Clem, quartermaster's department, reached the age of sixty-four and wound up his official duties at the war depart- ment, where he has been stationed for many years. He retires with the additional rank of brigadier general, in accordance with an act of congresy. Col. Clem, commonly known as “the Drummer Boy of Cickamauga’” be- cause as a lad of ten he ran away from home and attached himself <o the 22nd Michigan Infantry Regiment and beat the drum in some of the bloodiest battles fn which that ergan- ization participated, notably at Shil- oh, and at Chickamauga, where he is credited with having killed a Confed- erate colonel.

BODY IN CANAL. | Hartford, Aug. 13.—The body of an unknown man was found floating in the canal néar the railroad bridge | at Windsor Locks yesterday by em- | ployes of the Connecticut River com- pany who were passing that point on | a scow. The man was evidently about ! thirty years old, had a smooth face, | and sandy complexion. He did not | have on any coat and in the trousers pockets was found a sum of money and a nickel wateh. It is thought that the body may be that of a young man who fell out of a canoe at Springfield pected to put independants on ! by the hard coal carrying roads. anthracite coal from the Pennsylva- nia coal fields. Generally lower rates reasonable are prescribed and cents a ton on shipments of the so- called prepared sizes such chestnut and egg coal, from the mines to tidewater and 10 cents a ton on the smaller sizes of coal. These rates will now be $1.45 and $1.35 a ton. Cuts to interior points range all the way from 15 to 80 cents a ton. Granted Concessions. The commission charges the roads with having granted concessions and offsets to their allied coal companies which have in effect been rebates in violation of law. Commissioner Harlan. who dissent- ed, contended that while modification of many coal rates was justified, the action was inconsistent in view of the recent rate increase for practically all other traffic. Result Of Inquiry. The decision is the result of an in- quiry instituted by the commission three years ago. As summeéd up by the commission the decision held: “That the rates on anthracite coal, prepared (general domestic sizes) and pea and smaller sizes, in carload applicable from producing districts | in the Wyoming, Lehigh and Schuyi- kill regions in the state of Penns vania to tidewater ports and certain eastern interior points are unreason- able and the rates on anthracite coal, prepared and Dea sizes from said dis- | tricts to other interior points are un- | reasonable and reasonable rates fixed | for the future. !

Low Grade Commodity. “That anthracite coal is a low grade commodity which is transport- ed in vast quantities jn trains of max- imum tonnage. The tonnage loaded in each car is much greater than the loading of most other classes of traf- fic. Most of the anthracite tonnage is | shipped from collieries whose daily | production, measured in carloads, is very low.
