THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1873, FREIGHT CONUNDRUMS. The Railrond wand Warchouse Commissioners’ Matineo. Some of |i|o Yuzzlers Propounded by Sharp Railrond Men, Tho Nnllrond and Warchouse Commiselonors woro iu sossion again yostorday, Thoy lLold o sort of rocoption, and rocolvod calls from anum- bor of prom{nont railrond managors, who sought information on the subject of the now law. Thoy rather puzzlod tho Commissionora by propound- ing conundrnms it would {ake & Pluladelphin lawyor to solve. . Thoy desired it to bo Informedof tho construo- tion put by the Commissioners on the law. For inatanco, it_was Inquired if the distance from Chicago to Pana, 228 miles by the Illinois Con- tral, wns nt tho rato of so much por car, could tho Bb. Louls Alton ~ and the Southesstorn chargo only the same rate to tho samo placo, tho distanco beiny the samo, or shiould tho Alton Road charge locs xatos to Bpringflold, and the Southoesastern local ralos thonce to Pana ? That was o pugzlor, which tho Commissionors did notanswer. Thon it was nuked if raflronds could bo uhlxgpnm under tho law ; thot is, if the Bockford, Rock Yeland & Bt. Louls Rond, for oxample, could ship on tho Northwestorn at Btorling tho grain collected on tho lino, or would tho porson who shipped tho grain originally continue tho ahlpflur until the grain reachod Ohioago ? Of coursn if the roads «could bo shippors, they could contract for shi; ing largo quauntities, and the local rates could go ovaded by ono road employing the other as its agent. Tuo railrond men thomeelyos loaned to tho opinion that railroads could not bo shippors wundor tho law; that they wero nlm;;l; agonta of tho porsons who origiually employe om to carry tho grain, Anothor intorosting question was, if one road, ®ay 100 miles long, oarried freight to a cor- ul; point, would two othor roads, ronchin; tho samo point: by a roundabout way, say 1! millos long, be allowed to carry the samo quan- tity of froight at tho samo rato as tha shorter route, aa they have dono_herotofore, in order to got somo of the business? The Commissioners, 08 in tho othor cases, declined to give a positive unswor, but the opinion seemed to be that tho shortor route would have to tako tho business and destroy competition by giving to onoroad a monopoly of tho froight now divided botween two roads, 8till another problom was presonted. The Northwoestern Road has a line to Fulton, on tho Mianlaalq’pi River, and rocolves grain from Winona ibulfi. The Milwaukee & St. Paul, howover, haa s direot line from Winona to Mils ‘waukeo, whenoo the grain is lh!pxcd Eost with- out coming through Chioage. At prosent the two lines compote, the Milwaukeo & St. Paul to take tho grain to NMilwaukoe, and the North- wostorn to bring it to Chicago. The rato from Fulton to Ohicago ia about double the rate from Winona to Chicago by the Northwestern, tho gmm quantity of grain—some milllons of ushels—coming from Winoun, onabling the rond to carry it at comparatively low ratos, Now, if the Northwestorn i com- (mund by law to ohinrge on tho grain from’ Winona “tho rate from Fulton to Ohicago, tho trade will bo diverted to Milwaukes, The queation aroso as to whethor the company was bound to uhnrfi:! local rates on freight coming from without tho Btate. This also involved the queations of Low far existing contraots with per- 8ons 1n othor Statos will be affected bfln“m new Iaw, and if thoy are not affected can similar con- tracts be mado whon the law I8 in operstion ? Tho Commissionora did not nssume tho reaponsis bility of deciding. ] Tho railrond mon 'said thoy wore anxious to obey the law and its letter s nearly as thoy could, but whon tho Iaw was equivocal and of doubtful construction, they wished to_be gnided by tho opinion of the Board. The Board ans nounced its intontion of considering ali quostions as thoy aroso undor tho Iaw and of promulgating its decision. 3 Among the visitora was Mr. Roynolds, propri- etor of the ' Diamond Joa " lina'of boals, run- ning botwoon Winona and Fulton on tho Missis- sippi. Ho wantod his Inspector at Fulton recog- nizod o8 a Btate ofticer, o that the grain could bo graded at TFulton and save time in Obicago. 1t is probable that tho matter will bo arrangedto nccommodate tho trade at Fulton, Mr. Harpery tho Chidf Inspeotor, announcing his willingnoss :g n;nkn tho bost arrangement ho obuld undor 0 Inw, Bevoral elevator mon disonssed with the Board tho best mado of collosting out inepection focs, exprossing thomsolvos rendy to colleot tho foos without assuming any responsibility therefor. Tt is not likoly, howover, that any material inno- vation will bo made in the system now in vogue. —— RUFFIANISM ON THE NORTH SIDE. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Bin: Pationco has consed to be a virtue, and somothing must bo dono to check tho lawless- ness of young vababonde growing up in onr midst. How long are such intolorable nui- eances to be allowed to oxist? Ono of tho Istest outrages of o large fiang of young roughs, mostly boys of all nationalities, living on Bodg- wick stroot, sbove Ohicago avenue, is to fix hose on to hydrants and let the wator play in torronts upon poacoful passers- by,—ladies with infants in their srms, snd pll, indiscriminately, Ia thore no police on this street to keep ordor and stop such rufilan}; procoodings ?

