THE COMPLAINT AGAINST THE PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW YORK AND HUDSON RIVER COMPANIES. ‘The Interstate Commission to-day granted a hearing in the complaintot the Chicago and Alton Raflroad Company against the Pennsylvania Rail- road Railroad Company and the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad, alleging a violation on the part of these two roads of the third section of the interstate law. ‘The question really at issue 1s the validity of the custom of one railroad pay- ing commissions to the officers and employes of another road for the procurement of passenger business. A GROUP OF RAILROAD MEN. ‘The hearing attracted quite a number of rail- Toad men. Among those present were President Geo. B. Roberts and Mr. Jno. Scott, chief counsel of the Pennsylvania company; General Manager Chappel, General Ticket Agent Chariton, and At~ torneys ‘Oates and Brown, of the Chicago and Alton; Mr. Frank Loomis,’ counsel, and General Passenger Agent Monette, ‘of the New York Cen- tral; Mr. Ashley Pond, counsel of the Michigan Central, and other attorneys and officers of rail- MR. BROWN'S STATEMENT OF THE GRIEVANCE. Mr. Brown, representing the complainant, the Chicago and Alton Railroad, opened the case with a statement of the grievance. He was not ready to proceed with the case against the New York Central, so that against the Pennsylvania was taken up. Mr. Brown sald the charges were that the Pennsylvania company had refused to accord to the Chicago and Alton equal privileges and ad- vantages with other roads in the matter of passen- ger trafic; that it had subjected the Chicago and Alton to undue disadvant and had not offered to it all reasonable facilities for the interchange of pee r traffic, His Gene was that the pennsylvania sold through tickets over its line to anes Cia via the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy road, but refused to sell tlekets over the a ‘ead and Alton. In so doing he contended at THE PENNSYLVANIA VIOLATED THE INTER-STATE LAW. He maintained that the law was passed for the benefit of the public, and not for the convenience of any corporation; that under the law it was the duty of the Commission to see that equal facilities Were offered to all roads; that 1t was not the pro- Yince of any road to determine what facilities it would grant or deny to another. At the conclusion of Mr. Brown’s statement Mr. Scott, of the Pennsylvania, asked if he should state his side of the case then, or if the Commission Would first hear the testimohy of the complainant? Chairman Cooley said he did not see t there Was any question of fact at issue. It was not Worth while for the Commission to take testimony when the question submitted, as he understood. it, ‘Was oné of principle and not of fact. THE ONLY QUESTION AT ISSUE. ‘Mr. Scott assented to this, adding that the only question at issue was the right of one railroad company to bribe the officers and agents of another company by paying them commissions, Mr, Brown, in his argument, held that the ques- ‘tion of commissions was one cf the internal policy of a railroad, and the Commission had nothing to do with it; that whether the road saw fit to pay salaries or commissions was not a matter for the Commission to inquire into, Mr. Scott took issue with this point, saying the commission question was one of principle involv- ing the morals of railroad employes and the good Of the public, He denied that the Chicago and Alton had a rightto tempt the officers of the Pennsylvania by paying them commissions to send twaffic over thatroad. Mr. Scott said that be- fore the interstate law went into effect, a large majority of the railroads had determined TO ABANDON THE COMMISSION SYSTEM as one that worked much evil. It required no ar- gument, he said, to show that the agent in New York selling through tickets to Kansas City or other competitive points would exert himself in favor of the road that mission, and instances had been known wherein the agent divided his commission with the pas- senger in order to influence him to Mhy a ticket over the favored route. The Pennsylvania com- len had abandoned the commission system, and It issued a circular inviling all roads agree- ing with it to assent to its abandonment. Very many of them assented, but sixteen held out for the Old system. Among-these was the Chicago and Alton,the complainant, and the Pennsylvania refuses to exchange passenger business with the Alton road untess it shall agree that 1t will not go into the offices o7 the Pennsylvania Co. and tempt its agents. Mr. Scott sald the Pennsylvania had notified its officers and employes that it would discharge them for accepting commissions, and in the face of this notice the Chicago and Alton claims that it has a legal Tight, to offer these agents and employes a moneys Comimissto! “to tempt them to do wrorg,” he added, Mr. Scott dented any such right, and it was for the Commission tosay whether such a viclous system should be kept up or broken down. It was a system that went to the very bottom of railroad management, he sald. ‘COMPLAINTS OP THE DRESSED BEEF MEN. Albert H.

