Garrett wrote his letter to Mr. Sitr;ery, edito.- of the Jlecord, of Philadelphia breaking ofTthe Ives' negotiations he has been working to save hi3 Baltimore and Oh'io ltoad. Negotiations were continu ed by liiui with J. S. Morgan on his arrival in London and an arrangement was announced that is only equalled by that of the West Shore settlement with the New York Central and formipp of the Reading syndicate to reorganize that company. Boih of these deals were carried through by JJrexel, Morgan it Co. Edward Lauterback gave lejial opinion to-day upon the question wheth er the steilina loan made by the Balti more and Ohio Kail Road covered ihe telegraph system of the company. He decided that the telegraph lines were tree from all liens and on receiving this opinion the agreement in the nature of preliminary contract was executed. The parties to contract are the Baltimore & Ohio Krilroad Company and syndi cate composed of J. C. Morgan & Com pany, Barring I?ros. & Co., Brown, Ship ley and Co., of London, Drexel, Morgan A Co., Kidder, Peabody & Co., and Brown, Brothers & Co., of this city, and. Drexel & Co., of l':iiladelphir. The most important poir.t in the contract provides that the management of the company shall be placed in competent hands 6atisfactoiy to ths syn dicate. A. J. Ccr .att, Vic3 President of the Pennsylvania Bailroad is thought to be booked as Garrett's successor., bat isfactory contracts are also to be made with the Pennsylvania and Reading railroads on ail business North of Phila delphia, and with all the other trunk lines entering N.ew York by which all conflict of interests will be removed and insure permanent working of the Balti more and Ohio in harmony with the trunk lines. In addition to these con tracts the line in process of construction from Philadelphia to New Yok will be suspended and the work on Staten Island stopped. In consideration of these contracts being sigred and with control in their hands the syndicate ftgievs to relieve the railroad from its present embanascment by providing $10,000,000 with which to take up the floating debt. It is understood that the enterprise will be practically managed by the Pennsylvania Railroad. :o: Market Reports. Bv telegraph to the Asheville Citizen. St. Locis, September 2.

A Times spe cial from Waco, Tex., says I Every bridge in Hill county was washed awaj' by the rains, and the damage to crops and farms will not fall short of 100,000. In Bosque county and along the line of the Santafe railway the damage is also very heavy. Of the little towns here, Iredell, Whit ney, Hico and Aquilla have sunered most. The railroad companies have suffered severely. It is believed the Central and Missouri Pacific roads are the heaviest loosers. The Mis souri Pacific has a force of nearly 100 men at work on the line near Grand View. A train on the road was detained bcrween Itasca and Grand View Iroui Monday night till yesterday evening. It was out on the pr;i;rie nine miles from any house. Manv ot the passengers suffered for hick of food. None of the roads arc running their full schedule ye . The Stock Market.

The Eve nin; Star of this afternoon puplishes the following : There will he a r. easim brought forward for tariff reduction as soon as congress con venes which will likely have the en dorsement of the administration.Tne President, and Speaker Carlisle have been considering the matter since congress adjourned and it is not improbable that the present visit of Mr. Carlisle to the President at Oak View will result in the culmination of their plan. It is possible that the Speaker's visit to Washington at this time was expressly for the purpose ot consulting with the President upon this subject. It is expected at the Treasury Department that Secretary Fairchild who is now on his yaca tion will soon return to Washington. It is probabla that he comes to meet the President and Mr. Carlisle. The result of the Allentown con vention is quite satisfactory to the tariff reformers. They propose to take advantage of the situation and present a plan for the reduction of the revenues. The plan being pre- paied will conform strictlv with the tariff' resolution there adopted as it is construed by the President. It abolishes tobacco tnx but leaves the whiskey tax where it is and will make a large reduction in the cus- toms revenue?. The Internal Revenue feature is admitted ps a compromise, and will be treated, only in connection with very positive reduction of customs. There t:11 be no acknowledgment of protection. It is likely that the reduction of customs will be more sweeping turn Randall estimates. Congressman Scott of Pennsylva nia was in Washington shortly be fore the Allentown convention and talked the matter over with the President and secretar' Fairchild. The administration is fully commit ted to strong altitude on tariff; while there has been no general confer ence ot a large number of men in one place there have been impor tant consultations between individu al leaders and the president. Mills, of Texas, who is to be chair man of the Ways and Means com mittee in the next House, is in the city and has had a conference with Mr. Carlisle. The Bureau of Statistics has been called upon lor figures on customs duties to show where the most ef fective reductions can be made and how the revenues wou.d be effected thereby. :o: : How Pale Tou Are! is frequently the exclamation of one lady to another. The tact is not a pleas ant one to have mention, but still theaet nay be a kindly one, for it sets the one addressed to thinking, apprises her of the fact that she is not in good health, and leads her to seek a reason therefor. Pallor is almost always attendant upon the first stages of consumption. The system is enfeebled, and the blood is im poverished. Dr. Pierce's "Golden Med ical Discovery" will act as a tonic upon the system, will enrich the impoverished blood, and restore roses to the cheek, dtt-wlw Su perior Tooth Brushes.

The police department receive! a telegram from North Carolina on the 1st inst. ask nig- that Rose Roobtt alias McT2l very, a mulatto, be arrested upon her arrival here. The charge against her was embezzlement. She was found on board the steamer Gulf Stream, and together with her daughter was brought to police headquarters. Instead of sending her down stairs she was handed over to Matron Webb,, who is in charge of lost children, and a police man was placed outside ot the door of her room. She soon investigated her prison and found that the closet in her room had two doors, one of which opened the way to freedom. She used it and walked down the stairs leading to the street, with head erect. The officer at the main en trance, thinking she had called foi the missingr child, .t&ketl her if she had found her lit It; one. She an swered in the negative, and passed out into the street. She was not missed until this morning, when there was quite -a commotion at the Central office, which has always been believed to be safe from the schemes or wiles of lavvbreakers. The daughter of the escaped pris oner wait left behind. Explanations all round are vn order to-day. :o: For the Asheville Citizen. THE GRADED SCHOOL.

The question of a h.mse is ro legitimate excuse. If no house, can be had then raise a tent;it is better to have these boys gathered from the field of mischief under the shade of our old oak trees than have the situation continued seven years; and many of thost! bovs have been cheated out of the little which this noble old Tar Jjtate have provided. It will not do to have the best, brightest; yea,grea'est, hope that ever entered the hosom of the poor men o Asheville to be thwarted by you who have been chosen as the guardians of their children to the extent of a liberal education. Now, gentlemen, take courage and go forth again in search of a house. Only just think of il how long since these little ones hid the privilege f good instruction and think how long it may be if put off before they can enjoy this privilege. In the name of these four thousand children I beseech you to make some provision for the opening of the school even though you divide up in small squads until yon can erect a house to protect them from the weather and be you well assured that many mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers will praise you and call your name blesSed.
