AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. The Pennsylvania's Annual I port. The forty-second annual report of the management of the Pennsylvania lines is published, and is given in President Roberts's usual concise manner. The gross earnings of the Pennsylvania system for 1888 reached the sum of S11C500,29. The gross earning of the linea west of Pittsburg uere $19,579,177.4.3; operating expenses, $13,016,517.09; net earnings, $&5G2,3G0.39. President Roberts says that "it will bo noted that the lines west or Pittsburg show a comparative decrease in net results of 1,443,008.84 as compared with 1SJ7. While the freight movemcut shows a gain of 1,002,031 tons, and the passenger travel an increase of 1,055,521 in the number carried, there was a general reduction in the rates on all classes of traffic. Large expenditures were made in the purchase of real estate and in the increase of facilities at terminal points, the "renewal of bridges, the construction of branches and sidings, and upon freight and "passenger stations and new equipment. The condition of the properties was fully maintained. The amount expended during the year on capital account on the lines west of Pittsburg was 2,047,095.02. There were used in construction and repairs on the Northwestern lines operated directly in your interest 8,444 tons, and on the Southwestern lines 10.U74 tons, of new steel rails. The rates received for freight tralBcshow a continued annual decrease, even more marked in 18S3 than in previous years; the partial failure of crops m the West having ati'ected the volume of through traffic and Btimnlated an active competition among the Westeru roads for that business at unremunerative rates. This disastrous competition finally extended to the Kastem trunk lines, and foutd -expression in an open and severe reduction in the west-bound tariff by one of the principal railway companies, to meet what it believed to be the secret rates of some of its competitors. Your management, not unmindful of the advantages that have accrued to your properties from the conservative policy uniformly adopted by it, endeavored to maintain rates at a just and remunerative standard; but were reluctantly compelled to meet the tariffs made by other responsible lines, in order to protect the commercial and manufacturing interests situated upon your roads, and prevent a severe depletion of the volume of your traltic. The other lines west of Pittsburg, on account of which your company has assmied direct obligations, or in which it is largfly interested through ownership of securities, but which are operated through their own organizations, arc, the Chicago. St. Louis fc Pittsburg railroad, and roads operated through its organization; St. Louis. Vandalia & Terre llante railroad; Grand Rapids and Indiana railroad, and roads operated t throu eh its organization: East t. Louis fc Carondelet railway; Cincinnati &. Muskingum Valley railway, and the Waynesbnrg &. Washington railroad. The earnings of the Grand 'Rapids & Indiana Railroad Company, owing to a reduction in rates, were not quite sufficient to meet the interest on its entire funded debt, and the losses on its leased lines." Don't Like the Amended Law. Chicago, March 5. A local paper says: 'The announcement, yesterday, that the House of Representatives had parsed the Senate amendments to the interstate-commerce act, and that President Cleveland had affixed his signature thereto as one of the last acts of his administration, caused intense excitement in railroad circles. The railroad officials were taken completely by surprise. They had no idea that the differences between the House of Representatives and the Senate could be harmonized in time for action by both houses. The new amendments would not be especially obnoxious to the railroads if it were not for the fact that, in addition to a tine for riolation of tho law, any officer, agent or other person connected with a. railroad company who shall be convicted of discrimination shall be liable to imprisonment in the penitentiary. A money line alone had no terrors for the railroad officials. They knew tho companv wonld foot , the bill; but when prison walls and lonely cells 6tare them in the faco the case is different."

