Reading Can't Redeem Her Bonds.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. %. The receivers of
the Philadelphia 6 Reading railroad to-day an
nounced that, as there is no money on hand
applicable to the payment of interest
on the consolidated bonds due on
Dec. l, the same will not be paid.
The receivers further stated that they
expected the plan of reorganization to be pub
lished soon and the interest would then be pro-
vided for. The offer of the Drexels to pay it
could not be accepted. because the receivers
were unwilling to bind themselves to
repay the Drexels at any speci-
fed time. About 100000 is still
due on account of the sum advanced for pay
ment of this interest last June. Hereafter,
when funds are not on hand to pay the rental of
a leased line, though it has been earned. the re-
cevers will give the leased line a certificate of
Indebtedness, payable when funds are available,

A Hitch In the Arrangements.

CHICAGO, Nov 23-There is a hitch in the
movement to advance grain and provision rates
from Chicago to New York FIVE cents hundred,
on Dec. l, and it is by no means certain that the
recommendations of the Central Traffic Assoca
ton will be carried out The statement is made
that no immediate action will be taken by the
trunk lines, many Of their representatives ex
pressing doubt of the advisabiity of an advance
for the present It is objected to on account of
the low price of wheat and the fact that the
present twenty -fvecent rate has not been
strictly maintained by all of the roads. 1t is
feared that HIGHER tariff rates might lead to r-
regularties, and that the movement of grain
might be impeded

The St. Johns herald., 1886-08-26

4 SPECIAL from Fl Paso dated the 2lstlnstant says it has just been learned that yesterday the second chamber of the supreme tribunal of this State took up the case of A. k. Cutting, and after fully re- viewing the entire written evidence argument was begun. This did not last long, for the attorneys pro ann had previously come to an agree ment that the two months impris- onment already suffered by Cut ting should be complete purga- ton of his crimes. This makes it certain beyond a doubt that the sentence which follows shortly will conform to this agreement among the attorneys. The case was heard within closed doors. The court holds that both Judge Castaneda and Judge Zubia did exactly right in trying and sentencing Cutting, but under the circumstances the courts think that he has now by two months of confinement suffered enough, and they will order his re- lease to take effect probably by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. The six hundred dollars fine is also to be remitted, but the court expressly Te-affirms all that has been said in favor of the right of Mexico to try offenscs committed in the United States, therefore the status of the case is an interna- tional question is not and will not be in the least altered by the re- lease of Cutting. It will come up again directly on the question of indemnity. Consul Brigham says that he does not sec how the re- lease of Cutting at this stage would change anything but the personal comfort of NIT. Cutting. It was not so much a question of the personal liberty of Mir. Cutting as a broad principle at stake between two gov crnments, and as he understood that the court had expressly af- firmed the validity of the law which Secretary Bayard had rightly said that the United States could never permit to be enforced, t was likely

servatiye, just and truthful it will attract and finally win the com mendation of all good citizens, ir- respective of clique, elan or party, and even those whom 1t most se- verely checks will learn to respect it, when they discover it's criticisms are honest, truthful, just and free from malice.
 An individual has the right to ask of another reparation for a wrong, or the explanation of real or supposed grievance, to how much greater extent then does this privi- lege extend to the people,who are the sovereignty. to demand of officials how they have used the talent which has been committed to them. The people are supposed to speak and find answer through the press
 Second, Vindictive, personal war fare through the press, sets a bad example and foments strife through out an entire community, and makes of this boasted molder of of opinion, this civilizing evangel of morality the most interruptions factor of evil and wickedness.
 For these reasons, among others, we shall endeavor only to speak of public matters and officials in res pect to the relation and responsi- bility they bear the people.
 The HERALD will be published in the interest, and as far as we know how, the best interest of the entire community. We shall consistently call attention to every wrong we believe to exist, and at the same countenance no libellous attack upon the humblest citizen of the county, Of the people, for the people and at all times with the people.

business so long as there is any thing to enquire about.
 Such enquiries can only make mischief for those who have a req son for not accounting, and every citizen has a right to be busy body in all matters of public con- cern. It is the privilege of every American citizen to ask and know how the agents and officials of the people are discharging their duties, and no conscientious, honest officer will ever object to making his acts and conduct public. More partic- ularly is this the highest trust and duty of public journals, upon which the people must, to greater or less extent, rely for information in the various matters of which their off, cers are made the trustees. Any other view of such duties and re- responsibilities are subversive of the very highest principles upon which all government is based, and would lead to condition of affairs which imposed no check upon corruption and would eventually bring us to anarchy and ruin. The so-called official letter of transmittal is some thing without a precedent in its line. and as an official document manifests so much of disrespect for the Executive, that its tenor can only be excused upon presumption of the ignorance of the writer.
 The uncalled for personalities We shall pass with the merited con tempt they deserve, we'll knowing the good citizens ot the county will find their best answer in the charac- ter of the writer. The showing in the account is as the Critic re- marks, the cleanest of them all- the Commissioners were not only just, but they were even generous, advancing the county $11.75 of their own hard earnings. This bal ance sheet reminds us of q w&goner who in stopping his team called "whoa," in so loud a voice, that the team not only stopped, but went backward. We would like to know if the Secretary will forward the plans and specifications with their report, SO that they may also show the building was constructed accor- ding to contract.
