RECENT j. T. "A. RULINGS
THEY CONFORM STRICTLY TO THE
INTERSTATE COMMERCE ACT.
minus Report of and In
nOres IA Ruling of the J.. T.. A.

Col. s. f. Gray. division freight agent of
the Pennsylvania lines, in commenting on
the action of the Joint Traffic Association
on the matter OF carload freights. said that
their ruling was a correct, business-like
step. The present method was a clear
evasion of the act and
the ruling Of the board of managers of
the Joint Traffic Association was in strict
conformity to the law. To illustrate: The
Diamond Match Company. of Akron, o..
under the new ruling. il it has a carload
Of matches TO be distributed among the
merchants of indianapolis. the car must
be billed, say. TO Schnull * Co. the Match
the parties among whom the matches are
TO be distributed. Mr.. Schnull pays the
freight and notifies the firms that their
matches are at such a depot and on his
order the agent at the station will deliver
the goods. Under the custom OF late years
the car is billed TO the agent of the road,
who must notify the firms and take their
receipts as they appear for the goods. and
the agent and the company are wholly re-
sponsible for the goods and their correct
delivery. Under the new rule the car. if
loaded with freight for various persons, is
billed as a carload of freight to one firm.
and it is no evasion of the interstate-com-
merce law in the matter of less than car
load freights. One of the provisions of this
ruling or the Joint Traffic Association
which is objected to most seriously is that
a car must be loaded and billed ont the
same day. Most of the roads are acting
very honorably in the matter of allowing
the goods TO be unlcaded and distributed
from the car. providing the consignee has
the car emptied by the time the Car-serv-
Ice association requires.

Falling OFF in the Volume of Business in
Stocks Yesterday.

Falling OFF in the Volume of Business in
Stocks Yesterday.
New York, March 25.-There was a
material falling off in the volume Of
business at the stock exchange to-day.
Speculation throughout was feverish
and unsettled and the tendency of
prices was downward Professional
operators generally were arrayed on
the short side Of the account, but here
and there evidences were plain of COW
ering by important interests.
One broker supposed to be connected
with Keene interests bought 5000
shares of Sugar and 1900 shares of
Jersey Central. These purchases, how
ever. had little influence on the general
market. London also turned up as a
Liberal buyer of st. Paul and other
stocks, taking fully 5000 shares of the
former. Local traders ignored these
DEVELOPMENTS and at each advance put
out moderate lines.
The decision of the United States SUI
preme court In the case of the Trans
Missouri Freight association Is still the
main bear argument, and operators for
lower prices seem to be quite confident
that in the end the courts rulings will
result in general decentralization of
railway rates.
A rumor from Washington that bill
permitting pooling by the roads would
shortly be introduced received little
credit in usually we'll Informed quarters
in view of the fate Of the Patterson
measure.
The pressure to sell was most pro-
nounced in the grangers, Reading and
Northern Pacifics. These issues drop
ped anywhere from "a to per cent
Burlington and Quincy, Reading First
preferred, Northwest, Rock Island and
st. Paul scored the severest losses.
| In the industrials Sugar advanced to
1885, and the stock commanded a
small premium for use. This alarmed
| the bears, but after the smaller shorts
| had covered the price dropped back to
112K. Leather preferred showed weak
ness in the late trading selling down to
57A, a loss Of u per cent. Speculation
| left off weak in tone.
| Net changes show losses of A@1h
per cent, Burlington and Quincy and

haitian, Western Union and Rubber pre-
ferred gained A@1B per cent.
The bond market was lower to-day.

