7
a. m. (date not given: supposed to be Mon-
day) and arrived at Camajuani at 8 o'clock
the same night. The troops were aroused
at an early hour the next morning and
left Camajuani, going in the direction of
Palo Prieto, where the advance guard of
the insurgents was stationed. The latter
opened tire upon the troops as soon as the
soldiers were well within range. For some
time the Spaniards did no! l'oply, wishing
to get within better shooting distance lie-
fore engaging the Insurgents. When the
Spanish column was well In hand and in
battle form, Colonel I.opez ordered the at-
tack commenced.
This was done with effective, sharp and
well directed tire being kept up by the
troops until the advance guard of the in-
surgents retreated upon the main body
after having replied vigorously. The Span-
lards continued to advance over difficult
ground. The Insurgents' sharp shooters
kept up a harassing lire ss they retreated.
But when the troops reached a large open
space of territory having high ground to
the right and left front, the insurgents
suddenly appeared in strong force to the
right and left of the troops, and another
body of the enemy, afterward ascertained
to be a strong reinforcement of insurgents
under Leoneto Vidal and Betancourt,
moved upon Colonel Lopex'g forces in the
center. Colonel Lopez was thus in danger
of being surrounded by a much superior
force of Insurgents. To his right and on
his left were the main bodies of the at-
tacking insurgents under Serafln Sanchez
and Mirabel. They were composed of
mounted and dismounted men in about
equal numbers. But the center force of
the insurgents was mainly Infantry. 1'nder
these circumstances, Colonel I.opez ordered
the troops to form a square. This was
done with great coolness under the tire of
the enemy, anil eventually the insurgents
charged upon the square from three sides
with machetes, the rear of the Spanish col-
umn being somewhat protected by a stone
wall and natural defenses In the shape of
thick brushwood and a ravine difficult to
cross.
The insurgents charged with the greatest
courage in spito of the fire of the troops,
using their machetes and cheering tor
Cuba. Their first attack was repulsed, but
they were not long in returning to the
charge with the same gallantry. This time
the insurgents reached almost up to the
Spanish square, but were once more driven
back, this time in disorder. The insurgent
leaders made another attempt to rallv their
forces and a small body of Insurgent'cav-
alry was led to the attack for a third
time. But when about a dozen of their
horses had been shot down the whole of
them were thrown Into confusion, the In-
surgents retreating for good, after, how-
ever. keeping up for nearly an hour a
scattering tire which was severe enough to
prevent the troops from pursuing the
enemy.
It was not until 5 o'clock in the afternoon
that tiling ceased and fatigue parties were
sent out to gather up the insurgent dead
and wounded, while the Spanish cavalry
pursued the retreating bodies of the ene-
my. The soldiers found fortv-elght dead
Insurgents on the field and it was estimat-
ed by fairly accurate accounts that the en-
emy carried away 130 wounded men in ad-
dition to a number of their wounded who
fell too close to the Spanish square to per-
mit their friends carrying them off.
The Spanish cavalry, In pursuing the In-
surgents, captured a number of country
people, supposing them to have Informa-
tion regarding the mW-ements of the ene-
my. The prisoners, after having been ques-
tioned by Colonel Lopez, were released
They say that the Insurgent loss is much
greater than estimated by the Spanish of-
ficers, as they saw a number of dead being
carried away by the insurgent cavalrv and
the country people also assert that the
number of wounded carried off by the en-
emy was quite 300.
The Spanish troops behaved throughout
with the greatest courage, and owing to
the admirable position selected by Colonel
Lopez for the formation of the square the
loss sustained by the troops was slight in
view of the fact that the fighting lasted
over si* hours. The troops lost Major To-
mez, Sergeant Onea and forty soldiers
killed, and had a lieutenant and five sol-
diers wounded.
The ravine behind the spot where the
Spanish square formed turned out to be
an admirable field hospital, for there the
army surgeons were enabled to care for
the wounded while the bullets of the ene-
my whistled harmlessly over them
General Weyler has complimented Colonel
Lopez.
