AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS

Pardna University Ready to Teach Engineering in Its Sew Laboratory. American Hiil Can to Be Putin Tse on German Eailrcad8 Earnings cf the Mcnon Meetirff of Belt Directors Tie trnstees of Tnrdno University annornce the opening of the new engineering laboratory. It is & handsome building, 110 leet long by lifty feet wide, with a boiierrooai attached, forty by twenty-tire feet, coaplete in every detail. The equipment of the laboratory consists of a high-speed Shen5ctady locomotive, weighing 85.000 lowjda, and equipped with tlieWestino hcj-je system of automatic brakes; is raoanted upon supporting wheels in the laboratory in such a way as to allow its action to be studied, and its performance tested while the engine is rnn at any dosired speed or load; the conditions being similar to those of the track. The power of the engine is absorbed by powerful Alden friction brakes of special design, and its tractive force is measured by a suitable dynamometer attached to the draw-bar. Tne boiler may be iired with coal in the usual way. A powerful fcturtevant steam blower above the engine, but not in pipe connection with it. takes up and carries off whatever may be given out iron) the locomotive stack. There is also a one-bnndreU-borse-power Harris-Corliss triple expansion steam encine, a tbirty-hve-borse-power compound Wfcstxnghouse engine, a twelre-borse-power Otto ffas enjrine. and a 104-horse-power liabcock &, Wilcox boiler. In audition there is a complete outfit of tools usually used in railroad shops and practical mecnamcs to give information regarding their proper use. Indianapolis Talent Recognized. J. J. Fletcher, who recently left the Big Four to accept the position of general freight agent of the Kansas City, Fort Scott V. Memphis road, reached Kansas City on Monday last, and at once assumed the duties of his new office. In speaking of him the Kansas City Star says: "He is a pleasant gentleman, about forty-tive years of age, and a thoroughly competent railroad man. He entered the railway service in lb&l, and has continued in it ever since. lie was connected lirst with the Chicago, Columbus &, Indiana Central, but in 170 he left this road and went out as paymaster for the contractors on the Indianapolis, liloomington &. Western. Later he was appointed cashier of the Indianapolis oflice. and from 1875 to l&M served as general agent of the same road. He was then appointed general freight and ticket agent of the Champaign & Havana line, and afterward, for several years, was general freight and passenger agent of the Cairo, Vincenneswt Chicago. When that road was absorbed by the Big Four he was appointed assistant generailreightagentof the latter road at St. Louis, where he continued until appointed to his present position." Germany Adopt an American Idea. A year ago the German government took up the matter of the better and more rapid railway mall-service, .nd, in order to secure the most modern ideas on the subject, sent to this country an amber of the German postal officials, who spent several months in a thorough inspection of the fast mail trains running in various parts of the United States. On the return of the otiicials to Berlin, and on the strength of their report, the government selected the postal cars of the Chicago, Milwaukee & tit. 1'aul road as the best, and at once entered into correspondence with that company, which resulted In a contraot for the building of two more of these cars. The models have just been completed at the company's shops in Milwaukee, and, previous to being shipped to Berlin, are on exhibition in Chicago. They are exact working models of the cars in service on the fast mail between Chicago and Minneapolis, They are twelve feet in length, une-sixtb of the size of standard cars, are complete in every detail, fitted for steam heat, electric light, automatic brakes and signal, with a complete outfit of mailpouches, racks, letter-throwing dorices, bunks, etc. Looks Brighter for the Monon. The actual earnings of the Louisville, New Albany c Chicago road are better than they appear on the face. The management has lately adopted .a new style of making reports of earnings by taking bridge tolls out of freight receipts, instead of deducting them afterward from earnings. This is an important item, amounting to &.o00 a week. The stockholders' right to take up the new stock at J5 expirrd with the coming in of the