AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Pergonal and Local. Conductor Conroy, of the Vandalia, still lies (seriously ill at Terre Haute. E. A. Ford, general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines, is to be in the city to-day. Commissioner Bransom is in Terre Haute taking evidence in the Illinois Midland claims. W. D. Wilson, agent of the Lackawanna line, lias opened his office temporarily, at' 192 South Meridian street. Superintendents have commenced hunting up ■empty cars which have strayed off onto connecting roads. This is a favorable indication. The contract for building three consol engines Ifor the Ohio Southern road, has been awarded to the Cooke & Danforth locomotive works, Patterson, N. J. Commissioner Spiers, of the Indianapolis easttiound pool, will to-day remove his office from the Board of Trade building to rooms 52 and 53 Vance Block. A. Vandivort, formerly superintendent of the river division of the Buffalo, New York & Philadelphia, has gone to New Mexico to take ■charge of some valuable mining properties. There is quite a boom in Toledo business. The agreed rate from Indianapolis to Toledo is 5J ■cents per 100 pounds, but one greedy freight agent, it i* stated, is taking grain at 5 cents. C. W. Hammond, superintendent of telegraph, Slaving severed his connection with tho Wabash road, Mr. Gr. C. Kinsman has been appointed lis successor, with headquarters at Decatur, 111. John Browning, passenger conductor, who has been on the Indianapolis & St. Louis road since it was opened for business, has tendered his resignation. Other conductors, it is said, contemplate taking similar action. Captain J. M. Phillips, formerly passenger conductor on the J., M. & 1., but now master of transportation of the G., C. &S. F. railroad, at Galveston, Texas, is prospering in his new position, and is pleased with his associations. The officers of the Vandalia system report the earnings of the T. H. & L. division to be a gratifying surprise. Not only in freight traffic are their earnings large,but their excursion business to Lake Maxinkuckee is proving a bonanza. The road which will test introduce wire screens on their passenger coaches, which will admit of a little fresh air getting into the conchas through the windows, without the passengers being annoyed by sparks, eta, will do an. act that will bo appreciated by the traveling public. Officials of the G\, 1., St. L. & C. are in excellent spirits, business being so good with them. On Thursday last 883 loaded and 146 empty ears were handled on the main line, and 118 loaded and 39 empty cars on the branches. President Ingalls says 1,000 loaded cars per day is about the handling capacity of the Big Four. John Egan, general passenger agent of the C., J., St. L. & C., same up from Cincinnati yesterday, to attend the monthly meeting of passenger •agents of Indianapolis roads. On arriving here lie found that these meetings had dwindled down to so little importance that even the secretary of tho association forgot to attend. The report that Col. Robert Andrews, of the Wabash road, had resigned, is confirmed. Mr. Andrews has been connected with the Wabash nearly twenty years. He expeots to rest in Delaware, his native State, for some time. He has occupied the positions of division superintendent, general superintendent, and chief engineer. Cel. Joseph Hill, superintendent of the Vandalia, and John Chesbrough, general passenger agent, are in the city. Both go west this morning. Col. Hill states that the track-layers on the northern extension are. within nine mile 6 of South Bend, and are waiting for the graders. They hope to get trains into South Bead by August 15. Probably the best time made between Indian xpolis and the seaboard with export business, was made by the White line last week. Property Which left Indianapolis on the 18th, at 10:15 p. M , -on the morning of the 22<1 was being leaded Juto vessels at one of the New York Central piers. It is not unusual for fast-line freights to Make even better time than this with west-bound business, but eastward property usually moves forward slower. Somebody evidently has confidence in the comedut of the Indianapolis, Eel River & Western road. Money from the East is coming forward to meet all liabilities as they accrue, and Chiefengineer Devore is arranging to push the enter-* prise more vigorously. He. as well as President Smith, sensibly argues that there never was a hotter time to build railroads; steel rails and railway supplies of all discretions never were lower, and labor is cheap. The following changes have been made in the St. Louis division of the Chicago, Burlington it Quincy railway: S. E. Crance, formerly assistant superintendent, has been appointed general manager of the Hannibal & St. Joseph railway; W. C. Brown, transportation master, has been promoted to the position of general superintendent of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy; P. A. Houlihan, assistant train-mas-ter, has been appointed train-master, and J. W. McCune, formerly traveling auditor, has been appointed assistant train-master. R. L Porter, formerly traveling agent, will serve as traveling auditor.

