Retaliation by Manufacturers.

AKRON O., Jan. acknowledgements here are
indignant at the recent agreement Of railroads
to stop issuing shippers passes, and have held a
meeting to consider methods of retaliation. One

controlled in this matter by the Erie. the manu-
facturers expressed determination to provide
means for building the link from here to Chica-
60 junction, to give the Baltimore & Ohio COM
peting facilities with the Erie Another matter
contemplated is the passage of switch law
which will prevent the present exorbitant
charges for transferring freight cars from one
road to another, and which will tend to equalize
freight rates for all manufacturers.

win Hardly Carry Their Point,

Chicago papers are making desperate effort
TO bring about decentralization in rates One
OF the evening papers of Wednesday says
heroic effort is making to maintain freight rates,
but with the Baltimore s. Ohio, Chicago g At
lantic. Pennsylvania, Indianapolis, Bloomington
81 Western, and the big Four shading rates to
the eastward south of here, and divertinc Chica-
90 business into other channels it is scarcely
possible to hope that the decentralization will not
extend into the freight departments OF course
1T is possible that truce may be patched nm
and rates held with show of firmness. but as
shippers, exporters. spectators and railroad
men are holding off in anticipation of a rednc
ton in the tariff, the probabilities point to a
break in the near future. The movement of
freight is reduced to minimum. and every road
Is accusing every other road OF doing funny
business" The grain trade is prepared to start
the wareh oused grain in motion to the seaboard
and to Europe the moment rates are put down
and tho expectancy that the railroads will
be forced to adopt such q course is widespread.
Thousands of men will jump into the crack the
minute it appears
Danger of Going Too Far I'm the Matter,
One unfaYorable feature of the new Western
trunklne pool it is proposed to organize is the
fact that a disposition is shown to ignore the
wishes, so to speak, of the managers of the
trunk-line pool TO be successful. the two pools
must work tremendously. The interests Of the
xoads IN both organizations are of too mutual a
character to admit Of any friction between the

The alarm of fire on Friday of last week
started all the loafers from the front OF
the Shenandoah House, Geary Hotel ana
Bargelts corner on dead run for the
iail stable out of which dense smoke
was rolling. 10 was narrow escape
from what weuld probably have been Il
big fire, as it would have been almost I'M
possible TO have saved either the engine
house or Mr.. Bargelt's dwelling. II appears
that some little girls who were playing IN
a shed they had erected between an out
honse and the stable, were using matches
and set fire to some pieces OF mating
prompt use of water saved the buildings
after part Of tho roof Of the clubhouse
had burned and the boards Of the stable
were scorched and charred. The mo"
over the stable was filled with hay winch
vould have made a very fierce and hot
fire. As the edges Of the openings be-
tween the boards through which the dry
bay could be seen, were charred, showing
how very narrow was the escape. We
can't understand how Woodstock has es-
capped 40 far, as a large majority OF the
small boys carry matches all the time' anu
are constantly smoking

The long drou 9Th of weeks was broken
.by a fine rain on Sunday that was CRATE
fnl alike to human, animal and vegetable
life. IL has rid IA Of the smothering
clouds of dust that for the last few weeks
have made life almost unbearable. The
farmers will doubtless again commence
blowing and narrowing. Owing TO the
exceeding and long continued dryness the
earth had become 30 hard that it was i'm
possible TO draw another furrow, and all
the farmer could do was to sit on the
fence and whistle for rain. The corn Is
drying up rapidly, some little having al
ready been cut up, and in short time all
hands will be busy securing the large
crop Of this valuable grain.

1t is predicted that we will have an
unusually early winter because mlgra-
tory birds are leaving for warmer lati-
tude fully one month earlier than ever
known before. Blackbirds formed them
selves into focks over three weeks ago,
and took their departure for a warmer
cline. Robins that fed their young IN
their nests on the Bird Of August OH the
ath threw them out Of their nests, dead
and left for the South. Wrens fed their
young on the 3rd of August and sang
their songs, and on the 4th made ready to
migrate, and after tho 9Th not bird was
to be seen. 1t appears there is an instinct
given to migratory birds that when cold
weather approaches they know the proper
period to leave their breeding place for
warmer cline.
