the grand orchestra we quote from the
Sun as follows: Full almost to the
point of surfeit as has been the present
musical season in New York. it was yet
with feelings of genuine regret that all
true lovers of orchestral music last
night babe farewell for a season to the
Boston Symphony orchestra. The Bos-

conductor unto conductor, and, under
whatever conditions of leadership still
remains the standard by which al
other like musical bodies must b.
measured in this country.

way that he could make it.
He was born, April II, 1870, and has
always lived in Augusta, having at

which lines were able to obtain slight
ly better terms.
The railways then, In order to make
the situation as obnoxious as possible
and force return to the old situation,
II seems has put on a charge of 81
per car. which represents a net profit
of Sl.20 per car to all lines with the
exception a the Illinois Central and
Chicago Northwestern,
Railway people claim that the hog
gishness of the stock yards people Is
responsible for the situation. and while
II may be to 4 great extent, two Texas
lines with Chicago terminals are COM
Ing in for a great deal of censdre in the
matter.
1t win be remembered that the Santa
Fe. which is one OF the lines referred
to. while In the hands OF receiver and
under the Jurisdiction OF the Federal
court, attempted to ineugurate these
charges, but Judge Groscup ruled that
such action was Illegal, and thus pre-
vented the scheme going through. 1t
Is stated that one of the first acts OF
the Santa te after reorganization was
effected and 1t had passed from under
the control OF the Federal court was to
again attempt to put on these charges,
and II seems that In this Instance II
has done so with marked success.
OF course the railways seek Justin
cation OF their action in that of the
stock yards company. but stockmen
claim that either of the Texas lines
with Chicago terminals could have
prevented the action by simply refusing
To become a party to II. They cite the
fact. too. that Texas lines with St
Louis and Kansas City terminals take
care OF any charges OF this kind by
absorbing them. Take, for instance,
the st. Louis market. and there are
really charges there OF 81 per car. but
the railways pay them and the shipper
has nothing to do with them. Such an
arrangement also exists at Kansas
City, and shippers cannot understand
why Chicago, the largest market OF
the country. should geek to exact 81
per car on oil business going there.
These matters are cliciting great
deal OF comment among clippers and
there Is no doubt but great deal OF
business will he diverted from Chicago
when tho new rule goes into effect
The average shipper feels himself suf-
ficiently mt the mercy of the Chicago
market already. without going down
