AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal and Local General Manager Mcßae, of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, is expected in the city to-day. George H. Schultz has been appointed general agent of the freight department of the Chicago, Burliueton & Northern road, and H. T. Keenan live stock agent. Unless grossly misrepresented, the Wabash is not maintaining either passenger or freight rates at any point they touch in as honorable a manner as during the first six months of the year. R. D. Hughes, superintendent of the Ohio division of the American Express Company, was In the city yesterday, in conference with E. W. Sloano, superintendent of the Indiaua division. Indianapolis agents have been notified that the St. Louis <fe San Francisco road, ’Frisco line, being completed to Geuda Springs. South Haven and Caldwell, Kan., it now ready to receive business for those points. M. E. Ingalls, president of the C., 1.. St. L. & C, who is still East on his summer vacation, left Watch Hill for the White mountains yesterday, where he will remain until the early part of next Week, when he will start homeward. The L, B. & W. is 13 per cent, ahead of its allotment in the east-bound pool, and the C., St. L. &P. 4 per cent, ahead. The Bee-line and the C., 11. & I. are behind in their per cents., while the Wabash is just earning its per cent. A Pennsylvania railroad official is quoted as saving: “The Baltimore & Ohio is heeinmng a general competition with us at all points. If a fight must come, we are in an unusually good position, because our Western lines are doing well this year.” An engineer, F. C. Colburn, of Springfield, Mass., who had been on the Boston & Albany road for over thirty years, was so overcome by excitement while trying to drive away boys who were foraging among fruit trees on his premises that he dropped dead. John R Elder, president of the Shell Beach road, yesterday received notice that the steel rails with which to exteud the road thirty-eight and a half miles had bepn purchased in Europe, and would bo immediately shipped to New Orleans. The price paid is not stated. It is stated that the officers of the Missouri Pacific are employing detectives to carc'n all strikers who were implicated in the destruction of property during the last strike. A eood many of the active men in the strike have already left, and others are being frightened out The* new railroad track laid during the past two months exceeds that of the previous six. The total last year was 3,131 miles, and there has been laid already this year 3,475 miles. The work of the last four months bids fair to exceed in amount that of any similar period of any year. It is stated that Charles Finney, who a few weeks ago left the city to go to Kansas Citv to represent the White line, will be transferred to Indianapolis to represent the line here, as Mr. Peck, who succeeded Edward Cost, is to go back into the passenger department as local ticket agent. H. R. Duval, receiver and general manager of the Florida Railway ana Navigation Company, asks for bids for building the extension of this company’s southern division, from the Little Withlacoochee to Plant City, Fla., on the South Florida road, and the contracts will probably be awarded early in the present month. It is said that Mr. Vanderbilt.—that is, the old Commodore, grandfather of the present race—is the only one who successfully manipulated corners, and he did so because he desired to own the properties, and had the money to pav for the whole business. If he had attempted to sell out after he had made the “bears” cover, there would have been almost no market for the securities. Amended articles of incorporation of the Burlington, Lafayette & Western railway, increasing the capital stock SIO,OOO for each mile, and naming the following officers and directors, were filed with the Secretary of State yesterday: President, G. B. Henderson; secretary, Carl C. Winter; directors, Geo. W. Torrence, Carl C. Win ter, Thos. J. Crapp, Ezra Trangle and David Hito. It is stated that there are forty-five different kinds of drawbars in use on the cars of this country, varying from sixteen inches to four feet in length. The stock of drawbars which each of the principal roads has to keep on hand for repairs to foreign cars is, in some cases, startlingly large. Is not the adoption of a standard length of drawbar a question important enough for the convention of tho Master Carbuilders’ Association? In this country the government is asked to take action to bring about lower rates, while the Russian government has intervened to prevent certain railroads from making rates too low. The statement of the case we find is that some of the greater companies sometimes “slaughtered the rates” in order to compete with shorter routes to the seaboard and divert traffic from them, though this policy has brought them to the border of destruction. The freight agents have completed their work, aud Terre Haute now has a tarriff sheet. Heretofore agents have had a hap-hazzard way of naming rates. Now they are based on mileage as at Indianapolis, St. Louis or Chicago, which gives that commercial center more importance as a shipping point. Ibis, as well, means a better maintenance of east-bound rates at Terre Haute, which has borne the reputatiou of being a bad rate cutting railroad center. The Whitewater Valley road seems to he tinder a cloud. One of the bridges is gone and only a portion of the road is operated, and the property seems to be steadily decreasing in value. The belief prevails that at no distant day the road north of Connersville will be abandoned. The Fort Wayne, Louisville & Cincinnati is turning the bulk of its business on to the Rushville branch of the C. f 1., St. L. & C.; especially is travel taking that route to Cincinnati and Louisville. Work on the C., St. L. & P. branch line is being pushed. This branch leaves the main line at Lansing, 111., twenty-seven miles from Chicago, and runs northwest to South Chioaeo, where it connects