In discussing the tidewater terminal
facilities OF the road, they stated:
1--WE shall not discriminate in favor
of any city as against any other. We
recognize the fact that Baltimore is
much nearer the south, and west than
Philadelphia, and that this city iS en-
titled, by virtue that, to considerat Ion
in the matter Of freight tarins. we also
take into consideration that vessels
must come 200 miles from the open sea
to reach Baltimore. Whatever may
have been the policy towards these cit
les IN the past, It Is our intention 20
haul all coal and other freight to bal-
would naturally come to this city un-
der an eduable adjustment OF rates. AS
far as we know, our terminals at Bal
timore are as good as at Philadelph MA,
and OF course there Is the extra haul Of
ninety miles to that city to be con-
sidered. will say that we have o de-
ferential In favor Of Baltimore. At the
same time we recognize that Philadel-
phia is the most northern terminus
OF the road, and Is entitled to all the
consideration which It's Importance as
seaport and as a traftic-producing ter
ritory deserves. AS we have already
stated, no partIality will be shown by
improperly dlverting traffic from any
city. Il Is also the intention of the
present management to deal as lib
eral as possible with steamship com
panies In order to secure the best tacll-
tiles for increasing and developing our
export businessS'
In reference to the grain trade:
I'm regard to the movement OF grain
to ports further south than Baltimore,
we have the right to make the same
rates on grain as the Chesapeake &
Ohio, for example. OF course, the dis
tance from the ocean to our own ter
minals at Baltimore Is much greater
than from Newport News or Norfolk,
as these cities are practically on the
Atlantic coast; but we shall not neBleet
this branch Of business any more than
any other through freight business; and
as the. Baltimore & Ohio still maintains
intimate relations with the Baltimore
& Ohio Southwestern, we have as many
advantages as at any time In the past
for obtaining our share OF such freight +"

BALTIMORE, Nd, March 27.-The
Manufacturers Record presents in de-
tail the first official announcement Of
the policy Of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road under its new administration. The
receivers, in special interview, have
outlined the policy which they intend
TO carry out In the management Of this
great property. Mr.. Murray was for
merly vice president of the Cleveland,
Cincinnati, Chicago & st. Louis Rail-
road, and is one Of the best known rail-
road officials Of the country, combining
aNthorough knowledge of the practical
and financial elements Of rallroadIng
with unusual executive ability and de-
termination. Mr.. Cowen is so well
known in this community that 1t is
needless to say that q combination OF
two such men as receivers of the Bal
tlmore & Ohio give assurance that the
broad policy which they have planned
will be carried out.
Replying to q question as to the policy
Of the Baltimore & Ohio regarding
freight traffic, Mr.. Murray said:
"We shall encourage the freight busl-
ness in every possible way. believe
that enough business can be secured
from the territory along the route to
operate the road on q profitable basis,
and that It is not absolutely necessary
to depend on what through business
may be received. / do not mean by this
to say that we shall not secure what
business we can from our connections
and from distant points. We want that
also, but we shall promote local traffic
wherever possible

County Seat right.

Redwood Falls, MINI. - The alter
nate writ of mandamus on E. E. Cook,
clerk of courts for Renville county,
VAS argued, Cook being represented
by Olivia and Glencoe attorneys, who
presented an affidavit from him in
which he commended that Beaver Falls
was never the county seat; that to his
knowledge ]. E. Smith, upon whose
affidavit the writ was issued, was not
freebooter or resident of Renville
county; that there are no vaults or
safes at Beaver Falls for the safe
keeping of records; that the commits
sioner still recognize Olivia as the
county seat. John Lind, for Beaver
Falls, moved to Quash the affidavit on
the ground that it was q sham and
frivolous. He cited two special legis-
lative acts recognizing Beaver Falls
as the county seat. Olivia then con-
tended that the free holding of
Smiths having been brought into dis
pute would necessitate a jury trial.
The court took the case under advise

A Ma mmoth Cave.

City Engineer Scott has just COM
pleted an extensive survey of Wind
Cave. the great underground world
situated II miles from this city. He
was engaged seven days in the work
and as result OF his investigations q
map OF the interior of the cave will be
printed, thus giving explorers in the
cave an exact knowledge of their
whereabouts. Another object of the
survey was to discover an exit, so that
the necessity of retraveling the same
ground to the entry would be avoided.
An excellent place for an exit was dis
covered, only little blasting being
necessary to find open air. Wind
Cave of Hct Springs already has 81
miles of explored passages.
