iU’FAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal and Local. Some ten engines on the Pennsylvania system are now being equipped with an electric locomotive headlight. H. R. Dering, assistant genera! passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines, is off on a two Weeks’ pleasure trip. At last accounts he was in Maine, on the seaboard. C. S. Kingsbury, agent of the Adams Express Company, at Cleveland, 0., is named as the probable successor of R. B. Poore, division superintendent, deceased.. West-bound business is reported remarkably lieaw for August, and as the Lackawanna and "West Shore lines are leading in tonnage it is believed they are slaughtering west-bound rates. William Hill, general passenger agent of the -Chicago & Eastern Illinois road, is mentioned ■in connection with the position of general passenger agent of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road. The Dayton coal pool, in which the L, B. & W., 'the Bee-line, and the C- t H. & D. roads are interested, and which expired by limitation Aug. 1. has been continued indefinitely by a vote of Ithe roads, the same rates to remain in force. The earnings of the Columbus. Cincinnati & Indianapolis railway for the month of June ■were: 1884, $283,712; 1883, $338,999. Decrease, $55,287. From January 1 to June 30, 1884, $1,083,680; 1883, $2,004,490. Decrease. $206,815. The local freight agents’ association, recently organised, will meet, to-day, for conference as regards rules adopted as to the collection of freight charges, and to also appoint a responsible I>arty on each road to ‘ 'O. K. ’’ all bills of lading. E. St. John, general passenger agent of the Bock Island, announces the appointment to the r ition of assistant general passenger agent of A Holbrook, late general eastern passenger agent of the Chicago & Northwestern, the appointment to take effect Aug. 15. Business is improving with the express companies the last few days, and a heavy fall traffic is looked for. This indicates an inprovement in business generally, as there is no better pulse of trade than the volume of business done by the express companies, both in carrying money and freight. L. W. Munhall, who has just returned from Europe, has in preparation an address on the railroads of the old world, which he proposes to deliver before railroad men at prominent railroad centers. In a brief talk he mentioned several interesting points regarding railroading in Europe which he will bring out in his address. The New England passenger business of the (Bee-line for June and July was 50 per cent, heavier from Indianapolis and this immediate territory than for years past The up town office, the better equipments; and the excellent time the Bee-line and its connections are making igive the road the prestige cf former years on 'New England traveL

In the twelve months ending June 30 there were killed on the Indianapolis division of the Bee-line 8 horses, 37 head of cattle, 27 head of jhogs, 89 sheep. The company make it a rule that their live stock coroner shall settle with parties whose stock is killed as soon as reported, and by so doing they were enabled to settle for all stock killed during the year at 48J per cent, of its appraised value. The local passenger men are still slaughtering rates. Tickets to|Kansas City first-class, were sold yesterday at $9, regular fare $15.25. This method of doing business is attracting the attention of officials in high positions and should the outside offices be again closed the local agents need blame no one but themselves. Commissioner Richardson has been asked to look into the matter and suggest a remedy, although it is outside of the Chicago and Ohio River pool. Dealers in railroad supplies report their orders increasing: however, the building of new railroads continues very dull as compared with former years, for which there are various causes, the most prominent being the stringency in money matters. New railroad companies find it almost impossible to convert their bonds into money, and the work cannot be done on wind. Moreover, business has been unsatisfactory with the roads already established, and they are doing but little in the way of expanding or repairing. From a Wabash official it is learned that the new •deal regarding fast-freight lines means that the present line will be allowed to operate on the system, but the Wabash will not participate in the expense of maintaining the lines. All their cars are to be painted and lettered “Fast-freight-Line,” and will he allowed to do through freight service, when any line wishes for such service, and will pay mileage on such cars. For instance, were a Red line car is wanted at a certain station and none is at command, the Wabash people, at the request of the Red-line management, wili load one of their cars with through business and charge mileage. The object of the Wabash management is said to be to unload some of the heavy expense of sustaining fast-freight lines with which they are now burdened. Commendable Enterprise, The track-layers on the northern extension of the Vandalia expect to reach South Bend by August 20. The manner this extension has been pushed by the McKeen syndicate, in spite of the depressed times, is highly commendable. In 1883 the McKeen syndicate, owning the Terre Haute A Lo&anspcrt road determined to extend its line from Logansport, Ind., to South Bend, Ind-, 07 miles. In May and June, 1883, the track was laid from Logansport to Marmont, on Lake Maxinkuckee, 33i miles, which was turned over to be operated by the Vandalia line, under lease, in September, In November, 1883, 101 miles were laid, from Marmont to Plymouth, aud turned over to the Vandalia in June, 1884. 