rhe Rate Determination.

CHICAGO, Aug. 29,-Nothing las been
done by the railroads which 50 stirred up
the Chicago merchants against the action
of the transcontinental lines in adopting
the new schedule of freight rates between
New York and the Pacific coast end Chr
cago and the same points. The rates on
cotton piece goods to day from Chicago to
San Francisco for first, second and third
class goods are: So. 25. $500 and Sl.45.
New York rates on the same articles are:
$40, 50 so and $l.S0. The transcon-
t|Inental schedule proposes to increase the
Chicago rates to So 80 on all classes while
leaving the New York rate at 81. 80. The
same is done with soap articles. The pro-
posed Chicago rate to San Francisco on
that commodity is to be made Sl.S5 per
100 pounds, the New York rate to re-
main at 81. 90. Chicago merchants under
this tariff can pay freightto New York on
goods for California and then ship from
there and save about $l.50 per hundred.
