began an investigation to determine what in

is only fair to assume that Mr.. Peck expected

Democracy.
In the course of the campaign now ended
Commissioner Peck published a preliminary re-

found, or suspected, that some papers in Mr.

Of Congressman which he has held for year

thing in itself in view of his recent statement

BY making low rates. Their presidents must
be credited with knowing their own business,
but tho business community and the public
generally will be certain to regard yesterdays
action as mistake. According to this, the
present rates will be maintained on all fast
trains while on trains scheduled at more than
thirty-ive hours between New-York and Chi
cago reduction of 20 per cent will be made.
This action may not be final at all events,
various collateral questions remain to be dis
posed of. In view of the heavy traffic that
