AFFAIRS OF HIE RAILWAYS. Opposing the Ilee-Line-BIg Four Deal. Cleveland is disturbed over the prospect that the general officers of the Bee-lino, through the proposed consolidation. with the Big Four, will be removed to Cincinnati, and opposition, headed by Judgo Burke, is manifesting itself among the Beeline stockkolders, against the confirmation xf the consolidation. At the recent meeting in New York, Judge Burke, as one of the Bee-line directors, voted against the proposed deal. Afterwards, in an interview with a reporter of the Cleveland Leader, he said: "If the consolidation occurs I am firmly convinced that the holders of Bee-line stock will not receive a dividend for ten years. It is clearly to their interest to oppose the union. They give everything and get nothing. They are told in New York that it will be a good thing for them, but if they act on that advice they will rind when it is everlastingly too late that they have made a grave mistake. I do not think there is any intention on the part of any one to willfully deceive thera. but I am profoundly convinced that it will bo to their interest to oppose the consolidation. Bee-line stock today is intrinsically more valuable than Big Four stock, vet the latter is quoted way above the Bee-line. The Big Four has been given all the preferred stock. This preference is based on the earnings of the road for several years past. It is unjust.

because the Big 1 onr has made its recent record only because its rates chanced to be well maintained during this perio l. In the long run the Bee-line is a better dividendearning road th.n the Big Four. In addi- . tion to the expenditures that must be constantly made in making additions to equipment, I do not believe the system can earn any more than the half million dollars interest on the Big Four preferred stock. Consequently the Bee-line stockholders will get nothing. "I am opposed to the consolidation, first, because there are no business reasons for it The interests of the roads are diverse, and I cannot see that either will be bene- ' rited by the union. Second, because the Bee-line stockholders get decidedly the worse of the bargain. Third, because the scheme was originated by the owners of the worthless Cairo, Vincennes &. Chicago road, in order to dispose of it profitably. Fourth, because it js clearly illegal. The contract of consolidation provides that no charges can be placed on the property without the written consent of the preferred Big Four stock. This practically destroys the rights of the common stock vested in it by law and virtually gives control of the property to the minority preferred stock. The consolidation is also illegal because there is not that continued mutual traffic interest which the law contemplates. I have no donbt that if the case is presented to the Supreme Court the deal will be pronounced illegal. Will it be taken into the courts? That I am not prepared to say. There is not a great deal of stock held here in Ohio. Many illegal consolidations are effected simply because no ono judicially questions their legality. It may be so -with this one." It is hardly necessary to state that the radical opinion held by Judge Burke is not now largely entertained by a majority of the stockholders, but what the future may develop in the matter is uncertain. To outsiders it certainly looks as if the Bee-line would arouse the bad blood of the Vanderbilts. and they could do more mischief for the Bee-line than at first thought might be exnected. The Bee-lino is at the mercv of the Vanderbilt lines east of Cleveland, as its eastern outlet, and unpleasant traffic relations would work very unfavorably to the Bee-line. One-TVaj Party Kates Illegal. Pittsburg, April 3. Soon after the passage of the amendments to the insterstatecommerce law, one-way party rates, at a reduction below the single-trip rate, were withdrawn by the general passenger agent west of Pittsburg, under a decision of General Counsel Brooks that they were unlawful. It now transpires that this decision and action have been sustained by the Interstate-commerce Commission, who, on March 27 last, filed a memorandum to the effect that the practice of granting such rates is vicious in conception and demoralizing in its effects, necessarily working a discrimination against the single passenger, who, from surrounding circumstances, cannot take advantage of the party rate. This decision rhust necessarily . cause the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore Sc Ohio companies to withdraw their oneway party rates, which were announced About the same time that similar rates were withdrawn by the Pennslvania lines west of Pittsburg. New York, April 3. The trunk-line passenger agents to-day decided to ask the Interstate-commerce Commission if ''convention rates" are illegal under the recent . mling in regard to "party rates." They expect a negative decision, as an affirmative one would make the law very unpopular. Looks Like He Means to Retire. Baltimore, April 8. It looks as though Colonel Orland Smith, vice-president of the Baltimore & Ohio, intended soon to retire from the service, as, late last evening, President Mayer issued the following circular and directed that a copy be sent to each office on the Baltimore & Ohio line: The second vice-president, Mr. Thomas M. Kin, "will hare charge of all questions pertaining to' the physical and operating branches of the company's service, and such other duties as may from time to time be assigned him by the president. Reports heretofore sent to the vicepresident, Colonel Orland Smith, on such subjects will, on and after April 1, 1889, be referred to the second vice-president. Mr. King to-day established his headquarters in the offices heretofore occupied by Vice-president Smith, and the secretaries and clerks of the latter are occupying the same positions with Mr. King. General mith, accompanied by Mrs. Smith, left for Cincinnati to-day. Wholesale Discharge of Passenger Conductors Bradford, Pa., April 3. A sensation was created in railroad circles, to-day, by the removal of all tho passenger conductors on the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg division of the Buflalo. Rochester Sc. Pittsburg railroad. The sweep, it is rumored, was a thorough one. The conductors yesterday received polite letters asking them to resign, and to-day their resignations came in. Freight conductors will bo promoted to passenger trains. General Superintendent Bartlett returned from Rochester last night. Ho said to a reporter: I have just returned - from a long iournev. and am too tired to talk." The local officials do not have any thing at all to say about the wholesale slaughter of conductors. t The American midland, gpecial to the Indianapolis Journal. Fort Wayne, Ind.. April 8. A meeting of the stockholders of the Ohio, Indiana Sc Missouri River and the "Mahoning' rail roads met here to-dav and effected the final consolidation of tho two divisions, under iiicuauioui AiuriiUHU .muiami JVUUWIIY. ri'Ll : l ji, i i . i ma now railway win do incorporated tomorrow under the laws of Ohio and In diana. "William Thorp, of New York, pre sided at ino meeting. Personal, Local and State Notes. It is stated that no newsboy has everbcen killed on a passenger train on any road in the united Mates. The movement to withdraw from sale second-class tickets iu this territory has proven a signal iauure. President Norton, of the Louisville Sc Nashville road, is in tho West this week . looking over the property. J. E. Child, the new assistant general manager of the Lake Shore road, assumes the duties of the position on Monday next. There is a stronir nrobabilitv that tlio Louisville A Nashville people will secure coutrol of the roads running into Hender son, ky. E. C Winatanley has been appointed genl .i...

