SHIPPING HARDSHIPS.
Pertinent Complaints as to Railway
Freight Classification.
OLIVER BEOS'. WHIFFLETREES PUT
Airay Above Ordinary Grades ot Iron and
' Almost Knocked Out.
SCALPES COUNTING ON COMMISSIONS
The freight shippers thronghont the city
are growing more indignant every day at
the stringent rules placed upon them, as
embodied in the inter-State commerce
amendment. They are not only complain
ing 'about the penalty attached for violat
ing the law; but say the burden is made
greater by the recent revision of the classi
fication. Everything that is shipped now
must be plainly marked, and noted on the
bill pf lading accordingly. The description
of the various articles must be specific, and
anything tending toward a violation of the
law will subject the shippers to arrest.
A meeting of the PittsDurg committee of
freicht agents was lfeld yesterday in the
ofiice of Division Freight Agent Means, of
the Pennsylvania lines. The object was to
discuss the revised classification and hear tfie
complaints of a number of indignant ship
pers. "WHrFFLETBEES KNOCKED OUT.
Abont the most important objection to
the revised classification came from Oliver
Bros. & Phillips, who claim their busi
ness is being unjustly injured by
the new classification. The firm are
large shippers of whiffletrees, which,
they claim, are really the same as iron, and
should take the iron rate, away below second-class;
but the railroad companies have
refused to reduce them. A number of the
agents here say the classification is entirely
too high, and they would make it lower if
they could. These trees are a cheap article.
Ther are put up in packages of 12 and only
weieh about 100 pounds. They are not lia
ble to breakage as other high-class freight,
and the firm sees no reason why they should
be made second class.
At the meeting yesterday; which convened
at 10 o'clock and continued in session all
day, the matter was carefully discussed.
Several of the agents wanted to recommend
a reduction to the Classification Committee.
THEY COULDN'T AGREE.
Others advanced good reasons why they
should be allowed to stand where they are.
After hours of discussion it was decided to
postpone action on the matter for the
present.
The firm evidently thought the agents
did not know what a whitSetree was, or
what it was made of; so they sent one to
the office of General Agent ilcCasue, of the
Lake Shore road. If the classification is
not reduced the firm will probably send one
to the Classification Committee at Chicago,
and let them personally examine the con
struction of the article.
As an indication of how the shippers are
observirg the law, a case was cited by one
of the division freight agents. For the first
time in his 17 years of experience he had
been asked for a rate on decorated glass
ware. This was formerly shipped as com
mon glassware, and took a much lower rate
than it ought to pay. The shippers are now
afraid of the fine and imprisonment, and
will not run the risk for the sake of mak
ing a few dollars.
1HE SCALPEES XOT SCAEED.
They Say They Will still be Paid Commis
sions on Tickets.
The action of the railroads between Kew
York and Chicago, including those in this
city, in making an agreement not to pay
commissions on tickets, is not having much
effect on the ticket brokers and the Pittsburg
railroad agents who have been receiving
commissions. Xoticcs have been sent out
by all the lines that, on and after April 1,
no commissions will be paid. The notices
read:
Kot to pay, share or allow any form of
commission, salary, side cut or other con
sideration in connection with the sale of
tickets of the issues of other companies, or
permit the tickets of these lines to be sold at
anv point on commission.
The stronger lines have issued another
notice to the effect that their agents are pro
hibited from leceiving commissions, and
any violation of the rule will cause immedi
ate dismissal.
A number of ticket brokers, or scalpers,
were seen yesterday, and when asked about
the matter smiled. They said that the
weaker lines would continue to pay the com
missions just the same as ever.
The railroads in this city that pay com
missions are the Lake Erie and the Pitts
burg and "Western. It will be abso
lutely necessary for them to re
munerate the "brokers in some way,
or the latter will not handle their
tickets. As one of the scalpers said: "It is
all right for strong lines to refuse to pay
commissions, for they will get the business
anyhow, but such roads as the Lake Erie
aud Pittsburg and "Western would get no
through passengers at all if they did not
give us something for them."
Thirty-two lines in the 20 systems between
Chicago and lew York signed the agree
ment not to pay commissions. The out
come of the matter will be watched with in
terest. THE DEPOT ALMOST COMPLETED.
It ! Rumored That Mr. Tlioraaa M. Kins
Will be Located Here.
The roof of the train shed of the new B. &
O. station has been almost completed.
Tinners are now at work and in about one
week it will be finished. The last of the
painting on the station proper is being done
and the officials ot the company are contem
plating the date of moving in.
It is stated that the office of Thomas M.
Sing, the newly elected Second Vice Presi
dent of the company, will be moved to this
city, and Mr. King will occupy quarters in
the building.
A nice eight-foot iron fence is being
placed around the train shed.
FOR MALARIA
Use XTorsford's Acid I'boaphntc.
Dr. E. G. Davies, DeSmei, Dafc, says: "I
have used It in slow convalescence and preven
tion from malarial diseases, where the drinking
water was bad; 1 believe it to be beneficial in
preventing summer complaints; also one of the
best agents we have to rectify the bad effects
of the drinking water upon the kidneys and
bowels." ,

