RAILWAY RATES AND PLANS.
EFFORTS TO MAINTAIN FREIGHT RATES.

ADJUSTING THE LIVE STOCK TRAFFIC
The Joint Executive Committee of the trunk lines
and Western roads yesterday discussed the subject
of Uniform rates on live stock shipments, and it was
agreed that "all trunk line companies are to main
tain their respective proportions of the tariff rates on
cattle based upon GO cents from Chicago as soon as
the division of traffic shall be agreed upon" In the
discussion which took place it was insisted that II
was impossible TO secure maintenance OF rates
until there was an adjustment of the allotments OF
freights. As all the traffic reports were not ID II
was decided TO pOsfpOHc the settlement OF the ques-
tion until Thursday at Cleveland. The representa-
tIves of the Western roads asked for readiustment
of eaSt-bound freights and Committee OF Geneial
Freight agents was appointed TO meet in Chicago
on Nav a. to consider the subject tiers were re-
ceivcd from Charles Francis Adams, DAVID 4. NellS
and John A. Wright, accepting the position ot ar
bitrators i'm all questions Of dispute I'm the absence
of the trunk line managers tie vote on cOntlrlha-
ton was postponed until the Cleveland meetng.
The general freight agents o. the trunk INES
have issued an order, giving notice 10 the esleIh
roads that full rates will be cXacted from the GATE
OF tbe previous order. and that rebates VIII bo
allowed on business since April i, not excepting
contract shipments unless by the joint approval OF
the Trunk line and Western Executive Committees.
At the meeting on Monday there was an inter
change of opinion the claims # the Wabash Com
PAW for mileage rate 10 ST. Louis based on me
the roads represented at the meeting favored the
proposed reduction, with the exception Of the New
York Central The decision OF this company was
not expressed and 1t was SAID 10 be probable that
a favorable reply would be received from President
Vanderbilt.

REPORTED COMBINATIONS DENIED.

The published statement that the two roads had
been consolidated under one management, hes been
denied by officers of the New-York and
the Metropolitan Elevated Railroad Companies.
1t was said to be probable that a tenn
porary arrangement woud be made by the com
panes for a division of the receipts. Some such
course was necessary in order 70 determine the com
pensation for the surrender by the New-YOrk Com
pany Of its Pcarl-st line The consolidation of the
companies was impossible, because neither
had the right to lease other lines. ln regard TO
the Manhattan Company it was said thar that
company was formed BY the former Commissioners
of Rapid Transit to provide against failure by
either of the present companies to build their lines
The two companies had subscribed equally for the
stock of the Manhattan Company in order
to prevent any interference wifi their rights.
They had paid per cent on the s.. 900, 600 stock,
but had not kept UP the corporation, which was now
a mere she'll. Its building iisht had expired long
ago and the company was Geluuct. il regard 10 the
right of the NCw-HOrk Company 10 extend its line
d0wn Nassau-st. without further legislation It was
SAID that the routes laid down by the COmmlsso neTs
of Rapid Transit could not be changed.

The important part played by music
in the worship of Jehovah, and the de-
velcpment of the Jewish choral service,
is sufficiently proved by the Old Testa-
ment; and there is all abundance of trea-
tises, both ancient and modern, on Greek
scales or modes. But all this is of COM
paratively little Importance to the mu-
sician and the student of modern music.
1t is true that some of the Greek scales
the Dorian, the Phrygian, the Lydian
and the Mixo-Lydian-are said to be
identical with the four authentic modes
attributed to St. Ambrose, and to be
still surviving in the Gregorian chant,
and On rare occasions modern musicians
have made use of them.
Beethoven, for instance, heads a move
ment in his great quartet in A minor,
"canzana di ringraziamento in modo
lidico offerta ALA divinita da un quarito,"
and List and Rubinstein have borrowed
the augmented intervals of the old East
ern scales. which have survived in the
music of the gypsies and Of some Slavonic
nations. The gypsy heroine of Bizet's
"Carmen" also is well characterized by a
theme containing the superfuous second.
But these few survivals, introduced with
the distinct purpose of gaining local
color, do not constitute real organic
connection between the ancient and the
modern systems.

Mortality In andia From Snake
Bites.
TCthamhnrs' Jo,1rpa1

Readers will be startled to learn that
according to return published in Janu-
ary, 1878, No fewer than twenty-five
thousand human beings lost their lives in
India during the previous year by snake
bites. This lamentable sacrifice Of life is
occasioned not only by the cobra and
kraft, but by other deadly species, and
notably by snake barely a foot long,
the Echis carinata, known also by the
name of Kupper or Foorsa. The effects
produced by snake bite vary according
to the species. Thus, the bite of the
cobra produces coma and speedy death,
whereas the poison of Others, such as Rus
sells viper, produces excessive pain, con-
vulsions, and usually death. The bite of
Echis carinata causes blood to ooze from
the pores Of the victim, who, after lin
gering for week or more, succumbs to
the fatal poison. The number of harm
less snakes is enormously in excess of the
venomous species, or else the mortality
would unquestionably be greater even
than it is; and it is to be deplored that
more strenuous measures are not taken to
eradicate, as far as possible, a tribe of
animals 80 deadly to man.
