WORLDS FAIR RATES.
Railroads May Yet Do Almost Unlimited
Cutting.

,. NEW YORK, April 1S.-A morning pa
per says: There may yet be trouble ov-
er the question of rates and the form of
tickets for the Worlds Fair passenger
traffic.
An agreement has been entered into
by the Eastern trunk lines and their
Western connections it is true, but some
doubts are expressed about the ability
of certain railroad companies to live up
to that agreement.
Some correspondence on this subject
has passed between D. l. Roberts, gen
eral passenger agent of the Erie, and
Col. Aldace F. Walker, chairman of the
joint executive committee of the
Trunk Lines and Central Traffic Associ-
ationS.
The Erie railway wants more definite
understanding with regard to the in
tentions of two OF three of the trunk
lines concerning the existing agree
ment.
''If all of the roads interested are not
going to live I'D to the agreement, what
is the use of having an agreement" Mr..
Roberts asks.
Among the stipulations contained in
the recently formed agreement for the
Worlds Fair passenger traffic are
two which already show signs of disso-
luton.
One is that there shall be no deviation
from the schedule of rates agreed upon,
and the other is that round-trip tickets
shall carry no stop-over privileges.
1t is alleged that the New York Cen
trail and the West Shore railroads have
contracts-signed, sealed and advertised
which will nullify the two provisions
mentioned. These contracts are for the
running of special trains between New
York and Chicago at special rates. Two
series Of excursion trains out of this
city and one out of Boston have been ar
ranged, and in each case the passengers
will have the privilege Of stopping off at
Niagara Falls for few hours.
Railroad companies, such as the Penn
sylvania and Erie, which have made no
special contracts for the Worlds fair
business complain that the effectiveness
of the agreement will be destroyed if the
New York Central and the West Shore
roads are permitted to carry out their
special contracts, and Col Walker has
been requested to call for a special meet
ing of the joint executive committee this
week to consider the matter.
One prominent railroad man said yes
terday: IF. all the roads are not going
to live up to the agreement strictly, then
the agreement will be dead letter. and
there will be q general scramble for
business. If such a state of things
should arise there will be no limit to the
rate cutting. A trip to Chicago will be
cheap enough to satisfy the most
economical mind.''

cur some time in September, but the

residing out of the state. The purpose
is to interest the sportsmen and those
who seek 1.-THE happy hunting grounds
OF Maine to contribute toward the pro-
tectiye work to be undertaken by the
associat' on. President Eugene M Her
sey has a list of 1000 names OF those who
come to Maine from other states during
the summer who it is believed will
take pride in contributing to the associ-
alton. The association agrees to spend
every dollar 50 received in the propaga-

by any one person he will become an
honorary member Of the association.
Augusta despatch says: The latest
rumor is that the Augusta post office
row may be compromised by the appoint
ment OF Oscar Holway, Esq. the flour
king, as postmaster. Mr. Holway is not
saying much about it. He is as shrewd
as he IS bland and never goes about with
brass band to advertise his plans. He
can give some of the boys points in prac
tlcal pohflcs, but doubt very much if
he wants the post office himself.

Advice to a would Be LAWYER.

A correspondent asks, ''How would
you advise a young man of moderate
means, desiring to become lawyer, to
proceed" We would advise him not to
proceed. Of course if he shows signs of
becoming a good and great lawyer, he
might properly borrow money, make his
way to the bar and repay the loan as he
can. But for most men of moderate cir
cumstances who seek, as you do, ''free
legal education, our advice is to give UP
the idea. There are enough poor law
yers now. There are too many lawyers,
for that matter. Very few can do more
than earn their salt New York Sun.

A SUIT PROBABLE IN THE METHODIST
CHURCH.
tits reported that the Methodist church
of the place is liable to have a lawsuit to
fight at no distant day. The facts as re-
ported are as follows: members of the
church made fancy quilt, and then
made the proposition that any one desir-
ing his name on square in the quilt
could have it worked for stipulated
sum. The report has gone out that the
quilt was presented to the pastor with
out a name on it, also that they obtained
some over $50. Much indignation is
expressed and threats of prosecution are
made for obtaining money under false
pretences.

Officer Giroux, who patrols the lower

peck of trouble.
Everyone knows Peter Johnson az q
queer, harmless fellow who is always get
ting into hot water. He was around as
usual last evening and shortly before 8
O'Clock was walking up North Main
street.
As he was passing Lctti's fruit store he
picked up few chestnuts and couple OF
Italians came out and pounced on him.
He was thrown down and quite badly
beaten.
A crowd gathered and officer Glroux
came up. He took hold OF Pete, but did
not start towards the station with him. II
seemed az though he was going to send
him home.
He either let 60 OF him or Pete broke
away; anyway, Pete ran down toward
Main street and the officer followed him.
Pete stopped and as the officer came up
ne lodged to one side and Giroux struck
him a terrible blow on top of the head
with his club. Pete dropped like a log
and In a moment was covered with blood.
He was taken to the station
DIR. Lane happened to be there or the
fellow might have bled to death. There
was long scalp wound that required I've
stitches. cut over his eye and several
others. In all, eleven stitches were taken.
This lmorning he presented "a horrible
sight.
Everyone who saw the trouble says the
officer acted rashly and Councilman Len

Captain Francis Conlon, Joseph Billing

said 1t was entirely wrong.

Teller Gave Up Week Ago.
Mr.. Teller is well nigh exhausted by his
song vigil and hard work In the senate
since the silver fight began. He has not
been hopeful of the silver cause for a
month, and he has regarded the end as
near since the time IA week ago yesterday
when the silver men made their effort To
secure an adjournment instead Of "A recess,
and found they could only muster 10 or IL
votes.
Senator Voorhees, said that he was
hopeful of reaching the voting stage In
two days, and the opinion is general that
the bill will he well discussed before the
end OF the week. IL Is not believed by any
one that half the "a amendments proposed
will be regularly offered The silver men
will probably discuss some Of these amend
ments under the five-minute rule, but IL is
not expected that there will be a great
deal Of debate on the amendments.
There is already talk Of future silver
legislation. One of the leading advocates
OF repeal is quoted as saying that he will
Introduce "A free coinage bill upon the as
sembling of the regular session. Senator
Sherman said that he was contemplating
the introduction Of bond bill, and that it
would probably incidentally make some
provision for the use of silver. Many
other senators have financial bills in con-
temptation.
The outlook is indeed good that the
regular session will be flooded with finan-
cial bills, aud no one need he surprised il
the Fifty-third congress should develop a
record Of financial discussion almost as
important as the one now closing
A canvass of senatorial opinion this
morning brought out the fact that the
opinion was almost unanimous that vote
