EAST BOUND FREIGHT. bedcctcon wool bates. The Local Committee of East bound Trelirht Traffio mot at Joint Agent Moore's office yesterday afternoon to discuss the situation.

All the lines were questioned as to their contracts and rates, the result being that they all claimed that'tney were maintaining all tariffs except those on wool, that la, out of Chicago. It was boldly asserted. Uiat both the I'eoria, Decatur, and Evans Viile. and tiie Indianapolis, Bloomintrton, and Western Koatis were catting considerably out of I'eoria, that New York rate of 22 cents bad been cut down to ltia cents, thereby hurting all East bound tratrio from the Weak It was found that all sorts of rates were being made on wool. This subject was thoroughly discussed.

Tno committee found that the following resolution, adopted by the committee of eighteen, at Niagara Falls on July 2, empowered it to reduce the tariff offlciailj.

The object of the meeting was to consider charges preferred by the Indianapolis, Blooiriingtou and estern Road against U10 Cincinnati, Hamiltou and Dayton and the Panhandle Roads, and of the Louisville, Albany and Chicago against the Ktnka kne Line. It was denied that the three accused lines had been guilty of irregularities in the issue and sale of tickets. Tne charges against the Cutcago, Hamilton and Darton and tne Panhandle Roads were dixmisecd for Want of proper evidence, while that against the Kankakee was laid over in order to secure further evidence. No other action was taken. PASSSNG3R TKAFFIO.

The Teteraa Talks About General Grant and Ills Book Some thlua: About His Own Idts nry AOklrm. Tm a soldier, not a politician." said General "Tecumseh" Sherman, as at the Grand Pacific yesterday the old warrior offered bis good naturea apology for neither knowing nor caring' much about paliUoa. Bald the General: "I am on my way to Lake Hlnnetonka, where my family now is, and I stopped over to arrange some matters with General Chet lain regarding our reunion of the Society of tbe Army of the Tennessee that will be held here Sept 9 and 1U It is all arranged now, and I think we shall have a beautiful meeting. We shall not throw it open so much to the general publio as heretofore.

It is a reunion of soldiers, you see, to talk over old war timea and keep alive our old associations, as well as the organisation itself. Yea, I have been Its President since its origin in 1808. How many shall we have here? Oh, yes, over 2OO20O. I think. The first day we shall transact our private business in some rooms Mr.

Drake will give at here In the Grand Pacific, and in the evening in some public place, for everybody to near, there will be a public address by General Sanborn. tee nxi KVCNINO we shall have a banquet of the Society." The General got to talking about the civil service institution, and he seemed cordially willing to give the system bis approval. He declared he believed it in the interests of good government, and it seemed to him to lurmstt a great relief to Senators and Congressmen, who had but to refer tueir petitioners for office to toe civil service commission for an answer. Sold tno reporter: "General, does it strike you that a good many Republican soldiers have been re moved from officer "No." promptly replied the veteran, "I don't think there have been. They seem to have been very moderate iu that, and not to have removed a man except for qualifications." The subject was introduced of Wade Hampton's reoent letter regarding the particular service of bis troops at Manassas, whereat General Sherman speedily said: "General Hampton is undoubtedlp a truthful man, and I do not question that imbodea is honest, but that battle was ten miles lomr, from Surrey Church to Manassas, and a man is liable to write from the position be occupied.

My men were new and did not have sufficient tenacity; but they were not driven by Jackson; tney withdrew, and his men were not as a "stone wall." but they stood behind a stone wall in tact" "Have you seen General Grant lately?" "No. not since December, but I heard three days ago from Fred, and THEY FEL VEKT APPBEHEXSIYE about the General. Save tue cancer.in his throat be is sound in his lungs, heart, and beliv, and I think he will live several montiis "He has written a valuable book. General yes, and he has written it mostly with nis own hand, but still it coinrs too late, that in, I do not mean that it really is too lute, but it would hava been better if he could have written it twenty, fifteen, or ten years ago when be was fresh. A man commundinir everything is better qualihed than a coioucl to write such a book, for he kuows ail things.

