The Baltimore und Ohio Railroad la arranging ttroDg tolls and tonnage at tidewater fcr Clearfield and Cumberland coala. Tte statement Is made on good authority tbat rates will ia the spring be from thirty to !ty cents a ton lower than those adopted a jrar so, and that of shipments at f. debater the Pennsylvania Riüroad will hay f ptr cent, and the Baltimore and Oaio 45 percent. At tbe Usee cf tin organization ol the fcfir,e Eailroad Commission there were aboat 4(0 rules cf railroad In this State; tt the prtnt time there are 1,148 52 10O milei. Daring the year there rere forty-six accident, aft follows: On the Grand Trent- 15, 3 fetal; Boston and Maine. 0. 4 fatal; Knox and Lircoln, 1; Maine Central, 18, 11 fatal; Portland and Rochester, 2, 1 f&tel; Portland and Ogdensburg, 2, 1 fatal. The total railway mileage of India, as appearing from the latest report, is 11, 025 i miles. Since March 31, 103J4 miles ha?e been opened for trade and are included in the aggregate given above. Lines amount ing to 14 450 miles in addition have ben sanctioned. India contains about 1,030,000 tqnare m'le?, with only about 11 000 miles of railway, while the United Kingdom has a railway mileage of about 13.500 with 121,305 miles of territory. This is an nnlortnnate time fcr linejaeetirgp, because the passes of 1SS1 have ma out and those of have not in all cases come around; It is customary on many linen to ierne circulars making passes good until January 15, in order to give the authorities who ieece annual pastes ample time to get them into the hands of those entitled to them. This was done some two or three years ago, and aline meeting hiving been called at Rechester, all the freight men who went down had to pay their fare. The conductor who collected these fares remarked when he had emerged from the sulphurous atmosphere of the car that he would not go through such an ordeal again for a General ftcperintendency. J.OW RATIS TO INAUGURATION CIREMOXIIS. Mr. E. A. Ford, General Passenger Agent of the Pennsylvania Line west of Pittsburg, announces the following low first-class rates fcr tickets over the Pennsylvania Lines to Washington and return, on the occasion of President Cleveland's inauguration, March 4, 1885. The origical rates proposed by Mr. Ford or this purpose were considerably less than thrse, but because of a determination cn the part of hia competitors tbat higher jatea should prevail, the figures named below were finally adopted as a compiomise: Chicago ?20. Cincinnati $15, Dayton $15, 8t. Lonia $22, Vincennes $19 75, Fort Wayne $17, . Indianapolis $17, Loganeport $18.CO. Terre Haute $19. Solid trains of coaches and Pulliuan eleeping cars will be run to Washingten over the Pennsylvania Lines from their "various termini In the t, and Mr. Ford assures cs that the stand d of excellence in all that pertains to the trass Donation and care of their patrons, for whicu th-ise lines are aircaay iaruouo, scan De ituiy maintalced cn this occasion.

DIYF-ETIXO FRCIGHT FROM CHICAGO. vThe greatest alarm is felt in railroad circles here on account of the serious diversion of Nebraska and Kansas business from Chi cago to St. Louis. Efforts haye been made to discredit the reports regarding this matter, which have already beea referred to in the Tribune. The fact is that the diversion of business from Chicago is far more serious than has yet been stated. The reports of the Southwestern Railway Association show that for the month cf December, 18S1, the Chicago and Alton took l,50O cars of grain from the Southwestern Missouri River points to and via St Louis, Ashland, Alton aid Blcomington, while it brought to Chicago enly G5 cars. For the corresponding month last year the Alton took to Chicago from these points 1,400 car?, and to St. Louis only 967 cars. The Wabash took to and via Toledo 900 cars; to St. Lcnit 440 cars, and to acd via Chicago only 275 cam For tha same month Jast je&rthe Wabash brought to Chicago from southwestern Missouri River points 500 cars. The Missouri Pacific, which runs to St. Louis only, took to and via St. Louis daring December, 16S4. 2.200 cars, while for the corresponding month- last year it took to that joint only 1,554 cars. The Rock Island, which runs to Chicago only, brenzht here in December. 1SS4, only 325 cars. For the correppecding month last year it brought here from southwestern Missouri River points 1.112 cars. The Hannibal and St. Joe Division of the Burlington delivered to fh9 Wabash at Hannibal during December, 1SS4, 350 cars, which the Wabash took direct to Toledo, while it brought to Chicago only 202 cars. ' During December, 1SS3, the Hannibal rd 6t. Joe (Darlington) brought to Chicago 1 750 cars. The Kansas City, SU Joe and Council EluCTs Division of tne Darlington brought to Chicago In December, ISSi, only 2:-0 cars, against 1,200 cars for the correrpcrding mcnth in 183 Chicago Tribune.

