THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1897.

THE BIG FOUR IN CLOVER THE ROAD EARNED OVER ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN AIGIST. The Humored Consolidation of the Briee Lines with the C., H. A D. Questioned—The New Mileage. The Big Four in the fourth week of August earned *413,064.51; an increase over the corresponding week of 189 Cof $74,153.75. In the month of August the Big Four lines, the Peoria & Eastern not included, earned 11.245.262.46, an increase ocer August. 1896, of $127,302.64, and the business tl e road is now handling indicates that September earnings will be highly satisfactory. In August this year the Big Four proper handled, including Sundays, an average of I,ooft more loaded cars per day than in August, 1896, the a'erage movement being 5,256 loaded cars per day. A* Viewed nt a Distance. The withdrawal of the Monon from the interchangeable mileage • bureau agreement, if it has dene nothing more, has proven a big advertisement for the road. A Buffalo paper says: "mat road, being unfettered by the terms of the agreement. will be in a position to make concessions with which to secure business that will be denied the others. Asa result the business will naturally drift to it unless the lines members of the agreement can find some way of meeting the comiietition. They cannot do so through the new interchangeable ticket, for the terms ujion which that is to be sold are fixed by the terms of the agreement to which their signatures have been affixed. This mileage possibly may cost more than fares on the Alonon, and the only way the association, lines will be able to put themselves upon a basis of equality will be to n.ake open reductions in their rates and do their business on regular one-way tickets instead of on mileage. It may be that this will not be found necessary, but the most conservative of the traffic men believe the reductions will come within a short time. Not much blame is attached to tbe Monon for its action by railroad men who are not personally interested in the matter. Less than a year ago it, in common with the Big Four and the Pennsylvania, it ran its trains upon an agreed time schedule. The Big Four suddenly, and without warning to the other lines, it is said, reduced the running time of its trains between Chicago and Cincinnati and Louisville. The Mol.on, in* order to maintain its business, was obliged to make corresponding reductions. The fight resulted in the present eight-hour schedule between Chicago and Cincinnati, used by all interested lines." A Pittsburg paper credits E. A. Ford, general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines, with being the father of the new interchangeable mileage, and says: "General Passenger Agent E. A. Ford, of the Pennsylvania lines, has met with tbe opposition of many competing lines. It has been opposed by the general and district passenger agents of many other roads, and while the views of Mr. Ford on this subject have met with criticism and determined opi>osition. there is no doubt of the fact that the majority of agents are with him, and that they have been led to take their present stand througli honest and sincere cigivictions, brought about by careful consideration of the subject. While many of Mr. Ford’s contemporaries admit that he is broad-minded, l’btral and progressive, they oppose him in other ways, but the generality of the public are willing to agree to the statement tl at whatever injures the interests of the Pennsylvania lines injures the interests of all other lines which are in direct competition with that road. At Cincinnati the fight between the Monon, C., H. & D. and the Pennsylvania lines has waged hot and warm, and all sorts of rumors are circulated concerning the attitude of the strong line. An officer of the Pennsylvania savs that if the Monon imagines that the trains of the Big Four and Pennsylvania will stop running, there is a mistake somewhere. He says that the Pennsylvania will not deal with brokers, as tbe other roads intend to do, but will make the rates over the company's counters.” E. F. font May Leave the Big; Four. A rumor was current in railroad circles yesterday that E. F. Cost, general freight agent of the Big Four, was to retire from that position in the near future to take charge of the transportation matters of the P. D. Armour Company. The rumor could not be confirmed, but J. Q. Van Winkle, general superintendent of the road, and Purchasing Agent Stimson, who chanced to be in Mr. Van Winkle's office, both expressed the opinion that the report w-as not true. Mr. Van Winkle said he had always known that such a jiosition was open to Mr. Cost should he ever choose to accept it. but he thought that Mr. Cost was well satisfied with his present i>oition. and was so higlilv esteemed by President Ingalls that he could’ not lie induced to make any change. Another gentleman said that the relations between P. D. Armour and Mr. Cost have always been very cordial, and cited the fact that when Mr. Cost's child was burn Mr. Armour