CAL IQUISVILLE. KY. NEW YORK. N.t. VOTING ON A- STJRIKE Secret Ballot Now Being Taken hy Employes of the Wabash. The Latest Cat in Wajres Not Favorably Eeceived Annual Report of the T. 11. & I. Railroad. Te Journal's Peru correspondent , says that it was learned there yesterday 'that a general strike on the Wabash system is probable on or about Hay 1, when the new schedule of reduced wages goes Into effect. A secret ballot whether or not to strike Is now being taken over the entire system by the six railroad labor rgunlzatlona. A two-thlxds vote Is required, and the vote is unanimously in Xavor of strike thus far." Prom a Wabash man who was in the city yesterday it was learned that last fall the Wabash reduced the wages of the officials from the highest to the lowest. Its commercial agents, and, in fact, all employes outBide of the transportation department, 10 Jr cent., the reduction being accompanied by the statement that it was the intention to restore the wages whenever business Improved. The reduction wa accepted. Since that time business on the Wabash has been poor, as on other roads, and the management consider the further reduction oi tiered as an absolute necessity. This cut will affect conductors, brakemen, engineers, firemen and all other employes except Bwitchmen in the employ of tho Wabash company, whose names are on the operating rolls not cut before. The switchmen of the company at Chicago are not on the Wabash bay roll. They are employed by the West Indiana Belt line and receive union wages. The Wabash pays the Belt line so much per month for switching service. He says that the transportation men are not In good humor over the matter, but they are an intelligent set of men, and realize that the present are hard times with railways and will submit to the reduction. There is no talk of a strike, and the Journal can safely cay there will be none. A Good "Word for Conductors. A freight man well up in the ranks and Df large experience In railroad service asks that the Journal publish the following. Which is, to some extent, a defense of the passenger conductor. The freight man says: "A railroad's popularity depends as much upon Its general manager, its superintendent and its conductors as upon its equipment and road bed. A kind word from the manager' produces wonderful results in the way of increase! activity. A. superintendent who Is genial and pleasant among Us men will draw at once their respect and their very best efforts and continued praises, and all look upon such a man with jrlde and as a friend. Conductors do more than anyone to retain for their respective routes their full share of patronage. The recent wholesale discharge of conductors prompts me to d?fend these men and to make a few inquiries in the sense of justice. Conductors reach that position by years of toil and promotion, but seem to be a distrusted class from the very beginning. If they wear good clothes, the inference at nee is they stole the money to buy them. If they live in a resectable neighborhood the inference Is they cannot afford to do it on their Income. Should they own a horse end buggy the inference is plainly expressed. If one should happen to own a diamond, or wear a borrowed one. that would be prima facie evidence that the man Was a thief. A train load of passengers knows but one man, and that man the conductor. He has actually got to be a walking encyclopedia, is expected to answer a thousand questions. collect varieties of tickets, receives train orders, watches the Incoming and outgoing passengers, and, Bbove all. to arrive at destination on time. These men are always of a high order of Intelligence, certainly from a railroad ptandpoint. They are always honored and respected in a community, are always men of family and an. good citizens. Many cccupy their position for years. Finally, without a moment's warning, comes the discharge envelope with notice, 'services no longer needed with the miserable subterfuge of a pretext that the cause is 'noncompliance with rules of the company. No other charge Is given, and the conductor must accept his humiliation, his disgrace, as best he can. In all civil and criminal cases a man is considered innocent until rroven guilty. Should there not be some iw compelling a company to confront the victim with his accuser before discharging Mm, and therebv bringing disgrace upon him and his family?" llrnefltn of Ticket-Scalping. The hearing on the bill t prohibit ticket Bcalping was continued by the House commerce committee at Washington yesterday. Wm. Daniels, of Cedar Rapids, la., on behalf of the railway conductors, submitted some remarks in favor of the bill. He was followed by C. M. Aid rich, of Peoria, 111., of the Travelers Protective Association, who sail the business of ticket scalping was the only safeguard asrainst continued agcTossion hy railroads In the direction of higher rates. George McKenzle, of Chicago, a