the farmers in Berkeley county, and per-
haps in jefferson also, have been buying
"Russian apple trees" from tree peddlcrs,
paying for them $40 per dozen. The fol-
lowing from the New York Sun shows
how they were cheated:
c. Z. TimJerloke.-Wc do not know the
nursery firm you name, but do know that
any tree peddlcr who asks $40 dozen for
"RusSiar apple" is fraud, and had bet
ter be advised to pass on where he can find
victims. You can get good trees of any
ana all kinds of the Russian apples that
have been tested and known to be valua-
bic at twenty-five cents each at retail or
less by the hundred. These are the prices
charged by trst-class nurseryncn, and
our advice is to trade with no other. Let
all tree peddlcrs severely alone, no matter
from where they come.

The Successor Of the Tr1partfte Pool.

CHICAGO, Sept 15.-The general committee
of railway managers. composed of MessrI
Hnghitt. Potter, KimbalL, Robinson, McMnIIen
and Gable, to which was referred the problem
by which the differences now existing between
the Western lines could be adjusted, held an all
day session to-day The solution Of the present
difficulty was supposed TO rest on the dissolution
or continuance Of the tripartite pool, ont Of the
organization Of which the present condition Of
affairs is supposed to have sprung. One Of the
preFogatives of the tripartite agreement Is that
roads east Of the Missouri river shall make all
through rates to Colorado and California
points When asked to join IN the
formation of the trans Missouri pool,
the Atchiaon, Topeka & Santa Fo declined to do
so so long as the power given to roads in it east
Of the Missouri river was allowed to continue.
At to-day's session = continuance of the tripar-
lite pool was not discussed A plan was pro-
posed, however, which was adopted unani-
mously, and which will be reported to gen
eral meeting tomorrow. The plan is in the
rough and was mot even placed In the form Of a
resolution. 1t proposes tho formation Of -four
pools on California and Colorado business, two
east and two west Of the Missouri river, the
former to include all Omaha and Southwestern
lines, and the latter to include the Burlington,
the Santa Fe and the Union Pacific roads Il is
provided that there shall be four commissioner
ships, and that CO Inference committee consist
ing Of all four pools, shall be APP
pointed to arbitrate any difieu1ty affecting
the rVads both east and west Of the Missouri
river. A resolution to clothe this committee with
power was defeated, and the committee is to
serve in only an advisory capacity. Al PROPOSE
tion By the Union Pacific and the Rock island,
to recognize the tripartite pool was opposed BY
the Burlington the Northwestern and the Santa
re, and the natter was dropped without action
As to the probability of adoption of the plan
outlined at the general meeting, tomorrow,
there is considerable doubt, owing to failure TO
take any definite action as to continuance Of the
tripartite pool. Prominent officials Of the roads
declared that until the matter had been finally
decided, and The tripNrtte pool dissolved, Che
formation Of new pools was purely coniecturaI
IL is expected that some decision on this question
will be necessarily reached tomorrow.
