Charles S. Brown, who died recently in
Plttsburg, Penn, was millionaire resident
OF that city and at one time took a lively in
terest in the national game. About two
seasons ago he had a semi-prOfessi0nal
team named after himself and furnished his
players with watches, diamonds and expen-
slve clothing in most lavish manner. He
also gave Billy Taylor, now of the Athletics,
a very valuable diamond pin.
A Philadelphia paper has thisto say about
Foster, who pitched for st. Paul last year:
''FOster doesn't get command of the ball
yet. His arm that was brokne seems to be
as strong as ever until he gets to pitching
for all he is worth, when he shows an in
clination to favor it. He tries to pitch with
round-arm motion rather than swapping
the ball. He is good batter and fielder
and very fast runner, but as yet he has
not shown himself pitcher good enough
for the league"
Harry Overlook, who sued Chris Won der
Abe of ST. Louis in 1888 to recover his
salary of S735 for five months when released
before the season was completed, has won
his suit for the second time-the last in the
court of appeals.

Rate war i'm stntu Quo.

1t was rumored yesterday that the rates
quoted from Chicago to st. Paul and Min
neapolis would apply from Minneapolis
and st. Paul to Chicago on Monday. Of
ficials of the different roads, though, denied
the report, saying that the rates on east
bound shipments have been maintained,
and would throughout, unless some other
influence came to bear, which would necessi-
tate a reduction The rates quoted yester-
day on west-bOund shipments were: First
class 80 cents, second-class Is cents, third
class II cents, fourth-class - cents, fifth
class, 10 cents, class A 10 cents, class Il 10
cents, class G 10 cents, class ID 10 cents.
The rates were quoted openly by the Rock
Island. and the other roads met them.

INTERNAL REVENUE TAX.

A very slight increase in the internal
revenue taxes would obviate the necessity
for tariff, as the present collections are
almost sufficient to defray the expenses of
the government. For illustration take the
internal revenue collections for the eight
months of the current year-July, 1884, to
February, 1885, inclusive-have been some
thing over S72, 900, 900 as follows:
From spirits. ............... S44 $50 1927
From toDacco. ..................... 16,6o4,O0o
From fermented liquors. .......... IL ,56601
From miscellaneous sources. 179,203
Total. ...................-.. .SiZ, '4U,lSS
If they should be maintained at this rate
for the remaining four months-March TO
June inclusive-they would be for the yea
S109, 600, 900. This is SO, 600, 900 below the
estimate made by Secretary MCCULLocH
last December. The falling off is chiefly
in the tax on spirits and tobacco. The for
mer shows decrease of SIS, 297, 600 from
the eight months of last year, and the latter
adecrease of nearly $4,000, 900. The tax
on fermented liquors shows an increase of
S137,675. The entire estimated expenses
of the government for the current fiscal
year, excepting pensions, interests and pay
ments of the public debt, are $3.50, 900, 900.
The revenue from the three luxuries of spir-
its, beer and tobacco is nearly sufficient to
defray the net ordinary expenses of the gov
eminent.

Determination.
The Burlington Makes Flat Rates Re-
CARELESS Of Classification and Other
Roads Meekly Follow.
That the TranscontfnentaI Associa,

The War ON Rates.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, April 26.-Never before has
railroad war been prosecuted with such
vigor and determination as the present wars
on Western and Northwestern business.
These were inaugurated only one week ago
and little by little the rates have been re-
duced until now they have reached rock
bottom. 1t is almost impossible to go any
lower unless the roads should feel inclined
to take business for nothing and give a
chrome to boot. AS stated the Rock Island
commenced billing fiat to st. Paul and Min
neapolls at rates which freight was being
contracted for by other lines on the rebate
plan. All the other lines met the open
rate made by the Rock Island, and these
rates were quoted during Friday. Yester-
day it was discovered that the Bur-
lington was making a rate of 10
cents regardless of classification. The
Rock Island followed suit and commenced
fiat at that figure and this was promptly
followed by the other lines except the Mil
waukee q st. Paul, which according to the
latest advices still adheres to rates published
yesterday. There can be no doubt, how
ever, that the latter will also reduce its
tariff to 10 cents, regardless of classified
ton, tomorrow morning. 1t is not likely
that the rates will go still lower The re-
duction in rates by the Burlington to the
above named figures
HAS SPECIAL. SIGNIFICANCE,
as this gives the ST. Louis chance to COM
pete for Northwestern traffic at the same
low rates as are made from Chicago, the
Burlington having the principal line be-
tween st. Louis and St. Paul. The main
object OF the Burlington seems to be to
make the war Odious and compel the roads
to settle their difficulties as speedily as pos
sible. 1t made strenuous efforts to prevent
the decentralization of rates to Council
Bluffs and Omaha, where it has the largest
interest and not succeeding it has now
forced the st. Paul lines into the last ditch,
having the smallest interest in the st. Paul
business.
None of the roads will be able to stand a
conflict of this kind very long. The dam
age already done is immense and will be
felt for some time to come, as shippers are
crOwding forward all the business they can
at the prevailing low rates, and shipments
will therefore be light long after peace has
been restored. 1t is generally understood
that this war is the Outgrowth of tripartite
complications, and these troubles will have
to be adjusted before any steps can be taken
towards settlement of the st. Paul and
Omaha fights. AS far as can be learned
nothing has been accomplished that would
inspire any hope Of settlement of the
tripartite troubles, and fears are entertained
that peace is still far off.
