RAILROAD INTERESTS.
RATES TO THE NORTHWEST UNCERTAIN.
THE LAKE LINES OBJECT TO THE BASIS
ADOPTED BY THE CONFERENCE.

ADOPTED BY THE CONFERENCE.
The conference called for the purpose OF cffcctng
adjustment OF rates to the Northwest on the all
rail and the Lakeland rail routes continued yes
terday at No $40 Broadway. \ majority Of the roaHs
represented adopted report recommending rate OF
~ 80 hundred pounds on frstclass freight from
New-No.l 10 st. Paul by the arail routes, and The
maintenance OF the same dIeren;als that were al
lowed during the last year The adoption OF this
report would make the rate basis follows; by
all rail route 81 50: by Lakeland rail through Chicago,
81 II by Lakeland rail through Duluth. 81 o.
The lake lines, however expressed strong dssatis-
faction with this basis They assert That, unless a
greater dferenual is allowed, the Chicago iobbers
Will have An advantage over the st. Paul loDDers
in the distribution of freight in the same territory
The lake lines to Chicago MISC claim drcrcntal
compared with the lines 10 Duluth, on the basis
Of length Of route The distance from Buffalo to
Chicago and that from Buffalo to Duluth are about
equal but Duluth Is considerably nearer st. Paul
than is Chicago. The Duluth lines, on the other
hand want to retain the difference of 10 cents In
their favor, which now exists.
The lake lines Yesterday formed Themselves into an
association to be known the Lake Managers Asso'
ciatiOn with headquarters at Buffalo. They VIII meet
next week and decide TO the adoption Of the report
recommended By the conference yesterday. In the
week. following probably Wednesday. the confer

ton Of rate basis will be definitely decided upon.

The rumor which is now abroad in Ger
many that Won Caprivi, the chancellor of the
Empire. will soon resign. is probably founded
on an accurate knowledge Of the position in
which be is placed.
That position is far from being a pleasant
one TO aman of any independence Of mind
Up to the present time the German Premier
has shown sufficient tact TO assure his reten-
ton in Office, but it is now doubtful whether
he regards the offensive conditions upon which
his retention depends as being worthy OF
being overlooked ON account of the distjnc-
ton with which he is invested by occupation
Of the headship Of the German Ministry.
TO all who aro acquainted with the char
acter of the Emperor it is known that
the premiership carries only nomi-
nal authority. The chief figure. both
personal and official in the Empire is
William, and he has shown from the begin
ming determination that his official servants
shall be merely the mechanical mouthpieces
Of his wishes. Won Capriyi is generally adj
mitted to be q man of very fine talents, but
during the whole course of his administration

his master.
The position is a Notifying one, and ne the
present Chancellor is no sycophant. it is not
surprising that be finds that it grows more and
more disagreeable and irksome. The fiery
and domineering soul of bismarck could not
brook the persistent supervision even in the
smallest details, of the ambitious man who
now fills the German throne, and although
Caprivi can lay claim to none Of the imperial
spirit of the great ex-Chancelor, he is enough
of a man to ind the position in which he is
now placed essentially hostile to his temper
and disposition.
The retirement Of the Chancellor is dis
tinctly foreshadowed, and when he with
draws tho Emperor viii most probably ap-
point a successor who Will be as much in
feror to Caprivi as Caprivi is to Bismarck
William IS evidently resolved to surround
himself with ministers whose capacity and
whose powers will transcend but little those
of ordinary clerks.

RFIMBURsE THE v. NJ. I.

