AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Trouble In Selecting a Chairman. Chicago. Sept. 5. The dead-lock over tho chairmanship of the Western States' Passengor Association came to a climax today. When the general managers of the various roads belonging to the organization assembled this morning, the choice of W.-H. Newman as temporary successor to Chairman John N. Abbott was annulled by the strenuous objections of General Manager St. John, of the Kock Island. Then tne proposition wa3 made that Mr. Abbott should continue as temporary chairman until such timo as his successor could be elected. Had this been done, it would have given Mr. Abbott an opportunity to resign and turn over his office in a regular manner to whomsoever might be chosen to iill the place. But It was not done. There seemed to bo a determination on tho rart of some of the members to humiliato the exchairman to tho last possible degree, and the proposition was dogiir dly voted down. It was argued that by the resolution just adopted. Mr. Abbott teased to have any connection whatever with the Western States Passenger Association, and that tho business before the meeting was tho election of a chairman. The balloting, which had already lasted over a day," was then resumed. Mr. Abbott's friends stood by him throngh several ballots, but after a while the Rock Island was left practically alone in his support. The Kock Island, however, remained steadfast, effectually preventing the requisite unanimous voto for any of tho several other candidates proposed. Finally, this afternoon, it was decided to abandon the attempt to elect a chairman nntil a future date, and the duties of the office were turned over to Thomas Thompson, chief clerk in Mr. Abbott's oflice, who was elected secretary, in charge, until further notice. The meeting then adjourned, subject to the call of the presiding ofiicer. J. F. Tucker. While the balloting was in progress some one suggested to Mr. Abbott that he put an end to the agony by sending his resignation to the meeting. This Mr. Abbott emphatically declined to do. He had nothing to resign. He had been thrown out without a moment's warning, for what reason he did not know. Tho chance to resign honorably had been denied him, aud his self-respect would not permit him to cringmgly sanction the action of the meeting by assuming any portion of tho responsibility attached to it. The managers had chosen to employ the most unfair methods to humilitate him. They had done their worst, and ho had nothing to gain by resigning after the oflice had been taken out of his haniU. The Times says: "There are those who know the cause of Mr. Abbott's treatment. Last May.the Interstate-commerce Commission summoned before it at Washington all the passenger otlicials and association chairmen in the country for tho purpose of finding out if the law was being complied w ith. Among the many who were called upon to testify before the commission was Chairman Abbott. It came out that members of the Western States Passenger Association had employed private detectives to ferret out irregularities and violations of the rules of the association, and report all such cases to the chairman. Iy this means Mr. Abbott had come in possession of much information concerning secret manipulations of passenger rates, collusion with scalpers, etc., all of which he was compelled to reveal to the commission when put under oath. A number of the Western foads were thus placed in a bad light, and while a few had tho backbone to take their medicine, others have been patiently waiting the opportunity to punish Mr. Abbott for daring to tell the truth. Moreover, they professed the greatest friendship for him until the hour came to strike."

Persoual, Local and General Notes. William McXultj, who, seven years ago, was a section hand on the Wabash, ha3 just been appointed roadmaster of a Texas road. The . freight committco of the Central Traffic Association will convene in Chicago. Sept. 10, to talk over rate and classification matters. A few days will decide whether the Mackev syndicate will take the Cincinnati, Wabash V. Michigan road, the option expiring on Sept. 12. Robert Bice, general superintendent of the liig Four system, is constantlj' on the alert and is giving tho greatest satisfaction to his superior olbcers. Fred O'Haver has been appointed freight and ticket agent of the Vandalia at Sand Creek, which is becoming ono of tho Vandalia's good paying stations. Austin Corbin is delaying his trip to Kuropo for the purpose, it is believed, of relieving himself of tho Ohio, Indiana & Western before his departure. A. J. Spurr has been appointed to represent the passenger department of the Chicago, Burlington &, Quincy road in central Ohio, vice II. O. Webb, resigned. The C, C, C. & St. L. is handling, on its Cincinnati and Chicago division, an average of 1,000 loaded cars a day, and on its short branches a couple hundred additional. C. C. Waite has assumed the duties of president of the Columbus & Hocking Valley road, and states that he will make no important changes in subordinate officers at present. The freight receipts of the Big Four system at this point in tho month of August foot up Sl03,4t0. being the largest in the history of the three roadsrepresented in the sum named. Maurice Maxwell, late roadmaster on the Indianapolis & St. Louis road, has fully recovered from his illness and will probably take a position on the Chicago & Atlantio road in a short time. The railroad managers would do well to learn a lesson from the sleeping-car companies as regards rate matters. They never cut rates, but make their lights through the improvement