Fast Freight Lines.

The Chicago Tribune says: IA
movement Is now on foot to abolish
all the fast freight and have all the
through freight business carried on by
the railroads direct. 1t Is generally
conceded that the fast freight lines cost
the railroads q great deal Of money,
much of which could be saved IL they
were abolished. The regular contract
ing agents Of the various roads. 1t is
claimed, could do all the work that Is
now done by the multitude Of agents
employed by the numerous fast freight
lines. It IL charged that the last
freight lines, or most Of them, are
managed In the interest Of come of the
managers Of the roads, and not In that
Of the stockholders. The plea IL made
that the abolishing Of the fast freight
lines would throw number Of laboring
men and clerks out OF employment:
but this claim does not hold good, for
most Of these employees would have TO
be employed In the freight depart
ments OF the various roads, the work
Of which would be greatly Increased.
The only men that would be thrown
out Of work would be an army OF high
priced fast freight line managers.

The latest issue Of the Welland, Ont,
Tribune has the following:
On Thursday of last week the tug
Minerva, which Is engaged In towing
mud scows from the Welland Canal to
the Niagara River, had proceeded well
out into the river just above the Falls
with her usual tow Of three loaded
scows, when the lines holding the last
OF the three parted. apd thu scow reeled
around and made fOf the rapids.
"Jim'' hampton was at the wheel and
with great presence of mind he headed
his tug for the rapids and made o cir
cult around the scow which was now
dsngero&isly near the rocks. In the
meantime the man boarded the two
remaining scows and dumped them.
rendering them easier to handle.
When they approached near enough
the runaway man jumped aboard OF
her, fastened q line, and dumped her.
And now came the tug of war. They
lay on the very edge of the rapids,
when the throttle was thrown wide
open and the tug headed up stream
from the cataract. 1t was nip and
tuck" and they were about to Cut
away part Of the tow wnen' the tug
seemed to gain ajlittle on the current
and gradually emerged into safety
with her full tow. 1t was q daring
trick that but few would care to do,
but Jim" said the scow was new
one, and he was bound not to lose her
and he didn't.

The Hawaiian gazette., 1877-07-04

According to the terms of the treaty " mus
cavado, brown, and all other unre6ned sugar,
meaning thereby the grades of sugar hereto
fore commonly imported from the Hawaiian
Islands, and now known in the markets OF
San Francisco and Portland as Sandwich
Island Sugar. are admitted free of duty"
Secretary Sherman acknowledges that the
washed sugar in question is "unrehned
sugar; but, as it seeias to us he strains
point, and ignoring the item of the schedule
which is "muscavado, brown, and all other
unrefined sugar. he takes refuge in the latter
clause, which is merely definition; and in
spite of the testimony of a score of sugar
dealers in San Francisco, who declared that the
sugar in question was commonly imported
into the ports of San Francisco and Portland
previous to the adoption of the treaty, " and
was known in those places as Sandwich Is
land Sugar." he decides that it is not admit
able free of duty. The books of leading bust
ness houses in this city show that the grade
of sugar under discussion has been exported
regularly to Portland and San Francisco ever
since the early part of the year 1874, and
there can be no question but that it is one of
the many grades of sugar commonly i'm
ported from tie Hawaiian Islands," and
known at the date of the treaty as "Sandwich
Island Sugar.
An injustice has manifestly been done to
the planters of this country by this decision,
and it has been suggested that the matter be
referred to the Courts of the United States,
the planters and merchants interested contri-
buting pro rata to fund for the payment of
expenses. In that tribunal the question would
be decided on the facts and The evidence pre-
sented, which were explicit, and very unani-
nous in our favor.