i Personal. Local and State Note. Tho new 8 a. m. train for Cincinnati, over the C, II. & D., is proving to bo a popular one with the traveling public. President Miller, of the C, M. & St. P., says there is no truth in tho report that P. D. Armour and his friends are to leave the directory of that road. General Manager McCrea and General Superintendent Miller will to-day inspect the Indianapolis & Vincennes road, operated by the Pennsylvania Company. The new side tracks which the C, I., St. L. & C. has planned to put in at Cincinnati, will increase its side-track room at that point sufficiently to hold eight hundred more cars than can now be handled at that point. Charles L. Jewett, of New Albany, is named as the probable successor of Colonel George Friealey, deceased, as general folicitor of the L., N. A. &. C. road. JS. O. Jay less, of Frankfort, as well, is mentioned for the position. There is some opposition to the re-election of George Roberts as president of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, but it is hardly probable that it will amount to much. Director Cassett is said to be an aspirant to the position. The Toledo, St. Louis &. Kansas City road is doing an excellent business, using all the locomotives and cars it can command. The business of the road has developed remarkably since it was converted from a narrowgauge to a standard-gauge road. The Ohio, Indiana &. Western makes public its earnings for the second week in February, which were SO,C45, an increase over earnings of the corresponding week in 188S of $3,473. Sin Jan. 1 the road has earned $173,253, which is an increase this year of The charge of cutting passenger rates, brought by the Wabash against the Lake Shore and other roads, failed to materialize. The trouble originated with some of tho minor roads in the trunk line and central traffic territory, which work through ticket scalpers. The Lake Erie Sc. Western road earned in February $204,761.99, against $14,377.09 in the corresponding month of 188s, an increase this year of $o3,S$4.90. The increase in the two tirst months of this year over January and February 1S88, amounted to $100,123.89. There are certain sections of the West in which shippers consider it a personal griev ance when roads strictly maintain rates. A case in point is Peoria, where threats were mad by the shippers, and, in fact, by the Tnblic. to bovrott nm to.h1 wliirli mfhore 1 to rami rates or reports to me centra iramc Association. President Hughitt is of the opinion that Federal Commissioner Walker will accept the chairmanship of the Interstate Railway Association, but lie is not inclined to accept it without strong assurances that there will be a vigorous co-operation with him in the contemplated measures to make tho agreement more than a rope of sand. There seems to be but one way out of the difficulty on Atlantic rates on export business, and that is the establishment of an association which shall tix rates bv the ocean lines. Then the ocean rates will be the same, or at least known from all points. As it is now there is no way of punishing roads which cut transatlantic rates on tho ocean tariff, provided they maintain tho land tariff Traffic Manager Parker, of the Lako Erie & Western road has appointed Robert T. Rrydon general passenger agent of the Lae Erie &. Western S3stem, vice T. W. Lee resigned to go with another companv. The appointment takes effect to-day. Mr. Jtrydon has for Rome time past been the Western agent of the Pennsylvania lines at Chicago; was formerly in the passenger department of the trunk lines under Commissioner Fink, and prior to that time general passenger a '.rent of the Ohio &. Mississippi road. He will doubtless make an excellent man for the L. E. & W. Tha.t tho peneral passenger agents of e ome roads are disposed to work in the interest of scalpers is evident from the manner they attack K. A. Ford, -ceneral pasecuger ageut of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, because he has been trying to get throngn the Legislature of Ohio bill making it a criminal offense for any other than an authorized ticket airent to uell railroad tickets in that State, and compelling the roads to redeem any ticket reading over their lines which tin holder wishes to dispose of. .Should tho holder ctll U.U ny Qther tliau t.ho railroad coin

The Chicago &, Alton announces that, beginning next Sunday, the fast-train service on that road between Chicago and Kansas City will be restored. The Burlington will take the samo step, beginning on Monday. Jly an agreement of all the interested roads the limited through trains between Chicago and the Missouri river were abandoned last summer. They are now to be restored, in deference to the demands of the patrons of the roads. It is supposed that all the lines will follow the example of the Alton and the Burlington, and that tho fast trains to Omaha will also be resumed. The Employes' Relief Association of the Pennsylvania Railroad Companv is getting on an excellent linancial foundation. In the year 18S8 there was contributed by the company and by the employes a total of $414.iJ93.57. The amount paid out to the families of employes in death benefits and for sickness and accident was $263,512.10, and with the surplus of 1SS7 there is now a balance in the treasury of $207,142.53, while the expenses of the institution for 1888 were $53,901.50. At the close of the year there were 19.332 members of the association. During the year the friends of 250 members received death benefits. If the