RAILWAY TRAFFIC OF A YEAR

Business ot 1891 with Indianapolis Lines Exceeds That of Former Years. in Increase in Lccal TraUle, as Well as a flflaiy Grain MoTement, Helps Mate Up the Gratifjinff Eecord Bell-Eoad Easiness. The freight traffic over Indianapolis lines in they ear 1831 exceeded in Yolaroe any former year. The handsome Increase is as much doe to the heary local business done us tu moving the large crons of the year. The exhibit below snows the number of cars received and forwarded daring the year, as compiled weekly from the train-sheets of the respective roads. It will be noticed that last year S6.9S3 more loaded cars were handled at this point than in the year lbrJO.. In the year just closed the heaviest business was done in the months of January, March, An gust. September, October, November and December; in fact, np to Angust nearly every road fell short of handling as many loaded cars at Indianapolis as in 1KJ0, and the gain was made in the last live months of the year. The lightest business was done in the week ending Jane 18, when but 1.9C7 loaded cars were handled; the heaviest weeic's oosinees in tne wees ending Deo. 12, when 22,079 loaded cars were received and forwarded at Indianapolis. Up to Aug. 1 the shipments of grain to Eastern markets fell far below those of either of the last six years in the corresponding seven months. The shipments of export cattle the earlier part of the year were heavier than during the last half of tbe year. Increased shipments of lumber, desks, furniture, staves and heading are noticeable through the entire year. The last three months the shipments ot grain, cotton and other products of Indiana and States west of this have been heavy beyond precedent. The, tonnage west-bound of a through character increases with each year very satisfactorily. The last few months the shipments of an-, thracite coal, coke and railway supplies were in excess of 1SCO. Steady rates ana the scod time made by the fast-freight linen have brought about these gratifying results. North-and-south roads have about held their own. The demand for cars to move east-bound freights the last three months has more or less, unfavorably affected the north-and-south roads, they being hardly able to secure cars to handle their local business. Freight agents, without exception, rerort that their local business Las been largely in excess of any former year, both in and ont-bound. The Lake Erie & Western handled at this point, last year. S.'-fC more loaded cars than iu 1890; the L., N. A. & C. 2.012 more. The largest increase in business, however, is shown by the Big Four lines, as might be expected, following the consolidation of so many roads, all working iu eacn otter's interest. Local business would have made even a more favorable exhibit but for the strikes of the miners at the mines on the T. 11. & I. and tne I. & V. roads, which affected tbe business unfavorably for sixty days. Indianapolis has grown ranidly as a distributing point of produce, which is shipped in here by the train-load and then shipped out by the car'load to the larger towns and cities over the State. It was a year in which very satisfactory rates prevailed, a year in which the roads experienced no trouble of importance from strikes, that of the Lake Erie& Western being of short duration and not seriously aftVcting its business. To say that the year lxyi was one of the most prosperous with Indianapolis roads which has ever been realized is no exaggeration, and ev ery thing points to the year just entered upon as promising even more satisfactory results.

The last three months the shipments of hogs from the Indianapolis yards to the Eastern markets were largely in excess of any former year. The Late Erie & Western and the Big Four secured the bulk of tbe shipments for the Buffalo and New England markets. Fastened with a Silrer Spike. The Facific extension of tbe Great Northern railway was completed into Kallispel, Mont. last Friday, the last rail being laid across Main street at noon in the presence of 300 people. A silver spike, made here of silver dollars contributed by women, was driven at the end of the track by an old pioneer. This was the signal for an outburst of pent np enthusiasm, and an address of welcome to J. J. Hill, through his representative, was made, after which the contractors and their crews, numbering over two hundred, were escorted to the hots, where a banquet awaited them. Kallispel. tbouah but a few months old. has a population of over four thousand people, and is the only prominent city along the line of the 1'acitio extension.

