RAILROAD RATES.
The Cutting Still Continues

Only SIS from New York to

New YORK, July 2G.-The warfare in
passenger rates to the West between
the trunk lines still continues unabated,
and it is probable it will continue for
some time to come. In fact the strug-
ge between the companies, which has
for the last few days been tame in char
acter, Was renewed this morning with
increased energy. Yesterday afternoon
the New York Central and Hudson
River Company announced that they
would sell tckels TO Chicago for
IS so, to Cincinnati IS 90 and to ST..
Louis for Sl3.75. This measure was at
once followed by the Pennsylvania Cen
tral, New York Central, Lake Erie and
Western, and Baltimore and Ohio rail-
roads. When the ticket brokers or
"scalpers" opened their offices this
m Orning there was great rush for
tickets, which were offered at the fol-
lowing rates: Chicago $500, Cincinnati
s. 80, and st. Louis Sl3.25. At the reg
ular ticket Offices tickets were sold at
the same rates as were established by
the Pennsylvania road yesterday until
about half.past 10 O'Clock, when samuel
Carpenter, ticket agent OF the Penn
sylvania Central Company, sent
dispatches to all the ticket officers OF the
line, instructing the agents to sell tickets
to Chicago for S. 90, to Cincinnati for
$50, and to st. Louis for Sl3.25. AS
soon as we hear the scalpers are selling
below our rates we shall instruct our
agents TO sell at the same price asked
by them, and we can keep up this fight
as long as any one. We are not waging
any warfare against the scalpers, but it
is against the Erie and New York Cen
trail that We a:c fighting, for they are
selling tickets to these scalpers and per-
hitting them to sell them at rates lower
than they are sold over their own coun-
terS.

LONDON, July 26.-The British press,
irrespective OF politics, agree in express
ing the belief that England can rely on
the good faith OF America in endeavor-
ing to prevent renewal OF the overt at
tempts by conspirators against the
British government.
The Manchester Guardian says:
America will doubtless omit no effort
within her capacity to Discharge her OBJ
legations, not only towards international
fellowship, but in the common interest
of humanity. The difficulty is to see
what more America can do to prevent
internal machines from being shipped
than England to prevent their landing
The same journal doubts the wisdom 0l
asking the federal or State authorities to
put check on the safety valve supplied
by the vaporings OF the Fenian press.
The Standard thinks the American po-
lice could by this time have discovered
something as to who shipped the infer.
nal machines. Public opinion, it says,
will demand a full inquiry, and we are
sure the American government will CON
slstently with it's own municipal law,
show every desire to help us. We
hope due diligence will not
bear the same Interpretation as in the
Alabama case. We demand no damages.
We only ask friendly aid in checking an
infa,nons cOnSDiracy
The morning Post thinks the time has
come when America should adopt
similar attitude towards O'Donovan
Rossa and others. They abuse her hos.
pltality as England did towards Johann
Most. As regards the attempted repeti-
tions OF the outrages, it says: "We will
not do America the injustice OF suppos-
ing that only sense of personal risk to
her own citizens will induce her to take
strong measures"

THE SAN FRANCIS COMMIT.
Investigating the Charges
Against Supt. DOdge-What
They VIII Try to Prove.

SAN Francisco, July 26-In the in.
vestigation of the Mint affairs the taking
OF testimony began to-day. Blanchard,
counsel for Page, announced that he
was ready 10 proceed under the ninth
charge, that the administration OF Dodge
was extravagant and corrupt. 1t was
expected to prove that Dodge received
bullion below 900 fine and remitted the
charges of deductions; that the bullion
known as Northern Belle was received
from the Anglo California Bank.
and that it was unfit for use.
thereby entailing great loss
to the government; that his atten-
ton was called to the quality Of the
bullion, and that he neglected to rem
edy the evil; that his action was in the
interest of the depOsitors and caused a
loss to the government; that the losses
to the government in the manipulation
of silver bullion have been unusual
and extravagant; that bullion has been
stolen, and while some were prosecuted
others were allowed to resign, and such
facts were not reported to the prop.
er authorities. Dodge, sworn, testified
that he had not control Of the melter and
retner OF the mint; that they received
their commissions the same as himself.
The assayer determines the character OF
the bullion and fixed the charges. My
instructions are not to receive bullion
below 900 fine. These Instructions
received about year ago; before took
bullion as low as 500 fine. The retiner
did not object to receiving
bullion below the standard. The
depositors paid part OF the refining
charges; made no deduction to save the
government from loss, as none were
necessary; the law did not require it.
Losses in the coming and refining room
were available. 1t rwould probably
not have been so great had the deduc.
tons been made. The Anglo Caiiiorni-
an bank has deposited other than north.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, u NJ. - Col.
Rockwell, who has Just come from the
Presidents chamber, says the patient Is
res: ing very comfortably and he con-
sidcrs that he is doing as we'll as could
reasonably he expected. In response to
Il question whether there had been or
would be any further operations per-
formed on the President, he said: No,
there has been but the one operation,
and Judging from present indications,
we do not anticipate that any more VIII
be necessary. Continuing, the Colonel
said that at the morning dressing the
wound discharged several small pieces
OF bone supposed to be from the frac-
tured rib.
Report OF Second Operation Denied.
ExECUTIvE MANSION, July %, 2:20 P.
M-rhe reports which have been tele-
graphed hence to-day, to the etlect that
serious operation was perforated this
evening iOr the purpose OF removing u
part OF the Presidents fractured rio, are
without foundation. The wound has
not been touched since the morning
dressing, and the only operation per-
formed thrn was the pulling out by DR..
Bliss, with his fingers, Oi two or three
small spicuiar Of the splintered bone
which clogged the passage and impeded
the outflow OF pus. The surgeons don t
admit that there is anything critical or
dangerous in the Presidents condition
this evening. On the contrary they say
he has had 4 fairy comfortable day;
that the discharge from the wound this
morning, although not large, was not 50
scanty a, TO indicate any new cOmpllca-
ton; that the patient at this hour Is Tree
from fever and Is resting quietly, and
that his general condition Is AT least as
good rs it was Yesterday.
Better Than at the Same Time Yesterday.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, p. M.-The
President has had comfortable day,
and in the opinion OF the surgeons is
better now than he Was at this time yes

greater part oi the afternoon has been
normal. His pulse is not high, and his
general condition is good. There has