A FROZEN SNAKE FOR A CANE

What was intended for a Joke came
near ending seriously yesterday after
noon for DR.. Orville L. Boor, a veterin-
airy surgeon, who is treasurer of the
Indiana Veterinary Graduates Associa-
ton. During a severe cold spell, several
days ago, he went to the home of Rob
ert A. johnson, in the country, on a
professional call. While there Mr.
Johnson found in the snow black
snake frozen stiff and apparently life
less. He took the reptile to DR.. Boo1
and said: Here is a nice walnut cane
carved in shape Of a snake DR.. Boor
took it gratefully and put it in his bug
gy without examining it closely, as he
was in hurry. He put his horse and
buggy in McLaln's livery stable, and
thought no more of his "cane" until
yesterday. when he went to his buggy
and found blacksnake coiled on the
seat. very angry at being disturbed. His
snakeship had thawed out in the warm
livery stable and was apparently as
much alive as he ever was. Dr.. Boo1
was frightened and fed precipitately
The snake saw his opportunity and
escaped.-Indianap News.

THE PRESS CLUB SMOKER.

Members of the New Haven Press

ceedingly pleasant evening at the Press

of knights of the pencil. Among those
present were many well known business
and professional men of the city. AL

LEGISLATIVE oRATORY.

Description of the Talking to be Found
in the Present Households About
Some Of Those Who Speak.
In debating ability this house is
not equal to its predecessor of the
session of 1895. This fact does not nee
essarily imply that as a legislative
body it is the inferior of the two. In
deed, it may mean that it is the more
cautious and careful. But since we
cannot have legislation without
speeches. one likes to hear good
speeches. To be sure, it would be bet
ter to get along with legislative work
without speeches, but that is idealis-
tic, and it would be too much to ex-
pect the legislature of Connecticut to
be ideal We miss from the debates in
the house this year the brilliancy of
Mr. George NJ Gum, who represented
Milford two years ago. Mr.. Gum has
a natural aptitude for legislative work
and is equally at home in the thick
of a debate, stating a proposition with
remarkable lucidity, or answering an
opponent with matchless skill, or sit
ting with colleagues at committee
hearing listening to dreary speeches
from people with grievances, fancied
or real He is an all-round legisla-
tor The houses misses, too, the calm
measured utterances frigidly precise,
of Mr. Gardiner Greene of Norwich.
The master of epigram and dry hui
NOR in the house is Mr.. Williams Of
Salisbury, who was one of the leading
members of the last house. He can
be trenchant without being offensive,
an art which every debater hasn't
acquired but which every one who de-
bates should learn. Mr.. Williams
draws his SMILES and illustrations
from a variety of sources, from the
Book of Proverbs to the latest catch
phrase. The leader of the house, Mr..
Roraback of North Canaan. is a We
hement speaker almost always, and
can be slashing when the occasion re-
quires it. He was too good natured
to be domineering, though the tone of
his voice and the force of his gesture at
times would leave him open to the sus-

TOM MooRE's ADMIRERS PROTEST.
They Want His Name Among the Immortal
Bnrdn In the Congregational LIbrary.

wA]sHISGToN, Oct. 1.-Admirers of Tom
Moore. tho Irish poet. are displeased because
his name has been omitted from I c list of bards
whose memory is to be perpetuated in tablets
on the walls OF the new library OF Congress, and
the local division Of the Ancient Order Of Hiber-
mans has started a movement TO try and per-
suade Congress at the coming session to supply
the omission. Assistant Librarian Spofford,
who was Librarian when the honors were dis
tributed, said to-day:
The poets corridor in the new library con-
tains the names OF twelve poets Of renown, six
of American, three of English. two of French,
and one OF German. Moore's name was sub
mitted as one OF the English bards TO be hon
ored. but it was decided by the Committee of
Award that Moorc's merits as a poet were not
so great as TO entitle him to this marked dis
%tinction. He held high rank as a melodist, but
did not possess the poetic fire to such lofty de-
gree as did Byron, or Shelley, or Browning. who
represent England's poetic fame on tho library
memorial tablets. Cowper and others equally
distinguished were rejected with Moore. and no
consideration weighed with the commission
except a desire to do equal Justice TO the fame
Of the poets"
