AT the recent meeting of the local agents of
the several roads centering here, which was
called by Commissioner Doherty, several i'm
portant resolutions were passed. One was to
the effect that after Dec. 81, 1886, the issue of
free passes to grain buyers should be dlscontn-
ued. Another resolution which was unanimous
ly adopted was that. commencing with Jan. /,
1887, weighing should be done on outbound plat
form freight under the direction of the inspector
of weights, and that he be allowed two men, to
be paid by the association, to assist him. The
elevators came in for turning over. j. B.
Eckman stated that he had requested and had
been refused certificates of the wei yhts
of certain of freight east
bound out of certain Indianapolis elevators
and he desired % know whether he was not the
authorized agent of all the lines ont of Indian
apolis. and whether he had not authority to de-
mand certificates of the weights of cars which
he might have reason to suspect were under
billed. After free discussion of the matter
the following resolution was passed:
Resolved, That E. J. Eokman, inspector of weights
is the recognized agent of all the railroad companies
doing business in and out of indianapolis in this
ISOLATION, in of Weights that the secretary be
instructed to notify all elevators of the fact and that
the books of those companies be opened to Kim any
time he requests it for weights.

Philad elphia Press.
The refusal of Judge Given, of the Circuit
Court of Iowa, to grant an injunction against
liquor distillery at Des Moines will not encour-
age the friends of prohibition in that State or
elsewhere, When the prohibitory law of Iowa
was framed it recognized the right of distileries
to manufacture alcohols, which were TO be sold
beyond the borders of the State for commercial
and scientific purposes, but which were not
to be used as beverages But, ac-
cording to Judge Given's decision, dis
tilleries manufacture liquors in
Iowa. to be sold in other States, limited only by
the laws in the States where they are sold.
While this is probably the only sensible inter
probation which can be given to the law, it places
the temperance advocates in the anomalous posi-
