A story which seems to be auth entic comes Irom Newberg to the effect that the Southern Pacific lines are to be joined in the near fu ture by a connecting track running from Newberg to St. Joseph. Sur veyors are now said to be at work between these two points ascertain ing the best and most feasible route over which to build a new track. Owing to the absence from the city Dom 01 uenerai Aianager Worthington and VV. E. Coman, general freight and passenger agent of the Southern Pacific, no confir mation of the story could be se curea, out it seems to come irom a reliable quarter and is interesting " bearing on the future develop- f a t. . .

The time for the cars to reach the city is now overdue, but advices tell that ' they are on the road though perhaps delayed by the bad weather conditions of the mountain divisions. The company management in telling of the new service stated that it would be put on between Portland and Hillsboro or perhaps, if successful, as far as Fotest Grove. The new plan to build a connect- inS track between Newberg and St Joseph brings to light an interest ing possibility and one which is creating a great deal of talk along the line of the two West Side tracks. St. Joseph is A 7 miles from Port land over the West Side division. wuile Newberg is 20 miles away over the vamhill division. It is perhaps ten miles between New berg and St. Joseph and the terri tory inclosed in this line of track will make, to all practical intents, a large triangle with a perimeter of approximately 80 miles, inclosing some of the richest land of the Wil lamete Valiey. The Southern Pacific's plan, so it is said, is to run two motcr trains over this loped line. Both L i. :n 1 r.i .

THEY HAVE GOOD MEMORIES Turning Down ef a Comrade by Sen. ater Fulton Net Relished by the Old Soldiers. At the largest attended meeting for many months of the General Ranson Post, G. A. R., in this city, last baturuay. the louowmg reso lutions were unanimously adopted : Whereas Comrade Rufus Wag gener was a member of Company B, Third Regiment, Iowa Volun teer Infantry, and gave more than three years of the best of his life to the service of his country in her hour of peril. Whereas, Upon the recommenda tion of the late Hon. Thomas H. Tongue, a resident of this place, and, a member of Congress from this district, Comrade Waggener was appointed postmaster of this city, and has faithfully discharged his duties as such, in so faithful a mauner that no complaint has ever been made with regard to the same by the patrons of said office; Whereas, More than 400 legal voters and patrons of said office, including more than 90 per cent of the business and professional men of this city, and including the mem bers of this post, signed a petition praying that he be reappointed to said position. Whereas, It has been the de clared policy of the President of the United States to reappoint a Post master for a second term, where his services have been satisfactory, and specially so where the incumbent was a soldier., j Whereas, Notwithstanding the 1 facts as above set forth, the Presi dent of the United Slates, at the so licitation ot Ilon.C. W.Fulton, Unit ed States Senator from Oregon, be ing, as we believe, deceived and kept in ignorance of the facts above sets forth by the said C. W. Fulton, has refused to reappoint Comrade Waggener, and has appointed a gentleman, in whose behalf no pe tition was circulated or signed in this community. Resolved, by General Ramsom Post, No 69, G. A. R., That, by the action of the said Hon. C. W. Fulton, the President of the United States has been prevailed upon to make an appointment in direct op position to the wishes of the people of this community, as expressed by their petition, in violation of the ' principle of home rule, so dear to every American, in direct opposi tion to the policy of the Adminis tration, as repeatedly declared by President Roosevelt, to reappoint a faithful officer, especially where the officer has done service in behalf of his country, and the absolute vio lation of the principle ot the civil service law, of which our President has been so distinguished an advo cate; Resolved, That we regard the ac tion of Hon. C. W. Fulton in this matter as an insult to every man who who wore the blue during the dark days of '61 to '65; that it shows the hollowness of his oft-repeated protestations of respect for the vet erans of this country, and we call upon the comrades of tht State of Oregon, and their friends, to resent this action upon his part when op portunity offers.

