[ Special Telegram to TUB BEB. ] The east-bound freight compli cation was still further mixed to-day by a notice of tbo Michigan Central that It would meet the Grand Trunk cut to 20 cents on all classes of grain , Chicago to Now York , next Friday. It will bo remembered that the Grand Trunk gave notice that It would ad vance all rates to the 25 cent busts on July 24. This notice superseded its notice of re duction to 20 cents. The joint committee do- oldod in New York , on Wednesday , that on July 23 the rates of 30 cents on corn and 2 > cents on wheat should go Into effect. Ac cording to this , all central trafUc and trunk line roads , cxcent the Grand Trunk and Micnignu Central , will put the joint commit tee rates into effect July 22. The Grartd Trunk will r.iiso all the grain rates to 25 cents July 24 , meantime charging 20 cents , und uftor July 10 tha Michigan Central will charge 20 cents on all classes of ? rnm. Of course this paradoxical state of nffulrs can not exist , und unless the Joint committee takes prompt action the 23 cant ruto on all classes of grain will rule as soon after July 23 as the roads cau issue leual turiff.

[ Thirty delegates , six loss than n quorum , were nil that put In nn appearance at this afternoon's session of the constitutional convention , Judge Cars'an , of Dcailwood , presided , Judge Kdgorton having gone to his homo at Mitchell for Sunday. A dc&lgn for the great soul of South Dakota was received from n Chicago llrm of en gravers nnd referred to the proper commit tee , and then the convention adjourned until 'Monday at 2 p. m. , after being In session seven mlmilos. It Is now settled that the convention will remain iutnct three weeks longer. As n body It has decided to m'copt nn invitation to attend the waterway con vention nt Superior , VVIs. , on Tuesday , August 0. The wives of the dele gates nro to go also , and there Is to bo a special train ride , a baDQitut and a ptcnla generally. Arrangements are being nego tiated with n view to having the convention of .North Dakota go with * the party , but it Is believed here that the northern neighbor will remain In session during all of the dog days , as the work of constitution making at Bismarck progresses slowly. Considerable interest Is felt In tbo numerical order in which the state of South Dakota will couio into the union. The omnibus bill , adopted by congress last February , providing for statehood for North and South Dakou. Mon tana nnd Washington territories , refers to them In the order here named. If Presl-1 'dent ' Harrison's proclamation declaring their statehood employ * the name phraseology us this law , North Dakota will bo the thirty- ninth and South Dakota the fortieth state. This may not scorn to to a matter of much importance , but it Is , as It iuvolvos the senior ity and leugth of the first terms of the United States senators for the two stains. Ono of the gortlemcn whom nearly every body in South Dakota believes will bo chosen United States senator by the legislature this winter , says the terms of the United States senators for thn thirty-ninth state will bo for ono und one-half years and three and a halt years on the first election , whllo the United Statessenators chosen the - senators by legis lature of the fortieth stnto will survo ns their first tormit four und six years. Thus those who aspire to be United States senators for South Dakota are congratulating themselves that President Harrison will follow the language of the omnibus bill and name North Dakota us the thirty-ninth state of the union nnd not overlook the law in au effort to rcc- ognizo South Dakota's work for statehood. She has berne the brunt of tha battle from first to last. There is not a very great scramble for the state nominations in South. Dakota. Ttiis is duo to a general understanding us to whom shall bo nominated for tha principal ofllces on the republican ticket , which is the only ono having uny prosptot at all for success. Artlm * Mollottc , of VVutortown , Presi dent Harrison's present governor of both the Dakotas , will be nominated und elected by at. least twenty thousand majority. Emigra tion Commissioner Hagorty , of Aberdeen , is likely to bo nominated lieutenant governor. The two congressional nominations He between - tween Colonel Charles T. McCoy , Of Aber deen , who was a member of the original South Dakota constitutional convention and who has buen a member of the national com mittee nnd a recognized leader of the party for many years , Hon. John II. Gallhle , of Yunkton , who was also a member of the original constitutional convention nnd who is u hustler , ana the present elective con gressional delegate , Gcurge C. Matthews , of Brookings. Only three names are overheard in con nection with the United States senutorship. They are Judge O. J. Edgerton , of Mitchell , who was president of the lost constitutional convention , and is the presiding oftlcer of tno convention in session here ; Judge Gideon D. Moody , of Dcndwood , who was a member of of the original constitutional convention , and who has rendered incalculable service for the division of Dakota and statehood , nnd ox-congressional delegate Frank Poitlgrow , of Sioux Falls , who has been a lighter in the front ranks for division and statehood since the inclploncy of the movement. Messrs. Edgerton and Moody have the prestige of having been elected United