CURIOSITIES OF FREl CHIT.
Rates Less From New York Than
Chicago to st. Paul.
THREATENING THE TRUNK LINES
The Eject of the Atoms Withdraw
From the Interstate Commerce
Railway Association - The
Cut In Lumber Rates.
The Northwestern Complication.

CHICAGO, June 16.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. The northwestern situation has
been still further complicated by a reduction
of the ST. Paul Sc Duluth to 81 cents, New
York to st. Paul. This brings out the inter-
esting state of affairs that New York and
eastern merchants can ship freight from sea-
board points to st. Paul cents cheaper than
the Chicago merchant can ship exactly the
same class of goods from Chicago to st.
Paul, the local rate from Chicago to st. Paul
being 60 cents.
After repeated and futile attempts to set-
tie the question with the Lake lines, the
roads now have under consideration the
abolishing Of all pro-rating arrangements via
Chicago. This WILL in effect, make the
through rate from the seaboard to st. Paul
the sum Of the locals from the seaboard TO
Chicago, and from Chicago to st. Paul. The
proposition is bluff at the trunk lines, but
is more than likely to win. The object
Of the bluff is to compel the
trunk lines to stop helping out the
lake lines by pro.rating with them at Buffalo.
All-rail freight from the seaboard comes via
trunk and central traffic lines to Chicago.
The Vanderbilt lines. the New York Gen.
Nickle Plate; the Pennsylvania road with
its western lines, the Fort Wayne and Van
dalia; andrhe whole Baltimore and Ohio
system, are vitally interested in the continu-
ance of the pro-rating arrangements with
Chicago. II the through rate becomes the
sum of the local, and the trunk lines still
feed the lake lines at Buffalo, almost every
pound of freight to and west Of Chicago and
St. Paul will come by lake. West bound
traffic over the Central Traffic lines, and
trunk lines without lake connections, will be
confined almost wholly to local points. This
is the club the western roads are holding
over the heads of the trunk lines, and if 1t
falls as it is liable to do, the thud will be of
the ID. S. kind.
"a NTo-morrow the matter will be considered
by the western roads, and, according to the
present outlook, pro-rating arrangements via
Chicago are likely to be abolished. 1t is
hard to tell, however, what day will bring
forth

The banquet rendered TO the Omaha base
ball team by local enthusiasts, with Dan
Honin as the moving spirit in the affair, at
the Hotel Barker last evening" In honor OF
their late triumphal tour, was quite an elab-
crate event. Caterer Balch spread himself
in getting up the collation., and his tables
were one grand symposium Of flowers and
all the delcacies Of the season. Covers
were laid for about seventy-five guests, ana
amongithem were the sturdy and Rentlemanly
Minneapoitans, whe are here vainly attempt
ing to wrest O ball from Omaha's redoubt-
able knights of the diamond. After
a neat and felicitous welcome speech
by MIR. Honin, which was as happily re-
sponded to on behalf Of the appreciative ball
tossers by Manager Selee, tho gong sounded,
and to the mellifuous strains Of the Musical
Union orchestra an onslaught was made
upon the good things SO lavishly supplied by
Mine Host Balch. There was q constant
fusilade OF wltticisps and repartee kept up
all through this delightful gastronomic exer-
else, and IL the Minnies do not take advan-
tage Of the indscretions OF their adversaries
this afternoon IL will be because they TOO
could not resist the temptation to overload
themselves with the Barker's delectable vi
ands There were none but cold water
toasts, but as the boys got warmed
up TO their work. many good things
were said and the feast continued
on until we'll along toward the small
hours. 1t was an extremely pleasant affair,
and one that will live long In the memory of
all participants. The menu was as follows:
Boulion.
Baked Blue Fish, Tartar Sauce.
Shoestring Potatoes.
Sliced Cucumbers.
Croquetts of SweetDreads.
French Peas.
Roman Punch.
Cigarettes.
Broiled Spring Chicken.

Atoms Withdrawal.

CHICAGO, June 17.-[Special Telegram to
The BEE. The prophesies Of the utter col
lapse of the Interstate Commerce Railway
association, owing TO the withdrawal of the
Alton road, seem to be a trifle premature.
AS prominent official of Central Traffic
road said, to-day: SIT seems to me that the
withdrawal of the Alton will have less effect
on the association than that of any other
road in it. The Alton Is not, by any means,
demoralizer. 1t will probably cut the live
stock rate to the bone, but will
cut it openly. For this reason the
roads in the association will have no diff
Guilty in meeting the rates, as an article of
the agreement, introduced, by the way, by
Vlce-President McMullin, of the Alton, gives
them all the privilege of meeting Immedi-
ately any rate made by an outsider. AL
though the Alton can not officially sever its
connection with the association until July Is,
it considers itself, and is considered by the
members, as an outside road. The with
drawal of the Alton is NO more of reason n
for the dissolution of the association than the
refusal of the Illinois Central to JOIN was
reason, In the beginning, lor its non-forma-
tion.n
The Alton is not ready to say yet what
action 1t will take relative to the live stock
traffic, except that 1t proposes to get its
share. Not long ago Vice-President McMul-
lin claimed that the live stock rate from Kan
sas City to Chicago was too high, as it gave a
chance for the weak roads to manipulate it.
He was IN favor of lowering the rate to
living figure, where it could not be cut ex-
cept at a loss. This policy will undoubtedly
be adopted.
To-day General Manager Chappell said :
"Our withdrawal was decided on only after
the most careful consideration. A meeting
of the directors was called, and they agreed
thing to do. We stood the manipulation
of the ST. Paul road as long as we could
We have practically been paying them money
by allowing them to haul traffic which right
fully belongs to us. We are going to quit

the furniture moved from III Clark street
to the cottage. The detectives have had
him under surveillance, but he gave them
the slip and they had lost track of him for
some time.
Burke's connection with the case, it was
found out later, is Just this: He is the man
who hired Martinson. the expressman, to
carry the furniture from III Clark street to
the Carlson cottage. Detective Palmer Sc
cured the photograph of the fellow. which was
shown to Martinson and declared by him to
be that of the man who hired him to
carry the furniture to the Carlson
cottage. Burke obtained some money from
persons whose names the police refuse to
divulge, and with it bought ticket for
Liverpool via tho Allan line. He then
boarded train for Winnipeg, intending to
go thence to Montreal, but was arrested at
the former place. Burke is q Clan-na- Gael

The st. Paul Reduces Rates.

CHICAGO, June 1.-THE Chicago, Mil
waukee g. st. Paul road to-day gave notice
that, taking effect June 49, the rates from
Davenport to the interior Of Iowa and
east of the Mississippi river would
be SO arranged as to virtually abolish
bridge tolls and amounts to a reduction
Of 10 per cent in rates from Illinois
points located on the river The action of
the Chicago g. Alton railroad in giving no.
tice of withdrawal from the Inter State
Commerce Railway association is generally
resarded as the beginning of the end of the
presidents agreement. Chairman Walker
to-day, in letter to Vice-President Mullen,
of the Alton, acknowledging the re-
ceipt Of his communication, says: ~
can not refrain from expressing my
regret that before making your
action formal you did not inquire as 10 the
course taken by the Chicago, Milwaukee g.
st. Paul under the recent recommendations
of the executive board. Had you done so,
believe that your inference would, to some
extent at least, have been modified"
