AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal and Local. FI. M. Simpson has been appointed agent of the 0. I. St L. & C, at St Paul, Ind., vice C. C. Gilmoro resigned. The Indianapolis Car Works yesterday com pleted 750 of the 1,000 coal cars they are build ing for the Ohio Southern road. H. B. Dunham has been appointed traveling freight and passonger agent of the Cleveland. Mt Vernon & Delaware railroad, with headquarters at Akron, O. N. K. Elliott, master of transportation of the Vandalia; Goorge Farrington, treasurer, and J. It Kendall, assistant general freight agent, are in the city in attendance at the Scottish rite conclave. James T. Hasfoni, for several years agent at Chicago or the Erie & Chicago line, has been pointed general traveling and passengor agent of the Georgia Traffic Association, with headquarters in Chicago. Regarding the Wabash, Mr. Gould says the new plan of reorganization is in progress, in which large concessions will be made, which he be lieres will be eminently satisfactory to the Kuropcan bondholders. There is a rumor current that J. N. McCullough, first vice-president of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg. will shortly retire. Chicago Times. The Times will learn before many days that he is not the man that is to retire. The Pennsylvania Company has just published a varv handsome, aud complete map, black ground work, with its lines west of Pittsburg made prominent by a heavy white mark. The stations, as well, are named, and crossings of other roads designated. Cftarles Neilson. superintendent of the Buffalo division of the Erie road, having resigned, W. .J. Murydiy, superintendent of the Delaware division, will be appointed to the position. Edgar Van Elton, chief train despatclier of the Dela ware division, succeeds Murphy. Air. Gould is said to have lately contracted for 25,000 tons of steel rails, to bo delivered at *>L Louis during the coming year, to be laid iqH>n the roads coinposinv the Southwestern ays tom, making a total of 35,000 tons .that have recently been contracted for to be laid upon those roads. Shipments of stone over the roads which bring this class of material to this point have been Lruvier the last five months than in any corresponding period since 1873 —of building stone, alum, an average of fifty car loads per day—the several public buildings which have been built taking about twenty-live car loads per day. ilaylord Boach, general road-master of the Bee-Hne system, is in the city. He states that this month 1,850 tons additional of steel rails have Leon distributed on the I. & St. L. division, and when this is in the track the euliro Bee-line system from Cleveland to Indianapolis, Gallon to Gtncinnati, and Indianapolis to St. Louis, with the exception of thirty live miles, will be laid with steel raik from sixty to seventy pounds to the yard. The proposed reorganization of the Erie fastfreight lines, mentioned in yesterday’s Journal, Is creating considerable talk in railroad circles and among shippers, and the feeling is general that should President King replace H. li. Duval, general manager, and T. A. Lewis, assistant general manager, with other men, it will be a great mistake. Both officials are hard workers, ind have done more than any other men to make the Erie popular with the shippers of the West. As the time approaches for George W. Ristwo's retirement as commissioner of the Transrw.tinental Association, there is considerable in tcreel as to who will be his successor. The position is an important one, and, from the fact that it pays $12,000 a j’ear to the incumbent, applisnntsarenot wanting There are about a halfJozen already in the field. Geo. W. Lilley, J. V. Rockwell and P. P. Slielby are named as prrsons who have friends working the wires for them. Victor Wildman is supervisor of sectiou Bof the road-bed of the Pennsylvania railroad, New York division, reaching from Trenton toStelton. A committee of railroad experts has just decided for the third consecutive year that he is entitled to the prize of SIOO that the compauy gives annually to the supervisor of the best-kept section of track. It is said that a glass of water, filled to within half an inch of the brim, was carried •over this section on the window sill of a passenger car, thirty miles in thirty five minutes, without a drop being spilled. Uis said to be highly probable that at the ooiniag annual meeting of the Indianapolis Rolling mill Company definite action will he taken looking to the conversion of the old mill into a merchant iron rolling-mill and the new steelrail