A Controversy Which Is Commanding Attention. The controversy between the Northwestern lines regarding the live stock traffic from the "West and Northwest is attracting considerable attention, and, really, it is of more importance than may appear on the mere mention. This trade begins in late July and lasts several months, and forms an important part of the fall revenue of Union Pacific and of the Burlington lines in Nebraska and Kansas. Up to last winter, Union Pacific divided its cattle business between the roads at Omaha—lately St Paul, Northwest, Rock Island, Wabash and Burlington & Quincy. Burlington Sc Quincy, having a line across the Missouri river, thus secured a double share of business, receiving the tribute of its own lines at Plattsmouth and its share of Union Pacific business at Omaha. St. Paul relielled a year ago, and the result was the forma t'on of the Western Trunk-lino Association This association is composed of Union Pacific, St Paul, Rock Island, Northwest and Wabash. Os these lines, Union Pacific, St. Paid and Rock Island are in entire accord. Northwest and Wabash came into the agreement rather unwillingly, and there is some doubt whether Northwest actually signed the compact or not. The essential points in the association are that the roads therein shall give all their west-bound business to Union Pacific, and shall have all east-bound business delivered by Union Pacific. The roads east of the Missouri river can make rates and Union Pacific can make rates east. The prospective trouble comes in the form of a demand from Burlington that it be given a share of Union Paeiflo cattle deliveries at Omaha, as of old. The demand is coupled with a threat of reduced rates if the demand is not complied with. The Conductors Must Be Kept Busy. Under the head of the evolution of conductors .the Hartford Courant begs for the good old methods of railroading when the passenger was suffered to repose quietly after haring displayed bis ticket once. The check given in exohange, nn the obverse of which was the conductor’s name, on the reverse a table of distances, was pleas-, antly and easily disposed of in the hat band or the back of the seat in front At the end of the trip the conductor gathered in these instructive slips, and the passenger, waking from his( long nap, alighted content with himself and all the rest of the world. Now he buys his ticket, a trifling and sometimes almost invisible card, and taking great care not to lose it 4n the. depths of his ticket pocket, settles down to - Hence and sleep. The conductor rudely disturbs his dream before the first flag station is reached, and punching the pasteboards hurriedly with a die representing an old hat or a shoe, a ircscent or a heart, he passes on, half Willing, half loath, to take the ticket with him, but finally deciding to leave it The passenger settles himself again, but at the next station, a dozen miles away, though he tries to keep the cardboard in sight, he is again roused up that the conductor may decorate the ticketwith an-

other old hat, or crescent. Thus, if a traveler travels say seventy-five miles upon an accommodation train, he is liable to a dozen or more Os these interruptions, introduced apparently for the sole purpose of keeping the oondueter busy. What the Train Dispatchers Propose To Do. The train dispatchers of the Denver roads met at Denver on Wednesday last, and elected seven delegates to the national convention, to be held in Louisville, Ky., August 2. The following are the instructions of the organization to the delegates: First—Any person who has served as train dispatcher for a period of not less than oue year shall be eligible for membership in this association. Second—All general superintendents and assistant general superintendents shall be admitted to this association as honorary members. All division superintendents, superintendents of telegraph and train masters shall be admitted as members. Third —That we favor the adoption of the twenty-four-hour system of time. Fonrth—That eight hours' work shall constitute a day’s work for a dispatcher. Fisth —That we favor the adoption of the double order system of train orders. Sixth—That uniform signals for train service be adopted, and that we favor red as a signal for train orders at telegraph offices. Seventh —We discountenance the use of intoxicating liquors by employes. Eighth—We emphatically denounce the resolution of the Fort Worth association, viz.: Superintendents, train masters, etc., who are members of this association, shall be bound by their mem berehip to give employment to members of the association in preference to others, etc., etc., as being unjust and uncalled for. Difficulties on the Narrow-Gauge. C. E. Henderson, general manager of three divisions of the Toledo, Cincinnati & St. Louis, returned from Dayton, yesterday, having partially straightened out the demoralized condition of things on this poverty-stricken railroad interest. The divisions which are under control of the Corbin syndicate are as follows; One hundred and fifteen miles from Dayton to Wellston, eighty-six miles from Dayton to Delphos,and what is known as the Southeastern, of the TANARUS., C. <& St. L., which extends from a point near Wellston to Ironton, some fifty miles. Some of the papers speak of the last division as being the Dayton & Southeastern, which is a mistake. On twelve of this fifty miles there is a third rail, not standard gauge as has been stated, but four feet ten inches gauge. Mr Henderson states that the Corbin syndicate will let the road be idle rather than pay the rental for engines and cars demanded by the equipment company owning them, which has been for months past 65 per cent, of the gross earnings. Manager Henderson has enough engines and cars borrowed from other narrow-gauge roads, however, to keep trains moving until other arrangements are made. Mark Your Baggage. George Venn, general baggage-master at the Union Depot, has returned from the annual convention, held last week in Boston. While in - Boston, and on his trip going and coming, he enjoyed himself greatly, and speaks in very complimentary terms of the manner the baggage agents were treated by their New England comrades. He reports several important resolutions as having been adopted by the association. Among Other things, it was resolved to appeal to the eye, in the general interest of philanthropy and the crusade against petulant profanity. It was decided to place posters at all stations requesting passengers to have their baggage plainly marked with their names and permanent address. When it is contemplated that hundreds and even thousands of pieces of unclaimed baggage annually find their way to the baggage-rooms of the great railroads of the country, and that owing to the carelessness and negligence of passengers a large proportion of it can never be returned to its rightful owners, it will readily be seen that this arrangement must eventually be the means of preventing much trouble and annoyance, not only to the railroad companies, but the traveling public as well.

