f
Ee BelieTes in Giving the Weak Lines
Differential Kates
TO STOP THE COMMISSION BUSINESS
Commissioner Blanchard, of the Central
Traffic Association, passed through the city
last night bound irom If ew York to Chi
cago. There will be a meeting of the "West
ern roads with the Joint Bate Committee in
Chicago to-day for the purpose of extending
the jurisdiction of the weighing and inspec
tion bureaus. Mr. Blanchanl is impressed
with the importance of the work, and he is
anxious to have the system extended.
On the question of commissions, he said:
"The only way in which commissions can
be abolished is to give the weaker lines a
differential rate. I believe in the old pool
ing system, and would go back to it to-mor-aw
if the law would allow it. "What harm
ould be done by submitting the plan of the
pool to a Governmental committee for their
approval? Some of the Senators
TEOPOSED SUCH -A- SCHEME
ben the commerce law was under discns
on. "What difference does it make whether
the roads divide the gross receipts among
themselves on a pooling basis, or make an
agreement to maintain rates?
"A few years aco the newspapers jumped
on the roads lor making pools. Now they
rake them over the coals for cutting rates
and not earning dividends. It shows that
the gentlemen of the press have good sense,
and are coming around to accept the views
of the railroad men held before the days of
the inter-State law. If a private citizen
makes a good Investment in real estate his
fellows sav he is a shrewd man, but if he in
vests in railroad stock, and it increases, the
newspapers denounce him as a robber. 'Tis
always so when a corporation is under dis
cussion. "It is not true that the Trunk Line and
Central Traffic Associations will be com
bined. There are too many railroads for
one organization, and the plan wouldn't
work. " The Central Traffic Association will
be continued, and there is no danger of it
collapsing. The roads are maintaining
rates, and I hope it will continue. One can't
tell what kind of a year this will be for
business. So much depends on the crops
ind the lake competition."
DECIDED STEPS TO BE TAKEN.
Chairman Blanchard hascalledameefing
of general managers to be held in New
York March C to consider the commission
question, or evil rather, as the Pennsylvania
officials would express it
An intelligent drummer who travels ex
tensively, remarked the other day that the
weaker roads could not exist without pay
mi; commissions, and it is useless to pass
prohibitory laws. Such laws would be un
constitutional anyhow as well as a deliber
ate attempt to check business by shutting
out the poorer lines.
Railroad men do not agree by any means
on this commission question. The Pennsyl
vania officials who would have everything
to gain and nothing to lose at the expense
of their weaker competitors, are rabid for
the abolishment of commissions.
Said a railroad man yesterday: "It is a
notorious fact that with all the other roads
fi ghting them, the Chicago and Alton made
a finer passenger showing last year than any
other road in the country, and the C. & A.
paid commissions, and is doing it now.
"The first year the Erie system abolished
the commission business the number of
passengers carried to New York annually
tell ofi 63,000. At 510 per capita, allowing
the agent the balance of the rate between
Chicago and New i'ork, they could hare
been $630,000 ahead. The expenses would
not have been increased. Instead of
KnKETG EJLPTX.TEATSS
their canr should have been crowded with
people. These passengers went to other
roads, the New York Central and the Penn
sylvania. Tis plain to be seen why the
latter roads are so anxious to down the com
mission system. When they have gobbled
the earth'they will be satisfied.
"Since the agitation against commissions
was started by Judge Cooley and some of
the larger line's, the system has been greatly
abused. It attracted into the business a lot
of disreputable brokers, who have taken ad
jutage of every opportunity to cheat the
public as well as the railroads. The time
was when the commissions were confined to
railroad men only. Now the roads by their
action have deprived honorable employes of
their just dues, and turned it over to the
scalper, "When the railroads paid commis
sions to their own men, it was seldom any
complaints were ntade.
CLOSELY SCBTJTISJT.ZED.
"The employes were held 4ti a rigid ac
count, and if one was discovered cutting a
rate or giving a rebate he was fired bodily.
Xont you think it would be better to have
the. business conducted by men who can be
reached rather than by outsiders who can
snap their fintrers at the companies?
"What harm is there in payine a man a
percentage? It has been proven often that
he will do more and better work than a sal
aried employe. The weaker lines must have"
men to work ud trade for them or collapse.
