The Railroad War.

The New York Tribune and the Phila.
delphia American are 10th convinced that
the railroad war is likely to go on, and
that, in consequence, we may again sec
low treights this summer-lower than
ever perhaps. There was, however, a
better feeling in New York, yesterday OR
tumora that the trunk lines would prob,
ably adjust their quarrel without another
long and hot Bcrimmage for business.
One Of the bad features about this
threatened renewal Of the railroad war
is the damaging effect that it ia having Oh
the value Of all investments in railroad
securities. For instance, the shares Of
the Baltimore 4 Ohio road have fallen
to l20 az against 172 year ago, and
those Of the Pennsylvania road from ll5
to 7G4. There are thousands Of people
who have their savings, or portion Of
them, invested in the stocks and bonds OF
these roads, and the fact that they have
steadily declined for long while past
shows that public confidence is in danger
OF being wholly undermined in the value
Of such securities, and panic in them
produced such as may lead to their
wholesale sacrifice. The decline in the
market value Of the shares Of these trunk
lines in the last two years has been over
S7GOOO,OOO.

Warm Resolutions from u Rev
England Conference.

BosToN, April 4.-The New England
Conference OF the NJ. L. Church opened
to-day, Ill OF the 245 members being
present. Resolutions on the Southern
question were presented by Rev. W. +.
Mallien, D. d., Of Boston, and upon being
read were received with great applause,
and by vote Of the conference were re-
ferred to u special committee Of five, to
be appointed by the chairman. The pre-
amble to the resolutions reviewed the
blighting effects Of slavery, and the two
final resolutions are, in substance, as fol-
lows:
ReSOtred, That We are alarmed and
filled with apprehensions for the future
when we contemplate the sale OF one Of
the great political parties OF the Repub
lie by two politicians OF that party, who
have held and now hold, very intimate
relations to the President, thus sacrificing
principle, party and righteousness, for
the sake OF temporary success.
ResOsted, That we protest most earn
estly against the action OF the new adj
ministration in making terms with the
chief Of the Ku-Klux, instigator Of the
Hamburg massacre, NJ. G. Butler; and
still more earnestly protest against the
official recognition by the administration
OF that arch enemy OF the Republic who
long since ought to have been hung for
treason, Wade Hampton, of South Caro-.
lima, who now by threats and intimida-
tion under the very roof Of the White
House as well as on railroad platforms
and in other public places deies the
power Of the government and bullies the
President into compliance with his
traitorous and wicked usurpations.

Municipal AUTHORIZATIONS.

1t should be remembered that the
special feature Of the legislation had last
winter, affecting our city affairs, was that
estimates, as nearly accurate as possible,
should be made for each department
and the amounts arrived at laid before
the Council, in order that taxes may be
levied accordingly and special appropri
ations made. 1t is OF Importance to bear
in mind that no expenditures will be
lawful except under such appropriations
There will not be much difficulty, We ap'
prehend, in determining the amounts nee
essary to be appropriated for the several
departments with the exception Of the
department ofStreets and Alleys. Upon
the cleaning Of streets and alleys alone
there has heretofore been enormous and
extrNVagant expenditures, aggregating at
the end oieach year far more than any
Council within our remembrance would
ever have appropriated for the purpose
at tho beginning Of any fiscal year.
The difficulty in this particular depart,
ment is in securing any basis of calcula,
ton which will llapprOuch acurate results
Indeed it is questionable whether the
committee can estimate from the month
ly returns OF the Street Commissioner
the actual cost OF cleaning the
streets of this city. We offer as a sug'
gestion for the consideration Of the Com,

the completion OF the TuscarawHs road
to tho Ohio river, not only on account Of
the paramount interests involved in the

At this time our nail mills are compelled
to equalize freight with the mills further

Importance to the tormer to get mini

costs from u to 10 cents per keg to equal
iEe the freight on nails to many points in
the West. A saving OF 3 cents on this
great drawback to our prosperity would
be OF decided value to this city. A third
line TO Chicago and the Northwest would
exert a very marked influence In keeping
down rates to the minimum. We now

FOREIGN NEWS.
EASTERN QUESTION.

