The Atlantic passenger-rate war which has been brought to an end by the understanding reached in London yesterday has been going on Tn one form or another for the best part of a year The contest reached climax in the early part of January, and re- suited in the cheapest transatlantic passenger rates known in a great many years. II was at one time pos sible to travel across the Atlantic in the steerage for s1s,75. This low rate resulted in great increase. as com pared to last year, in the. steerage traffic, particularly going east. While the principal cutting was done in steerage rates, second-cabin rates. also were materially affected.

SNOW sPoILs ICE.
Sets Back Expected Harvest of the
 Ice Men

E The heavy snow which fell Wed nesday was a blow to the ice dealers There is eight inches of good ice on all the ponds. but it Is impossible4to scrape such thick covering of snow off. especially this mushy snow, to al- low any cutting to amount to any thing The only way to do ia to bore holes in the ice and let the water rise over the snow. This. of course, will necessitate another three days of cold weather at least to freeze it up and even then will make an inch and a half of so-called snow ice. All the leading ice dealers say there will he no more fee cut for a week.
 MT konold stated yesterday that his company has. harvested. about ! 4.0Qe tons already, and need about ten 1. times that amount. .. ..
 NIT. Widnnan of the Woodbridge and
 Mir. Milner of the Crystal Ice com pany, both said there would be no cut 1 ting for. a week 10 come.
 One fact that is thought, will help reduce the price is that the ice som panies can hire any quantity of: :men i for s1.40 a day whereas they had to | pay g a 11ax. last. season. -

Kentucky Republicans in convention
last week adopted resolutions binding
the delegates to the National Conven-
ton to vote for William H. Taft until
he shall be nominated.
The feature of the convention was
the fight made by Senator elect William
O. Bradley for place among the big
four" delegates at large, for which
honor he was defeated only after sew
eral ballots by William Marshall Bullitt
of Louisville, the recognized Taft
leader in Kentucky.
Senator Bradley made an imprisoned
appeal for harmony and almost swept
the convention off its feet with his or
atorical outburst. Then followed the
battle of the ballots in which Bradleys
supporters, even among the most rabid
Taft men, urged his selection and
fought to the last to get a place for him.
But his support of Fairbanks and his
infamatory speeches, as they said, told
against him and in the end Bullitt got a
majority. There was much confusion
during the balloting, many counties
changing their votes and a number of
outsiders being voted for before the
final count gave Bullitt majority.
1t is now certain that twenty-five of
the twenty-six votes of this State will
n
ing four two will be contested.
