TRAFFIC INCREASING AGAIN
More than 20,000 Loaded Freight Cars Dandled by Local Lines Last Week. Ecth lait and West-Bcund Bntinrss Un usually UeaTj The Jitw Corn Crop Atoat to Start for the JlarkeU The train records show that la the week endiDg Nov. 19 there were received and forwarded at Indianapolis 20.2CJ loaded cart, an increase over the number handled in the preceding wee& of 1.335 loaded cars. While there bate been weeks in the last four months when there waa a heavier movement, freight rneo consider 20,000 loaded cars a maximum. An increased toncage Is shown east bound. At the trcnkline sea-beard terminals the elevators hate been considerably relieved by export shipments of grain, which has made room to relieve Western roads of some of the accumulated business, and this in tarn has enabled the Western roads to place xnoro cars for loading. Cars are by no means as scarce "as a month ago. Shipmentsof cotton and hardwood lumber Last are heavy, while tbe shipments of live stock are below tbe usual Jfovember average. West-bound the tonnage is havy bevond precedent lor November and largely of high-class freights. This is taken oy general freiant agents to mean that the Noithern and Southern lines are carrying boaiuess unce more at tariff rates. As a consequence, the freights are taking the most direct routes. Pacific coast business, west-bound, is heavy. Kates to I'acttio coast points are said now to be better maintained than at anytime in years. This is thought to be doe to tbe fact that trallio with all the transcontinental lines is heavy, their local, as well as througH business, having increased greatly the last year. Local business ia hardly op to tbe average of weeks of the past two months, yet is in exoess of the corresponding period last year, and would be largely in excess were the hog and new corn crops niovina as freely as in the latter part of November, 1VJ1. Indications are that the new corn will begin to come on the market this weea, but where the nsual number of hogs is to come from is a problem. Tbe probabilities are that this clae of tratho will be brought from more die tant points than in any former year. As winter draws near, naturally the shipments of lumber and other building material fall off. Below is given the number of cars received and forwarded at this point for the week ending Nov, 19. as compared with the corresponding week of the preceding two years:

The Chicago Inter Ocean to-day publishes an important interview with exSenator George F. Edmunds, in which he declares his belief In the constitutionality of the Sherman anti-trust act, and strongly advocatea its rigid enforcement lie emphatically declares it was the intention or the framersof the bill to reach all railroad pool and tariff agreements where they related to the fixing of a rate and provided a penalty for cutting. He says the amendment offered to specifically refer to railroads was voted down because it was included in the other sections and waa unnecessary. In view of the fact that in the ease brought . by the government against the Transmissouri Association under the Sherman act before Judge River, of Cheyenne, the railroads Quoted profusely from the Congressional Kecord to show the intent of Congtess. This statement of ex-Senator Edmunds will, tbe Inter Ocean claims, be of considerable importance. The paper also claims that if tbe courts hold to tbe view of Mr. Edmunds, the pooling arrangement recently made between the railroad presidents will be illegal as the agreed rates for world's fair business next year. Traffic Notes. The Lake Erie & Western dropped last week below its nsual average of late months, owing to a scarcity of cars, it bringing in but 2?3 and forwarding but 310 loaded cars. The Chicago division of the Dig Four last week took out of Cincinnati for the West 1.C55 loaded cars. On Saturday night it had several hundred loaded cars for tbe West in its yards. Tbe week ending Nov. 19 was the best week of the year with tbe Yandslia, it bringing into Indianapolis 1.&3 and forwarding l.(rJ4 loaded earn. Ol the in-bound business, 157 cars were loaded with stock and 270 with cotton. The shipments of high-class freights west-bound are so heavy that both tbe nig Four and tbe i'erjnavlrania ar refusing to haul anthracite coal and other low-class freight until the yards are cleared of accumulated west-bound business. Business with the Indianapolis division of the l'ennsylvania lines is ucutually heavy. Last week irJO loaded cars were -forwarded and OoO brought in. A few years auo half the above number in aither direction was considered by Trainmaster Urennen good business. The small per cent, of the total car movement witb the through lines which are empty cars continues to be a striking feutUre.Of the 2.075 cars handled by the IndianapoliA division of tbe Pennsylvania lines, bat 176 were empty: of the 2.CJ6 handled by the Vnndalia. but 309 were empty. It will be noticed that the Ciucinnatl, Hamilton V Dayton bandied at Indianapolis last week i0 loaded cars. This number would have been considerably increased, says Superintendent Ualloway? had the road ample power. On Saturday night there were 10O loaded cars in tbe iards at Indianapolis to go east, and l0 at Iaxnillon to come west. PeraotiaT, Local and General Notea. William IL MeKeen, president of the Terre Haute & Indianapolis, returned from New York on Saturday. John McKeever and Andy Walker have run an engine on the Terre Haute & Indianapolis road over thirty years each. The net earnings of the Lake Erie & Western road for September were ?172.22., an increase over September. U91, of $oS,974. The increase since Jan. 1 is $127,590. The I'ittsburg & Lake Erie aud the Lake Shore roads will to-day pot on fast' train service between Pittsburg and liufialo. 1 He i fc l. t win turn its trains over to the Lake Shore at loungttown, O. The second week of November with the Chesapeake v Ohio waa another bad one, the road earning $176,139. which was a decrease as compared with the earnings of the corresponding week of 1891 of &3U.53L The accident to McKeever'a train on the Vandallaon Thursday last was the only one in twenty-four yeara be has ruii an engine on tbe T. 11.

