While in Cinelnnatl Chacilo Jones demanded that the back pay duo him be pald immediutely, whieh Hurry Wright sald could not be done, as he had no Tan to pay: him with. A compromiso wag, however, cf- tected between the two, Wright agreoing to pay Jones in) full when the team renohed Cleveland. Mutters ran wlong smoothly until Tuesday, when Jones, not getting any monoy nor getting any satiafuctory answer from Wright, again domunded what was thon duo him, or he would not play any moro, At this right got Vpon hls ear, nnd for a time tho two had Itright and left in tha Woddte House pace lora. ‘The siunbblo listed for sumo momunts, whon Wright, Inn moment of excitement, totd Jones that ho (Jones) could consider himself suspended. - This was no bad news for Joncas, who was anxious to hear Just such words from Wright's lips, ‘This was why Jones did not play in Thursday's zume, ‘The matter here ts looked Upon ag very poor Judgment on Wright's part, and A good thing for Jones, who hus, evidently, tho beat of the Moston management, wh gaged Jones to play fora cortain Yeurs, und pay him at tho end of cach month, This they have failed to do, and now Jones in- tents tu souk redress in tho courte, provided bo does not get what belongs to bin.” If the above |e a true atntement of the caso, Jones will havo tho sympathy und countenance of all falre ininded people, and the TLeayue at its next an- nual meoting can decently do no loss than re- Move the han of susponsion.

There eatimot be tho least doubt that tho cross-lnes from Peoria and Indfanapolis sticceeded in keeping thems selves busy by giving special Indacements to ahippe! nitting [3 boing practiced, and har been for some time past by the roads enat from Vinconnes, Lafayetts, and other Inte rior poluts at whieh no enetebound fealty are rangement debara the ronds from doing as they Hewde.

No charges of this sort are made aainst tho Pennsylvania and the Hultimore & Ohio, But these roads complain bitterly that they nre belng badly tett, and thut they cantnt stand this state of affairs uny louger, During the past week tho two Tennaylyania Mnes—the Fort Wayne and Pans Handie—carrled but 7,009 tons, and the Baltimore & Ohio but s2t0 tons, out of n total ofsi2i7 tong. The Lakeshore alone carried 13.25) tans, the Mi aunt Central 6,007 tons, and the Chicago & Grand ‘Yrunk 3,67 tons. Moth the Michigan Central and Grand Trunk carried much jess during the past week than for tho Inst fow weeks previous, but this 1s claiined to be due to the fact that these roads were short of cura and unndle to bandie moro than they did, ‘The Pennsylvania people cian that thoy have plenty of uins, and yet thoy are unnble to secure business nyainat thelr campos titora, which, they gay, Is sure proof that the other Ines are giving special inducements to shippers, otherwiso they would bo enally able to wet us much business ns any of tholr npett- tors.
