TO a Reduction of Freight and Pas
senger Rates, and there is Fight in
Sight-The Brownsville Company to
Build New steamer for the Trade
Nellie Hudson aud Florence Belle
start Next Week.
The freeing of the Monongahela
locks promises TO work more than one
benefit to the general public. Besides
saving the regularly established line IA
large amount in tolls, which it is an
nounced win be divided with the pub
lie, free locks will allow any number
of small steamboat owners TO enter
the up-river trade and competition of
a brisk kind always means cheaper
rates for travel and the shipment of
goods.
That this is SO is shown by the fact
that the Pittsburg, Brownsville and
Geneva Packet company, owning and
operating the Morgantown packets
James G. Blaine and Adam Jacobs, is
preparing to make things pretty lively
in the up-riyer trade from now on.
The officials of the Brownsville
Packet company stated that the free
ing OF the river netted the company
something like 81, 900 per month in
tolls heretofore paid the navigation
company, and they were going to give
their friends and patrons part of the
good thing. This was the company's
explanation Of the contemplated re-
duction. but the friends of the oppo-
sition boats Of the Hudson Bros, said
it was to be a game OF freeze-out on
them. Yesterday it was announced
that the Florence Belle and Nellie
Hudson, the boats of the new opposi-
tion line. would get started ON We'd
nesday Of this week, and some very
lively times are looked for when the
two lines get to bucking one another.
Almost simultaneous with this an
nouncement came the statement from
the general Office Of the Pittsburg.
Brownsville and Geneva Packet com
pany at Brownsville that the board OF
directors had met and made general
reduction in the freight and passen-
ger tariffs of the company. The fur
ther statement was given out that the
company would at once build new
boat for the line. The company may
put on boats each way, giving double
service from Pttsburg to Morgan
town.
The cut In rates announced by the
board of directors Is so cents for the
round trip between Pittsburg and Nor
gantown for passengers, which makes
the round trip rate, including meals,
$3.50 On this basis the rates to
all way points will be fixed. The re-
duetion in freight rates is l2l per
centum, from the present tariff, to
take effect as soon as the board can
make out new rate sheet. BY a
unanimous vote the directors decided
to advertise for bids for the building
of fast new packet for the up
river trade, to run in place Of the
Blaine or the Jacobs whenever ncccS-
sary to lay one Of them up, and in case
the opposition became serious to make
regular trips between the other boats.
In the meantime Capt. II. p. and
Capt. ]. S. Hudson have, as was an
nounced in the Times, secured the
Patterson wharf boat, and on We'd
nesday next will start their independ-
ent boats. Capt. Fl. p. Hudson sta
ted that he would not cut under any
rates made by the old line, but that
they would promptly meet any and
all reductions in the prices.

The Parkersburg Journal gives us
the assurance that Prof. John D.
Sweeney was removed from the princi-
palship of the Concord Normal school
because he was an active and partisan
Democrat. This reason was doubtless
sufficient to cause his removal, but it
does not injure Prof. Sweeney's repu-
tation as teacher and school man,
and places him early in the field as the
Democratic nominee for State Super
intendent of Free Schools in 1900.
Keep your eye on Sweeney. - Index.

For tho Persons Named.

Shortly after the cyclone at Grady Messrs. Frank Williams and V. O. Alexander raised a subscription among their friends in this city tc aid the following cyclone sufferers Mesdames E. J. Hall, l.. H. Swan. son and E. Cole, with their tenants. The petition for the subscriptions read as follows:
 "We, the undersigned, give the amounts opposite our names to helI the parties that were in the cyclone near, Gaady, as follows: Mrs. E. J. Hall, Mrs. L. H. Swanson, Mrs. E. Cole and their tenants, who had all of their houses, furniture and fenc- ing, etc, almost totally destroyed, and unless they get some assistance they will not be able to make a crop"
 By this petition being circulated $155 was raised and Mr. Williams informed our reporter that he turned the money over to Mrs. Swanson, to be divided among the sufferers named. Mr. Williams says that there seems to be some misunder- standing, among certain parties, as to whom the fund was intended for. He says that it was simply for the sufferers named in the petition, and not for the cyclone sufferers gener ally.
