SOUTHWESTERN FREIGHT RATES

CHICAGO, H., Nov 20.-J. w. Midgely,
chairman OF the Western Freight Associa-
ton. arrived home today from New York
where he has been in consultation with
Jay Gould and other magnates. The con-
ference has given rise TO many rumors
concerning plans that were supposed to be
under consideration for the improvement
in the rate situation in the territory
travcrsed 10y the Atchison, the Missouri
Pacific and other Southwestern systems.
While Mr. Midgely said he was not at
liberty to disclose the real objects and re-
suits OF The conference, he spoke OF the
various published reports as il they ere
not entitled TO serious consideration, and
incidentally called attention TO the fact
that the Transcontinental Association, to
which the Southwestern systems belong,
is today the best railway organ
ization in the country, 50 far
as maintaining agreed rates and
observing fixed rules are concerned. He
thinks the gossip OF a rate Agreement grew
out OF conference that was held in New
York last week by the presidents of the
roads Interested in Texas traffic. Tho re-
suit oi this conference was an agreement
TO advance all Texas rates and on Friday
last the presidents notified the general
freight agents OF their respective lines u
revise their tariffs accordingly.

braces the Texas roads viii be held ia

Transcript will say Senator ]. S. G.
Blackburn and Col. Stoddart Johnson ar
rived here yesterday ut noon, and were
joined by Gen. Basil Duke, who is here on
a visit, and Gen. james +. Robinson, of
this city. They went by a rather obscure
route TO the rear OF the Phoenix Hotel and
entering the building went to rooms that
had been secured Tor them by telegraph.
Evidently their purpose was TO be quiet as
possible, and none but newspaper reporters
got wind OF their presence. The gentle
men alluded 10 held a consultation that re-
suited in a conclusion that Senator Black
burn should write 4 communication TO the
COUtcT-loYbd', which was done, aud tile
letter sent 10 thatjournal this afternoon 10y

stated TO a 7rGHscrin reporter that neither
Senator Il ackburn nor any of his friends
! knew anything about the presence OF Col.
| j. =. Moore in this locality, or any other,
! with a challenge from Judge Rucker for
| Sena.or Blackburn. II Moore was known
10 be anywhere with challenge for Sena-
tor Blackburn, the tone OF that gentle
mans letter TO the towie-JouTGi would
have been very different In point OF fact
Col. Moore is not here, and has not been.
Senator Backburn's letter is in substance
as follows
The statement made by RucKcr regard
ing what President Cleveland had said TO
him was totally Inaccurate, aud any report
Of it would have been wholly inexcu.able
even IL IL had been accurate. But he had
concluded that his language regar'l--,,
Rucker was too severe, and though he felt
no disposition 10 say anything by way OF
apology To Rucker himself, he did feel that
h. owed the apology 10 his (Blackburn'sl

respectfully rendered IT,