member of the executive committer of the American Ticket Brokers' Association. sjoke against the bill. He said In reply to questions that probably 3'J to 40 per cent, of the tickets bandied by the scalpers were handed to them hy railroad comj-r.nlf s; the remain Vr were obtained from th purchasers of the tickets. There was no Ticket lookers' Association or ticket brokers In Kurorean countries because there was no discrimination in railroad rates there, the verv thing from which the business frrew. So lontr as ticket scaling continues, he said, cities of 6.OJ0 and up would not be likely to suffer from discrimination in rtilroad rates, and , bo far as passenger trarllc Is concerned it dos away with the necessity for the in terstate-commerce law. Vanilnlla learning; Lat Yenr. A special to the Journal from Terre Haute 'says: The annual report of the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad Company, now in the hands cf the printer, will show th.it the gross earnings for the last fiscal year were J t,;i7. 4OO.40, an Increase of 1.003.41. ami the net earnings J31S.333.C1, a decrease of 3.933..). The St. Louis. VandalU He Terre Haute railroad, which Is the -western division, earned pross Jl.SitfUOl, in Increase of H.7i9 CL Ieductlnff operat

ing expenses and rental a lo3i of 52M72.0S is shown. On the Terre Haute & Logansport railroad the gross earnings were $730,0106, an Increase of Deducting operating 'expanses and rental produces a loss of fc7,437.S3. The Indiana & Lake Michigan railroad shows gross earnings 7,?S7.31. an increase of J12,0u8.S'i. and a loss after deducting operating expenses and taxes of J14.357.21. Th earnings of the Terre Haute & Peoria railroad were IU6.15C.79 and the loss after deducting operating expenses and rental was $10, 153.54. As this road had only been operated since Oct. 1, 1832, no comparison is made with the previous year. . General Manager Williams said yesterday at Terre Haute that he exp?c.ed the new superintendents to . assume their duties on the loth of this month. The resolution making the appointments which he, as chairman of the executive committee, prepared was sent to Pitt33urg sev.?nl days ago for the indorsement of the other memLGra of the committee. Superintendent Elliott, as published yesterday, will have headquarters at Terre Haute, and it is expected that Mr. Darrow, who has been with Superintendent Hill in St. Loul3. will come to Terre Haute about the 15th to go into .Mr. Williams's office.

The IT. P. Too Greedy. The Union Pacific has finally Ehown its hand in the squabble over emigrant business, and it cannot be denied that it holds about all of the trumps. The other lines are still of the opinion that the Union Pacific i3 very unreasonable, but what they are going to do to help themselves Is another matter. The Union Pacific holds contracts for about 80 per cent, of the California emigrant business for the year, and it will not surrender this without receiving concessions which the other roads are not ready to grant. They can wrest the Union Pacific control of the emigrant business from It, but could only do so after a long, hard fight, which would involve regular as well as emigrant business. To avoid this contingency and at the same time preserve th.e emigrant clearing house is what the association lines are now lighting for, but it was generally acknowledged at Chicago yesterday afternoon that the prospect was not bright. Peraouttl. L.oenl nnd General Notes. The American Railway Union in March added seventeen new lodges to the association. W. E. Looney, master car builder of the shops of the Louisville, Evansvllle & St. Liouis, has resigned. L. V,". Ewald has been appointed New Kngland passenger agent of the Missouri Pacific and the Iron Mountain. Two of the Eastern lines have so far failed to resign the trunk-line agreement to maintain rates and abolish commissions. President Jeffrey, of the Denver & Rio Grande. Is In New York, and speaks more hopefully of the outlook in that section for business. The shops of the Iuisvllle, Evansvllle & St. Louis at Princeton, Ind., on Thursday commenced running nine hours a day and full handed. It is believed that the' semi-passenger pool formed by the Indianapolis lines wlli result in an absolute maintenance of passenger rates. A. A. Zlon, general superintendent of the Union Hallway Company and Belt road, has gone. to Lebanon to attend the funeral of his mother. On the promise of better train service over the Evansvllle & Indianapolis C. H. Gray, of Chicago, hass purchased tho hotel property at Indian Springs. Engine 43 on the Monon yesterday came out of the shops rebuilt. When put in thn shops, a few weeks ago, the engine had run two years without repairs. Truffle Manager Loud, of the Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee, has also been appointed commercial agent of the Grand Trunk for the Detroit district. 