AFFAIRS OF THE, RAILWAYS. The Shaky Interstate Association. Chicago, July 22. In regard to the fcrlsis in th affairs of the Interstatecommcrco Kailtray Association, the Times lo-morrow -will say: It does not eeem probable that the farce caH be much longer continued. Perhaps if chair: taan Walker had not been guaranteed his ealary for three years there -would be a colJapse of the whole institution, but. as it is, there is a reluctanco to give up the Jiopo that somo beuetit may yet be derived from it. It is stated upon pretty good authority that the Wisconsin Central -will give notice of withdrawal at tho next meeting, rind, if it does, tho other Northwestern Jines are prettv sure to follow. Unlike tho ether companies, the Wisconsin Central vill be relieved from all liabilities when it retires from the association. One of the conditions on which it sitrnod tho agreement was that it would not be reonired to "Jpay any part of the expenses of the asoxiation after its withdrawal therefrom. Personal and General Notes. One-way rates to all Colorado points have 1een reduced nearly $1 tho reduction to lake eiiect to-day. The C, H. &, D. had a good-sized party out. for Petoskey yesterday morning. They 4?o by boat from Detroit. W. M. Greene, ar-sistnnt to President InJails, of the Iiig Four lines, has gone to the 'acitic slope for a stay of a month or more -combining business with pleasure. , The Bee-line excursion to Niagara Falls, advertised for Aug. 6, has been withdrawn. The prospects still favor a largo patronage rf the other excursions to that point. The Northern Pacific management ha3 'instructed its agents everywhere not to antagonize in any way any of tho Chicago or fct. Paul lines, but to work in perfect hartaony with them. i C. M. Dickson, train-dispatcher of the Celt road, and E. A. Zion, son of the assistant train-dispatcher, who have been spending some time at the Hot Springs, returned yesterday, much improved in health. i Tho C. II. &, D. is still nt work improving its side-tracks between Indianapolis and Hamilton. It has put in, recently, fonr ?iow side-tracks of large capacity at passing points, and several of shorter length. , L. M. Smith, for years assistant division 'imnerintendent of the Wabash railway.

having served his connection with that .road, goes to Boston to accept a similar place with fhe Boston & Maine Eastern railroad. L. A. Garner, who has been division superintendent of the American Express Uoinpany for Iowa and Nebraska, has been appointed general superintendent for Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, with headquarters at Omaha, Neb. The principal business with the passenger trains yesterday was the hauling of militiamen to the encampment. The troops went from the city to the camp at Armstrong's grove via tho Big Four. Up to 6 o'clock last evening the road had carried ont about 1,700 men. The Belt road transferred, during tho week ending July 20, 11,955 cars, against i30,34$ in the corresponding week in an increase of 1,607. During the sanio time the road handled S0 car-loads of live ifetock. against 0. for the like period in 1S88 increase, 105 cars. Messrs. Ungcr, Smithers & Co., of 'New York, announced ttfeir readiness to receive applications at 83 and accrued interest for an issue of $1,500,000 of iirst mortgage four-per-cent. on-hundred-vcar cold bonds of tho Kentucky Central. This line extends from Covington. Ky.. to Lexington, Ky., and, with its branches, has a total mileage of 253.81. The Pittsburg, Cincinnati Sc St. Louis Railway Company has tiled a complaint rith the Interstate-commerce Commission nt Washington against the Baltimore & Ohio Railway Company, alleging that the . latter company has violated the law in naming a rate of two cents' per mile for theatrical companies and other parties of ten or more traveling together. , In the Fitchburg repair shops a novel 'plan of moving a locomotive is employed. when an engine is ready to leave the shop, instead of tiring it up the boiler is charged "with air at about eighty pounds pressure ff rum an old locomotive air-pump mounted , "in a convenient place against the wall, having a hose connection to tho boiler. With the above pressure the engine can bo run out of the shop and around to its stall in tho round-house. , The passenger agents held a meeting here yesterday to consider rates to excursionists on the occasion of the laying of the cornerstone of the soldiers' and sailors' monnnent. No definite conclusion was reached. The Pennsylvania and Bee-line favored a rate of one-half fare for all distances up to Crt 2-3 miles, continuing the 2 rate up to one hundred miles, with a cent-a-mile rate beyond the latter distance. The other lines wanted to lix the rate at half-fare for 33 1-3 miles, carrying the $1 rate up to fifty miles, and conceding the one-cent rate for all distances beyond that. Tho rate question will be definitely decided within a few days. It is understood that the management of i tho Mexican Central Kail way Company litis negotiated the sale of all the securities 'required to complete the Tampico division, and all tho money except $1,200,000 has been received from abroad. All of the proceeds . of the first mortgage fives have likewise .been received and applied in part to the redemption of the coupon notes, as per notice of. the company, and in part to the acquirement for cancellation by purchase of rising $800,000 debenture tens. Less than $1,700,000 of the debenture tens remain outstanding, and the money to retire these lias been deposited as a special fund lor the purpose. By the completion of the Georgia Pacific road the Richmond it Danville company now control a