AFFAIRS OF TIIE RAILWAYS. Personal and Local, The Wabash has put ou Sunday trains out of St. Louis to suburban pleasure resorts. It is reported that Mr. Charles Francis Adams, jr., will decline to longer act as arbitrator in the pool of the Eastern trunk lines, as his presidency of the Union Pacific requires all his time. In the reorganization of the working staff of the Boston & Lowell now in contemplation, General Ticket Agent Kendrick is to receive the appointment of auditor, thus making a position for a first-class general passenger agent. John B. Carson, general manager, and A. B. Southard, general freight and passenger agent oftheL..N. A. &C. system, have this week been giving matters a general looking over, and indications are that the L., N. A. <fe C. will now enter the most successful business career in its history. The general passenger agent of one of the leading Western roads thinks that if the various agencies can be discontinued and there can be a joint agency at each important competing point, a pool may be made to hold, and, while giving the public the benefit of low rates, save a margin of profit for the roads. So numerous are the applications which W. S. Spiers is receiving, asking for appointment as joint agent of the Indianapolis east bound pool, it is proper to say that ho has nothing to do with the selection of said joint agent; the whole matter lies with the representatives of the several roads in the pool. Indianapolis shippers are loading twenty to thirty refrigerator cars per week with eggs and poultry. The growth of the refrigerator-car service is something wonderful. Five years ago there were not 200 cars of this character on the roads; now there are nearly 2,000, and the number is constantly being increased. A railroad official of an Indianapolis road, in commenting on the item in yesterdays Journal regarding spotters, said it was all rightfor news paper men to abuse them, but he thought well of them for the reason that putting them on their road for a couple of weeks a short time since was fully $5,000 a month in the treasury of their road. There are those who think it much more important for the 1., B. & W. people that they again secure control of the Champaign. Havana & Western road than that President Corbin should secure the T.. C. & St. L. for a St. Louis line. In former times the L, B. & W. often for months at a time would haul 100 to 125 loaded cars per day off of the C., H. &W. The Wabash passenger department is still lavish in its expenditures of high-priced advertising matter for general distribution. A stockholder remarked recently that on the day he received notice that the road had passed into the hands of a receiver, in the same mail, he received a batch of advertising matter printed on embossed cards, expensive maps, etc. Paymaster Sheldon is paying on the I. & St. L. division of the Bee line system for May service. It is very creditable for the railroad management generally of this country that employes are being paid with so much regularity. On but few roads does the paymaster fail to make his rounds monthly, paying for the service of the preceding month. Competitors of the 1., B. &W. and Wabash roads east-bound allege that these roads are giving a differential rate of $1.50 per ticket, for the second-class, as well as on first-class tickets, while under the pool ruling they are allowed to give but a $1 differential rate on second-class tickets. The matter is to be brought to the attention of Commissioner Fisk. The new train the Wabash people have put on between Chicago and Kansas City, via Forrest, Peoria, Jacksonville, Hannibal and Moberly is liberally patronized. Frank Palmer, who represents the Wabash passenger interests, is making it quite warm for competitors. The trains for this service are composed of Pullman sleepers, reclining-chair cars (free to first-class passengers.) peerless dining-cars, and elegant coaches, and run between Chicago and Kansas City without change of any kind every day in the year. Western merchants have complained for 3ome years of the high rate on wooden-ware under the west-bound pool tariff. This has been righted. Commissioner Fink announces by circular that wooden-ware, in car-load lots, which heretofore has been in the third class, will hereafter be fourth class, which reduces the rate per 100 pounds from New England and New York from 42 to 33 cents. Wooden-ware in less than car load lots, heretofore second class, is made third class, which reduces the rate from 71 to 57 cents per 100 pounds. An officer of the Wabash system writes that the newspapers are not doing the management justice when refering to the conditions of the Indianapolis, Peru & Chicago and the Cairo division or the system. He says: “I have been connected in an official capacity with both of those lines since the Ist of July last, and during that time have put 150,000 ties into the Cairo division track and 75,000 in the 1., P. & C. track. I expect by Sept. 1 to have both lines as well tied as any in the State of Indiana and with the improvement we expect to make in the way of new rail, etc., will have perfectly safe, if they are not strickly first-class tracks. Already over half the distance between Indianapolis and Kokomo is laid with steel rails.”

