VIEWING THEIR EOAD OFFICERS OF Tim PEXXSYLVAXIA OX THEIR AXXUAI. ROUNDS. Thoronffh Inspection of the Property In Thin City Presidents' Ajfree- . ment Further Chnnsed. The inspection party of the Pennsylvania, lines, with President Roberts at Its head, arrived in the city yesterday. On arriving at the shops the party made a stop of one hour, making a thorough Inspection, and it need not be a surprise, as a result of the visit, thouM the shops be further enlarged. While at the shops the wrecking crew was utes the engine was attached to the wrecking train and twenty men were on the train ready to start, which excited "much favorable comment on the part t the visitors, as no preparation had been made for calling out the crew. The party then came on to the Union Station, stopping twenty minutes to enable the new directors and stockholders who were in the party to look over the station and its surroundings, with which they were very favorably impressed. The party then started for Terre Haute, where they will stop over night. Inspecting the St. Louis division to-day. Vice Presidents McCrea, Ilrooks and Davidson and General Superintendent Miller were with the prty, and here they were met by General Manager Williams, of the Vandilia, Oeneral Superintendent Elliott, and Harry Miller, superintendent of the Vandalkt main line. To the question, "Do you think the presidents" agreement of the trunk lines Is to be adopted?" President Roberts answered, "Yes. but I think it will need further modification before all parties interested will fax their names to it. It Is a better thing for the public than for the railroad owners." Regarding the condition of the Pennsylvania lines as shown thus far on the inspection trip, he said It was very gratifying to not the excellent physical condition of the property, and the situation generally, especially the Improvement in business noticeable in the sections of country which they had passed through In the last few dave. Mr. McCrea, president of the Union Railway Company, was met by Auditor Vlnnedge, who had a number of vouchers for him to approve, among which was o.ie for the payment of the taxes of the Union Railway Company. rhanxrea.ln President' Agreement. It is said on good authority that the next meeting of the trunk line presidents will be held Oct. 31. The same authority says the committee of ten appointed by the presidents to further revise the proposed trafTlc agreement have completed thlr labors and are prepared to report. The premature publication of the agreement has ccmewhat embarassed the officials, for a number cf changes have been made in its published form. These Include the abolition money for tho detection of rate violations, and the examination of oaleials "under oath," on all charges of the same nature. The "under oath" feature of this section of the agreement has been stricken out. According to a well-informed official, there has been a general shifting of the sections of the agreement on account of the changes, but the main features remain undisturbed. The nine systems, from each one of which a director will be chosen, arc rr.ade up as follows: Grand Trunk svstem, now comprising the Grand Trunk of Canads, ard Its afhllation west of the St. Clair river, viz: The Chicago & Grand Trunk. Detroit. Grand Haven & Milwaukee. Michigan Air Line, Cincinnati, Saginaw & Mackinaw, and the Toledo, Saginaw & Muskegon. Vanderbllt system, now comprising the Ner York Central, West Shore. Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg. Wallkill Valley. Ceech Creek, Dunkirk, Allegheny Valley & Pittsburg, Lake Shore, Pittsburg & Lake Eri;. Michigan Central and its leased lines. Canada Southern and Its leased lines, and t-v. Nickel-plate. LcUawanna system, now comprising the LacLawanna and its leased line, ana the Lyracuse, BInghamton & New York. Lehlsh Valley system, now comprising the Lehl-a Valley and all the roads composing its system. Krle system, now comprising the' Erie, by it receiver, and the Chicago Jfc Erie.