1 feel even now. In view of all tue material that I had, that I have little to add to my memoirs." "Snail you contribute any war articles to the t'eitturyf" "No; they have offered me a high price, but I shall not do it; such wors is too ephemeral; it will not last Put it into books that you can always find." "Shall you ever publish again?" "No. I thiuk not, tnough 1 may add an appendix to my memoirs, and perhaps insert something here and there." "Snail you put in anything about Jeff Davis?" asked the reporter somewhat Irrelevantly. And tbe General shot out nis reply with a soldier's sledge hammer emphasis: "If Jeff Davis is a patriot, I'm a traitor, and I ain't. If Jeff Davis is a patriot, Abraham Lincoln is a traitor, ana if God ever made a pure man Abraham Lincoln was he.

Oh no, I have nothing to do with Davis. He saw fit to take up something I said to a Grand Army post No, 1 have never met him. I believe DAVIS IS HONEST, but his ambition led him into treason to his country." "You think Sheridan will have no trouble with the Indians?" "Ou no, 1 think nob You see the only way for an Indian to be honest Is to kill a white man's ox. There is no gatr.e left; the buffalo and the elk are gone. No, the Iudian question will be settled when he is given for his occupation a section of land and the remainder in vested for his beuerit" General Sherman got np to wish his visitor good day.

The same plain, gr.zzly oid bghter in fatigue dress he reinaius. He stands with his leet together, like the soldier he was trained, and his tall form appears perfectly at ease in black alpaca coat and low cut white vest, whereon army buttons declare the trade in which "Tecumsea" Sherman made his everlasting mark. When he talks he talks wita tbe utmost good humor and straightforward simplicity. He was speaking of his home iu St. Louis.

his house building, and the provision he wished to make for those thut remained when he was gone. When he mentioned his six children and seven grandchildren he came to speak of tne families of brother officers, men his peers In the service years ago, who passed away only to leave those dependent on them beggars for office at Washington, willing to work ten hours a day for $40 a month simply to get bread and meat Porty such Instances he said he could recall, and the tnought seemed to have its deep pathos as the once General of tne Army dwelt feelingly upon it. AS ORIENTAL BELLE. The mob of Chinese bondsmen and highbinders that infests the corridors round the Federal courts was much agitated yesterday afternoon by the appearanoe of a genuine belle from the Flowery Empire. The great majority of Chinese women who come to America are plebeians, with feet remarkable for their absence of instep and their immense cubic area.

These refugees from tne rice fields of Asia are generally dressed in plain plack tunics, and depend solely on the decoration of their hair to make them attractive. The belle who sought the Federal courts yesterday in hopes of being permitted to remain on American soil was dressed according to the most reoent Chinese fashion plates. Her hair was rolled and plastered into Indescribable folds and plaits, her tunic was cerulean, witn bright vermilion trimmings, and her lower garment dark blue, with embroidered figures, and so ample that it looked more like a petticoat than the typical trousers of tbe female coolie, the dress being so low that nothing was visible but the shoes, with thick felt soles, and the point of two heels as high and pointed as any worn by French belies of tne post century. The qneerly attired woman was many shades lighter in complexion than the 'Chinese females that are seen every day on the streets. The comeliness of her face was set off to better advantage by oontrast with tbe two dark skinned female attendants on whom she leaned, the unnatural smallness of her feet making it an Impossibility for ber to walk unaided.

She was far above tbe height of the average Chinese woman, and would have been reckoned tall among Americana Her face indicated superior Intelligence, and the manner in which the groups of male Chinese loungers dropped their habitual stolidity and gaped after ber showed that she was woman of mark in tbe Chinese community. She gave the name of La Ah Quain and furnished bonds in the sum of 91.500 to appear in the United States Circuit Court to prove ber right to become a resident of San Francisoo. She is said to be a relative of a prominent Chinese merchant and was accompanied by several of bar countrymen. Han ifranciiCQ CalL fast lixk kodto. The great bridge over the Ohio Elver at Henderson.

Grain Freights Still Remain Unchanged Through Boinona Competition for Cargoes. Agents Do Not Expect a Change lor the Be tar Very Soon. Lumber Freights Unchanged The Tilden liaised Tug Sunk Gossip Other Torts. FREIGHTS. There was no Improvement in grain freights yesterday owing to the competition between agents for the small amount of grain which was on the market for shipment.

It was generally conceded that freights were not better than I cent per bushel for corn to Buffalo, although agents engaged nothing but small lots for propellers to arrive. This rate is due altogether to ruinous competition fbr cargoes, it is not disputed that It agents were more cautious in their demands for grain they would undoubtedly receive better rates; that any effort to charter vessels which are not ready to load is sure to de moralize to an alarming extent. This has been exemplified on several occasions during the past week or two, but agents, as a rale, do not seem to profit by the lesson. The charters yesterday included two Buffalo propellers and three schooners for Kingston. The latter were straUrbt charters, while the cargoes reported for tne former embraced "lots" of every sin which have been engaged for a week past.