mill into rolling heavy structual work for building bridges, etc. The compauy are now examining a pneumatic process of making iron which will avoid puddling. Should the test prove satisfactory the new process will be adopted. It is claimed that by this process a l*oi ter quality of iron is made than by the pinidling process. President Malott and Commissioner Richard - •ou of the Chicago and Ohio River pool, will to day go to Cincinnati to hear General Man ag*T Waite’s argument on the settlement of the pind per cents Owing to the illness of Major Abram Hendricks, who was to accompany Mr. Malott for the purpose of settling questions riding between the 0., 1L & I>. people and the tion Railway Company, the latter matter will b<- deferred for a short time. On Monday next tb- above officials will be in Chicago, and listen to die argument of General Manager Carson, of M*- L., N. A. & C. road, regarding pool ner Be u is. The Pennsylvania company has had a corps of tnoers at work this we**k running a line from 3: 1 aire, (>., to Bridgeport, along the edge of tl.- Ohio river. No positive information as to tin* object can be gathered, but it. is believed that they intend to make a short line of some Is uni between the two pluces .that will cat off the .probability of the Baltimore Sc Ohio extending its tracks to the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling, * preliminary survey for which was made in. nths ago. The Cleveland & Pittsburg could pul a short liue that far that would answer all purposes for the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling, and thus cut off the Baltimore Sc Ohio. Sineo the Oirion Railway Company was orgnn5/..’*d <My 1. 1884,) the number of. trains handled tit the Union Depot has been kept account of, t*> saivo a> a basis for paving the Union Depot expenses, and the statement of Auditor Ijains shows that an average per month of 493 traius for the 1..

Are East-Freight Lines Necessary? The Railway Register seems so have begun an earnest warfare against fast freight lines. In the issue of the 15th the Register says: “Out; < r two railway men, in occasional interviews v iUi newspaper reporters, have sagely remarked t hat fast-freight lines are necessary. Os course ihey are necessary to the hundreds of agents, solicitors and officers who aro supported by t'heni. They are regarded as necessary by the men connoctMtl with railways who phare Li the commissions paid bjr their rnpam>s cm busrmw. But how or in U * ,M aspect nre they m**a6sary to the puhlio or i.iiiwjiy aompauies fiheineeivieHf Among the

'-right men connected with railways, aro then those who will point out the benefits of fast freight lineal Let us hear from them if then ire any. and so learn something that many other: would like to know also. While without ques tion there are too many fast-freight lines, a fast freight line operated on the phui of too Uuioi line or others of like character, which might be named, whore a road owns the cars, appoints its own officials and agents, it can hardly bo said to be a laak on the earning of the road, as were the whole turned over to tinroad direct, an equal number of cars, agents, clerks, etc., would be required. Then without question line agents givo special attention to forwarding freight promptly, which they would not be so likely to seouro wero fast freight linos done away with. Not a Money-31 aklug Institution. So many business men have an idea that any reform introduced by the Union Railway Com panyor any stop taken to cut down expenses of tho roads centering here is a move to directly aid financially the Union Railway Company that an explanation is due the latter. Any railroa" or business man who will study their methods of doing business will, without trouble,discover that the Union Railway Company is not a money making institution. They propose to do the switching service at this point, the .transfer work over the Belt road,and furnish depot facili ties at the actual cost of so doing. The road which runs the most trains into the Union Depot pays the largest per cent of the cost of operating the Union Dopot, while the road which makes the longest milage over the Union tracks or over the Belt road pays the most toward operating and maintaining the Union tracks and Belt road. The business done at tho depot over the Union tracks or the Belt road is kept entirely separate. To illustrate: since the pres ••nt method of keeping accounts was adopted the 1., B. & W. has run more passenger trains into the Union Depot than any other company, and consequently pays more than any