One Eve on HI, Own Bu,Iue,..

Charles Emory Smith, of the Philadelphia
Press, has been telling his New York friends at
the Fifth Avenue, to-day, what he and other
Philadelphians think about several current
topics. He talked at greatest length about the
Worlds FAIR, Don Cameron's successor. and
the New York newspaper abuse of Postmaster
General Wanamaker. He said the Philadel-
phians thought New York somewhat apathetic
about the fair, or else they would have raised
$10,0O0000 long ago. His idea was that New
York stood the best chance. anyway. The gen.
eral impression prevails, he continued, that
Senator Don Cameron will succeed himself
Then referring to the Postmaster General, he
said Of course certain Democratic papers would
abuse him because he was a Republican, and
helped to elect Republican President. He
thought Mr.. Wanamaker was q great Post
master General, all adverse criticism notWith-
standing.

Efforts to Make the Strike General Meet With Little success-six Thou
 sand Five Hundred Mea out.
 CoNKELLsv1LLE, Pa, Aug. 2.-The efforts to make the coke strike general have thus fa, met with small success. The leaders of the strike last night were free in giving out the impression that this morning would witness the suspension of work at Trotter, Mayfeld, Donnelly, Cora, Bessemer, Pennsville and South-West No. for certain, and possibly at many more works. The day has passed and the list of idle works has been increased by the addition of only three. Meetings were held in the northern end of the region tonight to bring the men in the works at that section, particularly the employees of the Aeolure Coke company into line. The leaders think they will be successful in this and in the morning the works which were expected to come out this morning, but did not with the exception of Prick and South West No. 1, will join in the strike. The i'm pression prevails generally that it will be but a few days before the men now out will be willing and anxious to return to work.

THE AroH1seN,s NEW POLICY.

 1t Will Adopt che Same Policy as It's Competitors This Will Out OR the Alton and St. Paul and Wabash-The Alton will Withdraw From the Ass sociatisn.
 CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Traf6c Manager White of the Atchison has sent the following notice to Chairman Midgeley of the Westell ] Freight association: "About ono year ago to-day the Atchison, Topeka 6 Santa Fe company opened it's Chicago line for traffic. It was then drought best, pending action of other roads, not to put in effect the policy adopted by nearly all of its competitors, i. e., to make through rates to Chicago exclusively by ite own line but to continue it's rates and divi- sions with other lines east of Kansas City. In view, however, of reductions recently made in rates on live stock from points west of Kansas City On lower basis than those now in effect, it becomes necessary for this company, in protection of its own interest, to change it's policy above referred to, in so far as live stock traffic to Chicago is eoncern- ed, and to adopt @ policy in effect on the lines of most, If not all it's competitor, viz. To make it's through rates on live stock from
 
 line only.
 This plan will be adopted in the issue of the new tariff which is now under considera- tion, and which is made nececsary by the re- duction in Kansa1 City-Chicago rates on live stock made effective few days since." In other words the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, if it carries out the above threat will cut off not only the Alton, but the St. Paul and Wabash from all participation in it's business originating west of Kansas City, except it is taken after paying full local rates to Kansas City, thereby materially lowering Kansas City. Chicago proportion on this business. It is an exact duplicate of the stand taken by the Rock Island.
 Speaking of this matter General Manager Chappelle of the Chicago and Alton said to- day:
 The Alton joined the Western Freight as- sociation under the stipulation that it should share in Kansas City in all business origi- hating west of there. Owing to this stipula. tion the issuance of the threatening tariff by the Atchison practically sewers our connec- tion with the association. We shall certainly withdraw as soon es the tariff is issued.
 An evening paper says: "Nothing dedn- ite can be learned of the lumored purchase of the Kansas City branch of the Union Pa cifio by the Alton. General Manager Chap- belle of the Alton undoubtedly knows the facts in the case, but Is non-committal on the subject. There seems no question that negotiations have been going on. especially as President Blackstone is spending his al- legged vacation in Holland, where the major ity of the Kansas City Paci6o's securities are supposed to be on 8 vacation which he is spending in New York and Boston with prominent American representatives of the Dutch security holders"