Wabash system, now comprising the Wabash and its leased lines eist of the Mississippi river. The Monon'a Wonderful Feat. A Ul?patch from Chicago, dated Friday, says: For the first time since the civil war, the Mason and Dixoa line was announced to-day as having been permanently wiped off the railroad map of the United States. The change Is one of the results of the Atlanta exposition, and the Monon route is the road on which the historic record is made. General Passenger A?ent F. J. Reed, of the Monon, stated to-day that success has at last crowned the efforts of the Monon to secure a fast train from Chicago to Atlanta. It has ma le definite arrangements with the Louisville & Nashville, the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Loui3 and the Western Atlantic to make such connections with Its trains from Chicago to Louisville ch will amount to a through route between the two cities. Thi. train will begin running Oct. 1U It will leave Chicago at 10:15 a. m. and arrive in Atlanta at 11:15 next morning, thus making the run In twentvfive hours. Heretofore in the great territory from Cairo, III., at the mouth of the Ohio, as far east as the Allegheny mountains, the brctik in continuous travel north and south across the old sectional line has been almost as complete, so far as the railroad system of the country Is concerned, as if the ancient Imaginary hostile line had been a veritable Chinese wall. General Passenger Agent Reed and the other Monon officials were kept busy to-day with congratulations from all quarters, particularly the larger cities Jn the Ftates mostly affected by the change. A dispatch from Crawfordsville. Ind., says: Superintendent Lowell, of the Monon, was at Crawfordsville yesterday and told a reporter that the new through train between Chicago and Atlanta over the Monon will be the fastest train in the world on a single track. From Monon to Bloomlngton, 133 miles, will be made in 1"0 minutes, not including the time taken for nine stops. Southern Ilailvrny Agreement. The convention of the Southern railway and steamship lines, which has been in session at New York since Tuesday, has finally resulted in an agreement 'between those lines which are members of the old Southern Railway and Steamship Association and several other important lines that were not members and whose absence from that association materially weakened its

operation. The last of the necessary signatures were obtained late Thursday afternoon and the Southern States Freight Association was completed yesterday by the election of Colonel H. Haines, formerly the vice president of the Plant system, as commissioner, K. B. Stahlman having positively declined to allow his name to be put in nomination. The association contract takes effect on Oct. 21. The prospect for maintenance of rates and increase of. revenue of the Southern railway lines is said to be better than it has been for years. w Passenger Agreement. General passenger agents of the Western roads virtually finished the drafting of their new agreement at Chicago yesterday. There are ono or two points on which the roads are not entirely agreed, and further consideration has beta postponed until Wednesday next, when there will be another meeting for the tinal ratification of the new agreement. As now prepared, the document does not differ materially from that which was drafted for the transmissouri roads about six weeks ago, but which failed of adoption. It is in a great measure a good-faith agreement, containing no penalty clause. Greater liberty of action is provided for individual lines. Personal, Local and General .NotesSamuel Felton, president and receiver of tho Queen & Crescent, is now in New York city. James F. Goddard on Nov. 1 will have been commissioner of the Trunk Lines Association live years. It is stated that a larger ne - railway mileage Is projected for Michigan in 1KJ than in any year since 18V. Under the changes in time card on the Vandalia the through Sunday trains between Indianapolis and SL Louis will be much heavier. The Chicago & Northwestern is making extensive improvements to its Madison division, among other things equipping it with a block system. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois, like the Monon and the Pennsylvania lines, will put on a new fast train between Chicago and Atlanta via Evansville. The Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton expects to get two of Jts three new freight engines next week. They will be placed in service on the main line. Some of the shippers who were holding off. a month ago, anticipating lower eastbound rates are now so anxious for cars that they will pay premiums to obtain them. T. A. Swltz, formerly chief clerk of E. B. Thomas, when general manager of the Beeline, is now assistant to the president of the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie. The Big Four will run a cheap excursion from points tn its Michigan division to Louisville on Sunday and expects such a business that three trains of ten coaches each are to be provided. Three Southern lines still refuse to join the Southern Freight Association, assigning as a reason for withholding their signatures that there is no guarantee that rates are to be maintained. Tho Lehigh Valley road has contracts out for two thousand coal and box cars. In the last four months thirty engines have been added to its power, part of them being built at the company's shops. Owing to the scarcity of cars at railroad points where there are car rervice associations the rules are being rigidly enforced, forty-eight hours being the limit a car can be held for loading or unloading. J. W Musson, general .nanager of the West Shore fast freight line, and W. H. Smith, general manager of the Lackawanna lines. are In the city on official business. Both have recently returned from Europe. The United States Kxpress Company has