AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Opinion of the Interstate CommUiloa. Washingtok, Not. 2. The following is a syllabus of the opinion and findinp of the Intertats Commerce Commission upon the Boards f Trade of Farmington, Northfield, Fairbanlt, And Owatoncata, in the State of Minnesota, against the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Panl Railway Company: The Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul "Railway Company owns and operates an eztensire system of railroads. One of its lines, used largely for the transportation of wheat, runs from a point in Dakota Territory through Minneapolis, to St. Paul, to Milwaukee and Chicaeo. Between Minneapolis and Milwaukee the defendant has two routes, one by way of Redwing and other towns, called the river division, and being the shorter route: the other ry way of Northfield, Fairbanlt and other towns, and celled the Iowa & Minnesota division. The through rate on wheat from the western terminus in Dakota to Milwaukee and Chicago is 25 cents per 100 pounds, with the privilege of milliner in transit on both the above-mentioned divisions. The rate on wheat from said Western territory to Minnespolis and St. Paul, when consigned there, and most, if not all, of which is carried by other roads, is 17$ cents a hundred. The rate on the river .division of the defendant's road, end other competing roads from Minneapolis to Milwaukee and Chicago, and from all intermediate and connecting points on that route, is 7i cents a hundred pounds. Tbe rate on wheat on the Iowa & Milwaukee division from Minneapolis and the intermediate towns on that division is 15 cents per 100 pounds, excent from Farmington. which is 13 cents. Tbe rate on other commodities is the same by both routes. Tbe fact that the rato for wheat on the Iowa and Milwaukee division is double thereto enjoyed by neighboring towns on the other division works practically to their disadvantage and prejudice. On complaint of millers and others on the Iowa and Milwaukee division of unjust discrimination, it is held that the complaint is well founded; that the rate for wheat on that division is relatively too high. While a reasonable differential rate may be allowed on that division on account of greater distance and probable larger expense of transportation and the greater stringency of tbe competive forces on the river division, the difference above tbe present rate on the river division should not exceed two and a half cents a hundred. It is not a suffiient compliance

with the law that rates are rea son able in themselves, but they should be so relatively reasonable as to protect communities and business against unjust die crimination. When tbe same carrier operates parallel lines, and for any canse accepts low rates on one line, it should furnish sufficient corresponding advantages to the patrons of the other line to. prevent undue prejudice and disadvantage, and to preserve the substantial equality contemplated by the statute. Scarcity of Cars Kast as Well as West. The Pennsylvania and Reading railroads have recently been obliged to add to their car equipment In order to accommodate the amount of freight offering. There are now nearly 60,000 freight ears on the Pennsylvania railroad east of Pittsburg and Erie, and yet the supply is inadequate to the demand. This does not include the equipment of the Northern Central, tbe Philadelphia & Wilmington or th West Jersey, which includes probably 10,000 cars more. These cars are all kept moving, and the car record officers are following them up closely. Hardly has a car been switched into the yard of a consignee when he is served with a notice to unload the ear immediately, or he will be charged for delay. With the utmost exertions tf the aivision superintendents and the oar record department, many shippers are unable to obtain cars for their business. The Reading railroad, with an equipment of over 30,000 freight cars, can accommodate its shippers but little better than the Pennsylvania. Many complaints have been made, but the officials say they are doing the best they can. The pressure of traffic is so great that trains must be moved slowly. The Jersey Central is relatively as bad off as the Pennsylvania or Reading, and all three companies have been trying to borrow cars from other railroads with little or no sucoess. All the roads running into the Northwest wheat regions are greatly- distressed for want of ears with which to move tbe enormous amount of wheat now in the country. Tbe elevators are all full, and everything that can hold wheat is crowded. Tbe farmers have neglected their plowing to get their wheat to market and now it comes all at onee and overwhelms the railroads. The Export Kate Question Settled. New Yoek, Nov. 2. The executive committee of the trunk lines decided the matter of export rates at its meeting in Commissioner Fink's office to-day. All the trunk lines were represented and also the Grand Trunk. The latter acquiesced in tbe decision of the committee. By the rule adopted tbe average through rate to Liverpool from Chicago was adopted as the rate for all routes to the other side of the Atlantic. By this arrangement it will cost the same by which every seaboard outlet export stuff may be forwarded, that is, if the freight is sent by way of Boston, New York or Baltimore, the through rate to Liverpool will be the same. Mr. Fink presided at the meeting. He stated that tbe rule adopted decided nothing about the, railroads' apportionment of the through freight charge. That matter must be decided between the steamship