CHICAGO, April C Western general

wrestlod with a matter that threatens to
cause demoralization ot Pan-American ex
position rates In western torrltory. The
row la over n differential rate that tho
Wabash Is maintaining from Kansas City
to Buffalo and New York.
The Wabash la conceded to be the short
lino between thoso points and makes quicker
tlmo by several hours than any of tho other
lines: The other lines feel that the Wabash,
with- tho advantages It possesses, should
not bo allowed to enjoy a lower rato than
they have during the exposition and securo
tho great bulk ot the business from Kansas
City and tho southwest.
A1J efforts made to Induce tho Wabash to
change Its position havo failed and as tho

means to light. The WabaBh's competitors
arc now determined to meet whatovcr rates

Tired Feeling
There is an "honeut tired feel
ing," caused by necessary toil and
oured by natural rest.
But very different is " that tired
feeling," from which bo many com
plain and which may evon be
classed as a disease.
That tired feeling takes you to
bed tired and wakes you up tired.
You have no appetite, have bil
ious taste, dull headache, are ner
vous and irritable, blue, weak and
discouraged.
In such conditions Hood's Sarsa

you feel liko a new person.
This has been the experience of

BUFFALO, N. Y., April C At a meeting
of tho Incorporators of the Pan-American
exposition today President J. C. Mlllbum
submitted a statement to the effect that tho
funds ot tho exposition would meet nil ob
ligations covering tho completion of tho ex
position, with tho exception ot about $500,
000. After tho recent failuro of congress to
grant n loan of $500,000 to the exposition
Dlrectqr General William I. Buchanan
stated to the Associated Press that this ac
tion would In no way effect the carrying out
of tho exposition in the fullest details au
planned. This assertion was Justified by
tho result of tho meeting of the Incorpor
ators today, when within an hour over $200,-
000 was subscribed.
President Mlllbum expects that tho re
maining nmount necessary will bo raised
tho coming week, especially In view of the
fact that the citizens of Buffalo aro de
sirous of making a unique record In tho
history ot international expositions, the
Pah-American Exposition company having
received no financial aid from either the
national government or the stato of New
York.

Is being held at higher figures than at this
tlmo last year and thcro seems to be n
tendency upon tho part ot tho moneyed
men of the town to acquire ats much prop

Recent developments hero show that ii
lit probablo the Burlington railroad will
cioss tho Shoshone river In the vicinity of
Eaglo 8 Nest, and, passing through Meo

ol the Yellowstono park, Instead of follow
Ing up tho Shoshone to Cody City. It 13
atBtrtcd that while tho Taluca-Cody lino
was surveyed via Cody, tho grade stakes
were nover set to Cody and' wero driven no
farther west than Eagle's Nest. From
thero the line has been surveyed almost
south to a point near Durllngton, on tho
Gray Bull river, and from that place up
tho river through Mectootse. No grading
on the line has been done thlB side of

As an indication that tho Burlington will

PARIS, April 6. (New York World Cable
gram Special Telegram.) Threo American
artists who traveled through northern
Spain and part ot France on horseback,
dressed like tho musketeers in Dumas'
novel, after camping for threo weeka In the
suburbs of Paris, havo started out again.
This tlmo they aro going through eastern
Europo till Bulgaria Is reached. Their
names are Carter, Walnwrlght nnd Rey
nolds. All three men possess artistic tal
ent, and havo studied hero threo years.
Walnwrlght has had several paintings ad
mitted to the salon.
Two years ago tho trio went south, and
later went touring about on horseback.
Still later the love of fun Impelled the
three to dress llko musketeers. Despite the
multitudinous annoyances brought by tho
strange costumes among tho disconcerted
nnd ofton hostile peasant populations, the
riders visited many lands. During their
recent stay here the llttlo band was given
many parties at the American studios and
recited curious adventures. Walnwrlght
claims to havo married the daughter ot a
Spanish smuggler who, after traveling with
tho party a few weeks, left her American
husband and returned to her people.

