AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.

Tha Sals of the It. & O. Express. Baltimore, Sept 1. Tha Baltimore & Ohio express to-day passed into the haDds of the United State Express Company, and its employes were notified of the change. There will be, for the present at least, no changes in the employes, and reports will be made to the general manager as heretolore. Speaking of the sale, Mr. John K. Cowan, counsel for the Baltimore & Ohio company, said: "The statement that the Baltimore & Ohio express has Deen sold to the United States Express Company is not correct. There bas been simply a contract entered into between the two companies by which the United States express is to run the Baltimore & Ohio for thirty yearc, for which the former is to pay the latter company a certain percentage of the earninps. " He declined to say what the percentage will be. It is now very generally believed that the sale of the express is not the last of the deal? of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Special dispatches from New York render it conclusive to the tninds of many prominent business men that the telegraph system of the company will soon pass into other hands, if the negotiation is not already concluded. The impression also prevails that Mr. Garrett is anxious to dispose of the road, and the announcement of its sale at any time will create no surprise here. An Important Meeting:Chairman Blanchard. of the Central Traffic ' Association, has issued a call for a meeting at Chicago on Wednesday next, of the general managers of the roads in the association. The following important questions will come up to be acted upon. Freight department: Through export rates; all rail rates as a (Tec ted by rail competition: basis of divisions with connecting lines; rules for the issue of commodity tariffs when the vote is not unanimous; statistical information to be furnished by the association; unsettled pool accounts. Passenger department: Mileage tickets, their rates and limitations; reductions in fares for special occasions and parties; other matters of importance in both departments. Railway Ilutlding In 1837. Chicago, Sept. 1. The Railway Age to-morrow will say: "It now seems probable that the number of miles of new road constructed in the United States during 1837 will be about 12.000. This figure is the greatest on record. It has never been approached, except in 1882. when the total was 11,563 miles. Track-laying for 1887. ii D to Sept. 1, aggregates 6,462 miles. Kansas still continues far in the lead over the other States in the work of railroad construction." Local and Stare Notes. A. N. Brown has been appointed agent of the Van A ali a at Marshall Crossing. It is twenty-three years since a passenger bas been killed on the Panhandle line between Indianapolis and Columbus. Belt road engines in the month of August handled 3.804 car-loads of live stock against 2,203 in the corresponding month last year. John B. Wrenn, well-known In Indianapolis railroad circles, has been appointed general passenger and freight agent of tho Cumberland route. S. C. Kesinger, who has been acting agent of the I., D. & S. and the C. H. & I., at their South Illinois-street office for a few days, has been ap- , pointed permanently, vice L. W. Cole resigned. The L., N. A. & C. road earned in the third week of August $44,641; increase over earnings in the corresponaing week of 18SU. $3,474; increase in earnings since the 1st of January, $276,160. General Manager Beach, of the Bee-line, went to Springfield. I1L, yesterday, to apoear before the Railroad Commission of that State to argue with others against a further reduction of freight rates. The Railroad Men's Saving and Loan Association held its first regular meeting on Wednesday night, and 323 shares were readily taken. The organization promises to be an exceedingly prosperous one. The six monster f eight locomotives which the Bee-line recently received from the Brooks locomotive works are doing excellent service. They haul from thirty-five to forty cars over any grade on this system. The friends of O. P. McCrty, in this city, will be glad to know that although the office of assistant general ticket agent on the Union Pacific bas been abolished he is to be retained in the employ of the company. The Erie people give notice that the $"0-per-1,000 mile tickets are to be withdrawn on the N. Y., P. & O. division. Their use in local travel has reached such a point tha it seriously impairs the passenger earnings. