Routes Fall Flat.

CHICAGO, June 13.-[Special Telegram to
The BEEI-Negotiations between Chair.
man Fathorn and the Lake Superior lines,
looking to a settlement of the Northwestern
rate problem have ended in fiat failure.
The Lake lines argued that they sheld the
key to the situation, and would be foolish to
give up their advantage. The proposition
of the Western Freight association was that
the rates should be advanced to the former
standard. the lake lines to take sixty per
cent and the rail lines forty of the business.
AS was foreseen the proposition was refused,
there being no possible way to thus divide
The traffic The hope of some settlement was
not given up until late this afternoon. Time
was asked to allow the Freight ASSOCIATION
to consider local rates to st. Paul based on
the 28-cent through rate This matter was
made special order for tomorrow morning,
when the proposed reduction of the Burling-
ton g. Northern to o Ascent basis will be con-
'sidered. The Chicago Freight bureau will de-
mand q reduction to at least 3S-cents.

morning they went to the Henry VII. chapel
to hear sermon from Dean Bradley, and
afterwards paid visit TO the house of COM
mons
In the afternoon they attended a reception
given by the Institute Of Civil Engineers.
Sir John Goode, the chairman, read the for
nal address of welcome on behalf of his col
leagues. Prof. Thurston acknowledged the
address in suitable terms, ana after several
other speeches, an attack was made upon the
refreshment counter, below stairs, where the
thoughtful generosity of the Londoners had
provided abudant mint iulep, claret punch, gin
flzz ana other Yankee rarities, inartistically
constructed it is true, but dispensed with q

The evening was spent at banquet given

minister, and at his left, Lord Salisbury,
There were also present, MIR. Henry Besse-

=
Omitted States of America" coupling the
name of Mr.. Lincoln. AS the latter rose to
respond, tremendous salvo of cheers
greeted him. 1t is his first appearance Ia
public, since his arrival in England, and he
adverted to the fact in his frank, boyish
voice, when the enthusiasm of his hearers
had in a measure subsided. He had not
realized before that such welcome could be
accorded to an American minister in Eng
land or elsewhere, and he was at loss to
know how to respond. He had
been warned to leave engineering alone, be-
cause there were present so many experts,
so he did nog feel at liberty to refer to his
own experience as an engineer when he had
charge of an army and navy engineering
corps. In that period of his experience he
had seen some of the greatest engineering
feats of the time, namely, not only the inn
provement but the creation of rivers and
harbors on the American coast. He was
also debarred from speaking too much of the
United States, because there were SO many
Americans present that he dared not speak
anything but the truth; whereas, his
first impulse was to yield to
the feelings which he had brought
away from the Washington centenary
and paint his native country in such glowing
colors as would occasion an exodus OF all the
British engineers to America. What Mr..
Lincoln did say however was in effect that
the present occasion was one of many which
had come under his notice showing the per.
feet good feeling that bound America and
England together; that much of this interna-
tional amity was due to the work of the en-
gineers who were rapidly destroying timo
and space, and that he hoped that this good
feeling would continue forever.
