AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal an<l Liooal. • Presidents Ingalls, McCullough, McKeen and Devereux, left for their respective homes last •yeniag. William Pavmalee is to act as agent of the Hoosac tunnel as well as of the West Shore lino at this point. VT. D. Wilson, agent of the Lackawanna line at this point, has deeided to remain in room 15 Union block. •E. W. McKenna, superintendent of the J., M. & 1., is confined at-homo in a tus3el with the chiils and fever. Mr. A. J. O’Beilley has been appointed agent of the Eockawana line at Louisville, Ky., in place of Mr. W r . T. Hamilton, resigned. It is stated that the nine-hour rule is meeting ■with a good deal of favor among employers, especially in locomotive and railroad shops, and in • few of the smaller shops. This week the Wabash management began running through lightning passenger trains. Under the arrangement there will he two sections nf 42 and 43 between Decatur, 111., and Peru, Ind. The McKeen syndicate, which owns the Terre Haute & Southeastern road, have decided to string a telegraph wire along the line. This is the only road in Indiana which has no telegraph wire. President Ingalls states that the freight earnings of the C., 1., St. L. & C. in September will run some $9,000 ahead of corresponding month last year, while the passenger earnings drop behind some $4,000. Manager McOrea and Superintendent Miller, of the Pennsylvania lines, will remain over today and will visit the new shops, and decide wliat to do regarding further improvement to the shops and yards. James Snodgrass, transfer agent of the C., St. L. & P. at the Belt road crossing, returned yesterday from Carrol ton, Ky., with a life-mate. His associates were yesterday congratulating him on the step he had taken. W. E. Everest, late general manager of the Hoosac tunnel fast-freight line, yesterday assumed the position of general Western freight agent of the New York. West Shore & Buffalo,. •with headquarters in Chicago. J. M. McCullough, vice-president of the Pennsylvania lines, says the Chicago & Ohio river pool is the model pool of the country, and expresses the wish that the Trunk line pool was on as permanent and harmonious basis. For the second time it has been decided by the eourts that patents on extension boiler for "looomotives has expired. Now this improvement will likely be adopted by a majority of-the roads in this country, more especially on their passenger locomotives. All lines west of Pittsburg, owned and controlled by the Pennsylvania company, in the month Os August earned $500,000 less than in the corresponding month of 1883, while the operating expenses of these lines was reduced $3lO, 800 in round numbers. Paymaster Shephard, of the Wabash, paid on the Indianapolis division, yesterday, for August. Paymaster Shepherd is steadily gaining time, and by next month will be aroufid as promptly as any road’s pay-car, where one paymaster covers;so large a mileage. The Indianapolis Car Works built 278 cars in the month of September. President Milliard set the number to be built at 300. aud eueh would have been the result had not there been a break in machinery in the wheel foundry, which delayed matters in this department. Mr. Garrett owned about 40,000 shares of tho common Btock of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad company, or about two-sevenths of the whole. Estimates of his wealth made by persons who have had close business .relations with him vary greatly, and range all the way from $5,000,000 to $30,000,000. ’ Eugene V. Debs was re-elected grand secretary and treasurer of the B. L. F., and Samuel M. Stevens grand organiser at the anuual meeting at Toronto. Tho next meeting will be held at Philadelphia, in September. 1885. As an or ganizer Mr. Stevens has done big work tho last twelve month. The friends of Charley Pierce, an Indianapolis ■ y>ung man now agent of the Merchants' Dispatch at Minneapolis, will be g)ad to leayn that he has been heard from. He was on his way to >ew Orleans when last heard from, having’left ; ■h escape an attack of the typhoid fever, lljp