sent check for S2OO for the benefit of the child, being the foundation, possibly, for greater wealth, and whenever Mr. Cost and family are in Chicago Mr. Armour leaves nothing undone that will add to their pleasure. Mr. Cost succeeded Albert S. White as general freight agent of the Big Four, and is considered by Oscar Murray and other prominent railway officials one of the most callable freight men in the Central Traffic Association 'erritorv. Should the rumor prove true, it is thought the position of general freight agent of the Big Four will go to R. P. Buchanan, assistant general freu-ht agent at Cincinnati, who is considered a young man of more than ordinaryability in the freight traffic line. The Rumored Briee Deal. In railroad circles yesterday there was considerable talk about the report that a deal was about to be consummated by which the Brice syndicate was to get control of the Cincinnati, Hamilton A Dayton lines and consolidate them With the lines owned by- the Briee syndicate. Hau not H. S. Ives once by a shrewd move obtained control of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton very unexpectedly, no one would give credence to the present rumor. In speaking of this deal yesterday. R. B. F. Peffce, receiver of the Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City, said he would not blame the Brice people for desiring to get control of the 0., H. A D., which he considered one of the best railroad pi-operties west of the Allegheny mountains. Anotner railway official said; "It (he Brice i>eople could get control of the C., H. & D. it would be a great thing for them, and by consolidation w-ould make some of the roads which were |iaid for with dogs and cats of some value.” Another official said that were the rumor reversed—that the Cincinnati, Hamilton A Dayton syndicate had secured control of some of the Brice lines in Ohio —he would believe there was something in it. Another official said he could not sef how, under the laws of Ohio, these lines could be consolidated, as they were in a considerable measure parallel lines, and any attempt to consolidate them would end as did Judge Burke’s Ohio railway scheme. A railway otflcial in Cincinnati was asked what truth there was in the rumor by wire, and he answered, "It is all ’bosh.’ ’’ Trouble May Result. The roads between Chicago and St. Louis are fearful that in a short time rates from the West to Chicago will be in a state of demoralization. The action of the St. Louis roads in making lowrates for the exposition in that city and tendering these low rates to their Western connections as basing rates will make it possible for them to make low rales- through St. Louis to the East apet create an inequality against the Chicago rate. Eo meet this the Chicago roads will be compelled to lower tl eir rates, and this they are not at* all anxious to do. It is likely that the meeting of the Western Passenger Association, which is to be held irr the near future, will take some notion in the matter by which the necessity of reducing the rates may be avoided. .Some of the reads which have made the low rates to St. Louis are Chicago roads as well, but they will make an effort to keep the low rate out of the Chicago market. W ill Build a New Itoad. A dispatch from Greenfield last night says: “The manufacturers, merchants and other business men of Greenfield met to-night and decided to build the Greenfield A Maxwell Railroad. The read will be six miles long, with the northern terminus connecting with the Big Four Railroad at Maxwell and the southern terminus at Greenfield conecting with the Pennsylvania system. It will be owned and controlled by home capital and operated in the interest of Greenfield. Maxwell and Center-tdwnship gene -ally. The capital stock is placed at $50,000. with five hundred shares of slftU each. V number of shares were subscribed for to-night. The requisite number will be secured. Directors will be elected and articles of incorporation filed in a few days. The road will probably be operated by the Big Four. It will also bring another express company—the American—into this city.'] Personal. Loewi nnd General Notes. The Canadian Pacific is spending a quarter of a million dollars on its lines running through Maine. The Wabash road earned in August $1,218,180, against $1,063,205 in August, 1896, and against $1,154,870 in August, 1895. The Pennsylvania Company will on Sunday run a low rate excursion from Indianapolis to Dayton and from Madison to Dayton. President Mellen, of the Northern Pacific road, has arrived in St. Paul and relieved E. \V. Winter as the executive head of that road. The new tourist car service recently arranged covers 3.737 miles of railroad lines, holding ti.g record for long distance in the tourist field. John Malloy, for thirty years an employe c.i the Panhandle, the last fifteen years a jmssenger conductor, died at Urbana, 0., yesterday. Labor day was well observed yesterday by the railway fraternitj. Citv freight deixits were closed and the outside ticket offices alter 1 p. m. Over