States senators by the Huron state legislature , Mr. Pettl- grew has the advantage of having made ono of the most satisfactory and effective dele gates Dakota over sent to congress and with having done more than nny man in South Dakoia for the territory's develop ment. Ho is Just entering the prime of lir < > , Is a thorough statosmnn , familiar with the legislative proceedings of the territory mid of congress , and ho will take heed at Washington like nn experienced senator. Ho has assisted with his own capital und that which ho has secured in the cast so many cities and towns In Dakota that n sense of gratltudo on the part of their citizens will give him great strength , oven though the ad vantages ho would have In Washington at the outset nro overlooked. Dakota is popu lated with shrewd , warm blooded men , among whom PCttIRrow Is the foremost. Hem m an unwavering and the staunuhost of friends. Ho is the youngest of the trio. Judge EdgcrUm served In the United States sonata from Minnesota with great credit. Ho Is ns largo and broad mentally ns ho IH physically , nnd ho Is n magnificent specimen of iluuihootl. Ho was u good soldier , is n trained statesman , well educated , well read and well known ; a tine lawyer und Jurist , a firm friend nnd thoroughly popular. Judge Moody is a fearless , progressive statesman. Ho was a colonel in the union n nny during the late war , and like his coad- Jucators , early came to Dakota. Ho was on tiio'fodoral bench In South Dakota for many years , proving himself nil able and clear jurist , and sluco ho became a private citizen has demonstrated his ability as an advocate. ' All of those thrco men would do great credit In the United States senate to any state , nnd the people of the country may bo sure , oven at this early day. that South Da kota will have as strong n delegation in con gress this winter as can bo found from any state In the union.

Thnt Kullroad Trust. NEW YOIIK , July 13. [ Special Telegram to THIS HEE. ] Concerning Air. McCook's circular In regard to the formation of a huge railroad trust , Mr. McCook yesterday after noon said that the statement printed In Chicago that certain railroads were already committed to the scheme was Incorrect. The original letter , ho said , had boon written without consultation with railroad or other ofllclals. Not a man or a road had been com mitted to it. McCook hits rccoived letters acknowledging llio receipt of tlio circular , but none of the writers have given the mat ter suflleiont consideration to base an opinion on It. It.Mr. Mr. Macjrowan , McCoolt's ' partner , was also seen , and In speaking of the matter said thnt whllo what Mr. McOook hud stated was exactly correct , nevertheless there was u scheme in the air for the formation of a series of trusts among the railroads , and It embodied very iioarly the ideas , in Mr. McCook's circular. It is said that McCook'a scheme is backed by Drexel , Morgan & Co. , Hrown Uros. & Co. , and Kidder , Poaboily & Co. , three of the largest batuclnt : houses in the country. It Is lo'irnod from a banker of prominence that most of the great roads in the west , in cluding the Union Pacific , would favor such a scheme , and that the Gould and Vanuer- bllt Interests would look at It m the sumo light. Railroad ofllcials , bankers < and railroad lawyers agree that there is no likelihood of oven an attempt being made to form a rail- roatl trust. It is intimated that some stops are necessary to remove the Chicago fc Alton and the Burlington & Northern roads from the position they now occupy , and thut npioposltion hus boon inado to purunaso the stock of bath companies and operate them by u union committee. Another schema pro posed is to follow out the plan under which the Cleveland , Columbus. Cincinnati & In dianapolis , the Cincinnati , Indianapolis , St. Louis & Chicago and the Ualro & Vlnconnos roads wcro consolidated , und form the rail ways of the country into four great systems , the stocks of the old companies to bo can celled and their Individuality destroyed. Mnnncor Mollon'n Threat. CHICAGO , July 13. The lack of harmony In the 1'itor-stato Commerce Hallway associa tion was illustrated to-day at the mooting of the general .managers of lines In the trnus- Missouri division. A hot discussion ever competitive traulo from the fur west brought out n direct threat from General Man ager Mellon , of the Union Pacific , to cut loose from tlio "Gentlemen's agreement"anil do as ho individually pleased. Tbo Union Pacific wuiitod the Denver & Hlo Grande west of tha Itocky mountains forced to conform to the rules of the association. It was shown by the Denver Klo Grande representative thnt they had only Joined the combination on being assured exemption from obedience to the rules beyond the Koeldes. Manager Mellon thereupon claimed similar privileges for the Union Pacific , and , being refused , made the wrathful threat of withdrawing. Ho wus ridiculed by those present. Nevertheless , theru wus an evi dent fear that president Adams , the superior ofilccr of Mr. Melton , is only walling for a pretext to secede with the Union Pacific. Some relief from this fading was obtained when later tha Union Pacific unexpectedly ncrood to u restoration of the passenger rate from Colorado points to Chicago. Ten days' notice of an advance from $ -0 ! to $30,05 , old figures was given Immediately. i\ Now Jtnllrond.