accounts were all as straight as a string, and the sudden disappearance is attributed by the papers to a temporary affection of his mind. M. E. Ingalls, president of the C... 1., St. L. & C. this week closed a contract with the McQueen Locomotive Works to build four first-class ten wheel engines, weighing forty-five tons each, and two first class switching engines weighing thirtytwo tons each. Lafayette Car Works are .also building 100 box cars for the Big Four. J. D. Kerahaw has been appointed auditor of the Chicago & Atlantic road, vice Russell Elliott, resigned. Mr. Kershaw was educated in railroad matters under Mr. Elliott. The latter contemplates returning to Indianapolis and opening a house for the sale of huntsmen’s, fishermen's, and sportsnieu’s supplies, fishing tackle, etc. Vice-president McCullough has instructed freight agents of tho Pennsylvania lines to the effect that they solicit no east-bound business at i the present low rates, but if business is offered j and cars are being sent east empty that they I load such car.- He thinks it unwise to wear out ' road-bed and equipments for the sake of showing a big tonage. Someone advises the English stockholders to bring suit against J. Gouid to recover their money sunk in the Wabash stook aud bonds. The advice created, so it is said, quite an excitement in London. It would be well for the gentlemen to leeall the fact that they might have made money if they had bought when Gould bought, and sold when he sold. Col. Shaw, of the 1., B. & W., yesterday brought through from Red Oak, lowa, eight carI loads of people en-route for Ohio. The excursionj ists passed the following resolutions: “That we | tender our sincere thanks to the C., B. & Q. R. ' R-, and 1., B. & W. R. R., for furnishing such ample accommodations for the comfort of pas seugers on tho excursion, and be it further “Resolved, That our thanks are in va especial manner tendered to W. J. Davenport of th© lowa division of the C., B. &Q. It. R., and Col. Bill Shaw, general Western .passenger agent, of the 1., B. & W. R. ,R.” The Chicago ami Ohio River Pooh The members of the Chicago aud Ohio river pool continued their session yesterday. The time for which the pool was organized having j expired, it was voted to continue it intact until ! Nov. 1. The statements of Commissioner Richardson show that the C., 1., St. L. & C., in th© five pools, is ahead of its per oeuts; the C., St. L. & P., in connection with the J., M. & 1., is also slightly ahead; the 1., B. & W. and C. &E. I. arc about even, while the Cl, H. & I. and the L., ;N.A. &C. drop behind. There was a little friction in the pool yesterday because M. E. Ingalls, president Os the'C., I , St. L. & C., objected to evening up in cas)|, Mr. Ingalls taking the grounds that lie had only earned what the L., N. A- & C. Air line and C., H. A I. would have earned had thpy continued ithe. Chicago and Cincinnati traffic arrangement, and it mp- ! parently was through his efforts that the change was brought about. So he is entitled to the business. As at the meeting no agreement could be reached, the matter and all other minor matters i relating to the old.pool, where an adjustment is needcdT were referred to a committee consisting i of V. T. Malott, L. N. Richardson and Robert Forsythe. A,resolution was then adopted that I the pool, as .at present, continue un til Nov. I, and that Commissioner L. D. Richardson take up .all matters pertaining to the pool organization, and arrange and report his views as to formation of future pools, it being agreed that this pool lmd been a great saving in revenue to the lines in interest, and should be continued. The proceedings in detail qf the committee appointed to .arrange and perfect a plan for pooling all business via Cairo and Evansville was presented before the meeting, and it was agree-1 that the whole mat ter be referred to V. 2’. . Malott and Commis- 1 sioner Richr(lsoh, with power to aot, and they to agree and decide upon what basis and percentages the other lines be admitted. The meeting then adjourued to ineqt at Chicago Oct. 22,1884, and hear reports of committee. Advance In Last-Bound Rates. Commissioner Doherty, of the. east, bound pool, at noon yesterday received a telegram from Commissioner Fink to the effect that the Chicago roads lmve.entered into an agreement to advance rates east-bound to ,a basis of 20 cents per 100 pounds, Chicago to New York, on grain, and 25 cents per 100 pounds qn provisions, and requesting him to notify Xndianapo Us east-,bound lines of .stuch action. Commissioner Doherty yesterday afternoon

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2,18 SI.