Eczema Can be Cured.
The most aqonlling, humiliating, itching
scaly and Burning Ectemas are cured by
the Cuticura Remedies, when physicians
and a I other remedies fail.
I have been afflicted since last March with a,
skin disease the doctors called Eczema. My
face was covered with scabs and sores, and the
itching and burning were almost unbearable.
Seeing your Cuticura Remedies so highly
recommended, concluded to give them a trial,

Eczema Three Years Cured.
Cuticuba Remedies are the greatest medi
cines on earth. Had the worst case of Salt
Rbenm In this country. My mother had it 20
years, and in fact, died from it. I believe Cu
ticuba would have saved her life. My arms,
breast and head were covered for three years,
which nothing relieved or cured until I used the
Cuticuba Resolvent.
J. W. ADAMS, Newark, O.
Eczema on Bavy Cured.
My baby has been troubled with eczema on
his face, neck, bead, cars, and entire body.' He
was one mass ot scabs, and we were obliged to
tie his hands to prevent his scratching. I have
spent dollars on remedies without effect, but
after using one box Cuticuba and one cake of
Cuticuba Soap the child is entirely cured. 1
cannot thank you enough for them.

Bauerelsen case. A jury has not yet been se
cured. Miss Clara Morris has cancelledher engage
ment for this week at Baltimore, and left for
New York, where she will rest until next Mon
day. During her engagement last week Miss
Morris developed an abscess on, tho hip. An
operation was performed and she continued to
play until Thursday night, when a second ab
scess was developed on the other hip. Both
were lanced and'she experienced considerable
relief, but was very ill when ahe left for New

Madstone was yesterday applied to another
of the four children of the Rush county, Ind.,
farmer, who wero bitten two weeks ago. The
stono adhered nearly 12 hours to the 11-year-old
girl treated Sunday and eight hours to the 5-year-old
girl yesterday. Some of the virus
drawn throngh the porous stone will be sub
jected to a scientific examination. Last night
two men from Warren county, this State, came
here to have the stone applied, each being ap
prehensive that some of the saliva of a dog got
under the skin of their fingers.
A special from San Antonio, Tex. explains
why the Robert Garrett party is vjsitlng
Thoraasville, Ga instead of going to the City
of Mexico, as it was announced they would on
leaving Rtngwood, N. J. The special states
that the change was due to tho fact that tho
Garrett party was Informed that an organized
band of desperadoes, who had beard of tho
wealth of the Garretts, had determined to
capture Mr. Garrett and party at tho earliest
opportunity after their arrival In Mexico and
hold tbem for ransom. The plan might have
succeeded bad one of the conspirators not got
drnnk and disclosed the wholo affair. The
Garretts have now decided not to visit Mexico,
but after visiting a few more Southern resorts
to retnrn home to Baltimore. Mr. Garrett's
health Is reported as much Improved. At the
Garrett banking house here the change of
plans is attributed to a whim of the sick man.

THE Bing comes down the ages
full of significance. History
places it earlier than the
Pharoahs. It is often the
only personal attendant which is
never for a moment absent What
wonder that it attaohes to itself
the very individuality of its
owner.
The selection of a King involves
the choice of the Bing itself and
the jewel which it holds. We use
only 18 carat gold and hand work
manship. The details of size and
design are easily settled. Our
many specimens aid the decision.
The setting may be a single stone
or combination of gems. In the
former case our varied stock is a
great advantage to purchasers
and in the latter event we advise a
proper combination, which is most
important.