two thousand more freight trains were bandied on the midle division of the Pennsylvania 'lines in Aur-ust, 1*97, than in the corresponding period of PB6. Five hundred and thirty-five trains were employed in bringing the Grand Army men and their friends to the Buffalo encampment, the trains averaging eight cars each. The Salt Lake Tribune states that Gen. G. M. Dodge is to be the president of the Union Pacific, Denver A Gulf and South Park roads after the reorganization is perfected. F. T. Hatch, superintendent of the Michigan division of the Yandalia, was in the citv yesterday and left last night for Chicago to look after some matters assigned to a committee of which he is one of the members. David Patterson, who resigned recently as maste- mechanic of the Oregon Short-line, has been ap-jointed master mechanic of the southern di- \ ii.ion of the Kansas City. Pittsburg A Gulf, with headquarters at Shrevei>ort, La. The second vice presidency of the New York, Se w- Haven A Hartford, it is said, has been offered to W. F. Merrill, now general manager of .he Erie. Mr. Merrill was formerly an official on the Chicago. Burlington A Quincy. J. T. Odell, vice president of the Pittsburg, Lcebetnu- ot Lake Lrie, woo has been mentioned

in connection with the presidency of the Fitchburg road, is not eligible for the position, he having a contract covering five years with the Carnegie lines. Two vears ago. when stock of the Chesapeake A Ohio was dull at sl3 per share, President Ingalls advised a friend to purchase two hundred shares with seme loose money he had; now he can sell his holdings at double that amount, and the advance in the stock apparently has but just set in. The Panhandle, for the first time In many months, has every locomotive fit Tor service employed. The passenger business is so heavy that many of the heavy express trains are now hauled by two locomotives between Columbus ami Pittsburg. This was the case with Trains 6 and 21 every cay last week. On Aug. 29 the giain record of Chicago was broken, when Western lines brought into that city 5,000 carloads, aggregating over 100,000 tons. The Burlington led the procession with t.IOO cars. This grain movement was greater than the eastbound movement out of Chicago of all the ten big trunk lines together for the whole of that week. The com rate based on 2ft cents per 10ft pounds, Chicago to New- York, went into effect yesterday, an advance of 5 cents. As it has iietn understood that the flfteen-cent rate was not strictly maintained and roads found it impossible to compete with the lake lines at this rate, it is hard to see how a twenty-cent rate can be maintained, says one of the local freight officials. It is announced that the policy of the lowa Central road, which has been very conservative heretofore, will he altered from now on. Under the presidency of Russell Sage the road did not show as much aggressiveness as the present management deems desirable, and it Is said that the roads will get after business from now on with as much energy as any of the larger Western roads. The Monon has completed the stone foundation for its new office and supply depot near the roundhouse of the company, in the northeastern part of the city, and yesterday commenced putting in the foundation for the new depot and telegraph office at the crossing of the Belt road. The company is putting in two additional sidetracks, half a mile in length, running north from the Belt crossing, from which point all freight trains will start. The new Monon switching engine which was so badly injured on the morning of Aug. 7 in a collision with a Panhandle train at Market street, and on which William Martin, the Monon engineer, was killed, is out of the shops and in service at Indianapolis. The reflector to the headlight of the locomotive, which fell out from the jar, ha-= ntver been found, it having been stolen. This is quite an item, as one of these reflectors cos's from SSO to $55. It is intimated that the indifference, the Pennsylvania Company is showing toward the action of the Monon on the mileage ticket is but a lull before a storm, and that the Panhandle trains from Louisville and from Cincinnati will shortly be run into Chicago over the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne A Chicago line, passing through Englewood and other Chicago suburbs that have been of advantage to the Monon. and that the Pennsylvania will shorten its time to such an extent as to attract attention. Col. William Shaw, district passenger agent of the Chicago. Burlington A Quincy, is spending two or three days in the city. Ho has just returned from a Western trip, and reports every division seemingly overtaxed with business, and of late the passenger business has improved as well as the freight. In sjieaking of the advance in the stock of the "Q,” he predicted that within twelve months it would be selling at $125 per share. This may seem a wild prediction, but the stock of this road once sold as high as $137 per share. The monthly statement of the Railroad Gazette of the