The American Express Company will re-estab-lish an office at Brazil with the opening of the (Chicago & Great Southern road to that point The L, D. & S. road earned in the three weeks {tending March 22 $23,725.43, an increase of over earnings corresponding period £BBS. > M. R. Spellman, superintendent of the Shell (Beach road, formerly on the L, D. & S. road, |s seriously ill. He has recently had two severe (hemorrhages from the lungs. Oscar Vanderbilt, whose veracity will not be anestioned, says George McKenzie, of Chlcaeo, as behind the ticket scalping office recently (Opened under the name of Sisson & Cos. George Wakefield, of the Wakefield & Haynes Yellowstone Park Stage Company, was in South (Bend, last week, purchasing carriages and stages for the park tourist business this season. The Rolling Company hold their regular quarterly meeting on Tuesday next, when it is •xpeeted some definite action looking to the up of one or both of the mills will be (taken. Superintendent Woodard, of the L., N., A & CL system, is in the city. He will remain over to-day. Mr. Woodard is exhibiting large executive ability in straightening out the affairs of Ahis road. The American Electric Locomotive Head-light Company will hold their annual meeting in this city April 20, when measures will be taken to introduce their light, which is now thought to me perfect in every respect A great deal of railroad projecting is going on. Railroad building would soon be overdone if one-half the projected roads were built Steel sails are selling for $35, and may advance before end of the year to S3B, it is stated. The Vandalia is taking all freights for Western and Southwestern points, St. Louis proper excepted, and making as good time as via St fjouis, the Illinois Midland and Wabash running Sas express freight via Decatur, Hannibal and t Joe. The Chicago, St Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha goad announces the following appointments: Oliver F. Briggs, general agent, with office at (Omaha, and F. B. Whitney, assistant general freight agent, with office at Minneapolis. Both jxppointments will date from April L Wo. R. McKeen, president of the Vandalia; jtaaes McCrea, general manager of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, and Gaylord Reach, general manager of the Bee-line, are to be in the city to morrow. The object of their visit is to locate the new union depot Commissioner L. D. Richardson is still busy endeavoring to straighten out the snarls of the |£orth and South Lumber Association. Wm. orr will be in Chicago April 8, when a date will be agreed upon for holding a meeting of the Rortb and Sonth Lines Lumber Association. Fully 2,000 par-loads of lumber have been shipped from California since the low rates have Ten Uuion Pacific cars have arrived at Indianapolis in the last few days, and red cedar shingles are now selling in this market at 9# per thousand and Michigan pine at $3.50. The former are muoh the more durable. The Corbin party now claims proxies for 35,1)00 shares of preferred stock of the Cleveland & Canton, to be used in changing the management In May. A majority is about 31,000 shapes. Within the past few days the common stock has declined in quotations from 54 to 3J. It is unSoeetionably Mr. Corbin’s policy to make the C. i CL a part of the I, B. & W. system. A meeting has been called for to-day at the Rurnet House, Cincinnati, of representatives pf roads interested in carrying freights from Cincinnati, Louisville, Jeffersonville, New Albany Evansville and Cairo to points in Middle And Western States’ territory, to perfect tariffs jpow under consideration. It is expected that the pleating will continue in session at least two At a meeting of the trank-line freight oom--Bittee, held March 23, it was agreed that ship■nts of flour in sacks, for export, shall not be Killed to the same rate as flour in barrels, unis the following provision of the east-bound vdasaification is stamped or written on the bill of Pading: “Entirely at owner’s risk of all damage excepting that occasioned by ears being