Near Itaba the Insurgents attacked a
train escorted by volunteers of the Cuenca
battalion and a few soldiers. The insur-
gents were beaten off with a loss of live
killed and a quantity of arms and ammu-
nition. They retired with their wounded
Five soldiers were wounded during the en-
gagement.
A column of troops commanded by
Colonel Perats has had two skirmishes
with the insurgents dn the vicinity of Je-
sus Marl, province of Matanzas. During
the first exchange of shots the Insurgents
lost four killed and retreated. They were
pursued by the troops and overtaken at
the plantation of Ejecin, where the second
skirmish took place, with the result that
the insurgents lost fifteen killed, and in
addition the troops captured six prisoners
and a number of rifles. Only one soldier
was killed during the two skirmishes, al-
though several were wounded. A band of
insurgents commanded by Castillo made an
attack yesterday upon the village of Mana-
gua, near this city.
As if this were not bud enough, a de-
tachment of volunteers belonging to Na-
cerano, a village close by Managua, was
also threatened by the insurgent*, and the
volunteers, without making any defense
worth mentioning, surrendered their arms
and ammunition and joined the insurgents.
The troops at Managua, however, made a
brilliant defense, keeping up a hot fire
upon the enemy until the latter retreated
with a loss of four killed, and leaving a
number of rifles and machetes on the
ground. The insurgents also carried away
a number of wounded, Including Castillo
their leader.
From preparations made by the head-
quarters' staff, it Is surmised that exten-
slvo operations are soon to be inaugurated
against the insurgents. Horses for the In-
fantry soldiers have been arriving from
different sections for a number of days
past, and the work of teaching the foot
soldiers to ride Is being continued from
morning until night. The main object in
mounting the Infantrymen is to enable
them to travel longer distances and make
great.tr speed than heretofore in pursuing
the Insurgents.
The reports asked for by General Wevlnr
have been received from nearly every quar-
ter and it is understood he finds the sit-
uation more 1'avorable than he anticipated.
He has dictated a number of orders to the
commanders of different districts and the
ammunition and supplies landed from the
Alfonso XII anil other steamers which
have recently arrived here from Spain are
being forwarded under strung escorts to
the different points at which this material
is needed. A number of armored cars have
been added to those heretofore in operation
during U» past few days.

RAILWAY INTERESTS.
Southwestern Traffic AMNUciation.
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 12.—The executive
board of the Southwestern traffic associa-
tion convened to-day at Chairman Day's
headquarters for the consideration of a
number of important subjects on the dock-
ets. The question of statistical data gov-
erning the traffic was considered, and after
a full discussion of the change® proposed
it was determined to continue the present
form.
The committee from the rate committee
recommended a reduction in rates from
New Orleans to Houston and Galveston on
soap, glassware, wire and nails, wrought
iron pipe and some other commodities of
minor importance, and the executive board
adopted the recommendation with the un-
derstanding that the differentials in rates
from St. Louis. Chicago, et6., should be
made at the same time. The question of
rates applicable from points in Chicago and
Milwaukee territory via Chicago and
Northwestern, Chleago, Milwaukee and St.
Paul ami Wisconsin Central railroads was
given consideration, and a resolution was
adopted opening the St. Louis and East
llannibal gateways to the movement of
traffic to Texas points and points in the re-
public of Mexico, allowing lines north of
these gateways the established percentage
divisions, witn a minimum of 10 cents per
loo pounds. A further consideration of traf-
lio matters will be had to-morrow.
Xo Truth in It.
Houston, Tex., Feb. 12.—The Galveston
special printed here this morning to the ef-
fect that the Galveston. La Porte and
Houston railroad was being transferred to
the Houston and Texas Central, which in
turn was to be transferred by lease to the
Chicago, Rock Island and Texas has caused
a great deal of talk in railroad circles in
this city, but found few if any believers. It
has long been believed that the La Porte
road would finally pass into the possession
of the Southern Pacific company, that be-
ing the only large system now represented
here that has no outlet to the gulf, but no-
body could be l'ound who believed that the
transfer had been made or w as about to be
made.
