It U not likely lo do so unless it U gunrsnteed au ttquitablo buaiuose. This action on the part of the Lehigh Valley company only af feots lbs railroads doing business be tween Nsw York city and Buffalo. The regular far between the two above cities is 1) 25, but as the Lshiffh Valley emupany U allowed a different ial of $1 M, the fare by this rout- i $s. It is contended by the Lehigh Valley people that they are willing to enter into any contract for the maintenance of rates, but it baa got to be on an equitable busu, that i eaoh road to be allotted a certain percentage of the pas aeuger trallic, uud when one company exceeds its quota then that company is to be compelled to advance its pricoj. The officer claim that the aompuny his for many years been worked on ft conserrative basis and the consrquence was tbat all the competing road charged what they liked and broke in to the company's business. Now this is changed and they intend to stand up for what they consider their rights. The new railroad betweu Pittsburg and Fairinonut, Vst Virgiuia, wis tlirown open to traffic Monday. The new Hue will be known as the Fair mount District. The distance of the uew line between Unioutown and Fair mount 1 . travertcd by the State Line railroad from Uuiontonu to ths stale boundary, and from there to Fair mount by the l'ltiiburg, Fairmount and Morgantowu railroad. The line opens hundreds of square miles that are wealthy In mineral, aud for a mountainous country fertile. The new line will divert to Pittsburg trade wtick has heretofore goue to Uilti moru, for Fairmount is now 15G milm from Pittsburg by rail, where before it was sevtral !.u drol mil;. It is prob able that the Pennsylvania railroad will try to tap this new field Boon. It ll thought that the Pennsylvania Hue will le extruded to Morgantown ellhsr from Brownsville or Fairchanue. Grad ing is likely to be commenced this sum mer. Surveyors are said to b out at present along one of the pronuaed Peon ylTftuia routes. With low freight rates west Virgiuia coal is likely to be come u strong competitor with Hock ing Valley coal. The West Virginia coal lies mostly in veins doss to the surface, making mining comtnirstivsly easy und cbenp. At Van Vorhis, ou the new line, there ure 10,01)0 acres of black diamonds. At West Ban, not lr from Morgantown, there are 23,000 acres of coil. The freight traffic on the Pennsylva nia railroud is gradually improving. Since the hi'siuning of February it baa increased 20 per cent, aud white it is not us heavy as a year ago, it does not show much loss when the impstus niven to freight shipments by the Chi cago exposition is taken into account. While the traffic is materially heavier than that of two years ago the receipts huvo diminished materially besause the depression in business has decreased the tonnage from industries which contributed largely to the revenue of the great corporation, Tne tonnage Irn ffic of the company is also Increasing and will probubly soon reach its nor tnal condition The compsny has dis- churgad vciy few men on tho line be tween Philadelphia aud Pittsburg, but has been obliged to reduce the time of labor from ten to eight hours to con tinue them in employment. The uum ie r of wotkmeit in the nsrvice of the compauy between the two points ap proximates 15,000. At the coming sheriff ail of so much of the ub.atuloned South Penn sylvania railroud as extonds through Somerset county the farmers who sold rights of way through their farms will be able to buy back the laud at one fourth of what they received for it. Then wus more than $1,000,000 rx peudtd on this road before the Vander nilts got sick of attempting oompstt- tion in Penusylvauia aud abandoned it. The reorganiatlinn of the Pennsyl vania und West Virginia Railroad company bus excited renewed interest in that project. The proprietors have agreed to put up 200,000 to complete the road from this place to Cessna, Bedford count v. und thence by the Baltimore and Oaio railroad into West Virginia. The road was projacted sev eral ysaia ago, and rights of way ob tained. The grades aud bridge abut ments are finished. It is expected that the line will be finished tn a year. It will tap some of the richest mineral aud timber lauds in the state, wiiieh have been practically undeveloped on account of their distance from a rail way. The new eastern passenger agree ment recently entered into by trafflt officials at Chicago has not been signed by the Lehigh Valley, (irand Trunk or Wabash. The $10,000 penalty at tached to rate cutting or commission payment under the agreement is cer tain to break it. No Hn has the slightest intention of paying inch a penalty. If rates are cut as they are und will be members will find means to withdraw from the agreement be fore thoy sail in to equallzt nutters.

Commenting with referenoe to the local electric light question, the Pitts ton Gazete thinks tuut the Philadel phia decision adverse to elty ownership of a plant ought to hive no tearing hereabouts lor the reason tbat: "One of the most important items of expense in the manufacture of elsctricity is fuel, aud tli.i comparatively low rate at which coal can be purchased at the scene of proiuction should tend to les sen the cult.

Clark, the local florist, will adorn I'll tut oil's new hospital grounds hy the tasteful arrangement of shrubs, flowers aud trees. Sapient Sam Boyd, of the Wilkes Barra News-Dealer, apropos of Mr. Rockwell's recent letter in The Triu DKB, remarks that "the cost of an elec trio plant is wildly exaggerated, but putting a price of $250, 000 on the Scran ton plant, is about the wildest we have met with yet. All municipalities ouht to own their own electric plant, tor the saving to the city thereby would in a few years pay the entire :ost of establishing it." a certain persons in carnonuale arc greatly enraptured with the writings nf Dr. Uonun Doyle, lbey hope to g-it Dr. Doyle to deliver n lecture in the Pioneer City during hi scorning tour oi the United States, A writer in the Carbondale Herald enthusiastically says: Dr. Dovie is the new light iu the literary tirinament, who lately discontinued the practice of medicine to engage in the creative fancies of lit erature. The esteemed ScKA.vrox TitiBi'.NE published a charming serial from tlio polished peu of this brilliant author u few months ago, which alone tjuite sufficient to establish that writer's claim to gracioui recognition.

It felt as though It hud dried on me. The scales were so bad that they would collect In the bed aud have to be shaken out. It wus about this time that I commenced using B. B. B. 1 was so bail that I was ashamed to lake my hat oft before a neighbor. I had used live buttles of another medicine without noticing any effect ; but when 1 commeuced to take B. B. B. tho sores came out thicker than before, and they burned liko Arc ; they were immense blotches of Are that would burn so I could not sleep. Tho way they burned aud itched can not be told, and I hope no 0110 elso may ever know from experience. The only relief I tould get wa9 from washiug the sores with some B. B. B. I stuck to tho medicine and was on the fourth bottlo before I could see that I was really better, although 1 knew that it wus better to get such rottenness out of my blood thau to have it stay there. I did say once that I wished I bad never commenced taking B. B. B., but my wifo encouraged me, and to-day I thauk her fur tho advice, for 1 am in good health now. and 1 don't believe 1 ever would have been wiih my blood in such u condition us it was. My scalp now Is clean aud clear of all scales and tetter, and on my body there are only small spots to show where the sores were, and these spots are free from scales. I do not doubt but that tho cure will be perfect. I am now on the 9ixth bottle nud will take more until every spot is gone. I lirmly believe tbut Burdock Blood 6itter$ will cure the worst disorders of the blood, tor sucli Certainly WM mine. Signed, KANHOOD ErOREANJifTERUSiriu.no o'.L,.i. .ioaie.s NfcHVi: MEKO'CU..