Mr. Chambers is a practical printer and will publish a good, readable paper. Success to him. ProfcBsor Virgil McKnlght, principal of the Hijih School at Crothenviiie, who was tendered a position In the .Reform School at Piainfield, has declined to accept it, as his friends are loth to give hi in up, and he will remain where he is. The chronic fruit growers are complaining that the peaches are all killed, but adaut that tbe prospects for an apple crop ara very promising. Notwithstanding we have had no snow this winter the growing wheat is rank and green, and the indications are that a fair crop will be harvested in our country. This city and county will be well represented at Indianapolis to-morrow to witness the inauguration of Governor Isaac P. Gray. Perhaps the largest and best conducted select ball ever given in this city came off at the Eureka Club Jlink, Friday night. Persons were in attendance from Indianapolis, Vincennes, Columbus, Jeffersonvillo and other parts of tbe State. At midnight a bountiful supper was sent to tie rink by Mrs. W. C. lieatoo, of the Hotel Jonai. The music for the occasion was furnished by Montani'e orchestra, from Indianapolis, which was spoken of in the highestterms by all. The visitors returned home yesterday, well pleased with the entertainment. ilr. C. E. Adams. Agent of the J. M. and I.

Mr. Frank GreeD, for three years night ticket ti pent and operator in tbe J , M. and I. office at this place, has resigned tbe position, and is succeeded bv Mr. II O. Wydeman, of Greenwood, Johnson County. He is a young man fall of business, an expert operator, very obliging and a perfect gentleman. The Jackson Towcship Teachers' Institute held a largely attended and pro6tabte session at Shield's High School Building yesterday. SPECULATION' IN CHICAGO. Tbe market toramfuced With a loom, and all FfTorta to Depress Are Not Sue reMfnt to a reat Extent The Uauiil Dodtca Tried. Chicago, Jin. 10. It bas been another week of great excitement on 'Change, and fluctuations In values tave been lrequent and wide, though the tendency all around has teen pretty generally upward. Wheat started with a boom, said to have teen engineered by tbe WoereBboffer crowd in New York, partly, of course, with the hope of pocketing good winnlncs here, and partly also to aid a bull movement in tbe Granger stocks at Gotham. Big local operators, including John Kelson, Schwartz, and John Lester joined in on the longide, and even Armour Is said to have taken a few good-sized lots through Baxter. Outside orders came in from every little country speculator who ever did any business here, and values climbed along skyward. After a fair advance win recorded, however, bolders commenced filling up tbe 'lambs" and laying away their winnings. Then, following the same old tacUcs, they went In to pound tbe market down and shake ont the new holders of tbe grain. Tbe visible supply statement aided them, as It showed an increase and caused talk tbat pvrbaps, after all, the grain in sight bad not yet reacbed its maximum. Cables, too, abot tbis time turned weak, and, as tbe trade figured c wes time for a reaction, there was little diüiral in forcing a arop. Yet it ws3 short-lived. Evt i while doing all they could to depress the mark , Billy Murray and Lynn had half a dozen brok; n in tbe pit picking up all the stun thrown over. Receipts were smaller than for tome months, and while advices from tbe interior told of a freer movement, it had no eSect, it telnj generally believed that henceforth farmers' deliveries would be absorbed by the local m.lling demand. This, together with tbe knowledge tbat the failures reported in Mew Yoik were without foundation, in fact mated confidence and Induced good buying by conservative men. Cable advices also strengthened up again in response to the better tcne here, and tbe general belief is thtt those under the market hayo got a good bold and backed by public sentimtnt. propose to push it for all It is worth. Businessmen report the out look more favorable for all branches of trade, an 1 many tbink higher values for good products the tim and most important step toward general prosperity. "This feeling " aid W. L. Bodman, "attract plentyof buyem with money, and since the voi ume of speculation cu the bull side ba? grown to tuen larue proportion, any sharp breaks in val nes are likely to be quickly recovered." Corn aleo bas shown p'enty of life and activity. Traders early made up toeir mind that corn ought to go up in company wltn whtatand provisions and that there wan not much danger ef Deiny overburdened with supplies if prices were several cents bisher. Hence there was a good deal of confident buying and even when wheat broke ccrn rtmaiced comparatively steady. Keceipts uae been coie liberal but the pcrcentaje of contrsci" wa less. Kent, Hatch, Armour and the other packers have stopped bearing tbe product toafiectthe price ol noes and turned bulls to mate a market for their manufactures. This with one or two segs later on to shake out tailers has been the usual mode of operations each season, with the exception of last year. 8 1 rone Wnsplclon of Marder Ctuwforpsyille, Ind., Jan. 10.