1b May and June, this year, track was laid from Plymouth to Lakeville, 13 miles, and is now bring thoroughly ballasted. From Lakeville to South Bend is 10 miles, the grading of which is nearly completed, and t{ie track will be laid at once and ballasted. The work of building this extension has been very thoroughly done, the maximum grade being 26.4 feet per mile, except going out of the Wabash raDey at Logausport, where it is 40 feet per m l“- Maximum curvature, 34 (1,910 feet radius); 2 800 white or burr oak ties per mile; 60 pound steal rails, reinforced angle splices, split switches, and Bteel-rail spring frogs, and all work of track superstructure of the very best. English Fallacies on the American Railway System. A most Intelligent article appears in the last number of the Anglo-American Times, entitled “English Fallacies on the American Railway System." Je contain* very many truths. That the American railway system has suffered most from the depression wbioh has attacked all branches of trade is not to be denied, but the Times gives excellent reasons for it “No ether, ” it says, “could suffer to a like extent, because no other can compare with it iq magnitude —the American net-work being the vastest, most costly, and doing more business, employing more hands jind handling more money than any other national industry anywhere else. Were the securities of English railways attacked as have been ours, the Times thinks they would have fared no better, and perhaps even worse. That the American railway system has been abused most prodigally none will doubt. The Times concludes its article as follows: “As Held for investment it is worth nearly aU the world presents besides. It is the rising field, that whieh yields to the judicious invester the largest return, which fJnqes before him the greatest scope, which stands on the most secure imsis—the well-being of the most prosperous of all nations —that which no disturbance can materially disturb, and one of the cmly things which may be said to be safe from the ravages of war, the owners erf which cannot be removed or driven out. The Union Depot art Indianapolis Once the Frlde of the Country. It will be thirty-ope years the Ist day of, September since the first train rah into the Union Depot. For twenty-one years Indianapolis wa* the only point where there yrt)a a strictly union depot., into which the trains of all roads ran. Thirty years ago, Uncje Billy Jackson says, the Union Depot was looked upon, the country over, as a grand

structure, and for years after people would travel out of their way to pass through Indianapolis, to look at the much-talked about Union Depot, which is now not more than one-third large enough to accommodate the fifteen roads whoee trains inn into it. When the depot was opened to traffic the trains of but three roads ran into it. A couple of years later those of five roads At the present time there are union depots of the character of the one at Indianapolis at but thlee points—Kansas City, St. Louis and Columbus. There are so-called union depots at several other points, where two or more roads occupy tho same depot, but only at the four cities named do all roads run their trains into the union depots. Movements of the 1.., N. t A. A C. Officials. General Manager Carson, of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago system, with his associate officials, Dunn, general superintendent, McDori, general freight agent, and Bent, master of transportation, spent the yesterday forenoon looking over matters at this terminus and in the afternoon inspected the Air-line division. This was Mr. Dunn's first visit to Indianapolis, and he expressed himself pleased with the get-up of the town. Mr. MoDoel met several shippers and expressed a desire to accommodate them as far as practicable, and expected a fair share of the out business in return. He took well with shippers, as the expression goes. Mr. Carson said no other changes of importance were contemplated, although no policy as to the future management of the road had been fixed upon, except that they were going to do their best to lift the road up to the position it was entitled to among she road3 of Indiana. Too frequent changes in the management was one of the misfortunes of the road. He thought, however, that when the business men became acquainted with the present officials matters would move along smoothly, business would be good and the earnings more satisfactory than ever before. The Chicago A Eastern Illinois. The advance sheets of the annual report of the Chicago & Eastern . Illinois Railropd Company, for the fiscal year ending June 30, show tho following earnings and expenses (those for June being estimated): Gross earnings for year ending June 30. $1,562,870 Operating expenses 845,024 Net earning $717,846 Fixed charges 524,203 Surplus $193,643 No dividend has been paid on the stock for three years, the surplus earnings above fixed charges having been used in improving the property. Since the reorganization of the company there has been expended to May 21, 1884. in equipment and improving the property, $1,701,307. President Stevens and his associates are showing marked ability in handling the property financially and improving it physically. Coming Changes on tile Wabash. St. Louis, Aug. 6.-—A report is current In railroad circles here that General Manager Taintedo will shortly relieve some division superintendents of the Wabash road and fill their places with men whom he has tested in years past, and found specially fitted for a certain line of duties.