A representative of the wooden-wheel hand ear i in the city exhibiting one of these cars. The 1,, B. & W. and the I. & V. will test them. p?he points claimed are the lightness of the ear iead its durability. It would be a grand thing for President Mackey to introduce them on his lines, where he is said to have one man to a section, as one man can take them o ft or plaoe them on the track. The Chicago Inter-Ocean says: There is considerable activity and bustle just now about the S Dices of the Central Traffic Association, which •ve already proven too small for comfortable arork. Active preparations are being made for putting the new east-bound passenger rates into pfifd Thursday, although the commissioner has (trot yet decided the vexations question of differentials. The subject of arbitrating the question percentage to be allowed the lines of the 'jClrieago pool is now under consideration. Commissioner Blanchard has called a meeting pf the Central Traffic Association in Chicago Wednesday, April 14, when the representatives pt the different lines will meet the arbitrator, land present their arguments in detail. Mr. Riddle will attend with a view of disposing of the isukjject as speedily as possible. On Thursday, Central Traffic Association will be held, when reports will be received from the pools at Cincinnati, Louisville, Indianapolis, St Louis and /Peoria. There are no grounds for the impression that slro opening of the Chicago & Great Southern jroad to Brazil and the block coal mines of Clay county will be damaging to the T. H. & L The foruu-r is a direct north and south line, while the T. H. & L is a direct east and west line, and its T. H. & L. division reaches into territory not (reached by the C. & G. S., and further, the” C. & f&. 8. will needs use the T. H. &I. tracks to reach the various mines, and President MuKeen, Receiver Kimball says, is acting very honorably |s affording them facilities so to da TheL., N. A. & C. people ask connections to pecept Michigan City weights on lumber: but to }|~ becoming expensive business. For instance, yesterday the L , N. A. & C. tnrued over yo the C., 11. & D. a car-load of lumber billed at 88,900 pounds. The C., H. &D. people thought (the car was overloaded, weighed it, and the car proved to have 45,900 pouuda on. Why the L., N. A & G. wishes to haul 7,000 pounds of lumber JGpr nothing or ask connections so to do is a mystery. Certainly the lumber rate from Michigan pity to Indianapolis is low enoueh at theprasent |lfe to require shippers to pay for actual weight

4 .The statement that A. M. Billings, of Chicago, has secured control of the St Louis, Kansas jDity & Colorado road, in which several Indianapolis people are interested, and which is now in process of construction, is denied by the directors. From hints dropped here at various times the impression prevails that Mr. Billings, who )>aa advanced all of the money expended in the Work so far done, was acting for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe company, and that the ultimate purpose was to provide the Atchison with K eastern terminal at St. Louis. The directors list that they are independent, although admitting that they have received many flattering offers for the control. ffrom Train-Hoy to Mechanical Engineer, On no railroad in the country is there such peastaat study to ranke improvements which will bs of benefit to railway operations as on the Pennsylvania lines, and several of the most useful devices in the way of signals have come from the brain of a young man now in PI B. Wail's offie*. who but a few years ago was a Iraiii boy. We refer to S. H. Harrington, meehauical engineer of the C., St. L. &P. lines. Mr. Harrington was born at Baltimore, Md., and jbls father died when the boy was thirteen years Old, leaving a family in poverty. It was necessary for Samuel to go to work at once, and, like many other sharp boys, he found employment as (brain boy on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. After o few months, owing to his industry and good conduct, be was given charge of the confectionery stand at Camden Station. Baltimore. Mo typi a natural taste for drawing, and it (became his most enjoyable recreation to make sketches of locomotives and cars, m principal drawing instruments being a paper-weight for making circles, gad a com*

mon table-knife for straight edge. Although his tools were poor, they were handled by nature’s true workman, and did good work, in the grasp of aptitude moved by persistence. The train-men were soon attracted to the newsboy’s drawings, and by most of them were considered wonderful achievements. One day while the boy was sketching, Mr. John L. Wilson, master of transportation, happened to see what he was doing, and became very much interested. Shortly afterward Mr. Wilson bad Harrington placed in the drawing office of the road, at Mt. Clare, and the boy was then fairly on his way to becoming a mechanical draughtsman. After he had been in the office some time, he met Mr Wilson, who ever continued his friend, and was questioned as to his progress. He answered that he was getting on well with his drawing, but he was dissatisfied at not knowing all about the articles he had to delineate on paper. He wanted to work in the shops and get practical acquaintance with all operations done therein. This wish was granted, and he went through a course in the machine shop, blacksmith shop and foundry. After that he went to work-in the drawing office again. Mr. Harrington is now working steadily upward, and is a valued assistant to Mr. E. B. Wall, who is reputed to have great discernment in selecting help.