A Matter to Which Commissioner Fink Should Give His Attention. The diverting es business to even up per cents, of the trunk lines in their west-bound traffic is still causing mueh complaint among merchants. Only yesterday an Indianapolis merchant received goods, which had been ordered shipped by the Merchants’ Dispatch but had been diverted to a round-about line, that had been on the road twelve days. There are a half dozen lines which would have brought them through in seventy-two hours easily. The fact is that if this method of diverting freight is to be continued some plan should be devised so that the evening up be done on a class of freights that may be delayed without inconvenience to the consignee. Thore is always property of this character to be carried. It is very trying to a merchant to have to wait seven or eight days over time for the purpose of maintaining pools. An Important Position Goes Begging. The resignation of Thomas Nickerson, president of the Mexican Central road, wili take effect Aug. 4, and Mr. Isaac T. Burr, a director of the company, and well known as president of the Bank of North America, has been chosen to fill the position until a permanent successor can be selected. For this position the Hon. Levi C. Wade, the vice-president, and Mr. A. E. Touzaltn, vice-president of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, are both mentioned with favor. The Boston Advertiser says: “Under ordinary circumstances such a position would not go begging; but it is no common responsibility to take the executive headship of more than 1,200 miles of new road in a foreign country, ia times like these, and when one's friends and neighbors are investors in it to the extent of from thirty to forty millions.” Beal Estate Transfers.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. . Those Blank Certificates. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: Sineo Mr. Shiel denies issuing blank Certificates for reduced railroad fare to temperance people only who favored his views, I will say he sent ten such certificates to Mr. W. P. Stunkard, of Brazil, a Democrat-National, known to favor anything calculated to embarrass the Republican party. Rev. H.. M. Middleton, pastor of the M. E. Chureh, and county chairman of the Prohibition Council of the State, was the proper officer to whom the certificates should have been sent —Mr. Stunkard being Mr. Middleton’s predecessor. and not now an officer. But, ha vine refused—with the hearty appproval of all true Prohibitionists in the county—to call a county convention at the instance of Shiel, for the purnase of sending delegates to the convention for nominating a Prohibition ticket, this worthy Christian gentleman and earnest Prohibitionist was passed by. He was not even given a certificate. but paid full fare on the road. Nor was he admitted to the Shiel-Democrat annex when he arrived. A. F. Bridoks. Brazil, Lad., July 25, 1894. The Career of the Political “Reformer.” To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: The result of my forty years' observation and experience is that a common gutter drunkard, of Democratic antecedents, and with a tendency to “politics," after being restored to decency and elevated to a position in society through the loving labor of God-inspired women and men, will, in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, permit himself to be used by his party leaders, and will, for a consideration, prostitute himself and his influence to further their base ends in defeating all reformatory work which may be in conflict with party policy. And that, almost invariably, such men end where they were found, in the gutter, where their Democratic friends leave them. Cokbistencv. Two Sensible Prohibitionists. Convention Gossip in Pittsburg Dispatch. The doorkeeper got terribly excited yesterday afternoon. Someone started a rumor that the Prohibitionists are going to defeat the Republicans in Illinois, Minnesota. lowa and Kansas, thereby knocking Blaine blear out The doorkeeper repeated it to everyone that came in. and rejoiced exceeding much over the prospect of crippling such big game. Au elderly lady from Michigan, with flaring bonnet, linen duster and woolen mits, stopped and listened to a part of : the story. “What be that you say about Blaine?" she asked, apparently very much interested. “Why, we are going to beat the Republican party and knock him clear out. Won’t that be glorious?” and he chuckled gleefully. “Not according to my way of thinking, it won’t, for I consider the Democratic party as very little better than the devil, and there can no good com© of boosting him." “Yes, but can’t you see how it will bring them to time when " “No, I can’t; can you, John,” she said turning to her husband, who was carrying the carpet sack. “No, dang me if I kin." They showed their tickets and passed in, evidently not pleased with the anti-Blaine scheme of the enthusiastic doorkeeper. The Independent Movement. Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. There was tio cohesiveness in either speech or action. Each person is to think for himself and act for himself,and the movement develops simply the plan of an unorganized opposition with no candidate or central idea as a rallying point Mr. Bcharz, Mr. Gurbis and Mr. Cod-man had previously said they would not vote the Republican ticket, ai>d yesterday said so again. That is the size of the whole movement.