of equipments. It is understood that D. H. Conklin, who has just retired from the general managership of the Terre Haute fc Peoria road, has been offered a position on one of the more important roads in northern Ohio. Henry Eraser, general agent of the Big Four at this point, has appointed Fred Adams, late with the B. & 0. Kankakee Dispatch, and Hairy Kohnle contracting agents in the territory under his supervision. During the present month $11,923,857 will be disbursed in this country, as interest on railroad bonds, and Sfl.lGoV.vjodividondsin on railroad stocks, making a total disbursement of $18,OJO,7U7 among parties holding such claims. . k Almost Avithont exception tho general freight agents report that they could use fifty per cent more cars than they now have in service. Grain and live stock aro moving freely, and miscellaneous freights are very heavj-. A subordinate official of tho Lonisville. New Albany .t Chicago road envs that, tho esoru place with the Pennsylvania Company i3 that tho L., N. A. & C. owes them &O.0U) iur iiio u?c: ui iuti unuge- over ine unio river, and won't pay it. President Ingalls states that no delinito action has been taken as yet looking to tho Big Four absorbing the Ohio, Indiana fc Western. It is quite evident, however, from the tenor of his remarks, that tho deal will eventually be effected. - Passenger men say that the volume of travel for the last four months, notwithstanding the large number of excursions, has been beyond precedent, and but for tho cutting of rates the revenue would have been the largest ever known. B. F. Mastin, president of tho Lafayetto car-works, was in the city jeMcrd.13' and closed a contract with General Manager Bradbury, of tho Lake Erie V Western, for two hundred moro box cars. . President Biice, of the L. E. & W., is interested in these car-works. The Pennsylvania lines 6hov their recuperative power by increasing their net earnings in July, on the lines east of Pittsburg, this year,$i")7,2 1(5, and west of Pittsburg. $lfc4.-'13. the increase, cast and west of Pittsburg, being $111,459 over the net earnings of July, lsisS. No person has been appointed to till tho place of Commissioner Fink, of the Trunkline Association, as 3-et. and it is believed that the position will be left vacant until Albert Fink returns from Europe, somo six months from now. Then, it is hoped, ho will resume his services. Tho net earnings of the Chicago, Barlington x Quincy for July were $070,473, an increase of 14;; pvT cent, over those of July, 1SSS. m They are not yet up to lfeS7. but con6idcring the bitter experience with strikes

and the general dismal results of 1SS8. the recovery has been wonderfnl ana insures the stockholders getting at least 4 per cent, dividends this year. It has been practically decided to elect ex-Senator Thomas C. 'Piatt to fill tho vacancy caused by the death of ex-Gov. Brown as president of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company. Tho election will tako place at Nashville, Tenn., where the directors will hold a special meeting. Wm. Lyrn the new agent of the Continental line, has fitted up an inviting ollice in the Cocdit Block. The Continental line, which has been shut out of Indianapolis for a couple of years, ranks among the best fast-freight lines in the country, and will soon secure its full share of the east-bound traffic. General Freight Agent Hammond, of the Erie road, has resigned on account of ill health, and will take a year's rest before entering tho service of any other road. For tho present all matters pertaining to the freight department will bo looked after by George Valiant, freight traffic manager. It is stated that the C II. & D. has rep

resentatives at towns thirty to forty miles out of Indianapolis who sell tickets at local rates to Indianapolis, and then give a sharply-cut rate on a ticket from Indianapolis to Cincinnati. On Wednesday three such tickets, it is alleged, were sold at Anderson, although there is a direct route from that point to Cincinnati. A number of friends of K. R. Morris, late special agent of the Vf nnsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, left last night for the East to attend his funeral which occurs to-day near Pittsburg. Until quite recently Mr. Morris's duties called him upon the Western lines centering here, and but few railroad officials were better known or more highly respected than was the deceased. ' The Western railroad situation is really a difficult one. Tho trunk lisr refuso to prorate, and at the present writing the only alternative for the lines west of Chicago is to openly ignore the interstate law, with a view of testing its constitutionality, or reduce their local rates to tho basis of their through rates, which means ruin to the roads. Next week somo definite step will doubtless bo taken in the matter. One of the higher officials of tho Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, who was in the city on Wednesday, in answer to the remark that the Pennsylvania Company is the one which should gather in the Ohio, Indiana fc Western road on account of its value in reaching Peoria, said that the Toledo, Peoria &. Western was still out in the cold, and wonld be worth four times as much to them as the Peoria division of tho O.