11. C. Diehl, general manager of the Interstate Dispatch, wr.s in the city yesterday for a conference with H. C. Parker, traffic manager of the Lake Erie & Western. A Garstang engine on Wednesday hauled four cars from Mattoon to St. Louis, 133 miles, in two hours and thirty-two minutes, making required stops at county seats ajid railroad crossings. Richard Fitzgerald has been appointed superintendent of the Chicago Union Stockyards and Transit Company, and everything connected with the two interests has been consolidated under one rnanagement. George R Sherman, general manager of the Vanderbilt fast freight lines, was in the city yesterday, returning from a Western trip. He says he finds business light all round, but there is a disposition to maintain rates. The earnings of the Indianapolis, Decatur & Western for March fell $7,1J below those of March. 1S33. Frelgnt traffic is exceedingly light all along the l!ne, as the grain men pushed the grain out when the low rates were In vogue. M; E. Ingails tells the people East, when questioned as regards the report that he wanted to get the Ohio Southern and the Cleveland, Akron & Columbus in the Big Four fold, that the Big Four docs not need either of the properties. George Lowell, general superlntedent of the Monon. was in the city yesterday. He states that the stone traffic on the line is increasing, and that they are handling a good deal of lumber, timber, and more coal than for some time past. Agents of South American roads are in this section looking for first-class engineers and firemen to grto that country and take service. Steady work and free transportation" are promised and J200 a month for engineers and a proportionate sum for firemen. Vice President Barlow and Trafilc Manager Cavanaugh, recently appointed to those ofncla.1 positions, are making- extensive improvements to the Evansvllle & Terre Haute and Improving the service to such an extent ss to brlnjr out favorable comments all along the line. Grading on the extension of the Chicago & Southeastern from Anderson to Muncle Is being pushed. About . two mile? of the distance will be completed this week. Despite the denials of the Iake Erie & Western p?ople there Is a belief that this company is behind the enterprise. W. ll. Jenkins and C. C. Merrill, of the New York Central passenger department. J. Seinwelth. of the Michigan Central, and O. E. Jenkins, of the Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg. were In the city yesterdav looking alter business. All report travel the lightest at any time In years. General Manager Hunter, of the Erie fpst freight lines, spent yesterday in the city. lie expresses the opinion that both east and west-bound freight rates are now bettor maintained than at any time In the last nve years, and thinks such conditions will continue for some time to corns. R. R P. Peirce, trustee and general manager of the Indianapolis. Doatur & Western, says that the decision of Judge Caldwell in the Union Pacific case exactly suits him. The management of the Union Pacific had no business, he says, to get behind the courts and then begin to cut wages. The Alton yesterday gave notice that to meet the competition of Central Traffic Association lines It would make a one-fare rate from all points on its line east of St. Louis to the annual convention of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor, to bo held at Cleveland July 11 to 15. One of the damage suits against the Phoenix P. ridge Company for ?2o.oo) growing out of the disaster at Louisville has been compromised out of court for $X0. The case was to have been trl?d next Monday, and was that of Mrs. Louise Gcgus, whose husband was a victim of the bridge disaster. An U:i3tern paper says that the Chicago & Kastern Illinois stockholders were so disappointed because they received but a slx-per-cent. dividend last year that they instructed the management to reduce the wages. In this connection it should be said that only the preferred stockholders are receiving any dividends. The Columbus & Hocking Valley will not Increase Its bomled debt $7.0co.uuj, jve was telegraphed from Columbus. The company has arranged to tnke up its car trusts by placing a two-mil 'ion-dollar mortgage on its equipment, giving the company more time to pay for the l.iV'O conl cars purchased in the last eighteen months. James Charlton, general passncer agent of the Chicago fc Alton, has notified conductors that they must be more accurate In detaching mileage from books. He says complaints of recklessness in this matter are too numerous, conductors handling mi'eage books as If they did not co.t anything, but were In the nature of a compromise way of riling free. The ticket mrcnts on the Illinois Central p.re a good de exercised thnt the company is to substitute women for ticket sellers at all the snhurl.m stations. Th3 company has secured a Ions list of women who are willing to tahe these positions at $1 a day. and anv ticket seller v.