Tickets to Influence Trade.

There is a good deal OF kicking among
the jobbers, says Chicago paper, about
the way in which certain railroads are
distributing tickets to influence freight.
In the old days, before the interstate
commerce law was passed, the railroads
used TO furnish the large jobbers with
passes for their country customers to use
in coming to Chicago to buy goods. Now
the railroads furnish the jobbers with
regular tickets, such as are sold to the
travelling public, and only the railroad
or the jobber can tell whether they were
paid for or not. Some of the houses
claim that the big firms receive too many
favors, and one road was tly COM
PEELED to give house $50 tickle is to Keep
it quiet and retain its freight.

Hill as to the uniform continuation

holds that the earth becomes gradually
warmer as we proceed toward its center

The Boston and Albany railroad from
Boston to Worcester is about as fine
rebuke to careless housekeepers as can
be read by those who run. Not q scrap
of paper, not twig even, dares fall
along the line, or if they do, they are
quickly removed, as is every other trace
of rubbish. Walls, fences, the shrub
berry bv all the way stations, all bear
evidence of that Immaculate keeping
which the big road believes in and ma n
tains at the cost of eternal vigilance
not to mention the great expense of
dollars and cents. People who have
Travelled in England and on the CONT
nent are wont to deride the appearance
of American railroads, but much has
been learned from foreign systems,
and it can net be admitted now that our
companies are behind in the structure or
the appearance of these arteries of
travel. The Boston and Albany has
some of Boston's most priced suburban
towns strung like beads on its iron
threads, and it is as much TO the advan-
tage of real estate owners as it to the
pockets of the stockholders that this
high standard is SO admirably preserved.

TEXAS IMMIGRATION.

1t is reported from San Saba that pros
pectors were never SO numerous in the
history of that section. Their camps and
wagons are to be seen at all times and IN
all directions. Nearly all OF them be-
come interested in lands there before
leaving. The majority, who are home
seekers, will return later.
Floyd, one of the newly organized
counties in the West, will show as much
increase during the next year as any in
the state. Prospectors are numerous
and the lands around the centers are
quickly being taken up. The great pas
lures are quietly being divided into small
farms and the ranchero is giving place to
the farmer.
The fruit belt of the North is attracting
q great deal of attention and it is entirely
probable that great deal of capital will
be invested during the year in small
farms for fruit raising and gardening.

A Prosperous Year.

So far Texas railroads have no cause
TO complain of business this year. Not
v7lthstanding the rate wars, business on
the LIST of January, and even during the
summer months it has been heavier than
ever before known during the dull sea-
son. This applies to both freight and
passenger business, and the prospects
for the fall and winter traffic grow
brighter every day. Fears are expressed
by some that when cattle aud the cot
ton crop begin to move there will be q
famine of cars.

Judgment in planning and arranging
the work to be done on the farm will ac-
complish more than the amount of work
itself. Sys tenn and regularity save work

The hens give better results for the
capital and labor invested than larger

change of diet. Mr.. W.de, the noted

Raspberries are very partial to manure,

have persisted. All efforts to stay the
flames have proven unsuccessful
At about midnight fire was discovered
in No. 2 shaft at third level in the Ger
mania mine. The alarm was quickly
given to the force of men at work in the
mine. but in spite of their efforts to
escape five of the men at work between
the fifth and sixth levels in the same
shaft were cut of. The men are James
Thomas, his son Joseph Thomas, Hugh
Waller, James Sullivan and William
Banks, all miners.
The fire burned fierce1y and soon found
Its way to the surface and destroyed the
shaft house and threatened the engine
and boiler house. The entire timbering
OF the shaft and roof in that part of the
mine will doubtless be destroyed.
AS soon as it became known that sew.
eral men were in the burning shaft,
searching parties were organized and
sent in the mine to rescue the missing
men or to find their bodies. Waller
came to the surface once and returned
to look for his companion and there is
no doubt that he suffocated and fell
down the shaft.
The bodies of Thomas and his son
were found shortly before noon on the
fourth level near No. shaft. Could
they have gone twenty-five feet further
they would have been saved.
The loss will reach about 800, 900.

BISMARCK OUT.

The Restoration Of Prince Bismarck 40
copied BY the Emperor OF Germany-Gos-
sip n to the Cause OF the Trouble.
BERLIN, March 19.-It is officially an
nounced that Prince Bismarck's resigna-
ton of the Chancellorship has been ae-
copied. Announcement of the accept
ance was withheld by the Emperor
because the Constitution did not
admit of an interregnum in the
tenure Of the Chancellorship, and as the
choice of a successor to Prince Bismarck
was beset with difficulties, his Majesty
deferred his acceptance until he could
finally decide whom he should appoint
as Chancellor.
All the members of the Prussian Min
istry resigned at the same time Prince
Bismarck rendered his resignation.
The Reichsanzeiger makes no allusion
whatever to the resignation of Prince
Bismarck, while the North German Ga
zette prince Bismarck's organ) pub
1ished the reports concerning the resig-
nation of the Chancellor, but made no
editorial comment on the subject
The National Gazette says: ''The
gratitude toward the restorers of Ger
many that is filing the hearts of Ger
mans at this critical time proves that
Prince Bismarck will long be regarded
as the personification of Germany's
growth and prosperity"
The National Gazette believes that
Count Herbert Bismarck will remain in
office. 1t says that the Prussian Minis
try has not resigned.
The Tageblatt attributes the resigna-
ton of Prince Bismarck entirely to his
disagreement with the Emperor's policy
Of social legislation. The boerse was
only slightly affected.
Prince Bismarck declined an invita-
ton to the court banquet given in honor
of the delegates to the labor conference
in the picture gallery of the Schloss.
The censorship which was esta blished
over kilograms was continued until two
o'clock yesterday afternoon, after which
time all dispatches were allowed to pass
as formerly. The resignation of the
Prussian Ministry was merely formal
act, customary upon the resignation of
the Prime Minister, but it is reported
that the resignation of Count Bismarck
and Herr Won Maybech were seriously
rendered and may be accepted.
Herren Richter Goldschpit and other
Freissinnige deputies were invited to
the court banquet given on the part of
the Emperor, which is unprecedented.
It is stated that Prof. Hanel and Herr
Quenil (Freissinniges) will enter the
Cabinet as an earnest desire of the EN-
peror's to legislate for the people.
1t is reported Prince Bismarck became
incensed at the action of Herr Hinzpeter
in composing the labor rescripts without
consulting him. It is also asserted that
the Chancellor recently had dispute
with Herr Won Boetticher, whom the
Emperor favored, and also differences
with the Emperor on colonial matters.
