CHANGES ON PANHANDLE 4— 51R. bonebrake transferred to THE INDIANAPOLIS DIVISION. Humor that the Big Four linn Secured Control of the Monon Lines la Authoritatively Denied. P. A. Ponebrake. superintendent of the luisville division of the Pensylvanta lines, has been transferred to the Indianapolis division, his headquarters to he at Columbus, O. Through this change a division superintendent wili be located at all important terminals of the Pennsylvania lines. Heretofore no division superintendent has been located at Columbus, but John F. Miller, general superintendent, made his headquarters there. These statement.* are official It is stated that Buahrod Taylor, engineer of maintenance, has been appointed superintendent of tlic Louisville division; that M. W. Mansfield will be continued as superintendent of the Indianapolis & Vincennes, and will be appointed superintendent of all terminals at Indianapolis west of the Belt road. Mr. Bonebrake will be superintendent of terminals at Columbus. Mr. Mansfield said lasi evening that the statement that Mr. Bonebrake would be the superintendent of the Indianapolis division was correct, but there had been no official advices confirming the rumors mentioned above. That Bushrod Taylor was to be made a division superintendent has been known for some days, and also that Mr. Mansfield would have addtional duties placed upon him through promotion. Mr. Bonebrake is a man of large railroad ability, and there is general regret that his headquarters is not to be at Indianapolis. Rnmoreii Sale of the Mouon. The statement was published in Ney York yesterday, as upon the authority of interests identified with the properties, that the Big Four is to secure, by purchase, the Chicago. Indianapolis & Louisville railroad. President Ingalls and President Brice and their several associates in the managements of the properties have come to a definite agreement. The Big Four is to buy the smaller property and is to pay for it outright. This is the first step in the Big Four plans looking to a consolidation of properties in the central West, especially those identified with the bituminous coal trade. The acquisition of the Monon would give the Big Four entrance into Chicago, whereas heretofore it has used the Illinois Central tracks and terminals. Furthermore, it gives the Big Four considerable Indianapolis and Louisville business, shutting off much competition from those sections. A similar statement was telegraphed from New York three weeks ago, and at the time met with denial. Should the Big Four secure the Monon, it would, through the Monon owning one-fifth of the Chicago & Western Indiana, gain entrance over Its own lines into Chicago, but the terms on which it oi>erates over the Illinois Centra! between Kankakee and Chicago are said to be very reasonable. At Indianapolis there was no official who could throw any light on the subject, and the same was true at Cincinnati Mr. Ingalls, who would know all about It, is with his family at Hot Springs. West Virginia. Should the report prove true, the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton would lose its through line In connection with the Monon for Chicago, but could readily establish another line in connection with the Indiana, Decatur & Western, which is controlled by the same parties who own the C., H. & D. The Woodford syndicate is too strong to be shut out of Chicago, and if necessary the C., H. & D. could form a line with the Lake Erie & Western, or the Wabash, which would be no longer than some of the lines now operated between Indianapolis and Chicago. Should the rumor prove true, the situation would become one of a good deal of interest. With the Pennsylvania owning four of the roads running in here, and the Big Four seven, Indianapolis shippers would be at the mercy of thpse two powerful torport tiens. The Lake ISrie & Western, however, working with the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton, would afford some competition. A dispatch from New York, received last night, says, statements to the effect that the Cleveland. Cincinnati, Chicago & St. I. Railroad Company had agreed to purchase the Chicago. Indianapolis & Louisville were authoritatively denied. The story, it is said, is without foundation.

