days there have been rumors alloat about
Third street, the origin OF which might DO
traced to New York, to tho effect that the
trunk line war would be settled very soon.
There was story that u conference OF olll-
GERS had been held in Chicago, and com.
mittee Of arbitration appointed, which had
agreed upon the report. The rumor this
morning was that this committee would
state their decision to-day and everything
would be amicably arranged. A Pcnnsyi.
vania Railroad officer in speaking OF this
matter said the rumors were mere Wall
street chatter taken up by the brokers.
There has been no conference and no COM

tlement is required, for matters are not in
such bad shape after all. We are very

STEuBGNvILLE, o., November 22.-The
intelligence Of the people Of u city or town
can be quickly arrived at by ascertaining
how much they read and what they read.
SteubenEille, abroad, is not noted for any
great degree OF "push" in the direction Of
home enterprise yet she has right to lay
claim to degree of intelligence among her
citizens that is surpassed by few cities OF
her size. An investigation into what she
reads, and how much, brings to light the
following figures which may be taken us
the index to her general intelligence: In
this city are sold every week $3.50 daily
papers, published ut Cleveland, Wheeling,
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. For weeklies
and daiies there is sent out OF this city
every week S903 80. The sales OF daily
papers in this city during the past two
years have increased almost two.iold, and
are still on the increase, and there seems
to be no limit to the circulation OF first
class daily papers containing all tho i'm
pOrtant home news, together with the gem
eral news fresh from the wires, The time
is approaching when the enterprising
morning journal Of our large cities will
reach, not alone every home in the smaller
cities and towns, but will be read ut the