S:irpent. perioral freight agent of tliM Kansas City, Port Scott Sc. Memphis road, has been promoted to the position of general tramc manager. The C, St. L. Sc P. and tho T., St. L. Si K. C. railroad companies are buildiuz a belt line at Marion by which tho tracks of the two roads will be connected. A Nickel-plate ticket iiirciit. at Buffalo. drew down upon him the censure of the trunk-lino commissioner for currying on

opera company from Buffalo to Chicago on Sunday at second-class rates, which is contrary to the agreement between the leading roads. ' Samuel Stohr, formerly; general Eastern passenger agent of tho Texas Pacilic, has been appointed general Eastern agent of the Chicago, St. Paul Sc. Kansas City road. Steel rail manufacturers are drawing some comfort from the prospects that there is to be increased railroad building in the East, and north of tho Ohio river, in the near future. A. P. Ryan, a ticket agent on the West Shore road, has applied for letters patent on a railroad pas. There are features about it that make tho pass actually not transferable. The Indianapolis Sc. St. Louis road ;s turning over to tne C, I.. St. L. Sc C. at this point daily forty to fifty loaded cars to go east over the Chesapeake Sc Ohio road. This traffic alliance promises good results. The Terre Haute Sc Indianapolis company expended in improvement to its motive power on the T. II. Sc L. proper, in the year 1888, 229,8o4.4fl. and in improvements to its passenger and freight equipment on this division $1S3J04.W. The Pennsylvania people will expend on the Indianapolis division but little money this year in the way of improvement to the road-bed, intending to cut down the expenses in that direction this year on this one division, $25,000. The Chicago Railroad Association on Tuesday elected tho following officers: F. C. Donald, president; A. V.H. Carpenter, vicft-nresident: A. V. McMillian. Recretarv:

