The meeting of this association announaed to bo held in Chicago yesterday looked forward to with a great tie tyand interest, and fearB are that the Transcontinental whioh was established only months after long and tedious ue cannot longer be maintaii Chicago Times of the 8th says: Dnion Pacific claims that uniei Irauscontinental agreement, it is penalties for a violation ot Under the now arrangement wiih the roads east of the Missouri river the i itter have virtually beccmo a art of tho Ui Pacific. All the rates on west bound business are made by tho roads east of the Missouri river, and in making them the Union Pacific has no voice. Conjentiy, if any of these roads should violate the California or Transcontinental rate, the Union Pacific, under tl agreement, would be held responsibl responsibility which, under present condition of affiairs, it is not willing to assume. It is therefore, to maki the terminus of the Transi association at Chioags instead of at thu Missouri nver, as at present, and tafet in nil the mads between the Missouri riier and Chicago.

The Union Pacino further claims that the Burlington, under the pic sent agreement, has an advantage, because it controls it own line through from Chicago to Denver, and, in connection with tbe Denver Rio Gr Central Pacific, has a route to California entirely indenaudent of the Union Pacific audits allies east of the Missouri. As ihe Adton and the Illinois Central are interested in the Pacific coast business it is also proposed to take them into the Transcontinental association, and thty hiivo been invited to attend tho meeting. The Alton officials Bay they cannot yet tell position they will assume. They want to learn first under what com their road is. to be admitted.

The Burlington and Denver Grande people are strongly opposed to ti reorganization of the association on th plan proposed, and they emphatically de dare that they will never submit to it, a it is simply another scheme tho part ot the Union Pacific com bination to deprive them of a po of their through The are of the opinion thai ihe new issue h. been raised for the sole purpose of break ing up the association in order to en nble the combination roads to fight then on the California as well as tho Nebraska, Colorado and Utah busines The Santa Fe and Northern Pacific wil probably Bide with the Burlington, as the cannot effard to allow the Union Pacifi combination to obtain mor6 power anc advantages than it already possesses.

They further 'they do not mean to take sides in favor cf eniwr the Union Pacific combination or luffliigton and Denver Rio Grande, an independent position. out, however, that th6 Central Pacific proposes to tako sides with the Union Pacific combination against tne BnrlingtoD, and that the intention is to have the Centril Pacific make an offensive and defensive treaty with tha Union Pacific combination in case the Transcontinental association goes out of existence.

It is hardly probable, the Central Pacific will do It cannot afford to take pncli a step, because it would conioel tho Burlington and Rio Grande to extend their line to San Fran- Cisco, which can be built within six months. The Control Pacific at present controls all the lines in California, and it ia not likely to take a tep that wonld necessarily lead to breaking up of the monopoly it now enjoys in that state.

This would prevent the Litkavvp.oua from issuing through bills of lading or cars beyond its own lius. It would have to break bulk at Buffalo Besides, to pay local rates for freight sent by it over connecting lines.

It is the I Burlington's intention to secure all tin bosinefs it can at Union Pacific points and have it shipped looally by the Union Pacific to Council Bluffs. From the lattei point to Chicago it will make such a rate as will equal the through rates by the combination roads. Tho Burlington is daily receiving letters from prominent Western shippers, urging it to stand firm against the combination, and promising to back it up witn ail the means at their command. Settling Freights. A meeting is to be held to-day at Milwaukee of freight representatives from the Milwaukee St.

Paul, Chicago Northwestern, Omaha, Wisconsin Central, and all lines interested in business originating at or destined to Chippewa Falls, Eaa Claire, Menomonie or Stillwater, for the purpose of adjusting rates and agreeing necessary matters relating to the traffic at tho several points named. When these matters shall have been settled, it can be said that Wisconsin freights are as settled as those of any part of the country, or ia fact as near that point as repeated conferences arid final arguments by all the railway lines can make them, as the entire business of Wisconsin points as well as ail of that west of the Mississippi river Will then be npon an agreed basis of rates.