An increase in both its through and local business is shown. The Indianapolis, Decatur & Western shows the largest passenger earnings in 1&91 in either ol tne last five years. This road has prohted through the boycott of the Chicago & Alton. General Passenger Agent Donoagh states that the receipts from sales of tickets at the Union fetation will exceed those of 1890 in the neighborhood of $40,000, this increase being largely made in local business. General Agent Elliott, in charge of the sleeping-car office business, states that the business of the Pullman and Wagner companies shows an increase of 20 per cent, over 1890. He is not at liberty to give the figures, but they show such to be the case. If. M. Bronson, assistant general passenger agent of the Big Four lines, states that their business out of Indianapolis has been handsomely in excess of 1S90. Tho increase was in local business and sales of mileage books. In coupon business there was a falling otT. With the exception of Aucust the receipts from sales of tickets in every month of 1S91 showed an increase over those of lbOO. The report of District Passenger Agent Baldwin, of the Monon. showa that the receipts from sales of tickets at Indianapolis last year were about $14,000 in excess of those of 1S1. What may seem singular, this road sold fewer mileage books that in 1690. The C, H. & D. mileage book covering this road works against the Monou, but both its local and coupon business bows np better than in any former year. H. U. Denng, assistant general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines, states that their through business for tbeyear was unirecedentedly large and more miUage tooks were sold than in any former year. In local business a decrease in receipts from sales of tickets is shown, but this decrease is more than made np in the increase in the sale of mileage books, which, while being largely local in their nse, are not shown np in what are termed local receipta from sales of tickets. Tbe report of District Passenger Agent Rhein. of tbe Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton lines for Indianapolis, shows that the receipts were nearly doable those of 1890. Its local business between Indianapolis and Cincinnati increased handsomely, and the receipts from sales of mileage books . were far beyond thoe of any former year. The mileage book ot the C, H. & D. covers so many roads that it is very popular and works to the advantage of tbe Indianapolis office, -The receipts from sales of through tickets were not as large as in 1890. Miscellaneous Items of Interest. The report of John Ferguson, general baggagemaster at tbe Union Station, shows that in the year 1891 there were handled 416,976 pieces of baggage, an increase over 1890 of 85,687 pieces, - and the work was done with lour fewer men than in 1890. Tbe statement of Freight Agent Maxwell, of tbe Lake Erie & Western, shows that 12.000,000 more pounds of freight were handled at their Indianapolis station for the LE.&W. and Monon in 1891 than in 1890, and with the L. E. & W. the increase was largely on out-bound business. The annual report of C. A. Rodney, local agent of the Vandalia, shows that last year 11,592 car-loads of freight were handled in the company's freigbt-denot at this point, against 10.906 in 1890 and 9.689 in 18S9. Of the 11,592 car-loads of freight handled in 1891 8.C94 were loaded with west-bound freight. There arrived and departed at the Union Station, in 1601, 43,13) trains, against 42.806 trains in 1690. against 42.204 in 18S9. and 40.890 trains in lhtS. The trains hauled in 1891 averaged fivo cars. The Vandalia hauls the longest trains, the average being seven and one-half cars to a train. In the foregoing statement special as well as regular trains are included. The annual report of Oran Perry, general agent of the Pennsylvania lines at this point, showa that in the year 1891 there were handled at the company's city freight depots 429.US4.516 pounds of freight, representing 42.463 cars, against 237.762,070 founds in 1390, representing SS.4S4 cars, ncrease in tonnage in lb'Jl, Ill.e23.446 pounds; in number of car-loads of freight handled, 3,979 cart, George Bender, superintendent of the Chicago division of the Big Four, is inclined to be boastful, his division being the banner diTision on tbe Big Jour system. His official report she ws that in 1891 there were bandied on this division, which extends from Chicago to Cincinnati, a total ot 325.023 loaded cars, against S06.882 loaded cars In 1890; increase the last year, 19,041 loaded cars, being an averaae monthly Increase of 1,537 cars. TUB JUKY SYSTEM. Frederick Smythe, Recorder of New York City, Thinks It Should Hot He Changed. January Scribser. ' There has been some criticism of late iu the discussions of lawyers as to the advisability of continuing the jury system. I wish at this time to