It was the intention of tbe officials of the Union Kailwav Compauy to hold meeting this week, but President McKeen tinds it impossible to get the presidents and general managers together before next week. Some very impcrtaut business must soon be a. tended to. Ihe force of train-dispatchers on the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne & Chicago will be reduced on Jan. 1.

Since Oct. 1 Dr. Talbott, medical examiner of tbe Penunvlvauia voluntary re lief department for tho Indianapolis di vision, has examined and passed 915 em ploye who were desirous of becoming members, treble tbe number in any like period in tbe tortv months the association has been organized. Train CO. east bound, over tbeVandalia. is made up of ten cars, all long, beavy care, and its running time from St. Louis to Terre Haute is four hours and seventeen minutes. Engineer well informed say that this is one of the most difficult trains in the country to run on time, as it must stop at all county-seats aud railroad cross ings. Grand Chief Ramsey, of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, is in Daltimora in conference with the 11. & O. official as re gards an advance in the pay of the operators. Tbe U. At O. people voluntarily gave them an advance within a year, and they do not feel much likn making another, it is stated. It will probably end in a com promise. . The representatives of the Central Traf fic Association. Chairman Dlanchard now being in New lork, have adopted a reso lution declaring that both east and west bound freight rates between New York and Chicago shall be restored on Dec 1 to the. basis of 75 cents per one hundred pounds, iimt-olass, and the other classes proportionately. The four Macker Hues surprised their management by showing an increase in the second week of November of ll.C87. The Evansville &. Terre Haute earned 823.598, an increase of Sl.tSJ; the Louisville, Evausville& St. Louis. $3U81. an .ncrease of $8,424; the Evansville & Indianapolis, 56,274, an increase of f&ft. and the Peoria, Decatur & Evansville, $15,130, an increase of ins. A. G. BafTord, attorney of tho Interstatecommerce Comuiiasion, is In Chicago examining the cases of the shippers aud railroads which will come up under federal In dictments before Judge Dunn. He and Special Agent Kretchiner had a long interview, Saturday, with United States District Attorney Milobrist, presumably witb reference to the hwift case and other matters now Under investigation. The voluntary relief department of tho Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg disbursed in benefits in October a total of &Z0,G(3.5. Of this sum. S10.2C0 Was disbursed In death benefits. S5.2V2.25 in accident bonetits and $5,234 in sickness benefits. Of the membernbip, t43 received benefits during the month. In the forty months the organization has been in operation it has disbursed 2-7?. r, 10 in death benetits and ?-7JtV 0Ty.ij7 in sickness benetits, or a total of 674.078.7. Representatives of the Atchison, the Burlington, tbe Rock laland, tbe Colorado Midland, the Rio Grande Western, and the Denver &. Rio Grande roads, alter a conference of nearly a week, have at last decided on a method of dealing with tbe Union Pacific on account of its refusal to divide business with them at Ogden and Denver, instead of at tbe Missouri river. An 'agreement was reached Saturday which resulted in the issuance of a joint circular, signed by the general passenger agents of every one of the above-named roads, which, while not a boycott, is a method ot retaliation which the parties taking, such action think will injure the business Of the load. m m KEEPS HIS OWN COUNSEL. President Harrison Always Remarkably Iletlctent as to Appointments. WnsMnffton Tost An Interesting story is told in connection with the appoiutrnent of Judire McCornas to a position ou the District bench. Mr. McComas arrived iu Washington lust Wednesday niuftt and on Tintraday mornins: spent an hour and a half iu conference with the President. During the entire conversation the judgeship was not mentioned by either the President or his caller, although at that moment the commission was lying unsigned on the executive deek. When Mr. McComaS left the President and spent afew moments in the room of Private Secretary Halford. The latter, although "aware of the impending appointment, did not mention it, aud the exsecretary of the Republican national committee left tho White House totally unaware of the honor which awaited htm. and for which, indeed, be bad not aaked. Within an hour afterward the commission was sittned, and Mr. McComas beard of hia elevation through the gossip of the street. This singular reticence of the President in imparting a knowledge of his intentions has been remarked by scores of persons to whom tbe experience has come. Senator Stanford once relat-d an Incident which is now in point. Calling upou the President, be remarked that if a certain gentleman was to be appointed to the then vacant California judgeship, he would like to enter a protest against It. "1 know whom yon nifan," said the President, "and he ia not to be appointed." "Have yon decided whonto name!'' inquired Seifator Stanford. Well,"id the President. 