Are Stockholders Carrying on the War;

There seems to be growing belief that stock
jobbers are carrying on the present war in rates
between the important railways of the country.
The New York Commercial Advertiser, in speak
ing Of the meetings held at Commissioners Fink's
efice on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week,
says nothing has occurred in a long time so ut
terly ridiculous reprehensible and not to be en-
dured as the endeavor to establish pacific rela-
lions between the railroads. according to the
oearish view of the matter These trunk line
presidents, coming together to negotiate for a
restoration of rates, ought to be ashamed of
themselves. They will actually be driving

a. C. Barlow, traffic manager of the Mexican
Central Railway Company, calls the attention of
shippers, railways and lines to the necessity of
exercising great in issuing bills of ladug to

some lines to observe the rules of the company
has been the means of subjecting his company
to severe losses. Under the laws Of Mexico a
bill of ladng must be issued for each and every

Twenty years ago, before drawing-room cars
were introduced, an English compartment coach,
elegantly decorated for those days, was built and
run for time on the steamboat train between
Boston and Stonington. But it was never very
popular. Americans do not care for that privacy
which so many Englishmen insist upon and
they decidedly object to being locked up in 8
compartment, either alone or in company with
one or two others who may be strangers. And
SO this palace car of those days was soon taken
off and was forgotten. But all these years it has
been stored away somewhere by the Stonington
railroad, and at last it has been brought out,
taken to Oakland Beach and converted into

Mr.. Gould only stood on the bear side of the
market and engaged all his energies in smashing

Eastern States Can Manage Their Own Roads.

Springfield, Mass, Republican says: 1.-THE
United States Senate committee on regulations
of railroads will find no urgent demand at the
East for national interference with railroads at
the present time Freights are very low, pas
senger rates reasonable, and local grievances
can all be rea ched more readily and satisfactory
ly by State commissions than by national au-
thority. Stockholders would like some legis
lation by Congress to enable them to ''save the
pieces" but do not expect it or SER
iously ask for it. much less deserve
1t. Eastern business men. on the whole prefer
that Congress should let the general railroad
problem alone, or not touch 1t until an impera-
different. The farmers think bushel of corn
worth thirty cents ought to be carried cheaper
than the same bushel when it is worth seventy
five cents. The fact is that the growth of the
West is due to the cheapness of the means OF
reaching market, cheap transportation without
parallel in history. With exceptional cases of
grievance, the railroads are subject to competi-
tive and other memorable forces which are as
much more potent than legislation as the force
of gravity is more potent than the power of the
human arm to project objects into the air.
