THE RAILWAYS.
The Terms of the Presidents Agreement
Disregarded by Gould.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1S-Since the last meet
ing of the Western Traffic association.
and particularly since the Burlington filed
its ninety days notice OF withdrawal. it
has been generally conceded in railroad
circles that the organization is on the
verge of dissolution. Additional evidence
of this has just been furnished by the
Gould lines in their failure to send reports
to the meeting of the board of commission
ers which was held here today. The meet
ing was called especially TO hear argu-
ments and testimony in cases appealed
from the Transcontinental and Transmits
souri, associations. and yet neither the
Union Pacific nor the Missouri Pacific was
represented in any manner. The inference
is that Gould regards the presidents
agreement as dead letter and Will take
no part in the apparently helpless efforts
to keep the Western Traffic association
alive.
There has been some talk about lay
ing complaints before the interstate COM
merce commission against the general
passenger agents who are accused Of deal
ing with ticket brokers, and so discrimnat-
ing against the general public. A local
paper. iu publishing this gossip. intimated
that the competitors OF the Atchison
would probably insist on making "A COM
plant against that com pany. Assistant
Traffic Manager Byrke of the Atchison,
said, to-day:
1--WE have been compelled TO reduce our
tariffs because OF the illegal method of our
competitors in dealing with scalpers. but
we have lii every case made the reduction
open and above board, and the only result
of IN investig ttion might be TO make our
competitors abide by the law. as we do"
While the Missouri Pacific positively
denies the charge of the Chicago aud Alton
that is made, an effort to make, IA four
dollar round-trip rate between st. Louis
aud Kansas City, it asked for time in
which 10 answer more fully the charge of
tue Alton. Pending thus final answer,
the Alton will take no steps to meet Tie
reduction from ST. Louis.
NEW YORK, Aug 1S-The dispatch from
DeDison, Tex, reporting an increase ia
the capital stock Of the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas Railway Company II Texas, and
q new bond issue, Is explaiLed by the
officials here as follows: IL Is "A Texas
corporation of which the entire capital
stock is owned by the Missouri. Kansas
and Texas railway company, and Is de-
posted with the Central Trust company
of New York for the benefit OF this COM
pany. II does not mean an increase OF the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas stock listed
on the exchange, but is simply action ia
conformity with the statute Of 1891, which
placed the lines in Texas under separ ate
organized in that stale a. an
adjustment OF the dispute between the
and the state authorities.

form committee. The majority report
favored the free and snnlimited coinage of
silver; endarsed Cieseland and Stevenson,
and recomme nded state banks of issue,
which would be preferable to the sub
treasury plan.
The report was bitterly. fought By the
Clark delegates remaining in the Hogg
convention. who ehampioned the minority
report, indorsing the Chicago platform.
which, II adopted, would deprive Governor
Hogg OF the support OF several third PARTY
men upon whom he is depending.
Pending motion to adopt the minority
report an adjournment WAS taken.
The Hogg convention met this morning
and adopted the majority report OF the
platform committee On the adoption of
the document the delegates from Dallas,
Tarrant and Washington counties walked
ont, and doubtless affiliated with the
Clark people.
James 5. Hogg was then put in nomina-
tion and the balloting took place. with no
other names before the convention.
The vote stood: Hogg, 697; Clark, lOS1S
scattering. 81
The Clark faction completed a ticket,
which is as follows: For governor, George
Clark; Lieutenant governor, c. W. Rogers;
of Travis; treasurer, J. L. Gorse of Chero-
kee; attorney general, G. A. Meadowell OF
Cargill; comptroller, Charles Gillespie OF
Dallas; superintendent of public lnstrue-
tion. Jacob Becker of Galveston.
The Clark faction say that the silver
plank adopted by the Hogg fiction is in
direct opposition to the national conven-
tion's views and will cause many of Hogg'S
followers to flock to the Clark camp.

THE RArTLEsNAKE,S rAiL.
How the Reptiles Warning Rattle ID
Produced.

no" the fscptle's warning Rattle .
Produced.
The structure from which the rattle
snake takes his name-the rattle-con-
slsts mainly of three or more solid,
horny rings, placed around the end OF
the tail These rings themselves, says
the Quarterly Review, are merely dence
portions of the general outer skin Of
the body, but the rattle has also solid
foundation OF bone, for the three Last
bones of the tail become united to-
gether in one solid whole or core,
grooved where the bones join, while
they increase in size toward the hinder
end of the complex bone thus formed
This bony core is invested by skin also
marked by grooves, which correspond
with those at the functions of the three
bones, and this skin becomes much
thiclzened. and so forms an incipient.
imperfect rattle of sneh young snakes
as have not yet cast their skin. When
it Ia cast the skin investing the tail
close to its termination is not cast off,
but is held fast By the enlarged end Of
the bony core before mentioned
The piece of skin thus retained be-
comes loose ring IN front Of the incip-
lent rattle, and thus forms n first joint
or ring of the future perfect rattle
The same process is repeated at each
molt, fresh loose ring or additional
joint to the perfec. rattle being thus
formed every time the skin Is shed
Thus the perfect rattle comes ultimate
" to consist of a number of dry. hard.
more or less loose, horny rings, and in
this way a rattle may consist Of as
many rs twenty-one co-existing rattling
rings II is the shaking Of these rings
by violent and rapid wagginy Of the
end of the snakes tail which produces
the celebrated rattling sound--a sound
which may be compared 10 the rattliag
of a number of peas in a rapidly shaken
paper bag.

throng behind, and a scattering followed.
The troops pursued wit active bayonets,
and many legs in East Buffalo today are
doubtless bandaged in remembrance OF
Captain Nellis' charge. The soldiers say
that they never before heard such
blasphemy as was uttered by the taupting
throng, and also after it had becamea hy-

Preparations of a suggestive character
were made today at the Fitch hospital.
Over twenty cots with bedding have been

modations at the Fitch for forty wounded
men, and even more il necessary. The am
balances from the Fitch hospital Will re-
port At headquarters for service, and Will
remain at the Williams street crossing all
night.

'T wish you would call attention to the
food we are getting. If our friends at

starVe. This morning each had sllce OF
bread. one banana, one cup of coffee and
one tent this morning there were five OF
us and one blanket"
Colonel Welch of the Sixty-ffth was in
command at the camp. He said:
''Trains have been made up in the yard
all morning, and there has been no inter
ference with the men at work We have
had few little skirmishes with gathering
crowds, who have been bothering the
troops good deal, taunting them and an

serious we sent out detachments and dis

A large force of soldiers was found
camped on DingeDs street. guarding the