continuous line from Washington, D. C, to Greenville, Miss., on the Mississippi" river, a distance of over 1,100 miles. The Georgia Pacific, which expends from Atlanta. Ga., to Greenville, 460 miles, has been for several years under construction, encountering much delay, but it now has a continuous line from the capital of Georgia nearly duo west across the Mates of Alabama and Mississippi to the river by which it is brought into communication with tho Mississippi valley. Tho wisdom of tho Kichmond &, Danville management in securing and pushing to completion this long stretch of road will doubtless bo proved by tho result. This north-and-south trunk liue, known as the Piedmount Air-line, comprises tftU25 miles of railroad. A dispatch from Eu Claire, Wis., says: 4N. C. Foster, president of the gault bte. Marie Southwestern, and James Mclnire, left here for the East. It is learned Jhat their mission is to see Henry Villard. 1 be Sault fcte. Mario fc Southwestern railroad at present consists of about twentynrnes of road running throngh Fairchild to Osseo, Trempealeau county. About twenty-five miles more has been graded. he entire line as contemplated will extend rom. KlHnelander, on the Minneapolis, Sault Ste. Marie Atlantic, to Sioux City and Council MutT. a distance of about 5'i5 mile.s. It will be tho shortest route from the Missouri to the Eastern seaboard, and it is expected to catch most of the, lumber freight from northern Wisconsin to tho Southwest. It is backed by the Canadian Pacific, and money enough has been secured . to make its construction a certainty. The Sorposo of the conference with Villard is ot known." Another revolutionary locomotive has been devised. It is to have two boiler, one above the other, and engine and tender are to be incased in a shell of thin iron, tapering off to a point in front, the wholo machine being seventy-five fret long and weighing in working order nine-ty-ouo and a half tons. Thus it would be twenty-two feet longer and twelve tons heavitr than the biggest European locomotive yet turned out. It is to have two pairs of cylinders fifteen and three-fourths by nineteen and a half inches and four coupled driving wheels nine leet nine and a half inches in diameter, or more than twice the size of our largo passenger engine drivers. Great power and great speed are both claimed far this novel combination of parts and proportions, the ordinary gait being modestly placed at seventy-five miles an hour, but this being capable of increase to ninety-two niilen per hour. This engine has been patented i? Vianro !v a Hungarian engineer uained M. Ala Besthy. Railway Age. A New York correspondent says it would not be at all Mirprising should Gould's scheme of a grand railwav trust soon come to pa3s. As the Interst;itc-comnierco Association was, according to Gould, only a temporary makeshift, ho it is proposed now to form a provisional trust, to see bow it will work, ascertain tho feeling of the people in the granger States toward it, and

obtain an inkling as to the character of legislation such a movement may provoke. The greatest opposition is expected to come from Iowa. Missouri, Nebraska. Kansas and Wisconsin. There are twenty-two roads in the West which tho schemers are anxious to draw into the plan, but it is considered doubtful if that many can be found to favor it, as there aro some as much disposed to act independently as the terrible Alton. Still, the plans are beine matured in New York for the formation of the trust, tho outline of which is to be accompanied by an elaborate statement meant to convince the anti-monopolist and granger that it will not be such a terrible thing after all. An automatic electrical signal, the invention of J. S. Capers, chief dispatcher of the Louisville &, Nashville railroad, has been tested on the Pontchartrain road, and is thus described by the New Orleans TimesDemocrat: This signal, which is said to be much quicker in Hh action than the present air whistle, consists of a bell and battery placed in the cab of the locomotive, with wires strung underneath the coaches, at each end of which connection is made Uy an automatic coupler. A circuit closer is placed in one end of each coach, to which a small bell-cord, extending from the circuitcloser to the other end of the coach, is fastened. When the conductor desires to convey a signal to the engineer he merely touches the cord, which has the effect of closing the circuit, when the electric current, being instantly carried to the engine, sounds the belL In equipping freight engines with this contrivance, for which it is principally intended, a bell is placed in both the engine and the caboose. Should the train part while in motion, the circuit is closed at each coupler where parted, which has the enect of sounding both bells simultaneously. The engineer and conductor are by these means promptly notified of the mishap, thereby saving delays and averting a probable smash-up. The Denver News says: Jay Gould had much to dowiththo withdrawal of the Forth Worth system from the Interstaterailway Association. Rumor says that if General Dodge will talk it would be shown that tho agreement made last autumn between the Bricc-Tbomas party and Jay Gould was at the bottom of all the Western railroad troubles. Just what tho agreement was no body is able to say positively, but the purchases of Kichmond Terminal stock by Gould, and the fact that tho St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas is to be the outlet for Gould's Southwestern freight, has left no doubt in the minds of tho knowing ones that the wizard is at the bottom of tho trouble. The Fort Worth being bottled up in the association could not meet the underhand work that was beine prosecuted by men having interest in the "Southwest, so it dropped out of the association, and in the future will jpaddle its own canoe, and unless all signs fail it will bo paddling its own canoe in the waters of the Gulf, carried there over its own lines. It is even said that a deal is on hand with tho Union Pacific and the Fort Worth allied to give tho Southern Pacific a tussle for business from the coast. The Fort Worth fc Denver City is even now, through its president, Morgan Jones, endeavoring to capture one of its Gulf connections, and when tho scheme is consummated the Fort Worth system from Denver through direct to tho Gulf will be a power in the Western firmament of rails aud cross-ties.