issued a circular stating that It has been decided to pay no dividend, although the business of the company in the last year shows a conslJerable increase over that of the preceding year. The St. Charles car works are building some large freight cars for the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago, wnleh, it is stated, are the best built freight cars in every respect ever turned out in he country, the company paying what it is worth to build such a car. The directors of the Baltimore & Ohio decided to pass the semi-annual dividend on common stock. The earnings of the last six months- would pay a 2 per cent, dividend on this stock, but the directors deem it advisable to hold the money for other purposes. H. . C' Parker, traffic manager of the Brlco syndicate lines, returned yesterday fram Cleveland, whither he went to confer with C..A. Barnard, assistant general freight agent of the Cleveland. Akron & Columbus, one of the recently acquired Brlco syndicate lines. The Lafayette Courier gives nearly a page of its space to cuts and description of the new shops of the Louisville, New Albanv & Chicago at that city, which cost 3127,000 and are a credit to the company and a valuable addition to the manu- 1 facturlng interests of Lafayette. I Central Tranic Association roals have announced their intention to-day of Joining with tho Illinois Central in It. homeeekers excursions to points south of the Ohio river Nov. 12 and Dec. 10. The rate from Central Traffic terrttoi-y will be one fare, plus f-. for the round trip. To-morrow a new tialn schedule goes Into effect on the Vandalia and trains 1 and 10, which have run for many years, will bo taken off: Train 3 will earn' the mall which Train 1 has been carrylnz and it will consequently reach Indianapolis earlier than now: Train Zl will also haul an additional postal car. E. If. lAtta, chief medical examiner of the Pennsylvania Voluntary Relief Association on linos east of Pittsburg, with headquarters at Philadelphia, and a party of nine ladies and gentlemen were in the city yesterday en route home from an extended Southern trip. The party 'ravels in an elegant private car. One of the new Class P engines on the Pennsylvania is to be sent West and its speed tested on the Chicago division, where, a few days ago. a Class p engine with nvfoot driving wheel hauled three cars 131 miles in 131 minutes. A Cla P engine, with Irs seven-foot driving wheel, should lower that record surprisingly. U. M. Arnold, general freight agent of the Louisville, New Albany vC- Chicago, with the approval of Vice President and General .Manager MeDoel, 'has appointed Albert C Tun'y assistant general freight ngent of th company, with headquarters at Chfrafro, am', W. H. Newman division freight agent, with hcac'quarters at Louisville. The appointments become effective to-day. President Caldwell, of the Iuke Shore road. In speaking of the city government of Cleveland firing the lake front, raid: "The city mad a bold stroke, but when we get throu-h with our side of the story Msycr McIIlrroa and fcis oCciala may bo

sorry they made the move. The land belongs to the Lake Shore and the city has overreached Itself In confiscating the property without making remunerative overtures." Three of the lines Interestei in Southwestern business announced yesterday that they had agreed to mak a cne-fare rate for the round trip to Hot Springs for the prize fight. These roads were the Illinois Central, the Wabash and the Alton. This action was taken despite the refusal of all the other lines to authorize such a proceeding. Tickets will be on sale from Oct. 13 to 2?, Inclusive, and good for return until Nov. 15. The Paducah, Tennessee & Alabama railroad was sold yesterday to Judge J. W. Phillips, or bt. iouis. by Special commis sioner J. R. Puryear, of Paducah, and A. jt. Lamb, or Paris, Tenn., ror Twenty thousand dollars was paid in cash, and the remainder will bo paid hereafter. as directed by the federal court. The sale was made under order of the federal court under foreclosure proceedings. It is pre sumed that the road was bought In for the bondholders. The Brooks locomotive works have com menced the delivery to the Lake Shore : Michigan Southern of the new ten-wheel en gines which they are constructln? for that company. These engines are duplicates of those with .b-Inch drivers .formerly furnished to that company by the Brooks works, with the exception that the boilers are two Inches larger In diameter and the engines have steel driving-wheel centers. It is expected that the weight saved by the substitution of steel driving-wheel centers for cast Iron will offset the additional weight of a boiler two fnches larger in diameter. An old-time railroad official on the Pennsylvania lines was yesterday speaking of fast runs, and made the statement that In a special train was hauled over what is now the Panhandle line from Indianapolis to Columbus, O., 1S8 miles. In four hours and twelve minutes. William Lowther was the engineer, and when he stepped from the footboard of his engine at Columbus he suffered a stroke of paralysis from which he never recovered. The physicians attributed it to the great strain and excitement in making the run. Preparatory to making the run section men were placed all along the road, street crossings were guarded and switches watched closely. ' N. E. Weeks, secretary of the New England Passenger Association, has submitted a proposition to the other passenger associations throughout the country that they abolish the Joint agencies In connection with all convention business ana substitute for it an elaborate eystem of stamping tickets. His objection to the joint agency plan is that it is .too expensive and does not afford sufficient pro tection against scalping. So far as tho Central Traffic and Western roads, are concerned, they consider that Mr. Weeks's substitute would be