other com pany toward paying the expenses of the Union Depot The C., 1., St. L. Sc C. has made the largest mileage over the Belt road, and pays more than any other road to maintain it, while the Vandalia has made the largest mileage over the Union tracks; and the several roads are asked only to pay their share of the operating expenses of each on the actual benefit they receive. There is no surplus fund being laid aside. Each month the expenses of tho month are summed up, and each company is asked to pay only its share of that sum, the amount being based on the actual servioe rendered. The books are open to any railroad man to examine, and it seems to be the intention of Manager Malott and Auditor Ijams that no road shall have any advantage over another, whether they bo members of the Union Railway Company or lessees. _ The J*. & O. Directors. Baltimore, Nov. 20.—At a special meeting of the board of directors of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, to-day. Robert Garrett, vice-president of the company, was elected president; Samuel Spencer, second vice-presi-dent, was elected vice-president, and Thomas M. King, general superintendent of the Pittsburg division, elected second vice-president. The board also elected Bradford Dunham general manager of the entire B. &O. system, and William M. Clements general superintendent of its main stem aud branches. It also confirmed G. J. Forencro as general superintendent of trains— Ohio divisions. On being informed of his election, Mr. Garrett said he accepted the office with a full appreciation of tho high honor and a deep sense of the responsibilities of the position. It would be his aim to adhere closely to the traditional policy of the company, to which was duo Its great success in the past, and in carrying out that policy, relying on the directorsand officers of the company for advice, assistance, and active co-operation, lie should not shrink from tho responsibilities which are attached to the office, nor hesitate to indulge the hope that the success of the road in the future may be as marked as in the past It is understood a resolution was offered fixing tho salary of tne president at $25,000 per annum, but this amount was declined by Mr. Garrett, aud at his request his salary remains the same as when he filled the office of vice-president Sale of m Railway. Pittsburg, Nov. 20.—The franchises, property, rights of way, branches, tracks and all other attachments of the Pittsburg Southern railway were sold this morning, at sheriffs sale, to Thomas M. King, representing the Baltimore Sc Ohio Railroad Company, for $50.000. The line runs from Pittsburg to Washington, Pa., a distance of thirty two miles. It has been in debt to an amount exceding $1,000,000 for some time, and was unablo to pay the interest on this indebtedness. The Baltimore Sc Ohio was the largest creditor, and has hud virtual control of the road for nearly a year. Miscellaneous Notea. The Cleveland rolling mills have resumed operations, giving employment to some 3,500 men. Mr. Huntington's interest in Central Pacific is alleged to bo less than ever beforo, and the foreign holdings larger. The Boston Sc Albany road built in its own rib ops this year nine locomotives, 203 nrerchan dise cars, ten passenger, one postal and two baggage oars, and one dining-room car. Tho Little Rock Sc Fort Smith and Mississippi River & Texas roads expect to make connection with the Mississippi Y r alley road about Jan 1, which should benefit the former roads materially. Mr. Vanderbilt has been for the past ten days a buyer of tho West Shore receiver's certificates, and it is thought tliat the next legal problem offered the West Shore managers will be difficult, to sol vo. Papers defining the position of the West Shore bondholders, who are opposed to the present policy ol' the road, are now being circulated for signature. This may lead to a termination of tho rate war. Government management of railways Is not thru? far a conspicuous success in France. A deficiency of 22.000,000 francs m the railway guarantee fund is proving a source of great annoyance to the department of finance, aud it ha3 finally been determined to use for its payment funds set apart for school purpose*. The Boston & Albany company owns fiftyfour first-class passenger engines, 159 freight engines and thirty switching engines, making a total of 243 engines. But few, if any, roads in this conn try are better provided with locomotive power than the B & A. Its passenger engines the hist year have run L 949.970 miles; freight engines, 3,551,108 miles.