Bat Forty-Seven Miles of the Kel River Road To Be Built This Year. The committee of Eastern capitalists who have taken an interest in the Indianapolis, Eel River & Western road have been West, looked the ground over, and express themselves as pleased with the outlook. They have recommended to Chief Engineer Devore that he attempt this year to build only the forty-seven miles of road between the crossing of the L., N. A. & C. road, two miles south of Cloverdale, and the Green county line west, where excellent coal is reached. This will enable the company to place this coal on the Chicago market the coming winter. and will, as well, be a good thing for the L., N. A. & C. The grading for seven miles of this forty-seven is already in progress, Mr. Devore states, and he now expects to let the contract to grade the other forty next week. Ho says this committee has promised to advance funds as needed to pay for construction work, but under the preseut condition of the money market and railroad interests, they do not favor pushing construction work with too much vigor. Yet the committee stated that a few weeks later it might become apparent that it wonld be best to push the road, this year, on to Indianapolis. Cross-ties for the first forty-seven miles of the road are now being cut, and negotiations are now pending for the purchase of the steel rails. leased Lines the Wabash Will Drop. The following divisions of the Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific system, all of which are leased lines, it is stated Receiver Humphreys has recommended should be dropped by the Wabash people: The Indianapolis, Peru & Chicago, from Indianapolis to Michigan City; the Quincy, Missouri & Pacific, from Quincy, 111., to Trenton, Mo.; the Toledo, Peoria & Western, from the State line of Indiana to Warsaw, III; the Havana, Rantoul & Eastern, from West Lebanon. Ind., to Leroy, 111.; the Centerville, Moravia & Albia, from Centerville to Albia, Iowa; the Cairo & Vincennes, from Cairo, 111., to Vincennes, Ind.; the Champaign, Havana & Western, from Champaign to Havana, 11L, and the lowa division, including the linos from Albia to Fonda—in all aver 1,000 miles of road. It is proposed to con tinue the lease of the Detroit & Eel liiver division, and put the road-bed and equipments in good condition. The TANARUS., C. & St. L. Koad. To-day, at Cincinnati, five divisions of the Toledo, Cincinnati & St Louis Narrow-gauge railroad, which embraces all of the system except the St. Louis division, will be sold at auction by special master commissioners appointed by the United States Circuit Court There has been no sale of the St. Louis division ordered yet, and that fact alone is deemed sufficient to account for the tardiness of many of the bondholders in assenting to either the Quigley plan or the Corbin plan. Apparently the former plan, being the first one ofTerod, and being in charge of the trustees of the mortgage, has received

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, SATURDAY, JUNE L>B, 1881—TWELVE PAGES.

