WASHINGTON, July 20. Secretary
A1k i- yesterday tendon 1 to the prts
il iit Kin icaiguatJon of the war port
folio Tim resignation will become ef
fective AiiKHHt 1, though it wua tend-
K-il "at thu pleasure of the presi
dent." iortsij) h.-iK beKun an to liia successor,
hut It la entirely speculative, for not
withstanding the reports that Mr.
A I.". . would not long continue at the
li'.-;Pd of the War department, his ac
tual resignation came suddenly and
unexpe.tedly. That it would come by
tiie cuil of the year was generally be
lieved, but so little was it ex pec-tea
at tills time that some of the cabinet
olllcers, when the news first became
public, were inclined to regard the an
nouncement as premature, the an
nouncement that it was actually In
bund coming to them In the nature of
a surprise.
Formal acceptance of his resigna
tion hud not been made by the pres
ident up to a late hour tonight, but
will be in a letter to be written within
tlie next day or two. '
No ollicial statement as to the cause
of the resignation was 'procurable
either from the president or from Sec
retary Alger, neither of whom would
talk on the subject, nor was the letter
of resignation obtainable at this time.
For the present nothing will be made
Mihlic concerning the severance of the
relations of the president and his war
minister, but later on the ollicial cor
respondence, closing the hitter's ca
reer as chief of the War department,
doubtles will be given to the press.
The belief had prevailed in Washing
ton for some time that Secretary Alger
' would resign from the cabinet, but the
date generally set for it was toward
the end of the year, after he had sub
mitted his annual report. In which he
bad intended to sum up what had been
accomplished during his brief eventful
direction of the War department.
Its tender then had been regarded
jis alniosi a foregone conclusion, in
view of Mr. Alger's announcement
about, a month ago, that he had con
cluded to enter into competition for
the vacancy in the 1'nited States sen
ate, to be caused by the expiration
of the term of Senator M-Millin, a
strong supporter of the administra
tion, and that he had enlisted in his
active support Governor l'ingree, to
whom h,-'d been attributed free criti
cisms of the poI;-y that was supposed
to be cherished ny the president to
ward the Filipinos.
- There have been many explanations
and denials of the facts in that case,
but in the end the impression was con
veyed that the result of the Mulligan
visit of the secretary had been to
change the relations between the pres
ident and himself to such a d gree as
to make the restoration of their form
er status impossible and to render the
connection of the two as part of the
same official family impossible.
At no time since then has there
been ground for the belief that a rup
ture might be avoided, but this belief
ceased to be held wten the oews
spread that Vice President Ilobart and
Secretary Algrr were in conference at
Normanhurst.
It was largely at least as a result
of this conference that Secretary Alger
decided to leave the cabinet at this
time. At this conference there were
present, besides Secietary Alger, his
military aide and close personal and
political friend and adviser. Major
JlopKins, and perhaps some other per
sons, or person, who also felt a deep
interest in the future of the secretary.
There has been no disclosure of
what passed by the seaside, but it is
significant that the return of the sec
retary to Washington was followed by
prompt action, lie arrived in Wash
ington last night, too late to make any
official calls. Almost before the ex
ecutive departments were opened xor
business this morning he called at the
White House and, visiting the presi
dent in his office, announced that he
had concluded to resign his office.
What passed on that point between
himself and the president is only a
matter of surmise, for neither have
anything to say on the point. Some rou
tine business pertaining to the War de
partment was disposed of, and then
Mr. Alger went over to his office and
spent some time with Major Wilson,
chief of engineers, and Major Hopkins,
looking into the merits of the contro
versy which had arisen over the con
struction of a drawbridge over a nav
igable "stream in Michigan. Major
Hopkins had Just returned from a per
sonal inspection of the locality and
had prepared a report on the subject.
Several times they were interrupted
by Adjutant General Corbin, who had
some matters of pressing current bus
iness requiring the personal action of
the secretary to bring to his attention.
This attended to. Secretary Alger then
wrote out his formal letter of resig
nation and personally carried it over
to the White House. His call on this
occasion was brief, and when he re
turned to the War department he
closed the door of his office to most of
the "t.pv callers vN were in '--itlrir
and had a long conference with Ad
jutant General Corbin.

