Isit . War In Corn Ratess

Chairman Midgley yesterday wrote a letter
to the mombers Of the Western Freight Asso-
citation informing them that the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi road had reduced the rate on flour
from St Louis to Baltimore from 25 to p cents
per 100 pounds. drop Of 4 cents Western
traffic men arc generally Of tho opinion that
this is really Baltimore and Ohio move and
that it Is merely preliminary to the predicted
cut In corn rates by that road for the benefit Of
Gill d Fisher. tho baltimore grain dealers.who
have bought up millions OF bushels Of new corn
west OF the Missouri River.
1t Is still too early to reduce the corn rate.
sthe new crop is not yet ready to be moved.
When this scheme was operated two years ago
II not only worked great injury to the other
roads in competition with tho Baltimore and
Ohio. but it was accompanied by the worst car
famine ever known in the West. At ono time
fully $4,000 cars Of grain were crowded on the
Eastern lines Of the l3al timorc and Ohio. caus-
ing a blockade that lasted for many weeks.
while the Western roads were pleading in vain
for the return Of their ears. Western officials
express the fear that II similar experience is in
store for them this year.

by which the punishment can fit the crime.

Many an Old Forter will remember lit
tie dark skinned, black haired, foreign
looking boy playing in Front street and
around "2's" engine house forty-five or
fifty years ago. He will be recalled as
Johnny Dominis. He was . stranger and
the boys took him in. The story of the
boy was this:
His father was captain of a whaler, who,
with his wife and three children, Johnny
and his two sisters, lived at Is Front street
in the hospitable home Of the Rev. DR.. An
drew Yates. Dominis cruised in the
This was missionary ground, and Dominis

Catherine, died of remarkable complaint.

rapidly, tall, slender and fragile, dropped
Colonel Christopher Yates and by the
grave of DR.. Andrew Yates.
The captain took his last voyage. Pr
rates seized his ship in the South Pacific,
and the brave officer was made TO walk a
plank into the sea. The widow and her
CItluIcu went TO the C3uQWlcQ 1SldnQS,
leaving some boxes Of household goods in
the charge Of the family with whom she
had lived 50 long. A prey to dementia
and melancholy, she walked every day
along the shores of Honolulu, refusing to
believe the death of her husband, and
watching hourly for his return. A little
while ago the faithful wife's vigil ended,
and she met him on another shore.
Meanwhile Johnny throve apace. He
was well taught at Miss Ritchie's school,
grew to be man of brain and nerve and
activity, won the confidence of King
Kalakaua, was made governor of the
island of Oahu, married Liliuokalani, the
kings sister, and ultimately became In
reality the ruler Of the islands.
King Kalakau4 came to this country on
visit in 1881. and Johnny came with him.
Johnny was written to by those of DIR.
Yates family, who were then in Schenec-
tady, to come and get his two trunks. But
he had his hands full with the royal trav-
eler, and he wrote letter Of thanks,
saying that he had intended to
come here, but his constant attendance on
his majesty made it impossible. He did
not say he was having worse racket than
he ever had on the Old Fort, but it could
be read between the lines. He directed
the trunks to be opened. They were, but
nothing but what had evidently been
handsome furs and laces and other femi-
nine bric-a-brac crumbling into dust was
disclosed.
And nov the king is dead. Johnny's