9. committee ap- pointed to select and secure a successor for Mr. ViUard as president of the Northern Pacific railroad are not yet ready to report. Senator Sherman said to-day that the office had not been tendered to him as reported, but that it had mentioned to him by directors and stockholders. He said to them that he would gladly undertako the duties of the office ha could not properly aot as president of tho road while remain- ing senator, and he regarded it as his duty to his colleagues and constituents to Btick to his present post.

No indebtedness to the Oregon Railway Navigation company has been d.scover- ed since the $340,000 due from Mr. Villiard was made good by tho transfer of his house, but Mr. T. Jefferson Cooledge, the new president of the company, has appointed Mr. G.

O. Morrison to investigate the condition of the road and its affairs on the Pacific coast. He will start to-morrow. Washington, Jan. Sherman's attention having been drawn to the report that the office of president of tha Northern Pacific had oetn tendered to him and declined said: "The office has not been tendered me but i tho matter has been mentioned by leading stockholders and directors.

I have said while I would gladly undertake the duties of the office and have the highest opinion TEE ST. T'AUL DAILY GLOBE, THUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 30. 1884 of the value and success of the road, yet I could not with due regard to my constituei and colleagues in the tenato re3ign tho position of senator, nor could I properly, while senator, act as president of the company." Cuttinu Rates, Nkw Yobs, Jan. was received nt the trunk line headquarters to-day, that the Chicago Alton had cut passenger ratis from points on to Missouri river eastward, to thi extent of $4 in through tickets. It is supposed that this reduction is made in a spirit of retaliation for certain taken by the trunk lines to prevent the jyment of commissions to scalpers, and a demoraliztioa of the railroaos.

The position of the trunk lines is, that they have the right to name the conditions under which they will sell tickets for western loads. If tbe western roads were to sell tickets through other agencies on more favorable terms than the trunk lines can sell, it is thought it would lead to a discrimination between the connections of the trunk and finally to a war of rates, and great loss of revenues. The trunk lines think that the payment of commissions to middle men is pernicious, and not in the interest of the railroads or of tbe if the railroads can transact business at less than the published rates the public should have the benefit and not the middle men. There is aiso a suspicion expressed that road agents and commission agents are often in collusion to defraud the railroad compauies and tin pablio of their just dues. The best railroad the country, they say, are utterly opp rothe commission oystem.

The lines, it is claimed, are supported in their position by and act with tbo roads in the joint executive committee, embracing nearly all the roads east ot the Mississippi river and Chicago, and by all the western roads except the Cuioago Alton and the Chicago Rock Island. Although advices received did not state that the Rock Island road would make a similar reduction in rates, it is thought it will soon follow the example of the Alton if it has not already done so. A war of the passenger rates west, which this action will possibly precipitate is viewed with no little apprehension among railroad men. It is not known what action will be taken the railroads in joint executive committee to moot this reduotion, but it is said assurances have been given by all of them that they will refuse to transact any through business with non-conforming roads. Commissioner Fink announced that on and after Monday next the roads in tho joint executive committee will not bo parties to buy any through bills of lading issued by tbe Delaware, Lackawanna Western railroad.

This is in accordiir.ee with the dicision of the meeting of the trunk line executive committee, on December 31. It did not admit the Delaware, Lackawanna Western into the pool on account of its exorbitant because had made numerous contracts for transportation at reduced rates, sorm-. of which extended over a year, and which President Sioan insisted on carrying. Tr.int. ontinental a ociation.

Chicaoo, Jan. 9. meeting of the Transcontinental association, comprising the lines west of the Missouri river to the Pacific coast, held here to-day. The meeting b6gan at 3 o'clock and lasted till evening. Tho main object of the meeting was to consider tho proposition to move the terminus of the association from the Missouri river to Chicago by admitting ah the connections of the Union Paoifio under the recently ratified agreement.

ThiB will be to combine all roads west of Chicago to the Pacific coast against Burlington and its allies in Colorado and Utah, or to orco the Burlington to join the alliance and pool all its competitive business west of the Missonri river, which it has thus far refused to do. Little progress was made in the rea; question at issue. At the opening of the meeting, Clark, of the Union Pacific, presented a resolution to the effect that the Rosk Island, Northwestern, Wabash, Alton, St. Paul, Burlington and the St. Loais San Francisco roads be admitted to the Transcontinental association on equal terms with those already in.