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Tale Told by Postal Receipts. To tbe Editor ot the Indianapolis Journal: The Democratic papers and party persist in keeping prominently before the country the fact that their theories of the tarill' question are the only ones which can bring prosperity and plenty to our people. As the thermometer correctly indicates the tempcraturo either in winter or summer, so, I take it, our postal service with equal exactness indicates the trade conditions and intelligence of the different sections of our country. Not long since I came into possession of a few facts relating to the receipts of the postal service in the trade centers of our land, which seem to me to be one of the most pointed object lessons that ever camo under my personal observation. Tho salaries of all presidential postoflices for this year were recently adjusted on the basis of the gross receipts of these offices for the fiscal year ending March 31, 18S9. These receipts aro as follows for the year: Gross receipts of all presidential postoffices $41,349,790 Gross receipts of all presidential post- x otlices In Republican States and Territories.... 32,779,831 Gross receipts of all presidential postoffices In leuiocratio States and Territories 8,509,959 Gross receipt of nil presidential postoffices in States lately in rebellion. 3,346,552 Add to this sum the receipts in States of Delaware and Kentucky and Territory of Arizona 640,849 And we have a total from these' States and Territories, for tho year ending March 31, 1889, of 3,987,400 Whilewtlio gross receipts from the same sources for that year in one .Republican State Illinois were $3,993,171, an excess of $4,771 over and above the gross receipts of ail the presidential postoflices in the States lately in rebellion. No argument can be formulated that can add force to this statement. The figures quoted are official, and are the best possible data from which to learn the volume of trade, transacted, aud are also the best index of the energy and intelligence of the different sections of our country. I, therefore, respectfully submit that, when from this official source we learn that one Republican State Illinoisexceeds in gross receipts from presidential postoilices the gross receipts from the same source of all the South, it follows that the leaders of that section know but very little about tho volume of trade transacted in the great industrial section of tho Union or what causes inliuence it either for good or evil. The sum 32.779,831, the gross receipts of the presidential postofiices in tho liepublican States and Territories vs. the sum of $3,509,959, the gross receipts of tho presidential postoflices in the Democratic States and Territories of the Union for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1S89. tells the whole story of the volume of business transacted and of tho enterprise and intelligence of the people of these sections in language so plain that no man, woman or child can fail to understand it. The Kepublican party stands for progress in every avenue of our civilization, while the Democratic party, with its face to the rear, stands across every highway of progress, and expends its force in advocating measures replete with the errors growing out of tho passions and prejudices of the past. J. 13. ClIEADLE. Frankfort, Ind., July 22. The Filthy Streets. To the Editor ot the Indianapolis Journal: Why are our streets allowed to become so filthy f Is the city too poor to pay for cleaning themf If so, why not tax property-owners a sum sufficient to havo the streets put in a healthy condition? It may cost citizens fourfold for medical aid what it would cost to observe a few sanitary laws now. Later on we may be visited by an epidemic, and what then? Kemember an ounce of preventive is worth more than a pound of cure. There have been a favored tew whose gutters have been scraped. Why this discrimination? One side of a square cleaned, and tho other sido left in gnch a condition that one cannot reach the street, except at the crossings. Perhaps the Council might be induced to devote a few moments of their valuable time to this important topic. Natural gas and streetrailway ollicers can take care of themselves awhile, at least.

THE VILLAGE Under a spreading chestnut tree The village blacksmith stands, And in a brimming basin he Would wash his brawny hands; But something else than water clean His sooty palm demands. Week in, week out, from morn till night, He might have rubbed, I trow, Had I not given him a cake Of Ivory Soap, when, lo ! Full soon those honest hands of his Were spotless as the snow.

A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivory';" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar jud remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for 11 Ivory " Soap and insist upon getting it. Copyright, 1856, by Procter & Gamble.
