AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. An A vo rap Freight Tonnage Moving. The train records ehow that the volume of freight traffic is mlly up to the usual April record, and that it is even a little heavier than in the corresponding week last year. The light movement of empty cars is still a noticeable feature, and is in some measure due to the lighter coal movement. The east-hound through tonnage, however, is light, comparatively speaking. Export traffic does not improve, as expected. The shipments of live stock are light, and hut little grain is moving to tho seaboard. The C, I., St. L. & C. road, through its connection with the Indianapolis & St. Louis, is carrying more than any other route. Increased shipments of live stock are not looked for before the middle of May, but by the 1st of May it is believed that the eastbound shipments of grain for New York and New Lngland, ana for export, as'well. will be heavier. West-bound, the tonnage by nearly all lines is in excess of last year, and is daily improving. It consists largely of merchandise, such as dry goods, fancy notions and heavy groceries, with considerable machinery. "West from here shipments of furniture are again large. North-and-south roads are not doing quite as much as thirty days ago, shipments of ice and grain having fallen off somewhat, yet there is an average April business, and it is carried at better rates than last year. Local business is excellent. Handing material, hard-wood lumber, stave timber in the rough and wagon material is coming in by the train load, and the shipments of stone and brick in here are as heavy as in the boom times of 1870. 1871 and 1872. Outbound there is a good movement, and with the coming of spring weather the volume of local business will increase largely without doubt. The outlook for freight business for some time to come could hardly be woro favorable so far as local traffic is concerned, but, for some weeks to come tho volume of east-bound throutih business 'will depend on the markets. If prices of grain and live stock advance east the shipments will be heavy, but if the markets are depressed they will do light. Below is given the number of cars received and forwarded at Indianapolis in the week ending April 6, as compared with the corresponding weeks in 18S8 and 1887:

Belt road enpnes last week handled 565 car-loads of lire stock, against 716 in the corresponding week of 18S8, a decrease this year of 151 cars. . Personal. Local and State Notes. Frank "Wilkerson, general freight agent fjf the Muskingum alley road, spent tho babbath with friends in this city. The Litchfield car-works are delivering new box cars to the C. 11. & D. at the rate of twelve a day until the contract for 250 is tilled. The executive committee of the Master Car-builders' Association has offered tho secretaryship of the association, mnde vacant by the resignation of M. N. Forney, to J. W. Cloud. Harry Norton, formerly purchasing agent of the I., B. &, W. road, and now holding that position on the Philadelphia & Reading, is West for a few days, calling on oldtime friends. One hundred and twenty-eight trains now arrive and depart at the Central Union l)epot, Cincinnati, daily, eight roads, counting the New York, Lake Erie &, Western, running into that station. In freight circles the report that tho "Soo" line is to advance its freight rates to correspond to those of American roads is looked upon as being very important, as this road has heretofore been one of the great disturbing elements. The consolidation of the Chicago & West Michigan road with the Detroit, Lansing & Northern, is again talked of. This would make another trunk line between Chicago and Detroit, the Lake Shore crossing it at LaPorte, Ina. Ono hundred or more passenger conductors on the Old Colony road have asked that the present style of uniform worn by them be so changed as to come nearer to the reqi rements of a business man. They now wear a genteel tight-fitting frock coat, and look as if wrapped up in corsets. Engine No. 1006, of the Wabash, with engineer Hamilton and fireman Casey, hauling the private cars of Manager Wade and Superintendent Stevens, recently made tho run from Waverly to Peru, twelve miles, at the rate of 70 miles per hour, as indicated by special indicators in both cars. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has decided to build a loop track, which will leave the mainline at Ilackensack Meadows and join the main line again at the Waverly fair grounds, running around Newark. 