-, I. & W. Allen Manvch who is to succeed W. 13. Strong as president of the Atchison, Topeka iSc Santa Fo road, arrived in Chicago yesterday. He will rtssumo control of his new office next month. Mr. Manvel said it would be impossible to outline the policy of his management until ho had had time to familiarize himself with tho road and its peculiar needs. He could not say what changes, if any, would be made in the heads of departments or in salaries. Traffic Manager McDoel, of tho Louisville, New Albany fc Chicago road, says but 13 per cent, of its business is effected in the rate war now in progress, and as tho passenger earnings are showing an increase over thoso of the corresponding period in 1SS8, he sees but little to worry about. As stated before, the Big Four is the road which is suffering in the tight, as when rates are firm it carries tho lion's share of the business between Cincinnati, Indianapolis and Chicago. In the month of August there was handled at the city freight depots of tho Pennsylvania Company a total of 123,690,013 pounds of freight, representing 3.024 cars, against 2t,529.&57, representing 2,357 cars, in 288. and against 25,060,918 pounds, representing 2,721 cars, in 18S7. The above statistics show plainly that the local business of the roads centering here is growing steadily from year to year, as similar increases are reported on a majority of tho roads centering at Indianapolis. Angola and Steuben county are hopeful of getting another railroad. Surveyors are at work on the proposed extension of tho Columbus, Lima & Milwaukee railway, and the route chosen will pass throngh Angola, Orland and Sturgis, Mich., having for its terminating point Saugatuck, on Lake Michigan. There it will connect with steamer lines to Milwaukee and Chicago. The route is a very desirable one. and as grading is already being done between Deliance and Lima, there exists a strong probability that the road will bo actually built. ThePnllman company has placed somo of its finest equipments on the Louisville, New Albany &, Chicago road, to run between Chicago and Louisville. This moves a railroad official to say that the Pullman company cannot afford to . discriminate against the Pennsylvania people in this matter, and that it mutt necessarily put on as tine eqnipments to ran via Indianapolis, between the points nan ed. The Pennsylvania runs twenty Pullman cars on the system to each one run over the L., N. A. &. C, and ought to be given the best cars. The old complaint that consignees are slow in unloading cars is heard. Says a railroad official: "When there is such a demand, it wonld seem that persons who aro using cars would load and unload them as promptly as possible. These delays are what encourage the movement to charge heavy demurrage, after a certain number of hours, on cars which are placed for loading or unloading." Complaint is also made that Eastern roads aro holding cars of the Western lines too long. Cars are now worth $10 a day to the roads of Indiana and Illinois. It is stated that more is being done this year in the way of introducing air-brakes on freight trams than in any two former years. A large per cent, of the freight equipment now in use on the Pennsylvania road proper is so equipped. The New York Central and the Erie are also introducing the air-brakes extensively. In tho West tho C, B. fc Q. and tho A., T. & S. F. havo adopted them for all of the cars run in their fast-freight trains. It performs admirably, and enables the roads to make a muck higher speed with live stock andperishable freights than under the old hand-brake system. Tho finest sleeping and parlor-cars in the country are now running over Indianapolis lines. Wagner cars run over the Big Four between Cincinnati and Chicago, and Pullmans over the L., N. A. & C. and C, H. D. between the same points. The equipments of both are about as perfect as roiling stock can be made, and it would be difficult for an unbiased man to say which is the more complete and elegant. The same thing will soon occur on tho Vandcrbilt lines between St. Louis and New York, and on the Vandalia and the Pennsylvania lines between tho same points, as both sleeping-car companies are building somo elegant vestibuled coaches for each line, which will bo put on within the next six weeks. Then tho Chicago roads will havo no advantage over Indianapolis roads in this matter. OltSOLKTE WORDS. A Protest Against the Arbitrary Rulings of , the Dictionaries. September Atlantic I would, however, coninro my brothers and sisters of the writing fraternity, if they can cope with the proof-reader, not to fear those dreadful letters Obs., with which tho dictionary-makers seek to bury out of good company many noble words with which Shakspeafo and Spenser made mirth and snoke wisdom. What was tit for thoso authors to use may still, at a pinch, help us in the nineteenth century. I would, indeed, go further, if I might, and plead with the dictionarymakers themselves that they should in future omit thoso condemnatory letters from their columns. Let them still tell ns what great masters have employed certain words, that we may be stimulated thereby to emulate the knowledge possessed by these writers as to tho essential significance of syllables, and that we may recognize the skill with which those syllables have been, in former days, subordinated to the highest purposes of thought and art in literatnre; but let them spare us the sight of thoso discouraging italics, Obs., just as we begin to glow with a sort of intellectual passion lor a word, and would fain seize unon it for our use. Tho sight of those three condemnatory letters tho very abbreviation has something of contempt in it makes us think of stupid fashions in speech; it makes us doubt, and while wo doubt inspiration Hies away and fancy grows pale. Langnago then becomes a question of times, of mode, of manners, and not what it should be, a question of power and fitness, of usef ulnebs and beauty. Fon bilious and miasmatic diseases, Aycr'a Ague Cure is a fcafo and radical cure.

