With hatchets concealed under their cloaks they entered the saloon of Jame? Barns, on Douglas avenue, and did not leave a complete piece of glass or a working slot machine in the place All show cases, plate glass windows and doors were broken into smithereens. Next they ran to John Herrig's saloon and had every? thing in the front of the room broken, when he appeared with a revolver, placed it at Mrs Nation's head and said that he would blow out ber bsains if she did not desist. She yielded and ran to the Carey hotel bar, t7bere three policemen met ber. She struck at Detective Sutton with a poker. He shoved ber aside and a youth struck bira in the face.

Unreasonable Increase in Rates During Past Year. Washington, Jao. 19-The start? ling increases made by the railways daring the past year iu the rates for transportation are showo by an in? spection of statistics io the possession of the Interstate Commerce Commis? sion, which show that of 824 changes ia classification made by carriers ns? iog rho official eastern 6oale, 818 pro? duced raises and only 6 redaction?. In over half, the increase waa over 40 per oent and io loss than one twenty-fifth it j was a9 little aa 15 per cent. Ic six j eases the rates were doubled, while the* avdrege increase was over one-third. Changes in the southern classification show 531 advances and only 105 re? ductions ; those in the western show 240 iooreases and only 17 redactions. By these changes in classification, therefore, rates upon a considerable part of freight traffic in all portioos of the Ucited States, many of them apply? ing on the mest common articles of merchandise, were very materially advanced In addition macy com? modity rates havo been withdrawn, rhos making the articles affected take sigher class rates. These changes were admittedly made, not because of any inequality io the classifications-not because some arti? cles were found to be paying too lew rates and others too high rates com paratively-but simply because the railways had determined to increase their revenues, and instructed thc classification committee for that purpose There was no claim of any unusual oeed of revenue. Not for years bad traffic been so heavy or gross reoeipts so large, bot it was insisted that the cost of operation had been enhanced and net revenues would therefore be decreased Comparisons have been made for three large Eastern systems, which show that the percentage of operating expenses to earoiogs was less in tbe year ending June 30, 1900. than for the corresponding year 1899, or for the average from 1890 to 1898 Another comparison of these statements shows greater net earnings per mile for 1900 tbao for 1899, or for the average from 1890 to 1898 It caoBot be said what effect these advances in rate, which prevailed daring the last half of the year 1900, may have had upon the re? sult for the entire year ; but when it is considered that gross reoeipts, aod i:ber< f re net revenues, enormously in creased daring that year, it is evident ?hat there is little in the olaim that in? creased cost of operation justified these *dv:ocrs io rate. Pooliog is prohibited by act of congress and any combination to raise rates is di8tinoiiy forbidden by the Sherman anti trust act, yet here is a case where in every part of the country earners have by ooncerted. action, without any notioe to shippers, and indeed against the vehement protest of shippers, advanced their rates apon a !ar?re portion of the merchandise carried under class rates by an average of one fcurtb to ooe third. The attorney genera! of the United Slates, mean while, sita rapine io bis office nod takes no steps to ourb the illegal extortion and combination of the roads. If this eort of thing can be done with respeot to ooe portion of railway traffic, | it can, it ts argaed, be done with respect to all of it ; if ra'63 can be advanced 25 per cent they can be still further advanced. Ii can no longer be Raid that a general advance ?D freight rate? is altogether a fancy, for it has become ao accomplished fact. Neither can it be said that the pablic cen escape such an advance, however, unjust. Han dreds of persocs have demanded relief from what has actually boen done. In i.'ome instances where the shipper was Htroog enough or the organisation to whioh he belonged was powerful enough, relief bas beeo voluntarily granted by tbe railways, but the general publie and the small shipper have been compelled to make the best of it While a uniform classification is an absolute necessity, it is nevertheless thought to be outrageons that a olassi fioation oommittee or a railway mana ger should be able by the stroke of a peo, without ooosoltation with the public, without eveo informing the public, arbitrarily to obange the rates at which freight ebal 1 be baodled Car? riers, it is admitted, should have the right to s?ree upoo a uniform "lanifi? cation, but when hundreds of shippers complain that a public servant ii-*? per? petrated a wroog upon the public io the discharge of a public duty, there should, it is said, be nome public tribu nal before whioh inquiry can he had and by whioh redress cao be ajuiini? tered, and there should bc public offi j cers free enough from corporate '.influ? ences to dare to insist th sob-a-esses against t-ucb t-hou'G be entetvC "HG | brought to trial.

West Pointe Cadets Grace fully Submit to Public Sentiment. West, Point, N Y.. Jan 19 -The congressional investigation of the West Point Military academy has borne fruit rather unexpectedly j Tonight when the congressmen were hurrying their inquiries to a termina tion, the cadets of all four classes heid a meeting in Grant ball and unanimously decided to abandon exercising and hazing of every form as well as the piactice of calling out fourth class men This is exactly what Gen Dick and the other mem? bers of the committee have been try? ing to impress on the cadets who have testified before them, as the only course open to them if they de sired to see the fair name of the United 8tates Military academy un? sullied and above reproach. The communication waa addressed to Supt. A L Mills who only got back from Washington this morning and he quickly brought it to Gen Dick Ir is as foilows : West Point, N Y . Jan. 19. 1901 To the Superintendent o? the United States Military Academy. Sir : Having become cognizant of the manner ia which the system of hazing as practiced at the military academy is regarded by the people of the United StsteB, we, the cadets of the; United States Military acad erny, while maintaining that we have pursued our system from the best motives, yet realizing that the deli berate judgment of the people should. in a country like ours, be above ail ^ther considerations, do reaffirm our former action abolishing the exer cising of fourth claes men, and do farther aeree to discontinue hazing, the requiring of fourth class men to eat anything against their desire and the practice of "calling out'' fourth class men by class action, and that we will not devise other similar prac tices to replace those abandoned. Respectfully submitted. For the first class, W R Betnsoo, Preaident Claes 1901 For the second class. B O Mabsffey. Presi dent Class 1902 For the third class, Quinn Gray, President Class 1903. For the fourth class, Joseph A. Atkias, representing Class 1904. After reading the communication, Gen. Diok said : "This voluntary act of the corps bas so impressed the committee that they have every reason to believe that in spirit and letter it will be carried ont by those cadets who are now at the military academy. This action of the men is greatly com? mended by the committee and will be read by the country with feelings of merited approbation " He thanked Col Miles for the kind ness and courtesy shown the commit* tee since they came here He also said that the committee would go back to congress with the kindest feelings and best wishes for the academy aod all connected with it. The committee then adjourned to meet 8gain in Washington at 10 o'clock on Monday morning. ATLANTA KIDNAPPING. Atlanta, Ga, Jan 20.-Mr N H.
