THE RAILROADS.
The Records of Trains Handled dhow a Handsome Increase* ,..
58
Bits of Hews Gossip Gathered Among the
t-
Railroads-
The following is the report of railroad business handled at the "State capital: The train records for the week ending August 22, make a very favorable exhibit, all roads showing an improvement in business. The tonnage of last week exceeded that of any week thns. far this year. A comparison of the car movement last week with that of the week ending August 15, shows 3,250 more cars were received and forwarded in the week, ending the 22d, than in the preceding week, and of this increase, 1,916 were loaded cars and, what is better still, a decided improvement is shown over the corresponding week 1884, there being 2,715 more cars received and forwarded, of which number 1,4(56 were loaded. For the first time this year the demand for empty cars to load for the east Is greater than the supply, and the demand from now on for several months promises to increase rather than lessen, as while there is but little wheat moving eastward there is a sharp, movement of old corn and oats, The lumber men as well, are beginning to talk business. Westbound the tonnage is heavy, beyond parallel in August in fact, is seldom heavier at any season of the year. Through live stock traffic is still at a very low ebb. North and south roads are doing better now, having considerable through business, as well as a good local traffic.
Local and General^'
The miners who left the mines at Koeedale still stand firm, and matters are in statu quo.
On account of this the Logan
runs two coal trains a day less. The Yandalia folks do not contemplate an early reinstatement of the electric locomotive headlight. Its expense of maintenance proved too great a drain on the coffers.
In case the "great demand for cars," which is reported elsewhere, should strike the Illinois Midland railway, they have sidetracked at Paris, 111., enough to save the road from embarrassment.
The coal yard built by the E. & H. company last spring, just south
ol
Poplar street, has answered the purpose intended. Since the high board fence surrounds it there are no complaints from dealers relative to the cars falling short of the required weight. Prior to last spring instances of this nature were of frequent occurrence, which tended to reflect unpleasantly upon the management. "President Mackey manages to put in about eighteen hours out ot the twentyfour in hard work," remarked a gentle man acquainted with Mr. Mackey's mode of living This is what some people term "good management." It is a fact that the road has shown an increase 6f "earnings" over like months of last year. But the "earnings" are the result of iow wages and discharged hands. For instance, there is in existence on the E. & T. H. no office of "Master of Transportation." The work that should devolve upon this office is distributed. Such a deficiency is like an engine without a drive-wheel. His own men say he is losing dollars to sate cents.
Mr. George Howard, yardmaster of the E. & T. H., has tendered his resignation, to take effect September 1st. By his leaving, the E. & T. H. railroad will lose a man than whom they can find none better. Mr. Howard entered the service of the road six years ago in the capacity of engineer. After three years he was given the position of he now occupies. Those who know say Mr. Howard has done the work of two men. Having refused repeated offers from more lucrative positions he has at last decided to accept one on a Southern road. Mr. Ben. Johnston, foreman of the E. & T. H., also another well known railroad man, is spoken of favorably to fill the vacancy soon to occur.
RED TAPE.
Superintendent Lawlor Prefers Charges Against Two Officers—One Repri manded and the Charges Against the
Other Dismissed. Sergeant Dundon and Patrolman Early were suspended Sunday night by Superintendent Lawlor, the former for disobeying Rule 5, which says: "The wagon (patrol wagon) shall not be taken out by any one without orders from the superintendent, except on strict police business." The latter for alleged violation of the rules and regulations, as found on page seven of the "Regulations Governing the Police Force," to the effect that "Any member of the force who shall misrepresent or withhold any facts from his superior, or make any false statement to or about any brother officer, shall, upon conviction thereof, be dismissed from the force." The police board was called together today to investigate the charges. Several witnesses'were introduced. .Sergeant Dundon testified that on Sunday afternoon he gathered some fine crab apples at his place at the corper of Tenth and Spruce streets, and he desired to give Captain .Vandever a basketful. About 8:30 o'clock Sunday evening he went to Broadhurst's restaurant, on Fourth street, and telephoned fot the wagon to go to the corner of Tenth and Spruce streets. The wagon left 'he stable in charge of Driver Burke and Officer Early, and Hhey were joined on Fourth street by Sergeant Dundon. They went to the corner,of Tenth and Spruce and there the sergeant got the apples and took them to Vandevers residence, when the wagon was returned to the office. Mr. Early was relieved soon afterwards by the superintendent, who claimed that Early had misrepresented the affair to him.' Dundon was relieved about 11 o'clock. Early claimed that he thought it was a call for the wagon for strict police work, and that be thought he would go to the C. & E. I. telegraph office, the nearest telephone, and learn who telephoned, but -that he did not go. The superintendent claims that he said he did go, and that he (the superintendentj found out later that Early was not at the office. Sergeant Dundon claimed that he thought he was doing no wrong that the superintendent had sent the wagon out ot the city limits on olher than police duty. Commissioner Clift asked when this was, and the sergeant said when the chair the police presented to Mrs. Scholi was taken to her residence. "What do you know about Superintendent Lawlor using one of the patrol horses to go to a funeral?" asked Mr. Clift.
The sergeant said he knew nothing about it. The board sustained the charges against Dundon, and he was given a reprimand. The charges against Early were dismissed.
Messrs. Dundon and Early had charges ready to prefer against the superintendent, but tney were'not presented. Mayor Kolsem said the boys only went to Tenth and Spruce and arrested a basket of apples, and delivered them to Vandever.
St. Anthone's Benefit.
The worthy object of this evening's entertainment at the Opera house should attract a large audience. St Anthony's hospital is one "of tie most deserving charities of the city, and has done a vast good. Aside from this the^ntertainment will be an excellent one, including the laughable scene from "Hunchback," the farce "Dead Shot," selections by the Kiuggold orchestra, and a solo by Mi-is
Louise Kussner, her first appearance- before a Terre Haute audience. The admission is bat fifty cents, with no extra charge for reserved seats, which may be secured at the Central bookstore.- •.

Crazed by Whisky, a Young Man Shoots Four Persona and Takes His Own Life. Special to the Indianapolis Journal
SAi/EM, Ind., August 23.—About 5 o'clock last evening, Fred Berkey, jr., son. of Fred M.

Payne was out driving with a friend, and after being shot his murderer, draped him out of the buggy. Berkey then got into the buggy
nd com pellet Payne's friend to drive on. tried to escape from the crowd of incensed citizens in this way, but finding it impossible, he put the revolver to his head, sent a ball into his brain, and died in less than fifteen minutes.
Nineshots were fired by 'the drunken fiend. Berkey belonged to on& of the best families in the place, but constant drinking ruined him. When drunk he was murderous in his inclination, always seeking a quarrel, and willing to carry it to death.