The supreme court today, in the case of the Harriman interests against the Northern Securities company, affirmed the decision of the circuit court allowing the dis tribution of shares in the possession 01 tne securities company, among the lines included in the company. This is the final defeat for the Har riman interests. The decision allows the desired pro rata of distribution asked for by Hill. The motion of J. Hamil ton Lewis to intervene on behalf of the Continental Security company was denied. The decision was a surprise, as it was not expected for several weeks. The case was brought by Harri man, Kockleller, Kukn, Loeb & Co. and others against J. J. Hill, J. Pierpont Morgan and others, and involved the control of the North ern Pacific, and a half interest in the Burlington. The decision ren dered today, insures to the Hill in terests the control of these lines. The litigation is the aftermath of the decision rendered by the ru- preme court last year declaring the Northern Securities company ille gal. Harriman demanded the re turn of the actual Northern Pacific shares that he put into the combi nation, which if he had secured them would have meant control of the road. Hill and Morgan, in dissolving the Se curities company, offered to pro rate so many shares of the North ern, which has the effect of putting Harriman in the minority of the Northern Pacific. The Northern Securities com pany was formed in the intersts of the Great Northern, and consisted of a merger of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern, holders of rail road stock surrendering it for stock in the Securities company, which also acquired a controlling interest in the Burlington. When, the merger was declared illegal a plan of pro-rata distribution was adopted, giving each stockholder shares in individual roads instead of the stock originally put into combine Vertical Writing Attacked. The six Chicago school princi pals appointed to investigate the cause of poor penmanship among the graduates of the city schools have recommended the abolition of the vertical style and the adoption of a slanting style, the slant not to exceed i2li degrees and one from 10 to 15 degrees is preferable. The slant of the old Spencerian system was 52 degrees. The claim is made that the vertical style oi writing is too slow, to easily duplicated, not practical tor business and dertroys individuality. The investigation of systems covered 78 cities and it was discovered that 43 of these use the modified slanting style.

Mukden, March 7 (4:35 P. M.j Fighting of the fiercest kind, which is likely to decide the fate of the battle which has been in progress for ten days, began at dawn today anel has continued uninterruptedly up to the present time on a front fourteen miles long, west of the railroad and on a line with the Shakhe river. The Japanese also have made a desperate attack on Pntsiaputze, and reports are arriv ing nere tnai ngnting was renewed this morning on the extreme left of the Russian army. Both lines are fighting with des peration to the westward, though the troops are well nigh exhausted. The issue of the battle may depend . largely on the relative physical con dition of the rank and file. In its main features the combat is very much like that at Liao Yang, and if the Russians should be able to crush the flanking force victory may be regarded as won. The losses in the ten days of bat tle on both sides are already far greater than were the casualties in the battle ot Liao Yang, and are likely to increase as the days pass before the issue is fully decided. Beginning at 2 o'clock a. m., the Japanese made a succession of des perate attacks on General Tserpitz ky's division, on the west front, south of Mukden, repeating the assault at intervals of two hours with constant reinforcements. About 50,000 Japanese, with 200 pieces of artillery, participated. All the attacks were repulsed, there be ing enormous losses on both sides. London, March 8. The Daily Mail's correspondent says: Reports are current here that the Russians are in retreat and prepar ing to destroy the railroad north of Mukden. General Karopatkin is said to have gone to Fushun after holding a council of war of 100 offi cers. His left rearguard, consisting of 20,000 picked troops, is retiring. Chinese report that Mukden has been completely evacuated and that its great magazines were set on fire by Japanese artillery. The strike at the fair grounds in Portland is said to be dead, and work is going on nearly as usual.

The old Reliable Corner Why Not Chloroform tht Old Meu? Fraternal insurance rates will be discussed in the Industry hall this evening, in the connection with the proposed adoption ot a plan by the Oregon jurisdiction of the Ancient Order of United Workmen. The plan recommended by the supreme lodge will be presented by Ralph Feeney, a past grand master of the Oregon gioud ludge. Tuc nega tive was to have been discussed by J. E. Werlein, but as he is ill it is expected he will send a substitute. The object of the discussion is to educate members of the A. O. U. W. along the line of higher rates and safer insurance. The supreme lodge has presented a long-consid ered proposition to the state juris dictions, by which members are given a choice of two or three plans of continuing their old insurance policies or applying for new ones. The supreme lodge plan has been adopted by twenty-four state juris dictions, including California, Penn sylvania, New York, Texas, Colo rado, Connecticut, North Dakota, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and Ohio. Op position in Oregon has come from the older members, upon whom a heavy advance in rates would be made. The member who at 70 years ot age is paying an assess ment 03.56 on a $2,000 policy would have to pay $8.40 to place his insurance on a sound basis. The new plan proposes two ways by which he may secure material advantages without paying the full increase named. These features of the plan will be discussed at this evening's meeting. 1 ne level rate under tne new plan is based on $1.24 per $r,ooo for the age of 2 1 years. Members preferring the step-rate plan pay less in youth, and a gradually in creasing assessment as they grow older. . There has been a change of sen timent in the Oregon grand lodge since the meeting last summer in Portland, when the supreme lodge's plan was voted down. It is now thought that the necessary two thirds of the grand lodge represen tatives will vote for the new plan, and its advocates confidently be lieve the change will be made at the coming special that has just been called by Grand Master E. Berchtold to meet in Portland. April 13th. Portland Journal of Monday. S. W. Potter has lately placed a clock in his jewelry store which puts the old eight day timepieces out of business. It will run two and a half years without touching it, the power which swings the eight pound pendelum being fur nished by a small storage battery.
