The Management of the p, Fl ". & C.

A gentleman who has been prominently iden-

Pennsylvania company had overreached and
had built the e., St l.. & p. up at the expense of

drawn larger per cent. of the travel to the c.,

the Pennsylvania road proper was not so much
mfavOrably affected in the matter of treights,
as the through passengers OF both roads at Pitts

per cent of the freight, more especially out of
Chicago, had been carried in cars of Erie fast
freight lines which, on reaching the New York.

which thus would have otherwise gone over the

GENERAL NEWS,

Views of an Eminent Judge on the Regula
ton of Rates.
Judge Cooley, of Michigan, has for some time
past been giving his attention to the problem of
regulating rates, and has come to the cOnclu-
sion that rates must yield and accommodate
themselves to innumerable circumstances and
contingencies. expected and unexpected, and
they must be met and provided for by the gov
erning power as they arise. No other known
business requires larger technical skill, greater
ability or wider experience, and the ablest
wtsest and most experienced man would be
guilty Of an act of supreme folly, if, with ample
power, he undertook to prescribe unbending
rnles for future charges. To prescribe tariffs of
rates for one road, or the roads of one State,
(which the competitors are not obliged to OBJ
lserve, would be like prescribing in advance by
law the movements of an army while the enemy
was at liberty to maneuver at discretion. Rail
road competition is an earnest strife If not
warfare, and experience heretofore has shown
THAT all that can be done by common arrange
Iments and understandings is simply to prevent
|the strife from becoming mutually destructive"

The Art loan Exhibit.

The attendance at the exhibit yesterday was,
because of the rain, smaller than on the previous
day. A number of fine pictures have been hung
In the first room. which, previous to their re-
moval were not in as favorable a position as
they now are. Tho musical programme ar
ranged for tonight, by Mrs. Hammond, will be
an excellent one. Mr. Levi, who is q remarka-
bly, fine tenor, has promised to sing with Mrs
Hammond
The Cincinnati Enquirer says Of the exhibit:
"The exhibit itself is a great success, and too
much cannot be said in praise of those who
brought 1t all about. The managers viewed
their perfect work with great satisfaction, and
threw open the doors for the clamorOus and
eager art-lOVers of the city to enter. The price
of admission, 25 cents, was so ridiculously low
that really, you know, IL seemed like refiee-
ton upon the culture OF the city. The exhibit
has been open two weeks, and 1t
been taken in to pay the rum
ming expenses. not to speak of insurance
charges, etc. After the first few days the man.
ayers began to despair. In vain they appealed,
through the public prints, for the 'art-lovers to
rally. But their voices were the voices of those
crying in wilderness. The art-lOvers did not
come. They could not be flushed. The pictures
appear to have some fearful quality that causes
their habitat to be Stunned. 1t was suggested
that the Board of Health be called in to see if
any contagien lurked in Moran's magnificent
Glencoe Pass or Nichols superb Sunlight on
the Sea- or DonOhOs masterful 'At the Edge Of
the Woods"
There is some truth in what the Enquirer says
The exhibit has certainly not received the
patronage 1t misunderstanding like it-but the
ladies in charge an improvement, and are
hopeful, il not confident, that they will not fall
in debt, and may, if the attendance continues to
increase, actually make something above ex-

A Poor Way to Build Up Business.

yson that the only passover train run daily be-

miles should be eight hours and twenty min
tutes making the run, the Journal would gladly
give such reason to the travelling public. A

man can hardly afford to travel freiSht-tran

NEWCOMB TAKES CHARGE.
Transfer of the POstohice-A List of the
New Appointments

Postmaster Newcomb assumed charge of his
office yesterday. The transfer was conducted
quietly and in the presence of but few per-
sons. Mr.. Newcomb found the business of
the office in a confused state consequent upon
the imperfect arrangements for receiving and
distributing the mail, and occasiOned to
large extent by the absence of proper facilities
for the work. MIR. NewcOmb proposes making
many improvements, one of which will be the
use OF two delivery windows, so that mail may
be procured more eXpeditiOusly than former
ly. 1t is also understood that better arrange
ments will be made for the sale of stamps.
Postmaster NewcOmb's chief assistant is
Captain Philip Braubach. For the present the
registry clerk is w. II. Huston; the stamp
clerk, w. III. Paine; the mailing clerk, Grif
Jones the delivery clerk, II G. Wickcs the
night clerk, NJ. VOkS; the superintendent of
letter carriers, Joseph Macarthur. No other
offices are to he filled.
When the POstOflice was visited to-day the
business was being conducted quietly and with
CELEBRITY.
1t is reported that eX-POstmaster Manning
will stay in the city. The business he will en-
gage i'll has not been mentioned.

Good Words for San Antonio by st. LOUIS
Judge.

GOOD words Tor San Antonio by a ST. Louis
Judge.
Judge and Mrs. Noonan, of ST. Louis, are
spending the day in this city. They arrived
here last evening and will leave for st. Louis
this evening. During Judge Noonan's alb
sence the bench of Criminal court, over which
he presides, is occupied by ex-Judge Laughlin,
who gained considerable notoriety two years
ago by ruling that man is justified i'm seeking
and killing one who has threatened and he be-
lieves is determined to kill him.
Judge Noonan, though but 30 years or SO of
age, has already attained emnence in his pro-
fession and his opinions have a weight of
which many older jurists might be proud.
Prior to his election to the bench he served two
terms as Assistant Circuit Attorney, an impor-
tant position, in St Louis. Every time he has
been candidate for Office he has been elected
while here, visited several friends, among
Others Jay Minter and Judge Noonan, of the
BeNar County District court. Both Mr.. NoOnan
aud his wife were surprised by the evidence
they witnessed OF the rapid growth of the city.
