An Immense Structure fo Rise from the Site of the Washbarn * L.” MrxxcaroLss, May 4.—Interest on the scene of the great mill disaster of Thursday centres mainly in the search in the ruins for additional remains, in more accurate estimates of the money loss, aud in the prospects for rebuilding. Working parties are industriously engaged upon the rufns, but their operations are neees- sarily confined to the outer side of the wreck on account of the heat and smoke still remain- inginits vorter. A larze gang has been cm- ployed in clearing the broken timbers and the stone of the cast wall of the Washburn Mill frum the capal, which seems literally choked with debris.

The meeting of the managers and General Freizht Agents of the roads interested in the Missouri River business bas resulted in a peaze- ful settlement of the difticulties which brought aoout the late disastrous war. Neither the Chicago nor the St. Louis managers were very anxious to have the war last, and for this reason they were willing £o make concessions 1o each other. The urrangement may be termed 2 compromise, and neither Chicago nor St. Louis can claim a victory, as neither gained the points for which it Was coutending. The Si. Louis manugers insisted on a readjustment of the throusn rates from the East, “claini that the present tariff discrimi apainst them. The Chicago munagers, on thie other hand, refused to make concessions in this respect, as they believed themselves to be en- titled to the aiflerence | a re various roads leading to Missouri River points, and, consequently this plan was adopted and sace once more restored. The Committee, con- of Messrs. Riddle, MeMullin, Mek aze, lopsins, aud Carson, uppoin Friday's ineeting completed their labors yester: day alternoon, and at 2 o’clock revorted a plan for the pooling: of the tonnaze kuown as the Southwest Missouri River traffie—which was finatly adopted. The plan divides the Missourt River business into three divisious—the 40O Division, consisting of the Chicago, Burlinztou & Quincy, Chicago, Rack Island & Pacitle, Chi- cago & Alton, Hannibal & St. Joe (Q Dusiness), and Kansas City. St. Joe & Coun- cil Blufls; the St. Lows Division, covsist- ing of the N ri Pacific and St. Louis, Kaunsas Cv & Northern; and the Hauni- hal Division, consisti of the Haunibal & St. Joe (1lunni L ) and Wabash., It will De secn by this that the Wubash is the only road that has alned a point, being admittel into the pool on a portion of the busiuess. The Chic oY)i on will et 45 per cent of the busiacss, the St. Louis Division 45 per cent, nud the Hoonibal Division 10 per_ cent, the rates Lo be gdjusted from time to time £0 as to sceure to each division its proper sharc of business. The arrangement takes in all the business puss- ing to or tarough Kansas City, St. Joseph, Leavenworth, and Atchison, also the business passing to or throuzh all Mississippi River oints—St. Louis, Loutsizuy, Hannibal, Quincy, urlington, Daveaport, and Chicazo. - It wilt be seen that this pool diflers radically from the old one. While under the old arrangement the cross carnings were pooled, under the new arrange- ment the tonnuge is divided similar to the di- vision of toumage by the New York pool, and while the old arrangement incluaed the Mis- souri River business only, this onc embraces also the business to Mississippi River points. The new combiuation be known as the Southwestern Railway Association. Mr. H. H. Courtwright, Commercial Apent of the St. Louis roads, aud_John Crampton, Comnereial Agents of the Chicago roads at Kansas Cit will remain at that place as the Commercal Agent of the new Association, while Mr.J. W, Midgeley remains in Chicago as Commissiouer. Thie new arrangement will go into effect Mon- dav, and is to remain in existence until Jan. 1, 1879, Tt was also azreed that 40 per cent of the excess carricd by any Division is to be retained for expenses while the other 60 per ceilt has to be turncd over to the otber Divisions. In regard to the Colorado basiness, which fs also gréatly unsettled, itiwas resolved thar here- after full Tocal rates on all this kind of business shall be _charged, provided the various roads leading from St. Louis snd Chicago to Couucil Blufls will do the same. No other action iu re- gard to the Colorado difficulties could be taken, as there are roads concerned in that basiness vot belongiug to the Southwestern Railway combi- nation. ‘I'ne immediate effect of the formation of the new pool was the restoration of the rates that were in force previous to_the beginning of the present war. The West-bognd rates wiil, on aud after_Monday, be as féllows: From Cii cazo to St. Joseph, West St. Joscol, Atc cents special ass; 375 cluss A; $60 class B; $40 class C cents lumber. From st.

The East bound rates will be as follows: From St. Joseph, West St. Josepl, Atchison, Leavenworth, and Kansas City Lo Chicago 7 cents first-class; G0 cents sccond-class; 43 ceats third-class; % cents fourth-c wheat; 20 cents corn, rye, oate, i cents flour; 25 cents bect, pork, and other meats in boes, burrels, or tierces: s dressed hogs, beef, and mutton, i refrig and 40 cents in comumon cars, $67.50 1 To st.

To Toledo, 40 cents wheat and 25 cents corn. Mucl credit is given to Commissioner Fink for tae fuvorable result of the mecting. His energetic efforts in the first place brought 2bout the coming torether in this city of the managers of the roads inter- ested in the Missouri River busin He also sent a long letter full of compliments 1o tiic Western Manugers for th 1 sagacity and 2ood judgment and thei 1 with ‘one another. T S had a very soothing effect aud made the man- agers feel proud of themselves. It inbued them with a determination to show Mr. Fink that they were really as good as he had told them they were, and therefore they met each otber ina much more conciliatory spirit than they would otherwise bave dose. Mr. Fiuk evidently understands the men be bas to deal with and treats them accordiuggiy. CHICAGO, ST. PAUL & MIN- NEAPOLI3. Mr. William I.