companies and the railroads. Tbe Grand Trunk had acquiesced in the decision, but of course were not bound by the decision any longer than they agreed to the same. Pennsylvania Appointments. Pittsburg, Nov. 2. Asa result of the reorganization of the Pennsylvania Company, farther appointments are announced to-day as follows: David S. Gray has been appointed general gent of the Pennsylvania Company and manager of the Union Line, with office at Columbus. O.; F. H. Kingsbury, Eastern superintendent, with office at New York, and E. A. Dawson, Western superintendent, with office at Chicago. rS office of manager and general manager of the whole lines here has been consolidated, and Manager Baldwin will fill tbe place. Local and State Notes. The employees in the shops on the Vandalia )lne November 1, commenced working but nine lours. On Nov. 1, the train despatchers on the L., N. A. & C removed their headquarters from Lafayette to Bloomington, Ind. s The Indianapolis car-works last month, built 286 cars. On the last day of October, thirty-two lars were shipped from the works. Receiver MeNulta and his officials are this jreek making an inspection of the Wabash proper, and tbe branches it operates. The L, B. & W. has just placed in service two forty-five ton passenger engines which were rebuilt from eight-wheel freight engines. The Vandalia engines are draped, oat of respect to the memory of engineer Hugo, who was killed at a railroad crossing on Monday night. A. Butte has been appointed purchasing agent f the L. N., A. & C road, succeeding K. W. Glading, who goes to Thomasville, Ga., to represent the road. In the month of October the baggage men at the Union Depot handled 34,170 pieces of baggage. Of this number, 11,169 were checked out from Indianapolis. Mr. N. F. Wood, formerly superintendent of the Valley, has been appointed general manager of the Pittsburg, Marion Ss Chicago, with headquarters at New Lisbon. CoL Oran Perry, general agent of the Pennsylvania lines at this point, is spending a eonple of days in Cincinnati in attendance at the reunion of the Loyal Legion. Tbe New Albany & Eastern road, an extension of the Ohio & Mississippi, is nearing completion. This will let the O. & M. into Louisville over the Kentucky and Indiana bridge. Several of the directors of the L E. St L (air-lice) are tbis week making an inspection of the property. Two of tbe number are from Boston, and represent a majority of the stockholders. A. D. Perry, who represents the Chicago & ' Alton in this district, has made his office atIraetive by placing 150 stereoscopic views of the principal buildings in Los Angeles in bis window. Freight traffic on both the Vandalia and the C, L, St. L. & C is so heavy that it interferes with the running of the passenger trains, nearly all of them coming into Indianapolis ?rom the West and North late. The interchange of traffic between the C, L. St L &C. and the I. & St. L. roads, last month, averaged thirty-eight cars per day. Both managements are well pleased with their present joint running arrangement. In the month of October an average of 8C3 loaded cars per day were bandied on tbe C, I. St. L. & C. road. President Ingalls expects that this month the daily average will reach 1,000 per day, which is the capacity of the present quipment of the road. General Manager Bradbury and Superintendent Hill, of the Lake Erie & Western road, pent yesterday in the city Ioeking over matters, ae general offietrs will begin moving their

desks furniture, etc., to Indianapolis on the 15th

ot this month. Tbe new bnilaing wnicn iney are to occupy is rapidly approaching completion. and is a credit to the company ana an ornament to the city. - The stockholders of the Louisville, Cincinnati & Dayton railroad yesterday elected the followine directors: Geo. A. t.vans, aosuu wauagner, .Tnsenh Penninirton. George C Lvans, New York: J. R. Helm, J. R. McCracken. J. C. Fawcett, Louisville: a A. Korbly, Madison; Charles E. Golay, Vevay. W. W. Woolen leaves for Boston this evening to take depositions from General Corse and oth ers whoare conversant with the history of the Toledo, Cincinnati & St Lonis road, their testi mony to be used in tbe litigation recently sprung on tbe old company, calling for a receiv er for a portion oi tne roaa. In October, this year, the C, I., St L. & C. carried 20 per cent more tonnage than in the corresponding month 18S6, yet a slight decrease in earnings was shown every week in the month. All of which is attributable to tbe reduction made in freight rates to comply with the pro visions of the interstate law. It is stated that the $400,000 that the Ives-Stay-nor syndicate advanced on the Cincinnati. Wa bash & Michigan deal has been expended in improving the road-bed. Consequently tbe Wade party, which has had to take tbe road back, have no reason to regret that tbe young financier made the drive for the property that he did. Round-trip tickets to Jacksonville, Fla., good to go and return by one route, have been placed on sale at the Union Depot at $39. This rate will be given only until Nov. 10, but tickets sold prior to that date will be good to retnrn on until June L It is thought that after tbe 10th of this month a more reasonable round-trip rate will be made, and the tickets will be made good to go by one route and return by another. F. Bronghton, general manager of the Chicago & Atlantic road, will on the 1st of December retire and tbe understanding is that B. Thomas, who on the first of this month took tbe euperintendency of tbe road, will be made general manager. A. S. Crane is to be continued