RAILWAY TIME WAR

ISTEItCSTIXG FIGHT BETIVCCX TUG PEXASYLVAMA AXD lilG FOUL Fast linns on the Panhandle and' Old' Dec Line Railroad CommUsIoneti r on an Inspection Trip. Nearly thirty Iaya ago the Biff Four, In connection with the Vanderbilt lines Hast, put on a new train, known aj the Knickerbocker, to make the run from St. Louis to New York in twenty-nine hours, and from Iniianapoll3 to New York ia twenty-two and one-half hours. The Vandalla and the Pennsylvania lines, to meet this, did not put on a new train, but shortened the time of the trains 20 and 21, making- the run from St. LouU to New York in twentynine hours, and from IndIanapoll3 to New York In twenty-two and three-fourths fcour3. Since that time the Vandalia and' the Pennsylvania have been chaflng somewhat that the Big Four and the Vanderbllt line 3 should make the run from Indianapolis to New York fifteen minutes the quick-, est, and a3 they have experienced no' trouble in making the shorter time of three weeks past with trains 2) and 21, they now contemplate shortening: ths time of these trains forty-five minutes between St. Louis &nd New York, and a half hour between Indianapolis and New York, making the run in the former case forty-five minutes quicker than the Ulg Four and the Vanderbilt llne3, and fifteen minute3 quicker time between Indianapolis and New York. What steps the Bis Four and the Vandalla lines will take will be watched with interest, as there are indications of a time war, which Is certainly more Interesting than a rate war. Illinois Railroad Commissioners. The Railroad Commissioners of Illinois, vth.0' this week have been Inspecting the Big Four lines, and came over on Monday to ipend the night In Indianapolis, returned west yesterday morning1, going south yesterday over th Cairo division of the Big Four. In the party are Mr. H M. Neal, superintendent of the St. Louis division; W. IL Duane, civil engineer, Mattoon, IlL; W. O. Bailey, superintendent of the Cairo division. The commission consists of C. F. Lake, of Springfield, 111. ; W. S. Cantwell, Of Benton, IlL, nd Thomas Gallon, of Chicago. The commissioners have a special train, two coaches and . ' dining- car. In commenting on the condition of the Big Four lines, Mr. Lake, chairman of the commission, said: "The Big Four, on Its main line in Illinois, has five miles of stone ballast and twenty-one miles of gravel, put In this year, and two miles of new track near Fast St. Louis, malting in all five miles of double track east. They have this year put In eight miles of eighty-pound new steel rails. 85.0OJ ties and have changed all wooden bridges to stone culverts, making the system absolutely safe. We found the rolling stock In excellent condition and the road in first-class shape. We inspected the shops at Mattoon and found them very neat and tidy." . A Couple of Fast Runs. Track and weather conditions are very favorable to fast running with safety, and the transportation departments are not as trict as usual in the holding of trains to the time schedule, as Is evidenced in the fast runs now making, as reported from day to day. Yesterday Train 21, from the 25ast, was turned over to the Panhandle at Columbus fifty-three minutes late, and It Arrived at Indianapolis on schedule time, covering the 1SS miles, making eight stops at railroad crossings and stations, in four hours and twenty-two minutes. The train consisted of six cars, Including three sleepers. An equally good run was made on the Jl-llne division of the Big Four. The Lake Shore turned Train 17 over to the Big Four at Cleveland late. Some of the time was made up before Muncle was reached. Here the train crew was given orders to come in on time, and the run from Muncie to Indianapolis, fit ty-flve miles, was made In . Blxty-flve minutes, a stop being made at Ande3on and running slow after reaching the city limits. In this train were six cars. Including two Wagner sleeping- cars. To Readjust Ileadlnsr Affairs. blaster George L. Crawford has filed in the United States Circuit Court, at Philadelphia, a favorable report on the petition of the receivers of the Philadelphia & Reading company for authority to enter Into -in agreement for the partial readjustment of the affairs of the Philadelphia & Reading railroad and coal and iron companies and to make the payments therein f rovlded if the plan be carried Into effect, n brief, the petition asks that the receivers be granted permission to puy per cent, commission, which amounts to about $400,000. for underwriting the OlcottEarle reorg-anlzatlcn plan. After reviewing the testimony presented at the hearing on the ICth of this month the master states that he 1b of the opinion that the prayer of the petition should be granted. The report will be considered hy Judge Dallas out ef court and will be decided finally In a few days. -.. Illinois Central "Kick.'. The advisory committee of the Immigrant clearing house of the Western Passenger Association was In session at Chicago yesterday to consider the attitude of the Canadian Faclflc toward the emigrant- rates, and to consider the advisability of meeting the rates of that line. After a discussion that took up the entire afternoon the meeting was adjourned until this morning, when It is hoped that some action will be taken. Before taking up the question of emigrant .rates the meeting considered the request f the Illinois Central for a rate of $100 from Chicago to the Pacific coast, via New Orleans. Some time ago when the Illinois Central asked for permission to put in this rate, and met with a refusal. It gave notice of withdrawal from the association, but was finally induced to remain, with the understanding that the matter would be settled at a meeting to be held at some later date. . B------S-S . Secret Meetlnic nt Clevelnnd. The meeting of the Central Traffic Association at Cleveland, yesterday, was without results. Commissioner Blanchard presided. The entire day was devoted to discussion, the subjects under consideration being "Freight Rates and Their Manipulations," 'Through Passenger Fares and Differential Questions," "Passenger Commissions and Divisions." SpecIal Freight Contracts," "Apportionment of Freight Tonnage. Mileage for Private Cars" and "Pending Legislation on Traffic Agreements." The meeting was held in secret and It was announced that no questions had been decided. Committees were appointed to consider the various matters discussed. Those committees will report to-day, when the association will take some kind of action. Personal, Local nntl Gfueral Notes. The Wagner company has dropped the price of berths. Indl.inapolls to St. Louis, on local sleeping coach to $1.50. Some predict that vldace F. Walker will to-morrow, at the annual meeting, be elected president or the Santa Fe. At the annual meeting of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company the present board cf directors was re-elected. At the Ohio Falls c.r works all departments are in cperat.'on, employing ,iKut two-thirds the usual good t!mM force. The tide has turned with the?