"Yesterday the Ohio Legislature defeated
the 2-cent a mile rate for that State. If
ouch a law were passed the majority of the
roads in Ohio would not be able to hold up
under the strain. The Nypano, Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton, Lake Shore and
Pennsylvania roads could stand the reduc
tion, but none of the others."

ir observations of events.
, General Harrison at the
o.v. ,1 rememberl went there
as a child to a reption given for ladies and
children, and I certainly have had a clearer
picture of the scene in my mind than any J.
have read in the newspaper recollections so
Jar given.
"General Harrison was in the parlor or
the hotel facing Penn street, looking very
old and worn. He had a bine cloak, which
he kept around his shoulders. "We children
were very much impressed, by him. He
was very polite, but was either fatigued in
his right arm, from some cause or other,
as he asked us to shake his left hand.
"Then the great log cabin and hard cider
convention in Pittsburg was a big event for
the young people of those days. Many of
them must surely remember still how the
streets were thronged with country people
who came in by canal and boat it was be
fore the railroads and a much superior
class of people they were who came to con
ventions then than would be found in Pitts
burg on a political field-day now. There
were ever so many from Ohio, women as
well as men, taking an enthusiastic
part in the proceedings. I remember seeing
ladies from Ohio that day wearing strines
of buckeyes as necklaces. You can imagine
how quaint the scene would be in com
parison with what Pittsburg presents on a
thronged day now. The city was so new
and primitive then; the costumes of the
visitors were so different from those worn
now. During that convention every "latch
string" was out. It was understood that
visitors could go into any house and make
themselves at home. A celebrated French
man who happened to be in Pittsburg at the
time, on, going home wrote a book about the
United States, and therein sagely set down
that our people became insane regularly
every four years."
"And then." continued the fair informant
of The Dispatch, "I wonder how many
people remember clearly the details of Gen
eral Taylor's visit to Pittsburg. To this
moment I remember how, as a child, I was
dressed up it see the triumphal entry, which
was alone Penn street, bvwav of the Greens-
burg pike. I can remember the brass bat
tery, with the inscription that "it took nine
men to beat a Taylor." That was in allu
sion, you know, to'the Mexican "War, which
we thought a very big thing then. though,
distance and history have diminished its
proportions, its glory and its importance.
On those occasions "Wilkinsburg used to
send in showy processions, headed by two of
its best known citizens, riding upon hay
wagons."
"How was Pittsburg in point of size
then?"
"Well, the best idea you can get of the
growth of Pittsburg was given me lately by
a lady who lived here (luring the War ot
1812. She was telling me of going out to
see a regiment reviewed going out along
wav, beyond wheat fields and orchards, po
tato fields, and away out. Finally I asked
her about how far the reviewing place was
from the Pointwhich was then the resi
dence part of the town. 'Oh,' said she, 'it
was away out to where the Fort "Wayne
offices now stand, that is to Eleventh street.
That was considered a long distance in the
suburbs in those days.' "
WHAT MIGHT HATE BEEN.
A Lady Drops 810 Instead of Tiro Cents In

A blind colored man who squeezes out
"Sweet Violets" on a dismal 'accordion in
front of the new Government "building until
the statue of Mercury up on the third floor
makes faces at Venus, was making money
rapidly yesterday afternoon. He lost it
just as fast.
He was just at what used to be the sweet
part of it, and violets was stealing second,
when a philanthropic Fast Fnd lady
dropped two bright new cents in his tincup.
Vi was forgotten until the money was in his
pocket.
The lady walked as far as the postoffice,
when she discovered she had lost two $-3
gold pieces. She concluded that she had
been, too generous, .and summoning Officer
Crossan, she returned to the colored man,
who was now "Climbin' TJp the Golden
Stairs." He allowed himself to be searched,
and the gold pieces were found. The phil
anthropic lady gave him two 25-cent pieces.

.Flowers in Sober Earnest.
OVER 300 AWARDED IN PRIZES.
Many of the Fair Artists Will Be Retained
as Designers.
SOMETHING ABOUT A NEW INDUSTRY
From time immemorial wall paper decora
tion has been followed in China. The very
same process is used to-day, as was prac
ticed when the world was hundreds of years
younger, with' the exception that the Mon
golian of to-aay. employs a continuous roll
of paper made by a European machine, in
lieu of the detached sheets of rice paper
formerly in vogue.