the assent of the larger number of bonds; but the Corbin committee have secured upward of SOOO,OOO in amount, and have declared their purpose to buy the road when sold. At the same time, Mr. Corbin is moving for a St. Louis outlet for his Indiana. Bloomington & Western, and he says that if his proposition to lease this road is not assented to he will build a parallel line. This is disclaimed as a threat by the Quigley syndicate, but announced as a fact worthy of timely consideration. The owners of parallel lines of the 1., B. & W., middle division, talked the same way, but the Corbin party built the road, and it is a thorn in the flesh with the Beeline and C., St. L. & P. people. Wabash and Missouri Pacific. St. Louis, June 27.—The rumors which have circulated for some says past regarding the severance of the Wabash railway from the Missouri Pacific have taken definite shape, and the announcement is made that on July 1 all heads of departments of the Missouri Pacific whose jurisdiction has been extended over the Wabash will retire from that railway, and the lines comprised in that system be operated independently of the Gould system proper, under anew set of officers. The road, in the future, will be operated by a much smaller force than now. The new officers will probably be a general agent, a general manager, a superintendent of transportation, a general freight agent, and a general passenger agent. The position of general agent is already occupied by Col. J. F. How; the other head officers nave not yet been determined on. The general managership was offered to Col A. A. Talmage, but was declined. Rumor places Col. Thos. McKintosh and Mr. Chappell, of the Chicago & Alton, with it, but nothing definite is known. The officers of the Wabash will be entirely sep a rated from those of the Missouri Pacific, both here and elsewhere, and all agents of the former will be instructed to compete with the latter the same as with any other road. The Wabash and the (J., M. & P. St. Louis, June 27. —The Wabash Railroad Company have entered into an agreement with a syndicate of capitalists, who are not yet named, by which the latter take off the hands of the former, the Quincy, Missouri & Pacific Railroad, extending from Quincy, Ills., to Trenton, Mo., with all attaching obligations. The objec t of the syndicate is said to be to operate the road from Quincy to St. Joseph. Mo., in opposition to the Hannibal & St. Joe. To do this they will construct anew road from St. Joseph to near a point on the Rock Island & Pacific, use the track of the latter to Trenton, and run thence over their own line to Quincy. This route will be only seven miles longer than the Hannibal & St. Joe, and is to be in complete operation within a year. A Railway “Deal” in Prospect. Pittsburg, June 27 --It is reported here that the Pittsburg & Lake Erie railroad is engaged in making a deal to secure an interest in the Pittsburg, Cleveland & Toledo railroad. President Andrews, of the latter, when spoken to, was very reticent, and stated that all he would say at this time was that he had accompanied General Manager Quincy, of the Pittsburg As Lake Erie, over the Pittsburg. Cleveland & Toledo line yesterday. Further than that, he had nothing to say. Miscellaneous Notes. The semi annual meeting of the National Association of General Baggage Agents will be held m Boston the third Wednesday in July. Steel rails are reported selling at S3O per ton for large lots—a price unprecedentedly low. There seems to be no bottom to the market. All employes of the Jersey Central railroad, working one-third time at Phillipsburg, Hampton and Elizabethport, since the last week in April, went to work on full time yesterday. This week a special train ran from Springfield to New Haven, sixty-three miles, in one hour and twenty-nine minutes, and had to slow up at Enfield bridge, the tunnel, and at all stations. It seems settled that the Denver & Rio Grande will pass its July dividend. Such a course, it is said, will not necessarily put the road into bankruptcy. but it will cause friends of the property to loge confidence in it, doubtless. “There is a great deal of anxiety on the street,*’ says the Stockholder, “as to Mr. Sage’s physical condition, as in the event of anything happening which would incapacitate him for business, the result might be very disastrous to Mr. Gould, who is heavily interested with Mr. Sage in a number of enterprises.’’ The coroner’s jury investigating the cause of the recent accident on the Camden & Atlantic road, place the blame on the engineer, Palmer, and Conductor Glenn, “who did not observe or obey his orders and the instructions and rules of the company.” They further found “that the orders, regulations and instructions to trainmen on this road were ample, if properly obeyed and observed, to have averted this accident.”

President Vanderbilt, in au interview with a reporter of the New York Mail and Express, assures the anxious public that he is “iu excellent health and spirits," and that his properties are ‘‘all right.’’ As to the depreciation of $50,000,060 in the securities of the Central, $15,000,000 in Shore, etc., why that is the work of those “mean fellows’’ and “sneak thieves.” the bears. Mr. Vanderbilt says he is in no way to blame. He can protect his individual holdings, and the “other fellows’’ must look out for themselves. It is seven or eight years since dividend-paying railroad securities have been marketed at the figures current this week. The Boston Journal, however, takes a hopeful view of the situation, and says: “It must be remembered that the extreme declines in the best railroad properties are the result of panic, and exhausted margins, and forced sales, and though the times are bad for those who are forced to sell, the immense recuperative energy in the country will come into play when the excitement of the extreme political season has passed away, and values will improve again.” THE COURT RECORD.

