AFFAIES OF THE KAILWATS. A Depressing: Decision. Chicago, Feb. 4. Tho offioials of the railroads interested in Iowa traffic appeared deeply depressed to-dny over Judge Brewer's decision. Tho heads of the legal departments of the various companies vrcro in consultation this afternoon, and if they find that there is still a lighting chance to checkmate tho Iowa commission, they will doubtless avail themselves of it; but in tho meantime thev cannot avoid putting tho dreaded schedule of rate into operation. These rates are about :X) per cent, lower than those now in eflfict in that State, and CO per cent, lower than tins tho Illinois commission's rate. The etl'crt of this change " it is claimed by the railroad ottitials, will be to pull down Stato ami interstate rates throughout the West, for in obeying the Iowa law the roads cannot ignore the provisions of the interstate-commerce law. All the Western roads, it is asserted, will bo affected, and the managers are inclined to ' take a gloomy view of the situation. One official said: The whole outlook tor is changed by Judge Brewer s decision." . Personal. Local and State Notes. Wm. IS. KcKeen, president of tho Vandalia, is in the city for a day or two. The annual meeting of the stockholders of tho Belt road will be held in this city today. J. P. Lancaster has been granted letters patent on a rail coupling for railway tracks which is said to poshes excellent points. W. R. Hill, general agent of the Bee-line at this point, who is ill with typhoid fever, was yesterday reported to be doing well. The movements of President Ingalls are jnving tone to the stock and securities of the Chesapeake 5c Ohio, as well as to those of theC, I., St. L.&C. G. G. Hadley formerly general manager of the Chicago &. Indiana Coal road, now extensively- encaged in mining coal in Ohio, is spending a day or two in tho city. General Superintendent Black, of tho Jeflersonville, Madison &. Indianapolis road, who has been seriously ill with throat trouble for two weeks, is reported to be im.Vroving. ' The express companies vesterday restored ' rate3 in all directions. Tho rate from New York to Indianapolis is now 2.50 per hundred. During the rato war it dropped as . low as 75 cents. E. A, Ford, general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, and John Chesborough, assistant general passenger agent of tho Vaudalia, ait to bo in the city to-day. ' The superintendent of motive power of " the Lake Shore road is preparing specifications for some heavy passenger and freight engines which the company proposes to contract for at an early day. When the C, I., St. L. &. C. puts on through trains, to rnn in connection with , the Chesapeake & Ohio road. No. 4, which now passes here at 4 p. m., will leave an hour earlier, running into Cincinnati at . The Lake Erio fc Western begins tho ,-5 ear in a promising manner, its earnings s lor January being 182,11)4, an increase of , $33,810 over those of January, 1888. Of this .increase tho passenger department made

13.120. I Tl&rry Drew, one of projectors oMhe road ju iuo iiiuiii uu, iiuiu r orb t uyuo 10 Lafayette, says that track-laying on this j line will be commenced in May. It will require but little grading, as the canal bank jisin excellent condition mostot the distance. . The vestibule train which is to bo run between New Orleans and Montezuma, making three round trips per mouth, went south over the L., N. A. &, C.road on Sunday last. The train is lighted by electricity, contains a library, barber shop, dining car, sleeping J coaches and other modern conveniences. The arrangement for heating the coaches of the Bee-line trains by steamtaken from v.ho locomotive has now been tested for -three months, and is giving perfect satisfaction. One striking feature of this method is that tho air in a coach can be Changed entirely in fifteen minutes by pnt- " ting on the steam and opening tho ventila- ; tors. .... President McKeen has his annual report nearly ready for tho, press. It will snow only a slight decrease in earnings, the loss having been incurred largely in the last six ; months, and is wholly due to the falling off ,of tho coal traffic, as a result of the iutroTdnction of natural gas over a large portion of the State and the mildness of the fall and "winter. - Tho indirect lines aro giving the moro direct lines some warm competition in tho way of time to Eastern points on fast-freight : line business. The Blue line landed freight in New York last week in a little" over four -days from the hour of shipment. One of the direct lines which took freight for the same point for the same party was over live days getting it to that city. The east-bound shipments of Hour, grain and provisions from Chicago, by the lines in the Central Traffic Associationlast week, aggregated 0,502 tons against 31.075 for the previous week, a decrease of 1.118 tons, . and against Sti.150 for the corresponding . "week of lb$3, a decrease of 5,500 tons. The ,Vanderbilt lines carried 48.8 per cent, of the whole business; tho Pennsylvania lines, 2.14: the Grand Trunk, 2L7; the B. &. O., 8.6; Big Four, 0.5. Geo. Frey, ot the executive committee, who was for three days in Louisville in conference with the members of the American "Ticket-brokers' Association, has returned. He states that the executive committee have been instructed to employ the best Uegal talent to defend them against the encroachments which the agreement of tho presidents makes upon their