NO REDUCTIONS TO CHICAGO.
The Railroad Companies Think They
win Have Plenty of Business.

NEW York, Dec. 1.-THE railroad
rates between this city and Chicago dur
Ing the Worlds fair will not be reduced
below the present limit This has been
determined by the Trunk Line presi-
dents, seconded by the general passenger
agents. Tho reason given is that the
roads willhave their facilities taxed to
the utmost at present rates and it would
be folly to make reduction which
would overtax them, making those whom
they can accommodate uncomfortable,
to say nothing of the dissatisfaction cer-
tain 10 be caused by the lack Of accom-
mediation.
1t is the intention to provide for from
90 to IS per cent additional business and
any increase of equipment largely be-
yond what subsequent business will
warrant, represents that much money
wasted. Some of the lines conducting q
heavy excursion business in summer in
tend to exclude it entirely, that rolling
stock may be devoted to Worlds fair
business.
In contemplation Of the rush both the
Pullman and Wagner car companies
have been for months running their

pect to reach anywhere near the number
of cars required. .....
One OF the eastern railroads has been
allotted but twenty-five sleeping cars adj
ditional, when fifty would hardly be
enough, but protests have availed moth
ing Other lines will suffer likewise.
All lines will run slow trains at re-
duced rates, but they will of necessity
be made up of ordinary day coaches.

agent of the New York Central and
about 800, 900 passengers will be carried
to Chicago and back by the Eastern
trunk lines during the 240 days covering
the term of the Worlds fair AMI the

Killed Accidentally.

Mrs. Warfield, who lives near Anti
och Church, was i'll on Friday of last
week and expressed a wish for a
young squirrel to eat, when Mason
Warfeld, her 12-year-old son, and
Ohas. Shannon, young man aged
about 10 years, who was visiting the
house, got down 32-calibre rifle and
started out to kill one for her. The
two had gone some distance from the
house and were sitting down in the
woods Watching for squirrel, Shan
non holding the rifle in his lap, when
the weapon was discharged aoci-
dentally, the ball striking young
Warfield in the head and killing him
instantly. Young Shannon came to
this city, stated the facts and surren-
dered himself to Deputy Constable
II. Davis Harrod, who held him in
custody until the next morning, when
Coroner Dehoney went out and held
an inquest on the body, and the evil
-dence showing that the shooting was
accidental, the jury brought in yer
dict to that effect, and Shannon was
dismissed.

General George u. Hodge
Dead.

For many years General George B.
Hodge, of Longwood, has been con-
spicuous resident of Orange county.
He came from Kentucky, was a
brigadier general in the Confederate
army, and the only one Of that rank
residing in Orange county, Gen. S.
G. French, of Winter Park, ranking
one degree higher.
Last Monday morning Gen. Hodge
was in Longwood, did some shopping,
after which he left for his home a
short distance from the village. That
night, soon after dark, Mr.. George
Greenwood started into Longwood
for his mail, and when within half a
mile of town he found the body OF
Gen. Hodge lying in the road, cold in
death. Several PAGES from where
the body was, lay the basket contain
ing packages of merchandise that
the deceased had purchased that
morning and had started home with.
The body was taken charge of by
the proper authorities, an inquest
was held, and the coIoner's verdict
was that death resulted from natural
causes.
The deceased was very aged and
decrepid. He was lawyer of ac-
knowledged ability.-Sottth Florida
Sentinel, Aug. 8.
Gen. Hodge was Representative
from Campbell county in the Legis-
lature of 1853 $50, and will be remem-
bered by our older citizens as lead
ing politician of that day.