statements of the Now York Mail and Express are correct Gen. John McNulta's prospects to secure the presidency of the consolidated Wabash interests are not very favorable. The Mail, of Monday, says: "General McNulta still manages to keep an item in circulation saying that he is likely to be president of the Wabash road when the purchasing committee finally get control of the property, and that President Ashley will retire. As a matter of fact. General McNulta endeavored to secure tho promise of some support when he was last in this city, but he was given to understand very pointedly that he had done nothing to commend himself to the owners of the property, and the sooner he was relieved from any charge in connection with it the better it would suit the stockholders. Mr. Gould, holding the trilling amount of 100,000 shares of the common stock, will probable have some influence in the election, and President Ashley's administration of tne Wabash Western in results affords a marked contrast to Receiver McNulta's administration of the Eastern lines." A DAY IN THE COURTS. The Attorney-General Auks to Have a Receiver Appointed for Sullivan Assets. Attorney-general Michener yesterday brought suit in the Circuit Court, on bohalf of tho State, against John E. Sullivan and W. K. Sproule, his bondsman, to recover $440. which the iirst-named defendant embezzled from the funds of the State intrusted to his care. The object of tho suit is to secure the appointmeat of a receiver to take charge of any and all moneys that may be due Sullivan. These, it is claimed, must be first used to settle the debts that now hang over the county clerk's1 office. Since the claim put forward by David Burton, one of Sullivan's bondsmen, seeking his relief from any obligation whatever, it is stated that the remaining sureties are not financially ablo to meet the demands of the bond. There is an almost endless number of small ontstauding debts against Sullivan, and it is feared that 6ome of his heavier creditors will profit by the inability of the lesser ones to resort to legal proceedings. There are private debts that are said to have been paid Ivy Sullivan, amonnting to something over $30,000, which money was obtained from tho trust funds in his possession. The complaint further claims that the persons to whom this money was paid were aware or tne ract that Mil n van had no legal claim on it, and such being tho case a question arises as to whether or not they can be held responsible. The suit in nuestion is over a $500 bond, forfeited bail in the Criminal Court, which Sullivan appropriated to his own use. The case will come up before Jndge Rowland this morning. Tacts Held Hack by Witnesses. John Daglish was before 'Squire Alvord, in the Mayor's court, yesterday morning, but very little headway was made in clearing up the mystery connected with the stabbing of Thomas Downey, Edward Van, who claims to have seen the cutting from a distance, states upon his oath that there were four men and one woman engaged in the dispute, and that when Downey fell, two of the men decamped. Van's testimoney created no little surprise. The James woman was released from jail, yes terday noon. It is suspected she is not telling all sho knows about the murder, but there is not sufficient evidence against her to warrant her being charged with participation therein. Merchant policeman Pat Harnett and Dr. Long were examined, yesterday afternoon, but their testimony shed no additional light on the case. Deed Set Aside. Judge Taylor yesterday decided a case for the quieting of title in a suit brought by the Berkshire Life Insurance Company against Louisa Stringer, Henry D. Stringer, Amos M. Saylor, et ah The plaintiffs claimed that the defendants had recorded a deed bearing a wrong date ia the transfer of some valuable real estate, and a petition was filed asking that the deed be net aside. The attorney for tho defendants yesterday consented to the granting of the petition, insomuch as it was evident that the deed had been wrongfully dated, and the dispute of title was set aside. Refused Many's Orders. County Treasurer Lof tin refused township Trustee Many's orders yesterday. The county treasurer says he has another order from Many warranting the payment of 3,000 to . Sullivan, which the latter collected, and when the trustee presented his official claims to the treasurer, yesterday, amounting to something near $4,500, Loftm insisted that his order to Sullivan should go as partial payment, which proposition Many refused. Both men are immovable in their positions taken, and the matter will go to the courts for final settlement. Another "Wire-Fence Salt. The Washburn &, Moen Company and Isaac L. Ellwood have brought suit for an injunction and accounting against J. H. Coulter and G. F. Dinwiddie, in the United States Court. The complaint charges an infrigement on a wire-fence patent. Notes of the Courts. The will of Louis Woerner was admitted to probate yesterday. His personal property and real f state are bequeathed to his wife, Wilhelmina Woerner, who, with Frank Fertig. will be the executors. Horace E. Smith and Emil Fertig are named as sureties on a bond of $1,000. Bernard Dugan, charged with robbing Hyman Lemontree of $1.08, was given a hearing in tho Mayor's court, yesterday, and bound over to await the action of the grand jury. John Scherrer, aged twenty-two. was declared insane yesterday. Ho is a beer-bottler, residing at 91 High street. The Court Record. 81TREME COURT DECISIONS. 13517.

SHORT SESSION OF THE SENATE.