TIIE LAST DAY'S RACING. Finishing lip Thursday’s Programme—The Various Special Events. The first meeting of the Indianapolis Trotting Association was concluded yesterday, there being about 1,000 people in attendance. It is to be regretted that the meeting has not been a success financially, for the managers deserved credit and profitable patronage in their commendable efforts to bring good horses here and have interesting races. They have succeeded in this, but they have lost money by it. Yesterday was devoted to finishing up the races of Thursday, and to various special events, which were given as advertised. There were no disputes and tedious waits as on the preceding day. THE TROTTING RACE. The first event, yesterday, was the unfinished three-minute trotting race of tho day before, of which Lookout had won two heats, Jasmine one, and Prinston one. The horses got off, after tedious scoring, with Jasniine in the lead. She took the pole and was never headed, winning handily by four lengths, with Lookout second and Prinston third. Time, 2:361. The last heat was in the nature of a surprise. Jasmine was a strong favorite, having shown tho most speed, and being the steadiest. She led from tho stand, with Lookout trailing, up to the back stretch on the second round, when he made a play for tho lead. To the surprise of everybody Jasmine suddenly quit, and both tho other horses passed her, and she had to run to get inside the flag. Lookout won on a jog. Time, 2:382Summary: L00k0ut......... ...1 12*21 Jasmine 2 2 1 * 33 Prinston 33 3 1 3 2 Time—2:363*. 2:40, Note.— Jasmine and Lookout were not given a place on the fifth heat on account of a collision. THE UNFINISHED RUNNING RACE. For the unfinished running race, half mile and repeat, there were only two starters, Boston and Bozart, oach having won a heat. Daisy was distanced on Thursday, and Hancock sent to the stable for not having won a heat in two. Boston was the favorite, but showed up lame, and Bozart, ridden by Miss Burke, won in a gallop. Time, :53. Summary: Bozart 1 2 1 Boston 4 1 2 Hancock 2 2 r. o. Daisy dis. Time—.s2 Lj, :52 1 q, :53. TIIE SPECIAL EVENTS. The noted trotter, Fannie Witherspoon (2:17), was exhibited by her driver, John Splan, and went two heats, finishing in 2:24J and 2:341, the latter after a bad break. The stallion Revenue, owned by Mr. Woodmansee, and the prize beauty, Lady de Jarnette, trotted two half mile exhibition heats in 1:15£ and 1:14. For tho hurdle race, single dash, one mile, over four hurdles, there wero three starters, Martha 8., owned and ridden by Miss Nellie Burke, Hancock, also owned by her, and Angie P., owned by William Pack, of Tennessee. The race was a remarkable one. At the first hurdle (at the quarter pole) Miss Burke was thrown but not hurt, and her horse, Martha 8., finished the race, jumping the hurdles and keeping with the rest for the remaining three-quarters of a mile, and winning by two lengths. The judges gave her the race, holding that under the rules she was entitled to it. This finished the events of the day.

For the benefit of those who may be suffering with rheumatism or neuralgia, I give you the following as my experience: “I have suffered more or less with rheumatism for a number of years, also general debility. For the last year the trouble has constantly increased, so that for a month I could not dress myself, could not get up from my chair without help. From my head to my feet every cord and muscle was stiff and sore. During this time I used various remedies, all to no purpose, and continued to grow worse. My attention was called to your Athlophoros; I procured a bottle of our popular druggists, Jones & Bryant; on the 22d day of January I commenced to use it. I took five doses, then slept easily till 8 o’clock A. m. I got up and dressed myself and walked out without a cane. I was astonished at the result, could hardly realize that it had produced such au effect. lam getting to be an old man (seventy-two.)

SWEPT INTO TRE STm One Thousand Acres of Land and “Eight Smart of Bears.” On the deck of a big Mississippi steamboat stood an aged Southern planter. Indicating by a sweep of his arm the waters the boat was passing over, lie said to a passenger from the North: “When I was twelve years old I killed my first bear on anew plantation my father was then cutting out of a forest that grew directly over the waters of this bend. That was a mighty good plantation, and there was a riglit smart of bears there, too. But that one thousand acres of land went into the Mississippi years ago." It is putting no strain upon the figure to say that great forests of youthful hope, womanly beauty and manly strength are swept in the same way every year into the great, turbid torrent of disease and death. Yet it should not be so. That it is so is a disgrace as well as a loss. People are largely too careless or too stupid to defend their own interests—the most precious of which is health. That gone, all is gone. Disease is simple, but to recklessness or ignorance the simplest things might as well be complex as a proposition in Conic Sections. As the huge Western rivers, which so often flood the cities along their shores, arise in a few mountain springs, so all our ailments can bo traced to impure blood and a small group of disordered organs. The most effective and inclusive remedy for disease is PARKER'S TONIC. It goes to tho sources of pain and weakness. Fn response to its action, the liver, kidneys, stomach and heart begin their work afresh, and disease is driven out. The Tonic is not, however, an intoxicant-, but cures a desiro for strong drink. Have you dyspepsia, rheumatism, or troubles which have refused to yield to other agents?

Mr. SearlGß says: “ I am impressed that it is a duty I owe to those afflicted with Rheumatism or Neuralgia, to Bay that a remedy has been discovered that indeed a marvelous success. My son was greatly afflicted with Rheumatism, aud suffered so severely that, at times, he was obliged to have morphine injected into his arm to get relief. While in this condition lie discovered a remedy which effected immediate relief, and a permanent euro. Ho has since t urnished it to many others with tho same result. I have also furnished it to a number of persons suffering with Rheumatism, and the result has been immedieto relief, and a permanent cure. Among others, I gave it to Rev. Wm. P.