Where the Fire Is Out. Magic No More a Mystery—Seen from Across the World. “Haroun of Aleppo,” said Sir Philip Derval, “had mastered every secret in nature which the nobler magic seeks to fathom. He discovered that the true art of healing is to assist Nature to throw off the disease—to summon, as it were, the whole system to eject the enemy that has fastened on a part. His processes all included the reinvigovation of the principle of life.” ■ In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated the practice of the best physicians of to-day. What life itself is, nobody knew then—nobody knows now. But we have learned something of the reasons why the mysterious tide rises and falls. Provided the great organs of the body are not irreparably destroyed, medical science can always relieve, and often save. Yet no reputable physician now adheres to the barbarous and stupid processes Os depletion, such as bleeding, by which it was attempted to cure disease by reducing the patient's ability to resist it. Nsw-a-days we do not tear down the fort to help the garrison—we strengthen it. In this intelligent and beneficent work, it is ooneedsd that PARKER’S TONIC leads all other medicines. As an invigorant it acts immediately and powerfully upon the circulation and the organs of digestion, thus giving Nature the assistance she calls for. It follows that all ailments of the stomach, kidneys and liver are at once relieved or cured. No other preparation em bodies the same qualities or produoes similar results. It is delicious to use, and the best known anti-intoxi-cant. Price 500 and sl.

Facts and Reasons. Cffeets Produced by AYER’S SARSAPARILLA and by Nothing Else so Perfectly.

It strengthens and invigorates sufferers from enervation, languor, weakness, and mental depression. It has an almost magical effect in curing eruptive and cutaneous disorders. It eradicates from the blood the taint of that terribly destructive disease, Hereditary Scrofula. It expels from the system the baneful poison of Mercury, which is as serious as that of Scrofula. It purifies and regenerates the life current polluted by the corruption of contagious disease. It stimulates the secretory organs, effects the removal of all impurities from the blood and makes it new, rich, and pure. It restores health to sufferers from Uiin blood and impaired vitality.

Advantages that AYER’S SARSAPARILLA Possesses over all Others.

It ts composed of the most efficacious alterative, diuretic, and toniadrugs known In pharmacy, among which are the genuine Honduras Sarsaparilla, Yellow Dock, Stillingia, and the iodides of Potassium and Iron. It is a highly concentrated medicine, scientifically and honestly compounded so as to secure to it the highest degree of activity and perfect uniformity. It has received the hearty endorsement of the leading men in the medical profession, who recognize it as a standard pharmaceutical preparation, and prescribe it in their practice. It contains no poisonous minerals or other dangerous drugs, tho use of which for temporary effect in the many crude and cheap mixtures sold as alteratives, produces effects on the system often worse than the diseases they are offered to cure. It costs no more than any other, but would still be the cheapest blood-purify-ing medicine in the world, even were its pnee three times greater, since it is the ©aly one that does “real, lasting good."

It saves, by its thorough purification of the blood, from Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, aud Tubercular Consumption. It cures Scrofulous affections of the Liver aud Kidneys, and their symptoms, Jaundice and Dropsy. It cures Scrofulous Catarrh, Itching Humors, and the purulent Sores caused by Scrofula. It clears and improves the complexion. It neutralizes the poisons left in the system by Diphtheria and Scarlet Fever, and restores the debilitated patient to perfect health and vigor. It is, in Short, an unfailing remedy for all disorders arising from impurity of the blood, where such disorders have not become so deeply seated as to be beyoud all human aid.

It has been before the public for nearly forty years, and has constantly grown in popular favor, both at home and abroad, until there is hardly a place in the civilized world where it has not a host of friend*, made so by Its marvellous cures. It has been used in, and approved by, at least 4,000,000 families in the United States, and 7,000,000 throughout the world. Women have especial reasons for commending it. It has proven its potency in curing obstinate, deeply-seated, and long-stand-ing diseases caused by vitiation of the biood. It must not, however, be expected and is not claimed that a single bottle will cure such cases; but patients should perseVere in the use of tins remedy until a radical cure is effected. It is the only blood-purifier that has won and retained the confidence of the people of all tropical countries, where such medicines arc much required. It is the only medicine of its class that sailors, as a rule, have any faith in —and they are right.