executive committee, E. J, McConnick, (ieo. bmith and Y . E. Davis. A few months ago A. F. Prahn. an em ploye at the Brightwood shops, invented a switch lamp which works so satisfactorily that the Bee-line officials have adopted it for their switches on the whole svstem. The Lake Erie Sc Western has also adopted it. Everv nickel counts, is an axiom which the express companies are now forcftig on the attention of their agents. The Uuited States Express Company is placing cards in their offices bearing the following inscription: "Five cents underbilling daily in all tho offices of this comnanv makes a loss in a year of $50,000 to this company." Tho representatives of tho coal-carrvine roads, after a long meetintr at New York. yesterday, reduced the tolls 10 cents per ton to tidewater, and 25 cents to Buffalo, on ticuigu cum; u ccuis uu if vumiug, iu utur water; and 20 cents on Buckwheat to tide water. Tho sales agents meet next week to consider the matter of changing their schedules. Asa Kellogg, district passenger agent of the Southern Pacific road, who committed suicide at St. Louis . on Sunday, was buried at Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, yes terday. 1 he U., 11. fc U. furnished a special train to enable his friends in railroad circles to witness tho burial, and a large number of passenger men availed them selves of the privilege. Some railroad officials are very much worried because the interstate commision has not taken more active steps in tho stopping of the payment of commisions by certain roads. The views of the commision. however, are very well known, but unless something is-done before long some of tho roaaA will return to paying commisions rather than see their business drifting away from them. President Ingalls, of the Chesapeake Sc Ohio, has ordered a general change in the divisions of the road. Charlestonjis to bo made the end of the first passenger division from Cincinnati, and Russell, opposite lronton, the end of the freight division. ine entire mam line is to be laid with a heavier steel rail, and the lighter rail is to be used in putting in side-tracts to accom modate the expected increase in business. It is stated that there is a good deal of feeling at Cleveland over the prospects that the general olhces of the JJeo-lino will be removed to Cincinnati. If they are re moved at all Cleveland people say that In dianapolis would be far the most preferable piace lor their location, lhe trouble is that many of tho officials and clerks in tho offices of the Bee-line at Cleveland have been employed in them for years, and havo secured pleasant homes in many instances, which they dislike to leave. Two thousand meu and six construction trains are employed on the west end of the Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City road in making the preparations to change the gauge next month. The whole line, from Toledo to St. Louis. 450 miles, will then be standard gauge and the track in good condition physically, as in widening the guage the work nas been done in a thorough man ner. The 320 miles of standard-gauge road now operated is getting solid and smooth, and the road will, within the next sixty days, be in good shape to do business. The Ohio, Indiana Sc Missouri Valley and thertew lork, Mahoning Ac Western rail roads have been consolidated under the name of the American Midland. Whether sailing under a new title will better the prospects of the N. Y., M. Sc W. is yet to be demonstrated. An unfortunate name has certainly been selected. There is no road in this country which in part bears the name of Midland which has been a success. The Illinois Midland, the Indiana Midland. the Jersey Midland, and a half dozen other roads of like title havo gone to the wall linancially. A few mornings ago, on the statement of one of the district passenger agents of the Union Pacific road, the Journal said that the Union Facihc had established a line to Tacoma and other extreme Northwestern points. Tho item seems to have stirred up uenerai rassenger Agent t ee, or the North ern Pacitic, and he telegraphed Mr. Janowitz, district passenger agent in this territory, to tell tho Journal .that the Union Pacific has no right to sell tickets to points on or reached via the Northern Pacific coast division. Baggage will not be allowed to go through, and neither will the tickets be honored. Tho Central Traffic Association announces that reduced rates, from all points in its territory, win be granted to persons attend ing the following meetings: Woman's Christian lemperance Union convention, at isorth Manchester, lnd., April 9 and 10: New Albany Presbytery and Missionary Society, at Seymour.

All new equipments are charged in as operat ing expenses. General Manager Lane, of the Georgia Southern Sc. Florida road, has offered a number of yearly premiums to traiumcn. as follows.

APRIL MAGAZINES. In the Forum for April, Prof. Georgo P.

Fisher, of Yale, replies ' to Cardinal Manning recent attack on the public-school system, "It is," he says, "a thousand pities that a contest of this nature should arise. What may be termed the traditional and unintelligent hostility to tho Roman Catholic religion has been passing away from the minds of educated people in this coun try. There has been a growing tendency to appreciate what the Church of Rome has done, and is doine, in behalf of our common Christianity and of all the interests of so ciety which good men have at heart. Bnt if the battle for our free, secular schools must come, it is a consolation to reflect that the contest is one in which all civilized nations, Roman Catholic or Protestant, have a share. Our allies are in all enlightened lands. It is an additional comfort to know that there is no real dancer of defeat. The only hope of tho adversary must lie in tho desire of politicians to catch votes; and these will soon learn, if they do not know by instinct, that in taking wrong ground that a tendency of the materialistic philosophy of the times is to deidealize life, and that art. beina a reflex of man's conception of life, is vulgarized accordingly.