express my belief that any change, at least attesting the jnry system in criminal cases, would be unwise. I have found, in a long experience, that in a great majority of cases the dooisions of juries as to the facts of a particular case have been just and wise. It has sometimes surprised me to see how men belonging to the business community, and unacquainted with the intricacies ot the law. have made sharp distinctions between different grades of otlenses, and have brought in verdicts which conform exactly to the legal requirements of tbe cases. It has sometimes happened, perhaps, that iurors have been indueneed by the particular facts of a case to render a verdict which does not comply exactly with the lsgal definition of the crime proven, but in the vast majority of cases substantial justice has been done. I know of no other method which approaohss in fairness toward the accused, and in justice to the community at large, tbe decision by a jury of the facts in a criminal case. The judges certainly do not seek added responsibility. It would be unfair and burdensome to them to require thst they should pass not only upon the legal questions which arise but noon tba facts. The twelve jurors can pay their sole attention to tho facts, often intricate and complicated, and by a discussion and a comparison of views cr.n justly weigh thsm. The jury system as it now exists is the result of centuries of experience, and I trust that It will always be maintained as one of the most effective safe-guards against error or injustice in tho administration of the criminal law. Honesty Versa Rascality. Oeorre William Curtis. in Harper. There is no greater fallacy than that of the superior practical character of rascality. Often, indeed, it gains a temporary advantage. Honesty is often drowsy and very lazy; but when it awakes and stirs, it is tbe most practical of all forces. Among the pure drops of wisdom that fall iu problems from the accumulated experience of ages, none is purer than that honesty is the best policy. You call it a mean motire ot conduct; but it is no meaner an appeal than that of the familiar Christian exhortation, be good and yon will be happy. It is primarily not a rule or a motive; It is the simple statement of a truth, and Tweed illustrates it as plainly as John Jay. CiiExrcsT and best Dr. Bull's Cough Bjrup. 25 cents.

NORM SUBURB'S PROGRESS

Thrivincr Manufacturing Town Which the Democrats Ilave Shut Out New Industries for Indianapolis Center cf tho World for Chairs, Desks and Road Carts Notes from the Fact cries. The citizens of North Indianspolis are disposed to talk very bullish ot the future of that suburb. In the year 1S91 there were 12i houses built there and lots have already been sold on which fifty or more houses will be built in the early spring. This suburb has six miles of gravel streets, four miles of improved sidewalk and good school and church facilities. The manufacturing interests of tho town are highly prosperous. The Udell wooden ware-works, A. A. Barnes, proprietor, will in a few weeks be working double tbe force they ever did before The snath and cradleworks resume operations this morning, and expect to turn out more work than in any former year. The Indianapolis Ice Company on Saturday completed eight houses in place of those burned last September, with a capacity of 35,000 tons, and if a good ice crop is indicated in the next few days six more ice-houses will be built, increasing the capacity of the company for storing ice to 45.000 tons. The new bridge over Fall oreek will be completed in a short time; then the street-car company promise an electric-line service every ten minutes, and will make the run from the extreme point on the line to the Union Station in twenty minutes. Two other important industries are considering propositions to locato at North Indianapolis, and really its future is promising. New Industries. The Fire-clay-rootine and Tile Company, whose buildings at Montezuma were recently burned, have about decided to rebuild their works at 13rightwood and. on a much more extensive scale. At Montezuma they ran three kilns and employed about thirty men. Tho new plant will, have ten or twelve kilns, and about ninety men will be employed. Tbo company already has several large orders awaiting its rebuilding. The roof on the Central-avenue M. K. Church is constructed of this rooting material, and fs a very handsome style of architecture. A company has been organized to manufacture the newly patented Knickerbocker natural-gas meter. Already orders from natural-gas districts for several hundred meters have been booked. One ordnr from Pittsburg for four hundred has just beon received. A new bnilding has just been erected on South street, seventy-tive feet square and three stories high, which is to be occupied by Hetherington & Hibben, who will manufacture cameras, more