RATE WAR.

CHICAGO, Nov 27-The Times this
morning publishes the correspondence be
tween jay Gould and the presidents of the
roads in the northwest now engaged in q
rate war, which shows that Mr.. Gould pro
posed. and Mr.. Riddle and Mr.. Mitchell
favored a meeting for arbitration and the
restoration of rates. Inquiry to-day es-
tablishes the genuinness of the dispatches
which had been denied, and also gives rea-
son to believe that plan of adjustment
will be agreed upon within "a hours.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27-The World says
that active steps are being taken to termin-

Gould has appealed to the Rock Island and
St. Paul managers to call halt, has been
chronicled. Hugh Riddle replied that he
had no objection to restoring rates, but
thought the question of future extension
quite as important. Alexander Mitchell
urged an immediate restoration of the tar
il, a conference on disputed points, and
provision on arbitration. Commissioner
Midgely has asked the general managers of

WHAT A FALL WAS THERE.

New YORK, Nov. 27.-Jshn Tobin, ex-
president of the Hudson River railway
and at one time power in Wall street
was arrested Saturday evening near the
Staten Island ferry for drunkenness. He
was locked up in the First precinct station
and yesterday was taken before Justice
Morgan, at the Tombs police court, who
discharged him with reprimand. For
merly millionaire, man whose opera
tions set the Stock Exchange in an uproar
and Influenced speculation all over the
country, he has become an utter wreck,
physically as well as financially. In the
days of his prosperity his speculative
schemes were on the scale of those of Cor
nelius Vanderbilt and Daniel Drew, and
he dealt in shares by the hundred thous-
and. Now he is little better than a beg
gar, and, the police say, is rarely seen so

Sherman's Circus.
ALBERT RAY,

The first performance of Sherman's circus
company took place last evening and was
attended by an audience which packed
their large tent so that standing room was
the order early in the evening Since the
appearance of this troupe nearly two years
ago several important changes have been
made to the variety of the exhibition due
to the addition of artists of singular merit
in acrobatic and gyImnastic acts. The
strong feature of Sherman's circus has al
ways been the wonderful performances of
his trained horses, and each season sees
some new trick done by the intelligent ami
mails which makes one wonder where the
limit will be.
Last evening the two horses Tommy
and Barney" went throagh their les.oas
with all the precision of veterans, and the
former seemed to enjoy his low comedy
part thoroughly. The bareback riding and
vaulting of MIR. Joe Williams with his hair.
less horse was very daring, and Miss Kate

The most interesting part of the perform.
ance was that of August Siegris on the