EVENING IP RATES ON GRAIN.
Commerce OoiiiiiiImmIoii Makm Dfclilon
A fTri'tliifc Klilpprr.
WASHINGTON, I). C. July U. Tho
Interstate commerce commission in an
opinion by Commissioner I'routy to
day announced Its decision In the ca?e
of the Grain Shippers' association of
northwest Iowa against the Illinois
Central Railroad company ami others.
The commission finds that the trans
portation, of ffraln eastward from Kan
sas City and from 810uk City and other
points In the territory adjacent to
Sioux City Is subject to competition
between the carriers, but while re
duced rates have resulted from tho
competition at Kansas 'ity, the com
petition in northwest Iowa has been
more effectlvel' restrained by an
agreement formerly In effect ad since
such agreement was cameled by con
tinuance of rates with substantial re
duction.
The rate on corn to Chicago from
most points in western cities Is 17
cents per 10') pounds. An examination
of th rates and rate conditions for a
period of years Indicates to the satis
faction of the commission thut a late
of 15 cents on corn from Kansin City
to Chicago should be applied at all
Missouri river points, but it concludes
that the evidence Is not sufficient to
enable a definite conclusion. It does
not appear, they say, however, that
the rates on erain from Sioux City and
other points In a limited section of
northwest Iowa are too high.
The commission decides that the 19-
cent rate on corn from Sioux City and
other Doints In adjacent territory
should be reduced, that tho 17-cent
rate on corn now in effect from most
noints In western Iowa should be ex-
onHrwl to SloilX CitV and points ill
Town, east of the Sioux City & St. Paul.
now part of the Chicago. St. Paul fc
Omaha, and that a corresponding re
duction should be made from other
noints in southwestern Iowa. The com
mission further held that no opinion
is expressed as to what is the proper
relation of rates on wheat and corn
from Sioux City and adjacent terri
tory, the difference of 4 cents which
now prevails from most shipping
point in that section should not be
exceeded.
The complaints also demanded repa
ration, but this was denied upon uie
ground that there is no proof that the
rates were unreasonable at the time
thev were presented.
Incidentally, the commission in pass
ing upon the case decided that the
capitalization of a railioad to prove
consideration in a ense involving the
readjustment of rates, should be ac
companied by a history of the capital
account, the value of the stocy and
various securities and th actual cost
and value of the property itself. They
bold that to make the capital account
of railroads the measure of legitimate
earnings would place, as a result, the
corporation which has been honestly
managed from the outset under enor
mous disadvantages.
NEBRASKA IS ALL RIGHT.
Tin- Outlook for ConiliiR Crops Illglily
l :iicur trin sr.
MINNEAPOLIS, July 19 Frank H.
Peavey, who left Minneapolis a week
ago by special train, on an inspection
trip through Nebraska and Kansas,
intended to cover an examination of
tiie crops and his elevator properties
in those states and in Kansas City,
returned today. He said: "Our trip
covered the Fnion Pacific line in Ne
braska and Kansas. We went west to
North Platte. Neb., and from Manhat
tan and Salina in Kansas to Kansas
City. I found wheat better than I ex
pect to in Nebraska, and In Kansas
about T0 per cent of last year's yield
on the Union Pacific system, which
makes a better showing than on lines
further south, however. With no ac
cident to corn Kansas will break all
her records as a coin-producing state.
"In Nebraska the corn looks better
than in Kansas, if that is possible.
The farmers are improving their lands
and buildings substantially and also
their dwellings."
Mr. Peavey said that the prospect
was so encouraging that he should
build a new line of elevators in Ne
braska, and would probably add to his
system in Kansas.
As to northwest prospects, Mr. Pea
vey said: "Our private reports suggest
a splendid wheat harvest for the
northwest. It looks to me as if good
fortune is again to shine upon us."
lluaineas in Venezuela Depressed.
WASHINGTON. July 19. Frank B.