still more expensive and would afford, less protection. They will adhere to the joint agency plan for the present. Thero was a meeting of the stockholders of the Central Railroad and Banking Company, at Atlanta, yesterday, at which the new charter, granted by the Secretary of State, was received, a temporary board of directors chosen and a vice president, general counsel and treasurer chosen. The new name of the corporation is the Central of Georgia Railway Company. The directors elected were: Gen. Sam Thomas, president; Thomas Ryan, of New York: Henry Crawford, of New York; R. L. Anderson, of New York; B. W. Wrenn, Jr., S. T. Weyman, George W. Conners, Hanson Jones, of Atlanta, and William Toomer, of Waycross, Ga. Mr. R. L. Anderson was selected vica president; Henry Crawford, general counsel, and W. A. C. Kwlng, treasurer. The Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton and tho Belt road company of Toledo are engaged in an ugly light over the Belt road company not handling cars of the C, II. & I. Some time ago the Belt line Issued a circular to the effect that it would not deliver any other than Wheeling coal to factories on its line. Now that the light is on, the C, If. & D. is going to make the Belt line recede from this position. There are several factories on the Belt line which are heavy coal consumers, and the C, II. &. D. is after their trade. The C, H. & D. has also another grievance against the Belt line. The latter has been charging th C, H. & D. for switching cars from its yards to the O. C. and Pennsylvania. As this is over the C, H. & D. property, that road claims it is unjust. Unless the Belt line concedes these two points, in the future the C, H. & D. says it will not allow the Belt line to run its cars over the C, H. & D. property. P. A. Bonebrake, superintendent of the Louisville division of the Pennsylvania lines, was in the city last evening, lie has just issued an official bulletin showing the business the division handled In the week of the G. A. R. meeting at Louisville. The total number of trains handled on the block system was 1.426, distributed as follows: Sunday, 14S; Monday, 210; Tuesday, 2T.7; Wednesday. 20C; Thursday, 2U: Friday, 138; Saturday, 187 an average of 'Jr2 2-7 per day. Trains handled over the Louisville bridge: Sunday, 134: Monday, 184; Tuesday, 223; Thursday, 204; Friday, 178: Saturday, 1C5. Total, l.91: daily average, 1S4C-7. The largest number of suburban passengers handled one day was 011 Thursday, Sept. 12, when 23.441 was the number reported. The largest previous day's collection of suburban tickets was on March 27, 1830, day after the cyclone, which amounted to 11.6GL It is shown in the grand total of the passengers handled on the Louisville division during the encampment week that about 120,000 tickets were taken up. PERSPECTIVE IN ART. Hovr Otherwise Fine Work Is Spoiled 1- tlie roreffround. Two forms of art were considered last evening by Mr. W. M. R. French.-in-his lecture at Plymouth Church in tht; university extension course. The subjects were illustrated by the blackboard. Conventionalization was the first. Mr. French showed with his chalks and crayon how natural things are conventionalized in pictorial art. He mentioned the Moorish forms in tho Alhambra and tho Persian forms In rugs, which are almost crude, and the familiar Grecian border, the scroll pattern and the Alhambra ornaments. In the drawings he made a picture of the natural Knglish ivy leaf in its green color; then In the conventionalized form. Another drawing was of the Grecian honey suckle with crimson buds and green leaves. This was reduced In the same way. The papyrus and lotus in Egyptian architecture were also shown. As he was making the drawing Mr. French remarked that "the lotus has left Egypt and is now found near Chicago and In other parts of the Mississippi valley, where It is known as the pond lily. The papyrus is found in the greenhouses everywhere. It is one of the much 'used decorative plants. Every art is limited by conditions and by the material used. The sculptor cannot make in stone and marble the ilneness of a hair and so he has to represent It by locks of hair. To conventionalize forms Is to do the mechanical side of tine art. As a final picture the classic figure of a woman was drawn, the one often seen in pictorial art. This was changed to the amusing sido when Mr. French made It srve as an Illustration for the rhyme "Little maid, pretty maid, whither guest thou? I go to the meadow to milk my cow." A milk pall and stool metamorphosed the clasic into the pastoral and to the picture was added the figure of a dude and off In the distance was the small silhouette of a cow. The second form of art was the perspective. The first was the aerial perspective. This shows an object seen through an atmosphere, which makes it dim and modlttes the color. The other lineal perspective, which lessens the object by distance. Anything seen through a haze shows the first and a common example of the latter Is the railroad track, which seems to run to a point. The perspective of a picture is made stronger 5jy a foreground. "Some very good artists are careless in their sketches and make poor porpective," Mr. French remarked. As an illustration of perspective Mr. French drew a representation of a picture by David Roberts. It showed camels. hun?ea and men In the foreground and away in the distance a view of the city. The distanced was heightened by the picture having the strong foreground. The lecture was completed with the u-iual stereoptlccn. views to illustrate what had been said. EACH LOSES THREE FINGERS. Two Mru Get Their Hand Mixed Vp with Machinery. Samuel Fine, living at No. 101 Ccrbett street and employed at the Outing bicycle factory, had three fingers mashed while at work yesterday morning. At the City Hospital It was found necessary to amputate the Injured members.

