While the shipments for the ensuing week will not show any marked failing off from those of the past week, it is expected that for the subsequent few weeks there will be a perceptaoie decrease. On all sides, however, expressions of deep satiaf action are heard, except from a few shippers who still demand rates than those that allow the lines a profit Una subject of export rates will probably be disposed of by tne Eastern trunk lines, while the Board of Trade's request for a new style of way-bill will probably not cause the Coicatro lines much worry, as It has been discovered that the way-blU proposed affects the export line almost wholly, and has no material effect upon the lines out of this city, so that the Eastern roads will be the ones to dispose of the subject.

COLORADO-UTAH ASSOCIATION. Commissioner Midgley's recent mission to St Louis has already borne good fruit A better feeling exists between all the Southwestern jroads and the 8t Louts and San Francisco Road that removes all semblance of hostility or hostile criticism. Besides this negotiations were concluded yesterday whereby the Bt Louis and San Francisco Road becomes a member of tne Colorado- Ltah Trafflo Association, the membership to date from Nov. 10. The Bt Louis and San Francisco Road ia granted a stated amount as a subsidy that will be paid regu larly whether the company earns tuat amount in the pool or not This practioallv places the Colorado-Utah Association on a better footing than it has ever before en Joyed, anil promises much for a permanent peace in ooutnwesteru railway circles ana in Colorado-Utah traffic THE SOCK ISLAND.

Nothing was done In grain freights yester day and the tonnage which has been held here in commission in anticipation ot a late spurt was ordered Into winter quarters. The big Bteainbarge City of Borne will be laid up at onoe, as will nearly all the other lower lake ateambarges which are not yet un loading. Of the lumber fleet only a few vessels which have been partly provided with cargoes are being kept in commission. A ma- rity ot the neet nowever. is beinr stripped at their docks or are already stripped when they arrive from the lake.

This was done with the schooners Meivina ana A Atosner yesterday. Vesselmen recognize that the season is about ended and that there will be no business in the future exoept for the fleets of steam lumber rafts which ply be tween Chicago and the east shore, ine Robert Howiand, ot this class, was ordered out ot commission yesterday, out omy because her owner's saw-mill at Muskegon has been closed for the season. CLEVELAND. Special Telegram to in. Inter Ocean.

Cleveland, ouio. aov. zi. uoarters re ported to-day were: Stmr Swain and con sort Maxwell, ore. Marquette to uieveiana- $1-45; stmr C.

H. Green and consort Rosa Sonsmito, coal, Ashtabula to Chicago, Matue Bell, coal, Cleveland to cmcutro. The Swa'u and MaxweU will leave Mil waukee lor Marquette to-morrow, and wm undoubtedly be tne last vessel to load at that port this season. Their rate, 45 per ton, la the highest recorded this season, and stands in refreshing contrast to some 70 and 75 cent loads taken during the summer. The last rate quoted on Marquette previous to this charter was $L25.

CURIOUS CHANGES. Masters ot vessels which arrived from points tar down the west shore yesterday, state that they encountered very curious weather on the trip up, particularly between Milwaukee and the Sturgeon Bay Canal. When they cleared from that place the wind was blowing a iresu gale from tue north ward and the vessels bowled along riirnt merrily, to the satisfaction ot the crew, who knew that their seasou of toil was nearly at an end. They continued thus upward of three hours, when suddenly they seemed to run out of the balf-gaie Into a comparatively amootn sea. Canvas, which an Instant before was swelling and straining under the influence of the wind, dapped and shivered lifelessly, and the vessels seemed to lose all way.

For hours the fleet was thus becalmed, but astern tbey could easily see by the sky and the water tuat there wax fair wind and plenty ot it Finally a brisk southwesterly breeze, which afterward freshened into a gale, sprung up, and the fleet had no difficulty in working up the shore. This is one of tne peculiar meteorological phenomena which vessel-masters observe often, but they can not explain them. BUILDING NECESSARY. Ship-bull ding and ship-yard work will not be very brisk during the coming winter If the calculations of yard-owners do not fall altogether. There will be very little rebuilding and less new work than ever before.

However, there will be considerable small work in the way of minor repairs, suon as e-aulking, new decks, new stanchions, new rigging or pernaps renewing aeiecuve spots in hulls. There are hundreds of Teasels on the lakes which are in need of thorough re building to make them sea-worthy. It is an undisputed fact that the lake fleet la ia worse condition now than it ever was before; that there are more vessels in need of repairs and rebuilding. The reason ot this is apparent There have been three successive seasons which have brought only disaster and financial reverses to owners and very lew of them are in a condition to lebnild their property. A glance at this year's vessel-register is sufficient to show how lake vessels are deteriorating, and next year's register will show ever a worse condition of Uiinga PORT LIST.

Fully 4.00O people were at ths Yale grounds ia the afternoon, and saw the prettiest, most scientific, and hotly contested foot-ball game ever played. In the first inning Yale had everything her own way, and kept the ball close to Princeton's goal all of the time, making eeveral attempts for goals from the field, and punting the ball Princeton's goal many times. Near the close of the Inning Yale's quarter-back passed the ball to Watklnson, who made a goal from the field.

In the second Inning Princeton played a better game, and although Yale checked her for thirty-five minutes, her half-back, Lamar, made a remarkable ran, dodging all of Yale's eleven, and made a touch-down from which a goal was kicked.