-hi v.Ii; not remain with the company at that pay will be allowed to rjult. Tnese positions are now largeiy filled by men. President Mayer, of the Ilaltlmoro Ohio, has recommended that the grade of the road from Chicago to Ri'timore be reduced to twenty-six fc?t to the mile except at a few places where a helping engine can be u? 1 to advantage. He nlso recommends to the directors that thre should be better terminal f.tciMiie-? at Washington and the Improving of the passenger ami freight statlor.3 at that point. N. I. Elliott, who on. the 13th of this month becomes general superintendent of the Vandalla lines, left the Pennsylvania lines in IS-H. when the St. louIs, Vandalla fz Terre Haute was opened for business, r.nd was. with Messrs. Wise. Flnkbiner and Ivnowlton, appointed one of the passenger

conductors on the through service. Three years later he was appointed by Colonel Hill master of transportation, tho position now known as superintendent of transportation. The Louisville Trust Company, as trus

tee of the second mortgage bonds of the Kentucky and Indiana bridge Company, by a cross bill in the United States Court at Louisville, yesterday, asks a foreclosure of mortgage on all the bridge's property .and sale. The first mortgage is admitted, but a question is raised as to the superiority of the Youngstown IJridge Company's claim for building the bridge approaches. The amount of the second mortgage bonds Involved i3 $000,000. The Union Pacific was vesterday the cause of the withdrawal of the Denver & Hio Grande Western from the Western Passenger Association. The latter road gave notice to Chairman Caldwell that the Union Pacific was manipulating rates via Ogden in such a manner that it was compelled to withdraw In order to protect its business. One of the Western Passenger Association lines has succumbed to outside pressure and granted cheap rates! to a meeting to which the association as a whole refused them. s Advices from Springfield, 111., give notice that the consolidation of the Chester, Centralia & Altamont and the Sparta & SL. Genevieve railroad companies under the name of the Centralla & Chester Hallway Company has been filed in the office of the Secretary of State. The line will extend from Altamont: Effingham county, to a point on the Mississippi river opposite St. Genevieve. Mo., and aso from Sparta to Chester. The capital stock of the company is $1,000,000, and the principal business office Is to be maintained at Centralla. M. W. Mansfield, superintendent of the Indianapolis & Vincennes, was offered the same position on the Louisville division of the Pennsylvania lines, but declined. There seems to be but little doubt that II. Ponebrake, master of passenger trains on the Panhandle lines, will be given the position, as a year ago General Sueprlntendent Peck offered Mr. Ponebrake the position of superintendent of the St. Louis division of the Pig Four, and the Pennsylvania people promised him a better position if he would remain with them. Drexel, Morgan & Co , of New York, have requested all of the Louisville Southern bonds in possession of their agent, the Columbia Finance and Trust Company, of Louisville, to be turned over to them. The anti-plan security holders object to this measure, and a big kick is being made to keep the securities in Louisville. It is believed that some sort of eleal is on between the Ixwisville Southern and the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton or the Louisville Southern and the Kentucky Union which will greatly benefit the Southern. The revised statement of new railway mileage in 1833 is 2,635 miles on 2H lines and in forty-three States and Territories, Pennsylvania leading with 304 miles, followed by 212 in Florida. In all New England only 123 miles were built last year, or less than In Florida. Of the 123 miles 113 were constructed in Maine, leaving but eifrht miles for the five remaining New England States. Massachusetts built 1.63 miles and Connecticut none. A considerable amount of grading was done in 1SD3 on which track was not laid, and a large number of enterprises are already under way this year or awaiting improved times. AMUSEMENTS. Grnnd llerrmnnn. That the people still love mystery was plainly evinced by the great crowd at the Grand last night to see . the interesting Herrmann. A few more and standing room would have been at a - premium. While much of Herrman's business is not new, and while a considerable portion is, perhaps, as cleverly worked by others, no one thus far has been able to establish the friendly relationship with the audience that Herrmann does. And therein lurks much of Herrmann's drawing powers. The ladie3 are Herrmann's special victims. He never misses an opportunity to be deferential to the fair ones. .He will not so much as roll up , his sleeves without first begging pardon of the female spectators. Then he introduces a number