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois, in it a fiscal year ending June 30, earned gross. $1,934,059.59. Its net earnings were $370,055.93. With this prosperity the company bas increased its July dividends from 2J per cent, to 5 J percent. The through Pullman coach placed ou the Vandalia and the Pennsylvania lines, to run between St. Louis and Washington, D. C, a few months ago, has become a very popular coach and pays fully as handsomely as the New York Sleeping coaches. The Journal was in error in stating, recently, that watchmen were not employed to guard the bridges burned last month on the C, II, & I. Watchmen were employed, and rendered valuable service in stopping trains that would otherwise have been wrecked. . President McKeen, of the Vandalia, has ordered that the men who were discharged from the employ of the company during the reign of Jhe C. II. & D. people be reinstated, and that he pay of employes which was reduced be restored to the old-time figures. The belief prevails that the one-cent-per-mile rate to the Grand Army posts and half -fare to various conventions, good for sixty days, will re sult in demoralizing passenger rates tee remainder of the year. The ticket scalpers are feeling good over the outlook. Harry Miller, engineer of the maintenance of way on the Chicago, St. Louis & Pacific (Indianapolis division), bas commenced in earnest the replacing of all wood and iron structures in the road-bed with Btones arches, copying after fhe Pennsylvania road proper. A strong pressure is being brought upon the Pennsylvania company to induce them to haul a sleeping coach on train No. 7 west-bonnd. This is the fast mail and makes the run between New York city and Indianapolis five hours quicker than the express trains now do. The monthly statement of Chief Clerk Broadbelt, of the Union Railway Company, shows that during the month of August there arrived and departed at the Union Dopot 3.211 regular and 55 special trains, making a total of 3,463 trains. In this statement is included the camp-meeting trains. Superintendent Mansfield, of the Indianapolis & Vincennes road, received a telegrem yesterday stating that M. E. Ferguson died on Wednesday night at Haley, I. T. Mr. Ferguson was formerly agent of the L. & V. at MooresviUe, but has recently been in the employ of the Union Pacific. The Peoria. Decatur & Evansville seems to be tinder a cloud, in that its earnings are not showing up favorably with those of the corresponding period in 1886. It should be borne in mind, however, that the earnings last year in August were the largest in the history of the road, it being specially favored in business. The general officers of the Lake Erie & Western road expect to transfer their headquarters from Bioominfi'ton to Indianapolis the 15th of next month. Work on their new building on East Washington street is progressing finely, the walls being already ud to the second story. The building is to be three stories high. In the month of Angnst there were transferred over the Helt road 53.720 cars, against 37.806 in August, lssr,, 43,627 in 1S85. 36, ISC in 18S4. 31,574 in 1883 and 27.788 in 1S32. From the above statement it will be seen ' that nearly double as many cars were transferred over the Belt road this year as there were in 1S32. J. A. Hughston. Eastern traveling freight agent of the Union Pacific, is in the city prospecting for business. He oses as an argument why the Union Pacific should receive a liberal share of the shipments to Western points, the fact that 1 last year its management disbursed $126,000 in Indianapolis for new cars and railway supplies. The headquarters of E. W. Timmony. assistant general superintendent of the Woodruff Sleeping-car Company, have been changed from Indianapolis to Columbus. In the five years that Mr. Timmony bas been located at Indianapolis be bas made many warm fi lends, who Will regret that he is to be transferred to that point. General Agent Brecount, of the L., N.. A. & C. has been footing up the quantity ot Bedford itone the L., N. A. & C. hauled for the new JState-houee, and finds that it was 850,000 cubic feet Taking the usual rule for loading fiat cars, fifteen tons each, the company shipped in here some eight thousand car loads of stone from these quarries. The second-mortgage bondholders of the L. E. & St. L.. (Air-line) held a meeting in New Albany on Wednesday. A majority of the bondholders and stockholders were represented. The Agreement of indorsement by the first-mort-rage bondholders and the directors of the Airline of the bonds of tho liuntinglurg, Tell Citj

& Cannelton branch of the Air-line was unanimously ratified, as well as the contract made with Horace Scott & Co., for the building of the road. This insures the earliest possible completion of the Huntingburg, Tell City & Cannelton road. The Vandalia Company will expend a considerable sum of money in fitting up with appropriate decorations the trains which are to haul the members of the Grand Army of the Repub- . lie to St. Louis on the 2Sth of this month. The national committee of the organization come from Chicago to St. Louis over the Illinois Central and the Vandalia. C. E. Henderson, general manager and receiver of the I., B. & W.. has just returned from a trip over the Peoria division, and he reports a handsome improvement in the prospect for the corn crop as a result of the recent rains. He also made a trip over the Chicago & Ohio River road, and there a marked improvement is also noticeable within the last two weeks.