This was laid over without action tiil to-morrow. The remninder of she session was occupied in consideration of the rules of the association. Ic is believed toe session will oover several da-'S. The impression is, that unless the Missouri river lines are admitted to the transcontinental aesociatien. The Union Paoifio will withdraw therefrom.

It is not believed they will be admitted, as it is argcted it would make tho association unwieldy in size and would involve the Central and Northern Pacific in a war with the Burlington and subject the former to danger of having its lines paralleled to the Pacific coast. The cut in rates at Kansas City on the passenger business to New York began this morning and resulted in a meeting of tho general passenger agents of the Missouri riyer lines here to-day, for the purpose of considering the question of the maximum of commissions to common points. No conclusion was reached, and tho meeting will be continued to-morrow. Information is received here to-day that the Waoash, Burlington and Missouri Pacific roads met the cat at Kansas City made by the Alton Rook Island. 6f.

K. Harnes' Successor. Telegram to the Globe. Chicago, Jan 9. officials of the Northern Paoific held a meeting to-day at the Grand Pacific hotel, at whioh a successor of G.

Barnes, and H. C. Davis, recent assistant general passenger p.gent of the Manitoba road will succeed Mr. F6e. The official announcement has not yet been made, bnt it ia understood that the matter has been positively determined upon.

Mr. Fee has an enviable r60ord as a thoroughgoing passenger man, and his promotion is a fitting mark of appreciation.

GBAJfDJURY itORK. Six Indictments Againat OiVenders Found iiurderer of Kask the Principal One. The grand jury was actively at work yesterday. The membsrs of it seem to haye lost no tima at all, but proceeded at once to business like industrious law abiding, energetic people, determined to do their duty in expidetious and workmanlike manner as all grand juries ought to. They disposediof six cases, and as the testimony was sufficient in all of them upon which to find an indictment no trouble was found in coming to a conclusion in each.

Thi case of Sor6nson charged with the murder of John Kask, was one of the principal and most important that was brought to tho attention of the jury yesterday. The facts of the case are well known to the readar3 of the Globe, having occurred only about a week or two ago. It was tho result of a drunken family brawl. The people lived on Dayton's bluff, and while the party waa punishing a quantity of alcohol, Kask, the murdered man, clled Sorensonvile aud charged him with improper coaaduo: with his, (Kask'?) wife, when the former struck the latter, and beat him, injuring him so that he died the next day. Borenson immediately fled and was captured in Stillwater.

The evidence was such that the jury had no trouble in finding a true bill. No trouble was met with in finding an indictment against A. Cross for stealing an overcoat from Merrill Ryder, on Jackeon street. An indictment was also found against Connelly and Kruder, charged with robbing an old man named Neally, in the Market house shed about two weeks ago. Neally had a stand in the old shed where he sold small articles.

Daring the day the two defendants went to him and talked about buying him out, and finally paid him a small sum of money to bind the bargain. In the latter part of the day and In the evening lhey met Neally again and talked and drank with him, and finally knocked him down, beat him and robbed him of $117. The two defendant ware fully identified. The witnesses before the grand jnry were Mr. Neally, his wife, aud daughter and the police officer.

The well known Nick Klinger, was also investigated on a charge of robbing a Swede several weeks ago out on the Fort road. The same with Eureka, who stole an overcoat from Rothschild, the clothing man on Seventh street between Sibley and Jackson streets. C. Adams was also before the jury on a charge of stealing an overcoat from James Horan at the corner of Seventh and Rosabel streets. This finishes up a pretty full day's work for the jury when it adjourned and wiii resume its labors to-day.

Striatals Printers. The compositors on the Vottazeitung struck yesterday under the following circumstances: Mr. Lienau left the night before for the east, and yesterday morning, while he was out of town, a committer of three from the compositors waited upon the gentleman who has charge of the basiness during Mr. Lienau's absence, and made a demand upon him for an advance of cents psr thousand. The price paid waa thirty five cents per thousand, and they demanded the decision to be rendered within an hour.

