The Chicago Ereniug Post, referring to

The Post says it may be true, as the

experience proves that, 80 far, at least, as
the disbursement Of money Is concerned,
it is very good thing for our ba1nacles te

We presume Mr. Richardson's statement

by tho officers Of the company, though We
recently published tho freight bills on a con-
1iepment Of hides from Utah to Chicago,
showing that the consignee was in that esso

Of &c CENTS, The rate ecalled for By The above

The above schedule rates are, however,
prohibitory Of through traffic. Some time

nearly prohibito.y Of the transportation Of