A Hitherto Unwritten Chapter In tbe Life of President Juarez, of Mexico. 'Itwas the best thing I ever saw in the National Theater," said an old-timer to the reporter of The Two Republics yesterday. ' Oh, it is an old story, but I never Eaw it in print," h continued. "What wri it about?" asked the interested new8-gathf er. The ok. man then referred to an interestice story i- .srd og Jose Valero, the Spanish sctor, whe is at present occupying the chair of elocutiu-i ia a Madrid college. The cartain rings up at the time of tbe occurrence, lbC, on the ttage of the National Theater, this city. Valero was playirjg that November night, and the theater was crowded with people. Tte eminent actor was inspired that night net by the breath of the everlasting rose3 of Mexico; not by the fascinating glances and the bewitching glances telegraphed by darkey ed eencritas from behind their fluttering fans; not by the waves of applause that swept over the stage and drowned even his magnificent voice. His inspiration wa3 tbat of friendship. Va'ero had a tried and true friendJuarez, the illustrious patriot and President. Juarez admired the actor lor himself as well as for his princely art and his irresistible magnetIsm. Time had not frosted Valero's temples, and the actor was in his prime. The Frteident occupied a box and was enthusiastic in his demonstrations of p'eainre over tbe eucceis cf his friend. The political revolutions of that time had created antsgoniem to the administration, and as Jnarcz was inexorable, and was a perfect slave to tbe law. hundreds of executions cccurred. One of the victims of the spirit of uprlsal was Manuel Rodriguez, an cilcer of tbe regular army, under sentence of death for in&abordination. Rodriguez combined the chivalry of the Cid with the f ery impetuosity of the Aztec, and wa3 very popular in the city of Mexico. Hence many efforts were made to save him, bat to all appeals Juarez turned a deaf ear. Rodriguez wes removed to the chapel, across whose threshold he should only pas3 to see the sunlight for the last time, and go down under the bullets of his executioners. That n'ght Valero appealed in the passionate, pathetic drama cf 1'alau, "La Campana de la Almudaina," thfi Bell cf Almudaina. "It is a good occasion," said the friends of Rodriguez, "to make a last effort to save him. Let Valero speak to the President." Valeio immediately consented to make the effort. Daring the interval between tbe second and third acts, he xepaired to the Juarez box in his stage costume. "Valero!" exclaimed Juarez "How is this?" "Kxcuse my appearing in this costume," replied the actor. "It is a costnrae cf honor," said Juarez, "cue that has earned you many glorious laurels." "Thanks, your excellency." "Are you coming to give the third act of your drama m my box?" graciously aeked Juarez, with a smile. A shade of sadness floated over the actor'" eyes like a cloud over the sky, and his voi e Eoftened into tenderness, and he said. "No, sir; I have come to avert a tragsd, and not to continue a drama." "How is that?" said Juares, deeply inte--ested. "Well, I will explain In a few words. I ara a Spaniard by birth, but in Mexico I have received so many marks of esteem that I co eider it as second only to my native land and yon. friend Juarez, the dearest con. ratriot cf them alL" Juarez was visibly moved, and his honest Indian hand trembled as he grasped that c' Valero. "What can I do for you?" he asked. "Here is my petition," replied the actor. "Sir, while e are here, you watching my work and I acting a farcical comedy, there is one who groans and sighs for himself aloLe, before a crncicx in a chapel, whose only lot is an ignominious death very so.m, whose onlv consolation is Christian re3ignation, an unhappy" "Do not continue, Valero," interrupted Juarez. "Delinquents do not merit your good offices, acd I can not turn from him the inflexible verdict of military law." Valero bent his head for a moment. Bat he pre&ed ether arguments, and finally Juare zeaid: "Has any one counseled you to plead tho?" "Yes, sir; all the Spanish residents in the City of Mexico." Juarez dryly requested Valero to continue the play, and the actor left the Presidential box with no hepes of success in his noble venture. Juarez scon lft the theater, and whn at the palace called his council of war. What passed there, is not known, but when the performance was over Valero was summoned to the palace. "Take that," said the President, as Valero entered tbe Council Chamber, and a pardon was handed him. "You now have Rodriguez's life in your hands " 'It is the greatest benefit I ever received," said the eminent comedian with emotion, as he faced a few moments later the brave officer on his knees before the crucifix; and the baptism of tears became a sacrament to fall on tbree noble hearts the President in his palace, the prisoner and the actor in the chapel of death.