That Lucky Baldwin ex pected to win even more than this when he started from his ranch in California is even probable. And that several of the horses in his stable proved a disappointment to him is a well-known fact to turfmen. Mission Belle and Brandy wine in particular costing him large sums of money. The fact that the first-named had been a sensational performer in her 2-year-old form was enough to give him great faith in her 3-year-old abilities, while he backed the latter on the strength of his mother's performances, he being a son of the famous MoUie McCarthy. The winnings of his stable, which embraced eighteen head of horses, were distributed as follows: Vo- lante, the ii-y ear-old bay colt, by Grinstead out of bister Anne, faced the flag eignteen times In all, and was first in six races, sec ond in seven, ana tnira in lour.

He faced the flag fourteen times in alt, and was twice first, thrice second, and twice third, winning for his owner Primero, a two-year-old chestnut coit by Gnustead, started eight times, and was twice first snd once third, placing: to bis credit the suinot $2,500. Molly McCarthy's Last, a two bay filly by Rutherford, started six times and won two races, placing $2,400 to her credit on her owner's books.

Louis Jitpublican gives tne following expression ot Mr. Corrlgan's views on the subject ot weights: Mr. Corrlgan is glad to believe that there is a general and growing tendency to raise our scales ot weights, and says that such a change cannot be made too soon to suit htm.

He has learned by ample experience tuat mors horses are broken down and ruined by the vaulting about and misusing they art subjected to at tue hands of inexperienced and incapable lads than by the carrying ot weigoia at ths top ol our scale, and tne raising of tbe same br. say, seven pounds, would put nothing too much on a good horse. Tne Kansas City turfman sees also how many a good horsemau Is thrown awav jast as he bad acquired a thorougn knowledge of pace and of race riding, on account ot a very siigat excess ot avoirdupois, a tact wmon robs many a uxeful boy ot tbe one goal a belief In wnicn would keep him faithful, honest, and hard working. As a youngster hnds himtelt tipping the beam nearer and mors nearly to the nunarea weigm ne loses heart, foresees bis speedy relegation to tbe melon patch or cornfield, and ens tails a victim to temptation. It is dif ficult to advanoe any argument ot real advantage In very light weigata, exoept mat of fast time i or rcoora: out uus is so eouateroslanoea by lis drawbacks that it should be sacrificed as speedily as possible.

Mr. Corruran has as yet employed no looker tor next season, and Is keenly on the lookout He pava the highest kind of tribute to Murphy, who, he says, talked less sad thonght less of tbe work lis did sad ths knowledge he Possessed than any Jockey he ever knew great points ana be no doubt leeis nis loss asemy.

Intense Excitement at Atlanta Oyer tbe Election Which Takes Uace Kext Wednestlaj. Four Thousand More Votn Registered Than ta the Presidential Etecuoa Tse Colored Men. ATLANTA CITXXSB EXCITEMENT. Atlaxta, Nov. 2L On Wednesday next will close the most remarkable contest ever carried on in any Southern city, wheu Atlanta will decide whether the sals ot liquor shall be prohibited or not For ten years temperance agitation has been carried on la Georgia, which has so far succeeded that now out of 137 counties of the State the sale of liquor only allowed ia fifteen.

These fifteen counties are tbe seats of large cities, where the liquor element has large property interests at stake. The principle by which the agitation was carried on 1 known as that of local option. It has been broached in each community as a moral and polios measure, thus meeting support of both, political parties, both colors, and the entire moral element of society. It was not until the movement reached the large cities that any serious opposition was met These local options were held under special acts of the legislature. The business interest ot the large cities was alwava strong enough to prevent the passage) of such local option act, so far as tbey were themselves concerned, hence the Legislature passed a general local option bill, under Which tbe ordinaries of the coantlea were required to order elections upon the petition of a given number of citizens.

The first city to which this was applied was Atlanta, An election on the question was ordered by Ordinary Calhoun, on the petition of 2.800 voiers, to take place on Nov. 25. Then began a canvass which has developed moat remark- -able feature TfU HIGHEST TOTE tVEB CAST even in a Presidential year was a little over 5,000. The registration In this election has run up to 9,000. The Prohibitionists organized a strong committee, backed by nearly all the preachers in the city, with Senator Colquitt.

District Attorney B. H. Hill, and other prominent men actively at work. The brunt of the battle, bo wever, has fallen on the shoulders of the Rev. J.

Ii. 1 Hawthorne, the celebrated Bantist nreaoher the Rev. Sam Jones, Colonel Sam Small, the Rev. Atticus Hayirood, the Rev. W.

H. Felton, and others, have for tea days been addressing audiences of from 5,000 to 8,000 in Sam Jones' gospel tent Tax ASTi-PEOHiam xisrs have been equally active, being led by Julius Brown, son of Senator Brown, the Hon. Albert Cox. and many others. They have been particularly active in committee work.

The most remarkable political feature of the campaign has been the breaking up ot party and color lines. The meetings ot both parties are attended by whites and blacks, and. earnest efforts have been made by both sides to capture the colored voters. For this pur- addressed large bodies of colored men, but they have imported prominent colored speakers, such as Blsnop Campbell, of Philadelphia, Bishop Turner, and ex-4Jon-gressman Jeff Long. The ladies, too, have taken up the contest with vigor.

In a word. every elemental society, all ages, sexes and colors, are etirred np, and nothing else la talked of but prohibition. The general feeling is that if Atlanta goes for prohibition the motion will spread widely through all tho Southern States. SWORE OFF FOR ONE TEAR. AX ENTIUg CASADIAX CrrC Mottbial, Nov.
