LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
TWO RAINY DAYS IN SUCCESSION
ARE SERIOUS DRAWBACK.
Prices Firm in All Lines and Strong
and Higher i'm Several-CereaI
Markets Are Very Light.

Two rainy days in succession naturally
curtailed trade with the wholesale houses;
still, those that handle holiday goods are
quite busy filling orders. and report that
their travelling statesmen are sending in
good bills, with trade, as a whole, in excess
of December of last year. a lull is looked
for after next week. except in goods that
come into general consumption. more espe-
cially food products. Groceries seem to be
in good request and prices are firm in tone.
Sugar is in very firm position at Wednes-
days advance Canned goods and dried
fruits maintain their position, with large
demand in all seasonable lines. The demand
now is for fancy apples. and none but the
best have much call. For top grades quota
tons are higher, while less desirable stock
is lower, some sales having been made at
decided concessions. Until after the hoi-
days the buying will be largely of the best.
and for perfect apples there is such a re-
quest that dealers have withdrawn consid-
cradle quantities from storage Onions and
cabbage are moving fairly well at UNI
changed prices. Cranberries are fast NOV
ers. and, being in short supply. rule high in
price. Tropical fruits in good demand for
the holiday trade. Potatoes are moving
steadily but have been without special
feature for some time. Selling is at figures
prevailing last week. and top prices are
readily secured for fancy stock. Cabbage
has lost nothing from the advanced position
taken a few days ago, but made another
gain yesterday. Produce markets are in
strong tone and all lines are active Fresh
eggs are a cent higher and very scarce.
Stored stock is unchanged. Poultry is very
active and prices quoted are readily real
lied, with prospects for higher figures
next week. The confectionery houses, de-
spite the unfavorable weather, are large
shippers and will be for several days to
come.

THEGRAIN-RATE QUESTION
WESTERN LINES DEFEAT THE MOVE
TO ADVANCE THE CHARGES.
Pennsylvania Employees Must Not En-
gage in Outside Business-General
and Personal Notes.

The increase of 21z cents per 100 pounds In
freight rates on grain and grain products
east-bound, which was agreed upon by the
Central Traffic and Trunk lines. to take eff
feet on Dec s, was not put in force be-
cause. Ii is stated. of the inability TO get
Western lines to join in the movement at
this time. When this new rate was pro-
mulgated some of the roads west of Chi
cago protested that they could not Coop
crate at the time specified because they
had large outstanding contracts at low
rates with grain shippers and millers-
These contracts. the Western railroad men
said, could not be disposed Of before Jan. /,
and they asked that the proposed increase
be deferred until that date. Legal repre-
sentatives of Central Traffic roads question
the right of the Western railroads to make
longtime contracts calculated TO hamper
free action the part of their Eastern
connections, and ii was tacitly agreed that
the Central Traffic roads would demand
from the Western roads their proportion of
the increased rates after Dec s, but further
investigation convinced Eastern traffic
managers that nothing would be gained by
trying to force Western roads. and 1t is
generally understood that no attempt will
be made to put the increased grain rates
into effect at least before Jan. 1. and it is
limited that the Pennsylvania has contracts
out which it cannot abrogate. and this was
another obstacle to the proposed advance.
Speaking OF the step now TO be taken by
the Eastern trunk lines to adjust general
freight rates on west-bound traffic, an OH
cldl says there will be no attempt to make
any increase in west bound class rates:
they are satisfactory to the roads now.

A Protective bureau.

All barriers against the organization of
the most powerful railroad protective bu-
reau in the history of railroading were
removed yesterday when the executive COM
mittee of the Western Passenger Associa-
ton decided to recommend to the associa-
ton membership the proposed bureau. The
meeting was joint one between the ex-
ecutive committees of the Western and
Central Passenger Associations. Commits
sfoner Donald. of the latter organization,
succeeded in converting every member of
the executive committee of the Western
Passenger Association to his belief. Com
missioner Donald showed the members how
the bureau would not interfere with indi-
vidual action the various passenger associa-
tions might desire to take, and would in
addition be OF inestimable value. The work
of the bureau will be in charge of detect
i've agency and will consist of watching and
running down ticket forgers and manipu-
lators throughout the entire country

