Work on the river improvements com menced Monday morning. The contractors have arranged with Jackson Reed for 75.00*4 tons of rock frf the re»t of the freight coming east the Grand Trunk gets about t> 1-li per cent. The aunual ton nage of the freight westward from the in terior of New York State and IVnnsvlvania is about equal to that of New York city, and the Grand Trunk receives a similar percent age. From Bostou the yearly shipments of freight amounts to about 3oo,U.»0 tons and i the Grand Trunk receive* about 15 per cent of the New England freight going west In reply to tin question by Iliscock as to what effect the abolishment of the differen tial rate allowance would haveuponCan.it an roads, Fmk replied that he would have to go out of the business and American roads would,get the traffic which now goes to the Grand Trunk. Senator Co lutu -What is the object of the differential rate? It gives other roads an opportunity to carry freight for less money than competitors and receive a fair share of the profit*. Have you heard any complaints cumi.^ from American roads because of the amount of traffic which is going to the Canadian j trunk lines? Yes, some roads object. I believe. Then, if there whs no pool or any Grand Trunk road the American roads would be benefited. Is that so? Some of them would. Senator Blair— Is there any discrimination in rates between Boston, Philadelphia, Balti more and New York a d Southern ports? No. there is no discrimination. In land rate charges with the ocean rate* for freight to Liverpool, the roads cannot do as the inter state comm* roe law- demandt in regard to two days notice, when changes are nia !e. but rates art published each day. Senator Iliscui k- Docs this tak'- business from Charleston, which is much nearer the cotton ti. Ms a it. I fliouM be a big xport city j I think not. Chang*** in the freight rates I are made beeau*p of the difference between 1 Liverpool and northern ami southern states. Senator Blair Has the Canadian Trunk I Line any natural lv n.'Hg-s over tbe Anier.- j can roads which would warrant a large in crease in ousiness? No sir. Then why do some roads need differential ra'cs? In most cases because they are not first class roads. Is not the manner in which tie railroad business in this country is conducted argu ment in favor of a consolidation of all the various roads under one central management by the State? That is w hat we are coming to. but for the prt sent I believe ir to be better for the roa Is to roads to r« main und. r the present man agement. Pooling is ettiin ly misunderstood by the puhli.- Pi* practiced by railroads, arid government* in ail countries. The law j should estal 1 sh tbe rate an l tb *n keep it i It i* the object of the interstate law to make a fixed rate and th *n maintain it by punish ing those who hroak it In pooling the same end is arrived at. Instead of punish ing the offenders, the pool is so arranged that every road in the pool could get an equal share in the profits and freights. Since the law against pooling hat been in force, there has not been a single punish ment lor violating it. The reason is that there are only five commissioners to look out for 1.500,0cm miles of road. Since the pas sage of the law there has been more schem ing. jugglery and trickery to evade the law than ever before under the system of pool ing Bates were fairly maintained. If it is ever legalized, they will he again. When the commission of Fink ended.presi dent John A King of the Erie took h:s place. He stated that the passage in the interstate commerce law for the abolition of (tooling, cost the Erie road about $1,000,000, and under the pooling system the Erie received $500 000 a year as its share in the profits of the pool. Although the Erie road has differential rates to the west it can get none for eastward hound freight. President King was unable to explain why the Canadian Grand Trunk road was able to get much business unless it was that they are in the habit of giving rebate. “We don't a«k any advantage over the Canadian roads that come into this country." said Mr. King, “but we do Want them to obey the same laws that we do-" Senator Blair—Do you know of any good that the interstate law has done? Yes, it has shown the roa Is that there i« a stronger power than they It has forced the roads into a practical competition with each other. The greatest benefit to American railroads would be to put the Canadian roads that come into this country on a par with our! roads, and if they violate any provision* of the law let them be punished, hut make the penalty the same for American and Canaiiau offenders. The passage of the interstate law caused the Erie road to cut down ex penses about $t;nu.U00. It is now making about as much money as before the passage j of the law. i Senator Iliscock —What would he the re sult if Congress should pass a law forbid ding competitive rate* for freight? I think it would greatly reduce the rates for the road* aud in no way benefit the pub lie. i At five o'clock the committee adjourned until ten o'clock tomorrow.