accidents occurring on the railroads of this country shows that in July there were 146 accidents, in which twenty-five persons were killed and 116 injured on passenger trains. Not a passenger was killed during the month, but there were fifty injured. During the month sixteen employes were killed and fifty-six injured. In July, 1896. the Gazette says, seventy-five passengers were killed, and a long-continued clear record or Julys will be needed to obliterate the disgrace of July, 1896. The erecting and repair shops of the B. A O. at Mount Clare, in Baltimore, which are the oldest shops in the United States, have been completely modernized. The locomotive erecting shop has been rebuilt and is supplied with two fiftyton electric cranes, which lift the heaviest locomotives and move them to any point as though they weighed but a ton. The compressed air appliances are of the latest pattern, and the cost of making the improvements will be saved in two years, as the new machinery accelerates the work, at a less expense than in times gone by. Chief Engineer Brown, of the Pennsylvania, has been in consultation with the officers o? the company since his return from the West, and owing to the immense amount of mail he has to look over, it will be several days before he will take up the subject of new work. Some time ago plans were pre|iared for a number of small roads or branches in the bituminous coal regions, and It is thought that these will receive the first attention. Nothing will be done however, until the work which is now under way is practically compacted. I-a st week the inspection of the work was n-ade by some of the high officials of tbe com--1 pany. and they were very much gratified with the progress that has made WILL ATTRACT 5,000 PEOPLE. National Meeting; of Christian Church Missionary Societies*. The local committee appointed to arrange for the annual meeting of the National Missionary Societies of the Christian Church, which convenes in this city Oct. 14 for a seven days’ session, held a conference last night with Rev. Dr. A. McLean, of Cincinnati. Dr. McLean came here to consult with the committee in regard to the arrangements for the convention.

He is one of the most powerfully built men ever on a mat. Seats are now on sale for it at the Pembroke Arcade. '

BACK TO THEIR STUDIES PUBLIC SCHOOL CHILDREN WILL BE AT THEIR DESKS THIS MORMMi. * Half-Day Session* Only Will Be Hell for a Few Weeks—-In the Suburb*. Superintendent Goss and his assistants about the office of the city schools have been very busy for several days getting ready for the opening of the schools this morning. The janitors of the different buildings have been scrubbing and dusting and cleaning for a week, and ail the rooms are now presentable. For two or three weeks only half-day sessions of school will be held. This is deemed advisable on account of the continued warm weather. Until the cooler weather sets in the mornings will be devoted to school work, but the classes will be dismissed at neon. The new building on Park avenue, known as No. 45, is all ready to occupy today. It is a large, roomy structure, fitted out with the best of modern school furniture. In order to accommodate the increase in the number of pupils a storeroom has been rented and fitted up at Stoughton and Sterling streets. This room will relieve the overcrowded condition of school No. 33. An additional room has been procured for school No. 10, and since the close of the last summer a small addition has been built to No. 44, near the cerealine works. It is expected that the attendance this year will be much heavier than ever before. Last year the average attendance was about nineteen thousand, but this year it is thought the number will be increased to twenty-two thousand. Last year the pupils of Brightwood, West Indianapolis and Haughville were not included in the reports made by the superintendents of the daily attendance in the city schools. While these suburbs were a part of the city by act of Council, their schools were not actually under the supervision of the city superintendent. This year these schools will take the same course of study as the city schools and wiil be under the direction of Superintendent Goss. By the annexation of territory on the east side of the city school No. 1, Center township, located at the extreme east end of Clifford avenue, w'ill be a part of the city schools. About the only changes in the grades this year will be the location of the eighth-grade pupils. The 8 A pupils, who were last year removed from senooi No. 10 to No. 1, wiil attend that school again this year. The 8 B's and 8 A's of schools Nos. 2 and 3 will this year attend school No. 3. Buildings 4, (i, 7,8, 9, 11, 15, 2 i and 44 will accommodate pupils in the eighth grade. The corps of teacners selected by the school trustees of the annexed suburbs wiil be reemployed by the School board this year. In the High School to-day the grades will report as follows: Morning, 12 A, Room B; 12 B, Room A; 11 A, Room C; 11 B, Room D; 10 A, Room E; afternoon, 