of pretty women to assist him, and Mrs. Herrmann does a very taking serpentine dance, with a series of convolutions that stamp her a star performer in this new and bewildering spectacle. There are some features of Herrmann's work that the general public is not posted on. This is the number of confed-. erates required by the magician. It is said that he carries no les3 than eighteen assistants. As a half dozen at the most are all that appear on the stage, one naturally becomes curious to know what use he has for a company almost numerous enough to give an opera. While many of these are employed in producing his magical disappearances, there are a number who may be found in the audience. Some of these are said to have rabbits stuffed down their backs, while others are supplied with different queer properties that come in handy when the great Herrmann plans a new surprise for his audience. It requires no little skill to manipulate the wires, ropes and machinery employed in his business, and in this way the entire company of eighteen has plenty to do. Above everything Herrmann is an actor In his way, and this, with his magnetic personality and Mephlsto appearance, goes a long way toward making his performances .the striking success that they always are. He announces a matinee to-day with tricks especially for the ladles and children, and will close his engagement with 'to-night's performance. Amutenipnt IVote. The regular season at English's Opera House will practically close with the engagement of "The Tide of Life" Company, which begins Monday night. The engagement of J. W. Harrington in "Rube Htacy" will close with the performance this evening. N. S. Wood will begin his week's engagement Monday afternoon with his sensational drama, "Out in the Streets." "True to the Last," will be tho attraction at the Kmpire Theater, commencing Monday matinee. The company is headed by the character actor T. B. Alexander. The play is produced and staged under the direction of the author and new and special scenery and stage effects are used, consisting of the Hrooklvn. hridpe hy moonlight. the burning of the old Rookery at Five Points, the great escape from the Mexican gold mine and the great fire scene. THE GENTLEMAN FROM MONTANA. Greek In form and face, American as to dress; his features bronzed by tho Western winds, but clear cut and warm. His brown skin was well matched by his dark eyes and light mustache, and he carried himself with a certain grace that comes only from a wide acquaintance with mankind: I at first Imagined in him one of the young heroes of the bands of Ulj'sses or Achilles. Sudden contrasts are not always pleasant, and for this reason his marked local accent Jarred almost harshly upon my dream. He spoke: "It was up in Montana in '91, just before the Great Northern came through, and them was great times for booms. Our town was forty miles beyond the end of the railroad, and you can imagine how things was. Beds: they wasn't any bedsjust straw. When people got beds they thought they was in heaven. A peddler came up there with a bale of socks and pretty near made his fortune. They sold for $- or $3 a pair. I and another party started in as soon as the spring opened the passes and before long we had $oO,oX worth of property in that town. You see it was this way. When we first went up there we saw how things was running, and after learning the. ropes we took a little 25x25 lot and put u. a double house on it. We rented the ups.talr3 for $5U and the downstairs for W a month. Pretty soon a fellow came along and took the whole shebang for $1,300. Then r- got all the men in town and paid 'em Oh. any price SG, $7, $10 a day; made a contract with the mill owners for all the lumber they coul l turn out and hniled it all over to our end of the town. Then we went over to the mountains and cut off a lot of mountain pinos ant Ftuck 'em along the Hides of tho streets without any roots, and it made the prettiest looking street you ever taw. Then we had things mighty lively for a while. We got all the business down to our end of the town ar. 1 had everything all our own way. We were the people. "Ml-jrhtv funny thinj? about thosv. towns, the people follow each other just like so many sheep. When a n.an sets the fellow next to him stop work he quits too. and rretty soon the whole business stop3. If something should hapren the people p.re just liable to move out during the niht, start at midnight or any time and leave the place deserted. "Well, th.U's the way it was with us. You see Jim HUl. the president of the road, he saw how things was going and moved the raProad two miU-s further south. We see it want no use for us to stay and buck against him; the town was bound to be where the road was, and so we just natchelly left." "Loose all your money?" asked a listener. "No, we only had CS"0 in the first place, and I came back to Indianapolis with a grip full." x it.

