Movement.

Several Cleveland passenger Of
ficials annornced that they believ-
Cd that q fiat 2-cent passenger
rate will be adopted throughout the
entire Central Passenger association
territory in short time.
They base this belief on the feel
ing that the pending 2-cent legisla-
ton in Indiana and Pennsylvania
will surely be enacted, in which
event, 2 cents a mile will be the
highest legal passenger rate in the
entire territory OF the association
except small strip in New York,
and distance Of about twenty
miles in Illinois. If the 2-cent
laws are adopted in Indiana and
Pennsylvania the local officials be-
licve that the rates in the New
York and Iniaois portions of the
association S territory would immc-
diately be reduced in order to make
the rate in the whole territory uni
form. AS Isult OF this belief most
of the General Passenger association
lines are now engaged in figuring
their rates for that territory on a
flat 2-cents mile basis.
~ am convinced, said B. r..
Horner, general passenger agent Of
the Nickel Plate "that flat 2
cent rate in Central Passenger
association territory is bound to
come in u short time. We are now
figuring our rates ON that basis in
order To have as much OF the work
completed as possible when the p
cent rate goes into effect. PLAIN

did manage to save some tools u

II put the crew to work to cut on a
large pinnacle Of the berg. Then l set
them all to work with axes, and we
shaped it into a graceful ships hull.
After that we followed 1t out inside,
making cabins and everything like a
regular ship, and with some OF the
timber saved from our vessel we rig
ged her as a bark. side lights and ev-