A Railroad Attorney’s Idea. General Solicitor Fairbanks, of the Indiana, Bloomington & Western railroad, was a passenger on the Panhandle railroad Monday night, on his way to New York. When asked about the effect of the Southwestern strike on the business of the L, B. & W., by a reporter of the Pittsburg Dispatch, he said: “It hurts us somewhat, of course, as it does every railroad in the country, but" not very bad yet.. I don’t see what the outcome is going to be. A few years ago, when a railroad strike was going on, it was the fashion to sympathize with the strikers, without any inquiry into the justice or injustice of their demands. Now, it is coming to them that no busiuess is free from the boycott or strike. There is something wrong somewhere. I don’t believe that sober, thinking men are, of their own judgment, going into such wholesale strikes. The question really narrows itself down to the law of supply and demand. That will govern wages, and if labor is plentiful no organization can keep wages up. Arbitration can’t be relied on for the same reason. You might as well go to a tailor to get a suit of clothes; his price is S6O; you offer S4O, and then propose orbitration. That is about the status of the question.” Eastern Passenger Rates. Cincinnati, March 30.—The passenger department of the Central Traffic Association met here to-day and fixed the following rates: Cincinnati to New York, by Pennsylvania and Beeline, first class, $lB, second class, sl6; Ned’ York, Pennsylvania & Ohio, first class, sl7, second class, sl6. On the basis of a sl7 rate from Cincinnati, the following were fixed: St Louis to New York, first class, $23.50, second class, S2O; Louisville, first class, $20.50, second class, sl9; Indianapolis, first class, sl9, second class, $16.50. The next meeting will be held in St Louis, April 6. _ Another Cut in Transcontinental Rates. Chicago, March 30.—Transcontinental passenger rates were lowered again to-day. All roads west from here put into effect a net rate of $14.50 to San Francisco. This is a cut of $1.50 below yesterday’s figures. Miscellaneons Notes. The Manitoba is said to be surveying a line north from Pelican Rapids, crossing the Northern Pacific at Lake Park, Minn. The average reported cost of American railroads, including rolling stock, is $161,400 per mile; that of the British railroad is over $200,000 per mile. • The Belgian railroad managers very seldom change freight rates, so matter how business goes. Over one-third of their earnings were from passengers. The Southern Pacific company will build twenty first-class sleepers, with elaborate and costly trimmings, and will then operate their owu line of sleeping coaches. The Northern Pacific has been informed by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company that it will donble its passenger service on the Alaska route, commencing next May, and continuing throughout the tourist season. The steel ties on the Midland railroad cost SL76, and weigh 137 pounds. They last fifty years. There is a strong tendency in England to the use of steel ties, that weigh more and cost twice as much as the wooden tie. Laramie county, Wyomine, has voted in favor of a $400,000 subsidy for the Cheyenne & Northern. According to the law authorizing the bonds work must be commenced in ten days. The route of the proposed road is northwest from Cheyenne to a connection with the Wyoming Central, near Fort Fetter man. The Dowling Automatic Car-coupler Company, of Columbus, 0., acting according to the suggestion of the committee on tests, in Buffalo, in September, have adapted their coupler to work in connection with the Jenney coupler and made other material improvements in its construction, previous to placing it in use on the Rock Island railroad, to which road it was assigned by the committee for the six month’s practical test.

The original charter of the city of Evansville, granted more than forty years ago, provided that the tax levy for municipal purposes should not exceed three-foux-ths of 1 per cent. A subsequent amendment by the General Assembly increased the limit to one and one-fourth of a cent A perpetual injunction to prevent the collection of taxes under the increased levy was applied for by William Warren, a citizen of Evansville, but it was refused, and this decision was affirmed yesterday by the Supreme Court, which holds that a city's charter can be amended by legislative enactment * Sobovula diseases manifest themselves in the spring.

The orchestra rendered Waldteufei's waltz, *Le Rendezvous,” a “Polka Minuet”, and Haydn’s Fifth Symphony. Mr. Paul Bahr, pianist, gave “Caprice de Concert" {Hoffman), Mr. L. A. Docbez, Gounod’s cavatina “La Reine de Saba,” and Mrs. S. L. Morrison sang “If Thou Didst Lovo Me” (Denza) with exquisite tenderness and feeling.