The propeller Chicago was reported for 72.0OO busnnfs of corn, and the propeller Delaware for 40.0U0 bushels of corn and 10,000 bushels of flax semL The schooners Bolivia, Nassau, aud Watertown were eugaged for 2 1,000 bushels of corn euch for Kineston at 3 cents per bushel, free of canal tolls. There was a fair demand tor canal tonnaire. but there were no vessels ou the market aside from the three mentioned in the foregoing. Tbe propeller Monteage and the schooners White Star ana Mystic Star will go to Escanaba fur ore as soon as they are unloaded. Lumber freignts were slightly duller.

There was a irood deal of tonnaire on the market, and a great deal of it has been lying iu ordinary for several daya AFIEE IN THE LAKE. The tug J. V. Taylor had a narrow escape last evening from sharing tbe fate wnicn overtook the little tug Ed L. Anthony in the lake a week ago.

The Taylor started down the lake at o'clock, and bad steamed about a mile beyond the crib when Captain Shea smelled smoke, which seemed to come from below decks. One of tbe crew made a similar discovery, and a search of the tug's bunkers was made in order to find out if the boat was on tire. The search was not a prolonged one, however, for the man hud sc cely gone into the tire hold wlieu flames burst through the floor of the pilot bou' and tne cabin, adjoining tne pilot bouse aft Captain Shea remained at tne wheel, however; be put the Tuyior around to run for tbe harbor, but just as she had started back be espied the steainbarge Swallow a quarter of a mile away. l'Ue master ot the Swallow had seen the fire on board tbe tug, and had slowed his boat down so the tug could overtake him He also had two lines of hose run from the Swallow's pumps, and when the burning tag arrived alongside too crew of the steainbarge were ready to play on the bra But for this timely assistance the Taylor would undoubtedly have beou burned to the water's edge. After she arrived Inside the fire was still burning.

It was not extinguished until several pours later in fact 1 he extent of the boat's damage could not be ascertained last night because her bunkers and decks were full of coal, but It was supposed that she was badly injured. It was a fortunate thing for the crew that the fire broke out before sue had trot a long distance in the lake, otherwise it might have resulted in a casualty. PKOPELLEE QUEBEC SUNK.

One of the scows of the tug O. B. Green's tow struck an obstruction in tne river yesterday and was so badly damaged that it bad to be placed in dry dock lor repairs. The schooner Elgin had her rudder smashed by collision with a dock in the South Branch. Vessel captains arriving in port yesterday report that they encountered a lively gale from the northwest off Milwaukee.

Many craft had to be run under bare polos, while others were hove to. The tug E. Bolton, sunk at Cleveland, has not been raised yet. The schooner S. J.

Tilden, which was sunk at Beaver Harbor, has been raised aud is now on her way to Cleveland. The United States steamer Michigan Is out on her annual cruise. She will not take in Chicago this season, and vesselmen are glad for reasons best known to themselves. The propeller Prldgeon is bound for Chicago towing the schooner Burton, Both are cool laden. The mate of the propeller Joe Perrett was kicked in the leg by a mule, which had been taken aboard, and his leg was broken in two places.

The managers of the various river tug lines are considering a plan to reduce river towing rates 40 per cent in order to compete with steambargel They could do so very easily if they would only establish a lower rate. POET LIST. ARRIVALS. Setar liars. Lndlnirton, lumber.

The Bank for Savings of tbe city ot Sow York and Robert Ooelet, holders of city bonds, have obtained sr preliminary lntunctlon restraining the sinking fund from issuing bonds, The city's present debt is 8120,000,000, ox about $14,000,000 In excess of the constitutional limitation of 10 per oent ot the assessable valuation of city property, unless the city shall be allowed to deduct aoout $34,000,000 of city oonos neia by the sinking fund. The court, in this suit, is called upon to decide tha latter point USE OP OPIUM. The Increased Rata of Dnty Cheeks Importa tion Official Fl urw. WAsHnrooir, July 17. A writer la the New York Sun publishes an article oa tbe Increase ot the habit of opium smoking, la which an attempt is made to prove by the offioial re turns showing the Importations of opium prepared for smoking, that the Increase la the rate of duty from to to $10 per pound had tbe effect to cheapen the price of opium, and therefore to increase tbe importations and the habit of smoking that article.

