Horse Car Fares.

Notice is given in one of the papers that application will be made to the General As sembly to reduce the fares of the Fair Haven and Westville Horse Railroad company to five cents On inquiring at the office of the company the officers knew nothing in regard to it but what they saw in the papers, nor did they take much interest about it, as they said the fare is now only five cents if people buy five tickets They sell them at several places in the city and at Fair Haven and Westville They informed the reporter that a five cent ticket carried passenger between the corner of State and Chapel streets and Westville, distance of two and 8 half miles, and that the distance passengers were car ried by this company for the same fare was greater than by any other horse railroad in the State. In Hartford for short distances five tickets are sold for twenty-five cents, but if passengers do not purchase tickets it is seven cents.
 It was stated in an evening paper few days ago that 8 bill will be introduced into the next Legislature to reduce the fares on all the horse railroads in the city to five cents, and we have inquired the rates of fare on the different roads. The West Haven company carry passengers to Savin Rock for twenty cents, to West Haven center ten cents, to the city limits six cents, to Evergreen cemetery six cents, with reduction of one cent if tickets are purchased. The Cedar Hill road charges six cents, the Whitney vile road six cents, the Broadway and Shel- ton avenue road six cents, but all make re- duction of one cent if dollars worth o1 tickets are purchased,

Connection With the Erie.


 Connection between the New York, Lake Erie and Western railroad and the New York and New England railroad was made at Fish kill on Monday. An Erie car loaded with 800 live turkeys shipped from Livonia on the Rochester division and consigned to Providence, R. l., was delivered to the New York and New England railroad, and was the first car to cross the Hudson ferry at New burg. An Erie official in New York says that the character of this first cargo is symboli cal of the fact that they will hereafter be able to ''talk turkey" to all competitors for New England business.
 Preparations for additional rapid transit facilities in connection with the New Eng land under it's new management are being made. One of the managers says it was true that they had discussed a plan for 8 third elevated railroad track along the Ninth avenue line, to which passengers could be transferred who go to New York city over the New England, New York city and North. ern roads, According to this plan trains would be run over the new track from One Hundred and Fifty-ninth street to Rector street or South ferry, making only three or four stops and thus permitting much great CT speed than is made at present. The prin- cipal stoppages would be at One Hundred and Ewenty-ffth street, at Fifty-third street (the junction with the Sixth avenue line) and at Grand or Canal street. Business trains would be run in the morning and evening, and shopping trains in the middle of the day. The only way of building the proposed road, it was said, was upon girders between the existing tracks.

MAKING REsTITUTION.-Asth the person
mentioned below by. the Woodstock Her
ald'' operated, we believe, to some extent
in Augusta. the following paragraph will
be of interest to some of our readers:
about four years ago party passing
under the name of Hunter pretended to be
an agent for the Shenandoah Herald -
and Baltimore ''Gazette." He obtained
about fifteen subscribers in the neighbor-
hoods of Fairv;ew and Black Hill in this
county. before he was arrested He was
tried and convicted of the offence. He
has since abandoned that kind of life and
is now engaged liz regular business in one
of our cities, He desires to make restitu-
ton to the parties from whom he received
money under false pretences. The parties
will please send their names to the Shen-
andoah Herald" office, at once. Those
VIC gave us their names last Monday, of
course, will not consider it necessary"

MONDAY, March Z. 1881.
Owing to the light rnn this week-some 200 ad
of good Chicago cattle failing TO reach here ac-
count of snowdrifts-the wholesale market was fair
ly active and the retail trade sympathized with it
to considerable extent Values genel ally were A
cent higher at retail than last week. but sales were
very slow towards the close, and prices then were
no better than they were last week The offerings
presented better average range than last week
prime cattle being quo;ed plentiful, and common
comparatively much less humorous than they were
then Prices ranged from 21z@6c very few at the
former price and those very common; most sales
were from 454@54c.

Ordinary thin Steers Oxen and Cows 213@3N :.
Extreme range OF prices 23@6
Most OF the sales are from @5es "
HoGs.-The supply this week. though less by a
few hundred than last week. appears to be fully
equal to the demand, which in most of the yards is
only moderate. The quality averages little better
than last weeks offerings, there being more Chicago
hogs among the receipts. We quote at 711@S11c.,
and for few extra fine shade higher figure was
obtained.
SHEEP.-There was no outside demand this week
and butchers bought only in small numbers, being
unwilling t. accede to the demand of owners fol
higher figures, owing to the falling off in the number
of the receipts, compared with last weeks offerings
The qualify was scarcely as good as it was last
week. for though there were as good tops. there
were proportionately more common sheep. We
quote at 4@614c. for common to extra sheep.

An Old Man Killed.

On Monday morning the O'Clock ex-
press on the C. & o. road, took up the
road three collins from the warehouse of
s. M. Wilkes. One Of them was destined
for Goshen. where an old gentleman
named Marshall had been killed on the
track the morning before. When the ex-
press was going up Sunday morning as 1t
neared Goshen an old man was seen ahead
on the track. The engineer blew his whis-
tie repeatedly but it was not noticed by
the old man, and the brakes were then put
down. A gentleman standing by pulled
the old man away from the track just as
the train reached him. When it had pass
ed on the pedestrian again got on the track
and walked on, some of the bystanders re-
marking that No. % freight would catch
Eim. Shortly after, No % came along
a nd though every effort was made to stop
tb long train by the engineer, 1T ran over
Ma, 'saall and killed him.

The Collision on the chesapeake & Ohio
q Railroad,


We gave, last Friday, the details that
had been received by telegraph of the col
lision the morning before on the G. & O..
railroad near Caldwell station. The col
lision took place in a deep cut about a
quarter of mile long, and about three
miles West of the White Sulphur Springs.
and was caused, it is stated, by disregard
of orders. The material train instead of
waiting the arrival of the No. at the sta
ton attempted, by running on No. 9's
time. to make the siding at Hoke's saw
mill. The. through freight was in charge
of conductor Nelson Sneed, with Robt. E.
Noel engineer, and Hunter johnson, of
Quinnemont, fireman, and the material
train was in charge of conductor Glenn,
with M. Ell. Pennington, engineer, and
John Goheen, of Washington, fireman.
The freight was heavily laden with pig
iron, and both trains were going at rapid
speed when the collision occurred. The
engines on colliding stood square up and
then turned their noses into the bank of
the cut, lying directly across the track.
One of them was straddled by one of the
tenders. The box cars Oh the freight were
knocked into .splinters. On the freight
train Hunter Johnson, fireman, was
caught under one of the tenders and IN
stantly crushed to death. His arm was
sticking out of the debris during the hours
that the men were engaged clearing the
wreck, but his body was invisible. r E.
Noel, engineer, was terribly bruised and
scalded about. his face, neck, arms and
body. E. c. King, brakeman, had his leg
broken On the material train Capt. Glenn
received a slight cut in the cheek. M. Ii.
Pennington, engineer, was severely but
not dangerously bruised and scalded. John
Gcheen, fireman, jumped from the engine
and crawled into crevice in the embank-
ment, but his legs which We're exposed
were badly crushed by the splinters and
pig iron and one of them was amputated.
He died the next day. James Miller,
colored hand on the train, was so badly
scalded that he died, and another colored
hand was badly crushed.