Miscellaneous Notes. The Memphis, Selma A Brunswick railroad and franchises are advertised for sale at Holly Springs on the 11th day of August The first through passenger train from New Orleans for Vicksburg, it has been decided, will leave New Orleans on the 16th of August when traffic will be formally opened over the new line. The Toledo, Cincinnati &St Louis Narrowgauge road has demonstrated the fact that the narrow-gauge has no advantage to justify its existence, except that it makes it easier to coax money for construction out of men with more money than knowledge of railroads. The real station indicator is yet to be invented. All devices, thus far, are fnlsiAers. If it flops over one station came every time, the train stops, then a hot-box or a pig on the track will move the whole line along out of place, and the train can never catch up with the indicator, even if actually ahead of time, except by skipping by one station. If it works on the timelock plan, then it is never right, for it will lie. A writer in the Journal of Railway Appliances says: “We hear just now of a number of new stations that are going up at various points, and wish, ere it is too late, to insist on a single point —which is that the ticket-window shall be low enough for a small man, high enough for a tall man, and broad enough for any man, and with a broad sill, low enough for the smallest ordinary woman to eoust her change as it lies thereon.” The Denver & Rio Grande has fitted up a special car for the accommodation of tourists and fishing parties Who wish to visit Spanish Fork or Price canyons, or Pleasant Valley. The car is new, and is provided with seats similar to a Pullman car, and the beds can be made up in sections. The car has two compartments—one for ladies and one for gentlemen. No charge is made for the use Os the oar, which is left at different stations, subject to the pleasure of the party. The State of Massachusetts has secured a clear title to the Hoosac Tunnel, securing such title on Saturday last by paying $300,000. The purchase includes all interest in the Troy and Greenfield road, the great bore and the Southern Vermont railroad, and also the stock of tho old company. General Herman Haupt, of' Philadelphia—who contracted to pierce the Hoosac mountain in 1856, made another contract in 1858, and finally went out of the enterprise in 1862, when the State foreclosed its mortgage on the road —held or controlled about 18,000 of this stock. India is having a squabble over its railroad gauges. There are no less than five railway gauges in India—the five feet six inches, or broad gauge; tho three feet three inches, or njeter gauge; the four feet, used on the Azina gapj railway; tne two feet six-inch gauge of the Gaekwar of Baroda's line, and the two feet, or military gauge, of the Himalayan railway. Practically, tho contest now lies between the broad and meter gauges. The most important lines have been laid on the former, and the broad gauge is the proper ope to survive. What is now desired is uniformity, as the present breaks of gauge and consequent shifting of goods adds considerably to the cost of transport, though Indian roads now pay. Best genuine French grape brandy, distilled extract of water peper or smart weed and Jamaica ginger, with camphor essence, as combined In Dr., Pierce's Compound Extract of Smart Weed, are the best possible remedies for colic, cholera iperbus, diarrhaea, dysentery or bloody-flux, or to break up colds, fevers and inflammatory attacks. •UMimus PEariM THE BEST THING JZNQWN fob Washingaad Shacking In Hard or Soft, Hot or CoM Water.

It u a fact that remedies almost without number, already contest the claim to care all the ills that afflict suffering humanity. Thousands have found them powerless to work a cure for them. No diseases have so baffled ail attempts at permanent relief as have Rheumatism and Neuralcure. For centuries they have been considered beyond the power of medical .kilt to cure. And yet we say both can be cure3, and that Athlophobos win do the business. The best proof that it can do it is that ithas done It Rev. 8. E.
