RESUMPTION OF IOSTILITIES. After a Jull of nearly Lwo months the war be- tween the varfous Eastern trunk lines hos heen actively resumed, and anothier step forward In the gigantic battlo was made yesterday; and It {8 again Commodore Yanderblit who takes the inftiutive. The Michigan Southern Hallroad, of which lic {s the President, gave notlce yesterday moyning that it had reduced the passcuger rates from Chfeago to Detroit and Buffulo. The rate to tho former place was reduced from 88 to 86, and to the latter place from $11 to 810, The reduced tickets, lowever, will bhe limited to two dsys, The imanagers of the Toke _ Bhore & Michigan Southetn Hailroad have taken this step to punish the Michigan Central Raflroud, which they claim {s allow{ng the Canada ronds to aclt tick- cts overits liue at cutrates. They do not claim that the Michigan Contral has violated the regular rules, but they clalin that the Michigan Centra) ean prevent the Canada Jines from cutting the rates by refusing to pro-rate with thom.g The Michigan Centrul clalma that it 1s not pr¥rating with the Canada lines cxeept at the regular tar{(l rates, If the Cannda Jines choose to make lower ratcs and bear the loss tlhemsclves, {t'could not thluly help it and b was declded)y wrong of the Lake Shore & Mlich- fgan Southern Ruilrond to huld it responsible for the dcts of these lincs, Tho manngers of. the Michigan Central Rallroad are making an effort to have the difliculty adjusted, ond the old rates restored. 1f they do not succeed they will, of course, bo comnpelled to raduce their rates to Detroft and Butlalo to the same figures ns those sunounced by the Michigan Central yestorday, MISSOURI RIVER BUSINESS.

A commitiee was nppoinieid ot tho fnst meeting to report o feasible plan for such netjon, and {4 hus been at work ever since con- sldering the matter, It fs understood that the Commfttee will submit a plan to-day, and, unless thie opposition of one or two lincs to such acheme disrupts the cxlsunfi harmony among the varfous lines, the pool will undoubt~ edly bo perfevted. ——— TIOWA ITEMS.