especially magazine cameras. Greatest Chair and Desk Center In the World. But few may be aware of it, but Indianapolis has the largest chair manufactory in the United States, and it turns out the most expensive rocking and ofiico chairs manufactured in this country. This is the Central Chair Company, and as soon as the Indianapolis Chair Company, on New York street, gets in .full oporation in its new buildings it will rank the second largest cbair factory in this country. Indianapolis also has the largest desk-manufacturing establishment in the United States, the Indianapolis cabinet-works, which not only furnishes all the desks for the home government, but for several foreign govern mentsaswell. The Lewis. Porter & Co. cabiuet manufactory is credited with turning out the handsomest and most unique work of any establishment in the country, one of their specialties being ladies1 desks. Make Slore Carts than Anybody. David Parry, president of the Parry carriage and cart-works, states that in the year just closed the works turned out sixty thousand two-whseled jobs and thirty-live thousand four-wheelers, which is as many vehicles as were turned out in the year 1691 by any other three establishments in this country. He states that the present year they expect to further increase their capacity, as with the present plant they are unable to till their orders. Stalra for the Monument, Hetherington & Berner have thirty of their men employed at their architectural iron-works on the iron stairs which are to be put up inside the soldiers' monument. They expect to have it in position and completed by Feb. 1. Industrial Notes. Several manufactories on the South Side are using electricity for power, it being furnished by the Jenny Electric-motor Company's plant E. C. Atkins & Co., through their San Francisco representative, have recently sold several large bills of saws of varioci kinds, to go to Australia. The Home Brewing Company is putting in three large boilers and a powerful stationary engine. It expects to get started np about the 1st of February. A toy trunk manufactory is becoming quite an Indianapolis industry. The establishment employs mostly women, and the work it turns out is meeting with ready sale. ' , The Premier Stsel Company has converted the old iron-tail rolling-mill into a plant te manufacture passenger and freight elevators on a large scale, and already have quite a force of men at work. The large new building which the Lieber Art Company is erecting on Madison avenue is practically fire-proof. Hetherington & Berner have for some weeks been working on the iron portion of the structure. That tbe industries on the Belt road are prosperous is evidenced in the fact that in tbe year 1S01 Belt road engines handled cn the switches of the manufacturing establishments located on its line 23,408 loaded cars. Improvements to cost $12,000 are in progress at tho United States arsenal. Among other things one hundred iron girders are being put in to strengthen the floor of the armory. These girders are fifteen inches wide and twenty feet long. Tbe Jenney Electric-motor Company has increased its capacity for the manufacture of motors and dynamos for the third time, with tho beginning of 1&T2. The company finds it impossible to fill orders for motors and dynamos as promptly as desired. The proprietors of some of the machineshops report orders coming in a little slow, but in every esse they have orders booked which will keep them busy through the winter. Some of the work is taken at low figures, tbe proprietors prefering to keep their men at work. The Sinker-Davis Company last week shipped a second large saw-mill plant, including - engines, boilers, etc, to A. D. Streight & Bro., Vicksburg. Both mills are 6f the largest capacity, and are to bo used in cutting cherry and walnut lumber, tbis firm having purchased a larce acreage of timber in Mississippi convenient for shipment to Vicksburg. Manufacturers aud dealers in carriages, buggies, etc.. report having had a good trade through the year l'l. in fact never better, unless in 1S87. which was tbe banner year in this business. One of the largest dealers remarked on Saturday that it was noticeable that tho better grades of vehicles sold well this year, which, he thought. Indicated that it was prosperous times all 'round. A recent issue of the Barberton Herald and Transvaal Miuing Mail, published ai Barberteu. Transvaal Republic, South Afriea. notes tbe starting of a mill built by Nordyke & Marraou Company for Bowness & Co., at Barbertou. This company is operating mills built by both English and American mill-furnishers, and the comparisons made are highly flattering to the American builders. The American-built engines, which furnish power for at least two of their mills, are spoken of in the highest terms. Instead of the dull trade incident to the holiday season. Messrs.