CHICAGO KEPT IN SUSPENSE. neertainty as to the Fate of Kershaw QUEEN VICTORIA GROWS NERVOUS a JUBILEE RACING YACHTS IN A HAZE. Boston's Welcome to Confederate Veterans. ee THE SUSPENSE NOT OVER. Still Uncertain in Chicago How the Wheat Clique’s Troubles will End. Curcaco, June 16.—C. J. Kershaw & Co. will, says 2 local paper, meet all demands for margins made upon them to-day, notwithstanding their failure to go through the clearing-house yesterday. The money is in the American Exchange National Bank to their credit, and will be checked as fastas demands are presented, so that if the stability of the market 1s dependent upon that firm meeting its obligations, as many cl: no violent fluctuations can be expected to-day. ‘he announcement of the firm's complete solvency comes in an oficial way, and from sources that cannot be questioned, although permission to use names is dented, 4 STATEMENT AS TO KERSHAW’S CONDITION. The statement is as follows: 'C. J. Kershaw & ‘Co, received a large sum of money yesterday morn- ing, and as soon as business opened up began meeting the demands made upon them. They paid out several hundred thousand dollars, and ex- cted to liquidate every dollar of indebtedness, nt- shortly before noon saw that they would be compelled to let another night go before they paid out any more, knowing, too, that it would nat result in some embarrassment, but under- standing that they would not have to throw up the sponge. The firm has positive assurances of ample backing to-day. ‘The report that Rosenfeld began suit ust Kershaw isa mistake. The rumor donbtless grew out of the fact that Lind. bloom fal a suit and garnisheed the bank (the American Exchange National), laying his damages at $25,000, although it only involves a check for $10,000. Rosenfeld has commenced suit against Wiltshire & Ecke but he has not garnisheed the bank. ‘The bank {s not connected with the sult, neither is Mr. Kershaw or his firm.” This statement means a great deal to the trade in several respects. In the first place, it is in the nature of promise that the demands, approxima- Ung $600,000, which will be made upon the firm lay will be paid in full, $300,000 having been paid yesterday. ‘This will tide over the largenumn- ber of small houses which are now hanging in the balance, and by permitting them to make their settlements in full will at once relieve the tension and go a long way toward restoring confidence in the trade and determining the stability of the market. It will certainly relieve the suspense of the firm’s creditors, all of whom were dumb- founded yesterday when they learned that the house nad failed to clear out, as they were led to expect the contrary from the announcement made early in the morning. With reference to the amount of money deposited yesterday morning and the amount received and deposited later in the day, or to be deposited this morning, it is learned from an authoritative source that the Cincinnatlans brought $300,000 with ‘them, and that $600,000 more will be available to- day. The total amount, $900,000, it 13 believed, will cover allof Kershaw & Co’s., liabilities, and again put the firm on its feet. ‘THB BANKS THOUGHT TO BE ENTIRELY SAFE. In general financial circles the second day of the panic Was even more quiet and uneventful than the frst. The fact that Chicago banks were solid Was Soevident that the boldest of the numerous rumor mongers could find nothing to work up a sensation al it, Tnere seemed to be no doubt Uhat all the banks have demanded wide margins on their wheat loans, or that the collateral now held by them is more than sufficient to save them trom losses. This opiuion is treely expressed by all the leading bankers the city. The banks awe not kept the con thelr books tothem- selves, but prudently let one another know just how they stand.

In addition to those whose failure was brought about by either of the causes given, there are some who were in the deal on their own responsibility, and simply got caught where they could not help them. selves, EERSHAW'S STATEMENT UNSATISFACTORY.
