Some of the jobbers of Burlington have been fighting the road for lower rates, and some weeks ago filed complaint for this purpose with the commission. But the business men of the city generaily, including the manu- facturers, retailers and other shippers, are satisfied with the present rates, and fe:l that tho road is doing as well as 1t cun, since it isn't paying its fixed charges, as the rates now are. Some time ago the extensive rolling mills at Burlington were burned, and the owners will not rebuild unless they can receive somo special concessions from this Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern rail- road. ‘The road says that if 1t is to be con- stantly fought by Burlngton peovle, it 1s through with making any special favors for Burhngton. But the citizens gencrally do not want to see this exf ind v 20 away from the city, 80 they held a meeling and adovted resolutions asking thal the cow- plaint against the road be witharawn. This petition was signed by over seventy of the leadiug business firms and companics of the city. Butthe handful of Jobbers who de- mand that the railways of Iowa shall be run for their exclusive advantage refused to yield and went on with their complaint.

I, says: The navy has just os caped losing oneof the finest of its now ships. The Boston was last evening run on a rock on the southern end of Rose Island, in this harbcr, The Boston had just com- pleted the last of a series of important trials in Narragansett bay, und was returning to her anchorage off Gons Island when the accident occurred. No sooner did the schooner strike than off she slid. In an instant all the water tight compartments were banged tight shut, but not before the compartments under the engine room were completely flooded. The ship was at once headed close in shore and now with all her compartmonts tightly shut she appears to keep the water confined, If nothing worse develops she may be able to reach New York by steaming siowly. As soon as she makes the navy yard not a mo ment will be lost in getting her into dry dock, and until this is done no idea can be formed of the extent of her injuries, No one doubts that she has knocked a hole in her bottom somewhere gmidships, ‘Ihis morning she” was listed on one side while a diver examined her bottom. The amount of damageis not yet known, The ofticers are reticent, e ———— A Fatal Oollision.

She will die. No attempt at robbery was made. The only explanation that can possibly be given so far is that scveral years ago Mrs. Smith testified in_ ceurt agaiust a criminal who went to the penitentiary vowing vengeance on the wite unesses m the case.

Des Morxes, Ia, August 4.—|Special to Tue By tere is one Towa railroad that enjoys the distinction of bemng a first class road, aud having @ set of rates for itself alone. This is the Fort Madison & North- western railway, a narrow gauge road that has had pecutiarly hard luck and a great struggle to get along. For some time it has been in the hands of a receiver, and it was thought not long ago that the road would give up the unequal contest and not try to live. But the recciver, Mr. C. A. Gilchrist, came before the commissioners and talkod the matter over, and the commissioners told him to make a schedule of rates upon _which the road could exist and lot them see it. S0 he went to work and prepared a schedule of rates just to fit the requirements of his situ- ation, and the commissioners have accepted it-and will let him exper;ment and see if tho road can live under it. ‘'he ratesarcin some respects lower than tne comussioners’ schedulo for that kind of a road, but in the main are o little higher. As this is the only road that has a schedule all to itself, its classification is therefore fourth class,’ and its schedule is a fourth-class. Thero have been but three such in operation heretofore.
