THE RATES ON COAL.
A Meeting to be Held in Milwaukee to
Discuss Goa Rates to Northwest
ern Points.

Wisconsin Central to Get Into

A meeting of the lines interested in Iowa,
Minnesota and Dakota business will be held
in the Plankigton house, Milwaukee,
Tuesday, July IA, to consider and decide on
coal rates to points in the territory named.
1t is altogether possible that this will be
very interesting meeting, as an attempt
will be made to make rate that will COM
pete with the rate that is charged by the
water routes to Duluth. and the Manitoba
and Northern Pacific roads to Fargo and
Moorhead. and the st. Paul & Duluth road
to st. Paul and Minneapolis. kilograms
received In st. Paul yesterday by the various
general freight agents stated that full at
tendance was desired. The point at issue in
tereSts the Milwaukee d st. Paul company
most deeply, as it has its own line TO Fargo
and MOOrhead. AS heretofore stated in the
GLOBE, that company makes rate of $3.50
| from Chicago TO Fargo against a rate of
$3.50 by the Northern Pacific and Manitoba
companies, and it is seeking to have the
latter companies advance their rates to an
equal basis. This the Northern Pacific and
Manitoba roads will not do, as the distance
from Duluth to Fargo is only 253 miles, and
higher rate than they now charge would
be an injustice to the public. The distance
from Chicago to Fargo by the Milwaukee IL
st. Paul is about 709 miles. The coal trade
is not included in the business Of the
Northwestern Traffic association, and a
reduction in rates to interior points
from Chicago and Milwaukee might come
in order that the lines in that association
! might get part of the coal trade to Mime
sofa and Dakota points.

VICE PRESIDENT HESDRIcKs told wash
ington interviewer the other day that he
would not be a candidate for the presidential
nomination on the Democratic ticket in lsSS.
But the vice president allowed his eyelids to
droop when he said it and he spoke so slowly
and gently that il suggested the coquetish-
ness of the fair DONNA JULIA, who, swearing
that she would not consent, consented MIR.
HENDRICKS also referred to the fact that
when he made his speech before the Bay
State club at Boston, he was astonished at
the enthusiasm that met his remark, II do
not apologize for my Democracy" He says
the applause was spontaneous and over
whelming, and he construed the demonstra-
ton to mean that the country wanted a
change and wanted IL bad.

Minus the OFFICIAL stamp.

Some spirited kicking was done by a
scalper, who wears diamonds, last night,
when he found out that he had done him
self up to almost the extent of his Doodle.
1t appears that on account of the eheapness
of the excursion rates to the visiting Odd
Fellows, the railroad companies were par
ticularly anxious, especially the Omaha, as
it brought in the majority of the business,
that none of these tickets should fall into
the hands of scalpeTs to be made immoral
use of, and the latter railroad requested all
the visitors to hold their tickets for identif-
cation, and at the same time protect the
railway cOmpany's interests. The COM
pany understood, of course, that some
tickets would be offered for sale, and on
Tuesday night instructed the scalpers that
they would not stamp any tickets they
bought. and that unless the stamp was on
they were no good. The company, how
ever. forgot to call on one scalper, and he
was up bright and early yesterday morning,
with his wallet well lined, ready to buy in
all the tickets that were presented. The
first that came was q ticket to Rochester,
Y. V, and he bought it for SIC. AS the
round trip rate on this ticket was less than
the single rate the scalper would have done
well by it, providing the official stamp of
the company appeared on the back. But 1t
didn't, nor on perhaps half hundred more
he bought, to different places. The scalper
has pile of dead stock on his hands, and
would sell out quite reasonably.

RACES. In no particular is there a sign of

one maiden who relapsed briefly
into Americanism, and it was positively

ENGLAND's SCANDAL.

1t has been a long time since the usually
quiet and conservative citizens of London
have been tossed on such tempeStuous sea
of excitement as now prevails in conse-
quence of the recent publications made by
the Pail Mall Gazette relating to the vices
of aristocratic society in England's capital.
The fact that the proprietors of the Gazette
are compelled to call upon the authorities
for protection against surging crowds sur
rounding their publication Office, seeking
copies of the paper. gives an idea of the in
tense excitement which prevails. The de-
faint tone of the Gazette yesterday respect
ing the threatened prosecution by the gov
eminent is assurance that a strong public
sentiment backs the paper, and it will
be bad day for the government when
it decides to prosecute the Gazette for
performing the most valuable service
ever rendered English society. OF course
it is splendid advertisement for the Ga
zette and will put money in its Golfers.
Still that does not detract from the value
of the service it has rendered the public by
exposing the infamous condition of morals
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1885-07-10

among the nobility. The fact that the heir
apparent is involved in the great scandal
does not change the situation. If the future
king of England is base libertine, and has
been prominent in schemes TO destroy the
virtue of young women, subjects of his fu-
ture realm. whom his manhood should have
prompted him to protect rather than ruin,
the fact ought to be exposed, SO that when
he does ascend the throne of great nation
the world may know him in his true char
acter. Whatever course the government
may pursue, all true men who uphold good
morals and who prize virtue as the jewel of
a woman's soul, will applaud the Pail Mall
Gazette.

ALndY Criminal.

Mrs. Mary Kelley, alias Ella Hobart, was
taken to Saltwater yesterday by Clerk Dana
of the sheriff's office to serve her sentence
for larceny. The lightness of the sentence
imposed upon the woman is commented
upon quite freely. There were two indict-
ments found against her, for each of which
the statutes place the heaviest penalty at
three years and the lightest at six months
She was sentenced to one year on the first
indictment, and when County Attorney
Eagan moved for sentence upon the second,
the court said it would suspend sentence on
the second count. 1t has been suggested
that had the case been tried before Judge
Brill the woman would have received a SEN
tence commensurate with her deserts. She

her a misplaced sympathy. Mrs. Kelley

IT said that Mr.. CRAWFORD is annoyed be-
cause the public does not recognize Zoroaster
as tho finest of his novels. Authors are pro-
verbally incompetent TO pronounce judg-
ment on the relative merits of their own
works. MILTON, for instance, preferred Par
adise Regained TO Paradise Lost, BYRON re-
garded his now-little-read Horatian Imita-
lions as his ablest production, while ADDISON
rated his Cato far above those inimitable es-
says which have given him so high place
among the worthless of English literature.
Similar instances might be multiplied indefi-
nitely. Mr.. CRAWFORD can, therefore, con-
sole himself with the reflection that he is in
an illustrious company, and continue to
choose rather to err with PLATO than with all
the world be right.

thing is working harmOniously.
A movement is on foot not to elect a new

THEMANN1NG ORDER REsCINDED


When a sensible man who is honest dis

ing by this standard it must be conceded
that Secretary MANNING is both honest

Objectionable shipping order, making Amer
lean merchandise passing through Canadian
territory dutiable the same as Canadian

manded the order, as the GLOBES Wash

Gated he would do. If the order had been
left in force most serious inconvenience
would have resulted to all our Northwest
ern traffic and positive injury would have
resulted to many important transportation
lines. The matter is now left where it was
previous to the issue of the order and there
will be no further interruption to shippers.