THE LIBERTY BELL.
A HUtrv of the Casting; that Proclaimed Liberty Throughout the Land. The Philadelphia News gives some interesting particulars of the history of the Independence Bell that is to be sent to the World's Exposition at New Orleans as a feature cf tbe Philadelphia exhibit The order for the bell was given in 1751 The State House of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, work on which had been suspended lor a number of years, was then approaching completicn. Tbe lower floors were already occupied by the Eapreme Court inthechambfr, while in the other assembled the Freemen cf the Province of Pennsylvania, then consisting of or.e body. A rommittee was appointed by the Frceireu, with Pf ter Ncrris as Chairman, ana empowered to have a new bell cast for the building. The commission for the bell was in the fane voar awarded to RDbert Charles, of London, the specification being that the bll should weih about 2.000 pounds and cost 100 sterling. It was to ba made by tbe best workmen, to be examined carefully before being shipped, and to contain, in well-shaped letter around it, the- inscription: "Ry order of the Province of Pennsylvania, fer the State Hoase in the City of Philadelphia, 1752 " An order was given to p!ace underneath this tbe fateful and prophetic wordafrom Leviticni, xxv., 10: "Proclaim liberty throughout tbe land, and to all the inhabitants thereof." The reason for the selection of this text has been a subject cf mnch conjecture, bat the true reason is apparent when the full text is rfad. It U as fellows: "And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land and to all the inhabitants thereof." In selecting the text tbe tood Quakers had in memory the arrival of William Penn and their forefathers mora than half a century before. In Ausust, 1752, the bell arrived, but though in apparent good order, it was cracied by a elrcke of the clapper while boirg tested. It could not be cent back, as tbe captain of the vessel who had brought itover could net take it on board. Two skillful workmen undertook forecast the bell, which, on being opened, revealed a bell which pleased very much. But it was also found to be defective. The original bell was considered too high, and a quantity of copper was added to the composition, but too much copper was added. There were a great many witicierxs on account of the second failure, and the ingenious workmen undertook to recast tbe bell, which they successfully did, and it was placed in condition in June, 1753. On Mcnday, the 8th of July (not the frh) at noon, true to its motto, it rang out tha memorable message of "Liberty throughout the land and to all the inhabitants thereof." For fifty years the bell continued to be rncg cn every festival and anniversary until it eventually cracked. An ineffectual attempt was made to cause it to continue serviceable by enlarging the cause of its dissonance and chipping the edges. It wa3 removed from its position ia the tower to a lower story, and only U9ed oa occasions of public torrow, such ai the deaths of ex-Presidents and statesmen. Subsequently, it was placed on the orieinal timbers in the vestibule of the State House, and in 1873 it was suspended in a prominent position immediately beneath where a larger bell presented to the city in 187G now proclaims the pjssing hours. 1 31 1 OUT AN r TO DOCTOK5. An Kitraordlnary Sarglral Operation Opecf.UK a Man's Sknll and Catting Oat n Tumor. (London Tines. Lonpon, Dc. 10.- While the Bishop of Oxford and Professor Ruskin were oa somewhat intangible grounds, denouncing vivisection at Oxford last Tuesday afternoon, there sat at one of the windows of the Hospital for EpUer a? and Paralysis in Regent's Park in an invalid chair, prappsd up with pillows, pale and careworn, bat with a hopeful smle on his face a man who could have spoken a really pertinent word on the subject, and told the right reverend prelate and great art critic that he owed his life, and his wife and children' their rescue from bereavement and penury, to 6ome of these experiments on living animals which they so roundly condemned. The case of this man bas been watched with intense interest by the medical profession, for it is of a unique description, and inaugurates a new era in cerebral surgery; and, now that it has been brought to a successful issue, it seems desirable that a brief outline cf it should be placed before the general public, because it illustrates vividly the benefits that physiological explorations may confer on mankind, shows how speedily useful fruit may ha gathered from reearches undertaken in tb-j pursuit cf knowledge and with no immediate practical aim, and reveals impresiiveiy tbe precision and veracity of modem medical science. This case, then this impres3ive aud Ulcerative case- is that cf a man who, when admitted to the hospital for epilepsy