FREIGHT RATES.
EvndIng an Agreement by CrOwding

EvndtnE an Agreement by CrOWdtng
in Livestock.
ST.. LOUIS, May 28.-An old way of
evading letter of agreement to maintain
tariff, It is alleged, has been successfully
put in practice in billing livestock from
East st. Louis to Atlantic coast ports. It
is said the Chicago a. Alton took
large shipments of cattle in "a foot
cars billed at 10000 pounds
while, in fact shippers were allowed to
put into each car all they were willing to
risk, which would ordinarily amount to
about 5000 and sometimes 5000 pounds
overweight and which is equivalent to a
very deep cut in the agreed tariff. The
Wabash is also charged with employing
the same tactics in round lot of hogs.
The cause of it all, it is alleged, is the
determination of the Vandalia to open q
livestock route between st. Louis and
Chicago via its own line and the Illinois
Central, which the Wabash and Chicago
& Alton claim it has no right to do. II is
thought that the fight will be extended to
east bound dead freight and possibly in
volve all the lines in the central traffic
association. s.5..

TobogganIng.

To the Editor Of the Press:
/ enclose a cutting from the Montreal
''Star" that may have escaped your scissors.
Now that ''close time is coming f,r trout,
deer, partridge and other game I'll, open
season" for 'Tobogganing" is iustcommenc-
ing (for the first time) here.
Good luck to the sport. it will increase the
size of lungs an1:imbs and health Of most
who participate in the sport, but let me give
a word Of warning. viz; 1t will break the
heads and limbs and lungs Of some unless
great care Is exercised by both managers and
patrons Of the new side.
| do not wish to "throw cold water" on the
slide even on ''cold day." but would wish
to caution all, Of the danger-greater here
than in Canada, where the people have been
brought up to it, from childheold and are
all more or less skilled in the management
of tobbogsan, so that accidents are com
parativey rare among them, but they do oc-
cur there, and IL Is in the hope that unfortu-
nate accidents may not put damper upon
this new sport that write this caution.
/ hope that another wiuter will see a
'Snow Shoe Club" started in Portland and
prophesy that II started twill prove popular
and add 20 the success Of the t0b0ggan.
We cannot do wiser thing for the health
and strength OF our youths tnan 10 import
those two Canadian out door winter sports
and exercise, and although at first 1t may
give our surgeons q few extra cases Of "Sim-
pie fracture" IL will finally save the commu-
nifty many thousands of dollars in physi-
clans and druggists bills, and develop a
healthier physique of body and brain in our
rising generation than all the base ball clubs
and skating rinks can approach. and without
the many Objectionable features Of the two
last named amusements.
But repeat the warning, be careful Of the
toboggan until you learn show TO drive
him." He is skittish beast and although
he never "balks" he often takes the bit In
his teeth and jumps over the traces.
| am not interested in ''the slide" and dc
not know the owner, but am interested In the
sport and glad to see 1t established here.
Yours, "RADNoR."
The clipping referred to is poetic In form
and describes the misfortunes Of the ''un
slIillful tobogganer." We have room fol
only the moral as follows;
| Young fellows give ear: ere you go TO the slide
With your girl learn to steer for a duner
| No lady can care for, aud If you can't guide
Your tObOggan you'll certainly suffer.

sleigh while the third held the horses. One
of the men carried heavy stick Of wood
with which he smashed tie large plate glass
show window in which were trays Of dia-
monds, watches and jewelry, and secured all
that he could grab and throw into the sleigh
while his accomplices kept the crowds Of
people that swarmed around the doors. at
bay with cooked revolvers. Before anything
could be done to apprehend them the man
had jumped into the sleigh and drove % m
street. the driver wildly lashing the horses
and the robbers standing with revolyers
pointed at the crowd.
They secured between $1,000 and $1,000
worth of diamonds and watches. Their
boldness and daring excel the James
Brothers exploits. The streets were m.
usually crowded and scores of people were
looking at the display in Elliot's windows at
the time of the robbery. Several policemen
were within half a block of the scene. INF
could not get there in time to apprehend the
thieves.
