Missouri Rate Troubles.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 2S.-Chair-
man w. W. Finley. of the Western Pas
senger association, arrived in the city
this morning from Chicago and presided
at to-day's meeting of the Trans Mis- =
siouri committee of the Western Pas

day considered several matters of inter

basis with the Chicago roads that were,
it is claimed, doing land Office bust
ness in the sale of forbidden return
harvest excursion tickets, ana the
charges and counterchargeS of the Bur-
lington and the Rock Island regarding
an alleged cut of the rate to San Fran
cisco. were investigated. The meeting
adjourned without taking action upon
either of these matters. Mr.. Finley re-
turned to Chicago this evening. Be-
fore taking his train, he said to re-
porter that he attributed the cause of
the present uneaSnesS in trans Mis-

and scalpers. They, he said, were the
chief distributing factors, and he was
attempting TO find remedy for the
evil. He declined to divulge his plans,
but it was intimated from the tenor of
his remarks that he would, whenever
large blocks of tickets should fall into
the hands OF the scalpers, as the har-
vest excursion tickets have recently,au-
thorize the roads in the trans-Missouri
territory to sell below the scalperS' low

NOT AT ALL DISTURBED.
Union Pacific Managers Care
Nothing for Damaging Reports,

BosToN, Oct. 2S. - Vice President
Lane, of the Union Pacific railway.
was seen to-day with regard to the stories
with which the ''street" of late has
teemed derogatory to the Union Pacific.
its management, etc. With regard to
the s'boycott'' and the effect thereof,
Mr.. Lane said: 1.-THE west-bound
through business is really all that is af-
fected. and even this can suffer but
little" Mr.. Lane also remarked that
the Union Pacific Northwestern alli-
ance really concerned nobody but the
two roads in Interest; that what they
do is their own business. The Union
Pacific people are not at all disturbed
by the So called boycott" and they
find in the causes leading to it and in
the ill-feeliig of competitors an in
spiration for all the recent wild reports
concerning the road.
The stories of accidents have, Mr..
Lane says, been greatly exaggerated.
Their system is getting an enormous
traffic at the present time, more indeed
than it can comfortably handle, and its
equipment is necessarily getting severe
usage. A few accidents have, naturally,
occurred under these circumstances,
but none of these have involved any
serious damage, and there have been
no more than would occur on any line
when handling an extraordinarily big
traffic. They are brought into promi-
nence now simply for effect, and to sat
iSfy somebody's spite. "Our expenses
are unusually heavy, and our equip
ment repairs have of late been very
large, and to these facts is due our poor
statements of earnings published Of
late"
AS regards the latest story from Chi
cago, published to-day, to the effect that
the management was working tacitiy to
wreck the road with view to ulti-
mately turning it over to the Wander
bits. Mr.. Lane says the yarn is too alb
surd to deny, and its animus is clearly
apparent to any one who understands
the present condition of affairs.
hir. Adams is expected home next
week, and upon his arrival he also may
have something to say about Union Pa
cific affairs aad the present attack upon
the management. He goes to Chicago
before his return to confer with Traffic
Manager Mellen, and important results
may come from that conference.

WRECKED BY LOSSES.
The Mutual Fire Insurance Com
pany, OF Chicago, Fails.


CHICAGO, Oct. 2s.-The Mutual Fire
Insurance company made an assign
ment to-day to I. G. Hlslip. The liabil-
tiles are said to be S57, SOC, and S25, 600
of contested claims against the
company. Tho assets are set down at
SlS7,000 s150,0e0 of this amount being
in premium notes and the balance con-
SiStipg of accounts receivable, notes
and meetings. The cause of the failure
was said by Myron Ii. Beach. the COM
pany'S attorney, to be principally In the
unusually severe losses the company
had sustained during the past year.
The company, of which w. Z. Smith is
secretary and manager. did a large bus
lness out of town, carrying many heavy
RISKS throughout the West. South and
Northwest. Negotiations are at the
present time pending by which a
reinsurance of all risks held by the COM
pany can be effected, and it is said to be
probable that all claims will be paid in
full. The large excess of assets over
Liabilities lies in the many premium
notes held by the company, a large
number of which cannot be collected.
The directors OF the concern are all
wealthy men, comprising Silas W. Gar
diner, of Lyons, TO-; ARENAS Lamb, of
Clinton, TO-, both millionaire lumber
men; w. E. Smith and Is. f. Ray, of
Chicago; j. W. French. of Three Riv-
erS, Mich, and L. G. Smith, of Rock
ford, Ills.

but no part iii its dividends. Hence it
follows that it is difficult to make many
people see the beauties of this McKIN-
LEY gospel. They have prejudiceS in
favor of moderate prices for the articles
they are forced to buy to live. They
are, possibly, more concerned to have
goods at cheap prices than they are to
avoid the imrutations the language of

others would attach to them. rs,s

IowA's JOINT RATE MIDDLE.
1t Finally Reaches the State SUI
preme Court.

pFeme Court.
Dies MONIES, Oct. 2S.-The case of
the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & North
ern Railway company, appealee, vs..
Peter A. Day. Spencer Smith and T. F.
Campbell. railroad commissioners of
the state of Iowa, appellants, from the
Johnston district court, came up in the
supreme court here. The argument of
the railway attorneys was that the joint
rate law is unconstitutional on the
ground that it seeks to compel roads to
enter into contract relations with other
railway companies, without consent, to
surrender cars to other companies or to
unload them without compensation
and to part with equipment
to other companies. thereby
imperiling and embarrassing its
ability to furnish transportation for its
own line IN accordance with its duty as
common carrier. They also held that
the law is void Oh account of the Omis-
sion by the printer of line in the third
section, making that section meaning
less. Attorney General Stone. for the
commissioners, contends for the valid
lty of the law, notwithstanding the
omission of 4 sentence in the bill made
by printer, on the ground that the
spirit of the law aud the intentions of
the general assembly should be consid-
cred as well as the literal reading. 1t is
probable that no opinion will be filed
until the next term of court.

