It is announced in tlio nowspipcrs hero that the trunk lines will decline to reduce their rates of freight on food products as they were ordered to do by the Interstate commerce commission. This order , It will bo remem bered , was issued after mi investigation by tlio interstate commerce commission under n resolution of the senate inquiring into the cnuso of thu depression of the prices of farm products in the we.sti-rn states. The commission ascertained and declared that ono great cnuso was the hied rates chanted for the transportation of farm products to the seaboard nnd were of the opinion that these rates were excessive therefore , an order was issued requiring ! ! ! ) per cent reduction from Kansas City. Omaha , nud other points. The railroads hold that the roinmlsslou 1ms tbo right to determine what rates ( hey shall charge provided there Is no discrimination nnd aunouneo that they will resist this order in the courts. Commit- sioncr Morrison was seen this afternoon ami in reply to nn Inquiry said that ho had read the announcement , in the newspapers , but ns ttio order did not go into effect until September I tbo commission would assume tbnt the railroads were going to obey it until it was aotunllv violated , then it would be time enough for them to glvo the subject their attention , and dceido what course to pin-sue.

I.OIIIIVIXU IlKl-fllUCASJ. Tbcro lias been nn itnmenso amount of lobbying in tbo senate today nnd it has nil been on the republican sido. The speaker himself lias taken part in it , together with Uoprosc'iitatlt'o Belaen , the chairman of the republican congressional committee und other equally prominent members of congress. Not for many a day has the house of representa tives taken so mueh interest in the action of tbo senate , and all the earnest effort and anxiety was directed toward tlio caucus that is bumg held tonight. Speaker Kcod and the republican leaders of the house aw deter mined that Iho senate shall pass the Force bill , oven though this session of congress bo prolonged until Ihu be ginning of tbo next. The resolution introduced by Mr. Quay found so much favor among the republicans in the senate , who wore anxious to dispose of the tarilt bill and go home , that its adoption by tbo caucus seemed altogether probable this morning. Mr. Hoar and Mr. bpooncr , who have been acting as midwives for the election bill , were seized with a panic and rushed to the linuso of representatives for reinforcements , which they did not have much trouble m getting. The republican members from tbo various states immediately started for the other end of j tbo eapitol to interview their senators nnd urged them not to Bin-render in the 1 face of victory , ns Mr. Hoar has 1 described the case. Mr. Quay was thotnrgct fora great deal oftho nttaclcbut ho met the criticism with bis usual placid demeanor meaner and seemed surprised that iinvono should think ho bad done an unusual tiling by knocking the plans of his party in the bead. Ho s.ild to everyone who approached him that his reasons for introducing tlio resolution elution were simply to expedite the public business. It Is apparent , lie said , llrst , that the tarilt bill must bo passed by this con gress , nnd second , it is perfectly evident that the federal election bills cannot bo passed. "I am satisfied , " said Sen ator Quay , "that a majority of tbo senate Is opposed to any change in tli o rules and wo cannot expect to pass the elec tions bill , ball am opposed to sacrificing tbo tariff bill for It. The tariff bill is an im mediate necessity. The elections bill can wait. Tlio tariff bill ought to bo passed at the * earliest moment in order to relieve the strain upon basliiesis nnd permit the manu facturers to make tboir contracts nnd tne merchants to purchase their goods for next season. Our markets are now being llooded with foreign goods and the woolen Imports alone of Init iiiontli show nn hu-reaso of < U per cent. Meri'liants will not buy anything and manufacturers will not soil anything until the question of dulkH will bo settled nnd unless the tariff bill bo passed and put Into force within the next thirty days the business of the whole year will bo de stroyed.