business. A large sum of money has been placed at the disposal of the executive committee to bo , used in that direction. John Williams, general solicitor of tho Terre Haute & Indianapolis road, says, regarding tho suit brought by tho Bank of ;the State of New York, through which it has obtained from the Supremo Court of that State an attachment against the property of the Tenre Haute & Indianapolis .Railroad Company there, the bank suing foi .1,00, claimed to be due on a three-per cent, dividend, declared on the company's s'ock, of which the bank holds 1,000 shares, that it is only a question of ownership. The money is in tho treasury to pay such .dividends when the proper ownership is established. A sharp fellow was arrested . in Philadelphia last week who had been detected in purchasing tickets and then erasing the original point of destination and substituting another one. moro distant, thereby increasing the value of tho ticket. For instance; one reading from "Philadelphia to Overman' worth 17 cents, was changed to read "Philadelphia to Lancaster," making it worth $2.06. It is said that the skill with which the alterations were made was most remarkable, since the printed destination was erased and the substitution made with ink, and when used on night trains would pass the scrutiny of the most careful passenger conductors. A practical consolidation of tho Chicago &, Eastern Illinois and the Chicago fc Indiana Coal road has been arranged, and an application to list $1,4(5,200 preferred ami g'i,197,S00 common stocks of tho former road proves the sincerity of tho union. The new issues simply represent the capital of the , Indiana Coal railway, and tho exchange will be made share for share. It is understood that i:ho organization of tho C. fc I. C. road will be preserved, but with the exception of the necessary shares to qualify directors, the stock will bo transferred to the Chicajto &. Eastern Illinois road, and in the way of. business hereafter there will be but one tock. Keports of earnings are to be consolidated from this time on. The Chicago &. Eastern Illinois, with its double track for fifty miles out ef Chicago, its connections with tho E. & T. H. road, and its Western connections, is rapidly taking its stand as one of the leading systems of roads in the West. During the last thirty days competitors of the Ohio, Indiana & Western road havo 'been puzzled to understand how that road was getting so much business for Texas points through a ticket-scalper, who often nad blocks of live or ten tickets reading over the Ohio. Indiana Western and the Chicago JL Alton to Kansas City, then over one of the lines out of Kansas City to :Dallas. Tex. The tickets were unlimited, and sold at 20.0. when the unlimited ticket by that route, LJ made up by tho sum of tne local rates, would be: Indiananolis to St. Louis, $7; St. Loui" ?3 Kansas C'ty, 67, and from Kr.nsas Ciiy to Dallas, CI7..V). Inquiry showed that hes tickets wcro purchased at the Union Station on a rato which the Indianapolis rate-sheet gives when unlimited tickets aro sold via Cairo. Uy ning this rate tho ticket-scalper has bem aM to shade rate and then have $2.05 left. Passmiger men were much amoved, vesta day. on tli discovery of tho

mistake, and had to give the scalper the credit of making a sharp deal through the alleged oversight of ono of tho ticket agents at tho Union Station. David G. Legirett, of New York, has given notice to the attorneys in tho Wabash, St, Louis &. Pacific case, that he will this week mo ve. to bo made a party to the consolidated cause of Jesup & Knox vs. the Wabash company and others. The petitioner says that until this time he had relied on J. F. Joy to protect the holders' interest in such debts, and was not aware nutil 6ince the conclusion of the testimony before the master, that Joy had failed to set up the right of this class of bondholders. He has not set forth the fact that of the fnnded debt plan of 1877. whereby the coupons, past duo and unpaid in 1877, were converted into funded debt bonds and made a part of tho mortgage debt. Mr. Leggett claims that Joy is actively engaged in promoting the plan of organization by ignoring the claims mentioned, which he considers nighly prejudicial to the petitioner's interests, and for that reason he is unwilling to accept tho plan. Stable Floors. American Agriculturist A great deal has been written about clay, stone, concrete and brick as materials for the tloors o stalls and loose boxes. The theory is that earth is soft and moist for the horses feet, and that next to the original soil other cooL moist material is desirable. In practice, a stall or box with no other floor than clay soon becomes an offensive quagmire; a stone floor is cold and hard, concrete is soon broken up by the continual stamping of the iron-shod feet, and bricks absorb offensive fluids to a greater extent than wood. A floor of good sound spruce or pine planks, thoroughly soaked through with crude petroleum, will resist dampness and decay lor a long time, and keep clean and wholesome. In a stall a double floor is laid, the lower course transversely of the stalls, and tho upper one lengthwise and extending back only as far as tho stall itself. There should bo a very slight slope to the rear for drainage. It is a serious mistake to make the slope too steep, as it compels the horse to stand in an unnatural position with a constant strain upon the rear tendons of the legs. Real Estate Transfers.
