NEW YORK, Dec. 17-President Chaun
ceY NJ. Dtpew of the New York Central
road was asked yesterday by a reporter
for his views on the interstate commerce
bill now before congress for action. In
answer to the inquiry for his objections to
the long and short haul clause in the bill
he said: SIT would ruin the extreme west
shipments that must come through at q
rate that will enable them to be moved
and to find a market at the seabOard.
Then It very often happens that there is
competition at certain points which tenn
porarIlY may make the rate on car load
Of freight very low. If intermediate
tariffs were TO be fixed on the same basis
the whole business would have to be done
at loss. Then the road would have to
choose at once whether 1t would take its
local freight at q remuneFstive rate, or
abandon its through business. 1t would
undoubtedly do the latter.

THE dream of the Knights Of Labor,
that the labor organizations of this coun-
try were to be sll consolidated under one
head, and that head to be chosen by the
knights of Labor, is evidently postponed
indefinitely, judging by the result of the
meeting of the Trades Federation which
has but recently adjourned ct Columbus.
o, as they positively refused to enter into
any alliance with the former body, and
resolved that a Knight of Labor card
should not be recognized in labor unions
under Its jurisdiction This has an added
significance when coupled with the fact
that the reports about tie engineers of the
Pennsylvania railroad. joining the Knights
of Labor are declared 10 be false. The
new Trades Federation will maintain a
separate organization, aud the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers will pre-
serve their identity distinct and apart
from the Knights. The Knights are the
strongest of the aggregations OF labor or
CARNATIONS In number, but In financial
standing. cohesivsness and general discip-
line the Engineers Brotherhood are the
first.

"The gallant, although perhaps hope

A young man rooming at Oeding's
was reading last night while lying on
his bed. He soon became aware of
more light than he had arranged for.
Turning his languid gaze to the right,
it took him but short time to realize
that the sheet and mattress were afre.
Being newspaper man and therefore
possessed of great presence of mind,
he rose, seized blanket, and soon
smothered the blaze. A pitcher OF
water judiciously applied soon settled
the mattress. The literary youth then
went to bed and calmly resumed his
reading.