The writer In the Hun says: Tbe attention of Congress was called to the fact that In 1880 the Importations of opium for smoking purposes were 77,198 pounds, and those for 1883 were 288,153 pounds. Congress then attempted to check the traffic, and the dutv of $0 per pound was, in July, 1883. Increased to $1U The imports for 1884 fell to 1,060 pounds, and for the first six months of this yetrthey were practically nothing. Now," continues tbe writer, "has Congress checked opium smoking by this big duty? Jio. Tbe practice was never more prevalent and it is spreading ail over the oountry.

The action of Cougress bad tbe effect of advancing the duty and cheapening tne article." The figures used in this statement are correct, but the use the writer makes of them is misleading. The attention of Congres may have, been called to tlie fact that over 77,000 pounds were imported In the year ending June 30, 1880, but the attention ot the body could not nave been directed to the fact that 288.153 pounds were imported during the year ending June 30, 1883, because the act by which the duty was increased to $10 per pound was passed March 3 of that year, four months before tbe close of tbe fiscal year, ami at least six months before tne official figures for that year were made up Thn large Increase in the Importations in 18S3f opium lor smoking were due, not to tne increase In the smoking habit, but to tbe fact that it was proposed to add $4 per pound to the rate of duty then existing. In anticipation of the large Increase to, the rate of duty importers bought in unusually large quantities of opium tor smokidg in the interval between March 3, the date of the passage of the act. aud July 1. the date when it became operative.

This is shown by the official returns. Ot the 28.153 iiounds imported during tbe fiscal year of the entries for the last quarter ot thut year April, May, andJune were pound, which exceeds the entire ouantity untried during the preceding nine months of that year. As the proposed increase was known at least two months prior to the passage of tbe act it is fair to assume that importations for part ot February and all of March were in conse quence unusually lurge. It will be thus seen tnat tne increased 1 in Donation ot opium tor amoklug in 1883 was not owing to the increase of the opium habit, as aliened, but to tbe fact that advantage was taken by im porters ot the four months' time intervening between the date of the passage and tue aate bxed for the operation of the act increasing tue rate of duty to lay in large supplies of smoking opium. THE IVPOBTS.

The annexed tauie saows the number of pounds of greenor gum opium and opium Erepareu lor smoaiug importea into the n.ted States during the liscal years Indi cated, tbe figures for 1885 being for tue nine months ending March Ji last: Gum opium. Smoking onlnm. 1879 27.o54 60 618 ls90 77.1ii 3i.09 76.416 lfB 7.1 J6 llMi.Jlt lSfSJ 181 l.OOti 1S85 Jia.431 r.stimaung the enure importation of smoking opium for 1885 at 30. OOO, would give a total importation lor the past three fiscal years of 319,219 pounds, an annual average of 100.410. which is about the quantity imported in 1883.

in explanation ot nis theory tnat tne in creased rate of duty on smoking opium has reduced the revenue receipts about 11,000,000 per annum, without cnecking the opium baoit, tne writer in the dun says: "The imports of crude opium, which is used to manufacture mor uine aud quinine and other drugs, are daily scorning larger. The duty on that kind of opium is only $1 per pound. Since this duty ot 110 was imposed anew industry has sprung up on the Pacific coast It Is tne manufacture of smoking opium from the crude article. This industry is carried on very extensively in Calilornia. It is doubtlons true that crude opium is pur chased in the manner and for the purpose alleged, but an examination of the figures above does not indicate that crude opium is so used to the extent charged.

Assuming that the imports fur the last tnree months of 1883 were proportionately as large as for 'the precoding nine montus. the imports for the year would be 334,578 pounds, and for the' past two years 589,324, against 612,185 pounds tor the two rears ending June 30. 1882. If tbe imports of both crude and smoking opium tor the three years ending June 30 last be compared with the three years ending June 30. 1SS2.

it wul be found that for the period first named the total was about 1,135,000 pounds, against 1,115.259 pounds for the last This does not snow much Increase. However, the official figures of imports show that the increased rate of duty on opium under the act of March 3, 1883, has checked tbe importation of that article, and has reduced it about 75 per cent The porcnase of the crude opium and its preparation for smoking is a matter with which Congress can not interfere. Tnat is a subject for State and municipal legislation. VALUABLE DISCOVERY. Special Teleeram to The Inter Ocean.