A large number of claims for damages from fire along the line of the C, St. L. &r P. road have been presented within the last six weeks. In each case the company will take up, as a line of defense, that their engines are equipped with the best, spark-arrester, and that they will pay no damages unless the fire catches on their right-of-way and then extends to adjoining property. The annual meeting of the National Switchmens Association, which convenes here on the 10th of this month, is to be one of the most important meetings the association has ever held. Several days will be required to revise the bylaws and constitution. Among other things, it is proposed to make the insurance, in case of death, $1,000 instead of $600, the present benefit, and in case a member is disabled for life he is to draw a like amount. Fresident Ingalls, of the C, I.. St. L. & C. promises that should the business of the road continue as good for the next few months as it has been for some months past, the new shops will be built at Indianapolis next year. He says every time he visits Indianapolis he is more impressed with the fact that it is a promising city, and be will show a willingness to help it along by building shops here, which will be a credit to the road and a valuable acquisition to the business interests of the city. One of the high officials of the Delaware, Lackawana & Western road says that it was quite a disappointment to that company that it did not secure control of the Nickel-plate road when sold. If they had the Lackawana company would have built a double track road from Buffalo to Chicago, making it one of the best roads crossing Ohio and Indiana. This company now have a double track between Buffalo and New York city that cannot be excelled, and claim that between those points they can make the run two hours quicker than either of their competitors. There is some complaint that the Pennsylvania lines are not giving proper attention to their Southwestern passenger business. It is stated that when one of their through trains leaves New Yortc if there are but a half dozen persons for Chicago who cannot be aecomruadated with berths in the cars already on the train another sleeping coach is added to accommadnte them, while it is difficult under any circumstances to induce this line to put on an extra coach for Indiananapolis and St. Louis business. On Tuesday last thirteen passengers, who were so unfortunate as to have limited tickets on train No. 1 west, were obliged to ride iD a day coach through as far as Indianapolis or St. Louis. Those who ought to understand the situation state that were the Southwestern lines to get the attention that the Chicago lines under the Pennsylvania Company's control do, the business could be largely increased. With the pretent arrangements passengers for St. Louis or Kansas City, as in this case, who wish to get on at points west of New i.ork have not the least show. General and Miscellaneous. Peter Rockwell has been appointed general road-master of the Missouri Pacific, succeeding W. McLeod, resigned. The suburban travel of the Boston roads exceeds in volume that of the roads of the cities of New York, Chicago and St Louis combined. The prospects of the completion of the Sooth Penn road are not particularly dazzling. The stock of the concern consists chiefly of a right of way and an injunction. Twelve car-loads of hogs arrived in the City of Mexico recently from Kausas City, via the Central railway, the swine standing the jefurney well, being landed in good condition. The Baltimore & Ohio road is still using the straight air-brake, which doubtless accounts for the frequent accidents on that road from the failure of the air-brake when called upon. The Chicago, Burlington & Qnincv and Chicago, Burlington As Northern directory committee have concluded an arrangement for a system of arbitration on all questions of rates and business. In Eastern railroad circles the belief prevails that Vice-president Potter, of the Union Pacific, is making a mistake in slaughtering the old railroad officials so freely as he has been doing the last thirty days. The Chicago & Northwestern has let a contract for the building of a thirty-five mile extension from Ishpemiug, Mich., to Republic and Michigamme, and work will be begun at once, employing 1,000 men. The line is to be finished Nov. 1. Locomotive builders and manufacturers of railroad supplies are looking for a large demand for their work with the development of railroads in China. The Chinese, it is stated favor dealing with manufacturers of this country rather than with European manufacturers. At the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Chicago fc Atlantic railroad, held in Huntington yesterday, the following board of directors wore elected: James . H. Benedict, H. J. Jewett. C. L. Atterbury, Andrew W. Kent, of New York: C. C. Waite, of Cincinnati; Gen. J. S. Robinson and Thomas Espy, of Kenton, O.: Geo. J. Bippus, of Huntington; J. S. Slick, of Rochester. The Massachusetts Railroad Commissioners, in view of tbe many recent failures of air-brakes to work, have issued a circular letter to railroads . in that State, calling attention to the law which requires railroad companies to "cause to be stationed on every passenger train, trusty and skillful brakemen, equal in number at least to one for every two cars in the train, and one such brakeman upon the last car of every freight train, which car must always be equipped with a good and sufficient brake."