called the freight men together and all agreed to this morning advance rates to the Chicago basis, which makes the rate on grain from Indianapolis to New York 181 cents per 100 pounds, provisions 23 cents. In the three days past rates have been so demoralized there was something of increase in east-bound business, bnt notso much of an increase as one would naturally expect. Tlic Situation Improving. With the favorable report of the Pennsylvania road proper the stock has advanced practically 1J cents in th© last day or two, which is remarkable for this usually steady ruling stock, and the situation generally is improving. Negotiations between the Trunk lines aTO making good progress toward harmony or a better understanding, with a fair prospect of getting the Grand Trunk of Canada into working harmony with the American lines, and the protracted dispute between the trunk roads west of Chicago have been settled for the time being, at least. The expectation of larger traffic during the winter is doubtless the cause of these approaches toward aggeement. In the East, the position of tho West Shore road as a competitor with the New York Central continues to boa disturbing intluence, and the common opinion is that the Central people will by and by he discovered in control of the West Shore, an opinion strengthened by the positive statement tliat the Central company has male an issue of $15,000,000 in 5 per cent debentures. Railroad earnings are still, as a rule, behind those of last year, so far as gross receipts are conoerned. Becoming an Immense System. The approaching completion of the Huntington line through Tennessee draws attention to this vast combination, the greatest in the country, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific aud the gult of Mexico, and embracing nearly 8.000 miles of railway, carrying acapital of $219,000,000 and debt of $235,000,000. This is not tho possession of one man, hut one man holds the keys and the clews to the combination. The roads exist, hut whether they will be able to keep atloat and not yield to tho dread angel of foreclosure remains to be seen. Receivers for tire West Shore. New York, Oct. I. —Judge Daniels, of the Supreme Court, to-day appointed Judge Horace Russell and Theodore Houston receivers of the New York, West Shore & Buffalo Railroad Company. The hearing on the application for their appointment was had at Bnffalq, more than a week ago. Tho application was made in a suit of the United States Trust Company, to foreclose a mortgage made to that company as trustee, on ■Aug. 5, 1881, to secure an issue of $50,000,000 in bonds. Judgo Brown, at Newburg, appointed Messrs. Houston and Russell receivers of the railway company, and application was made to Judge Daniels-to set the appointment aside, on the ground that tho application should have been made in this city. This,fie did, hut he said he would regard an application made by a majority of the stock holders as an original application, and upon it appointed the same gentlemen as receivers. New Mileage This Year. OuiCAOd, Qet. sAn advance slip of tho Railway Age says: It appears that fron Jan. It© Sept. SB, this year, £,533 miles of main track have been laid on 120 lines in 40 States and Territories, against 4,244 miles duriug tho corresponding perioiLm 1883, aud 8.075 in 1882. It is noted.that, most of. the work this year is being done bn branches and.short connecting or independent lines. Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers . San Francisco. Oct.

Mayor Bartlett delivered an address of welcome, and Grand Chief Engineer Arthur made liis annual address. Tho convention will probably last three days.

A PLEASANT ACQUAINTANCE. A Citizen of “Jay”-viUe Contributes $65 to a Confidence Swindler. Townsend D. Palmer, of Terre Haute, reported to the police yesterday morning that he had been robbed of $65 by a confidence man whom he had met at the Union Depot the night be ore. He had got on the C., 1., St. L. A C. passenger train in the evening, having started to Gainesvi.le, Fla., where his son is lying dan gerouslv ill. He told an agreeable stranger where he intended going. The train was closely , crowded, and Mr. Palmer was persuaded by the ! stranger to wait until 11 o’clock at night, when there would be better accommodations and | they would go together. Be waited. The two j walked about tho city during the evening, and l the new-found companion. :in the course of the | conversation, told Mr. Palmer that .he would take with him two young ladies who were his daughters, all of which was very pleasant to contemplate. Neai ‘he Iron Block the stranger was suddenly reminded that he owed a small j debt which he could .not think ,of leaving unpaid, and asked Mr. Palmer if he could loan him a few dollars until a cheek could be cashed when tliey reached Cincinnati. Palmer drew from his ! pocket a roll of bills, which were taken from him by the stranger, who, after counting out SOS, walked himself away, stating that ho would return in a few minutes. After an hour or two of anxious and hopeful waiting, it dawned upon Palmer that he had been victimized, and he repotted the matter to tho police. THE ‘CITY IN fill LEE.
