Freight rates on the chi f commodi ties shipped from the East will be ma terially advanced Juuuary 18, by a general agreement among all trans-! continental lines. The new rates will affect the Pacific Coast, from Van couver, B. C., to San Diego, Calif. The increased rates will be made on ship ments from New York and common points, from Ciiicago and common points, from Omaha and Missouri river points and from the St. Louis territory, In short, all shipments from tbe Missouri river east to the Atlantic will cost about 10 cents more for eaeli 100 pounds brought, to tiie Pacific coast. The result will be that farm machinery, canned goods, glass and other staple articles will be raised in price to absorb the loss from an increased freight rate. The railroads assign n<> especial rea son for the increase. As one freight man expressed it, “the New York fel lows needed the money and thought the West had it." Rates to the east remain unchanged. The roads that wiilcompJy with the new rate agreement are the Northern Pacific, tbe Great Northern, Uni< n Pacific, Southern Pacific, O. R. & N. aud Santa Fe. These control tiie transcontinental business entirely.

A Mysterious Case. r r«rr -- Soreness and Stiffness St. Jacobs Oil I • éFíL'í St. Petersburg, Jan. 18.—The czar’s assurance given at the winter palace January 14, on the occasion of the New Year’s reception, that he desires and intends to do all In his power to maintain peace in the far east, is re- garded by the foreign diplomats as a hostage given to the world for the preservation of peace, while the guar- an tee that Russia will recognize the open ports and other concessions in Manchuria will. It Is thought, place i the onus of a rupture on Japan. Most of the newspapers here join In the peaceful chorus, one paper remark ing that it was strange for Russians to i first hear of the czar's words by way of America. London, Jan. 18.—The Russian cor respondent of the Times heard that a special council presided over by the! czar has arrived at the conclusion that war should be uvolded. The In ference, they say, is that the speech: of Premier Balfour at Manclft-ster on January 11th, in which he said “no one can contemplate hostilities be tween two great civilized countries without feelings of misgivings and of depression, declaring that “Great Britain would carry out to the fullest extent all her treaty obligations," greatly Influences this decision, It Is reported that, as a result of this conclusion, Russia intends to open ports in Manchuria, withdraw her pre tensions with regard to Corea, and possibly not even retain Port Arthur as a military stronghold. The correspondent of the Times a» Moscow comments on tho severity ot the censorship of all dispatches, ferring to movements of troops fleets. London, Jan. 18.—In what it claim» to be an authoritative statement, the Daily Graphic announces that the ne gotlations have arrived at a stage leaving two points upon which neithei Russia nor Japan is inclined to yield and as to which no means of a com promise have yet been found. Both these points concern Manchuria, and their acceptance would not in the slightest modify the legal status quo, nor change the administrative situa tion in Manchuria, but Japan insists “that they be embodied in a treaty between Japan and Russia,” while Russia, as a matter of amour propre. refuses to accept such dictation at the hands of Japan. Much, however, is still hoped from the czar’s Influence. London, Jan. 18.—A dispatch to the Daily Mail from Seoul declares that Allen, the American minister, is anx ious about the conduct of the Amerl can troops at Seoul, and has warn«xJ their officers that Corea is not the Philippines. The correspondent de Clares that heavy supplies of ammuni tion have been sent to the legations, which are also worried by the conduct of the American troops. According to the correspondent, there is distinct danger owing to the lack of discipline and the intoxication of the men. who are apparently spoiling for a fight. ROBBED THE DYING AND DEAD.

OoaalmK the Feet. rtiyslcal culturfsts say tbut the prac tice of sitting with the legs or even the feet crossed is a bad one and has more to do with cold feet than most persons imagine. It lias this result principally through impeding the circulation of the blood in the leg that is crossed over the other. Tbe femoral veins are cramped, with the consequence that th« bk>od is dammed beck Into the feet and above the knee. Inducing as well as cold feet a varicose condition tn the veins of the calves.
