AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Jloro Charge Against the Wabash. Chicago, Jan. 18. It is now charged that tho Wabash railway is selling largo numbers of thousand-mile tickets to scalpers in Chicago and St. Louis, allowing them to 6ignany name they pleaso to tho printed contract on tho tickets. It is claimed that these tickets are sold at tho rate of 20, tho regular rate beiiig $3, enabling tho scalers to ?ell them, at profit, much lower than it is possible for the regular agents of tho Wabash to sell them over their own counters. -a Personal Iocal and State Notes. t) Mowat has been appointed assistant general freight agent of tho Toledo, Peoria Western road. W. D. Hines, who, for soma years past, has represented tho Kansas Southern road in this territory, re tires from that position on Feb. 1. Samuel Barton, a grandson of Commodore Vanderbilt, ha been elected a director of one of the Vanderbilt lines tho Ontario &. Western road. A W. Pennington, tho ticket, a cent who was dropped nuderthe president's agree

ment, at Kansas uity, lor cutting a rate, has been reinstated. Inthelirst fifteen days of January the Lake Erie & Western shows an increase in cross earninss over those of tho corresponding period in 1SS3 of 818,300. .TohnX. Abbott, chairman of the Western States Passenger Association, has called a meeting of tho managing officers of the lines at Chicago on Friday, Jan. 25. Chairman lilanchard, in accordance with a request from tho freight committee of tho Central Traflio Association, has decided that freight in transit shall pay tho increased fixed charges. The new shops of the Ohio & Mississippi road which are nearing completion at Washington, Ind., cost 200,000 and aro more commodious than those of the Pennsylvania Company at Indianapolis. The live-stock movement East over the ree-line of late has been very heavy. On Sunday last this road delivered at Cleveland i76 ear-loads of liogs, 00 per cent, of -which went east over the Lake Shore. Col. J. K. Shaler, well-known in Indianapolis railroad circles, has taken hold as general manager of tho Chatanooaa, Bonw fc Colnmbns road. . His first circular appoints A. McColiister, assistant general passenger and freight agent. The changes in the running timo of the express trains botween Chicago and Kansas City take effect Feb. 3. This will necessitate the changing of time by some of the Indianapolis lines which run in connection with the Chicago & Alton. T. C. Clark, former president of the Union Bridge Company, has been elected president of the Cleveland. St. Louis & Kansas City, railroad, in place of J. T. K. Hay ward. Other changes aro expected to bo made within a few days. The directors of tho Pullman Palace-car Company, vesterday, declared the regular quarterly dividend of 2 per cent., payable Feb. 15. At the office of the company it was stated that no reference was made to an extra dividend, and that none is anticipated. In cutting down expenses the Atchison, Topeka &. Santa Fe is to retire some of its district passenger agents. F.JT. Hendry, who has represented the road in this territory f or someyears rast,will remain with the company, but will be transferred to some other point in tho East and his scope of territory enlarged. The Vandalia has secured another contract for hauling 500 car-loads of corn East. The corn is for export. The rumor that the road lost heavily by the advance rates on the l.OOO-car-loall contract, which they had, is pronounced false.. The advance, of course, cnt down the profit in carrying it, but still there was a lair margin left, taking the contract as an entirety. J. D. Campbell, general solicitor of the Ohio, Indiana &. Y estern.has given out the gross earnings of the road from Jan. &. 1S88, to Oct. 31, 1888, which were 1,151,070; also the approximate earnings lor the entire year, showing gross earnings of $1,489,983. He refuses to divulge the net results lest they prove misleading, m and says that tho company will hereafter issue monthly statements of earnings. j Ticket-brokers are on tho anxious seat Their business is down to a minimum, and indications of much improvement arc slim. They have no excursion tickets to work on, and the inducements they offer on tickets to anv distant point aro not suh as to draw business. Parties going to California points strike the regular offices, where they may possibly get a little off by tho ticket agent dividing his commission. The Woodruff Sleeping-car Company has sent this month twenty-six of its sleeping cars here to be repainted and given general repairs. The work is to bo done at the shops of the Indianapolis, Decatur & Western road, 120 men being employed in the work. The coaches, when relettered, will read "The Union Palace-car Company, vhich is the title of the reorganized consolidated Woodruff and Mann boudoir companies. Among the important improvements made to the Lake Erie & Western road last year, aside from the building of the Peoria extension, was the replacing of 2,200 feet of wooden bridges with first-class iron structures. One hundred and thirty-five openings were irou-piped, with stono masonry at the end, the pipes ranging from eighteen to forty-eight inches in diameter, as the necessity of the water-ways required. Three thousand feet of trestle was also filled. Master Mechanic McKenna, of tho Indianapolis, Decatur & Western road, uses natural giisin tho West-side round-house ior getting ud steam in the locomotives. Just before tne engine leaves the roundhouse a little coal is thrown in. and the engine is ready for service. On Tuesday last jnengino was washed out and was perJectly cold. Statural gas was turned . on in the tire-box, and in forty-five minutes the engine was in readiness to run out and start off with a heavy freight train. The Canada roads doing business in this conutry are rather nonplussed over the order issued by the customs department, at JJetroit, which claims that all Canadian cars used as a part of a through line by Canadian routes bo held at Detroit until duty is paid on each one. Tho customs authorities admit that such cars can trans port merchandise from anv noint in tho )t be reanother tho lat ter place the cars go through Canada. An examination of the cost of operating ne Madison & Indianapolis road in its any days bows that the first president, ". i$. Palmer, was paid a salary of per annum. When his successor, Samuel Merrill, was elected, the salary of the president was raised to $1,000 a year. ' Two J ears later John lirough was elected president and the 6alary of this official was raid to 62,000 a year, and this sum was paul him until ho left that road and was e lected president of theiiee-linc. In tho hist four years which tho Madison fc Indi?naii0 i was .operated tho gentlemen who Mud the positions of secretarv. treasurer. general ticket agent and general freight Jffent, received ."i00 a year ami worked fourteen to sixteen hours every day except Vv c T; n thoso days railroads observed luesauoatn. The indications are that tho earnings of nc coal lines in January will bo 50 per cent, below those of thin rnrresnomlinir tract but owing to the mild weather a large per cent, of the coal delivered at Chicago and over the Northwest ou the early contracts is still in stock and the usual or-l-rs for January and February are not lorthcoming. One mauacerof an important f oal line says that ho will not be surprised " tuet-aruiiigs from this branch of traffic lall (V) lver nllt t)i1mv tliAan nf ln.( ai Ir .January lat year they were handling 250 car-ioau? oi coal, a day, but now Beyenty-live is called a jrood movement.