They recently received an order for seven nine-by-twenty-xour roller mills from the Union mills, Nashville, Tenn., which they wern compelled to decline, being so crowded 'with previous orders that this could not be rilled within a reasonable length of time. They are, however building for this company a complete "plant of 2.500 buehols daily capacity, for the manufacture of fine corn goods. Their shops are running full time, and in some departments day and night m a Hungarian Women. Wlihelm Singer, In Harper's Magazine. In the Hungarian women we purposely overlook any foibles that may exist, for. without palaver, the Hungarian women are among the most beautiful in the world. They are not languishing, diaphanous creatures, composed of cobwebs and tbe odor of musk, with ' a sickly pallor or a heotio flush in their cheeks. No; erect and straight as a candle, hearty and vigorous to the core, the rare pictures of good health and abounding vitality. They are gifted with small feet, full arms, plump hands with tapering fingers, and wear long braids. The sun has spread a reddishgolden tint or a darker touoover the com Dlexion. The Hungarian woman is not a beauty of classical contour, noT does she, perhaps, frequently present a riddle to the psychologist, and . ethereal poeta will scarcely tind a theme in her for hypersentimental reveries, tike is rather the vigorous embodiment of primeval womanhood. As her exterior, so her whole character Is enobantingly fresh and positive. She likes to eat well, is fond of a drop of wine, takes naturally to swimming, dancing, gymnastics, and has not the least objection to being admired. Although not specially inclined to sentimental effusiveness, in one sense of the term, she may, in moments of love and passion, give a profoundly stirring expression to her emotions; she may clothe her sentiment in words of enrapturing naivete, drawn from the depths of the national temperment, if it does not And utterance in the, all-expressive jai," whispered in the acme of ecstasy, aocompanied by an ineffably blissful glance. This is true of the so-called girls of the people no less than of women of the higher classes, for giace and beauty know no difference between high and low, and often bestow upon a poor, barefooted, short-skirted peasant girl (with her faoe In a kerchief tied under the cbin) the same enchanting form, the same magically attractive glance, as npon her more favored sister. Women as Managers of Business. T. W. Higginson. In Harper's Bazar. I have always remembered how admirably a Uoston merchant of the last generation discoursed in public on the propriety of explaining business all airs to women: but when this was mentioned years after to one of his daughters, she said, "I only wish ha had applied it in his own family." A rich heiress, the daughter ot an eminent financier, told me that she was herself absolutely ignorant of all money matters; after her father's death, her brothers had managed her aS'airs; then, "of course7 her hnsband; but she herself knew absolutely nothing, itremindedme of another heiress I had known, who was twice married; the first husband lost twothirds of her property; the second made away with the rest of it: and she supported herself and her child for tbe rest of her life there being nothing left to tempt a third fortune-hunter by giving publio readings. One of the minor achievements of an eminent financier now under arrest in New York is stated to be that of sweeping in among his vast losses the whole property ($14,000) of two ladies, who Had assigned to him certain stocks or certificates to be transferred for their benefit. Perhaps it would be unjust to call him a swindler in this case, or to call those other men fortune-hunters, they may have expected better results; but certainly the absolute ignoraco, absolute trust, and. one might also say, absolute folly of many confiding women present 4 combined temptation which sometimes demoralizes the very elect. Cases in Tolnt, New York Sun. 'You neednH talk to me about heredity," said Mrs. Oazzara to her husband, wbo had been endeavoring to elncidnte the subject. 'I know there's nothing in it." Oh. you do!" "Yes, I do. Now look at the Snooper children, for instance. Four boys and two girls, all grown up long ago, and every one a bachelor or an old maid. . Don't tell me they got that from tbsir parents." Confirmed. The favorable impression produced on the first appearance of the agreeable liquid frnit remedy, Syrnp of Figs, a few years ago, has been more than confirmed by the pleasant experience of all wbo have U6ed it. and tbe success of the proprietors and manufacturers, the California Fig Kyru Company.