new year, and since then the stock haagoueupo points. General Thomas is giving the property a gocd deal of attention, both as to its management and its finances. Director of the Kelt Road. The directors of tho Belt road and Indianapolis Stockyards met yesterday. In the absence of V. P. Ijams, president, Horace Scott acted as chairman of the meeting. A quarterly dividend of 14 per cent, was declared on the preferred stock. and a ssral-annual dividend of 3 per cent. on the common stock. No other business was transacted. It requires $15,000 to pay these dividends, and they are payable today. Personal, Local and General Notes. Edwin Keane. a well-known freizht man. has been appointed agent of the Conti nental line at Kansas City. F. H. Rallies has been appointed ticket naent of the Monon At New Albany, and r . Heck has been appointed local freight ageut at New Albany. It begins to look like business again on the Indianapolis & Vincennes road. All the miners are at work and the shipments of coal reach sixty car-loads per day. Six of the best locomotive engineers on the Cleveland division of the Erie lines have been transferred to tho Chicago & Erie, to run out or Huntington, Ind. The Indiana Midland, on which no trains are now run, to keep its contract good with the government, is delivering the mail at towns alorg the line with a hand-car. Hish authority states that Wra. M. Green, late general manager of the Big r onr lines, is to be elected president of the Ohio & Mississippi as a result of the recent troubles between the security-holders. President MacKey. of the Louisville. Evansvllle & St. Louis road, says but for the trouble with the Patton tunnel this road for wonld have shown an increase in earnings of 5275,000 over those of li'jQ. L. G. McPher&op, who has just retired from the advertising agency of the Pennsylvania lines, fifteen years n'rfo was'stur nographer of CoL W. L. O'Brien, who was then general passenger agent of. the lines.. K. C. Bradley, the retiring superintend ent- of telegraphy of the Pennsylvania Company, was on New Year's day presented with a solid silver toilet set by the sixtylive division operators he had under him. Grand Master argent, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, has. recov ered from an illness which confuted him at home for nearly a month, and will in a few davsbe looking after the affairs of the order, as usual. It was reported yesterday that the Chi cago, St. Paul& Kansas City road nas decided to issue additional bonds to the amount of 21,r'O0,U.0. the proceeds of which are to be used in building various exten sions of the system. The Toledo. St. Louis & Kansas City road haa given the requisite thirty days' notice of withdrawal from the joint agreement made between the trunk lines and the Central TralEo Association one year ago for the government oX business within joint territory. A meeting of representatives of the trans continental roads was held at Chicazo yes terday to consider a proposition to reduce the rate on orange from California points. . The recent frost in southern California has so damaged the orange crop that ship pers have nnitsd in requMslime the railroads to rednee the rate from the present basis of ?L25 to SO cents per 100 pounds. One

roaa objected to the reduotion, and the request could not be granted, although the other lines were willing to do so. The electric locomotive headlights in nse on the Chesapeake & Ohio road are so eat isfactory that William Garstang, engineer of motive power, will recommend that all the locomotives run on the mountain divisions be at once equipped with this improvement. As soon as tho State board gets the loca tion of the new fair ground settled. President McKeen, of the Union Kailway Company, will try and dispose of those unsightly lnifcli-stauds in the train sheds. They would be very suitable for out-door ticket-oflices. Superintendent of Motive Power Barnes, of the Wabash, has just turned out of the company's shops an eight-wheel passenger enaine which, when ready for service, weighs eighty-nine tons. It will bo used in hauling the Wabash night express between St, Louis and Decatur, 111. Joseph Kamsey, jr., general manager of the Big Four lines, spent yesterday in the city and went West last night. During the day he had a lengthy conference with the new superintendent of motive power, and the latter, in tarn, bad a conference with several of the division master mechanics. The Pittsburg division of the Order of Kailway Telegraphers now has a membership of nearly four hundred. In connection with the order a department is being organized to look after sick members, and such members will receive a weekly benefit of .". and be cared for in other ways by the fraternity. Good authority says that D. J. Mackey has withdrawn his proposition to lease the Kentucky and Indiana bridge and its