A Few Figures as to Library Circulation, and Report as to School Attendance, At the meeting of School Commissioners last night a report was submitted by Mr. Greenstreet giving comparative figures from tho libraries of soveral cities as to tho average per cent, of the circulation of one book and the cost of its circulation. In Cincinnati tho circulation is 235 per cent, of t he whole; cost of circulation, 11 1-3 cents. Chicago, 452 per cent.; cost not given. Cleveland, 400 per cent.; cost, 10 3-4 cents. t. Louis, 575 per cent.; cost, 03-4 cents. Omaha, 513 per cent.; cost, 3 1-3 cents. Milwaukee, 221 per cent.; cost, 7 8-4 cents. San rancisco, the per cent, was not given; the cost of circulation is 5 cents, and in Indianapolis one book is in circulation i-lO per cent, of the whole, and its cost of circulation is 1 3-4 cents. All tho libraries are free except that of St. Louis. . Mr. Haughey reported that owing to the increased danger of fire by placing the boiler and encrino in Sn 1 cnbnnl building

the insurance company had increased the amount of insurance to itl. Tho report of oupeiimenuenx Jones ior uecemoer was read. It showed that there had been an increase of registration nf JvSX rninilj n-pr the corresponding month, of lSs7. The av erage uauy attendance in uecemoer, iwss, was C30 more than in 1&S7, and the number of eases of tardinoss bnd hwn rodiippil to 120. There were iM suspensions for misconuuet in uecemoer, 15S7, and during tho same month in 1Ss8. There were 50 cases of corporal punishment during the month, iicraillfit in "NTntnlini of fncra rf mm AW- mm V IU m V L A. r-.

It was agreed, however, to permit the organization to meet there on next Monday night. Adjourned. Proved a Legitimate Birth. I A trial has been before Judge Walker iov the last few days around which there is 6omo bit of romance, dating back to tho slavery days. Mrs. Fanny Wells is tho plaintiff in a suit for partition of real estate. Sandy Nelson, who, she alleged, was her father, lived in this county for a number of years, and died leaving property to be diviueu among me wiuow auu iour cniiurcn. In the apportionment of the estate Mrs. Wells was left out, and she brought tho suit, and gained it, for her share. The defenso claimed that she was not a child of Nelson, she having been born while he was away from home. Nelson was married in Kentucky, according to the usage and laws of that State governing the marriage of slaves, and becoming involved in a dispute writn his master he tied, leaviuff Nancv. his wife. with his master. During this period of his ab sence, the defense claimed, Mrs. w ells was born. Sho affirmed that her birth occured before the trouble of her father and his master. The jury, after hearing the cvi1 i 1 IS A 1 uence, returned a veruict giving ner an equal share with tho rest, which will prob ably amount to $o,000 m this city. The Wholesale Grocers Exchange. The wholesale grocers held an adjourned meeting, yesterday afternoon, to complete tho organization of tho exchange. Every wholesale house in the city was represent ed. Tho grocers wish it understood that they do not organize for the sake of advancing prices, but simply to protect themp.elves against competition. Another object is to have prices uniform, and to this end they selected Harry Coughlen, of tho firm of Slooro & Coughlen, to revise the quotations. There are now thirteen large wholesale houses of this character here, and it is stated that their sales exceed in amount annually those of the wholesale grocers of Cincinnati, 0. Survivors of the Siege of Vicksbur;. The survivors of tho Thirty-fourth and One-hundreth Indiana regiments are to meet at tho Grand Hotel, on the 22d of next month, in accordance with a resolution adopted at their Portland reunion, in October last, looking to tho organization of tho survivors of the siege of Vicksbursr.

Messrs. PROCTER & GAMBLE, Cincinnati, O. Gentlemen Although a stranger to you, and my testimonial entirely unnecessary, as it . certainly is unsolicited, yet I take great pleasure in testifying to the excellence of your Ivory Soap, and thanking you for putting it on the market at so low a price. It has entirely supplanted the use of Castile and other fine soaps in my household for several years past, being in no way inferior and from fifty to seventy-five per cent, more economical. A good test I find for the purity of a soap is to try it with a brush for cleansing the teeth, and the taste of the Ivory so used is perfectly sweet and clean. Very Respectfully Yours, W. S. BAKER, M.D. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 1 Ivory ' ;" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it. Copyriplit 15W. by Proeter A GsmW.
