Mr. Routkow 8ky, the financial agent of the Russian Government at "Washington, has, by di rection of the home authorities, made the following official statement regarding the recent note of the Russian Minister of Finance relating to the Brussels sugar convention: "In view of the erroneous Interpreta tion by many organs of the American press of the object and meaning of the recent note of the Russian Minister of Finance ent to various governments whose representatives signed the Brus sels convention on suppression of boun ties on sugar, M. Routkowsky, financial agent of the Russian Government In the United States, has been instructed to Canadian Government, said Canadian traders could not compete successfully in South Africa until such time as a di rect steamship line between South Africa and Canada Is established. Mr. Jardlne said that If his report on'trade prospects In South Africa was satisfactory, -the Canadian Government wofald be willing to devote money to such a purpose and that he hoped to have a steamship line running from Halifax to South Africa within six months. TOWN RUN BY MOB. Trolley Car Company Insisted on Br calcine: Through, Quarantine. KNIGHTSTOWN, Ind., Aug. 3. The village of Charlottesville, five miles west of here, was run by a mob for several hours tonight. The Sheriff of Hancock County, with 75 armed deputies, Is on the scene. The trouble arose from an at tempt to prevent the running of Its cars by the Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Company. Recently a quarantine was established by Hancock County against this city on account of smallpox here. The Traction Company stopped running Its cars until yesterday.

Increase In Trnnlc-Llne Slilpmenta of Provisions Freight Receipts at Lake Ports. The commercial movements of the great staple commodities produced in the in terior of the country are necessarily sub ject to something of a lull during the mid Summer transition from one crop year to apother. There Is, nevertheless. In the data collected by the Treasury Bureau of Statistics on internal commerce up to the end of June, an opportunity for half-year comparisons of commercial movements, such as those of livestock, grain, provis ions and produce. The five Western live stock markets of Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha, St. Louis and St. Joseph, taken as an index of the trade generally, re port total receipts of meat-producing etock. Including cattle, hogs, and sheep, between January 1 and June 20, Inclusive, ing with June totaled 2.SS6.0O4 tons, com pared with 2,211.703 tons In 190L Ordinar ily these receipts are about equally divided between anthracite and bituminous, but thus far this year there has been a loss of 40 per cent In anthracite tonnage, while bituminous receipts increased 10 per cent over those of the first six months of 1901. Commercial Movements In tke South The first 10 months of the cotton year In Southern territory show receipts of 10.021,473 bales, of which 7,435,013 bales ar rived at seaboard points, 1.043,425 bales entered Into overland shipments, end 1,502,000 bales were taken by Southern mills. The cotton manufacturing Indus try of the cotton states has, therefore, reached a point where It takes approxi mately 15 per cent of the American cotton yield. The yearly consumption of the en tire United States up to 1877-78 had never reached the dimensions of the Southern consumption during the past 10 mgntha. Iron shipments In Southern territory ,ln the past six months reported a gain of 19 per cent over those, of the same length of time In 190L Six producing districts shipped 9S7.716 tons of pig and pipe Iron, compared with SS0.047 tons for the corre sponding period of last year. Yellow pine shipments from Southwestern territory showed that 744.036,957 feet were mar keted in the first elx months of 1900; 9S2, 421,041 feet in -six months of 1901, or a PRIZES DRAW THE RACERS STAR HORSES "WILL, BE SEEN ON NORTHWEST CIRCUIT.

Two, Dr Hammond and Uncle John, are owned by H. "W. Goodall, of San Francisco. The third is a Canadlanfhorsc named Mangllce, which Is said to have championship prospects. Kate Lurary will be shipped out from Denver, and the Higglns Brothers, the noted racing men of Montana, will send down Umatilla, and all will compete for the speed purses, which amount to $15. 000.