Messrs. Hughes & Temple, who are now
erecting a wall paper factory in Allegheny,
offered six weeks ago a series ot monetary
prizes to the art students of the School of
Design, for a competition in designs for
wall paper and decorations. Miss Hender
son, the talented principal of the school, ap
proved of the plan, and after six weeks
work, the designs were submitted, and the
prizes were awarded yesterday. From 60 to
60 designs were placed on exhibition.
The prizes offered consisted of three first
prizes of (50 each, and seven second-class
prizes. The judges were: G. C. Shidle,
Chairman; G. "W. Pusey,"W. H. Barker, A.
Clark Bane, J. P. Deihle ,& Son, "W. G.
Allej, J. Kerwin Miller, William Badcliffe,
J. SfSnively and. E. F. Graff.
POrNTKBS FOB ABT1STS.
The points considered in the designs were
their coloring, and .general poire. The
judges awarded the first prize to Miss Mand
Palmer. It was of a geometrical character,
or a modern Italian of scroll treatments in
soft colors.
No. 2- was of "a conventional character,
and consisted of a heraldic drawing, both
pleasing in form and the distribution of
color. Miss Cora Bichards was the designer.
The young lady was also fortunate enough
to capture one of the second prizes.
Mias L. McKnight was the winner in the
third first-class prize. Her design was a
specimen of the naturalesque treatment,
with the circular strap.motive.
The second prizes were awarded to Miss
Jennie McMasters, whose designs was very
attractive; Miss Bessie Young, a pretty de
sign in Japanese work; Miss Bertha Gill,
Miss Laura Dummett, Miss Florence Fast
and Miss Mary T. .Patterson, whose work
deserves much praise.
EVEBYTHIN G WAS FAIB.
None of the contestants work was known
by the committee, as each design was num
bered. The work-of the unsuccessful com
petitors, -war good, but not quite equal to
the winners of toe-prize.
The firm of Hughes & Temple is now
erecting a wall paper factory in lower Alle
gheny. It is the first that has ever been
established in the city and is one of the few
outside of the city of New York, which has
until lately, had the monopoly of wall pa
per lactones and decorative work.
Several of the youngladies at the school
are retained as artists for the firm. Em
ployment will be given a number of other
designers, as well as a small army of em
ployes about the new factory.
THE ROSE OP JERICHO.
A Peculiar Plant Is Presented to the Botan
ical Society Other Odd Gifts to the
members Last Night,
A meeting of the "Western Pennsylvania
Botanical Association was held in the parlors
of the Pittsburg Library Association last
evening. Dr. Ziegler, of Allegheny, pre
sented the society with a valuable collection
of Alpine plants. He made a few informal
remarks as to where the plants were found,
their growth, and their peculiarities. A
large collection of Bocky Mountain plants
were also prespented by the learned botan
ist. Miss Jennie "W. Jeffrey, presented an
interesting collection of Atlantic seacoast
flowers to the society.
The most interesting and valuable plant
received last evening was the Bose of Jeri
cho. One of its botanical names is Anastati
ca, the other Hioerochuntica. It may be
said here that the flower is much prettier
than its name would imply, and fully sub
stantiates the old saying about roses smell
ing sweet under any name. The plant was
given to the societyby Dr. T. L. Haggard,
who received it from a Persian traveler.
The flower is a peculiar one. When dry
weather is prevalent, it wraps itself into a
ball, and is to all appearances dead. The
wind blows it from the stalk, and it goes
bounding along the plains in an erratic
course until it reaches a moist spot, where
it unfolds its leaves, drops its seeds and a
garden of roses soon appears.
Colonel T. P. Koberts presented the Pres
ident of the society, Dr. "William K. Ham
ilton, with a gravel made of hard Brazilian
wood. A section of the Black Palm tree
was also presented to the society by him.
This tree grows in South America. Mr. C.
H. Beadle presented a collection of Texas
and other Southwestern plants.
The early part of the evening was spent
in discussing. the formation of these plants,
and in pointing out their interesting points.
The talks were by the members ana were
instructive.
Prof. B. H. Patterson, of the P. C. H. S.,
read a paper upon "Indigenous Mosses of the
United States.' His talk was interesting
to botanists,displaying the speaker's knowl
edge of the higher departments of botany.
