THE RAILROAD WAG-our dispatches
this morning announce a decline Of IL
to 20 cents per bushel on grain freight
from the West to New York, as compared
with the rates (i5 eents) prevailing few
days ago. This indicates that the war,
as il is called, between the New York
Central and the other trunk lines will go
on. Indeed, we do not sec how, in the
nature Of things, there can be any COM
promise. The fact is that the contest
now inauguraled il not really war
between the railroads u! all. II Is
war between Philadelphia and BAL
timore. on one hand, and New York
IN the other. 1t is war for COM
mercial supremacy, andhad its actual be.
ginning on the day that the Baltimore &
Ohio finished its new and short line to
Chicago. Baltimore is over $50 miles near
or 10 Chicago than is New York. There
fore the Baltimore & Ohio has claimed
the right to carry grain cheaper than the
longer lines. In other words, she claims
the right to bring n ton of corn by railto
tide water for few cents less than the
same shall be carried to New York. This
discrimination being granted, the grain
trade rapidly turned from New York to
Baltimore. The New York merchants,
seeing the trade which they had
so long held against all rivals
slipping from them, have become
seriously alarmed. The leading men Of
the corn exchange came to Mr.. Jewett and
Commodore Vanderbilt with the CON.
plaint that unless something were done
they must leave New York and go to Bal
timore to continue their business. Every
well,7 says the Commodore, ~ have four
tracks to Buffalo and two to Chicago, |
will see who can best stand the pressure"
And 30 orders were given to the western
agents OF the Vanderbilt lines to make
whatever rates were necessary to secure
the traffic, and we now see the whole
freight business in confusion and
the roads thronged with trains
carrying freight eastward at totally IN
remuneratiSe rates. Grain is carried
for three mills per ton per mile when the
cost OF its transportation is over that.
The New York Central is carrying grain
from Buffalo to New York at two cents
per bushel below the lowest living rate
for the canal boats. The Canada roads
and the Michigan Central are struggling
to secure their share OF the plumber at
losing prices; and SO the war goes on,
each day becoming more desperate and
determined. There was heavy decline
in the price of Michigan Central stock
yesterday. A letter Of protcs! written by
the Erie, Pennsylvania and Baltimore
magnates to Commodore Vanderbilt on
the 9Th of April has received no salts
factory response, and the anarchy will
possibly soon extend to the passenger
traffic and westward bound freights as
we'll.

The CASE OF JUDGE CYRUS HALL
We alluded the other day to the queer
case tried recently in Richie county, in
which Mr.. Taylor claimed that Judge
Cyrus Hall had added to receipt for a
draft on bank for certain amount Of
money the words, (which l agree to pay
him." Taylor swore that he gave Hall a
simple receipt for the draft, but when
the instrument was exhibited in court
1t was found to be in effect note, having
at the end OF the words, (which agree
TO pay him."
The question for the jury to determine
was, did the addition Of these words, as.
suming that they were added after Tay.
lOr signed it, comprehend the crime Of
fOrgeryH
Judge Monroe Jackson, before whom
the case was tried, ruled that the words
did not add to the obligation Of the paper,
and therefore did not constitute forgery.
In this the Parkersburg Journal is Of the
opinion he made decided mistake,
and we are inclined to think the Journal
takes a correct view Of the case. 1t says:
With all due Difference to Judge jack
sons decision, we must take issue with
him. II Al gives B an ordinary promis.
sorry note, and B adds to il the words lin
good money! then the change Is an I'M
material one, and the courts have so heidi
because the law fixes the standard Of
money and not the instrument. But in
this case, assuming that the words men
toned were added to the instrument
afterwards, the whole character Of the
paper was changed. Instead of re-
CeipL Il was converted by this change
into note and is as collectible as any
promissory note. II this verdict is ac-
cepted as precedent every business man
stands poor show II his receipts should
happen to FALL into the hands Of an un-
ScrupulouS man.

rHE WHISKY cAsEs.

In the United States District Court
this morning, District Attorney Dyer
moved that sentence be passed upon
several gaugers and storekeepers who
pleaded guilty, but their attorneys desir.
ed the privilege Of presenting statements
and facts in mitigation Of their
ofIenses, and the court granted until to.
morrow morning to prepare affidavits to
that effect. The government counsel in.
terposed no objections to this, but on the
contrary expressed the desire that the de-
PENDANTS should have every reasonable OPP
portunity to present such matters as
would place the court IN possession oi
all the facts in their cases. It was an.
nounced that no action would be taken at
present in the cases Of Fitzroy, Thorpe
and McFall. The government wishes to
uSe them as witnesses before the present
grand jury, and also in some civil cases
now pending.

oPthe 100000 wanted by the Tuscaru.

between Urichsyille and the Ohio river

Through which the road will run for

$4,000. Bridgeport and the Valley Of

another one hundred thousand dollars,

that the company want..S50O,OOO, in all,

berlain, Streator and others to Wheeling
short time ago. They want to know
how our people feel about helping to
bring through new line from Cleveland
to this city. As yet there has been no
response. Perhaps this would not be
the case were it not that the P. W.. Ky.
road is absorbing so much Of whatever
practical railroad interest is felt in our
midst. Those likely to take the most
monied interest in such an enterprise have
already interested themselves in the COM
plction of the unfinished P. w

not therefore think strange that no
apparent results have followed their con-
ference here in reference to the compile
ton Of the Tuscarawas road. 1t is not
that their enterprise lacks appreciation
and good will in our midst. Not by any
means. In the language OF the song, we

are, er neees,iidts rel, compelled to be hap

afforded aid to Turkey only against
some one of themselves-that the
balance of power in Europe might
not be destroyed.
In the year 1921, when little, gall
liant Greece-only three millions
strong--rose in mighty power
against Turkish tyranny, the other
Powers stood aloof Greece kept up
her heroic resistance for eight long
years against Turkish maltreatment
and murderous assaults until inter-
ference on the part of the Great
Powers became merely question of
humanity. Turkey was required to
acknowledge the independence of
Greece. Greece set up for herself
and is to-day numbered among the
nations of tho world.
We may then reasonably infer,
Judging from the history of the
eastern question:" that the Great
Powers of Europe will not at once
interfere with the progress of the in
surgent army against the Turkish
Government They will simply look
on for the present, and sec fair play.
This is the acknowledged principle
of International law.
Though Servia is taking the lead,
and stands for the time being alone
in the field against the Turks, the
rest of the provinces are in hearty
sympathy with her present efforts,
and will mako common cause in her
final struggle. Thor united forces
will be nearly quarter of million
strong--eapabie of resisting the
Turkish army, and, perhaps, of driv-
ing the Turks across the Bosphorus.
The insurgent army is lead by the
most skilIful Generats-Generals who
have seen service in the recent Eu
ropean wars. They are intent upon
death or victory. They arc fighting
for "their firesidcs and their affairs !"
aud their efforts WILL we trust, be
crow ned with success.
The days of the Ottoman Empire
are numbered Its power is in a
state of decay. 1t lot alone by the
other Powers, the Empire will fall
by its own weight. The natural
process Of disntegration will give it
the final death blow
The military strength of the Turk
ish Empire is variously estimated.
The regular army consists of 200, 900
men. Tue reserve and contingent
forces from tho several provinces
may possibly bring the entire army
up to 600, 900 men. Such an army
could hardly hold at bay, for any
length Of time, successfully, the
troops of its European provinces,
which are intent upon their inde-
pendencc. In view of these and
other facts, may We not look for
speedy revolution in the affairs of
