A cable dispatch received here at o'clock
evening before last, brought the news that
Bishop Chatard had arrived safely at Queens
town that day. "He probably did not land"
said the reverend father who gave the reporter
the information, "Uut went on by the steamer to
Liverpool, where he took the train for London,
ana then hurried on to Paris and from there to
Rome. The council TO which he is delegated
meets in Rome on the first day OF next month,
and he desires to be there "A few days before the
session begins" The reverend father was asked
If the Catholic clergy here generally were of the
opinion that Bishop Chatard would be made
Archbishop of Philadelphia, and while not at
tempting to voice that opinion, answered: Il do
not look upon his accession to the archbshopric
of Philadelphia as by any means certain, and
think 1t much more probable that Bishop OHara,
OF Scranton, Penn, Will be Archbishop Woods
successor. Bishop O'Hara is over sixty years
old do not know his exact age-and has been
bishop about twelve years. He is in the Phil
adelphla province, which Is greatly in his favor.
You must understand that in choosing an arch
bishop the bishops OF the province are first con-
suited, and next the archbishOps of the United
States. Bishop O'Hara's age Will not be against
him when the Pope comes 10 make choice of an
archbishop. The duties OF an archbishop are not
specially arduous. He has 10 Jurisdiction over
the dlOceses in his province, except when a
council is called, and then he presdes; or, il "A
dispute arises in a diocese, he comes i'll mis- Off
clal capacity TO sit as a judge"

THOSE SPECIAL RATES.
Only Round About Way of Cutting Freigh
Rates.

Only a Roundabout Way of Cutting Freight
Rates.
One of the growing evils in the freight bust
mess is that of giving special rates, and now, as
The New Year approa ohes, AN experienced freight
man says would be a good time to make a re-
Form. Special rates on local traffic is more es-
pecially alluded to- So much Of this special con-
tract business is done that 1t is really useless to
prepare local tariff, as, il man has only
few hundred pounds of freight to ship, he will
ask for special rates, which is only round
about way of cutting rates, and if shipper
gets special rate in January of each year. he
teXpects that every mound of freight he ships
during that year will be carried on such rate.
The freight man argued that it would he better
FOR all classes of shippers to have the tariff based
On low figures the special rates:
iThen there wonld he much less red tape and
Ness trouble to clerks to keep the of matters.
s1he freight man added, TO show to what
tent this giving special rates was carried on,
that he could take the railroad reporter TO a To-
zeal office here in Indianapolis where there was
ia book kept, and that book would show special
rates to a Thousand or more parties their
jrOad 262 miles in length, and this road was no
deeper in rOund-abOut ways OF cutting rates
than It's competitors.

The Method by Which Scalpsrs DemOralize
Rates.
At the conference of President Malott, Cen
eral Manager Richardson. of the Chicago and
Ohio river pool, and Murray Keller, general
ticket agent of the L., N. A. & c., and other pas
senger men, Mr.. Keller made the statement that
be could buy a ticket from Indianapolis to Chi
cage over the Cincinnati, Indianapolis St. Louis
& Chicago road at a 81 cut. Manager Richard
son doubted it, and proposed to test the matter
and gentleman who was a stranger in the city,
in whom both parties had confidence, was desig-
mated as the man to buy the ticket. Mr.. Keller
Instructed him to go to certain
tickef-scalper. and buy a ticket via
Chicago to Kansas City. The party did so. The
6ealiaer Went 10 the Union Depot, purchased the
ticket one nay limit, paying 1898, the fl rate.
The scalper received commission of So, it is
stated, from rhe Chicago e. Alton road. This he
divides with the purchaser of the ticket, or at
aeast he cut the rate $3.50, and gave a rebate of
SO on a Chicago scalper. These were brought to
Manager Richardson, ana he was made to be-
1eTe that the TRANSACTION was shared In by the
C, l., st. L. d. C., and thar John Egan, the gen.
eral PASSENGER agent, would redeem the portion
OF The ticket between Chicago and Kansas City
on presentation. Now, for tho facts in the
phe full rate was paid at the Union
part of the c. & A commission
80 the purchaser, aud had this ticket
been used tie Chicago soalper would. as he has
I'm the past, have paid the 80 rebate. 1t is stated
THAT through an arrangement that the scalpeTs
have with the Chicago & Alton, ticket bearing
the letter stamped upon 1t, or other
mark. as the company and scalper may agree
npon, is honored regardless of the day limit.
while with others. the passenger department of
the g. & A. is said to have an arran cement by
which they redeem all unsold tickets in the
Bands of scalpers at the end Of each month. Be
fhis as it NAV, it is plain that the c., / ST. l. &