MAGAZINES OF TOE MOXTH. The Forum begins its eighth volume with the September number. A leading article is an appeal to tha American peoplo by Thomas Hughes, author of "Tom Brown at Rugbj" to give their sympathy to England as against Ireland in tho present struggle between those countries. He criticises Mr. Gladstone's position in this matter, and calls him the "lost leader." Thomas Shearman offers a defense of Henry George's themes; Rev. J. R. Kendrick discusses the conflict between Catholicism and the public schools, and Goldwin Smith writes on tho civil-service question. Washington Gladden demonstrates that a great part of tho social ills now prevailing can be cured by the simple practice of economy by the people. Prof, lladley, of Yale College, argues that tho industrial problems must be settled by a gradual evolution, as other civil and political questions 1 1 W T T 1 T." L- A ii ,1 1 n a

Sho says: In cities and villages the kitchen and cooking-stove and hired girl are all to be banished from the heme. Clothes-making, soap-making, starch-making, laundrywork, coffee-browning, yeast -making, butter-making are all gone. Send after themor rather say that organized industry is already taking along with these the remaining work of cooking and cleaning. This state of things is coming as sure as tate; and when it comes the deliverance will be so great that generations yet unborn shall riso up to bless the workings of this beneficent law. The city of tho future will not build houses in squares, giving to every house an individual kitchen and prison-like back yard. It will rather build them all around an open square, and the part pow disfigured with the kitchen will be given over for a household sitting-room or nursery, opening into a great, green space, where children shall play in safety, and through which the free air of heaven shall blow into the houses surrounding it. In every square will be found a scientifically-constructed building containing a laundry and a great kitchen, supplied with every modern appliance for skilled and scientific cookery, andalso for sending into every dining-room any desired quantity or variety of food. The individuality' of tho home and the home tablo will be preserved, and the kitchen smells and waste and 'hired girl' will all be banished. The September North American Review contains the announcement that the Hod. Lloyd Brice, to whom the late Mr. Rice bequeathed a controlling interest, has purchased the entire control of tho magazine. His purpose is to conduct it on the plan followed by his predecessor. In tho opening paper Dr. William A. Hammond discusses the Brown-Sequard elixir of life, the interest in which topic is, however, lost to most readers, owing to recent developments. General Pope writes on the hackneyed subject of civil-servico reform. Canon Farrar tells why he is an Episcopalian, Senator Hawley points out the value of international exhibitions. Rose Terre Cook has something to say of the rights of women, Inspector Byrnes talks of tenement-houses, which ho describes as nurseries of crime;" Marian Ilarland has something sensible to say of ministers' wives, and Henry Cabot Lodge touches upon current political problems in an article entitled, 'The Coming Congress." He says, incidentally: "At the present time it is believed, rightly or wrongly, by large masses of the American people, that thero is no such thing as a fair election in certain parts of the country.' This belief, whether well ' founded or not. is a real and growing danger, which ought to be removed at all hazards, and the next Congress will, therefore, fall far short of its duty and of the expectations of the people if it fails to pass an elective election law. The cry which is sometimes raised that no election law can bo enforced in certain parts of the United States is idle. The day has gone by when a law executed by the officers of tho United States, nnd with tho power of the United States behind it, can be either disregarded or violated with safety. If an election law properly drawn is passed by Congress, it will bo enforced, and although it may not put a stop to all the evils which exist, it will so greatly improve the condition of things, and will do so much toward the restoration of an honest and unquestioned ballot everywhere, that the only wonder will be that wo have gone so long without it." The Century opens with one of W. Hamilton Gibson's illustrated articles, entitled "Winged Botanist's," that shows a remarkably close study of insect and floral peculiaritiesthe close observation of tho artist and the lover of nature, rather than of tho scientist. Masaccio and his work is tho subject treated of in the Italian Old Masters' series. Theodore Wores writes entertainingly of Japan and its artistic development. The installment of the Lincoln history treats of his re-election, of Cabinet changes and of the circumstances surrounding the appointment of Chase as Chief