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

ties on sugar, M. Routkowsky, financial
agent of the Russian Government In the
United States, has been instructed to

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

Taking the Chicago market as typical,
the monthly average weight of cattle has

A rough gauge of the increase in the

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

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.

Some may be Interested to Jcnow that
there Is now almost a new kind of phllo

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

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

Phil N. made a showing that was entirely
unexpected of them for the reason that
neither one had been tried very hard In
