The roads of the Central Passenger Com
mittee. in session in Chicago, have finished
their meeting without doing anything of
Importance. The bulk OF the business that
was scheduled for consideration was large
ly of n routine nature and of no interest
save TO the roads directly involved. Dur
ing the meeting a resolution was offered
declaring that the committee should here
after. when reduced rates are granted for
any meeting or convention. keep these
rates secret from all except those di-
rectly interested. the object OF the secrecy
being to prevent the brokers from gain
ing any knowledge of the proposed rates
and consequently putting them in q posi-
ton where they would not be able 10 man
ipulate the rates to any extent. The reso-
luton was debated at considerable length
and IL was decided that 1t was out of the
question to keep the rates a secret when
they must of necessity be known TO so
many people. The resolution was then
Withdrawn and The Old rule OF publication
of the rates will be followed in the future.
The roads OF the Central Passenger Com
mittee have issued their Instructions re-

tended for the return when the holder can

The barn and outbuildings of DIR. J. Rine-
hart, at Frizsllburg, were burned between 8
and 10 o'clock on Tuesday night. The barn
was 62 by 10 feet, and contained FIVE tous of
hay, one ton of straw, 40 bushels of corn,
bushels of wheat, carriage harness, lot of
farming implements and other articles, also
horses. Nearly all the contents, except the
horses, were destroyed with the barn. In the
hog pen were four fat hogs, weighing about
400 pounds each, and one Of these was badly
scorched before it was gotten out.
The fire was discovered by Mrs. Arthur,
DR.. Rinehart's daughter, about $50 o'clock.
She Immediately gave an alarm, and went to
the barn. When she got there burning hay
and straw were falling from the loft above,
some falling on the horses, scorehing them
considerably. The neighbors gathered quick
ly, and the ringing of the church bell brought
very large crowd TO the rescue. They
could do nothing toward saving the barn, but
the dwelling was in danger from sparks, and
was afre several times, doing damage to the
amount of about 800. The porches, doors
and window frames had TO be kept wet to
save them, and DIR. Rinehart desires the
ADVOCATE to return his thanks to all who as
sisted in saving his property.
DR.. Rinehart and Mr.. Pittinger had their
faces burned while working at the fire. Miss
Susan Graybill, Mrs. Rinehart's aunt, was
taken TO the house of neighbor. She started
to go out 10 look at the fire, went to the wrong
door and fell down the cellar steps, injuring
one of her limbs severely.