The Condition of tho Orchards in tho Erult District, With Somoc Suggon- tlons ae to Frult-Growing. Fennsille Mich. (Jure 39, Correspandenca of the De- troft Tribune, u: As I have doomod much that has boon pub- lished on fruit prospecta since our severo :vt ntlor ot facts, I have intolligonoo from tho Btates of Missouri and Illinois, whora the peach orop haa boen cut off, aud tho treen injured. In the southern part of Lilinola thoy may have some seedling peachios. Accounts from 8t, Josoph and Bonton Harbor, Mich,, are conflicting and dlucnmgln{. I bo- Hevo they,will Lhavo but fow posches there. I have talked with two frult-growors from Bpring Lake and Fruitport, who inform me their posoh crop is killed, though thoy were thankful that their orehards weronot killed. A noighbor of ming in Allogan County was roquestod to pruno a largo pench orohard noar Allegan S\\bout twonty milos west of Lake Michi- gan), and found the troos all killed by tho sovoro wintor, which X supposo is true of othors that distanco from the lake. My own orchard is situated three miles from the lake, on clovated land and nlai soil. Aboutone-ninfh of my pench trocs are oither injured or killed, the rost of them promiso from half to throo-fourths of a crop of different varioties, inoluding Crawfords. Bome neighibora immodiately on tho lake shore have lost nbout ono-fifth of thoir troes, though the othor gnru of thoso orchards promise fine crops—and some variotios a full orop. Wa find no practical differenco between orch- ards near the Iake and well-managoed ones threo or four milos back. Mr. Drossler has just re- fused 84 por bushel for a large crop, delivered at tho railway dopot. Am;lns. poard, grapos, eto., promise a farge crop this season. The winter-killing Ymsonts & now phaso. Treos thataro now dead in the early spring gave prom- iso of o full crop. They blossomed and sot fruit profusoly. Other troos of the ssmo ngo and variety, and subjected to tho ssme trentmont na tho injured ones, wore not injured ju the lenst. ‘Thore was no top-killing, but the whole diffioulty . was at the collar of tho troo or roots. Trees that are deeply planted are uninjurod and bearing, while those whoso roots are nicar the surface aro injured or killed, Parties who did not cultivate thoir orchardas laat year havo the best winterod troes this soason, flmn%h good poaches cannot bo raised in that way, We conclude that it was not the severity of cold that killed the trees, but too shallow plnnil!?. Are wo right ? Your correspondont from rlin, Ottawa County, thinks * Lake Bhoro theory is o hum- bug,” which ought to be exploded or modified. But we foel more fully convincod that tho Lako Bhoro is tho only safe placa to raiso peaches, and the only modification that wo seo ia s detormina- tion to rlnnc more trees.

