follower FREIGHT RATES.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, Aug. 22-The confer
ence of railroad officers, adjourned from
Chicago to Sioux City, was held here to-
day to consider the Illinois Central amend
ment OF a reduction on fifth class freight
to twenty cents between Chicago and
Sioux City. All the roads except the Hi
nois Central emphatically refused to
accede to the reduction. They claimed
that reduction of the rate to Sioux City
would carry the same reduction to all
other Missouri river points, although Mr.
Wicker and Mr.. Baird admitted that the
allegation of the Sioux City business men
and merchants were true and that the low
rate on Minneapolis by the Central put
the Sioux City jobbers in hard straights.
The low rate goes into effect next Satur-
day but no more conference will be held in
Chicago before that date. Mr.. Wicker
declared that If the Central low rates goes
into effect it will extend low rates TO all
Missouri river points.

Ancient Peoples OF North AmericA.

The wealth and variety Of the mate
rails of American history are but littlo
appreciated. The people who inhabited
the American continent before it discov-
cry were not all of one race. but of many.
In North America alone there were moro
than seventy five distinct stocks. having
radically distinct languages and mythol-
ogies, having independent and diverse
institutions, and having diverse and
multifarious arts. At the north we have
the igIoo jewellers that live by the shores
OF the frozen seas: farther TO the south
we have races occupying dwellings made
of forest timber; other races xove their
habitations Of reeds; others built their
towns Of the clay OF mother earth: and
others erected their buildings Of stones
quarried from the cliffs; while still
others hewcd themselves habitations in
the solid rock. Some dwelt in towering
and almost inaccessible cliffs, while
other towns we're erected among tho
crags and cinders Of extinct volcanoes.
Some races were hunters, other races
were fishermen, still other races were
agriculturists. Some races worshiped
the sun and moon and stars. and the
gods Of the cardinal points; other races
made the mountains and the rivers tho
object Of their principal worship; and all
wogshiped strange Hydrologic beasts.
All Of the tribes were organizsd into
bodies polite as bodies of kindred, bat
the method Of organization was multi
farious. Many tongues were spoken:
harsh consonantal and cultural languages
were found in the cold climate Of the cx-
treme north and south. vocalic and rnu-
steal languages were found IN the sunny
lands Of the middle zones. Everywhere
the tribes had learned 10 Use picture
writing, and TO record events with pic
lures Of men and beasts and many con-
remional signs. They made tools and
implements Of stone and bone and shell
nd horn and wood. They made canoes
s.pd boats Of bark and logs, they Iaade
RATS and basket boats Of weeds, and
they made kayaks Of skins; and ia such
crafts they navigated the rivers. tho
lakes and the seas. The relics Of all
these Hydrologic, religions. institutions.
language, and arts must 10 recovered,

Of America; and the work must re done