in charge of the traffic department Mr. Thomas stands very high in tbe estimation of the Erie people, who now practically operate the C & A. road. - An important meeting or a committee, com prising a number of general passenger agents of the Central Traffic Association, will be held today at Columbus. Tbe entire purpose of the meeting it has been impossible to ascertain, but the committee will take into consideration the passenger situation as a whole, and formulate certain recommendations to be presented to the association at its regular meeting in Chicago next week. A ninety ton engine built for a road in Arizo na by the Baldwin locomotive-works, is en route westward and will pass over the Belt road with in a day or two, and then go west over tbe L & Su L. Tbe engine will be run slow over the bridges that the strain on them should not be greater than the- can bear. Running at the speed of twenty miles per hour an engine of such weight, it is stated, would have a pressure on .the bridge of 110 tons or more. The directors of the Pennsylvania road, who spent a couple of weeks recently in inspecting the Western lines, have reached home, and were more than pleased with the condition of their lines west of Pittsburg, and so expressed themselves to members of the Philadelphia press. Especially were they favorably impressed with the southwestern portion of their vast system of roads, and also with tbe volume of business they were handling from day to day. General Manager Henderson, of the Chicago & Ohio River road, is spending a couple of days inspecting tbe property. Mr. Henderson says that while it is a hard job to lift this road out of the mire, tbe company owe no one anything. Tbe equipments of tbe road are undergoing repairs at the I., B. & W. shops, and yesterday two passenger coaches were turned out of the shop which had been overhauled. The work was very creditable to the mechanic in the L, B. & W. shops, both in the interior and exterior finish. General and Miscellaneous. The Union Pacific road has about 6,500 share holders, having lost only 1,300 in the three and one-half years since dividends were suspended. The Pullman company now emptors upwards of 9.000 persons, running daily 1.260 cars. In the lent twelve months their cars have carried 3,085,242 passengers. The Pullman company is placing some elegant new sleeping coaches on the Erie & Boston line, the coaches running between Chicago and Boston via tbe Hoosac Tunnel route. 'The New York Central company is endeavoring to arrange with the Soutbern Pacific company for the checking of baggage through to San Francisco and other Pacific eoast points. The Western and Northwestern roads brought into Chicago in October 20,810 car-loads of grain, against 21.006 in October, 1886, and against 21,137 the corresponding period 1885. The Philadelphia & Reading September statement, although not np to the wild and impossible estimates of some of tbe financial papers, has shown a money-gaining power almost unparalleled in tbe history of commerce. Tbe city of Knoxville has voted to subscribe $100,000 to the Carolina, Knoxville & Western railroad. It is to run from Port Royal to Augur ta and thence to Knoxville, and is expected to be completed within eighteen months. The annual report of the Boston & Albany railroad gives its total receipts for the year at $8,925,745. The table of accidents shows 2 passengers killed and 23 injured; 15 era pi ores killed and 231 injured; 18 other persons killed and 36 injured. ' Bradstreet's gives the earnings per mile of sixty-four roads for nine months es showing an increase of 6 3 per cent over last year, 7.8 per cent, over 1885, and 2.1 per cent over 1884. The feature is the decrease per mile by granger and Southwestern roads. The amount of railroad bonds on which Interest will be paid this month reaches $524,500,000, and the interest $15,087,252, or $2,507,850 greater than in November, 1886. Dividends will be paid on $378,628,822 of stock, tbe payments be ing $7,86o,09, or about $1,000,000 larger than last year. The New York & New England road has three of its trains equipped with steam-heating apparatus. Snperintendent Piatt says that he has no doubt that steam from tbe locomotive is to be the future agent for heating passenger trains, which he thinks will not only be safer but more economical than the old methods. Dissatisfied stockholders of the Memphis & Charleston railroad have filed a bill in equity against tbe East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia, tbe lessee, charging gross mismanagement, and asking for an injunction preventing tbe East Tennessee voting at the coming election on. 106,251 shares of Memphis & Charleston stock. When the general passenger agents of the transcontinental lines again resume their conference, the first subject to receive consideration will be the abolition of commissions. It is the intention to take some decided action to curb the rate-cutting propensities of tbe San Francisco agents. An effort will be made to do away entirely with commissions. The New York, New Haven & Hartford is building a new round-house at Springfield, Mass. Five hundred car-loads of granite have been used in the walls and foundations. The building will be heated by steam. The locomotives will run into their stalls head first, and the smoke-stack 8 will be on the outside rim of the building. The building is very solidly built, and is estimated to cost over $150,000. A Snoring Beauty. Adbian, Mich., Nov. 2. Gertrude King, the principal witness at the coroner's inquest on Mrs. Jane Hoag, who drowned herself