AFFAIRS OF Tlltt RAILWAYS.

Th KotdmMtfri' ConTcntlon. Cleveland, O., Oct. 11 The Ro&d masters' Conveotioo convened at the usual hoar Mthis taoroiofr, and after roll-call several additions were made to the membership. The regular order of business was then resumed, and the fourth question on the list, standard guard rails ' for bridges and re-railing safety frogs at bridges, was given to the meeting for discussion, through a report of the committee. John Doyle, ebairman, considered the subject the most important before the convention. A report recommending the Latimer safely railguard was adopted, with an amendment recommending the use of guard rails the entire length of bridtres. O. R. Geffrey, chairman of the standard track joint committee, reported in favor cf double anele bar joint. The afternoon was devoted to sight seeing. The regular business of the association was concluded in an eveniug session. The committee on necrology reported the dratb of two members daring the year David Coleman, of Tope k a. Kan., and Thomas Adamson, of Lawrenceburg. Ind. The report on standard hand-ear was reconsidered and referred back to the committee with instructions to report at the next meeting. Washington was selected as tn place and and Sept II as the date for holding the next annual meeting. The following officers were elected for the ensuing yean President, J. W. Craig of the C & S.. Charlston. S. C; first vice-president. J. Burnett, of the Joliet steel works, Joliet, II!.: see ond vice-president. James Sloan, C. & E. I., Danville. III.; secretary and treasurer. H. W. Reed, of the S.. F. & W. railway, Waycross, Ga.; members of the executive committee, C H. Cornell, C, M. & St. P. railroad. Dubuqoe. Ia., and Richard Caff rey, Lehigh Valley railroad,' White Haven, Pa. Local and 8tavte Notes. " The C. II. & I. company has just completed a eosy, roomy depot at Palestine, Ind. N. II. Foster, agent of the I , B. & W. at Trov, O.. bas resigned to take the agency of the G, V. & C. road at Cairo, 111. There is not a Western road of importance which does not now have a representative of its freight department located in Pittsburg. The Indianapolis & Vincennes road now bas pearly 500 coal cars in service. The company three vears ago owned but thirty-five coal cars. Within the last thirty days some fifty carloads of Irish potatoes have been shipped to this market from points on the Minnesota & Northwestern road. The flagmen at nine of the principal street erossings on the Union tracks now remain on duty until 9 p. M. Their pay has been increased twenty cents per day. All the road engines on the old L, P. & C. have been renumbered and lettered Lake Erie & Western, and the freight and passenger ears are now being renumbered and relettered. M. E. Iogalls, president of the C, I., St. L. & C., proposes to operate the road on 55 percent, vf the gross earnings this year. The last fiscal year it was operated on 59. 63 per cent. The Wabash proper bas this season distributed 10.000 car loads of gravel ballast on ,the road west of Danville, and has done a good deal in the way of ballasting with stone. Ttte Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City road last Tuesday ran its first stock train, tnrning over seventeen car loads of cattle to the Nickelplate at Continental, the crossing of the two roads. , t The Yandaltais fittine tjp in their shops two yery flue parlor cars which are to be put on to run between Indianapolis and St Louis. The chair is of a new pattern, and they cost $10 per chair. A movement is on foot looking for the building of a Belt road at Toledo. Within a few days Toledo parties are to be in Indianapolis to examine our Belt road and the methods of operating it Robert Garrett, of the Baltimore & Ohio road, when he travels is attended with . tnree servants. Cornelius Vanderbilt, of the New York Central, has but one, while Jay Gould apparently does not require any. The C, II. & D. company has purchased two 45-ton passenger engines, to be placed in service on the C, II. & L road hauling their heavy through passenger trains. It is difficult to make the time with their present light engines. The work of widening the track of the West Lebanon & Leroy division of the Illinois Central road, between Rantoul and Leroy, will begin next Monday. When this improvement is made the Illinois Central will have no narrowgauge road in its system. Four more locomotives will be added to the power of the Indianapolis & Vincennes road next week. Fve years ago four engines did the work on this road, now thirteen are not suffilient to handle the business, so much has it increased the last three years. The Bee-line Gazette for Oetober is out.and is an unusually bright and entertaining number. The general passenger agent publishes monthly Knic ten thousand of the Gazette; which, beside Vfing a cood advertising medium contain much Interesting reading matter. Indianians who, for forty years or more, owned stock of the Baltimore & Ohio road and told it a 'iw months ago for $150 a share, did wisely, as It is now selling at ? 