'I think the man who will be chosen will be satisfactory to V'U." The Senator continued his journey to the Capitol, and 1cm than two hours later the nomination Of Representative McKenna. whoe appointment had been recommended and earnestly urged by Mr. Stanford, was sent to the Senate. Senator Stanford has wondered to this day whv the President kept him In ignornnce of the appointment which must have been decided upon When he was at the White House. Senator .McMillan had a similar experience. He had recommended Mr. Shira for a Supreme Court vacancy, and the tact ot his indorsement was mentioned when Mr. Shiras waa named. "So your friend Mr. Shiras, is a judge!'' said a friend to the Senator. Mr. McMillan looked stunned. 'Yon don't say ho' he exclaimed, and then he went ont to learn if the news was true. Uncertainty Fatal to liaslness. fan Francisco Chronicle. Why ehould not an extra session of Congress be called aud tbe tariff qnestibn be settled as speedily as possible! The cautious ones who are anxious to see thu.su Djertdsferred until the Fifty-third Congress meets in December, 18D3, can't see beyond their noMea. If they fancy it would do more harm to grapple with the matter at once they are woefully mistaken, for manufacturers and business men generally are bound to proceed with caution in the face of a threatened change. It requires no prophet to predict that If the matter is left jn the air for a whole year or fifteen months the consequences will be disastrous, for it stands to reason that extremecaution will be the order of the day in every direction, and thai is only another name for stoppage of enterprise, which in a eountry like this is in itself a calamity. The people have, according to the Democrats, aked for a radical change iu the revenue system; now let the chsngo be made as soon as possible, so that we may see whether it will be beneficial, and if not then we can retnru to tho revenue system under wbieh we know the country enjoyed unparalleled prosperity. The Copyright Law. Boston Journal. Either through malice or Ignorance the New York Evening Post (Dem.) speaks of the protectionist opposition too copyright measure." This is absurd. The presmt international copyright law was placed upon the atatute dooks by a protectionist Con gross. In the Senate twenty-six Republic nns and one Democrat voted for the tneas ure; thirteen Democrats and six Republicans aejainat it. In the House ninety-three Republicans and' thirty-four Democrats voted in the affirmative and sixty Demo crats and seventeen Repnblioans in tbe negative. The most vehsmert opponents of the law wernot protectionists," as the Evening Post would faUely have it, but the wild and woolly free-traders of the South and West, who were terribly anxious that hooka should be "cheap." even if they were stolen.

NOT BIELViJ WANDERER. The Comet Discovered bjr Holrr.es Will Not Trontle the Inhabitants of the Earth. Albany, N. ,Y.t Nov. to. Calculations made at the Dudley Observatory by Pro, Lewis Ross indicate clearly that the Holmes comet is not Identicel with tbe comet of Riela, and that it will not come near the earth. A week ago tho comet had almost exactly the position which liiela's comet would have had if it had been seen coming on Us accustomed trip. The Holmes comet also appeared to be moving across the eky in nearly the same direction that Uiela's comet wonld have moved had it returned to view at this time. But with the lapse of time, through exact observations, tbe motion ot tbe Holmes comet appears to be inconsistent with the ioea that it isidentical with Btela's. The diilerence of . motion is not great, but It is enough. Professor Ross states that on account of the very slow apparent motion of tbe comet it is impossible to obtain very exact mathematical results from the observations thus far made. The slightest deviation in-the nocuracy of the observations changes the computed position of the comet in space by enormous intervals. Weeks must elapse before thoroughly reliable results can be obtained.