Other subjects discussed are: 'Signs of Impending Kevolution," by Dr. Bunts: Reclaimiu2 the Western Deserts." by Senator W. M. Stewart; "The Kiso of lioulanger," by Guillaume C. lener, and "Impediments to Our Foreizn Commerce." by Darius Lyman. The topics discussed in the North Ameri can Review for April are, as usual, of current interest. Senator Allison talks of the tariff and of an extra session of Congress. He is of the opiuion that if an extra session is called it shouid not bo before the middle or the last of October. Colonel Ingersoll comes to the support of Professor lluxley in his position on agnosticism, as indicated in the recent article in the Nineteenth Cen tury. Ex-Senator Chace, of Rhode Island, argues in favor of an increase of salaries to Congressmen. Eugene Schuyler writes of "American Marriages Abroad." Rev. Lyman Abbott points out the differences between the underlying principles and methods of Christianity and those of Socialism. Other contributions are "Feasabilitv of JErostation," by Karl Mind; 'In Josephine's Garden," by Gail Hamilton; lhe Debut of a Dramatist7 by Dion Boncicault; "The Chinese Must Stay,', by Yan Fhon Lee. and "Idiosyncracies of Alcohol," by W. S. Searle, M. D. Psychological problems are subjects of discussion for several contributors to Popular Science Monthly for April. In tho "Psychology of Spiritualism" Professor Jastrow gives convincing proof of tho fraudulent character of so-called spiritual 1 -A A.

Other papers are "Tho Chemical Elements," "Domestication of tho Buffalo," "Zoological Gardens," "On tho Causes of Variation," "Curiosities of Natural Gas," and "Plants in Witchcraft." The Century for April is a Washington number. It opens with an account of "Tho Inauguration of Washington," by Clarence Winthrop Bowen. This is followed by "Washington at Mount Vernon After the Revolution" and "Washington in New York in 1780," both by Mrs. Burton Harrison. All these articles are profusely illustrated. There is also a paper on "Original Portraits ot Washington," oy unanes iienry Jlart. The centennial feature is completed by a scholarly paper by John Bach McMaster on "A Century of Constitutional Interpretation." Kcnnan's article on "The Russian Police," the Lincoln history, two or three short stories, a discussion of the Samoan question by George H. Bates, and the usual editorial departments complete tho number. A feature of interest in tho April Wide awake is an account of the boyhood of John Burroughs, written by himself. "Sir Walter Raleigh and tho Potato" is the title of an historical article which tells ot the part taken by that noble Englishman in the development of the American colonies. The stories, short and long, are of more than usual interest.

The fashion plates in Oscar Wilde's Woman's Wrorld are so artistic that they attract the eye independently of the style of gowns and bonnets represented, and in this respect aro a novelty.

Among tho interesting contributions to tho April number aro "Holiday Excursions in Foreign Literature," "Women on Horseback" and "Life in a Convent." Casscll & Co., New lork. Among the reprints in tho April Eclectic aro Prof. Huxley's paper on "Agnosticism" and a theological dialogue, entitled, "The New Reformation," both from the NinoA A 1 A.

Outing grows constantly more attractive to the sportsman and lover of outdoor pleasures. An illustrated paper on "Clum ber Spaniels' opens the April number. Other contributions arc: "A Wheelman's i atalities," "Evolution of Form in College ltowine," "Amateur I'hotocraphy," "Big game Hunting in the Wild West," "lroutlishmg in the Gros Hois, in Canada." A number of poems and a 6tory or two make up an interesting numuer. In the April Ovcrlaud Lieutenant Qualtrough has a strong article on "Our Naval Necessities," the necessities described hav ing reference chietly to the coast defenses of California. A social problem is dis cussed by Charles A. Murdock, under the head of "Uhild-saving." A numuer of wellwritten sketches, and stories, and articles of local interest make up an interesting numuer. Tho April Magazino of American History, like the March number, is devoted largely to Washington and his times. Other contributions are the "Uoraance of Adclo llu.go." 'CommerrM and the Constitution."
