pennsyrvania,s rro.eht TratIlc.

EAsToN, Pa, June 1S.-Owing to the
great damage to the Pennsylvania rail-
road in the Conemaugh valley, and the
service Of only one track at present in
that section. the company has taken a
new route to get its western freight to
Erie. Most of the freight is now sent to
SunburY, thence to Wilkesbarre, and
thence over the Pennsylvania and New
to the Flatbrook railroad, which starts
at a point east of Ithaca. In order to
handle this freight the Lehigh Valley
sent six locomotives to Wilkesbarre last
week from Hazleton and Delano, and
two yesterday, Nos. 1899 and 4S2, from
the shops at South Easton. The COM
pany has also put on two extra freight
trains between Mauch Chunk and New
York to carry goods from the west.

Commerce RalInK.
BALTIMORE, June rs The Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad CO npany has taken :
decided stand on their reduction Of
pa se1ge. rates to ? csnss . mile Tor
parts Of IN or n ore persoas. This
club rats was ia general use On I'll rail-
roads prior to the decision Of Judge
Cooley. Of tbs interstate commerce COM
mission. declaring il to be inconsistent
and v.olative Of the interstlte commerce
act.
Last week the legal department Of the
Baltimore and Ohio. af the request OF
General Passenger Agent scale. handed
in an opinion upon The legality Of the
two cent rate as applicable 10 parties Of
ten or more. The company's counsel
hold that the rate could not be con.
gtrued into a violation " the interstate
commerce law inasmuch as it did not
constitute q discrimination against the
public or part Of 1t. Upon this the
passenger agent issued the following no.
tice:
Until further notice parties OF ten or more
persons travelling together on one ticket Will
be transported over these lines between sta
tions located thereon at a rate OF two cents
per mile per capita.
The Tranic Association Protests.
A protest was sent TO the Baltimore
and Ohio BY the Central Traffic associa-
ton against the cut, but the Baltimore
aud Ohio viii take no notice of il, and
the rate will not be Withdrawn unless
the company Is forced to do 50 by the
court on the ground that it is unlawful.
A meeting of the Sedbolrd Trunk Line
association will be hsld in New York to-
day, at which the question will be dis
cussed.

Bangor W mig
To the Editor II the Whis and Courier
wish to thank you with all nv heart
sorl and mind for YOUR timely, thruthfu
and powerful words in approval Of the clos
ing of the liquor saloons ii our city, and in
favor of keeping them closed II seems to
MT that every friend of virtue and social
good order in our community must enthusi-
ssticslly say amen to your manly utterances
The authorities OF Bangor have demon
strsiei their ability to close the saloons
and stop their hellish work. For two
week. these saloons have been in the grip
of our police force. and the outflow of in
toxica,ing drinks has practically ceased.
There is no argument that should be sp-
proved outside of Pandemonium which
can be offered in favor Of relaxing that
grip. Every interest in our city. public
and private. material and moral. demands
that they be kept closed. Has not the
good psme of our city been blsckeued,
has not Bangor been made a bye-word Of
Kissing and reproach all over the country !;
have not our sons, brothers and fathers been
tempted by open rum-selling in our midst !;
have not the entresties and prayers of our
wives. mothers and sisters been Knocked long
enough for halt to be called in this wicked
business? And now that il has been called,
will any one dare TO take the terrible respon-
sioility of couutermanding that call and reop-
ening cur streets to the flow of Intoxicating
drinks: Very truly yours,