DISPATCH,
A SAD WOMAN.
The Secret Cnnae of Most Ladles' Trou
bles Explained and (ome Sensible Ad
vice clven. f
It is safe to say that not one ' woman in ten
thousand lives a single week In which she does
not either err or feel like crying The cares of
life, disappointments, and, more than all else,
weaknesses and pains make all women more or
less miserable. This is all wrong. Women were
made for happiness, not for misery. When a
woman is weak she requires strength. Her
body, her mind and all her faculties and func
tions must bo put in a healthy condition, or
she cannot secure strength. Nature fs always
ready to do this, but nature almost always re
quires assistance, and the question therefore
is, "How can we best assist nature?"
The finest physicians in tho medical profes
sion have agreed that nothing so surely and
easily does this as pnre whiskey taken in mod
eration, either before meals or between meals.
The ettect is to gently and healthily stimulate
all the faculties to vigorous action, and thus
nature is assisted and strength is given. There
are hundreds of thousands or ladies in America,
to-day, who are growing stronger, healthier
and more attractive in appearance by the judi
cious use of Duify's, Pure Malt Whiskey. Many
of these ladies are the wives of ministers and
professors, and hundreds of them are temper
ance women. They realize that Duffy's Fare
Malt Whiskev is a medicine, not a drink, and
that it furnishes the best and only positive help"
to weaxeocu uouies iua& u&a ever uuon uncov
ered. Great care should bo exercised, however,
to securo only the genuine, which is absolutely
pure, f or.thero are many so-called whiskies in
the market that are a positive injury to any
one who uses them, we venture to assert.
however, that not one woman In five hundred
who will carefully use this great aid to health
in moderation will continue to suffer from
weaknesses, but, on the contrary, will find a re
newal not only of youthful vicor, but of color,
brightness, and all those qualities which indi
cate the presence of perfect health.

KILTandJERSEYSUITS
In springtime there .is usually a
brisk demand for these goods.
Don't go to dry goods stores and
pay fancy prices for poorly-made
goods, but come here and get the
best for as little money as you
would pay them for the worst Nice
Kilt Suits in flannels at $3. Hand
some embroidered ones at $4, Fine
imported designs at $5, $6 and $7.
We have Kilts of all kinds in flan
nels, cheviots, cassimeres, tricots,

Whatever you want in Children's

Boys' Confirmation and Easter Suits
Our variety of Easter Clothing (long or short pant suits) for
Boys who are candidates for communion or confirmation this year
caps tbe climax for beauty, style and low prices; and don't forget
that
OUR ANNUAL DISTRIBUTION OF CONFIRMATION GIFTS
will take place as usual. We take the address of every candidate
for confirmation or communion, and, during the week before Easter,
we will surprise him with a handsome and costly gift. Every pur
chaser of a confirmation suit is requested to leave his address.
A CALLIOPE Wonder,astilUGoes FREE
WITH EVBEY BOY'S OR CHILD'S SUIT.
Though it is but one short week since we have commenced the
distribution of our wonderful Calliopes, they already have caught
on immensely and the fact is universally conceded that no more
pleasing and entertaining musical devices have been discovered
Since Orpheus first took a lesson to toot ,
On his matchless, soul-inspiring flute;
And birds piped forth their songs of glee, "",
Or the sigh of a zephyr was heard through a tree. v
OUR TREMENDOUS ASSORTMENT OF NEW SPRING STYLES IN
Silk Hats! Stiff Hats! Soft Hats!
and our matchless low prices are well known to the gentlemen of
Pittsburg. It seems that the particular mission of our Hat depart
ment is to supply the men and boys of the Twin Cities with fine and
stylish Hats at popular prices, for this is exactly what we are doing
every hour in the day. We have now on sale all the very latest
light and dark colored Derbys, including the celebrated Dunlap,
Youman, Miller and Knox shapes, and the prices at which we sell
them make it possible for the 6-a-week calico clerk to sport as fine
a Hat as the proprietor of the store himself. Hundred.s of entirely
new and very lovely styles in boys' and children's Hats just opened.
