I WILL SETTLE IN NEW JERSEY,
I will settle in New Jersey,
/ will rest myself in peace;
From the labors Of high Office
I will fnd a glad release.
I have served my country largely,
Shot ducks and catfish caught,
The welfare of other nations
With persistence / have sought.
I will settle in New Jersey,
I, the glory and the pride;
But before I go to Princeton
I must have one more free ride.
I will board the Lighthouse Tender"
With my shotgun on my knee,
And let my whiskers mingle
With the z9phyrs of the sea.
I will settle in New Jersey,
And with Congress" off my hands, "
l will dignity old Princeton
She's loud in her demands
For the most progressive statesman
This world has YER eeen,
Who would kill a young republic
To install q negro Queen.
/ will settle in New Jersey,
I, the ponderOus person, Me,
Yes L, the greatest lest
And the Meest of the Me.
I will make the college fathers feel
The vastness of my loro,
And impress my largeness largely
On the ardent Sophomore.
I will settle in New Jersey,
1, the only patriot;
T have told the silly Cuban
That his cause is simply rot,
That the Spaniard is his master,
And he never can be free;
And I've sent my warships many
To enforce my just decree.
So I'll settle in New Jersey,
I, the p%onderous person, Me,
And what the country loses
Will Princeton gain in Me.
I will ''rest upon my ~laurels,"
For I'm satisfied within,
/ have done the world great service
And I've horded up the tin.

NO RATE CUTTING IN SIGHT.
BELIEF THAT RATES WILL BE MAINTAINED
TALKS WITH RAILROAD MEN.

There is no sign of an outbreak Of rate-cutting
among the railroads as result OF the United States
S,nreme Court decision in the Trans Missouri
Freight Association case.
c. ID. Smonson general Eastern agent or the
Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. said yes
terday: Il have been trying to-day to find out II
rate cutting has been dore in the East or the West
and have failed absolutely to locate single in
stance have received explicit instructions not to
deviate from the published tariff rate. no matter
what our competitors may do. 1t is my opinion
that. Notwithstanding the dissolution Of the asso-
Citations rates will be maintained. but If they are
reduced il will nOt be secretly. but by open tariff
The best test Of the maintenance OF rates is that
we are getting business to-day at ful tariff rates
that we would not obtain II shippers saw any
chance of rate Generalization.
William II. Clark general Eastern freight agent
of TN, Missouri Pacific Railway said The Sl-
preme Court decision makes II Illegal for the rail-
roads 10 associate together for the purpose Of main
tanning rates, which l. construed TO mean no re-
straint of traffic Therefore. having withdrawn
from such association. II would be just as Illegal
for them enter into any Generalization OF rates.
because that would mean TO make any rat" neces-
sary under the circumstances. regardless OF pub
lished tariff. Railroad companies all realize that
enter into any war ot rates AT the present time
without the restraining influence of a proper
ISOLATION to help them to recover their normal con
ditlon would mean dire disaster. not only TO the
revenue but to the personnel Of the lines There
fore there is not the slightest prospect OF any rate
Generalization at present