Justice. "The PhttToah of the Exodus, and His Sin," is tho title of an archaeological Saper, by John A. Paine. The "History Of !ara Political Prison," as told by George Kennan, is another chapter of horrors in the life of the Knssian exiles. J. E. O'Brien describes the methods of telegraphing in battle as practiced during the civil war. Two short stories and a chapter of Joel Chandler Harris's serial, "The Old Bascom Place," constitute the fiction of the number. An encravina from Saint Memin's portrait of Chief Justico Marshall forms the frontispiece of tho mag azine. The Magazine of Art for September opens with a paper on the "Barbizon School," Daubigny being the subject of discussion. Among other interesting articles are, "Tho Printing of Etchings," and a graceful essay on "Painters' Weather." A number of illustrations of household furnishingand a study in window draperies form a feature of the Art Amateur for September. Of the two colored plates one is a scene in a harvest-field, tho other a design for a salad bowl. Literary Notes. Georgo Bancroft's "Life of Martin Van Bnren'ri8 announced for early publication by tho Harpers. Oscar Wilde has ceased to edit tho Woman's World. The September number was the last he made up. George Kennan will shortly cease his lectures and settle down to the preparation of his Siberian papers for book form. Mr. John T. Morse, jr., has written for tho American Statesmen Series a biography of Bonjainin Franklin, which will appear immediately. The London Spectator calls attention to "The Begum's Daughter," Mr. Bynner's serial novel, now appearing in the Atlantic Monthl, as a "very powerful story." The Saturday Review regards Dr. Emerson's book on his father, "Emerson in Concord." as discreet, notwithstanding its intimate character. Referring to the fact that Emerson was soon after his marriage elected hog-reeve of the town, the Review says that "If Mont aigno had boen hog-reeve instead of Emerson, we should have known half the pigs in Concord by eight." "The historical treatise on Columbus, for which a prize has been ottered by a Spanish commission, must be delivered to the secretary of the Royal Academ y of History, at Madrid, before the 1st of January, ISttJ. Works written in Spanish, Portugese, English, German, French or Italian, may enter tho competition. The two prizes amount, respectively, to 5,700 and 2,Si5, each of the two successful authors receiving besides, five hundred copies of his work. Boston is to have a periodical of a new type in the Transatlantic, a iournal es pecially devoted to foreign matteis, tho first number of which is to appear Oct. 1. The new paper, which is to be published on the 1st and 15th of each month, and is the enterprise of a corporation headed by a Boston journalist of experience and cultivation, is the result of a conviction that tho cream of current European periodical literature by no means reaches American readers, and that a legitimate field will be filled by publishing a first-class journal of that type. A Hero and Ills Train In sr. Baltimore San. The heroism shown by Mr. Hugh G. Meem. the young mining engineer of the Consolidated Coal Company, in entering a flooded mine near Frostburg, Md., Friday last, and rescuing over forty imprisoned miners, is worthy of the highest commendation. In the absence of the superintendent of the mines, Mr. Meem, who is but twenty-four years of age, assumed charge of matters, and believing that the lives of

tho miners were at stake, he bravely entered th flooded mine, waded in water to his arm-pits for a distance of several hundred yards, and then mounting a boy on his shoulders mado his way to the mouth of the mine, accompanied by the miners, who had feared to stir lest new disaster should befall them. It is of snch material that heroes are made. In addition to the heroism, which was inborn, Mr. Meem has had ih advantage of thorough training in a military school, where both men til and plo'sical development are well nigh perfect, and where manliness is encouraged and performance of duty the rule. The French Gaining ou Us. "Washington Press. A well-known art publisher of New York city, just returned from tho Paris exhibition, gays that the feature which impressed him most was tho wonderful progress made by the French people themselves ill the mechanic arts. "Wo are accustomed," he

says, "to regard our own work in the lino of mechanics as eclipsing that of all other nations combined, but 1 saw much which would prove interesting to our best inventors and mechanical geniuses, and which convinced me that the French already surpass us in the mechanic arts." While this is not llattering to our national pride, and while it may not be strictly true, it is best not to dismiss such a hint with a sneer. Smart as this great Yankee Nation is, it may possibly learn something from foreign nations. The Washington world's fair of 1892 will present great opportunities for such teaching. EDUCATIONAL.