1 he loop track will be used only by the fast trains, which thoordinancesof Newark force to run through that city at a slow speed. At a conference held in Pittsburg last week, at which most of the general officers of tho Pennsylvania lines, both east and Vest of Pittsburg, wero present, it was decided to make no reduction in wages in the way of economy, but instead, wherever possible, to drop a man and reduce the force until such time as business requires more men. 1 The chief engineer of ono of tho best Eastern Toads, who has been traveling a good deal of late in Indiana and Illinois, says he has heard much about the C, St. L. &. P. and tho J., M. &. I. track, and has been over both, but a trip over tho Vandalia last week convinced him that Colonel Hill had as smooth and solid track as there is ori any part of the Pennsylvania system. George Blanchard, chairman of the Central Traffic Association, has issued the following notice: Geo. H. Daniels having resigned the position of vice-chairman of this association, taking effect April 1. 1889. the business of the passenger department will be conducted by Mr. B. F. Knanp. chief clerk, under mv supervision. All communications relating to tho passenger department should be addressed to the chairman.''' There seems to be but little question that the tiling of articles of association by tho Peru 3t Detroit Railroad Company means that the Detroit L Eel River division of the Wabash system is to be extended to Peru, which would be of great benefit to Peru, as it would be made a division terminal, and would result in the establishing of a more direct Detroit line from Indianapolis to Detroit via Peru and Logansport. It is intimated that the Pennsylvania people are behind the move to extend the Indianapolis, Decatur &, Western road to a connection with the C, B. Jb Q., and when it is completed, either by lease or Fnrchasc, wll control the I., D. W. road, t is no secret that President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania road, is a warm personal friend of President Hammond, of the I., 1). W., and one of his advisers as to tlu extension. General Passenger Agent Lambert, o tho West Shore road, has given notice that tho "West Shore will boycott roads which continue to pay commissions, and it is believed that the New York Central will soon xtako a similar announcement. Tho notice con forms to tho Trunk-line and Central Tfatiic Association s resolution, and is operative after April 1. It is understood that mot of tho roads will give the commission-paji'ing roads fifteen days of grace. j There is good authority for saying that important official chances are nendinc on the Cincinnati, Hamilton fc Dayton l(ues. The health of Vice-president and General Manager aite is such that his ltitie aro too burdensome, and it is proposed to lighten them by appointing Charles Neilion. now general superintendent, to the general managership, he to look after the opening ff the road and iti physical condition. k Mr. Waite will give his attention more to liiiancial matter and proposed extensions of the syutera through friendly alliances, lease or. purchase. Should this nroirraintiie 1

c:xrid out, tho i03itionof general euf )rin-

tendent would be abolished. Mr. Neilson,

as general manager, would appoint division superintendents to look after the respective divisions and to report to him direct. Southern Indiana roads all made very handsome increases in earnings last month over March, 18S8. Tho Ohio &, Mississippi shows an increase of 10.826: thehvansville fc Terre Haute, $4,101; the Kvansville &. lnaianapons, WiJ: tne iairo vincennes, Sl,7W, and the Louisville, Evansvillo &. St. Louis, $700. In the latter case the showing is the more creditable as the business of the Kanawha Dispatch, which all went over that lino from St. Louis, is now coming east over the Indianapolis &. St. Louis road. The unexpected cold weather on thelakes will prevent the lake craft commencing operations as earlv as had been expected, aud the railroads will profit by the delay more or less. At Chicago the grain fleet is ready to start out as soon as a favorable wind blows. The room chartered is for 2,229,53!) bushels of corn, 22C.4O0 bushels of wheat and 57.192 bushels of oats. UI this amount 1,684.000 bushels of corn go to Bntfalo, 204,J9 to Georgian bav, 245.000 to Ogdensburg, sy.COO to Sarnia and Port Huron, and 56,000 to Kingston. I he wheat all goes to uullalo. Of tlin na.tR 22.000 bushels sro to Georgian bay and 37,102 bushels to Sarnia and Port Huron. General Samuel Thomas, who has re cently traveled quito extensively in the West, has returned to New York, and is disposed to boom the prospects for Western roads, in commenting on ma worK oi tne "bears" on some of tho best Western lines. the C., H. & Q. being of the number, he says: l here are rauroaas ana raiiroaas, but Burlington &. Ouincy is a railroad with a big 'K.' It is to Chicago what the New York Central is to New York, and its prop erty and terminals within the city limits of Chicago are worth to-day not less than 15,000,000 in cash, and they do not stand on the books of the company at anything like that licnro. A man must be a bear on the whole country to suppose that this actual value is to be wiped out." The Louisville, New Albany &, Chicago people now nave their right oi way Iroin Howland's Station to Massachusetts