The meet- Jog of Managers Neir York to-day has Bcen postponed until to- morrow, to give the Managers of all the west- ern ronds conne lines a chance to be present and partlcipate In the procecdings. Owing to tho reluctance of the managers of the the Eaatern trunk linos to go into a fight, 1t Is prohabla that they will consont to a pooling ar- rangement of that kind, but it 1s very doubtful that it will have any better success than the presont agrcement for the maintenance of rates among those ronds, A pound business s considered an absurdity by managers who bhave made rallrond study, becauso there are 80 inany conflicting in- terests to bo taken in, division betweon tho numberless ronds to leading to tho E: require such herculean labors that oven such fino statistictans and (igurers as Messrs, Fink and Guitford would be unable to do the work.

He was fn a ruslflcn to give the reason now given by Davis it were true, but he did not knoy It Grant could not have known {t, becauso fit told the New York Herald that Sumner never roported tha treatics, anid told the same to George Will- fam Curtls, Flsh could not_hava kunown it, for ho told Iils storles In the Boston Transcript and New York ferald, and had not heard uf this one, In 1874 there was nuother devate, but nobody over drosined ol the reason given by Davis till ho published {t last week, Tho adroft. enemies of Sumner should have %aited longer, til} voices and records are duinb, before they assailed the white soul of Charles Sumner. o ——— TELEGRAPHIC NOTES, - tates on the port of hisronds | would beamatier which could, st the most, councern but & few men, and s a subject inwhich the public can have no possidle Interest.