Professor Boss has computed the Orbit of M the Holmes comet, first, on the supposition that it moves in a parabolic path, and secondly, od the assumption that ita orbit is elliptical. On the first supposition the distance of the comet comes out greater than lOJ.OOO.OOO of miles. On the second the distance ia computed to be about 15,000,000. While these figures are liable to be very greatly modified hereafter, there appears to be every probability that tms comes is very far beyond the orbit cf the comet of llleia. It also appears almost certain tnac the distance ot the Holmes cet from the earth is increasing rather thr.u diminishing. W hy it was notdiscovcred weLs or months ago is a mystery, for it sLonM have been brighter in October than it is now. The ascertained farts In regard to this comet willcaueea collapse of publio interest in the matter. But to astrouomers it will continue to be of great interest since it presents problems of much interest both from the mathematical and physical point of view. A IlEBEf! TELL. Colonel Falrbroiher, ia the Name of the Solid South, Gives a Few lliuts. , New York Advertiser. v Col. Al Fairbrother. editor of the Dur ham (N. C.) Globe, who had enough of the j Cleveland during the campaig n for having "slapped the dirty pension-beggars in the face." is naturally elated over the result of the election, lie has been in town for a day or two, and to a reporter of the Morning Advertiser consented, yesterday, to make some utterances, which come with peculiar signilieaoce lroru a frank aud manly representative of the proud and victorious southland, whose white citizeus named the present President-elect. Colonel Fairbrother aid that while he knew North Carolina was entitled to some recognition and Colonel J. S. Carr should be the next Posttuaster-general. aa was intimated in the Morning Advertiser, ho also knew that there wete other thincs besides Cabinet-making to which Mr. Cleveland should give his attention. "For instance." said the Colonel, "we (and I speak of tho South) have grown somewhat Weary of the apparently endless pension bill. It is our desire, and violating no confidence, I may say. our design, to have all this business rectified." Tbe reporter casnally asked the Colonel what he meant by such an assertion. The Colonel pulled himself up to about sit and a half feet of tarbeeled manhood, and said: "1 will tell you. my friend. We propose to abolish tbe iniquitous. Incompetent and dishonest pension bill. We propose to give to every honest Union soldier who received an honorable discharge, or who was wounded, a liberal and com passionate pension. But we proposo at the came time to guillotine the hummers, campfollowers, coiiee-coolers, and tbe horde of miserable scamps who followed in tbe wake Of war who ucver Saw a battle and who never smelled real powder. It is the idea of tho boutn, now that we are in th sad', die now that wo have captured not only the,' presidency, but the Senate and the House; that the entire people, from all tbe Mates,' have given to Democracy thoir diroct indorsement, and we propose, 1 pay, to fix thlnlja in a little bit different style. "1 here are to-day millions of honest war claims before th Congress of America. The Southern people, in the dark days when over the troubled waters there was no cry of "Peace, be atill," lost home, lot property, and their children lost almost tnir inheritance, and were even ravished by the miserable scoundrels who invaded our fair land, do not propose to monkey with fellows who received 14 a month, with tho subsequent proceeding of stealiug all that the Republican party would allow. "The fences which were burned, and the homes which were pillaged had, could decency talk, a commercial value. It is bur. idea to bring before the American people the real justice of our cause. "It may be true thut the war has ended and God grant that it has yet at the same time there is no reason why we. the Southern people, should not be reimbursed for the property which was lost after peaoe has been declared. "When Mr. Cleveland struck the dirty beggar pensioners in the face he did an absolutely good business job. Bnt hia triumph most r.ot e.nd with that, nor must he think that he ha fulfilled his mission. "1 claim to have a pretty good idea of the pulse of the onthern people, and I am not shooting wluo of the iryirU when I aay that, unless Mr. Cleveland cuts loose, from this miserable penaion fraud, aud reimburses the impoverished bouth and gives to the people who were looted their just dues, he will not. in their opiniou, be tbe man be was on the Stlfday of the present month. "As to Mr. Cleveland's Cabinet, of course. I understand that he' expects to do as he always did suit himself. The fact of the business is, the supper which he took last night with Mr. Henry YRlard suggests a mere phantom or ghost of an idea, which is to the efleot that Mr. Harrity is uot to be iu it. The fact that he wined and dined such a miserable apostate as Carl Schurz, and that he receives such a drift of rascality