105 and will go below par, linely, now that the road for the first time in its history passes a dividend. It is quite evident that the Toledo, St Louis & Kansas City management does not propose to widen the gauge of the road west of Fran a fort Until next spring. They are putting in extensive transfer tracks at that point, and making other improvements of such a character. A larger tonnage of freight is handled at Pittsburg and its immediate suburbs annually, than at any other commercial center in the worid. There are points where a larger revenue. New York for instance, is derived from the tonnnge bandied, but it is on a different class of freight The freight handled at Pittsburg is largely iron and coal. The Pennsylvania Company inspection party yesterday inspected the J.. M. & I., and expressed themselves as greatly pleased with the physical condition of the road. The party left last evening for Chicago. E. W. McKenna and several other officials of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Panl accompany the Pennsylvania officials on their inspection trip. J. II. McCampbell. who has been on the J., M. & I road for thirty-three years, a large portion of the time being secretary and treasurer of the com pan v. bnt more recently president of one of . the Louisville banks, was in the city, yesterday, visiting old-time friends, and last evening, in eompanv with William Jackson, treasurer of the Union Railway Company, left for Wabash, Ind. The fact that the C. I., St. L. & C. shows a slight decrease in earnings the first week of October, as compared with the corresponding period in 18SG, should not be taken as an unfavorable omen. The road carried this year a larger tonnage than last, but the local business was carried at lower rates, the decrease in earnings being entirely in this feature of their business. The merchants are reaping the benefit of ihe interstate law. Complaint is made that freights on the Lake Erie & Western road are delayed ai a resnlt of the practice of too much economy. On some livisions of the road. Local freight trains are run only every other day and it sometimes takes ns long to get freight from Indianapolis, Cleveland or Toledo to a point on the Western division of that road as to get freight from New York to Indianapolis. Such economy is damaging to the business of the road. There is a general desire among railroad men that the cause of the recent fatal disaster on the Chicago & Atlantic road should be ferreted out and the party through whose neglect or carelessness the accident was caused should be punished. That it was a fogy night is not any excuse, as the train was provided with torpedoes and the trackmen, switchmen and signal tenders as weli. Why were not the torpedoes used. It is intended that they should be on just such occasions. The Vanderbilt party. withChanncey Deoew at their head, reached Indianapolis yesterday afternoon, making a fine run over the Indianapolis & St Louis road, and after a five minutes' tarry, left for Cincinnati over the C, I., St. L. & C. road. The party looked over the improvements the Union Railway Company is making and expressed themselves as being surprised at the imposing and substantial character of the imrrovetnents. President Denw said that the plirty were pleased to find the Western properties they are interested in in such excellent condition, the I. & St. L. road comparing favorablv with the best roads East or West. J. D. Layng, president, and Garlord Beach, general manager of the Bee line, arcompanv the party in their inspection of the Bee-line system They travel on a train of four cars, one a dining room car and two private cars. Under the heading, "Tlis Last Run," the Beeline Gazette for October, contains this interesting reminiscence: "Michael Reddington, the engineer wbo recently met with an accident which not only cost him his own life, but that of his son also, was one of the oldest and most faithful of bis following on the I. & St. L. Ry. Whenever a special run was to be made, which required an A No 1 man, he was the one to be always found in the cab. We recollect a season or two ago Colonel Smith wanted to make fast time with an excursion into St Loms. lie wired the superintendent, asking that it be made

within a specified limit, but received the reply that it eonld not be aone. Not content with

