Private advices from Chi- IFE, cago intimate that grain is being shipped at 17 cents against the official quotation of 20 cents issued by Conimissioner Fink. This morning Vanderbilt proposed to reduce rates to 15 cents, if necessary, 1 railrond men believe the present departure indicates a permanent rate of from 15 to 20 cents, so that new corporations will be forced to do a losing business, and that the money being put into construction compan- ies will be allabsorbed by unprofita- ble freight rates. FINK TO THE FRONT, New York, June 15.—The rumors that have been in circulation fur sev- eral weeks that the Trunk line of rail- roads were not abiding by the pooling agreement, but were cutting rates, were fully confirmed by Commissioner Fink, who authorized a general reduc- tion of grain rates on the basis of twenty cents per hundred pounds from Chicago to New York, “If this rato is not maintained,” said Fink, ““further reduction will be authorized to meet the lowest special rates,” It has been known for more than a month #nult that special contracts were made by the Erie road for special merchants in the grain trade, rates being as low as eighteen and twenty cents per hundred from Chicago. By reason of these special contracts favored parties have been enabled to manipulate the market just as they chose, and there has been much dis- satisfaction among those who fecl themselves discriminated ageinst. Re- ceipts of grain by the Erie road in May were 2,244,693 bushels; only 7 bushels less than the aggregate receipts of all the other roads, It is expected that at the meeting of man- agers of the pool roads to-morrow some action will be taken against the Erie, and it is rumored that there will probably be a disruption of the pool. The Erie people feel indifferent as they anticipate soon securing an inde pendent through line to Chicago.

PITNEY 5 PARDS The effect of the treasury investiga- tion is apparent outside the depart- nges in present. Mr. ands ahead for ment, even though the sccretary re fuses to make pubhic the report. The sum of 100 was to-day turned into the treasury by an outsider, who had bought horses of Pitney, manager of the treasury contingent fund. This restitution was made because of the warmth of the scent. A city book- seller yesterday turned into the treas- ury €650 for overpayment for file holders, A city dealer has returned a lot of carpeting which the commit- teo were looking up. A hardware firm has made restitution to the amount of §300. All (f this was on account of the investigation of the committee. This straightening up of such mattersis considered well enough, but it is certain that several resigna- tions must be requested bye and bye, inasmuch as the nature of the report demands them. EXPELLED, Dr. Charles Bowen, of this city, has been expelled from the national med- ical association for advertising himself as & specialist.