Cablegram Special Telegram.) Aa already
cabled to tho World, Idy Cook, who wus
Tennessee Clalllti, han approached Homo
Sccietary Rltchlo for an order to exhume
tho body of her husband, Millionaire Sir
Francis Cook, who died two months ago.
The World correspondent saw Lady Cook
tcday at her London residence and ques
tioned her as to tho ground for this de-
jnnnri. Lady Cook, who spoke with strong
emotion, said:
'Yes, 1 havo applied for an exhumation
order. No reply will bo given until next
week, when nn application will formally
bo made by my lawyer. I am determined
to bear no longer the aspersions cast upon
me by certain persona concerning my poor
hunband's death. Theso people, embittered
at not having been provided for under his
will, havo been making demands upon mr.
One of them, a girl, was, I think, entitled
to something from my husband. I com
piled up to u point with tho financial do.
raamls sho nnd others made, but these de
mands Increased, and I refused to concede
anything more. Now they are circulating
Infamous stories and threatening me with
revelations ubnut how he cauio by his death.
It is blackmail and nothing else.
In .othltiK tn t'V'ar.
"I have nothing to fear from any Inquiry.
My husband was nttended by doctors
throughout his Illness and they duly certi
fied the causo of his death, which was
senllo decay. Theso persons threaten to
contest his will. This Is purt of their
schema of extortion. 1 shall iiiBlst on an
autopsy to silence these llbelorr.
"I went to tho Home office yesterday to
apply for an exhumation order and was
asked to make a written application. I
havo done so. There Is nothing to conceal.
Two of these persons havo been taken 111
slnco I told them I should expose them. My
husband's family arc all p.way from London,
so they know nothing of my application,
but they do know how these persons acted
and their sympathies aro with me In this
trial."
Lady Cook, who was much affected by
her trouble, assoveratcd again and again
that sho would havo a public autopsy on her
husband's body. Legal opinion given to
tho World 13 that an exhumation order
would not be granted on the vague plea
set up, but In that event Lady Cook Is de
termined to take other measures for her
vindication. Sho would not say what was
tho nature of tho claim her foes advanced.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 6. (Now York
World Cablegram Special Telegram.) A
reported attempt ou tho czar's life at
Tsarsko proves unfounded. Tho czar and
czarina are living in complete, seclusion
tbore. The czarina's health Is very delicate.
Her accouchement Is expected this mouth.
Though disturbances throughout the chief
cities of tho empire, provoked by Pobo-
doostzeff's bigoted reprerslon, caused much
loss of Ufo nnd sent a large draft of polit
ical suspects to Siberia, tho talk of a rev
olution la absurd. A revolution can only
como hero by the chiefs of tho government
and ot tho nrmy combining to deposo the
czar, an event about as likely as a con
spiracy In tho college ot cardinals to over
throw the popo. This country is so vast, thu
Inertia of tho peasant class so profound nnd
their Ignorance so hopeless that it will tako
a century before a revolution can spring
from tho people.
Iteprelon of Student.
Measures of drastic repression havo been
Initiated against tho students In tho uni
versities throughout tho empire. Four
hundred students here have been ordered to
report themselves morning and evening to
tho police. All who fall to do so are
arrested and thrown Into prison for an In
definite period. Several have been arrested
already.
At Odessa, In a raid made on a printing
press worked by girl studouts, fourteen
wero arrested and 170 others placed under
strlot police surveillance.
In Kleft three students were mysteriously
killed by poison, it Is believed by tbelr
follow students, on suspicion of being police
spies. The universities would be closed,
but the authorities fear the dispersal as'
spreading tho center of disaffection. They
prefer to keop tho students under ob
servation In big bodies.
Great constornatlon has been caused at
Moscow because ninety students absconded
without leavo on a mission to preach so
cialism among tho peasants In tho villages.
In Charkoff two students were killed and
twenty-four wounded in the recent dis
turbances. WOMAN ALL IN ONE COLOR

BERLIN, April C (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) A women's
artistic dress reform movement. Is Interest
ing Berlin society hugely. Henry Vender
bolde, a distinguished artist, lectured to
an aristocratic audlouco ThUrsduy. Ho
urged women to wear costumes all of ono
color for evening dress, liko tho men, con
tending that a uniform mass uf one color
makes u better effect than variegated hues.
Ho also recommended the adoption ot a
national costume, but his audience proved
hostile to such a retrogressive Idea.
Every woman, lui declared, should bo
taught to draw designs for her own clothes
as tho best way of teaching appreciation
of tho beautiful. When a dress pleased
her sho would wear It for years, Several
officers and other male swolls present
laughed aloud at this, so men will bo ex
cluded from future lectures.
Morulllr .Never Ho Lov.
In Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne and Alx-la-Chapello
trials am progressing of a scanda
lous character which throw a harsh light
on tho morality of tho well-to-do classes
In these places. It Is the universal testi
mony of statisticians, paBtora and pbysl
claus that morality In Germany, in tho
country as well as In thu largo cities, has
nover beon at so low an ebb.
Amerlenn Slntfer Itldlculed,
Mrs. Powell Webster, an American singer
from Dresden, engaged for the opera house
hore, does not pleaso the critics. Her
voice, they say, Ih fine, sho Is mistress of
nil arts which enhance tone and color, but
eho lacks power. Her German Is rldlcubd
and her acting Is declared beneath notice.
On tho whole, Mm. Powell Webster but
bad a bad time with the critics.

SYRACUSE, N. Y., April C While a ear
on tho old East sldo surburbas lino of tho
Syracuse Rapid Transit company was
crossing the James street bridge over tho
Oswego canal In the heart of the city this
afternoon, tho bridge suddenly gave way,
dropping thu car and Its Hlxty. passengers
to tho canal bed thirty feet below. Several
persons who were crossing the bridge ut
the time went down with tho car, while a
horse nnd loaded lumber wagon piled on
top of tho heap.
About thirty perrons were Injured. It is
not believed that any deaths will result,
although there uro reports of several ot
the worst Injured being dangerously
hurt.
Had tho canal been filled with water tho
result of thn accident would have been ter
rible. The water would have been deep
enough to cover all but a few windows and
tho front door. Tho car struck tho towpath
end flrat and then slid off Into tho mud nt
the canal bottom, where It stuck.
When the crash came, persons ou tho
street rnlleil, tho flro department. Lad
ders wero quickly lowered and the In
jured carried up and sent to their homes
or to hospitals.
For more than a year there have been
criticisms of the condition of the bridge.
Tho bridge was about Ml feet long and f.OO
feet wide. It was broken sharp off at both
embankments, the entire structure going
Into tho canal.