Tribune, Juns 14, For some time past the Territorial papers have containod briof referonces to a proposed tunnel, which was to be carmed through the Rocky Mountains, from & point noar Black Hawk, and coming out in Middle Park. Theso itoms were roligiously cnglod by the Enatern press, but tho story sounded Munohausenish, and poople in oneral were loth to believe in the mammoth en- rige, low, howaver, 1t Is known that the project has boen fully insugurated, and that its projoctor is on the ground, with ample moans and labor to prosocute the work to completion. From the Plack Hawk Journal of Juno 18, wo obtain tho following particulars regarding the yru}mnod work : *“T'he tunnol will be about twelve miles long, Its groatost depth will bo 6,000 feot, at James' Toak. It will mako Middlo Park readily acosnsl- Dlo from tho enstern portion of the Torritory ; will show whatis tho mineral and geological charactor of this section, aund will tolerably ex- tonsivoly advertise tho country as tho scono of an ontorpriso twico as largo and a hundred times a8 important as tho Mount Cenis tunnol, Col. Heaton will use the diamond-pointed drills, and thus not bo obliged to keop in operation numer- ous blackemith shops. Thoy will be driven by machinery. And it {s expected that the tunnel will prograsa at tho rato of & foot por hour, or 60 foot por day. Larly next year work will com- monce from Middle Park. ‘¢ Alroady considorable work has beon done. The mountain has beon graded down for tho faco of tho tunnel ; a flumo 1,300 fect long has beon built from tho croek by which a fall of 25 foot is obtained for the P“Tuw of turning an ovor-shot wheel, by means of which the tunnel is to bo supplied with air; o strong lovoo has Dbeen built to prevont tho waters of the creck from ovorflowing and embarrassing operationa in tho tunnel; o lnr(it\: boarding-houso, 60x25 foot, and two storios high, has beon built; s substantiol bridge lins also ‘been built over the crogk on tho rosd leading to tho Lake Gulch country. y ‘*Tho ohjocts of the tunnel aro to afford & menns of worklnéltho discovered mines rapidly and oheaply, to discover and opon_new voins, and to afford o track for a railway, It will strike the Bobtail firat of known minod, snd 400 feob below tho prosont tunnel, *Tho offeots of tho succoss of this enterpriso oan hardly bo estimated.

Though tho enterprise is of such mag- nitude a8 to dazzlo the imagination and to stag- or aud bowildor the judgment, yot if the min- ni,maom’ons of the country are what wo all beliove thom to bo, it {s not chimorical, and iy suro to bo a source of profit to the Company and of incaloulable benefit to tho Torritory. s Oruelty to Animals, Special Dispatoh to The Chisago Tribune, Rooxroup, Juno 18,—This foronoon & young man namod Davie hirod a toam of -fina hortoa at Lawronco's livery stable, and drove to Dol dero, nnlumlnE, lo wont to u houso of ill- famo, sltuated about two miles bolow the oity, and obtaining two of the jumnates, onmno back to town, and drove up and down tho main stroots a number of timea at a rapid paco, B:80 this ovening ho returned tho team to tho stable, whoroupon one of the ani- mals, valuod at 8400, fell dead.

During tho first part of his confinement at Milbank 'ho wns placed undor punishment and kopt upon brend and wator. On boing brought back from Ohatham to Milbank he was placed in tho soli~ tary cell in the infirmary. On the following morning the modical officor of the prison, ae- companied by Mr. Wilson, wont to seo him, and commencod prioking Lis foot with noodlos.

Dr. Stoolo thought there were symptoms of paralyeis in tho lower limbs, Tho othor officors sworo that the prison- or was treatod with kindnesa and courtesy. Justice Blacoburn discharged tho motion, which deocigion was concurred in by Mr. Justico Quain and Mr. Justico »Archibald.” Tho ground of the docision was that thore was no founda- tion for tho atatemonts as contained in "the afll- davit of the rolator, when compared with the evidence of tho prison officials.