Failure to Carry Out a Contract
Leads to Litigation.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Oct. 2S.-The
Elm City Driving park, owned by Mich
olas W. and Joseph E. Hubinger, of this
city, was to-day attached for $4,000 by
j. c. Hubinger, of Keokuk, 10. The
attachment resulted from alleged
failure of the New Haven Hubin-
gers to carry out their part of
an agreement to transfer their starch
business to their Iowa brother. The
starch business is yariously estimated
to be. worth from SlO0,O00 to 81 500, 900.
The New Haven Hubingers claim that
the last inStallnent of 500, QUO due them
was long overdue. and the Western
Hubinger claims to have come to New
Haven with the cash In hand ready to
meet the obligation, but the New Haven
HubingerS were absent and there was
no one to receive the money.

COLLIDED ON A GRADE.
Two of Barnum's Circus Trains
Wrecked With Fatal Result.

MACON, Ca, Oct. 2S.-Barnum's cir
Gus train, in five sections, left here this
morning at O'Clock for Athens on the
Covington q Macon road. Five miles
from Monticello the trainmen lost con-
troll of the third section on long down
grade, and it dashed into the rear
of the second section, on the end
of which was the cooks car, pre-
ceded by car containing horses.
A man named Kelly. of Kalamazoo,
Mich, In the car was killed and another
man, name unknown, was badly hurt.
Eight horses in the forward car were
killed. The two engines pulling the
third section were derailed and badly
damaged, as were six freight cars fol-
lowing. The fireman of the first en-
CINE, Lewis Glenn, was instantly killed.
The engineers of both engines and the
other fireman jumped. The show will
lose two or three appointments. The

NO CONVENTION NEXT YEAR.
Engineers Will Meet in Atlanta
in 1892.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct 2S.-The Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers is still
in session, but expect to finish their
business in a few days. This morning
George r. Dority, of Division No. 81,
Charleston, Mass. was reelected grand
chaplain, and r. NJ. Clark, of Denver
No. 1856, was elected grand guide. The
place for holding the next convention
was the subject for considerable debate.
The champions OF each claimant for the
honor urged their claims well and elo-
quently. At the final vote for location.
it was announced that Atlanta, Ca, was
the choice of the convention for the next
international meeting. The time of
meeting is still before the convention,
but has arrived at such stage as to
warrant the announcement that May Is,
1892, will be decided upon. The year
1891 will be blank year, therefore, in
order not to bring the conventions closer
than a year. The afternoon was given
to an excursion to WIlmerding, where
the plants of the estinghouse Air
Brake company were shown.

DIVISION OF TRAFFIC.
Southwestern Lines Agree to Keep
the Peace Until Jan. 1.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-A meeting of the
managers of the Southwestern Missouri
river lines, adjourned from Oct. 10. was
held at Chairman Walkers Office to-day
to give further consideration to the
question of division of competitive
traffic. Contrary to general expectation,
1t was harmonious meeting, and re-
suited in an extension of the time orig
inally allotted for the experiment. 1t
was unanimously agreed by the man.
ayers to extend the time one month,
making Dec. 1 the earliest date on
which notice of withdrawal can be
given, thus making the agreement bind
ing on all roads until Dec. 81. While it
is admitted that the arrangement for a.
division of traffic.has not proved ennis
neDtly satisfactory thus far, it seems
that all the roads in interest have faith
enough IN the experiment to give it
further trial. No attempt was made to
agree upon basis of percentage to gov
ern division of the business, that mat
ter being left to the board Of chairmen,
as heretofore.

A TRICK OF FIGURES.

The confusion into which this sudden
exhibition of the effect of the new tar
iff has thrown Its champions is shown
in the contradictory, absurd, and often
grotesque attempts to explain its mis-
sion and philosophy. In their founder
ings some ingenious persons have STUN
bled upon tricks in arithmetic that they
are trying to make work till after the
election. BY these it is alleged that the
MCKINLEY bill makes the average rate
of duty lower than the MILLS bill OF the
old tariff. The way this is worket out
is by gathering up all the trivial arti-
Giles, or those that the monopolists have
no occasion for, and putting them in
the shuttle. a an illustration, blankets
are taxed in the neighborhood of 100
per cent, and the eggs of Insects have
no duty at all. Put the two together
and the average duty is but so
per cent. One of their experts
in this way has brought the average
down to q per cent. No reason ap-
pears for stopping at those figures. The
trick is not exhausted. Hunt up the
things that have substance and names
and add to the compilation and an aver
age can be brought down to small fig
ures. Water and moonshine might be
included. Very little reflection will be
needed to see the abSurdity of this
method. The averages of the tariff al
WAYS mean the aggregate of the duties
divided by the number of articles taxed.
In this way the average rate of taxation
upon importations was found in the
first tariff to be per cent. The infant
was young then. Now DR.. MCKINLEY
finds that no less than 60 per cent will
enable the thing to he raised.
