A Railroad Warfare.

The Pennsylvania railroad and Balti-
more & Ohio have inaugurated fight which
has resulted in material reduction Of the
fare on those lines for long distances. The
Baltimore and Ohio charges that the Penn
sylvania railroad has deprived the former
of the necessary facilities in the through
arrangements between New York and
Washington, and that as retaliatory
measure reduction Of rates to all points
west has been made. The Pennsylvania
promptly followed suit over its western
route via Harrisburg. The Pennsylvania
road has issued poster stating that the
rates of fare by their route would be as
low at all times as that offered by another
line. The authorities say they expected
this action on the part of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad and were prepared to
meet it, and had issued orders to their
agents to that effect They say that the
latter road has no right to complain of the
action of the Pennsylvania road, as for
fifteen years they were compelled to trans-
fer their passengers to Washington through
the city and were compelled to purchase
tickets, that this action of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad was not for any spirit to
oblige the travelling public, but in spirit of
retaliation for something alleged to have
been done by their road. The Pennsylva-
mia railroad is selling tickets between Phil
adelphia and Pittsburg at eight dollars, and
between Washington and Pittsburg six
dollars, great reduction.

who pushed through the last Congress the
Infamous double-pay and back-pay bill,
who was foremost in seizing his share of
that plumber, and one of the very few of
the many who were greedy to grab it who
had the effrontery to stand up before q
crowd and complacently slap the pocket
swelled with the spoil and cry out, "There
it is; what are you going to do about it ?"
Considering these notorious facts, it would
seem that, in this opposition to pcrtioning
out among six hundred and thirty stricken
soldiers a sum but little larger than the
retrospective stealings of two Representa-
tives under his favorite bill, is not made
from any desire to save the nations mon
ey, but as spite against the soldiers.

a Remarkable rcen,mist.

The Pension Committee of the House of
Representatives has decided to increase
the monthly stipend of sold iers rendered
perfectly helpless by wounds and exposure
during the late war, and who require the
constant care Of others, from thirty-one to
fifty dollars. There are but six hundred
and thirty of these hapless veterans in the
country, so that this addition to their pen
sions involves an increased annual expense
to the Treasury of not quite twelve thou
sand dollars. One would have fancied
that measure so benign and humane az
this, addressed to the relief of bedridden
cripples to whom call is lost except a
little life" and who were cut down to
this low state in the service Of their coun-
try which pledged itself to care for them,
would hardly have found, in Congress or
elsewhere, solitary voice to oppose it,
But such voice was lifted up, and it came
out Of the throat Of Gen Benjamin f.
Butler, who urged in committee with great
yehemence that these lame, halt, manned,
and blind survivors of many bloody battles
should be herded into squads, and shipped
to the military asylums The object of the
increase Of their paltry pensions was to en-
able them to live among their friends and
families and in the places of their youth,
and to die by their own flreside.
Gen. Butler rests his opposition to the
proposed increase on the ground of econ
omy. lie thinks that the Government Ii
spending too much money that saving
must begin somewhere, and that the right
place to begin is with the most helpless OF
it's pensioners--the poorest of all its poor

Double Murder.

At New York on last Thursday morning
cries of murder were heard from the window
of flve-story building tenement house No.
204 Broome street. On the officers enter
ing the building they found the body of a
man lying in IL ipool of blood, with his
throat cut from ear to ear, and on entering
the room of the deceased found the dead
body of young woman with her throat
cut. The walls and stair-ways were lit
orally covered with blood, from the room
where the dead body of the woman was
found to the second landing, where the
body of the man was found. 1t was first
believed that the deceased (Michael Ryan
had cut his sisters throat and then his own
but the police on instituting a search, found
the vest of the murdered man ON the roof,
the buttonhole which held watch chain
was pulled out and the pocket Tifled, and
the box where deceased kept his bank book
was missing. On the stairs leading to the
roof as well as thereon, barefoot prints
were found, and it is the belief of the police
that robbery and murder have been COM
mitted. So far no clue to the perpetrators
has been discovered.

A BottomIess Pit.

The Waterville Telegraph has an account
of fire which has broken out in a gully
about four miles northeast of Haddam,
Washington county, and has continued to
burn, apparently in the same spot, for three
weeks. A destructive prairie fire swept
over that locality some time ago. and after
days had passed, and the occurrence was
nearly forgotten, smoke was observed
emerging from the gully. This excited the
curiosity of the scientific ones, and an in
vestigation was made, when it was discov-
cred that the smoke issued from a crevice
in large stone imbedded in the side
of the gully. Some of the wise ones de-
clared it to be vein of coal on fire, as
there are indications OF coal in that vi
cinity. But the smoke docs not smell like
that of coal. 1t is clear smoke and as
cends in large and steady volumes and floats
off over the surrounding country. There
are indications of immense fire beneath the
surface of the earth, and much alarm is
felt. At night the fire and smoke stream
upward toward the dark empyrean, and
darkness is dispelled for long distance
from the place.
