charge was made that the G., H. q d. was evad
ing the pool those made for the above reason.
He (Mr. McLeod) really had nothing to say as
to where the grain should be delivered after
shipped from Hamilton except to name the rate.
But he positively denied that there was the least
intention of evading the Indianapolis eastbound
pool Mr.. Mcleod talked very coolly about the
matter, and seemed honestin his statement Attic
conclusion of his remarks Mr. Doherty asked for
the views Of other railroad officials present, and
the prevailing sentiment was that Mr.. McLeod's
explanation was satisfactory, and, by unani
nous vote, it was SO recorded on the minutes of
the meeting. Following this, other matters
were discussed which it would not be wise to
make mention Of

The CLOSER s. Go. Rebate Suit.

q. a. Poppleton. of Cleveland, general solicitor
OF the Cleveland, Columbus. Cincinnati & Indi-
annapolis road, spent greater part of yesterday
in.examining into the suit brought by Closer &
Go. against the Decline, to recover rebates
claimed, and in. fixing upon a line of de-
tense, Mr.. Poppleton seems sanguine
that Closer g. Co. have no case against
the company. At best the contract was
. verbal one, and the testimony of Albert S.
White general agent and of Edgar Hill assist
ant general freight agent, offsets that of j. A.
Closer. The two gentlemen first named state
that Mr.. Closer did not ship the property on
which he claims rebates to the parties which,
under the. agreement rebates were promised,
and that due notice was given him that the
Bee line people would not allow him rebate on
such shipments, a large per cent. of which were
forwarded to Philadelphia parties. Mr.. Popple-
ton expresses the opinion that Closer e Co.
have no moral or legal claim for the rebates sued
for.

the words she thought they said.
Tn made the little maiden feel so very. very
cross
That She gave her little mouth twist her
little head toss
For she thought the very hymn they sang was
all about her bonnet
With the ribbo and the feather aud the bit of
lace upon it,
And she would not wait to listen to the sermon
or the prayer,
But battered down the silent street and hurried
down the stair
Till she reached her little bureau aud In a

Had hidden safe from critics eye, her foolish

DIR. CARROLL 10 rather unfair when
he says Governor Coke stumped this
county for the new constitution which
contained the germ of local option.
At the time that constitution was be.
fore the people for ratification, local
option was not an issue. Indeed this
matter was but small spec in the af-
fair. Coke saw and recognized the
many excellent features of that instru-
ment, and supported it because it had
far more Of good than evil in it. This,
we approhend, was about the case
with Ross, as member of the consti-
tional convention. We would be glad
to see the reverend orator do Senator
Coke and General Ross justice, aud
correct the matter.