Shipper* Mni Pax the Tax. For a number of days the officials of the various express companies, with headquarters in New York, have been discussing the effect of the war revenue tax upon their business. It is stated that the companies have decided that the payment of the tax by them would take so targe a proportion of their net revenue that it would be impossible for them to assume the burden Two propositions were considered: Either to increase their rates to an amount which would make good to them the expense of the tax, or to add the tax directly to their existing rates. Under their contract with the railroad companies, the express people are obliged to pav a certain percentage, varying from 40 to 50 per cent, of their gross receipts. as compensation for express facilities on the various roads. The adoption of the first of these measures would therefore have necessitated an increase in the rates of the express companies to a sum nearly double of the amount of tax. It was therefore decided that the most feasible proposition w T as the adoption of the rule that only the exact amount of the tax shall be collected. The shipper will be required to pay this tax, plus -the express company’s rates. Moored it Point on the lltgr Four. A dispatch tfom Anderson says: “The Fig Four's bottling up process which has kept the C, & S. E. in this city and not given it an outlet to make connection with the Muncie extension, which has been graded, has been broken at last by the old Midland effecting a combination with the Fanhandle whereby it will go out of this city over the Panhandle crossings. It will then be able to get to the extension by a circuitous route. The Midland people state that the road will be pushed through now. They had almost abandoned the work lor year. The Big Four’s purpose in holding them here was to keep them out of Muncie and other Big Four towns. Personal. Lorn I and General Note*. The earnings of th“ Indiana, Decatur & Western for June will show an Increase of over $2,000. E. C. Arnphleta has been appointed agent of the Union Star line at Mackinaw City, vice U H. Acard, resigned. It is stated that some changes are pending in the location of'district passenger agents on the Pennsylvania lines. The Big Four yesterday carried the largest picnic of the season to Zionsville, the train consisting of twenty-three cars. The Pennsylvania yesterday bought the Cincinnati & Muskingum Valley road, and hereafter it will be a part of that system. The Big Four seems to be carrying the bulk of recruits for the regiments at different points from all parts of the country. The Western New York & Pennsylvania has given notice that It will not participate In the reduction ir. grain rate* east bound frcm Chicago. Samuel Whiteman, who for years has been master carpenter of the Wabas- lines (middle division) is thought to be fatallv ili at his home in Lafayette. Neither of the Cincinnati rands will, on Sunday, run a dollar excursion to Cincinnati. The next excursion will be over the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Euytor on Sundav. July 10. Some ugly lawsuits are hinted at by owners of the securities of the iiiivs Jkpy^

by the Baltimore & Ohio over the treatment they are receiving from the reorganization committee. The work of cutting down the heavy grade on the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago, between Rochester and New Brighton, which has been in progress several months, is about completed. H. V. P. Taylor, assistant general passenger and ticket agent of the Wabash lilies, is spending a couple of days with District Passenger Agent George Maxtield, visiting the Indianapolis territory. C. F. Daly, general passenger agent of thfe Lake Erie & Western lines, stales tnai their Niagara excursion, early In August, bids fair to be even larger than that of last year, when they carried one hundred and two carloads of excursionists. The passenger department of the Baltimore & Ohio has issued the July number of the “Book of the Royal Blue.” It is devoted to matters connected with the G. A. R., Fourth of July and the seventieth anniversary of the organization of the B. & O. The Pittsburg. Fort Wayne & Chicago Is putting in numerous new side tracks at Conway, and the rumor has been revived that the company will remove its shops at Manchester to Conway. It is definitely settled that a large roundhouse -will be built there. The Louisville & Nashville, in its fiscal year, which ended with June 30. earned, in round numbers. $21,900,000. Including the third week of June the earnings had reached $21,835,423. an increase over the corresponding fifty-one weeks of its previous fiscal year of $1,479,711. Indianapolis Is showing the largest increase proportionately of any point an the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton excepting the coal mads which of late have been doing better than last year. Especially is eastbound passenger and freight business good from this section. The commissioner of Internal revenue has decided that railroad companies making charge for excess baggage of passengers shall he required to affix a one-cent stamp to bills of lading covering such charges, in the same manner is express companies are required to stamp their bills of lading. The resignations of N. K. Elliott and other officials of the Detroit, Toledo & Milwaukee line makes it evident that the Brice people now control the property, and the road will come under the management of the Cincinnati Northern and its associate lines, the former Cincinnati, Jacksc* & Mackinaw road. Peter J. Nichols, general superintendent of the Union Pacific Railway, has resigned. He will leave the Union Pacific July 1. His position as general superintendent will not be filled. W. H. Baxter, now