The Interstate Commerce Commission
has announced an opinion, prepared by
Commissioner Shoemaker, dismissinU
The complaint Of the New Jersey Fruit
Exchange against tho Central Railroad
Company of New Jersey aud the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company.
The point in controversy was the rea
sonableness Of the rates on peaches from
points on The defendants lines in New
Jersey to New York city; but as it was
unquestionably shown by the evidence
that the peaches were delivered In Jersey
City, and the carriage to New York was
by tue consignees, the Commission holds
that the transportation was entirely with
10 the State of New Jersey, and there
fore beyond its jurisdiction.
The opinion says: It is thought appro-
pirate to observe, however, that, in view
of the increasing volume of business ia
the peach traffic and the increased compe.
tition in the New York market a reason
able reduction in the rates might be just
that rates which we're probably reasona.

Robberies.
Some time between s O'Clock in the
evening and midnight of Sunday last
some persons broke into Hull's market,
on Main street, this city. By prying open
a rear window, and took therefrom lot
of cigars tobacco. candies, nuts, etc.
They opened rear door leading to a
she'd on the premises, and under this shed
they left evidences Of having enjoyed a
feast. Nut shells. matches, &C., were
stiewn around both inside and outside Of
the market house.
During the same time parties forced an
entrance into the confectionery and fruit
store Of Dominick BATH, on Union street,
By breaking pane Of glass in a window
in the rear, thus being enabled to get
hold of the 'catch and raise the window.
Here they stole lot Of bananas, cigars,
candies and $3.50 in cash, and strewed
fine-cnt tobacco on the floor. Mr.. BATHS
loss is about $500.
Suspicion points to a number Of boys of
this city, whose ages range from 10 to 10
years ef age, ss theis conduct Cor some
time past has been noticeable and has not
been greatly to their credit. A gentle
man who resides opposite Hull's market
saw number Of these boys on Sunday
evening climb over the fence enclosing
the market grounds, but had no idea that
they intended robbery. 1t is thought a
few days will bring light on the matter
and these youthful thieves be brought to
justice.