Loomis, the American minister to Ven
ezuela, was at the state department
today, having recently arrived in the
United States from his post. Mr. Loo
mis says that business in Venezuela
la considerably depressed owing to the
low prices of coffee. The people of
the country, he says, are very hopeful
that the result of the boundary line
arbitration will confirm Venezuela's
right to the territory, which proves to
be fabulously rich in gold, silver, cop
per and other minerals. Mr. Loomis
says that the project for a huge canal
system to connect the waters of the
Orinoco, Amazon and Platte is being
discussed, but that the vast sum ne
cessary to construct it, estimated at
from $100,000,000 to $300,000,000. stag
gers the projectors.
Voting- Raptlsts Call on McKlnley.
WASHINGTON, July 19 About 300
delegates to the Baptist Young Peo
ple's union which has just finished Ita
annual meeting at Richmond. Va..
were received by the president in the
east parlor today. They were present
ed by President John Chapman of Chi
cago.
(ieorge Victor Lindon, who is sup
posed to be better posted on "dog-
ology" than tiny other man in town,
furnished amusement for a large num
ber of by-standers at Fourth and Main
streets last eveninc. Ho had been
down to tho river giving Henry
Miller's St. Bernard pup a bath and
was on the return when the animal
playfully jumped about his feet and
erot tho chain with which Lindon was
leading it tangled about hia legs,
throwing him to tho pavement and
then proceeded to have fun with
him. Tho duit was flying about tho
two objects so thick that it was
impossible to determine which was
tho under dog for a while, and some
who witnessed the performance
tV.ought it was an Italian and bear
doing tho dance. Although the pup
is but a few months old it was able to
hold Mr. Lindon down for quite a
while. It is safe to say that in the
futuro ho will not take such good care
of the dog that will foel hilarious to
tho oxtent that it will want to wrestle
with him.

Got Into a Nest of AVaBps.
A good little joko is told today on
Halsey Duke, who lives up in the Sec
ond ward. Halsev and his little sister
were playing hide-and-go-seek out in
tho yard last evening, and when it
camo his turn to hide ho requested his
sister to close her eyes and when ho
had concealed himself in a comfortable
place he would signal her by letting
forth a loud yell. IIo immediately
proceeded to climb up one of the tall
trees in tho yard, and had no more
than seated himself on one of the
branches when he discovered, to his
dismay, that he had gotten into a nest
of wasps, and from the noiso Halsey
made for a few minutes it was evident
that tho insects lost no time in mak
ing it warm for him. The lad's cries
wero heard all over the neighborhood,
and when he was finally rescued from
his perilous position, it was found that
his face and hands were quite severely
stung by the angry wasps. It is safe
to say that Halsey will not hide in any
more trees for some time to come.

.... u ma w
tion of a humor in the blood of terrible
Eczema which is more than skin-deep, and can not be reached hy local appli
cations of ointments, talvet, etc., applied to the turface. The diieane itself '
tiie real cause of the trouble, it in the blood, although all Buffering It produced
through the skin ; the only way to reach the diteate, therefore, ia through
111U UlOOU.
Mr. l'hil T. Jona. of MSxeriTille, Ind., writet :
"1 hud Eczema thirty years, and after a great deal
of treatment my leg was to raw and tore that it gave me
eotii-tant pain. It finally broke into a running aore, and
bemm to spread and grow worse. For the paat Ave or
nix years 1 have Buffered untold agony and had giren up
nil hope of ever being free from the diaeate, aa I have
been treated by some of the best physicians and" have
taken many blood medicines, all in vain. With little
faith left I began to take B. 8. 8., and it apparently
made tho Eczema worte, but I knew that thit wat the
way (he remedy got rid of the poison. Continuing
8. S. S., the sore healed np entirely, the skin became
clear and smooth, and I wat cured perfectly."
Eczema is an obstinate disease and can not be eured by a remedy whloh it
only a tonic. Hwift't Bpeciflo
S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
is superior to other blood remedies because it eures diseases whieh they oan
not reach. It goes to the bottom to the eause of the disease and will enre
the worst case of Eczema, no matter what other treatment has failed. It it
the only blood remedy guaranteed to be free from potash, mercury or any
other mineral, and never fails to cure Ecsema, Berofula, Contagleua Blood
roison, Cancer, Tetter, Rheumatism, Open Hores, Ulcers, Boils, ett. Insist
upon 8. S. 8. ; nothing can take its place. -.
