THE RAILROAD SETTLENIENT-AN AD-
VANCE IN PASSENGER RATEs.-It is I'M
derstood that the passenger rates will
be advanced tomorrow by the Balti-
more and Ohio and Pennsylvan rail
roads to about the old standard previous
to tAe war. The advance will be in all
directions and to all points. There is a
question for settlement with the Now
York roads involving about 81 on fares
from and to New York and Chicago, as a
basis. and if it is decided to make the
fare between these points SO, as before
the war, the old rates will be resumed
ut all points on the roads. Mr.. Sharp,

way. This was the state of the mat
ter up to Yesterday, but it is learned
that an adjustment has been about
reached, and that the Baltimorcs and
Ohio trains will pass over the road
and over tle New Jersey roads in
day or two. There will be another
advance in freight rates shortly, but
whether the figures will be nearly the

BALL AND hat.

Ouicksteps vs. Media--A Subsfanftal
gictory for the Home Club-Sendin0
the Nees to Media By Pigeon Express.
At the Schuetzen Park, yesterday af-
ternoon, the quicksteps played match
game Of base ball with the Media club a
nine picked from the best players of
Delaware county Considerable inter
est was expressed in the game from the
fact that four Of the Media nine played
with the Energetic club, Of Chester, on
Thursday last, when the Quicksteps suf-
fered such an ungracious defeat, This
fact also made the visitors confident of
victory, and also their friends, and:as n
consequence bets were freely offered and
taken on the result. "'
The game commenced at three O clock.
Hindle won the toss and sent the Madins
to the bat, when they were quickly re-
tired in one, two, three order The
Quicksteps came in, and were also re-
tired with blank.
In the second inning an overthrow to
second, by Hindle, enabled the visitors to
score an unearned run. In this inning
the home club was again blanked, and
tho score standing to 0 in favor Of the
Media, betting was renewed with great
vigor.
In the third inning neither aide scored =,
both doing some fine, close fielding.
At this point OF the game q dispatch
was sent to the friends of tho visitors, in
rather novel manner. A Mr.. Taylor, of
the Media club, who resides at Oakdale,
near Media, brought down with him
three carrier pigeons for the purpose of
keeping his friends at home informed of
the progress Of the game. At the end
of the third inning one of these birds
was released, and with message at
taehed to it, flew swiftly away to inform
the waiting Media friends that the game
stood one to nothing in favor Of their
favorites. Upon beng released the
pigion headed directly north, then veered
around to the southwest, and after max
ing long circuit, came around to the
north again and struck bAe line for
Media
In the fourth inning the visitors were
again whitewashed, bat the home club
by good, safe hits, scored four runs amid

blows were struck outsiders interfered,
and quiet was restored.
The game then progressed the visi-
tors added two runs to their score in the
seventh inning and one in the eighth Civ

steps scored one in the sixth, one In the

their total nine runs and giving them
the game by a clear margin.

THE PHILADELPHIA 81 BALTIMORE CEN
TRIAL n. II. co, FENCING IN THEIR

The war between the Philadelphia d
baltimore Central Railroad Company
and the citizens of Oxford still contin-
nes. The company, says the Oxford
f,ress, claim right of way under the
charter and releases from owners of the
land at the time the line was run, to a
width OF sixty feet at grade, and on this
they have proceeded to set out fences
and stakes all along the line. The
owners OF property adjoining the road
In oxford particularly, who are sue
eessors to the titles since the railroad
was laid out, deny the claims of the
company to 80 great width under the
charter and the latter's possession of
releases OF the same. Hence a dispute
and when the company attem pts to en-
ter upon the land to lay track or erect
fences trouble ensues.
On Saturday last, Mr., Mancil, the
construction master of the company,
proceeded to erect fence on the east
side OF the road, from Broad st. north.

wide, extending to the top of the deep
cut, had been cultivated as part of the
gardens of the parties named and was
planted with corn and potatoes the
present spring,
Mr. Mancil, with two workmen,
erected strong chestnut fence on the
line claimed by the company. The
Two first named owners demonstrated
and forbid procedure; (Mr. Harlan be-
ing away from home); but Mr. Mancil
went on with the work regardless of
all remonstrances and erected the
| fence. A number of citizens were at
tracted TO the spot to witness the oper.
alton, In the afternoon, after the
work was completed and Mr.. Mancil
proceeded to destroy the corn on the
side OF the fence next to the railroad,
Mr. Carver hurled stone at him and
would have attempted other personal
violence had he not been restrained by
friends, Considerable excitement pre-.
vailed, but no bodily injury was done.
In the evening Mr.. Carver cut down
the fence across his garden and threw
1t off the ground.
Mr., Mancil, under instructions, also
destroyed corn and potatoes on the OPP
posite side of the road at this roint,
belonging to Joseph Murdagh and DIR.
J. NJ. Clement without resistance other
than protest from Mr.. Murdagh.
The company notified property hol.
ders all along the line last spring, not
to cultivate the land claimed under
their charter.

The citizens claim that the engineer
who run the road staked Off only thirty
feet through the properties in dispute.
With this understanding they resist
the right of the company to take more