terminals at New Albany, he having discovered that it would cost him SO per cent, niore to do the business of the Louisville, Evansville &. St, Louis over it than his present arrangement. At the annual meetings of thn Tatm Haute & Indianapolis and the Terra Han to fc Logansport railroads, held at Terre Haute, the old boards of directors were reelected in each instance, and they in turn elected W. Jl. McKeen president of both roads. A dividend of 3 per cent, was declared in each instance. John F. Miller. General superintendent of the Southwestern system of the Pennsyl vania lines, spent yesterday in the city. He states that the present car movement on the Pennsylvania lines, both east and west of Pittsburg, is the largest in the history of xne company, lie met his several division superintendents here yesterday. More than 60 per cent, of the cross earn ings of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton lines is irora its local trafhc, and President "W oodford's report will show a handsome surplus above operating expenses of the C, II. V D. proper, its leased lines and the fixed charges on the C. H. & I), and cuar. anteed fixed charges on its leased lines. The Pennsylvania Comnanv now hut ni-r hundred men at work bntween Bradford and Chicago, grading for a second track and additional sidings, which are to be laid on Superintendent Bennett's division. The laying of additional tracks, widening of bridges and culverts, and imnrovements to yards on this division to bo made this year win cose iuny 5.uu.i;uu. The subjects considered at the onenincr session of the Western Passenger Associa tion at Chicago yesterday were generallv unimportant. In most cases the special committees were granted further time in which to make their reports. The subject or arrangements lor the Kepublican national convention was referred to a com mittee of five to report to-day. - A circular will be issued to-day appointing A. N. Sehoyer, chief traiu-dispatcherof tne rennsyivama lines, eastern division. superintendent of telegraph of the Pennsvlvania lines weit of Pittuhn-cr Th an. pointment is made with the approval of the Western Union TelecraDh ComnAnr. .Inhn Lang, of Wooster. O., a division operator, will likely succeed Mr. Sehoyer as chief irain-aispaicner. It is said that some Western mad. in no connection with the Kanawha Dispatch, is manipulating rates on dry-goods from the East. The charge is that a rato of 80 cents per hnndred pounds is being quoted from New York to the Missouri river, which in reality is lower than the reiznlar rate hxr usb sianuaru lines irom lew l orK to tho Mississippi river. There is talk of an in . m -A I i 1! . . vestigation by the Interstate-commerce Commission.' The Indiananolia Freisht linrean will hold its annual meeting on Monday next, at which time oilicers and an executive committee for the ensuing year will be elected. J. D. Riddttll, commissioner of the bureau, will give a resume of what has been accomplished by the bureau since he accepted the position of commissioner of the bureau, which was in July last. His work is said by the executive committee to have been very creditable. W. D. Holliday, who has been aDDointed assistant general freight agent of the Big Four at St. Louis, is brother-in-law to Gen. eral Manager Ramsey, of the Big Four. As eiaieu in m? journal a lew days ago, Mr. Holliday was to go to Cincinnati with the title of general agent, at a salary of 2.000, out oy me resignation of J. J. r letchor, the position at St. Louis, which pays S3.6.X) a year, was open, and Mr. Hollidar taki s that. Frank Ferris, a former clerk of Oscar Murray, tratho manager and agent at loiumbus, was transferred to Cincinnati. 