10 B, Rooms E and F; 9 A, Rooms A and B; 9 B, A to J, inclusive, Room D; K to S, inclusive, Room C; T to Z, inclusive, Room A. At the Industrial Training School the assignments are as follows: Grades 12AB and post-graduates to Room F, grade 11A to Room 8, grade 118 to Room G. grade 10A to Room C, grade 108 to Room D, grade sA to Room B. Grade 9B will assemble in the auditorium on Tuesday morning. CHARGES OF CRUELTY. Citizens of Went Indianapolis Complain of Sanitary Officers. Two citizens of West Indianapolis. Dr. Thomas Gaddes and Frank Hall, a druggist, visited the office of the City Board of Health yesterday morning with a complaint of cruelty they claimed had been practiced by a sanitary officer. About 6 o’clock Sunday evening Dr. Gaddes heard pistol shots and a dog howling piteously in the rear of his residence and went back to investigate. He found a man trying to kill the dog. The man had a revolver, which he snapped several times, but it failed to explode. Then two men brutally kicked the dog and threw stones at it. Dr. Gaddes said tne man with the revolver claimed he was a sanitary officer. When the doctor suggested that tre use chloroform in killing the dog he says the man swore at him and ordered him away. Finally the dog was killed by a man who came along with a revolver. Tne complaining citizens say they did not get much satisfaction in the Board of Health office and were told to see R. A. Orlopp, inspector for the Humane Society. They say a policeman in the corridor of the courthouse told them to see Police Superintendent Colbert. 1 hey did so and say that he told them to go back to the City Board of Health. Garbage Complaints. Complaints continue to come into the City Board of Health against the garbage collectors. From thirty to fifty complaints are received daily. People living on Meridian street north of Fall creek declare they have not seen a garbage wagon in that neighborhood. There is also complaint that some of the wagons are not properly closed after the garbage is taken up and that they spill their contents in the street. S. E. Rauh, of the Indianapolis Desiccating Company, says that sixty-tive teams are engaged each day in collecting garbage, and tnat complaints are growing fewer. Mr. Rauh says the new plant at feeders farm will be completed in about two weeks. Wants to Annul Franchises. The city of Madison yesterday filed an intervening petition in the receivership case of Down against the Madison Light and Railway Company, asking that the franchise contracts between the city and company be set aside in order that new franchises may be granted to other companies that will be abie to carry out their terms. Neither the street car nor light plant of tiie company has been completed. The receiver has asktd permission to issue $37,000 of receiver's certificates in order to complete the plants. The Persimmon Brigade. The Persimmon Brigade Association will hold its tenth annual reunion in the courthouse in this city on Tuesday, Sept. 14, State fair week. The first meeting will be held at 10 a. m. Reunions of the several regiments of the brigade will be held in the afternoon. The resident ladies of the association will serve a free dinner to the comrades from 5 to 7 in the evening at Mansur Hall. The annual camp-fire of the association will be held in the courthouse, beginning at. 8 p. m. W. H. Van Bergen'ti Death. William Henry Van Bergen, who died in this city Sunday, was born in Baltimore, Md.. Nov. 19. I>2B. His family moved to Indiana in 1840 and settled near He married Margaret E. Geyer and moved to Indianapolis in 1853. He was a contractor and carpenter, and had contracted for a number of public buildings and dwellings that now stand in Indianapolis. His wife anil two daughters, Mrs. George Arnold and Miss Nellie, survive him. The ••Dime’s Worth” Fails Again. Lilly Henry, keeper of a resort at (old) 297 East Court street, had a quarrel Vith her lover yesterday, and last night at about 8 o'clock purchased the customary 10 cents’ worth of morphine and swallowed it. Drs. Rhodes and Champion, of the Dispensary staff, worked with her for a few' hours and she is now fully recovered—and penitent. Purchased the Anihin Bank. The auditor of state was informed yesterday that the Ambia State Bank had been purchased by Balwin & Dague, bankers. of Fowler, and it will be reopened for business this week. The receivership proceedings instituted by the auditor will be withdrawn, as the purchasers have taken care of all the liabilities. Water C olors at the Monument. People who watched the waters in the fountains of the monument yesterday noticed a difference in the color. The water of the fountain on the east side was blue while that on the west was dark glassgreen. The differences in the reflection of the light change the shade of the water. To Sell the Premier Plant. At the request of attorneys representing creditors of the Premier steel works. Judge Allen will make an attempt to sell the plant. An order will be made to dispose of the entire plant Jan. 15 next. In the