and paralysis, presented a group of symptoms which pointed to tumor of the brain a distressing and hitherto necessarily fatal malady, for the diacnosis or recognition of which we are indebted to bedside experince and pest mortem examination. Bat while clinical and pathological observations have supplied us with Knowledge which enables us- to detect the existence of tumors of tbe brain, they have not afforded us any clew to the situation of these morbid growths in the brain-mass, and it was not until Professor Ferrier had, by his experiments on animals, demonstrated tha realization of sensory and motor functions in tho cerebral hemispheres that the position of any diwased process by which they might be invaved conld be definitely determined. By the light of these experiments it is now possible in many instances to map out the rat of certain pathological changes in those bemieperes with as much neicety and certainty as if the skull and its coverings and linings had become transparent, so that the surface ol the brain was exposed to di rect inspection. And thus in the case to which I am referring Dr. Hughes Bennett, under whose care the patient was, guided by Ferrier's experiments, skillfully interpreted the palsies and convulsive movements which the man exhibited and deduced from them that a small tumor was lodged at one particular point in his "dome of thought," and was silently and relentlessly eating its way into surrounding textures. Not more surely do the ficetings of the electric needle intimate their origin and convey a meaning to the telegraph clerk than did the twitchings of this man's muscles announce to Dr. Hughes Bennett that a tumor of limited dimensions was ensconced at a particular point of a particular fold or convolution of the brain the ascending frontal convolution on the right side. Very brilliant diagnosis this, it may be remarked, and nothing more. The patient had the position in which he stood faithfully explainded to him. He was told that he labored under a malady which medicines were powerless to touch, and that if left unassisted ne mast die in a few months at latest, after prolonged sufferings similar to those which had already brought him to the verge of exhaustion, and which could only ce partially alleviated by drugs; but that cne outlet of escape, narrow and dangerous, but still an outlet, was open to him in an operation of a formidable natnre and never tefcre perfsrnied on a human
beirp. under which he might perhaps sink and die. but from which he might perhaps obtain complete relief. The roan, who had faith in his doctor and no fine-spun scruples about availing himself of the results of vivisectional discoveries, eagerly chose the operation. The 25th ult., accordingly, Mr. Godlee, surgeon to University College Hospital, in the midst of an earnest and anxious band of medical men, made aa opening in tbe scalp, skull and brain-membranes cf this man at tbe point where Dr. Hughes Bennett had placed his divining finger, the print corresponding with the convolution where be declared the peccant body to ba, and where sure enough it was discovered. In the Rubstance of the brain, exactly where Dr. Hcghes Bennett had predicted, a tumor the size of a walnut was found a tumor which Mr. Godlee removed without difficulty. The man !s now convaletcent, having never bad a bad symptom, end;tbe full of gratitude tor the relief afforded hici. He has been snatched from the grave and from much suffering, and there is a gocd prospect that he will be restored to a life i f comfort and usefulness. In tbat case he will be a living monument cf the valce cf vivisection. The medical profession will declare with one voice that he owes his life to Ferrier's experiments, without which it would have been impossible to localize his malady or attempt its removal, and that his case opens up new and far-reaching vistas of hopefulness in brain f nrpery. Many men and women will henceforth, there is reason to anticipate, be saved from prolonged torture and death by a kind of- treatment tbat he a been made practicable by the eacrifice, under ansehetics, of a fpw rabbits and monkeys. I am, sir, yorr obedient servant. F. R S. Cieielard as a Diamatlc Critic. I Washington Critic. 1 President-elect Cleveland is credited with tte origin of Robson ana Crane's new play, which will be brought out at Albangh's Grand Opera House next week. Mr. Clevesnd saw the comedians play the "Two Drcmics" in the "Comedy of Errors" last win ter, and was so Impressed with the singular resemblance of the twin brothers that he suggested to them the advisability of getting up a sort of modernized idea of the same droll subject, and even pointed out a certain strange oid novel from which a very funny play might be constructed. This advice has resulted in the making of a comedy called "Tbe Cherubs," in which Messrs.