avenue, and before tho week closes will belay ing track over it. It is probable that today the arrangements will be perfected by which they will use tho joint tracKs of the liee-line and Lake Lne fc v esttrn roads between Massachusetts avenue and a con nection with tho Union tracks. The com pany proposes to at once build a freight depot, which will be a credit to the road, and the officers of the company will be here on Tuesday or Wednesday to settle on its location. Ground west of Tennessee street has been offered on very reasonable terms, and if satisfactory arrangements can be made with the Union Railway Company to use tne union tracKs to reacn it, rnis location may be chosen. Another piece of ground near several of the present city depots has been offered, but at prices too exorbitant to be really considered. It is highly probable that the nncstion of loca tion will be settled before Wednesday even ing. IN THE BANK OF ENGLAND. . Adventures of a Newspaper Correspondent in Search of Information. London Edition of the New York Herald. There is a building in this city big enough and massive enough to be a fortress, where the windows are blocked with slabs of ponderous stone, where the doors swing noisles&lv on double hinges, and where men witn care on their faces and formidable bundles of papers in their hands jostle each other along dingy corridors from 10 o'clock in tho morning until 4 in tho afternoon. The place has somewhat the air of a prison, very much that of a lunatic asylum. It is really the home of the live pound note the Bank of England. I dropped in there Saturday morning in search of information, and searching for information in tho Lank of England is very much like fishing in tho Seine. The searching and the lishing are most excellent, but when it comes to the finding and the catching well, you can judge for yourself. As I entered the court-yard a solemnfaced individual in a cocked hat and gorgeous apparel was walking back and forth with clock-liKejegularity. He might havo pecn the president of the bank on dress parade; he might have been an escaped cardinal; as a matter of fact he was merely a superior specimen of vibrating llunkeyism. Said I to him in a deferential tone: , 'Can yon tell me, sir, where I may get sonio information about this new issue of one-pound notes?" Tho magnificent gentleman stopped the automatic action of his leg, swung round so as to display to the best advantage his long scarlet cloak and broad black-velvet collar, and then replied: "One-pound notesf We don't have none of them liero. We don't issue nothing less'n livers in this shop," and with that no was going to resume his march, when the gleam of a sixpence attracted his lordly attention, and with a meek "Thank you sir," he added: You'll find all about 'em, sir, by going under that archway, up them steps, turn to the left and down the corridor to the chief cashier's office." Now it was all very fine for a man in rainbow-tinted garments to stand in a courtyard and to discourse familiarly about tho archways, steps and corridors which vary the topography of the Bank of England, but it is quite another thing to follow his directions. After floundering about for some time in this financial labyrinth, however, I found myself in a room furnished in mahogany, with huge iron safes let into the walls. Before a long counter groups of embryo financiers were signing checks and manipulating various other important documents. Attracting the attention of ono of these, I said: "Is there any one here who can give me some information about a new issue of onepound notes, which I understand is contemplated by the bank authorities!" The young gentleman poked his pen behind his ear, smiled in a supercilious way, and withdrew to confer with one of his fellow-clerks. They seemed to find something exceedingly tunny in my request. Finally, the second young gentleman stepped to the counter and said: "what can I do for you. sirf " "Can you give me some information about this now issue of one-pound notes!" Weli, the chief cashier is at luncheon inst now, and, as far as I am concerned, I have not heard anything about any onepound notes, and I hope to goodness I never shall. We have trouble enough as it is taking care ofjjie fivers. But if you want information f this sort go to the chief accountant down stairs in the bank-note library. He will be glad to tell you about it." This seemed encouraging, so I set out in pursuit of the chief accountant and the bank-note library, which I finally discovered down below everything else in the gloomy, musty, catacomb region of tho bank. Here is where the money is kept bags of it, bushels of it, ear-loads of it, all stowed snugly away behind buttresses of granite and walls of steel. I saw the monetary Cerberus who presides over all this treasure, but his lips were sealed as tightly as his locks, and ho sent me orT sharply, as follows: "If you want any information in my dopartment you