| Major Peter J. Otey. of the board of trus-
toes of the Virginia Military Institute. has
| published letter in the Lynchburg News,
which is reproduced elsewhere. urging that
the United States reimburse that time-hon-
ored and valuable institution of learning for
| the great losses sustained by it from the dcs-
truction of its buildings by the Federal forces
! during tho war.
The suggestion is an admirable one, and
must appeal TO the sense of justice Of every
right-thinking and fair-minded man in Con-
gress.
On June IA, 1864. by order Of Maior-Gen-
eral Daniel Hunter, commanding United
States forces in the Valley the barracks. IL
brary. mess hall. laboratories, chemical and
philosophical apparatus. all furniture ana
stores of the Virginia Military Institute. gas
and steam heating fixtures professors quar-
tiers, hospital and hospital stores, were de-
stroyed. There was nothing leftupon the prem
ises but the quarters of the superintendent.
which from providential causes was spared.
Without discussing tho useessness of that
work of destruction. II IS only necessary now
TO call attention to tho fact that the Virginia
Military Institute has been of incGlculable
benefit TO the cause Of military education IN
this country Professor Mahan. who was for
many years the highly cultivated and distin-
guished professor Of engineering at
Wess Point. once said that in that
institute the people OF Virginia themselves
did not appreciate what magnificent educa-
tional institution of its kind they possessed.
He said that il was equal to any similar
school in France, superior to any in England,
and. next 10 West Point, ahead Of any in the
United States. That he spoke the truth is at
tested to by General O. O. Howard. who also
spoke of the Virginia Military Institute as
second only TO West Point and by the
splendid record made by the graduates of the
Institute during the war between the States.
1t s but proper to say that what tho institu-
ton did for the Southern cause it IS ready 10
DO for the United States whenever occasion
may demand it.
If Congress should not feel inclined to re-
imburse the Virginia Military Institute, there
fore. for the destruction OF its buildings as a
matter of justice. it should be disposed to do
30 as a matter Of policy, since all governments
recognize the adyisabiity of foster
ing schools devoted to military instruction.
Besides this. they will have precedent for
their action, as the University of Alabama, at
Tuscaloosa military school. was likewise
destroyed during the war. and Senator Nor
gan, of that State, succeeded in getting bill
through paying it for its losses.
If the Legislature will take the subject up
and bring it before Congress in the shape Of
a concurrent resolution there is every likeli-
hood that it will receive favorable considera-
ton

life was vrapt up in the elucidaton OF the geo.
graphical problems of tho African continent
and who was very much opposed to any ex-
pense being incurred or lives lost IN the effort
TO find out whether he was alive or not.
The celebrated expedition which Stanley
made to discover his whereabouts would not
have met with his approval if he had known OF
its Inauguration. and after its successful con-
cuson be positively refused to accompany the
intrepid American back to tho haunts OF civil
lization, but remained in the African wilds
until an attack OF fever extinguished his e1-
istence.
All the facts of tho expedition which STAN
ley led to rescue Emin Pasha Will be re-
called By those who are interested IN African
exploration That expedition gave Emin his
chief distinction and yet SO ungrateful was
ho tina: he refused 10 return TO Zanzibar
voluntarily. and it was only by the exercise
Of moral force that he was finally induced to
submit TO the wishes of Stanley. At the
earliest opportunity Emin went back TO
Africa. and. accompanied By q large body Of
native soldiers and porters, plunged into the
region which lies in tho vicinity Of the Albert
Edward lake.
This region s far removed from all means
of communication with tho coast, which was
probably the reason which led the German
to seek it. He has now entirely disappeared,
and nothing has been heard from him for
such length Of time that grave fears have
been entertained rs to his safety and tho
safety Of those who accompany him. 1t is
now proposed 70 send out On expedition to
rescue him the second time, which seems to
be an unnecessary movement, as he has not
the slightest desire 10 be rescued and would
only regard it as an officious interference with
his plans.
If there was ever an African traveller whose
Disappearance in the Jungle would justify no
show of anxiety and would call for 10 at
tempt to drag him back into the light 1t
would seem to be Emin Pasha. lie resented
the expedition OF Stanley, which gave him his
greatest fame. for he has accomplished moth
ing as On explorer. as an obtrusion upon his
rights. second expedition would be still
more distasteful to him. and we hops that It
will not DO undertaken.
While we attach the proper value to human
life, it does not seem as if there was any
sound reason for risking the lives of great
expeditpnary force to save Emin andIhis fol-
lowers from possible peril. Let him carry
out the purposes which he has in view, and if
in doing so he loses lis life. that will be>his
own fault. and it should therefore occasion