this, be sent a reply insisting upon it, and calling attention to the fact that the time asked for was made noon a similar occasion the previous iMann. ! admit that.' came baclc worrt from Superintendent Bnrrowa. 'but we had Mike Red dington at toe ID rot lie. wnica we wubui iiavo this trip.'" General and Miscellaneous. The Texas Pacific road will be sold at fore closure sale Nov. 8. The enormous Westine-house incandescent plant at the Baldwin locomotive-works is nearing completion. It consists of Z, 00 lights. The Uarrisbure car-works are building several hundred cars for the Standard Oil Company, the tanks on which will carry 25 per eent more oil than those now in use. The Chicago & Northwestern paid out in dividends lat year abont $3,400,000, and bad a surplus of $2,000,000. Tbat margin is wide enough to cover a few possible losses. The C. B. & Q. has already built, this year. 540 miles of new track and bad 463 additional miles graded, making a total of 1.003 miles the company will open for business this year. The Brooks locomotive-works now employ 900 men and are extending their works to give employment to 1,500. The type of engine they build is highly approved of by the roads which have their engines in service. The Los Angeles. Santa Anna & San Diego road is to be ready for trains to run oveJ it by the 15th of November. This is the A.. T. & . F. branch, which parallels the Southern Pacific between Santa Anna and Los Angeles. The Railway Commissioner of Ohio has set the example of appointing an expert to examine and supervise the tests of brakes. Ihe oppor tunity of 8cnring in this way a semi-indorse ment of a certain brake will hardly be neg lected. The aggregate new railroad mileage np to Oct 1 this year is 5.779 miles, against 3.788 for the corresponding period last year. With the ex ception of 1882 this years' record is the largest. in the history of the railroad system in the United fetates. They are working on the Tampieo division of the Mexican Central, but the contractor is uotnered for want of men. It is doubtful if the division is open beforo July, 1889, although the company hopes to have it rnnning by March of the same year. The Courier-Journal finds the fault tbat American railroads are compelled to spend the money for their rails, cars, etc, in this country. because of the tax levied on foreign rails. But if the railways sent their money abroad where would they get their business of transporting coal and iron? If the industries of America must support the American railroads should not toe roads support tne industries! TOE BANKERS' CONVENTION. Resolntions Favoring: Extingnishmflnt of the Public Debt The Nominations Made. Pittsburg, Oct 13. It was nearly 11 o'clock when the convention of the American Bankers' Association was called to order this morning by President Murray. There was a noticeable in crease in the attendance, a large number of delegates having arrived since the close of yes terday's session. After the usual opening exer cises the following resolutions were offered and referred to the execntiye council. By Judge Ewine. of Pennsylvania: Resolved, .That we favor a rapid extinguishment of the pnbha debt and therefore recommend the con tinued purchase by the Secretary of the Tie;unry of the outstanding government bonds. Ye consider a reduction of the revenues wholly unnecessary, inex pedient and tinwise. Let tlie surplus be promptly and constantly applied to tbe liquidation of the debt: and let the action of the treasury in the work of buying the bonds be fnrther rcsrnlated. systematized and con trolled by additional legislation. By W. P. St John, of New York: Resolved, That the existence of the National banks is not dependent upon the national debt. By Mr. Carter, of Nebraska: rtesoivea, mat tne executive council be and is hereby instructed to prepare a bill etnbodyine such amendments to the national banking act as may seem most desirable and expedient, and transmit a copy tnereoi to eacn rnemnnrot tnis association, with a letter invitinir criticisms for consideration by said executive council, after which the bills shall again be brought before fa d council for consideration and final adoption: it shall then be presented to Contrress. and a copy of the same mailed to each member of this association, with a request to use their perf oual influence with the members of Ooneress and Uii'ted Ftates S"nat rs from their respective States to secure tavorable action. ' Resolved. Tbat the executive eonncil be and is herebv instructed to examine the bankine legislation of each State and Territory, and endeavor, tbrouch tho local members of this association, to secure uni