chest-nuts, it will be time enough for
him to decline the honor; there is at
present, however, no necessity for his
borrowing trouble on this score. But as
he seems to be bottled up with vengence,
which he proposes to pour on the devoted
heads of his former political associates,
and is disposed to pick quarrel with the
inoffensive Bourbons, it is certainly with
in the probabilities of the case, to con
clude that his purpose is to render an
accommodation with the conservative
leaders impossible, and, by professions
of devotion to the Independent cause,
seek to divide the people, and secure the
election of the machine ticket.
The first authorized utterance Wolfe
made against the Cameron ticket, was
after all hope of his securing the nomin-
alton for Attorney-General on it had
vanished, when he sent the following
telegram to Senator Mitchell:
LEwIsBuRG, May Il, 1SS2.--Senator Mitchell,
Washington: The ticket is made for war or
slavlsh Submission. CHARLES s. WOLFE.
The second dispatch was sent from the
same place, and on the same day, and
| reads as follows:
Senator Mitchell, Washington: Please &C.
cept my most sincere thanks for your gener-
GUS expression of confidence. You will not
be disappointed in asserting that l have not
| compromised myself. I admire your manly
| stand. Ca ARIES ). WOLFE.
The Philadelphia Times, in comment
ing on this correspondence and Mr..
Wolfe's supposed connection with the
Harrisburg convention, says:
If Mr.. Wolfe had simply performed the
plain, truest and imperative duty to himself
| of declaring to the public, one week ago, that
/ he neither sought, desired nor would accept
| a place on the machine ticket, he would have
| saved himself from almost universal suspicion;
| from the open condemnation of many; from
| the fatal praise of the most abject organ of
| the boss system; from the advocacy OF Cam
eron and Quay as their slated candidate, and
from the public crucifXion he suffered at
Harrisburg. Why he did not, can be explained
only on one of two championships he was
open to compromise for individual promo.
| ton, or that he is ignorant of the very intel.
lgent theory and instinct of self preservation.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The Alleged Var In Rates Bet,ceen the
northeastern, Rock Island and HIT
soaMlsee C st. Paul Rsa is.
milwaukee Special MAY 19) to Chicago
Tribune.]
Upon inquiry at the general Office to-day Of
the st. Paul company regarding the war in
rates alleged to exist between the Northwest
ern, Rock Island, and that company on st.
Paul business, the Tribune reporter was in
formed that there was no foundation for
identifying the st. Paul company with any
such trouble. The information was further
to the effect that the company's earnings to
both st. Paul and Minneapolis had been re.
Gently as large or larger than for similar
period during any previous year, and although
rates now current to those points In some
cases are slightly lower than heretofore, the
reduction is incidental to natural causes
rather than to any misunderstanding
or bad feeling with other lines COM
peting for the same traffic. Through
the combined efforts of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul and Chicago & North
western freight officials the rates on merchan-
disc and grain from this point to southern
cities have been made similar to those made
by the Chicago roads from that point. Both
roads to-day issued through freight tariff
announcing reduction of fifteen cents on
first class, twelve cents on second.class, ten
cents on third. class, seven cents on fourth,
and five cents on grain. The local roads
| fought long and hard to secure for Milwau-
kee good portion of the southern fright
demand, and have finally succeeded. Milwau-
kee, so far as southern freight is concerned,
is placed upon the same footing as Chicago,
and will prove powerful competitor to that
place in the shipment of freight South. No
dlfferentlal rates will, of course, bs made, but
it is understood that the local companies will
be allowed to pro rate ten per cent.

The Proposed Compromise.

Alderman Gienn's motion made in the city council
last Wednesday evening respecting the paving of
Washington avenue, will probably be reported
upon favorably by the committee on
paving ct the next meeting. The
resolution ia q compromise. The city council has
little faith in cedar blocks while many o. the prop
perty owners do not wasn't granite Alder III an
Glenn's motion Is to pave Washington avenue from
Fourth avenue north to Third avenue south
with cedar blocks, and from Third
avenue south tn Eighth avenue south with granite
blocks. c.ylhirs could be more fair. Aid. Glenn
has been thoroughly convinced that granite Is much
the better material for paving streets which the
heas .ssfic OF le city must pass and it is from
Third to Eight, streets inst this traffic passes, while
the property owners who are loudest In their CRY
for cedar blocks are located on that portion of
Washington avenue which he proposes
10 pave With cedar blocks.
1t is tbs manifest hope of all that something will
be speedily done In the matter, and that the work on
paving begin, especially that portion Of the street
where the severe, water mains, ETC., have been COM
peted.
In the meaptime, why not take some action re-
spectipg paving the Islssd and Hennepin and Nicol
let avenues? Every time We have q rain storm
these streets become almost impossible owing to the
depth of the mud.

Mr.. Wolfe, of Pennsylvania, who has
been so prominently connected with the
Independent movement in that State
during the last year, and who recently
put forth such Herculean efforts to bring
about an accommodation between the
Independents and the Republicans with
the view, it Is alleged, of securing his
own political advancement, has lately
found it quite convenient to make such
oral and written explanations of his con-
duct, as the exhibition of little higher
regard for his own hitherto good name
and the interests of the people would
have entirely obviated. The conserva
tives of Pennsylvania, and in fact of the
whole country, have settled down into
the belief--and not without reason--that

enemy's camp in order to secure for him.

If Mr.. Wolfe was Of the opinion that
his friends and former political associates
misunderstood his position and motives,
the time for HIM to have disabused their
minds, was when the Independent COM