ELUCIDATION AND nEVIEW OF IX. TEIirVATIOYAL LKSSOV, OCT. 20. Ruth's Choice, im Kelntetl In Ruth 1, Verse 14-U2--A llenutlful .nrmtlve of Love and S'ncrlflce. By REV. JAMES E. CILRERT. D. D.. Secretary cf the American -Society cf Religious Education. (Thee lessons' constituto the Sundayschool extension department of the above named society. All who study them are requested to send their names, postofllce address and denomination, mentioning ths paper, to the author at Wasbington, D. C, for enrollment.) BOOK. There is much diversity of opinion concerning the authorship of the little book from which our lesson is taken. Conservative scholars, following the views of Jewish rabbis and many of the Christian fathers, assign it to Samuel, or to some member of the school of the prcphets over which he presided. They hold it as a connecting link between the books of Judges and of First Samuel.. Recent critics are disposed to a later date, giving it to some unknown writer, whose chief purpose was, as they think, to trace the pedigree of David. (Ruth iv, 1S-22.) The book has been highly and Justly prized by all classes. Professor Steenstra, of Cambridge Divinity School, says, what most students will approve, that, "it incloses a garden of roses, as fragrant and full of mystic calyxes as those which modern travelers find" twining and blooming about the solitary ruins of Israel and Moab." Its delineation of character, its descriptions of Oriental domestic life, its high moral and religious tone, render It especially valuable to students of human nature, of archaeology and of religion. STORY. -The book will be best appreciated if read entire at a single sitting. Cut the following outline' of Its narrative will prepare for the study of our selected passage.

It la strange that In this expression of poverty she made no reference to Huth. the one who had with beautiful devotion consecrated her all to become her comfort and support. It is possible that the greater sorrow for the time qu'te drove out of her thought this solitary source of consolation; and it is even possible that the presence of the Moablte at that time. In view of the uncertainty' of the future, was cause for added sorrow. Tender and symapthetlc souls are grieved when they can do nothing for those who confide in them. CONCLUSION. The central figure in our lesson is Ruth. It was'very proper to give her name to the book, for she is its heroine. The great thought is the power of love not love between man and woman, the theme of the novelist (Song vil, 10); not love of man for man (I Sam. vlii, 1), the theme of fraternity; not the love of God to man (John lii. . 36), the theme of redemptionbut love of woman for woman. Ruth's affection for Naomi, recognized in Ilethlehem UtuthMv, 15), was of tho purest, most unselftsh, most extraordinary kind a widow for a widow, a daughter-in-liw for a mother-in-law, a Moabltess for a Jewess. It endured the severest test, and made the largest possible acrlttce. Whence came that love? What caused It to spring up in the heart of one who had been raised outside the household of faith, who had worshiped idols? Was it a product of wedded life? Did Chillon, the lamented husband, carry into his home such reverence for Ood and mother as to win his wife? Was Naomi so beautiful and lovins as to draw out tender emotions like the tendrils of the vine? Did divine grace -work In Ruth's heart? Or, was she a beautiful flower, enpearlng to show the rarely possible of tne heathen world? Whatever the origin, it is worthy a place in the inspired book. (I John IV, 7, 8.) In III Kingdom. A soul set free came trembling through the night, And stood, all naked, in the judgment light. "Alas, she cried, "so pressed with life was I, No epace I found to teach me how to die. "Unhrlven I came; 1 was so full of care No time had I for pennance or for prayer. "1 dwelt where men were in such evil cs.se. Their woful eyes still held me to my place. "Nor did I heed my garments', fret and stain. K po I misht a little ease their pain. "And scarce my thought from haunting care could stay To say at morn, Ah, Uord, another day. "But flying still, and followed hard by fear, I loved and tolled, and waked, to And me here." Then round the naked soul the judgment Grew,htlike a lily's bloom, to garments white; And a new dawn of rapture and surprise Shone through the doubt and sorrow of her eyes. As a voice whispered: "Since thou dost not fear To drink my cup on earth, come, share it here." Vnd gazing on a face unknown till now, She 'cried, exulting: "Master, It Is Thou?" The Independent. The Flece "Were Snvert. A driver of an express wagon attempted to cross Illinois street at Second yesterday morning ahead of hose wagon No. 1, while the latter was going to a fire.