A free-planting Holiday. On Wednesday of next week will occur the third anr .al observance of the new tree planting i.olidav in our .State known a* Arbor Day. C« .venter Burleigh, in hi* Proclama tion anno nciog the date, "earnestly advises" that it be duly regarded by ail the people our State "in the planting of tree*. »rub* and vines, in the adornment of public ar. l private ground*, not only for the purpose of be* utifying oar village*, town*, parks and public way*, but also for the ex courage merit of forest culture ar.d the growth of d ’.ruber, which wiii be of inestir; inipoJu-.ee to the f rtility, health and futur- prosperity of this xtensive com mon wealth.' Words could hardly be framed in a better manner to express the spirit and pur pose* of the -lay. it is true the observance of tie day esmmenced in a treeless country. The people of picturesque Maine. w;th it* vast forest*, it* grove capped hills, its wealth of a boreal beauty by every river's bank, and I its c.ty parks, town s’reets and home lawn* beautified by the presence of evergreen and de -idunus trees, can hardly conceive the bar- cheerless, unlovely appearance of s county or State without trees. Vet Nebraska here the first arbor day was ob served twenty years ago. was, almost, practi cally a St.it* without a tree. A country of rolling prairie, wind-swept and sun-scorched,! it needed nothing so much as trees to render the land one good to dwell in;” a place where home* could be protected from th*- blast* of winter and the hot sun* of summer, by th- k most beautiful of nature’s products trees By Legislative enactment Arbor, Day was established, and on its i first observance *100,000 trees were planted in s single day. It now has more than twelve millions of trees that have been 1 planted by human hand*. From the wind swept prairie the state has been transformed to one of grove*, park*, forests, tree-lined 1 avenue* and thousands of shade-en closed homes The wealth, comfort j healthfulnes* and beauty of the State has been transferred almost as if by magic 1 through the planting of tree* Tin* example of our western Sister has been adopted by thirty-four of the Union j States, each of which set* apart a'lay in 1 ipring time for common tree planting throughout the common wealth Not only the j tree!* prairie State* but the forest crowned 1 Sta1. of the middle,the northern and eastern portions of our country unite in its observance. 1 N* w York ha* it* magnificent parka in almost every city anil town, it* fine forests through out th* middle and southern portions of the Ktate and its vast Adirondac wilderness and 1 yet on >aturday last, when its first Arbor Day was ohserv. very county in the State w»i” much reason for planting tri es in Mali" -is there is it planting them in New York. In the countries of the old world and in our own country expe r ern e has proved that tree* are not only sourer* of w i alth, hut conservators of health, ohj-s is of beauty, and tea hers of morality, refinement and affection. They make dear 1 tin- hoBo th* v beautify the lawn and street, tin-v render h r-- I tin- cemetery, they add to 1 pos*. *'i i s. they promote the public econ- ui" 'l ii-- State is poor without them, but 1 j rich with them We can hardly have too r m inv 1 j »-i W.

Next lorniug he started to walk to his home j our miles away, but was overcome on the 'ay ami lay down by the roadside. Some i oxl Samaritan picked him up and P>ok him j ome. Dr. Dwinal was called, but notwith-' Landing all his efforts the patient died on riday. Sir.ce then the doctor, who is also hair man of the local board of health, has 1 een vainly endeavoring to induce some one 0 bury the body. After much persuasion wo young men, friends of the deceased, irought a coffin to the house, but then their ourage failed and leaving it in the door- j ay they rushed away. At last accounts the orpse lay in the house unburied, with no, ttendant except Mrs. Brann, the aged nother of the young man who is dead, ewett’s, where Brann stopped, has been j ut under a strict quarantine for three ',-eks. ami numerous persona who met him j uring his stay in the village are on the nxious seat, waiting for the disease to de elop.