form bank legislation throughout the countrv. Resolved. That the executive council be and is hereby authorized to employ such assistants as may be necessary to secure in a legitimate manner the objects contemplated in the previous resolutions, and are hereby empowered to levy from time to time 'npon the members of this association assessments sufficient to meet the expenses necessarily incurred in carrying out these instructions. Tbe nominating committee then presented the following: President, Logan C. Murray, of New York; first vice-president, Charles Parsons, St. Louis. Executive Council Chairman. John Jay Knox, of New York; Gen. P. Cox, of New York: Lyman J. Gsee. Chicapo. Daniel Annan. Cumberland. Md ; James H. Bouve. Boston; W. G. Deshler. Columbus. O. ; E. B. Jordan, Syracnse, N. Y.; J. W. Liockwood, Ifichmond, Va.; Augnstus H. Moss, Sandnskv, O.; M. H. Michael, Philadel phia; W. T. Nash. New York: J. J. P. Odell, Chicago; v. 11. Khawan. Philadelphia; Hoel H. Camp, Milwaukee; Logan II. Roots, Little Kock. Ark ; J. T. Smith Baltimore. Md.: S. K. Sneed, Henderson. Kr.; W. E. Sehmertz, Pittsburg: Edmund Tyler, Boston: A: W. Wyman, Omaha; W. P. bt. John. New York. The routine business havlne been disposed of, papers were read by C P. Williams, of Albany; Elliott F. Shepherd, of New York; Henry M. Knox, of Minnesota; II. B. Wilson, of Ohio, and Beriah Wilkins, of Ohio. A resolution offered by Mr. Taylor, of Boston, in support of the propositions made by Mr. Knox, recommending the passage of a bill for the refunding of four per cents, into twn-and-a half per cents, caused a spirited discussion anout tne only one during toe session. It was finally tabled. The executive council presented a resolution favoring the Washington centennial, which was adopted. The report on silver, which had been opposed early in tbe session and withdrawn, was aeain presented. Tbe committee said: "The Ameri can Bankers' Association has always taken the rround that both silver and cold are reauired as the money of tbe world, but tbat a'n inter national agreement on the part of a majority of cniet commercial nations of the world can prac tically settle the question of tbe relative value oi gold atid silver when coined. Though several international conferences have been heid. no conclusion has as yet been reached." The report refers to the action taken by foreien powers, and concludes with the recommendation that the coinaee of silver dollars by the United States under the act of Congress of February 1887, be suspended until the points at issue as to the silver question be settled by international agreement. The report an presented was adopted and tbe convention adjourned finally. In the afternoon tbe delegates and other guests participated in a river excursion, by which they had an opportunity of seeing the Davis Island dam, constructed by tbe government, as well as all the immense manufacturing establishments, including the Edgar Thompson works,, located on the banks of the rivers. Tomorrow an excursion by rail to other leading interests will be made; also to the natural cas fields within twenty five miles of tbe city. Thus far the session bas been one of the most enjoyable and interesting ever held bv the association, and the visitine bankers are loud in their praises over the manner in which they have been entertained. California and the Interstate Iaw. Chicago, Oct. 13. H. DeYonne, proprietor of the San Francisco Chronicle, in an interview with a Journal reporter this evening, in speakin? of the effects of the passage of the interstate commerce bill on tbe business interests of the Pacific slope, said: "The people were and are still strongly in favor of tbe interstate bill. Of course, the railroads attempted to make it as odious as possible by heavy increases in freight and passenger charges, but the laws of trade soon regulated that, for the prices they put npon cur products were simply prohibitory, and there was no shipping of any kind until the railroads came back to fair prices, and as a natural result of their attempt to increase freight rates we received the benefit we expected to the fostering of home manufactories. One of tbe results of tbe bill has been to force our merchant into patronizing home manufactories, and our nail-works, type factories, paper mills, woolen mills, class-work", and other manufactures have been running on full time, with large contract ahead." Thk pain and misery suffered by those who are afflicted with dyspepsia are indescribable. Tbe relief which is given by Hood's Sarsaparilla bas caused thousands to be thankful for this great medicine. It dipels tbe causes of dyspepsia; and tones up tbe digestive organs.