will have to go first to tho chief secretary and get an authorization." "And where is tho chief secretary!" I inquired, despondingly. "Along the corridor, tnrn to the left, up the steps, turn to the right and then ask." Presently 1 found m3'self in the anteroom of the chief secretary. Two inoffensive-looking guardians were sitting thereon a bench, both exactly alike, with tho same white hair and whiskers, the same smirk, the came brick-colored dress coats and black trousers. When I asked for tho secretary they articulated simultaneously, with a precision of twin phonographs: "Tap on the window. Clerk there." The clerk who responded to the tap looked as if he had never smiled and was incapable of tho slightest sentiment, and yet, strange to sa3 while ho was bearing my message to his superior I saw on the blotting-pad where he had been standing an unfinished sketch of a female face, and a rather pretty face it was, too, which only shows that romance is hard to kill. "This way, please." said the solemn-looking lover, beckoning to me, and rassing into an adjoining room I found myself face to face with the chief secretary. "I called. sir,"said I, rattling off my story with the fluency of a book agent, "to get some information about this new issue of one-pound notes which I understand tho bank is contemplating." "And may I ask," inquired the chief secretary, in a metallic voice, "why you wish thin information?" "For tho New York Herald." I replied. "Well, my dear sir. the fact of the matter is the authorities of the Hank of England are very reluctant to furnish newspapers with information as regards their plans, aud in regard to these- one-pound no tea 1 am una

ble to make any statement without the special authorization from the governor of the bank." "Well, then, sir, what would you advise me to do?" The secretary considered for a moment and then said: "It seems to mo the best thing you can do is to read 'Hankey's Treaties on Banking.' It is a most excellent book, and would prepare you to understand and to write about tho question you wish to discuss." After a few more interviews with various officials, who all advised mo to read "Hankey on Hanking." I at last came back to the young clerk whom I questioned at the outset and he gave me the following candid counsel: "My advice to you is to go ahead and write up these one-pound notes from your imagination. You Know quite as much about it as any of us do, and so there will be nobody to contradict you Besides that, what you will write in this way is sure to be ten times as interesting as the combined opinions of the Chancellor of tho Exchequer, tho governor of the bank, the chief cashier, the chief secretary, the chief accountant and all the rest of them boiled down together. Thats my advice." Wrong Street Named In the Bill. To the EtUtor of the Indianapolis Journal: In your issue of to-day, under the abovo head-line appears the statement that House Bill 515, opening a street through the State grounds south of the Women's Reformatory, had failed in its purpose by opening Ohio street instead of New York street, as was the intention of the bill. Being the author of the bill, as well as having enrolled the same after its linal passage, I feel competent to speak as to its intention, and desire to say that tho object of the bill is to open a street at the south side of the grounds inclosed by the iron fence surrounding the Kefonnatory buildings. The provision of tho bill is that the roadway or street "commence at a point on tho east line of 6aid land 1,1C6 feet south of the northeast corner thereof, in the middle of a street running from thence east, known as East Ohio street, and running thence west parallel with the north line to the west line of said land." Had your informant consulted a man ho would havo learned that

Ohio street east of the State lands is more than a square north of Ohio street west of said land. The survey set out in tho bill was taken from tho records of Marion county, and locates the center of tho roadway on or near the iron fence south of tho Woman's Reformatory. S. M. Bruce. Indianapolis, April C. Victoria Morosinl's Husband In Clover. New York Special. Ernest Schilling, husband of Victoria Morosini, has just been discovered in Astoria. Ho has concealed his identity from his neighbors, who know him only as John Wilson. Altogether, Mr. Schilling seems to be much better off than when Mrs. Moro8ini-Schilling was making him notorious. He earns good wages as a housepainter, ho says, and is a member of several yachting, hunting and fishing clubs. Ho owns a house and a catboat. whereas ho owned nothing at all when his wife was with him. He thinks Mrs. Schilling loves him still, though he is rather anxious to know who has supported her since sho abandoned him, three years ago. Mr. Schilling is sure he can lick the man who says that he relinquished Mrs. Schilling for 3,000 of banker Morosini s money. Keal Estate Transfers.
