II. and D.

Statement of the Receivers of the
II. and D.
Regarding the charges of rate cutting
against the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
the receivers fo.' the company have sent a
long letter to the interstate commerce COM
mission, pledgng the company to adhere to
the PUBLISHED schedule of rates, and sug-
gestLS "A plan to prevent cutting. After
setting forth the reasons which actuateji
the company in departing from the sched-
uC, the receivers say:
I'VE see TO "eason why the commission
should refuse its aid 10 the carriers in IN
effort to prevent competition from taking
the form of Illegal concessions through Sc
cret rates drawbacks, rebates and other
devices; and see no reason why the
carriers should not seek the aid of the COM
mission in such an effort by reporting to
the commission any departure from pub
lished rates, to the end that the facts may
be fully ascertained and the Illegal practice
stopped.
The receivers Of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad Company will maintain, on and
after January l. 1899 upon the lines ope-
rated by them, the rates, fares and charges
shown on the tariffs published and filed
with the commission as required by law.
I'VE believe that all or nearly all of the
railroad carriers within the territory above
mentioned will likewise maintain their pub
hshed tariff rates from that date. To pre-
vent a relapse. however. to the conditions
now existing ii is necessary that 10 impor-
tant carrier shall long depart from the pub
lished tariff rates. Should such a departure
occur TO the detriment Of the interests in
Cur charge we shall invoke the aid of the
commission tc stop it. We hope and believe
that many other carriers will do the same.
In the anticipation that the other railroad
carriers for nerly associated with the Bal
hmore and Ohio Railroad Compny in traffic
associa tions will adopt the course decided
Oh by US and above outlined, we have taken
the liberty of transmitting to each such
carrier copy Of this letter"

WHY MR., BLISS RETIRES.
Private and Personal Reasons Make
1t Necessary.

Mr.. Bliss says, regarding his retirement
from the cabinet:
'It has been understood for some time
that it would be my wish to retire from
public life on the conclusion of the war.
Now that the peace treaty has been signed,
my request to be relieved will be granted
but l shall await the arrival of my sue
cessor before severing my connection with
the Interior Department. l have been in
most hearty accord with the President in
his policy through the trying days in which
he sought to avoid war, and while COM
mander-in-chief, he was conducting the
war that came, notwithstanding his effort
to prevent it. / believe most thoroughly
in the course he is now pursuing for main
tanning the honor of the country by secur-
ing the just results of a successful war. /
leave my associates of the cabinet and of
the department and my many friends in
Washington with great regret, but private
and personal reasons make my retirement
a necessity."