The gentleman replied to the committee that he had no authority to either increase or decrease the pay of the men, and of he could not comply with their request, but that he would telegraph immediately and as aoon as he got a reply, which would be, probably, sometime during the day, he would communicate the same to tbe men. The committee refused this and demanded an immediate refusal or assent to the demand, and, as the gentleman oould not do either the one or the other the men all struck and went out of the office. Tha men in the job room went to work, and the paper was got out as usual, though about an hour late. Subsequently a dispatch was received from Mr. Lienau, but ho did not authorize tbe increase demanded.

On the he will fill up with new printers. Keen Warm. Cheap fuel at J. A. Baley's, 360 Jackson and corner of Rice and Martin: Maple, Oak and Birch, Mixed Ash and Elm, Bass, 8.58.

Paul was held Wednesday evening hotel. Owing to the solicitations of their patrons, the members of the society during the pa3t month have been investigating whether any connection existed between the sewerage system of Si. Anthony hill and the spread of diphtheria ana typhoid fever. Dorion made special inquiries regarding this point, and could find no instance in which the eewers had any i influence upon the health of his families. His cases of diphtheria existed where no possible connection with the sewerage system could be traced.

He did not think the prevailing types of oiseases were influenced by sewer emanations. Dr. alarm is excited by the markod odor arising from many of the catch basins on the hill. The same may be observed at the older catch basins in other parts of tho city. Themajoti'y of his cases of typhoid fever and diphtheria occurred in families where no connection existed between house and sewer.

Cold and exposure he considers to be a potent cause of diphtheria. Dr. Hutchinson: Consider that the opening of sowers without sufficient water to flush them to be very reprehensible, the overflow from sinks and cisterns being insufficient. The most cases of diphtheria occurred away from line of sewers. In many instances he could trace no-possible source of infection.

Dr. Craddcek: Sower gas per ae incao of producing diphtheria or typhoid, some other conditions are besides filth accumulations and decomposition. Sewers r.fi'ord an exceiIf nt nidus for poisons to propagate themselve3. Sawer gas not to be feared for itself but for what it may carry. Resolved, That the members of thi3 society, after a full investigation, conclude that the system of sewerage recently constructed on St.

Anthony hill has not as yet contributed to producing or sustaining diphtheria or typhoid fever. Case? occurring along the line of sewers occasioned alarm. The majority of cases imve developed in places away from any possible contamination from the sewers. Wo consider the use of those sewers any Isngth of time without pr, ing as directly prejudicial to health, and it is incumbent upon the thorities to see that the sewers are By atioaUy flushed. A JPOOB GRIST.

ASeody Criminal Calendar this Horning. The black maria's springs were not at ail sprung by the load it carried up to the market house yesterday morning audits occupants hardly won a casual glance from the street gamins who were on the watch to lift apples and walnuts which any daring dealer might leave hi3 eye off of in front of the stalls in edifice. A few dealers from the country with split wood at $2 the load with the best slicks on top, came up and gave a suburban grin at the unloading and gazed admiringly upon the braes buttODS of the officers in charge, bat the circus evidently had no great charms for them. Thomas Lee was brought up first for stealing a cap from the front of a store He undertook to tell how he was going by when the article fell, from a nail on his his head, but was choked off by his hoxor and given ihirty days at the workhouse as a New Years present. Goltlieb Hoalele for selling unmarketable swine and Peter Newgard and Louis P.

Swanton for hogging money out of poor laborers and sending them down to Winona for imaginative winter jobs, were given until to-day to nntie themselvts from tho meshes of the law into whioh thoy had fallen, if their finger nails should prove long enough. Thomae Horan and Wm. Davit explained thair littla joke of taking Henry Cornaok's gold watch and chain in fun so emphatically, that his honor dismissed the charge of larceny which originally brought them into duranca. Tbo audience kind of felt as though they hAd somehow paid for that fua in something as substantial as a poultice to their accuser. John Martin having undertaken to convert a public street into a back yard of his own, to the effect of hindaring and obstructing travel, paid his $2 and costs therefor like a little man, and will probably to get square, kill any neighbor's chickens that put claw over the boundary lines of his sweet home hereafter.
