REDUCTION IN FREIGHT RATES.

CHICAGO, March 4.-The Times, this
morning, says: Chicago merchants are
anxiously awaiting the outcome of the
proposed reduction in freight rates to the
Pacific Coast, which was announced in
the Times nearly week ago. 1t has
already been stated that the Central Pa
cifc people have not concurred in the
resolution to reduce rates, which was
adopted by other lines in the Trans-con-
tinental Association, and which have been
agreed to by the lines between Chicago
and the Missouri River The very APP
parent reason for the Central Pacifc's
action is that a reduction from this city
would give to Chicago merchants share
of the California trade, which is now
practically monopolized by New York
jobbers.
The Sunset route Central Pacific, via
New Orleans) has persistently refused to
pool its business with the trunk lines, nor
will it be party to any kind of agree
ment to maintain rates. By cutting the
tariffon California freight, which it can do
proftably on account of its steamer line
from New York to Orleans, it has been
enabled to secure a large proportion CT the
through traffic between New York and
San Francisco. The all rail lines have
endured this condition of things as long
as they will, and it can be accepted as
settled that a resolution to reduce rates
from Chicago to San Francisco will be
carried into effect within few days.
A prominent ttrans-condnental manager
was asked yesterday what effect the Cen
tral Pacifcs action would have. 'It is
safe to assume" said he, 'that it will
not thwart the proposed reduction in rates
from Chicago to the Pacific. We shall
mt the rates into effect as soon as neces-
sarv. The preliminary arrangements are
nerfected and we will soon see what the
Central Pacific will do. If the Hunting
ton system persists in refusing to concur,
harmony will cease to exist in the Trans
continental Association and the pool will
have 10 be dissolved. I am inclined to
tbink however, that Huntington will re-
rord theinterests ofhis Central Pacific as
equally important with his sunset route,
ond will not ieopardize the welfare of the
former in order to build up the latter.

At noon to-day 125 tickets had been
sold for the Democratic excursion to
Ogden this evening, and it is expected
the delegation will I'll two cars. Upon
arriving at Ogden a procession will be
formed, headed by the Sixteenth Ward
band, and viii march to the Junction

Ogden is said to be ablaze with excite
ment over the meeting, and the Union
Opera House will be entirely too small
to hold those who will desire to hear the
speeches.

CHICAGO, March 4.-10.30 a.m.-The
drop in the price of London consols, ac-
companied by premonitary rumblings OF
an impending war between England and
Russia, gave strong impulse to the
wheat market this morning, and values
advanced to IL cents within the first
ten minutes of trading, May wheat,
which closed last night at 7915, rose to
S1M, but has since fallen back to S034
Other markets are stronger in sympathy,
and at this hour everything on the specu-
lative list is firm and higher.

The Spring Trade,

Hon. VIM. JENNINGS expressed to one
of the editors of this paper, yesterday, his
opinion as to the business outlook. We
cannot quote his exact language, nor was
the ex-Mayor talking with view to the
publication of his sentiments; but as few
men ever express themselves more delib-
erately, or as the result Of closer observa-
ton, his judgment has peculiar value
just now
Substantially Mr.. JENNINGS said there
is now no cause for alarm in looking at
the business future of Utah. Confidence
among capitalists and leading merchants
has been largely restored, and the pre-
parations for the spring trade are based
upon the expectation Of fair average
seasons business. This confidence is
shown by a larger investment of capital
in business enterprises; in increasing the
manufacturing product; in rebuilding,
enlarging or erecting new business blocks;
in the amount Of goods purchased by
wholesale traders; in the increase Of
banking facilities, and in the many plans
now under consideration for making Salt
Lake metropolitan city in fact as well as
in name.
MIR. Jennings was also understood to
say that he did not think the polygamy
trials would affect the business Of the city
in any perceptible degree. The polygamy
prosecutions affect a few individuals who
fully realized all the risks they assumed,
and whose cases will be treated as tests
of the constitutionality and efficiency Of
the law. 1t cannot be expected that the
business Of the world will stop because a
very important political Or religious issue
is being tried in the courts.
1t is possible that the aggregate pro
duction OF our mines will be less this year
than last, but this is by no means certain.
While there will be a serious falling off in
the ore shipments at Frisco, the increase
at other points, and the opening Of new
mines, may fully offset this loss.
The products OF the farms will doubt
less be more carefully gauged by the local
needs. Since we cannot proftably export
Utah wheat, less of it will be raised, and
the product OF the dairy increased. Good
fortune awaits the man who shall intro
.duce first-class creamenes into Utah.
Our cattle interests are in a fiourishing
condition, and are likely to largely in
crease the revenues OF the Territory
Comparing our own Territory with those
to the north, northeast and northwest, we
are most signally favored. The herds
and focks of Wyoming, Montana, Idaho
and Oregon have suffered enormously,
while those of Utah have prospered. Our
live stock are in healthy condition-free
from the diseases of warmer climes, and
without the exhaustion OF northern cold.
This journal is Of the opinion that busi-
ness will also be facilitated this year by
better understanding among our own
citizens. There will be oalmer discussion
and a iessening of prejudice: the lines of
controversy are beginning to fade; we
shall try to live and let live; and with
hearty cooperation for the general good
we shall have what is far better than a
business "boom"-. an era of steady,
reasonable and hopeful progress.

citizens, were met by more than q halt hun
dred Of their friends and relatives at the