0PIXI0XS RENDERED. Bchool-Teachen Cannot Collect Pay for Sat urday Work, but Can for Dolidaja. Superintendent of Public Instruction Vories has rendered the following opinions propounded by a school-teacher: our letter to the Attorney-general was hand ed to me to answer, and I copy and answer your questions eeriajiui: Can I teach on Saturdays and maka mi for lost time and collect pay lor the samel'' No; not lecmily. fcwtlon 4405 sajs: A school tenu of three mouths shall be sixty days; a scLooi month, twenty days, and a school week, five days." This is a part of your contrac t, wheth er mentioned la the contract or not. Teaching six aays per weeK vouiu tot le complying with, your contract. "Can teachers collect nay for letal holldnrs. when their contract with their trustee says they shall ant claim such ray I" les; lor trustees nave no legal rljrht to put such a clause la a teacher' contract. When teachers contract to teach school all the statu tory laws and all the neeessary implications are a part of that contract, whether anythln Is said about them In the contract or cot. The Supreme Court of Michhran.ln School Iltrict Xo.-svs. Gape. '30 Mich.. 484; and In llolloway Vi. School Uiatrict. Oil Mich.. 153. says: Recoenlzed holi days cannot bo deducted from tho tlmo for winch a school teacher contracts to teach, and his nay reduced accordingly. He is entitled to pay for such days, even though he docs not M. Moreover, to nut such a clans in tfan rnntmnt is not only a violation of the intendment of the law, but the result Is greatly to disorganize and to break Into the regular gradation of the school. People in all other callings recognize the legal holidays, and pupils csnnot reasonably be expected to be at school on such days. Hence. If teachers are forced to teach on such days or lose want's, tne result i that many pupils are absent and the systematic gradation and organization of the school interrupted and the best interests of the school defeated.

QUEER QUESTION IN COURT

Does an Escaped Prisoner Gain All the Time He Yas at Large? The Villain Hart Given Eight Yean Confine mentGas Company Escapes Responsibility for an Explosion. Sheriff Langenberg went to Chicago, yes terday, for "Hay bacfc" Conners, the fugi tive arrested there, and will take him direct to Michigan City. He was prepared with the necessary commitment. A question has arisen as to the length of time Conners must serve. He escaped in July, with a two years' sentence just pronounced against him. Deputy Sheriff Huffman asserted that the two years is from date of sentence, and instanced a case where a con vict sentenced to one year's imprisonment escaped and was gone ten months. He was then caught, and had only the re mainder of the year to serve. Ex-Prose-cuting Attorney Harding and .the present incumbent. Mr. lioltzman. maintain mat the sentence, being for two years of im prisonment, means that and nothing less. Judge Cox would not express an opinion on the subject. Ttesponsiblllty for an Explosion. Judge Brown yesterday sustained the demurrer of the defendant to the second paragraph of the complaint of the plaintiff in the suit of Frederick L. McGahan against the Indianapolis Natural-gas Company. The claim was for $5,000 damages for injury received in 1S89 at a house on East New York street, which was blown np by natural gas. The plaintiff averred that the explosion was due to the neglect of the defendant in failing, after two notices, to shut oft escaping gas, which tilled the cellar. The defendant answered that the plaintiif, knowing the danger, was himself responsible when he held a lighted match to u cellar window from which he had wrenched the fastenings for the purJose of repairing the leak himself. Judge irown's decision holds this good in law. The case will probably go to the Supreme Court. The building in question was wrecked, and caused the injury of the oocupant, Mrs. Ella Kilbnrn, and several painters who were at work on the house. Iong Vs. Keen. The statement of the result of the suit of Henry C. Long vs. John Keen, in yesterday's issue, was not correct. Judge Harper decided that Keen, the tenant, was entitled to possession, thus throwing the costs upon plaintiif. The judgment for back rent was an undisputed claim, the amount having been previously offered by defendant and declined by plaintiff. The Question ol the sheriff's services did not enter into the c6e. I he point involved . ... was an interesting one. Judge Harper de cided that possession by a responsible tenant implied an annual lease iron-clad" receipts to the contrary notwithstanding. lie llobbed Kahke. George Snovels substituted a plea of guilty, yesterday, in the Criminal Court for a plea of not guilty, the charge on indictment being grand larceny. Judge Cox heard the evidence, which