Friday, caused a long wait Saturday. She took tbe stand and immediately fell into a deep sleep. A snore was the indication to the officers that she was not awake. The snore was repeated with increased energy. A womn companion was shocked, and gave the snoring beauty a vigorous nudge. It had no effect, and she slept on, snoring louder and louder every minute. A last the officers took a hand and tried unsuccessfully to rouse her. They shook her, stuck pins in her, and pulled her hair, without avail, and finally sat down to await her waking. The time dragged by, and tbe case waited while the girl slept as soundly and beautifully as if she was in her bed. It was 4 o'clock when she went to sleep, and at 11 she was still sleeping. Then the eoroner adjourned the inquest for the day, and left the officer to watch the girl. It has since been learned that she is given to taking naps of from twenty to twenty-five hours' duration. The Pancake Thrower. St. Lottis. Nov. 2. Mrs. Anna Sachs, who threw a pancake at Mrs. Cleveland dnring the President's visit to tbis city, was fined $50 and costs for the misdemeanor, but on appeal was released by the payment of $15. She then explained that she had no intention of throwing the pancake at any one, but that she was attracted by tbe procession while eating the panCake, and as she did not want to drop it on the heads of the people who stood under her she was standing on the balcony of tbe second floor she attempted to toss it into the yard, but it flew at a tangent and fell on the first lady of the land.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

Oat of Patience. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal I am quite out of patience with tbe Journal at times. It is so forgetful. If I were writing for another paper I would say it is obtuse, at times, but I will not venture such a remark in its own columns, seeing that I am in them only by courtesy. But then; I call to mind that most of the "force" on the Journal were too young to take much notice of things during the former Democratic rule. There are thousand of voters now who imagine that a dollar was always and everywhere a dollar, whereas during the Democratic rule, twenty-seven years ago, and back indefinitely, the dollar the farmer got for wheat yesterday might be anywhere from nothing to ninety-five cents to-day; or tbe dollar of to-day in Indianapolis might suffer the same discount in Boston, or even in Cincinnati, any time, yet still be a dollar at Indianapolis. Even some old folks have forgotten this, they have been so accustomed to dollars that were good yesterday, are good today and would have remained good forever, if those who made such dollars had continued at tbe helm dollars that are good here are just as good anywhere on tbis globe. Some old folks forget and some young folks seem not to know that twenty-seven years ago, during the closing years of the former Democratic rnle, the United States bad to pay twelve per cent on money borrowed to meet current expenses, while it borrows all it wants now at tbree per cent, and does not want to borrow even at that It was mostly these people that wanted a change three years ago, and they got it And now comes the Journal and complains because letters not tasteful to the party now running tbe postoffiee are not forwarded. Dear Journal, those who were old enough to notice things during the Democratic administrations immediately preceding this remember that in the strongly Democratic States letters were caver delivered to their rightful owners, if suspected of containing "incendiary." that is, anti-Democratic, matter; and newspapers were forbidden the mail if strongly anti-Democratic, and the departments at Washington approved, at least did not attempt to correct, the policy. It is this disposition to murmur at the mere foretaste of tbe retnrn of Democratic principles that grieves me. Wait till the Democracy has had a good chance. It is only two and a half years since they began to reverse the order of. things. They have made right good headway, considering everything. No one would have guessed, three years ago yesterday, that in so short a time Jeff Davis would have been preferred to Mr. Lincoln by a leading Democrat; that there would have been an open avowal of the subordination of tbe Union to the rights of the State, and that a leading Democrat would be stum pine the State of Ohio in defense of all these things, including the right to lash or sell his "mammy" at pleasure. The right to exelude letters from the mail, if not approved by the party, is historic Democracy. U. L See. The Shakspeare Epitaph. Cypher. To tVi Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I have oeeu reading with much interest the letters on the Sbakspeare-Bacon cipher. Permit me to say that although the spelling was the same as that of Sbakspeare's age, nevertheless it could contain a cipher. But Mr. Jacobs has a serious mistake in his numbering of the' letters. In tbe third line of the epitaph Mr. Jacobs has the number 65 over the "e," when it should be over the v "m1 in "man." Let him count and see. I have numbered my letters correctly and managed also to get "Francis Bacon" without discovering any law of the series, but I have hopes yet of finding one. I have an impression that I have made a mistake in selecting my letters, but have net had time yet to go over any work and see. I wish Mr. Jacobs would correct his error and see what he can make of it, and if he can find any law I hone be will announce it through your paper. w. H. B. Ijtdianapolis, Nov. 2. A Misunderstanding.