general agent of the freight and passenger departments of the Union Pacific at Portland. Ore., will go to Omaha as superintendent of the Union Pacific. Train 20, over the Vandalia. yesterday left Terre Haute twenty minutes late and arrived at Indianapolis but three minutes late, the train consisting of eleven cars. Conductor Trindall says, all things considered, he thinks it the fastest run ever made between the two points with one of the heavy express trains, the seventy-three miles being run in ninety minutes. A New York paper qubtes O. W. Ruggiee, general passenger daent of the lUichigan Central, as saying that after he returns to his headquarters at Chicago the roads which have been juggling with the Klondike tickets will hear something unpleasant, as there is ample evidence that they have trifled with the articles of agreement between the Central Traffic Association lines. The Chesapeake & Ohio has arranged for some fast service in carrying the delegates and their friends to the annual convention of the National Educational Association, to be held in Washington. At 6;15 p. m.. July 5 and 6. special trains will leave Cincinnati. The Big Four train leaving Indianapolis at 2:45 p. m., will connect with these trains, which will consist of vestibule cars, dining cars, etc. Engine 112, on the Monon, yesterday morning hauled the fast express, consisting of five cars, from Monon to Frankfort, forty-seven miles, in firty-eight minutes ana made four stops. Most of the distance is up grade. Between Sheridan and Westfield the fastest speed was attained, two miles being covered at a speed of a mile in fortysix seconds, and another in forty-eight seconds. J. M. Covington was the engineer. REDUCE THEIR FIGURES

FALL CREEK PROPERTY OWNERS READY' 'IO .MAKE CONCESSIONS. This Again Leave* in Donbt the Tract to Be Bought—Northeast Parka —.Mr. Spades’* Gift. v a It is not now entirely a certainty that the White River Park land will be bought or the Fall creek system proposition not revised. The Board of Public Work and Mayor Taggart some time ago said the land for the Fall-creek system could not be purchased, for the owners us the property asked too much money for it. All attention was turned to the White-river-system as the principal park. The Fall-creek system was the scheme of the old Park Board and much labor was expended to perfect the plans for it. Since it was publicly announced the Fall creek park idea was a thing of the past, the property owners have come down considerably from their “high perch” and now express themselves ready to again negotiate with the city for the sale of their land. It will be impossible to buy both the White river and the Fallcreek systems. If the Fall-creek property owners make such terms that the Board of Works and the mayor decide to accept the land, the White-river park system must be given up. There is no one of the city officials, apparently, whe does not prefer the Fallcreek system to the White-river system. Mayor Taggart said last night there is a possibility the Fall-creek land may yet be purchased and the White-river park plans forsaken. He said, however, the chances are the owners of the creek land will not come down to the terms the city administration will demand, and finally the Whitferiver system will be the one created. Because of this uncertainty it will he some time before the White-river land is bought, if it is bought at all. The board will prepare ordinances for the purchase of the Pogue's-run land and the smaller paiks proposed and send them to the Council Monday night. 'At the meeting of the board this morning the deed of twelve acres along Pogue’s run between Newman street and Jefferson and Orchard avenue, owned by M. H. Spades, will be transferred to the city. This land is a gift from Mr. Spades to the city. It is to be used for park purposes. It is stated the mnrket value of the land is $5,000. The land is well wooded and rolling. Park Engineer Power says it will make a beautiful park and children’s play ground. Nothing from Hord. A1 Zearing. Mayor Taggart’s clerk, yesterday held out an important-looking document and said, “Say, I expect I've got something here you fellows ’ll want to print. It's the resolutions adopted by the Council authorizing the mayor and the Board of Public Works to secure a direct proposition for the purchase of the water works. The mayor has signed it.” As the mayor signed the resolutions six days ago. a letter to William B. Hord, of New Y’ork. asking him to get a proposition from the owners of the water works has been sent and the reply is daily expected, it was forced upon those whom Mr. Zearing addressed to tell him sadly his news was not quite fresh. Mayor Taggart said last night he had heard nothing from Mr. Hord since the letter was sent to him. The C., H. A D. Ordinance Signed. Mayor Taggart has signed the ordinances passed by the Council allowing the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton Railroad to build three extra tracks across New Jersey street and regulating the Sale of ice. The Mnreh of the Dead Brigade. No sound disturbs thp drowsy dawn, Ab forms thA dead brigade; Its silent rank*. In serried lines. Glide onward toward the springing pines. All phantoms in parade. Their steps bend not the drooping corn. These warriors all are ghosts. In rank and tile, with solemn tread. Their captains marching at the head, Move on these silent hosts. From out the tented camp of death, Their flag of peace displayed. With footfall soft as dew at morn. These cohorts sweep the bemling corn,. Where battle once was laid. The mark of God'a eternal peace Their countenances bear; And freed from all unholy hate, They shine with that exalted state Which heaven’s angels share. —Thomas 8. Denison, in July Century.

