THE BALTIMORE AND oH1o's POSITION.

Baltimore, Aug. 21.-When asked about the reports
from NewYork and the West, charging the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad with disturbing the established pas
rates from the Ohio valley to the Atlantic sea-
board Charles o. scu the general passenger agent OF
the Baltimore and Ohio, said "What probably gave
rise TO the report is the fact that excursion IS being
advertised by the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern
Railroad from Cincinnati 10 Atlantic City, at rate Of
enc fare for the round trip. The Chesapeake and Ohio
has been running similar excursions from Cincinnati to
Old Point Comfort and tho Erie has been running them
from Cincinnati 10 Chautauqua Lake, Niagara Falls,
Toronto and the Thousand Islands. The Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern, believing that it should have tho
opportunities for sharing in the cheap excursion
business that It's competitors have taken, and there
being popular demand for excursion to the Jersey
coast decided TO excursion from Cincinnati TO
Atlantic City It's competitors have reason or Just
cause for using this action prceXt for demoralzng
the passenger rates In the Western territory and II they
do so, il is only another evidence of the midsummer
madness that sometimes afiCtS humanity when tho
dogstRr Is in the ascendant. The Baltimore and Ohio
has no desire either to provoke engage In rate war
with any of its neighbOrs.'

Sir: While so much IS being said from time q tmo
about the streets Of NewYork, surprised that no
has called attention to tho deplOrable state into
which the street signs have fallen. Since the intro
duction Of electric lighting many Of the lamps on
which formerly the names Of the street were placed
have been removed. / constantly hear people COM
plain that they cannot find their way about in tho
city In Paris the name Of every street. lane and alley
Is pnt at the corner Of every block and we surely
ought not TO lot the Frenchmen beat in this. The
Of the street is given upon tin plate, the letters
IN whito and the background IS of blue black 1t
may not be true Of New-York City that the govern
ment exists for the good Of the people STILL thousands
Of fellowcltizen believe in that OldfashiOned
theory Of government, and who pay the taxes and
bear the burdens ought to have an occasional some
thing to say about how shall spend orr money
l think, therefore, that the city government ought
to devote of Its time attention and money to the
work of putting the names Of the streets In such
venlen and conspicuous places that they may be seen
and read OF all men. PETER MACQUEEN.

RAILROAD INTERESTS.
A FIGHT OVER SALT RATES.

Chicago, Aug. 21.--A fight has broken ont Among
the roads east Of Chicago over salt rates. II came
abot through the sharp competition of the salt In
terests Of the Saginaw Valley tnd Cleveland both of
which have been for long time struggling to get
control Of the trade of the Chicago packers For
merly Saginaw Valley enjoyed dferental on this
traffic. but for the last six months the rate has been
the same from both points In spite of this equaliza-
ton, 1t appears that Saginaw salt did not lose the
foothold 1T had gained In Chicago but continued
practically TO monopoliIe the business.
On August ID a meeting of the salt committee Of
the Central Traffic Association held at Toledo and
proposition TO reduce the rate was considered No
agreement was reached and no action taken hut Il
Is now known that the very date Of this meeting
Cleveland parties sold to Chicago packers about 40 900
barrels of SALT and August 90 the Lake Shore nut
into effect reduced rate on that commodity from
Cleveland to Chicago. The rate Is 81 ton or
10 cents a barrel, drop of cents a barrel. Al
though the Lake Shore compiled with the law in is
suing It's reduced tariff It did not give the usual ten
days notice TO It's competitors and they are satisfied
that II had promised the Cleveland shippers prior
to the meeting of August ii, that the reduction
would be made.
The Michigan Central the Chicago and Grand Trunk
and the Flint and Pierre Marquette roads have given
notice that they will make the rate from saginaw