Horsemen of the Middle "West appear to be recognizing the value of the North west as a developing "ground for their racers. Last week Mr. "White, of Park River. N. D., sent three well-bred colts to Portland and placed them In training at the Irvlngton track. The colts are 2, 3 and 4 years old. and their arrival at the park was as much of a surprise to the trainers as a start by Dan Patch would be to the local fraternity. "Work on the new Riverside r6adway is progressing rapidly and soon the horse men will havo a mile drive on which to speed their racers. The speedway when completed will be between 70 and SO feet In width, and its grade will be very slight. For years horsemen have been strug gling for such a driveway, and In the near future they will have a road upon which, they can try the speed of their horses. Congressman Tongue has" a stable of promising young trotters and pacers at work on the Hillsboro track. Under the direction of the new trainer they a're I showing up remarkably well, and the owner of Lord Derby, 2:05, announced today that he had decided to withdraw the winner of the ?40,0C0 match race at Hartford from, his grand circuit engage ment at Buffalo this week and drive tho horse himself In a race to a wagon, with a blue ribbon for the prize, at Empire City Park next Saturday, The New York; Driving Club, of which Mr. Smathers Is & member, will hold Its fifth meeting at the Yonkers track at that time, and In order to make the. occasion a memorable one he has agreed to drive Lord Derby against C.

BUSY SCENES AT THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE ELKS' CARNIVAL ASSOCIATION. communicate to the press that In case of a negative answer of the powers to the above note and the establishing of a countervailing duty on Russian sugar, the Imperial Russian Government shall consider the establishment of such a duty as an infraction of Its commercial treat ies with powers so doing, and therefore free from obligations Imposed by them and at liberty not to comply with their stipulations whenever it will be to the advantage of Russia." Many of the American newspapers, M. Routkowsky complained, have interpreted the note referred to as a move on the part of the Russian Government to in augurate a European coalition against American trade. Such an understanding, he declared, Is entirely incorrect and does the Russian Government an Injus tice. The note was sent by the Russian Government to the governments partici pating In the Brussels sugar conference and to the American Government merely as an act of courtesy, the United States not having been a party to that con ference. In retaliation for the countervailing duty against Russian bounty sugars Im posed by the United States, Russia now imposes her maximum, tariff rates. The object of the statement issued today is to show that Russia Is not engaged in any effort to wage -a campaign against Ameriacn trade, and to mako plain to the parties to the Brussels conference that tho Imposition of countervailing du ties against Russian sugar will be met as it was in tho case of the United States. The question of legality of coun tervailing duty on Russian sugar Is pend ing in the United States Supreme Court stopped the second cir, arrested the mo torman and sidetracked the car. Later other cars wore run through the town. Late last night a car was assailed by a fusillade of shots from the guards and villagers, and C. M.

Traffic was resumed this morning, but this afternoon a car was stopped loaded with passengers, and later the Sheriff "of Hancock County, with armed deputies, was ordered to the scene to enforce quar antine.

The aver age weight of hogs Is likewise recover ing, but" the numerical supply Is still nearly 1,000,000 short of the receipts for the first half of 190L A rough gauge of the increase in the consuming demand for meats is found in the trunk-line shipments of provisions from Chicago and Chicago points.

