Uniform Rates to GoUef,a Terminal Charges
in Chicago at Last agreed Upon.
fChicago Tribune, 80

After several conferences with the grain
dealers and shippers in this city the general
freight agents of the Western roads have
agreed upon the following rules to govern
charges on grain received at Chicago, the
rules to go into effect March "a: Grain in
bulk consigned to Chicago, local, will be i'm
mediately unloaded in elevators, after arrival
and inspection, unless way-billed for g track
delivery'' or,held out by consignees; grain
held out and afterwards ordered
to connecting lines or private tracks
will be subject to charge of 50
per car for switching; grain billed to elevator
and subsequently ordered to team track will
be subject to switching charge of 50 per
car; grain billed for track delivery and
afterward ordered to private tracks or to con-
Meeting lines will be subject to 50 per car for
switching; no charge for switching will be
made on grain billed track, and which is Or
dered to elevator on day of arrival, Gt being
understood that twenty -four hours constitute
day, except that grain arriving before 9 a.
m. must be ordered out before p. m. of
same day; but such grain will be chargable
with demurrage if delayed on track by con-
signee beyond the time above specified for
purposes other than inspection by committee

local, that may be actually inspected by com

RAILWAY POOLS.
The Eastern Pool in Bad Way, With no
Hope of Restoration.
How Perfect Pool Can be Made That
Will be Maintained by all Par
ties to It.
Especial Telegram to the Globe

CHICAGO, March 2tThe eastern pool
situation does not improve. very few of
the lines to-day made some pretense toward
maintaining the 15c rate but the majority
were taking grain at 1917 cents to
the seaboard, while all the agents stoutiy
maintained they were abiding by tariff rates.
1t is positively known that considerable
volume of business was taken at cut
There is little faith in the immediate future
entertained by either shippers or railway Off
cials and that the Generalization can be
checked is considered more than
doubtful. ''Two important factors
in the general plan of the pool
must be acted upon,'' was remarked by
well informed official, in order to insure its
uccessful operation. These have been fire.
quently recognized, but have not been acted
upon to any great extent. The present pools
cover but comparatively small percentage
of the entire traffic from the
west to the railroad. If pools
are essential to the maintenance of tariffs, it
is evident that all competitive business should
be included in the same pool, and this can
be done only by the formation of pools from
all western competing points, and should be
made from the initial point to destina-
ton, or at least to western
termini of the trunk lines. Under the pres
ent plan of forming the pools, as only be-
tween the initial roads, the interests of the
intermediate roads, are not fully protected
and they have about as great an incentive to
secure business by illegitimate means
as if no pools were in
existence. In this manner every road would
receive such complete protection that it
would have no object in evading any Of its
agreements and it would desire to get as high
rate as possible on the traffic moved. Every
road would receive its proportion of the traffic
between all points to and from which it
could be considered part of legitimate
route. In connection with these pools some
agreement would be necessary in relation to
the business of north and south roads, 9th
erwise the roads could sell their business to
the highest bidder. This could be ar
ranged by allowing them certain
divisions based upon the varions lengths of
haul to the junction points with the connect
ions. There is no question the present i'm
perfect system is impracticable. That has
been repeatedly proven, and more or less
decentralization cannot be avoided until the
weak places in the pool structure are strength

LET US HAVE PEACE.


The foolish and silly chattering about the
Lasker resolutions it is to be hoped has at
last reached an end. That Tom Ochiltree, in
introducing into the House his gushing resolu-
tons was not wise, is generally admitted,
while Bismarck was not only unwise, but
boorish in getting mad and sauey about the
resolutions is just as freely admitted.
The unlucky resolutions were
sent to Berlin, and were sent back again,
from the hasty, the irate chancellor, and were
referred to the Foreign Affairs commit
tee of the House. That committee, through
its chairman, Mr.. Curtin, has reported two
resolutions which declared the good and
kindly intentions of the House
in transmitting the original
resolutions to the German Reichstag, and
formally expressed its inability to take cog
nizance of the manner in which they have
been rejected. There was a general incli-
nation to make the best of the matter and to
ignore whatever boorishness and ill-temper
had been developed. The resolutions were
adopted. The House did well to wash its
hands of the whole matter by refusing to fol-
low the ill-bred Chancellor in his littleness,
in a matter of no real public concern and
consequence. The House has probably
learned a lesson, and will take up its feet
more carefully when it attempts to be polite
and civil to an ill-natured, touchy foreign
official, whose refinement of feelings and
manners are not in accordance with his high
official position.

Democratic Opinion.

BosToN, March 24.-The Post tomorrow
will print several columns of letters from
Democratic members of the legislatures of
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut, in which the writ
ers give their preferences for the presidential
candidates. Tilden leads each state, save
Massachusetts, where he and Butler are about
even. The Greenback members of the
Maine legislature favor Tilden for first
choice. On the tariff question majority are
for tariff for revenue only, and an overwhel-
ming majority is in favor of the Morrison bill
and gradual reduction of the tariff taxation
of the members who declare I'M
equivocally for the continuance of the
present tariff, two are New Hampshire
men, three Connecticut and one Massachu-
sets. Two New Hampshire manufacturers
favor an immediate reduction and one favors
the tariff as at present.

AND now after all the buster

AND now after all the buster about the civil
service law it is believed to be unconstitution
al. Treasury department officials, who do no.
want to obey it, denounce it as unconstitu-
tional, and declare that it will not stand the
test of the courts, should it be brought before
them-and it is further alleged that the best
lawyers in the cabinet declared it unconsti-
tutional. No one ever supposed there was
a great lawyer in the cabinet,
whose opinion would carry much
weight. The subtle tricksters,
however, who wish to carry water on both
shoulders and avail themselves of what they
believe to be the surface popularity of that
law, and at the same time evade its iniunc-
tons without party damage decry it as IN
constitutional to bring it at least into at
measure of unpopularity. This legislative
clap-trap, having served a temporary purpose
must now be got rid of by its authors and origi-
majors for partisan effect. Astonishingis the
consistency and reliability of the acrobatic
partisans who now run official party ma
chimes.