An official of the Pennsylvania states
that sixty days from now the company will
be in shape to get along without borrowed
engines and have enough to keep the tracks
full of business. During January and Feb
ruary new passenger and freight engines
will be delivered in large numbers. The
American Locomotive Company and the
Baldwin works have already commenced
building new engines for both the Eastern
and Western lines, but IL is expected that
deliveries will be much more numerous in
the months specified than of late. The
schenectady locomotive works of the
American Locomotive Company will build
number OF the Atlantic type locomotives
for the Pennsylvania and with these in
service the offfcialS think there will be no
occasion for complaint of the manner the
company will handle its business

President Ramsey Threatens.

The Wabash Railroad, in its endeavor to
enter Pittsburg, has met with numerous
obstacles, and last night Joseph Ramsey,
jr., president of the company, made the
statement that unless he is assured of fair
treatment by the Council work on the road,
as far as Pittsburg is concerned. will be
stopped. He thinks the Wabash can reach
the chief industries in Pittsburg and in the
coke region without entering the city proper.
Already the American Bridge Company,
which has the contract for the steel work
for the bridge over the Monongahela river,
has received an order from President RAM
sey TO stop work on the structural steel.
Should Council to-day refuse to pass the
Wabash ordinance and the threat of Pres
ident Ramsey be carried out, the plans of
the Goulds for a great transcontinental
passenger line will be abandoned and the
company will content itself with freight
connections at Pittsburg. 1t would mean,
also, the abandonment of the Monongahela
river bridge, now under construction, and
of the S1,5O0.000 passenger station planned
for the downtown district.

AN OLD CUSTOM.
In Publishing Death Notices "Other
Papers" VIII Not Copy.

New Orleans TimeS-Democrat
my attention has recently been attracted
to an old custom in connection with the
publication of death notices. said old
newspaper man, land one which the age,
despite its fast movements along other
lines, Its upheavals, its transformations and
crushing of idols, has not yet outgrown.
refer to the practice of lacking on to death
notices the request that other papers pub
lished In other cities please copy. No
more attention is paid TO these requests
now than if they were not published. Time
was, no doubt, when these requests were
needed. 1t is very old custom, so old, in
fact, that their history will probably run
back to the beginning of newspapers. The
purpose of adding this request to the an
nouncement Of a death is easily surmised
Means of communication between COM
munities and individuals were limited when
the custom first came into vogue. The
transmission of letters was slow. Mail was
carried across the country in coaches or on
horseback. Telegraph had not come into
use. Thus the announcement OF death in
of the little newspapers of the country
afforded a convenient method of scattering
the news OF the persons death. Ii was
more convenient than writing letters, and
the information would reach the desired
end more readily. Newspaper men realized
the many difficulties under which the peo-
pie of that time lived, and were willing as
they are willing now, to do anything for
the public good or for the public conven-
fence When the request for the paper of
certain cities to please copy was made il
was needed, and the notice reappeared in
the papers named in the request But no
attention is paid to these requests now
Suppose the request is made, New York,
Philadelphia and Boston papers please copy
at the end of death notice published in
New Orleans-does any one suppose the
notice would reappear in the papers of
those cities? Not the slightest attention
would be paid to it. OF course. there may
yet be isolated instances in some of the
more remote sections of the country where
a decent regard is paid TO the requests but
as rule they are ignored in all parts of
the country. Still may find the same
request, please copy, tackled on TO death
notices published in newspapers throughout
the country. Sometimes / am inclined to
think we make haste slowly. and the les
son becomes especially impressive when we
observe the persistence of ideas of this
sort ideas which have remained despite
the disappearance of conditions which once
made them necessary.

The Hooking Valley Sold.

The Cleveland Leader says this morning
The Pennsylvania Railroad has purchased
the Hooking Valley Railroad and the Lake
Shore is to get the Ohio Central. This fur
Their carries out the apportionment among
these big interests of railroad property east
of Chicago and St Louis and also puts an
end TO the movement having for its object
the combination of all soft coal carrying
railroads in Ohio. This information was
obtained yesterday from a reliable source,
and the absorption of the two smaller roads
is expected early next year.