to bis manly bosom, must not be. taken as an indication of his Cabinet's architectural construction. He is simply havingsumo fnu. ' "It ia with no particular boast that I make this assertion, yet I do claim that the work of my Durham, North Carolina, Glebe had aS much to do with keeping tbe South in tbe saddle as anything taat the elegant Mr. Hatrity with all his boodle ever conceived. "Briefly: Unless Mr. Cleveland recognizes the South; unless he shows to Congress the necessity of paying tbe war claims claims long over-due; unless he says to the people, of not only North Carolina, but of Tennenaee, of Georgia, of Virginia, and of Florida, and iu fact the entire solid Poutb, that be is one of us. then tbe gentleman's bead may still Increase in ita alarming dimensions.'' Cleveland Knew llctter. Phllsdelrhie N'orth Atamoao. We do not take stock in any extra session of Conitreta called to legislate. on the tariff. We do not believe that Mr. Cleveland will call such a session. We doubt it Tammany wants an extra session, and he will be governed by what Tammany wants. Still, if tbe people are oppressed by the tariff, the soener it is abolished the better. Mr. Cleveland says the people are oppressed by the tariff, and it may be urged upon himtorelievethepeopleot the tinmen. But. though Mr. Cleveland said before the election, that the people were groaning under "hardens imposed by the iniquitous tariff." he Was speaking a political advocate and uot from tbe book. He and all other persons are aware that the masses of the eountry are better oft in every material reipsct than ever before; that they are not groaning under any burden imposed by tbe tarifr. and that any chance of policy will precipitate a crisis that will wipe out anv nartr niakinff the eh an ire. Wa itn nnt expect any material cbanze of the tariff at present. Sound Protection Timber. New York Recorder. ' ' . i . .

DEMOCRATS AND AS INCOME TAX It Will Be the Next Step After the Froposed Tariff Revision. Philadelphia f ress. General Weaver is richt in saying, in the interview published Tuesday, that "if the Democratic party carries out its pleJms as to tariff reduction, it Will be brought face to face with a Treasury deficit," bat he is mistaken iu adding that "thp party is opposed to levying an income tax to compensate fur the loss from Imports," or, as Ueneral Weaver doubtless xnoaus, the duty from Imports. If the Dexnorratio party reduces the revenue from customs, an incorao tax or a deficit ie inevitable. Exclusive of the sinking fund acd the poetoflice, which pretty nearly pays for itself, the federal government tiieds about Srxo.ixKXOOO a year. No Congress is going to reduce this. 1 here are too many Democrats weatlnz jobs. Under President Cleveland expecsss were increased $50,000,000 at an average of over S'J.000,000 a year. No party can check the regular Lormal growth of the government. It troes on at lrura $r,.ooo,0:X) t $10,000,000 annually. Five years hence pensions will begin to diminish not before. Until then .T0.(XX).(JU0 must bo raised by taiation, aod $50,000,000 more if the sinking fund Is kept up. A civilized Kovetntnent under the conditions of our own can raise revenue from but four classes of objects: Keer, whisky and tobacco. Tropical imports, tugsr. coffee and tea. Competing itjanuiactarea irom Europe. Incomes or stamp taxes. There is nothing else. License and stamp taxes on ohecks, rceipta. etc, from which Great Britain raises 5J5,O0O,00O a year, are not to be thought of. He will be a bold man who raises aujtar by 2or 3 cents a pound agin or Jvies a tax whioh will make tea aud coffee dear. People will not stand it. One-half onr present revenue, or rather more than half. $r.:.v3.C24 in the hecal year 12, out of $35:5,155.4 1 3, Is from the taritt on competing products and manufactures. If raw materials are put on the free list, wool. hemp. etc.. and iron ore will represent a loas of revenue of S3, 500.010, nnd other raw material will double .this, a reduction of about 10 per cent, on pree.!t receipts. If the taritl is reduced on manufactures. It will in some caaes increase imports; but in most articles American Wages will fall, and the price, of the article made here be reduced to meet foreign competition. Any wide reduction of dutle is certain to decrease revenue. Now, there is only one source from which this loas can be met by a t ax on incomes. tSnch a tax in the East at least is unpopular and is deemed inquisitorial and obnoxious. The last campaign was fought to a finish on the line of an attack on rich men as robbwra and private wealth as a public clamity. Mr. Mills urged an income tax two years ago ' at Minneapoiis,nnd a graduated tux at that, Mr. Springer advocates it Great masse of Democrats in the Vt, Southwest and houth would favor if, because its burden Would fall on the Eastern State. Sncb a suggestion will shoes: many sober and consarvative Democrats; but five years atro they were just as mnch shocked by Mr. Cleveland's tariff message. What Democracy Promised. Hew York Recorder.