Vrouule In Slinrcn of Electrical Com. panieai Dne to Boom. BERLIN, Aug. 3. With the exception of the shares of a few domestic railroads, the Bourse was pronouncedly weak along tho whole lino last week. Railroads were strong upon good crop prospects, and rumors of the forthcoming nationalization of the roads, but even government securi ties, which have been active for the past few weeks, were quite lifeless. All Indus trial securities were sluggish, and de clines were universal. The department stood under the Influence of the report of the Schukerf Electrical Company, of Nuremburg; it was also Influenced by tho reduction of the dividend of the Bochum Cast Steel. Company to 7 per cent, as against 13i-3 per cent last year, and the receipt of further reports of the coal trade, which' represented conditions to be unsatisfactory. Iron and coal snares declined during the week, but not to the extent of the week previous, and last Friday and Sat urday brought a partial recovers In prices. Shares of other electrical companies fell in sympathy with those of the Schukert Company, the latter losing 9 points. The Frankfurter Zeitung, commenting upon the report of the Schukert Company, says it shows the evil effects of tho sys tem, which prevailed with electrical manu facturing companies during the boom of unduly pushing tho organization of trac tion and lighting plants in. order to make for themselves and also of taking shares In such plants. Dull Stocks in London. LONDON, Aug. 3. The August holi days, an apathetic public, and the in creased demand for money, all tended to make lost week on the stock exchange a dull one. Once more South Africans at tracted more attention than usual, and with American shares formed the bright est features of a listless and falling market- The shipments of gold from New York and the release of several million pounds In dividends, are now tending to make money easier, which Is hailed as favorable to the long-awaited rally. Con tinental holders are still continuing to realize higher all along the line, and the process of weeding out weak accounts scarcely seems to be concluded. It is an open secret that the last settlement would have witnessed more failures, but the fact that the operators secured Inside as lstance. . PHYSICAL DEGENERACY. Why Men nnd Women Are Smaller Noiv Than They "Were Formerly. New Orleans Times-Democrat "I have been working out a theory which accounts for the fact that men and women are smaller now than they used to be," said an observant citizen, "and, while my reasoning may not be good in all respects. It Is interesting enough in a way, and brings up some rather important prob lems. It is a conceded fact that men and women are smaller now than they used to be. The fact Is painfully appar ent Tho tailors can. testify to It They have noticed the changes which have taken glaco in human measurements. That humanity has come upon an era of dwarfing is amply shown by the yard stick and the tape In the tailor shop. Of course, methods of living have much to do with these dwarfing tendencies. Life is a faster game now than it was in ye olden times. There Is more rushing. moro crowdng and Jamming, more bustle in all respects. "But coming to the point I had In mind. I believe we can safely say that the .phys ical decline of men and women of this day Is due to a great extent to adutera- tlor. of food. Men and women of yester day did not know what It was to have their stomach crowded with the cheap and injurious substances which we find ic foods tails these days. They fed on purer food. They were closer to tho great big warm heart of nature. Children were nursed dlfferentiy. The baby did not know so much about the bottle. He got tho food nature Intended he should get The result was that ho got a good start In life, and when he had reached maturity he was a lusty, well-rounded fellow. Now it is different Babies begin to take on adulterated food almost no aoon as they arrive. They keep It up. They drift away from the .natural. Artificialities press upon them at every point The un- naturalness of their way of living has had a bad effect upon tho system. We see It In what is called 'physical degener acy. I havo been thinking over this matter for some time, and I think my theory Is well grounded. '-The bottle habit is a bad thing. The principle Is wrong. We want to get closer to nature. and we will have to do It If we expect to grow healthier and more robust men an women." Reply of the Packers. CHICAGO, Aug. 3.

Some may be Interested to Jcnow that there Is now almost a new kind of phllo sophy of fatigue. Some speculators think man became conscious because his intuitions were slowed up by ex haustlon, ao that the mind has to pick its way slowly and logically. Instead of divining Instantly as It used to do. It was the fall of man. Wilder dreamers have even described the origin of cosmic gas and nebulae, from which all the worlds come, as due to pro gressive fatigue of the ether, which is far moro subtle and back' of it It is a little as If they were attempting to rewrite "Ins first phrases of the Old Testament so that it should read, "In. tho beginning was fatigue." entered Into this movement compared with 572,815 tons last year.

It Is too early to pick a winner, but horsemen might keep an eye upon Alta Cora, who recently worked out In 2:16&, and that without the use of the whip. One noticeable feature of the State Fair programme Is that nearly all the harness races are two In three events. Formerly most of them were three in five, but Sec retary Wisdom says and every lover of racing will agree with him that long drawn out races weary the spectators, while sharp heats with new heads In the field In each race will have an enlivening effect and there will be no drowsiness In the grandstand. The harness races will be so arranged that when a heat Is fin ished the entries for the next event will be called from the paddock, and no time will be lost In the scoring. Another change In the rules Is that a horse which has not won a heat In three will be sent to the barn, so that In a case of divided honors the struggle will be shortened. The races will be over by 5 o'clock each afternoon, and there will be no post poned heats except those caused by un foreseen circumstances In the races of Friday. Mack Mack and Phil N. made a showing that was entirely unexpected of them for the reason that neither one had been tried very hard In the work-outs and neither needed urging except on the last quarter, when it came down to a finish between Helman and Slmpsqn for the honors.
