she planned the murder OF her lord, whom she
had grown to hate; inspired Macbeth with her
idea by appealing to his ambition and passion.
and SO urged him to the bloody deed, in which
she assisted. Such plot, however, would

REDUCTION OF RAILROAD CHARGES
The Sacramento Reporter states, rs it by
authority, that it is the intention Of the
Central Pacific Railroad Company, ut
an early day, to reduce freighls anu
fares ON their road to the lowest posi-
BILE figures consistent with the credit OF
the Company and the prompt sales OF
their bonds and tho bonds of the Gen.
eral Government. 1t is the intention OF
the Company, Us it is also Of the pubic,
adds the Reporter, to so cheaper fares
and freights as to command the entire
travel to the State Of Nevada and the
Territories Of Utah, Idaho and Montana.
Tho competition between the Union and
Central Pacific Companies is already
operating to tho public advantage.
Both Companies aim to secure the Gus
tom Of the Territories named, and will
find it polite to reduce charges as their
respective roads advance, to the lowest
price that will leave q margin for profit.
If they should ever be consolidated or
should agree on a common schedule OF
prices, there will remain to prevent I'M
duo charges, the supreme authority OF
Congress, to BIO exercised by a Commits
sion already indicated by House resolu-
ton. There is thus no reason to appre-
bend that oppressive rates will rule after
the continental road is completed.