industries have been laid. Of these switches 151 are located on tracks of the Jiig Four system. It is stated by one who has looked into the matter that at no railroad center in this country, except Chicago, can as many switches leading to industries be found. The Terre Haute car works are running with about r per cent, of tlieir usual force 'and are building 150 cars for the Vandalia .arid doing a large amount of repair work. Earnings of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.- Paul for the third week in October amounted to i,051, a decrease of 2il,lK from the corresponding week of last year. The Pennsylvania Company has contracted with the Ohio Falls car works to e-juip one thousand cars they are building for tha Pennsylvania Company with the Wagner grain door. The report that the coupons of the Louisville, EvansviJIe & St. Louis are being paid 13 denied by teicrarh from New York, and it Is sail that holders of these coupons cannot collect them. Commencing with the first of the month, the dining cars run over the Vandalla ai.d the Pennsylvania lines will run Letween St. Louis and Newark, O., Instead of stopping at Columbus, as has been the practice. The recent additional lsue of $2,500,0'iO first collateral trust mortgage 4 per cent. gDld bonds on tha St. Louis division of the C, C, C. & St. L. make3 the total amount of first-mortgage bonds of this character listed tf.KO.m. The Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton passenger department expects to carry thne or four thousand people into Cincinnati next Sunday on the fl round trip rate from Indianapolis and other points on the Indianapolis division. Judge Bacon, general TVestern agent of the Chicago & Rock Island; George T. Clunnip, general Eastern apent of the Santa Fe, and C. C. Merrill, Southwestern passenger agent of the New York Central, aro in the city on official business. There is a htavy demand for freight equipment, and General Agent Wagner says" that all the equipment companies are doing their best to supply it. Not in, the last two years have the equipment companies enJoyed as good a buslne?s as at present. The train schedule of the new union station at Boston, which is occupied by the lloaton & ilalne, the -Eastern and the Fltchburg1 roads, shows that evory twentyfour hours 58 trains arrive and depart. In one of the morning hours flfty-eignt trains are handled in sixty minutes. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois earned in the second week of October Jbo.171, a decrease as compared with the corresponding week of 18a3 of $27,283. A llt?ht coal traffic and a lighter passenger traific than in the corresponding week last year are the causes of the unfavorable exhibit. The contractors who started to build the Cincinnati, Union City & Chicago road are said to have gotten on to their feet financially again, and expect to soon resume the buildings of the partially con

structed road. Seventeen miles are now graded, bridges built and crossties distributed. The order of the general manager, to the effect that any employe of the Nortluni Pacific who has intn'nir to do with politics should be discharged, is a more serious matter than the Lrt rcal'n of the item mfght convey. It ia-stated that over thirty of the employes have been nominated for some public office by political parties. The Vandalia is filling up with broken stone the ground where their loading; and unloading tracks, at the corner of Pennsylvania street and the Union tracks, are located. These tracks will be a great convenience to the commission merchants, as the Vandalla will place all its cars shipped In here loaded with tropical fruit on these tracks for unloading. S. II. II. Clark, president and one of the receivers of the Union Pacific, has so far regained his health that he is devoting his whole time to the interests cf the road. Receiver Mink has gone to Uoston to negotiate with the Oregon Railway and Navigation management regarding a division of traffic, but It is thought he will be unable to accomplish what he desires. A stockholders' meeting ef the Southern Railway Company was held at Richmond, Va., yesterday, at which directors were elected as follows: Charles II. Coster, II. C. Fahnenstock, Samuel Spencer, Samuel Thomas, Anthony J. Thomas and J. Hood Wright, of New York: A. U Boulware, president of the First National Bank, and Sklpwlth Wilmere, a prominent lawyer of Baltimore. A number of missionaries en route to Japan and China passed through here yesterday, coming up from Louisville. They were taken In charge by District Passenger Agent Turner on reaching Indianapolis, who went with them as iar as St. Paul to see that the Northern Pacific, which he represents In ttAs territory, started them properly. There were eleven In the missionary party. The fast train the Big Four recently put on, known as the Knickerbocker, is surprising Passenger TralHc Manager McCormlck by the large number of passengers it Is carrying. Since Mr. MzCormick went to the Rig Four it has ben a favorite Idea with him to have an afternoon train out of St. Louis and an evening train out of Indianapolis. At Anderson, Muncie, Union and other points where the train stops It is meeting with much favor. The two factions who respectively represent the "Protective reorganization committee" and the "general reorganization committee," of the Santa Fe railway, nre now at Topeka. The former is composed of ex-Secretary of the Navy Tt. F. Tracy, Theo. W. Meyers, Newman E. Smith, E. B. Taylor. Wm. P. Smith and II. D. Kyle, and are at the Hotel Throop. The latter Is headed by B.

Robinson delivered his annual address in which he said It was not necessary to recall the abuses heaped upon the farmer by the bribe-cursed minions of the money monger, nor to discuss the right of the farmer to enter politics.