Receiver T. \V. House of the Galveston,
La Porte and Houston smiled when asked
about the alleged sale.
"There is absolutely no truth in the re-
port." said he, "and I do not see how such
a thing could have been started. In the
order creating the receivership there was
nothing referring to the sale of the road,
and we certainly could not make a transfer
without an order from the court. We are
going ahead doing what we were ordered to
do. completing the road at both ends and
ballasting that part heretofore built. We
are putting on 100 carloads a day of shell
and gravel ballast. The bridge across the
bay will be completed In a little over a
month, and the bayou bridge will be begun
as soon as the material, much of which has
been shipped, arrives."
Receiver M. T. Jones was not at his office
and could not be seen.
When Major Waldo, agent of the receiv-
ers. was asked about it he said:
"The report is absurd on its face. I am
sure that neither of the receivers told any-
body that they were making a transfer of
the road, though 1 have not seen either of
them since.I read the report. The receiv-
ers could not sell the road; that is no part
of the duty assigned them in the order of
the court making their appointments."
Dr. T. J. Boyles, vice president of the
company that owns the road, said:
"I reckon it must be so. as It is in the
paper, but what Uread there is all I know
about it."
Inquiry about the general offices of the
Southern Pacific and Houston and Texas
Central elicited no information on the sub-
ject but part of the scheme met with laugh-
ter of the most derisive brand.
"I have always believed that the Galves-
ton. La Porte and Houston would finally
pass into the control of the Southern Pa-
cific company," said an official of the great
Huntington system, "and that part of the
report seems reasonable enough outside of
the feature of having the receivers make a
transfer of the property without an order
of sale from the court which has the mat-
ter in charge: but as for the Houston and
Texas Central being controlled by the Rock
Island, that Is absurd. The Southern Pa-
cific is not in the habit of leasing its feed-
ers. and especially such profitable ones as
the Houston and Texas Central, to other
systems. The Rock Island might make ter-
minal arrangements with the Houston and
Texas Central, but you can gamble on the
fact that it will not control that road."
"The Idea that Huntington would sur-
render control of the Central to the Rock
Island folks is too absurd for contempla-
tion." said Captain M. G. Howe.
"Huntington is more likely to swallow a
dozen other such roads as the Central than
disgorge one," declared a well known traf-
fic man. #

Many a free man
who is sick would
willingly change
places with a
healthy convict. A
man might as well
be shut out of en-
joyment one way
as -nother. If he
is shut up in a cell,
he cannot engage
in active pleasures.
He cannot see the
beauties of nature
and art, but he can
I imagine them, and
so get some benefit
|froai them. A
man who is sick
has these things before him, but he doesn't
see them as they exist. He cannot look on
anything with appreciative eyed. His phy.
. ical condition warps his vision and his men-
ta.:ty. He cannot enjoy anything, no matter
ho\* njoyable it may be in the abstract. A
man wub a foul taste in his mouth, with a
biiioofr heuu&' t.? ?nd with poisonous refuse
matter circulating all through his body can-
not enjoy anything. He honestly believes
that the world is all wrong, and that it is a
mighty poor place to be in. He is blue,
despondent, cynical. Life isn't worth liv-
ing to him. Such a simple thing eause9
this condition that it is absurd and ridicu-
lous to think of a sensible man remaining
in it. Symptoms like these come from con-
stipation. It is the most prevalent of all
causes of sickness. It makes a man worth-
less lor work or pleasure. It is a stubborn
trouble when you do not treat it properly,
and a simple one when you do. It is cured
by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They were
made for this purpose, and no other. They
accomplish this purpose as no other prep-
aration ever did. Au unscrupulous druggist
may try to sell you something else. Look
out! It is your health that is at stake. It
is your health against an extra profit on the
thing he says is "just as good." Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets—don't forget —
don't take anything else.
