RIVER PACKETS COMBINE
THE OWNERS OF THE LARGEST
BOATS HAVE ALL REACHED
AN AGREEMENT.
A MOVEMENT NOW ON FOOT
By Which an Agreement Between
Small Local Packets VIII be
Reached and the Same Scale in
Vogue With the anger Boats
Will Be Given to Them-General
River Intelligence.

There was an account published in
last Mondays Register, a mere report
regarding a combination of or an
agreement between the owners of the
larger packets plying out of Pittsburg.
Not only is this SO, but, if all arrange
ments contemplated are completed,
the smaller packets will be taken in.
This does away with all rate wars.
The rivermen for years have been cut
ting each others Threats, carrying GER
tain articles for less than it cost to
handle the stuff. Years ago an agree
ment would have been effected had it
not been for a certain boat owner.
The rate on certain common articles
has been raised away up. This the
boat owners were compelled to do in
order to live. The present rate is now
nearly what is charged on railroads.
The boats that are in on the deal are
the Queen City, Virginia, Keystone
State, Kanawha, Greenwood, Ben Hur
and Lorena.
In order to give a general idea of
the advance the following table of ar
ticles, consignment of which is very
common on boatS.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1900-01-29

The last item refers to shipments
from Pittsburg to this point and the
rest, to the rate between Pittsburg and
Cincinnati. 1t is only fair to the boat
men to say that the general increase
is certainly deserved.
Even since the larger boats have
formed their agreement, a movement
has been on foot, in charge of a we'll
known local packet owner, to bring
about a meeting of the smaller local
boats to agree to a uniform scale to be
used by all. The Urania's owners re-
| fused to enter tn combination and I'M
til yesterday the matter could not be
accomplished. Yesterday it was re-
| ported that the Urania had layed up at
Sistersville and paid the crews off,
sending them home. For a long time
it has been known that the boat was
not doing a very lucrative business and
would soon have to quit the trade.
| Although it was not thought the boat
would drop out so quickly, the boats
| withdrawal has opened the way to eff
feet the proposed combination and
agreements not only among themselves
but with the of the larger
packets.
The projectors of this movement are
very confident of it's success, and are
sanguine enough to state that the work
will be accomplished before the week
is out.
The boats affected by the proposed
change in rate will be the Leroy, Ruth,

Played IA sharp Trick.

SAN DIEGO, Gala, January Is
From reports brought by the Hamburg
steamer volumnia it appears that the
arrival of the vessel at Tumaco, Colom-
bia, where she touched on the way up,
had the effect of saving the place from
capture by the Colombia rebels. The
latter had demanded the surrender of
the town and the governor was at his
wits ends. Just then the VolUmnia
was sighted. The governor then sent
a defiant message to the revolutionists
and told them that the steamer OFF port
was bringing 500 government troops.
The trick succeeded and the rebels
abandoned their purpose to capture
Tumaeo.
