There appeared to be strong feeling against
the Republican party, and illusions to its defeat
were received with great applause. Great store
was set upon reports given by speakers of num-
erous converts to prohibition from the Demo

Resolutions were passed, reciing gratitude
for the progress that prohibition is making, and
especially rejoicing over news which comes from
Maine, Kansas, Tennessee, Iowa, Oregon, Mich

cause of prohibition is paramount to individual

THAT SUBTERRANEAN RIVER.

Samuel Love, discoverer and sole proprietor of
the subterranean river, of whose presence be-
meath the city he gives his most positive assur
ance, has taken issue with Professor Collect for
having denied his pet theory, and proceeds to
hold him up to the scorn and commiseration of
the public in the following letter, in the course
of which he brings convincing arguments to bear
upon the subject:

The Old Cry of Determinations.

The paper manufacturers of Philadelphia have
on their war paint. and allege that the Pennsyl-
vania lines are discriminating against them.
They charge that the Pennsylvania road has
carried paper from Holyoke, Mass, to Chicago at
10 cents per 100 pounds and at the same time
charged the Philadelphia manufacturers % cents
for the same class of goods. The company is
carrying paper from Philadelphia to Milwaukee
at 16 cents per 100 pounds while for TIP Same
class of goods shipped to Harrisburg rate of
20 cents is charged, and 80 cents to Scranton.
load of paper shipped by certain house the
other day to Buffalo was carried over the Penn
sylvania road for II cents per 100 pounds while
the same firm was obliged to pay Is cents for a
similar quantity sent to harrisburg showing that
there are tive rates for Harrisburg. One calls
for 20 cents and the other Us cents They say 1t
can readily be seen from these facts how the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company is discrimin
ating against points in the State, and in favor Of
places outside Of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania-
They allege that the Pennsylvania Railroad is
not only carrying the product of the Eastern
manufacturers from Boston to Chicago cheaper
than 1t is carrying the same goods from Phia-
delphia to Chicago but it is carrying at lower
rates from Boston to Detroit, Cleveland, Cincin-
natl, Indianapolis and many other points.

Where the Trouble Began.

Diverting freights probably did more to demon
alize the trunk-line pools than any other one
thing, as it drew the attention Of business men
more directly to the study Of the pooling system,
and through the business men the matter has
been placed before legislatures, asking for re-
lief. While the tonnage of west bound business
diverted, as Commissioners Fnks statistics show,
was comparatively small in many of those cases,
it was annoying to the shipper and expensive as
we'll 1t is very trying for a Western merchant
who orders his goods by fast freight line
which usually brings them through in
four days, the longest time. to have
goods diverted to line which is indirect, and is
ten days in getting the goods though The New
York Dial. in commenting on the bill before the
Legislature of New York. says: "The grievance
against the trunk line pool the part of the
merchants Of this city, so large number of
whom have signed the petition to the Legisla-
ture to pass this BILL is that should never have
been tolerated by them. Had they made test
case and gone to tho courts for relief when this
pool was first formed they might have broken
up the system Of diverting freight by other lines
than those indicated by shippers long ago. AS
this has been neglected till now, this bill for
relief is the quickest method to secure it. But
while they are about it. let the Legislature also
declare pool itself unlawful, we'll as the acts
thereof. Go to the root of the evil. Remove
that, and the branches will cease to grow. Don't
make two jobs of cutting off this dangerous
dogs tail"

The Rate Outlook.

One Of the best posted railroad men in this sec
tien, to the question, Will east bound rates likely
60 lower than at the present time9 answered
that there is not likely to be o cut unless the
Grand Trunk inaugurates the fight, and the rep
ressntatives of the latter assert that they are
not so blind to their interests as to force fight
where they are certain to suffer without the
least prospect of securing compensating ad-
vantages in the future. However. there might
be reduction made by all roads, as in st.
Louis, Peoria Il Chicago there is large amount
of grain and provisions that holders will find it
advantageous to ship, provided they can move 1t
at fair rates. and it would be folly to allow the
property to remain until the lake business opens,
and then attempt to compete with hungry water
carriers who will as usual, work for nearly moth
ing rather than keep their vessels idle.

year were $4,000, 900. and the total expenses

The appointment of receivers for the Pittsburg
Western railroad, yesterday, was a step which
will not occasion any very general surprise or
alarm. The probability that the road would be
forced to take this step has been recognized for
a long time. 1t is announced on good authority
that to the concern had been added some 4, 900
per cent. of water, enough to drown almost any
organization in flush times, let alone such grind

DIR. Lincoln mas several specimens of
Arizona fish which are great curiosities,
and to which he has given the scientific
name of mugwump. Their heads re-
semble q catfish, while they have tails
like an eel, and are supplied with four
legs, giving them somewhat the resemb-
lance of lizard at distance. They
are found in natural tanks throughout
the territory, and as these dry COM
pletely up nature has generously pro-
vided them with legs with which to
navigate dry land in search of another
moist place. While they are unmis-
tskably fish, they come to the surface
of the water to breathe, but otherwise
are perfectly at home in the water. As
they were no doubt evolved in a Pc
riod when the conveniences of our
modern civilization were unknown, il
has been suggested to supply them with
canteens for use in their migration over
the plains in search of water. They are
certainly curiosities.
