The Railroad Commission at the session during yesterday transacted the most important business that will , probably ever came before that body. The rates for passenger and freight trafic over the various main railroads and branches of the State was de finitely settled, after a most careful exchange of views with the leading officers. It was agreed in substance that the commissioners standard tariff should continue on most of the main lines, but that on branches, or on lines on which the expenses were barely met by the receipts, or on which from causes the cost of building and equip ping such branches were more than ordinarily heavy, the freight and pas senger rates were placed at a uniform rate, of three and a half cents per mile for first class and three cents for second class passengers. The roads in favor of which this discrimination is made are as follows: Oxford and Clarksville, Murphy Di vision, Yadkin Railroad, North Wes tern, N. C. Road, Louisburg Branch, Carolina Central, Scotland Neck Branch, Al. & Raleigh ro d, Cheraw & Salisbury. Wilmington and Weldon Railroad and branches add ten per cent to commission's standed tariff, classes 4. 5. 6. A. B. E. H. commisions tariff on all others. Lynchburg & Durham, 3i cents for 1st class and 3 cents for second class. The Commissioners will probably adjourn ther present session next Monday. Pic Nic. Central M E.

Special care will be taken of the children by the Superintendent and teachers. No child should stay away should the parent be unable to go. The Grandest Success of the Kind Ever Known in Raleigh. To say, the big special sale at Swindell's yesterday was a grand suc cess, would very mildly express it. The sale was advertised to begin at 10 o'clock but long before that hour the vast crowd began to assemble, and a few minutes past 10 o'clock the entire store, and sidewalk and street in front of the store was completely blocked with people from the country and the city, both joung and old. By this time the crowd was so great, the store being literally packed and jammed rendered it utterly impos sible for us to wait on the trade. The only thing left for us to, do was to ask part of the crowd to retire, so the sale could go on. We very much regret being compelled to call In officers to assist in clearing out some of the crowd, but it would have been utter ly impossible for us to have waited on any one bad the entire crowd re mained in the store. We sincerely hope that all who retired will thor oughly understand, and appreciate our situation; it was not our intention to offend any one. Our next special sale will be next Friday, June 5th. On that day we will place on sale a big lot of childrens and misses hose. No. 6 to 9 1 2 at iOcapair. These goods are slightly imperfect, but are richly worth 25c per pair.
