Stringing Wires on Shade Trees.
''Just look here They're at it again. said
a shade-tree trimmer on one of the extended
lines of the Electric Light Company to the
reporter. He referred to the fact that some
of the employees of the company had surrep-
titiously nailed the wires on the shade-trees.
Capt. Griffin, of the District Engineer De-
partment, when he was in charge called the
attention of the Commissioners to the fact
that the shade-trees were being ruined wher-
ever these wires were attached to them, and
he recommended that the violators of the
law should be promptly prosecuted. He
claimed that the telegraph and telephone
men sometimes were guilty of this practice,
and he concluded by saying that the franchises
of these companies are valuable enough with
out resorting to such lodges to increase their
profits.

The Mexican Rates.
Special to the Gazette.

SptCldl W LLc uaZtltc-
New YORK, Oct. 30.-The opinion is
growing among the lines interested in the
traffic to Mexico that the real reason why
the Mexican International blocked the new
agreement to end the rate war was because
the Southern Pacific, which controls this
this line. has an axe to grind. The present
low rates give the Southern Pacific GER
tain advantages over the Texas and South
western lines. In spite of the denials that
the railroad situation in the United States
is affected as long as the 50-cent rate pre-
walls from New York to Mexico, the same
rate will be quoted to New Orleans, as
some of the Southern Pacific and other
steamers for Mexico stop at New Orleans
en- route. None of the railroad lines from
New York to Texas can pretend to COM
pete with the water route at such a rate,
and as the Southern Pacific has a girdle
from ocean to ocean, the rates to the Pa
CT fic coast are thus affected.
Furthermore, there is evidence that a
good deal of business from inland points,
such as Chicago and Milwaukee, which
would naturally reach Texas by rail, can
route more cheaply to New York first and
thence by the Morgan line to Texas. Traf-
tic by this circuitous route is increasing
daily and this it is suggested may be one
reason why the Southem Pacific wanted to
keep the rates tb &Eico down.

Refuse to Handle Cotton.



AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. 30.-The circular re-
Gently issued by the commission concerning
rates on compressed and uncompressed cot
ton has been generally observed by the
roads. One. however, the Houston and
Texas Central railway, refuses to take cot
ton from points having no congresses, with
the privilege of COMPRISING en- route to
destination in Texas. Circular No. 25 is
sued by the commission provides that ship
pers from points having no congresses
shall have compress rates on cotton unless
the roads choose to have the cotton COM
pressed and pay for the same, in which case
the rate is 10 cents per 100 pounds higher
than the compressed rate. The circular
was intended TO place all stations having no
congresses on an equality with those hav-
ing congresses. The commission will cause
prosecution to be instituted in the proper
courts in every case of violation of tn Cir
cular.
The commission has lately discovered
that the short line of railroad in Cass
county, running from Kildare to Linden,
and intended chiefly for hauling logs, has
no charter, although it is said to be doing a
freight and passenger business. 1t is owned
by the jefferson lumber company.