was that while drunk Snovels had robbed August Kahke of a diamond pin and a watch. On account of bis age, eighteea years, and the re spectability of his pareuts, the sentence was made three months in the work-house instead of a penitentiary sentence. Klght Years for Ansa alt. Henry Hart, colored, was yesterday found guilty of criminally assaulting Daisy Williams, a child of thirteen years, and was sentenced by Judge Cpx to eight years in the State's prison. The evidence was extremely disgusting. The defendant's mother created a sensation by her screams and pleadings, which threw her into a faint when her son was led away handcuffed. Hart has a wife. He is twentythree years of age. trill Cling: to Bridget. H. N. Spaon, as attorney for John D. Sullivan, yesterday dismissed, in Jndge Taylor's court, the suit of his client against Prldget Sullivan for divorce. The re doubtable llridget is still held to answer to the court for contempt, for beating her husband after being enjoined not to do so, but this, too, will no doubt be dismissed. Docket Notes. Bettie Kamey was yesterday declared in sane and was ordered committed to the hospital. Joseph F. Flack qualified yesterday as suardian of liertha M. Flack. Hiram S. Tomlin and Daniel N. Jackson, with bond of $1,400. The whl of Lydia Pyle was yesterday probated. James A. Wildman is nominated as execntor. The estate falls to her children in three equal parts. The Court Record. 8CFREMS COURT OPINIONS. 15531. Emma Ityder vs. Frank Horsting et al. Knox C. C. Affirmed. Miller, J. In a collateral attack on the order of a board of commissioners in opening a highway, such order is void unless the names of the owners, occupants or agents were set forth in the petition, but if there is no allegation in such collateral proceedings that tho occupant was not named, it will be presumed in the absence of a disclosure that the plaintiff' was the solo occupant; that such occupant was named and duly notified. l.Viol. American Cannel Coal Company vs. H., T C. A: C. K. It. Company, Spencer C. C. Affirmed. McBride, J. In appropriation proceedings concurrence in An appraisement by two appraisers is sufficient. An award of a sum in gross covering all of the damages to all of the several tracts was sufficient. 16121. Georare C. Clark, Execntor, vs. Nannie Helm et al. Hnsh C. C. Affirmed. Elliott, C. J. Where a testator directed that the executor should convert tho notes and accounts held by the testator at the time of his death into money, which, with other money, should equalize the shares of the respective heirs, held: That interest should be allowed to heirs who had roceivea less than their allowance from the time of the testator's death, provided there is money for distribution. APPELLATE COURT OPINIONS. 250. Thomas I. Owens vs. James M. Tague et ah Monroe C. C. Affirmed in part, reversed in part. Black, J . Kef usal to strike out a pleading is not an available error. 2. When the agent of a payee of a note had instructions to loan money only on a note with two sureties and such payee refused to accept a note with one surety from such agent, who procured another surety without the consent of the co-surety, the latter is discharged, but such surety may consent to be bound, notwithstanding such alteration. The reply sufficiently shows such consent SOfi. Henry J. Adams vs. Henry II. Main. Henry C. C. Atlirmed. Pemhard, J. Action for debauching plaintiffs wife is based on the loss of consortura that is. the society, companionship, conjugal affections, fellowship and assistance but even if it were for the loss of services, it it can be shown that the defendant did that which impaired the value of such services he would still be liable, even though he did not deprive the husband of them entirely. U. To permit the tiling of additional paragraphs of pleadings and of amendments after the issues are closed is very largely within the discretion of the court, and unless the appellant shows affirmatively that he was prejudiced there will be no reversal. Stt! C, St, I & P. IL It. Co. vs. David Fenn. Howard C. C. lieversed. Crumpacker. J. Where an animal escaped from the barn of its owner without his knowledge aud wandered on a railroad crossing and was killed, no signal being given by the engineer, the company is liable. There is no rinding in the verdict that the death of the horse was the result of the negligent omission to signal, and the judgment must be reversed. Keinhard.