Interest In the Cabinet Draws a Crowd of Vis itors How New Members Were Seated. "Washington, March 5.The extraordi nary session of the Senate for the considera tion of executive husiness was continued this morning in tho presence of galleries filled to overflowing hy visitors yet remaining in the city. On the lloor, tho new Senators received the congratulations of their associates, and tried to look as if occupying a seat in the Senate had been their usual occupation. They succeeded so well that strangers could not distinguish tho new from the old. Senator Ingalls, relieved of the duties of presiding officer, returned to hi3 old desk next to Senator Allison's, near the center aisle in the second row on the Republican side. He spent most of the time while waiting for the receipt of the measure announcing the Cabinet, in renew ing relations on the same plan with his colleagues. Anthony Iliggins, the new Republican Senator from Delaware, had Senator Bowen's old seat, tho last row on the Republican side, while Messrs. McMillan, of Michigan, and Washburn, of Minnesota, i . a- 3 i a ? a: uccupieu seats vacaieu oy ineir respective predecessors, Messrs. Palmer and Sabin. 'PI... ' : i i .. to suceed Senator Chandler, of New Hamp shire, having been presented to the benate, the appointee was conducted to the bar and sworn in by Vice-president Morton. The probable contest over the right of the Governor to appoint was not made, Mr. Vest stating that lie would not ask for the reference of the credentials to the committee on privileges and elections. The new Colorado Senator, Mr. Walcott, did not appear before the doors were closed ior executive session, air. uarDour, 01 Vir ginia, the only new Democratic fcenator, found a seat at the extreme richt of the chamber, in the rear row. He is a handsome man, with iron-grey hair, and easily commands attention. Mr. Kenna, just returned from West Virginia, found a seat next to Senator Vest, a good one in tho center of the Democratic quadrant. lhe all-absorbing question was: "v ill tho Cabinet be nominated to-day?" This was speedily answered in the anirmative, when Messrs. Ednmnus, Cullom and Butler ranged themselves in front of the presiding officer's desk, and, receiving recognition, Senator Edmunds announced that the committee appointed yesterdav for that pur pose had waited upon the President to notify him that the .Senate was convened in extraordinary session, and ready to receive any communication hemight desire to make, and were instructed to say that the President would speedily communicate with tho Senate in writing. After a few minutes delav Executive Secretarv Pruden appeared in the doorway, and, being introduced by Captain Bassett, after his time-honored fashion, presented the nominations of the Cabinet. Thereupon a motion to proceed to the consideration of uusiness in executive session was maue, and the disappointed crowds were cornSelled to retire from the galleries, and the oors were locked. When they were reopened the Senate had adjourned, and tho business of the day was over. The Cabinet Confirmed. Washington, March 5. Thero was no diminution, but rather an increase to-day of the crowds that have held possession of the Capitol for some days past. Long before noon every seat and standing place in the galleries was tilled, and the corridors and stairs were packed with people anxious to obtain even a peep into tho Senate chamber. When Mr. Ingalls entered and took the seat which he used to occupy be fore being chosen as presiding of ficer, he was greeted with a round of applause from tho spectators, and a like compliment was Eaid to Viee-president m Morton, Tis e came in with the Chaplain. The openiug prayer had allusions to the peaceful and 11 1- J 1 ? A 4 nopeiui cnaugo m xno aumiuisiraiion oi the government. After the reading of yesterday7s journal. Mr. Edmunds reported that the committee which had been appointed yesterday to wuit on the President of tbe United States aud inform him of the meeting of the Senate in extraordinary session, had performed that duty, and had been informed by the President that lie would, early to-day, communicate with the Senate in writing. mt. cocKxeu ouereu a resolution, wnicn went over till to-morrow, for the appoint ment of a committee of live Senators on the methods of business in the executive de partments and tho causes of the delay in the transaction of business. Mr. Morgan I make the point of order that it is not within the competency of the Senate at this extraordinary session to re ceive or act upon that resolution. 