THE ALTON ROYCOTT.

CHICAGO, June 24.-EYidence is not
wanting that the board of rulings of the
Central Traffic association is making more
efforts than ever to make effective the boy
colt against the Alton. A circular has
been sent to the general managers of
eastern and western roads. The circular
says:
''Information from foreign lines has
been received by this board to the effect
that certain companies, parties to the joint
commission agreement, are not maintain
ing it in all particulars. The board will
feel obliged if you will kindly advise it of
the present attitude of your company upon
the following points: Is your company
paying passenger commissions at any point
within or beyond the territory of
the joint commission? Have you di-
rected your agents to discontinue the
acceptance Of commission moneys or
rewards for the sale of tickets? Do you
continue to sell tickets over the line of
the Chicago and Alton company? If you
have not already discontinued the accept
ance of tickets sold in or by the Chicago
and Alton will you not kindly advise us
that you will discontinue such interchange
of business? 1t seems desirable to the
board that the orders which have been
issued by majority of the joint commits
sion providing for the non-payment and
non-acceptance OF commissions, as well as
discontinuance of passenger relations
with the Chicago and Alton shall now be
made'general."
The above letter is, of course, private
communication to those TO whom it is ad-
dressed. Many of the managers who have
received it regard it as the expiring kick
of the boycott.

RATE CITING.

CHICAGO, June 24-Another break in
east bound lake and rail rates has been
inaugurated by the Ogdensburg Transit
company or Central Vermont line. From
the day the Central Vermont advanced

the Trunk Line association, that road has
not been able to get a car load of freight
from the west of Milwaukee. 1t claims
that the other lines are cutting rates and

freight has been going to New York at

also reduced. The Central Vermont has
made an open reduction from % cents 10
90 cents on the New England traffic. Other

NEWSY NOTES FROM NEARBY TOWNS

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.1
KITTANNINa, Nov. 20.-John B. Ruff
ner, of West Franklin township, this
county, who was arrested on the 9th
inst. to answer charge of the murder Of
Shields A. Rosenberger in September,
1866, was bound over at the preliminary
hearing before Justice Donaldson to-day to
answer at the court of Oyer and Terminer
at the December sessions.
An alteration that took place on the
premises of the defendant at that time sud-
denly ended in the throwing of stone at
young Rosenberger, who was taking cher
ries without permission from his trees, and
from the effects of which he fell to the
ground and died in a few minutes. No
actual eve witnesses of the occurrence were
called to-day, but from admissions subse-
quently proven to have been made by Ruff
ner, sufficient evidence seems to have been
cleaned to warrant an investigation in the
Criminal Court.
The long time intervening between-the
occurrence and the action now taken, is at
tributed to the removal shortly thereafter
of the father of Rosenberger from the
county ann is inability through lack of
means to urge the prosecution. Another
theory is that i'll will toward the defendant
held by outside parties has prompted them
to urge this prosecution as means of re-
venge.
. The respectability of the parties and the
investigation that will ensue, has already
elected much interest in the outcome of this
resurrected crime.
