Especial to the SENTINEL

New York, March 26.-As yet no rates
have been announced by the Atchison,
| Topeka and Kansas route, and probably
none will be put in market before April l..
On the one hand it is said that there will
be no com petition with the Pacific roads,
and tina both will work in harmony. On
the other hand, it is rumored that there
will be opposition, and that lively times
are ahead for California shippers, and that
those who have waited will derive the benz
eft therefrom. The Commercial Bulletin
says: 1t is one thing to make & railroad
pool. and another thing to make it work
smoothly. 1t was but a few days ago that
1T was officially announced that the new
Southern Pacific, Union and Central Pa
cifc were wholly in accord in regard to
freights, fares, etc., but crediting the state
ment upon a Chicago authority. There is
already a screw loose, with no lack OF
trouble looming in the future.
The Herald says: The whole distance
from New York to San Francisco by the
new Southern route is not mere than 300
miles longer than by the Northern route,
but the Southern route has better grades,
II IA Va thClt uSChtby WIN "hoAi - ~
porter convsrsed, declared their running
time from ocean to ocean would not ex-
coed the time of the older route by more
than two hours. Whether much Of this
might not be made up on the Southern
Pacific is a matter Of speculation. The
same interest that own the Central Pacific
controls the Southern Pacific, and naturally
they will try to force the larger traffic over
the route which returns them the larger
profits.
Democracy stan q Lively Corpse.
CHICAGO, March 26.-The Times has
caused interviews to be held with several
hundred representatives Democrats in the
Northwest, South and East, and prints
two pages of them, saying editorially !:
The result is not encouraging to those pa
tient people who have been hoping against
hope that the Democracy was dying. The
current of opinion sets strongly against
the d~isintegration of the party, and scarcely
a faint echo of the wall of despair which
went up when Hancock's defeat was an
nounced, is now heard. On the tariff
question the Democrats are widely at vari-
ance. In the West and Northwest the pre-
vailing sentiment is for free tariff or free
trade, but whenever a manufacturing GEN.
ter is approached, a different feeling is
manifested. The feeling in the South is
against active agitation of the subject.
Prayerfnliy Awaiting Death.
ERIE IN, W, March 26.-Kate Lehan, a
girl of sixteen. was frightfully burned
yesterday. Her clothing caught fire while
she was cooking dinner. She rushed out
into the open air, and ran wildly about
until every article of clothing but her
shoes was burned off. Then she walked
back into the house and fell in a swoon.
Excepting her face, which was but slightly
burned, the skin was entirely burned off
her body. She quietly endures her suffer-
ing, prayerfully expecting death.

siness.
New York, March 26.-The Oleomargar-
inc Investigating Committee of the Assem-
bly, has heard testimony showing the Often
sive and deleterious character Of the ma
terial used in the manufacture of that
substance, and also showing that the legiti-
mate trade is seriously effected by this
enormously profitable trade.