1 am onite willing that the point of order shall .stand over till to-morrow, and I hone it "will then be considered aud decided. Mr. Stewart ollered a resolution declaring it to be the sense of the Senate that the business interests of the. country require the purchase by tho Secretary of the Treasury of $4,000,000 worth of silver bullion per ' month for coinage. Mr. Morgan and Mr. Harris made a point of order on the resolution, the latter stating that it was purely legislative in its character. ., ,Mr. Frye I will enter an objection to the consideration, which will carry it over till to-morrow. Mr. Harris There is no objection to that. :Tbe resolution went over. Mr. Blair presented the credentials of Mr. Marston, appointed by the Governor of New Hampshire to till the vacanc3' caused by the termination of Mr. Chandler's term, and by the failure of the Legislature to elect a Senator. Tbe credentials were read. Mr. Vest I shall make no motion to refer those credentials to the committee on privileges and elections, simply because on two occasions, after long discussion, the Senate decided, by a largo majority, the question of the power of the Governor of a btate to make an appointment under such circumstances as surround this case; but my opinion on that question is unchanged. "Y ith my view of the Constitution and of the law, I should object to tho swearing in of this appointee, but I shall not do it. Mr. Hoar I am aware of the great weight of personal anthority that is opposed to the previous judgment of the Sen ate on this question; but. as the Senator from Missouri has stated, the Senate has twice, by large majorities, determined the constitutional question involved hero against tho views of the minority, composed of Senators on both sides of the Chamber, of Inch reputation as constitu tional lawyers, including tho Senator from Missouri Mr. Vest.J The judgment in both instances was by large majorities, and was entirely non-partisan and non-political. Mr. Harris 1 am fully in sympathy with tho view expressed by the Senator from Missouri in regard to admitting to a seat on this lloor an appointee under such cir cumstances as in this case. But I do not seek to delay a moment the action of the Senate in the matter. Mr. Marston thereupon had the oath of office administered to him by the Vicepresident, and took bis seat as Senator. In the meantime. Mr. Pruden. one of the l resident s secretaries, had delivered a message in writing, (being the Cabinet appointments), and on motion of Mr. Hale, the Senate proceeded to consider them with closed doors, lhe cenate promptly confirmed them all and adjourned at 12:45.

LIVES OF GEE AT MEN

All Ecmind Us That We Often Control Oar Own Destinies. But We Are 'ot Always Responsible for the Evils that Wreck Us Physically. "That 'our lives are what we make them is true in a certain degree. I believe that so far as our mental condition is concerned we are partly responsible, but I am certain I would not have made for myself the phys ical condition or life that I have lived for the last four years." said Mr. Russell Eador, of 78 SouthWest street, to a reporter. "I have not the words to express to you the sensations and feeliugs that I have experienced during these troublesome years. My throat has been sore and painful dnring this entire period. It had baffled all treat ment. About eighteen months ago I took a severe cold, which I could not get relieved. My nose was stopped up first on one side and then on the other, and at times I COULD NOT BREATHE through my nose at all, and my throat was so sore that the very air pained me. I had a constant pain in my head, which was most severe just over the eyes and at tho base of tho skulL Thero were singing and MR. RUSSELL EADOR, 73 S. WEST-ST. roaring sounds in my ears, and when I would stoop over my head would swim round and round and black spots float before my eyes. Then I would hawk and spit up great quantities of dirty green or yellow mucus, and I would blow great bloody scabs from my nose. 1 would cough and spit a great deal, especially in tho morning. My sleep was unrefreshing. I would toss about for nours before 1 could get to sleep, and when I got up I would feel worse than the night previous. My tongue was coated and I had a bad taste in my month. It was utterly impossible for me to eat my breakfast, The appetite was gone. The least exertion would COMPLETELY EXHAUST ME, and I would have bad smoothering spells wnen it would seem as tnongh 1 could only breatne ball way down. 1 continued to grow worse until it was necessary forme to give up my work entirely. This discouraged me and I was at a loss to know wnat to do. While looking over the daily paper I saw the statement made by a patient who had been cured by the Binir Treatment. I determined to try it. I have bcn treated three months and I am GLAD TO MAKE THIS STATEMENT and to be ablo to say that I feel entirely well and like a new man. I have not had an ache or pain for weeks. I have attend ed to mv work for the last two months without one hour lost time. My head and tbroat are well and clear. My appetite is splendid and my sleep is sound and refreshing, and I cheerfully and readily sav that I found the lilair Treatment both pleasant and eflicien." Mr. llussell Eador is a cooner at the J.
