The Erie Charges that the Pennsylvania Has
Been Cutting Livestock Rates.
Up to late hour last night Commissioner
Doherty, of the Indianapolis east bound freight
pool, had received no notice from Commissioners
Fink to reduce livestock rates, neither is the
order general to reduce livestock rates
out of Chicago. Should it become so,
doubtless the rates from Indianapolis viii
be reduced to the usual proportion of
the Chicago rates The Erie people seem to
have been the first to move in the matter. The
Chicago Inter Ocean of yesterday says: 'IThe
Erie road has maintained for some time past
that the Pennsylvania road was not strictly
maintaining rates on cattle and dressed beef. 1t
preferred formal charge and placed the same
before Commissioner Fink and yesterday let
ter was received here from that gentleman, stat
ing that he had considered the matter carefully,
and thought that the point was well taken. He
added that the Erie road would for the present
quote the lowest rates that it claims are made
by its competitors, namely: Chicago to New
York, cattle reduced from 80 cents to 20 cents,
and dressed beef from 48 cents to 80 eeutss The
rates to Philadelphia are: Cattle, 18 cents;
dressed beef, 80 cents; to Baltimore, cattle, II
cents; dressed beef, 90 cents This is reduction
of 80 per cent. from the tariff in force on March
81. This reduction must not be construed as an
authorized one by the commissioner; he merely
allows the Erie road to quote the rates until
the master can be more fully investigated
These rates will not be quoted in Official tariffs
at least not for the present

Life of a Steel Rail.

There is little meaning to be attached
to the expression, "fhe average life OF a
rail, because So much depends upon the
amount Of use to which it is sujected.
Some of the light rails first laid by MIR.
Vanderbilt on the New York Central
are still In use, and Others were taken
up after fourteen years constant use on
parts of the road where the wear was
very great. Railroad men state, how.
ever, that the rails to be obtained now
are rot as good AS they We're when first
Introduced. Superintendent Toucey, of
the New York Central, thinks the aver.
age life of a steel rail may be placed at
fifteen years; Others say it is not more

A novel sight was with, ssed at the
Union Depot few days ago. There ar
rived on An early morning Chicago train
consisting of husband, wife and fifteen
children. When they allighted from the
cars the man and woman each carried in
their arms an infant, and were followed
into the depot by he remainder of the
numerous family. The thirteen children
were all joined together by sn,al.sized
rope, which was fastened around the arm
of each child. They were tied together
in Denmark and in this manner the long
journey wJs made. The strangers re-
NAMED at the depot until afternoon,
when they departed for Minnesota, where
