Frank Fnqua, who was arrested Monday night on complaint of the bartender at Kugler's saloon lor attempting to rob the money drawer was released yesterday morning, the bartender refusing to push the case.

A Frightful Runaway.
Last evening about 6 o'clock, Mr. Andrew Geyman, bar-tender at the Filbeck house, in company with a Mr. John Gettings, representing Carter's Little Liver Pill company, hired a hoifie and buggy from N. C. Howard & Co., and drove ant Seventh street. Both had been drinking heavily and were under the influence of liquor. When near the corner of Seventh and Hulman streets their horse, which had been driven at a furious pace, was run with terrific force against a tree. Geyman and Gettings were both hurled, to the ground and seriously injured. The horse dropped dead, having dashed out its brains. Geyman suffered a severe fracture of the elbow joint, and Gettings, who is a large, heavy man is supposed to have received internal injuries. The buggy was badly broken. Geyman was removed to the Filbeck and Gettings taken to jail. Dr. J. R. Crapo attended both men and said their escape from death had been remarkable. Gettings, it is said, has been drinking incessantly since Monday morning. Messrs. Howard & Co. will prosecute both men.

The war is on, and there is no telling when it will end. Said a level-headed railroad man yesterday "There was no occaaioh for. the cut, considerable business has been moving and the prospects were fjr a greatly increased volume now that the mills are starting up. At twenty cents there is money in it, at fifteen there is comparatively nothing. I can account for. it in no other way than that it is" a scheme of speculators in the stock exchange who make their profits out of the fall and rise of stocks rather than the roads themBclv68«^
The demoi alization of rates was the to pic of conversation yesterday. The agents rolled up their sleeves and went to work and those not directly interested did the talking. "I think," said a gentleman prominent among the railroad offices, "that the only solution for the mjdBtainance of a pool is to impose a fine of $50,000 or $100,000 upon anyroad manager authoring a cut. What does a fine 01 a small sum amount to? In many cases by stealing a march on the other roads many times over the amount of the fine can be realized.''
ST. LOUIS, September 1.7- Railroad passenger and freight rates which have been greatly disturbed here for some time past are getting worse and worse. A 16 cent rate to Boston on grain was made to-day and 17 cents on mill feed. It is asserted that grain can be sent to New York for 12J cents, but no contracts at that rate are known to have been made* Passage tickets to New York have been bought at $14, and it is alleged that they can De purchased at $12 or even less, .ImprovingtheT.H. & Jj.
Work on the "camel back" on the Terre Haute & Logansport division of the Vandalia, seveial miles north of Rockville, was recentlycompleted. Both grades which were the heaviest on the line, were cut down fully ten feet, and a trestle connecting them partially filled up. Heretofore the heaviest engines were not able to pull a very large train over the "camel back" and doubling was frequently resorted to. The force employed on the "camel back" has been transferred to Crawfordsville. A trestle 1,200 or 1,400 feet long isjheing filled up: several miles north of that city. It_ will require some time before the work is completed.

foe atmosphere in local railway circles Monday was comparatively quiet, and rates were strictly adhered to. Almost under cover of darkness, however, a bomb was rolled into camp and exploded yesterday morning. Horace W. Hibbard, general freight agent of theVandalia, was the city Monday and until noon yesterday. Monday he wired G. S. A. Davis, of the C. & E. I., and" G.F. A Hill, of the Bee Line, proposing a strict maintenance of the 20-cent rate to New York. Mr. Hibbard received replies favoring the proposition. Yesterday morning it was discovered that the I. & St. L. was receiving freight for New York, thirteenth class, at 15 cents per hundred. A- general break followed and. all line agents wedt to work seeuring^business at the cut rate. It is asserted that the I. & St. L. received notice to cut the rate about 5 o'clock Monday afternoon, and succeeded in "scooping" the other lines of business. Railroad men claim the I. & St. L. is responsible for the cut. Mr. A G. Nichoson, agent of the White line, wasaskedil the I. & St. L. inaugurated the cut. He replied that "it was said to have been the C. A E. I., but that the I. & St L. waa as anxious as the C. & E. X. to cut the rate. In reply to a question regarding the volume of business, Mr. Nichoson said there was a great deal of business movuag, but he had run out of cars. He at first thought this was rather unfortunate, but changed opinion immediately by saying that it might be considered^ fortunate, as there was not much in freight at 15 centB to New York.

The summer season at Lake Maxinkuckee is drawing to a close. The management of the Vandalia is gratified with the results, which neatly exceeded anticipations.

Three young men from the north end went up to the second sand bar recently and ventured to go in swimming. While in the water, one of three very mischevious hoodlums who were also boating up there, ventured to steal a pair of pants belonging to one of the swimmers, and brought them away unobserved. It may be briefly explained that the pantless individual was brought down as near the city as possible and secreted while his friends went to his home in the south end and brought him another pair of trousers.
In pursuance of a published call, a meeting of Wabash river steamboat offi cere who had paid licensee from 1869 to 1883, was held last night at the office of W. W.

Davie, and followed by about fortyrfive members of Morton Post, and several neighboring posts, marched to the family residence and escorted tbo remains to St Stephen's Episcopal church,' where services were conducted by the Bev. Delafield. f^om the church thi remains were taken to Woodlawn cemetery and laid to rest The G. A. B. ceremonies at the grave were according to the ritual. Senior Vice Department Commander George Miller, in the absence of the department commander, assumed his duties, Post Chaplain Winters, of Morton post, represented the department chaplain. Colonel R. S. Robertson, of Ft. Wayne, delivered an address at the grave. A salute was fired by the Veterans, and all that was earthly of the departed soldier was consigned to mother earth by his comrades.