LONDON, April 4.-Thc Times remarks
that the lack Of elation in public feeling
at the signature Of the protocol and
weighing various influences which might
incline Russa to peace or war says, II ia
doubtless true that war can only bc car.
ried on at an immense sacrifice, and
that those with anything to lose know
this, and permit their zeal TO cool nc.
cordingly. All intelligence from ST.
Petersburg and chief cities confirm this
opinion, but at the same time the ac.
counts Of the Russian war preparations
are too numerous and consistent to be
ficticious.
LONDON, April "A special from
Belgrade to the Times, notices the dis.
persal Of the foreign officers, who were
recently in the Servian service to Russia,
Greece, Bosnia, Persia and other coun.
tries hostile to Turkey, and says; Its
stated that 100 members Of Russian
service crossed secretly, and have landed
at Jassy and are arranging hospitals
there. The indications on the political
horizon, suggest that while the diplomat.
lists are grumbling over the meanings Of
words, events are drawing a Gordon
around Turkey, which may soon furnish
a surprising spectacle to Europe.

FaIInre Of n Grain Operator.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 4.-The failure
Of Mr.. Friedlander, q prominent grain
operator, is announced. Mr.. +. states
that in case he can collect the amounts
due him his Indebtedness will be about
5000, 900 as near as he can Judge from the
present condition Of affairs. His in.
debtedness is entirely local and effects
but lew persons or firms, all Of whom can
stand II without, perhaps, one exception.
He attributes his failure to some extent
to losses on charters, having early in the
season chartered vessels at high figures
which hO was afterwards obliged to
re'charter at lower rates, but the
greatest weight under which he labor
ed was the condition Of affairs in
the San Joaquin valley. He had bought
large tracts there, which he afterward
sold to farmers, who paid down small
portion Of the purchase money. Bad
crops prevented the continuance OF these
payments, and he advanced means 10
help them to SOW the ground and con,
tinue business. Last years part was
repaid to him, but the gloomy prospects
OF the present season in thai section Of
the country convinced him that it was
useless TO struggle longer. A meeting OF
MS creditors will be held on Saturday or
Monday next, when future course will
bedeCided upon. The report has created
surprise and called forth much sympathy
in the city.
FRlEDLANpER's DEBTS.
SAN Francisco, April 4.-The failure
OF Mr.. Friedlander is the principal topic
OF conversation and rumor has been run.
ming wild as usual. The facts already
telegraphed may be relied on rs correct
as far us they go. As regards creditors
and who they are Friedlander at present
declines to name. 1t is reported on ap.
parently good authority that his principal
creditor is the Nevada Bank, 1t is
known that after the failure Of the Bank
OF California Mr.. +. transferred his nc.
counts for some two months to London
and the San Francisco Bank, from which
they were carried to the Nevada Bank.
The officers Of that bank decline to
make any statement, but it is re.
ported that Mr.. f. owes there
upwards OF million dollars, secured on
real estate. There is also a reported in.
debtedness to the Bank of California,
contracted prior to the failure OF that in.
stitution, Of several hundred thousand
dollars and also secured on real estate.
Falkner, Bell Il Co, are reported to hold
his notes for some two hundred thousand
dollars, and Balfown, Guthrie & Co. for
about half that amount. There seems to |
be good grounds for the belief that an |
arrangement will be nade,by the credi. |
tors to enable Mr.. Friedlander to resume
at an early date. lie states personally |
that the failure Of the Bank OF California |
placed him in very cramped position |
for available funds from which he has
not since been able to extricate himself. |

Cleveland mud Mhnnrinr

Cleveland Herald Of yesterlay.l
There is now little doubt that at yery
early date direct connection between
Cleveland and Wheeling, by way of the
Cleveland, Tuscarawas Valley & Wheel.
ing Railroad, will be made. The line has
been completed and running to Uhrichs-
vile for some time. From that point
two routes to the Ohio river were under
consideration, one striking due south to
Marietta and the other continuing the
southeastern course OF the completed line
to Wheeling, where connection could be
made with the Baltimore & Ohio and the
lines connecting with the Pennsylvania
system. The decision in favor OF the
Wheeling line was made, and on Monday
and Tuesday party OF about fifty repre-.
sentatives Of the most important interests
OF Wheeling passed over the completed
portion OF the line and inspected the
terminal facilities at Black River and
Cleveland. The result OF the inspection
was evidently satisfactory. At an inter.
view Tuesday morning with the officers
OF the line in this city, the Wheeling rep.
rCsentatiyes expressed themselves highly
pleased with the railroad and its connec.
tions and facilities. The remarks made
and assurances given were such as 10
leave no doubt that all the aid asked
from Wheeling for the southerly exten.
sion OF the road will be readily furnished,
and that the work Of closing the gap Of
ffty.fve miles will soon be commenced
and pushed vigorously to completion.
The party Of inspection was made up
Of representative men, whose verdict will
undoubtedly be accepted without hesita.
