MILWAUKEE AS A RATE CENTER.

MILWAUKEE AS A RATE CENTER. In the science of rate-making, traffic
 officials recognize specified districts or centers, and make all rates to and from stations in districts even. This is sometimes done at the request of busi- ness men in one place who want the
 same rates that their competitors at
 nearby points have, and sometimes it is done for the roads convenience, to avoid the making of a great many rates, it being deemed cheaper to haul the freght a little longer way for nothing ! than to make and keep tab on so many
 rates. But this system oft-times works great injustice to certain cities that should be centers. Milwaukee is at
 present suffering from injustice of that
 kind. Notwithstanding that she is a
 city of three hundred thousand and vast business importance, the roads have placed her in the Chicago center,
 presumably because the Chicago mer- chants desire to supply the Wisconsin territory on an equal footing with Mill waukee. Through certain districts of
 the state, notably along the lake shore, this condition gives Chicago no advan- tage that Milwaukee does not enjoy. But through other districts it gives Chi cago an advantage that she should not have. or rather it denies Milwaukee an advantage that it should be permitted to enjay.
 At present there is considerable agi- tation among merchants in regard to rate discrimination. Some of these, mo- tably the Lake Superior summer rates, cannot be avoided, as the ore boats
 bring up freight to lake ports at nomi-
 nal rates. In this it is Detroit and Cleveland, and not Chicago, that has the advantage. But interior-point rates can and should be remedied. Rates out
 of Chicago and Milwaukee points in
 the central and mentral west parts of
 the state are the same, although Mill
 waukee is seventy to ninety miles near
 CT those points, according to lines used.
 Milwaukee merchants believe that they
 should have natural basis rate to
 those points. one that would give her
 the advantage of that shorter distance.
 They fail to perceive the justice of the
 roads hauling freight sixty to ninety
 miles for the fun of the thing just to please the Chicagoans. They think that
 Milwaukee should be basis center for
 rate-making, and that her geographical
 location should be recognized.
 This matter is being discussed among
 merchants, and with considerable spir- it. Would 1t not be a good thing for the
 business associations to consider it?- Milwaukee Journal.

HAVE BEEN NO RACES.
Steamers Peck and Payne Will N,

Steamers Peck and Payne Will Not
 Race With Passengers Aboard.
 The current stories to the effect that the Richard Peck, of the New Haven Steamboat line, and the Payne. of the Bridgeport line. had a race scheduled for yesterday were out of whole cloth. There was no semblanee of a race on the trip from New York west. and such thing would not, under any eircum- stances, be permitted by the officials of the two companies. It is strictly ad- verse to the policy of any steamboat company to permit racing when there are passengers aboard. When the Rich ard Peck won the proud title of Queen of the Sound" some years ago the ac- tual contests in which she proved su- perior were held on Sunday and there were no officials aboard. She was in racing condition and preparations were made for the test.
 Last Friday, when it is claimed that the Payne ran away from the Peck, the officials of the latter boat deny that there was a race, and cite the rules of the company as proof of their state ment. President Jenkins, so a Bridge port paper states. has made the asser- tion that, If the New Haven Steamboat company desires. it can easily satisfy itself as to whether the Richard Peck or the William q. Payne is the Queen ofithe Sound" While such desire has not been expressed, it is not unlikely that 1t exists, and the opportunity of proving claim to the proud title may soon be given.
 It was stated that there was to be a race between the two rivals on the trip | from New York yesterday. Both boats are scheduled to leave their docks at the same time. They did so, but the Payne makes one stop at Thirty-first street and in consequence was a half mile or more astern of the Peck when she started on the journey. Whether or not there was any special effort to catch the Peck cannot be stated, but it is certain that the distance was not ii- unfinished, but that the Payne was a mile or more astern when it was neces- sary for her to shift from the course and run into Bridgeport. No effort was made by the officials of the Peck Ito increase her lead on her rival but the same rate of speed was maintained as is usual on the trip. The officers of the New Haven boat, while expressing themselves freely on the subject admit that the Payne is very fast boat, but that the Peck is far superior and some of the men would like to have the con- troversy settled by an actual and fair test, such as was done with the Lowell and the City of Lawrence.

sA.VIN ROCK THEATER.

The theater this week will be excep- tionally interesting to visit, for there never has been g. time in the whole his- tory when it has had so many interest ing features. Harry LeClair is the bright particular star this week, and last night he scored a big hit. MT. Le- clair's work is at all times artistic, and unlike some so-called female imperson- ators, is never vulgar, and his gowns were models of artistic elegance. Col lins and North sang up to date songs and their repartee was very funny. Ed- wards and Kernell in a comedy sketch and Carroll and Donahue's singing and dancing were caught all right. J. j.. Fisher, the baritone soloist, sang some new songs and made his usual big hit. Wheeler and Holland, a pair of pretty young ladies, dressed very nicely and sang and danced to perfection. Their conversation ance is new and novel and the Mooney Parker trio in their unique and wonderful punching bag act is a most original conception, and made g. big hit. Extra matinee on July 4 at 1 o'clock.