Prof. Collett says that one of the direct and most important results of the workings of this department is the development of the vast Indiana coal fields. Before the initiation of the geological survey Indiana coal was used only for blaeksraithing and locally for fuel. The examinations made proved conclusively its parity and generally good qualities, ajid also indicated the abundance of tlie supply. Reports were issued by State authority. They wore read, believed and quoted. In this way the resources of the State were advertised to the world, and the attention of capitalists, miners and manufacturers was attracted. Before the survey the coal lands of the State were worth from $2 to $lO per acre. They now sell readily at from ssl) to S2OO per acre, while Indiana coal is used to a very large extent by railroads and manufacturing establishments, and for household purposes. Not only have its uses extended over the State itself, but it ffnds a profitable market in the neighboring States, and extensive shipments are made as far west as the State of Kansas, and the reports issued showing its good quality have either suggested or aided the construction of four or five important railroads, and prepared the way tor others. Placing the aver age extent of counties included in the coal region at 250,000 acres, tho increased value of previously unproductive lands would exceed $30,000,000, and adding the incidental benefits, would reach more than sloo,ooo.ooo—representing more than a thousand per cent, profit on the cost of the survey. Indeed, the increased shipments from a single town in one county alone represent annually more money than tho entire cost of the survey. Similar results have accrued to other branches of business which have been developed as a consequence of a knowledge of the resources of the State ascertained by tho survey. The Geological Imports have gone over tlie whole laud, and their accuracy has scarcely been questioned. Tho highest scientific authorities of this country and Europe have commended them as meritorious, while scientific journals, magazines, and newspapers of the eastern Hnghtnd. Germany and France have copied extracts with oeutmciidatioQ maasjiclmaetts, although so much older, may well take a lesson from Indiaua iu the matter of liberal provision for ascertaining aud making known her natural resources. It not enly pays _ jMMMioiasrßy, hut, as Prof. Cotton eaye. the eur•vey is a good educator “ft tumbles every one to under?* and the gwdnpy of his -eenoty, the

minerals he can or cannot find; saves useless and expensive search, and sends forth men so posted that some of the most profitable enterprises in other States have been begun and conducted by those who wero Hoosier boys." Picture Pram ing. Dcmoreat'* Monthly. A good deal of attention has been given to tho artistic framing of pictures recently, and very novel effects may be produced which make a handsome subject of tho simplest engraving or colored photograph. For a large picture, a cheap and unique frame may be manufactured of an ordinary pine frame, over which is tacked, crossing at the corners, thro© rows of small ropo —the usual clothes-line grass rope being tho proper kind. Tack or secure the ends on the back of the frame, so that when the picture i3 fastened within, heavy brown paper or muslin may be pasted over as a finish. After the ropes aro on, stain tho whole in imitation ash or oak; then with gilding, bronze, or the blue, rose and copper tints that may be bought, touch the rope lightly over either at intervals or entirely. A mat of coffee-sacking gilded, or some of the rich Japanese papers that may be bought reasonably, would harmonize well with such a frame. Old frames covered with velveteen of any rich shade, with a mat of Madras drawn full over pasteboard, come out quite handsomely. Another effect may be made by fastening Binall leather straps, tinted or gilded, across the corners. Buuches of fruit on dark walnnt, ash or oak frames—that is. a single bunch at the upper right hand corner, with a bow of ribbon—have taken the place of flowers. An old frame may be made new by covering it with a puffing of tinsel gauze—the ordinary tarletane would do—and a pretty mat within. Instead of the plush ami leather standing frames for photographs, very artistic ones can be made of two pieces of water-color paper pasted together and one side cut with openings for the cards. They are to be made like the panels of a screen, and shaped with some kind of points at the bottom so as to stand when joined. This joining of, say, a couple or three panels is done with filoselle fastened through eyelets pierced at the top and bottom. A briirht gold or dark red ribbon, tied in a doubled looped bow is pretty. When the frame is made it may be tinted a delicate shade with watercolor, and ornamented with stray blossoms, or bits of creepers, or a little sentiment worked out in quaint lettering. It would be better to cut the exact pattern of each panel in brown paper, so as to leave the opening for the cards properly, beforo attempting to make it up in water color paper. It works out very nicely, and is a dainty conceit for a gift.
