WHO TOLD HIM so.

In the awarding of the city adver-
Using which came up before the coun-
Gil yesterday, Alderman Rogers in
formed the council that from the best
information that the committee had
been able to gain the Times had a
much larger circulation than the
LIGHT, and therefore the committee
had recommended the Times al
though the LIGHTS bid was the low
est. 1t is unfortunate that the sapi-
ent alderman did not inform the
council upon what data that conclu-
sion was based. He should have
been more specific as to his sources of
information. Did he derive that
knowledge from the number of car
riers employed, the shipping bills of
the two journals, an examination Of
their business, or from what source?
No inquiry was ever made at this
office concerning circulation and
the charter does not make Cir
culation a condition upon which
an award is to be based. Now,
if Alderman Rogers had reported
that the committee had found that
the LIGHTS bid was the lowest, but
that the committee had concluded to
recommend that the printing be given
to the Times because of it's work in
the late municipal election in favor of
himself and council partisans, if
the committee had reported this the
LIGHT would have interposed no OBJ
lection. In fact this is generally
understood to have been the case.
The LIGHT was informed at noon yes
day that the Times would be recon-
mended on account Of services rem
dered the administration, but that
the reason assigned would be that
the Times had the largest circulation.
The LIGHT acknowledges the very
services rendered the pres
ent administration by the Times but
denies the fact of its larger or equal

The rapid transit ordinance has at
last assured some form in which it is
not impossible that the franchise
may be utilized, although as COM
pared with other cities of much larger
populations and increased business
requirements, it is still burdensome.
Had the franchise as now granted
been passed some four or five months
ago, when first asked, there would
have been much better chance of
some corporation taking hold and
pushing the work toward the fair
ground in the time imperativeIy de-
manded by the ordinance. As it is il
leaves the city at least a chance of
securing a rapid transit road.

He blamed the League.

LONDON, January 24.-At the hearing
before the Parnell Commission to-day
Captain Slack traced the outrages in
Ireland to the League and to the in
famed language of Irish members of the
Commons, the priests and other leaders.
There was no abnormal distress in his
district. He thought the outrages would
not have occurred had they not been in
stigated by the League. On cross-ex-
animation Captain Slack said that, as a
rule, the Irish leaders did not denounce
the outrages, but there might have been
exceptions.
Inspector Rogers deposed that he
searched the house of Mary O'Connor,
secretary of the Ladies' Land League at
Athlone, and found several letters from
Anna Parnell with reference to the for
nation of ladies' branch for the relief
of evicted tenants. Miss O'Connor's ac-
counts disclosed the expenditures for the
defence OF prisoners charged with out
RACES.
Sir Henry James announced that he
intended to read extracts from speeches

ceeded to read extracts from a speech by
Biggar in 1886. Biggar, interrupting,
said he would not have the extracts yet,
and Sir Henry was compelle d to accede.

Western railroad presidents to consider
the recent agreement made in New York
for the purpose of putting stop to rate
cutting and other disturbing practices
by secondary executive officers, was

absence of Charles Francis Adams, of
Boston, temporary chairman of the asso-
citation, who has been unable to reach
the city, though it was at his call that
the meeting was convened.
President Parkins of the Burlington
road was also absent and the Wisconsin
Central was without representative.
AS neither of these roads has yet given
its adhesion to the agreement the
meeting was at the outset
handicapped by the fact that, however
much in accord they might be, their de-
liberations could not be conclusive. At
.15 recess was taken until 2:20 this
afternoon. Seventeen of the twenty. one
lines invited to the conference vera rep
resented. Vice-P President Stone was there
for the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy.
The Illinois Central was not represented.

had at the morning session.