THREE GREAT RACES
Will be Witnessed at the Coliseum at
 To-night's Meet.

VIII De Witnessed at the Coliseum al
 To-night's Meet.
 Three celebrated riders who have performed creditably across the sea within the past few months will make their first appearance in this country at the bicycle races at the New Haven Coliseum tonight. It will be the first clash Of the fast American sprinters with the foreign talent imported by the National Cycling association into this country to add zest and flavor to the grand circuit championships which will commence in few days.
 ''Pugger Bill' Martin, F. c. Beau champ and Iyer Lawson are the riders
 referred to. All three arrived in this country last Friday night and by dint of much hustling they were corraIled
 individually to try their speed in to- l nights contests against the best pro- fessional cyclists in this country. Their presence in to-night's contests assumes such importance to the racing game
 that number of prominent officials in-
 terested in the progress of cycle racing
 have informed the local management of their coming.
 Lawson is we'll known here through
 his plucky opposition to Champion
 Kramer and Major Taylor on the grand
 circuit last year. He was the Ameri-
 can rider selected to represent this
 country at the worlds cycle champion ships at Rome last month. Lawson and orl fI,n ship, but the American fell in the run ing of the single wheel event, which 1 probably robbed him of championship honors.
 ''Plugger Bill'' Martin and Beau 1 champ come here direct from Australia. Martin is an American, but this is Beauchamp's first visit to this country. ''Plugger Bilr' won the two mile Aus tral race, with $2,500 added money to
 the winner last February at New Zea- land. He also picked up $30,0OO in wag- CTS on the race, the bookmakers who throng the cycle tracks in that country
 having laid literally against his chances and which the American was sportsman enough to take advantage oc.
 Martin is independently rich now, and yet despite the fact that he is the oldest rider in the game; despite his two score and more years of life-he is forty-four years old now-"Plugger Bill'' is still pursuing strenuous ex- istence. He is great rider and pushes an immenes gear. New Haven folks
 will remember "Plugger Bills" power full pedal-pushing on the Elm City driving park track when he rode there in '9S. He is riding better now he says than he was then, and his style of rac- in gought to be very interesting on a small track. Beauchamp, his partner, won the great Austral race in 1899, worth $S,OOO, and will probably be a powerful factor in the big handicap races which will be decided in this country.
 Opposed to the "big three' tonight will be the rare lot of fast money chas- CTS that have made things so interest ing for each other, and the spectator, too, in the previous events held on the local track this year. The crowd tonight will probably draw out a banner crowd.
 A host of amateurs have enlisted in

IN SUbKIES AT BRANFORD
CHANCE IN PROGRAMME WHICH
 WILL PLEASE PATRONS.
Races for the Third Have Been Merged With Those of the FOuFth-Thres Events on the Card for the Holiday Crowd.

The management ot Branford Driv- ing park make the announcement that owing to one of the classes not having filled for one of the scheduled events to take place at this track on July 3, they have decided to merge the races of this day into those of July f. The many patrons of the sport at Branford Driving park will read this announce ment with great deal of pleasure, as instead of two races on the glorious Fourth, they will now have the oppor- tunity of witnessing three. As a spe- cial attraction for the Fourth, MT. Fisk states that he has secured some crack a-jacks on the silent steed to race for the city championship at this track on the above day. All those who are fond of bicycle races will hail with delight this new attraction.
 Outside of the above mentioned change, the programme for these great races will be the same as has already been announced in our columns. For the different classes on the card the management has succeeded in securing the entries of some very fast steppers, who will vie with each other in the races for the money. From the fact that there are two or three dark horses" entered in the 2:21 class, there is considerable speculation as to the outcome of this particular event. The other races to be decided on the Fourth are the 2:40 class. trot or pace, the 2;30 class pace and the 2:24 class trot. The special train service for the races on the Fourth may be found by referring to the advertisement in another part of this issue.
 In addition to the races. the manage ment announces that the original pro- gramme for the Fourth will be followed to the letter.

But 1t Will be Legal to Catch Black
 Bass To-Day.
 The fronting season in Connecticut for the year 1902 came to close at mid night last night. Taken as whole, the fishing this year has been good and was far better than that of year ago. AL though there has apparently been more rain this season, the fishermen report that the streams have not been as high on the average as last year, and conse- quently the fishing has improved.
 To-day the open season for black bass will begin, and it will be legal tol take these, by many considered the gamiest of all fresh-water fishes. Saltonstall Lake, Wethersfield Cove and Keeney's Cove at Hockanum have yielded some fine fish in past seasons, and farther away the Columbia reservoir, Pocata- paug Lake at East Hampton, Bashan Pond in East Haddam, Rogers Lake at Lyme and the Twin Lakes at Salisbury 2 have afforded good sport.