with tho Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago road. This line is intended to give this road a short connection with the Fort Wayne road and a direct line to the Union Depot in Chicago. It will a’.so reach some large manufacturing establishments, including the United Btates Rolling Stock Company’s shops at Hegevnsch. Engine 611, on the J., M. & I. rcsd, made another big run yesterday. The afternoon express should leave the Union Depot at 3:50 p. m., but did not get off until 4:40 p. m. Engine 611 hauled this train of five cars into the depot at Louisville, at 7:15 p. M. , making the run of 110 miles in two hours and thirty-five minutes. Five stops were made at stations and railroad cross ines. The records will show that faster runs have been made on the J., M. & I. road than have been made on other roads in this country, and the one here mentioned would be difficult to much excel. At the annual meetiug in June, Eugene Zimmerman, who was elected president of tho Cincinnati. Hamilton & Indianapolis Railroad Company, remarked that he could see no good reason Why the C. H. & 1., or this division of the C.. H. Si D. system, should not show a surplus of SIOO, - §OO, rather than a deficit of that amount. It *ow looks as though his remark might be verified in part, as, should the road continue to do as well the remaining part of the fiscal year as in the first months of it, certainly no delict will be shown, aDd possibly a little surplus above fixed charges and operating expenses may bo realized. It is amusing sometimes to see the claims made by the advocates of certain devices as to the saving made through their use. A story is told of a mechanic who put in a boiler which saved 40 percent of the fuel, grates which saved 20, a valve motion which saved 30 more, and a variable exhaust saving 20, thus leaving him a clear net gain of 10 per cent, which could be ap plied to other purposes than running tho engine. The Master Mechanic says: “Asa rule we find that no subject connected with locomotive performance seems less understood than that of the 'use or abuse of fuel, and figures submitted as to losses or savings are apt to be very wild. ” The difficult place in securing the ground on (Which the new Union Depot is to be erected to have been passed. There are now but gno parties who own ground which the Union Jtsilway Company must have that are giving hem any trouble. Within the last three weeks hose property-holders who had shown a disposition to t?e troublesome have wheeled into |iue iu a very honorable manner aud are now do-

ing all in their power to expedite matters, and the tenants as well, General Manager Malott says, are behaving verv handsomely in the way pr showing willingness to vacate the rooms they occupy as speedily as possible. The action taken by the City Council on Monday night did much toward hastouiug the beginning of the improvement. John Lewis has been appointed detective of the Union Railway Company, vice George Wiles, deceased. Mr. Lewis has taken hold of this matter of men and boys jumping on to trains when in motion Yesterday morning one boy was brought before the Mayor and fined, and last evening two more who jumped on to trains when moving were arrested, and will be brought before the Mayor this morning. The Union Railway Company are determined to break up this reckless practice which so frequently results in the loss of life or limbs. Doing a Good Work, Joseph Sanger, secretary and treasurer of the Yardmasters’ Mutual Benefit Association, has issued a circular to the yardmasters of the United States, setting forth the advantages a membership in this association gives a yArdmaster, in the hope that those who contemplate connecting themselves with any beneficial organization or taking policies in life insurance companies will give this association their most favorable consideration. Unquestionably the association is sound, honorably and economically managed, and commends itself to all those who are subject toHhe daily risk of this branch of service, and who wish to make future provisions for their families on a reasonable basis. Secretary Sanger, in the circular, presents a brief statement of the numerical and financial growth of the association during the little more than eleven years which it has been in existence. Starting with thirty-four members, it had, at the expiration of the first two months, when its first fiscal year began. 122 members. He etates “at the end of the first fiscal year, April 30, 1883, we had acquired a membership of 703, while at the expiration of the eleventh fiscal year the membership had increased to 1,452. the association more than doubling its membership within the last three years. Since April 30. 1886, over ninety new members have been added, thus giving us, at the present time, considerably over fifteen hundred members. The first death benefit paid by the association amounted only to the sum of $137, raised by a per capita assessment of $1 on 137 members. Since that time the death benefits have been steadily increasing, year by year, until at the annual meeting, two years ago, the sum to be paid in all cases of death or total disability was fixed at SI,OOO The above sum is liable to be increased at any annual meeting, at the will of a majority of the delegates. During the last fiscal year we have had fifteen deaths and one case of total disability out of a membership of fourteen hundred, for which the sum of $16,000 was paid out in benefits, at an actual cost of sl2 per member per annum, or an average cost of $1 per month. At riresent, an assessment of $1 per member, in case of death or disability, leaves a surplus of over SSOO, which is credited to the next assessment, two assessments thereby payine three death or disability benefits. Since our organization we have bad fifty-seven deaths and four cases of totul disability, for which the sum of $37,963 has been paid out in benefits. The actual average cost per month per member, since the association was organized, has been fifty-one cents.”