GORBY ON HIS SPEEE

The State of Indiana Farther Disgraced hy This Oflicial. It Takes Four Policemen to Corral the State Geologist and Land Him at the Police Station. Sylvester S. Gorby, State Geologist, occupied a bunk at police headquarters last night. Tho eminent gentleman who presides over the scientific department of Indiana was drunk gloriously and uproariously so. Hl3 libations, begun early in the evening, had reached a state at 10 o'clock that to load him in the patrol wagon at the Spencer House necessitated the combined strength of four policemen. Sylvester began with the shades of night. All day yesterday he spent with his rocks, and by nighttime had little difficulty in persuading himself that his scientific researches la the rock line required oil. Just to smooth the grooves. Naturally enough, when the scholar finds himself laboring with a particularly rare specimen of rock his mind reverts to rye. It is ever thus with Mr. Gorby, and was so last evening. Last night the Professor's creative brain evolved the happiest combination of "rock and rye," and so Jubilant did he become over the gem that he set out at once to make an experiment. He was delighted wdth the result at the outset and continued to pursue his researches. How he reached the Union Station he did not remember, but when he was found by patrolmen Klmple and Johnson he was floundering around the sheds distressingly drunk. Professor Gorby believed that he wanted to go to West Indianapolis, and was undecided as to the train he should take. The patrolman persuaded the Professor that it was best to defer the trip and told him to go home. He declined to seek his couch at an hour so unfashionable, and the patrol wagon was summoned. At the station the Professor retired early and was soon enjoying a peaceful slumber. He was somewhat disgusted when he found that he was to be locked up, and observed to the turnkey ithat he (Gorby) was spending a great deal of money with the city lately. These escapades of the State Geologist are growing to be disgustingly frequent. There is a provision of the State law which provides for. the prosecution of an offense of this sort In the Circuit Court of the county where the offense is committed. A State officer. who commits two or more offenses may be relieved of his office by charges being preferred by the Governor or any citizen to the Judge of the Circuit Court. Gorby can be removed if the Governor sees -fit. HEAL-ESTATE TRANSFERS. Fifteen Transfer Yeter1ny, with n Total Consideration of $14,150.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: There seems to be much dissatisfaction among the local colored politicians because, of the failure to receive recognition from the present city administration. There have been on file in the city engineer's office for the last month petitions of five colored applicants for positions in the engineer's department and it seems as if these petitions are going to be ignored. With the assurance that no more appointments were to be made until after the civil-service rules were in effect, the applicants left their fate In the hands of the board of examiners. Since then there have been two appointments made but the colored applicants were not given consideration. Indianapolis, April 5. Father Clurlce'n Lecture. Rev. Francis E.

A FEARFUL SUSPENSE.

She Thought It Would Never End. Suspense is an awful thing. People suffer month after month from various troubles hoping yet doubting. Thousands of persons are injuring their health and breaking down under a load they cannot bear. They find they are getting nervous, irritable, they can't sleep and often have headache. There is not the slightest need to live on this way, for you can be cured just as well as not. Mrs. E. A. Williams, of Franklin, Mass., has suffered terribly from her nerves and ill health, but she is now well and tells in the following letter Just how to be cured: "I was completely broken down In health. My nerves were all unstrung and exhausted. I could not sleep nights and my limbs trembled all the time. It was evident there was a terribly diseased condition of my nerves.