Swelling the Earnings of the Parent Road. The Pennsylvania’s Western lines seem to be helping to swell the earnings of this great system wonderfully this year. A statement of the earnings of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St. Louis railway has been made for July, showing the great increase of 33 per cent in gross earnings and the enormous one of 64J in net. The Railroad Gazette says: This is the only monthly report of earnings and expenses that we have over seen from any of the numerous Western lines controlled by the Pennsylvania railroad, and it is very desirable that such reports should be made regularly. The monthly statement of the amount the net earnings have exceeded or fallen short of the liabilities,, which is given for the whole Pennsylvania Western system, has great value, hut not as much as a full statment of the earnings and expenses. Such reports are nowhere more needed than in this territory north of the Ohio, where none of the railroads with largest traffic, like the Michigan Central, the Lake Shore, the Fort Wayne and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St. Louis, make ar;y monthly reports. The Grand Rapids & Indiana also reports for July, contrary to its custom, showing a gain of 15 per cent, in gross and 65 per cent, in net earnings. Disposed to Act Honorably. The Wabash people show a disposition to act honorably regarding their east-bound business out of Chicago. The official record of the meeting held in Chicago on Sept 2, of the committee of the Central Traffic Association was sent East Monday. This shows that the representative of the Wabash road promised that the statistics of business carried east from Hannibal and Quincy would be presented at an adjourned meeting to be held here Thursday, provided that the Chicago roads also have their statistics for the years 1883. 1884 and 1885 ready for comparison. The Wabash representative stated, further, that he did not anticipate any differences of opinion in preparing the division of business, in securing its admission into the pool, and that he wouid agree to the division or to an arbitration. Indianapolis Steel Plant. The Pittsburg Dispatch of Monday, says: “D. R. Lean, of this city, has just closed a contract with the Indianapolis Rolling-mill Company for a complete Siemens-Martin steel plant of the most modern style, with necessary machinery, cranes, buildings, smelting and heating furnaces. The cranes are to be of the Wellman type, made by the Morgan Engineering Company, of Alliance, O. The total contract is to be completed ready to make steel within one hundred days. General Manaeer Morgan states that the Indianapolis roads have promised to encourage the Rolling-mill Company by purchasing their earliest production of rails. A Big Contract. A contract has just been signed by the Westinghouse Air-brake Company to equip 1,000 freight cars of the Colorado Midland with its system of air-brakes. This is the first result of the great test at Burlington, la , which has just ended. The order will be filled at once and placed on the cars. The test which has just been ended was made at the request of the Master Car-builders’ Association. Cut on JEast-Bouucl Freight Rates. San Francisco, Sept 7.—The Pacific coast freight agents of the transcontinental lines have announced a reduction of rates for east-bound freight of 50 per cent, with a minimum of 50 cents per 100 pounds to Chicago and St Louis. This action was taken owing to the fierce opposition being waged by the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and Canadian Pacific railway. The reduced rates have been guaranteed up to next Saturday. Sale of the Havana, Rantoul & Western. Springfield, 111, Sept. 7.—The Havana, Rantoul & Western railway was sold to-day, by order of the United States Court for $500,000. It was purchased by A. J. Thomas, as trustee for the bondholders. It was sold on a judgment in favor of the Central Trust Company, of New York. Prosecution of Prison Director Shoemaker. Attorney-general Hord’s attention has been directed to Prison Director Shoemaker’s violation of law in selling supplies to the institution, but he says that the case should properly be taken up by the prosecuting attorney in the judicial district in which the offense was committed. “Long, long be my heart with such memories filled,” he remarked, as he concluded the painful account of his suffering by adding, with a smile of ineffable delight, 4 ‘ ’Twa* Salvation Oil that did the work of cure, and it eoet me only a quar-