fl DULL STOCK MARKET MEMBERS READILY” CONSENT TO MAKING SATURDAY A HOLIDAY. Sensational Advance in Pnllmnn to JS4J7 on Prospective Division of Snrplus— Local Trade Quiet. ♦ At New York yesterday money on call was easy, at VAiQVfa per cent.; last loan, 1%.

A great part of the business consisted in closing up and evening up outstanding'contracts preparatory to the three days' cessation of trading. Dullness in the market in face of the actual existence of war is in striking contrast to the extreme nervousness which dictated the abolition of the usual Stock Exchange holiday on good Friday last, when there was daily expectation of the present;.tion of the report on the Maine disastei to Congress and an outbreak ol’ hostilities against Spain. Stock exchange members then insisted on holding a session to afford opportunity to sell stocks in the face of what has now actually come to pass and now they find prices at an extremely high level firmly sustained. Dull as the market was, the demand for stocks clearly exceeded the supply and there w'as a quiet absorption of securities through a widely extended business. Business continued largely professional, but there was commission house business done, the outside buying being attributed to Western sources and being especially manifest in the grangers in sympathy with the improved tone of the. wheat market. Sugar continued its advance, but lost it before the day closed. People’s Gas was up at one time points and Brooklyn Transit gained about a point. A movement to realise cn the day’s advance late in the afternoon caused a sharp reaction which was most marked in stocks which had shown the largest gains and in which Tobacco also shared. Pullman showed a striking advance and touched 207%. The buying *s said to be due to a pending distribution of the company’s large surplus. Doubts over interpretation of some points of the new revenue law which goes into force to-day bad an Influence in curtailing speculation. A decline in sterling exchange in response tr the lowering of the Bank of England discount rate was a feature of the day. In bonds there was a reaction in Texas & Pacific seconds on realizing. Otherwise prices were firmly held. Total sales, $2,250.000. United States old fours, coupon, advanced % and the new fours in the bid price. T The following table, prepared by L W.

First Indiana .Soldier to Fall. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In your issue of Tuesday, June 28. I read with great interest a telegram from Huntingburg, Ind., my former home. To my surprise I found that the first Indiana soldier to fall in the Spanish-American war Is a relative, being cousin to my wife. The last time we visited his father, Dr. H. W. Stork, was about one year ago. He spent the time in talking about his son, Jesse K., and reading to us his last letter, in which the son spoke in a very touching manner about the hardships of his soldier life in Arizona. When Troop A, First United States Cavalry, was ordered to leave Arizona and proceed to the front at once he wrote a letter to his father and brother giving directions what to do with his goods in case he did not return, and closed by saying: “I hope the Spanish will not back out now, as I want to go.” It occurs to me that such heroism and bravery is worthy of appreciation. Would It not, therefore, be just and proper that a tombstone be erected over his grave with the inscription, "Sacred to the Memory of Jesse K. Stork, First Soldier from Indiana to Fall in the SpanishAmerican War. Donated by His Friends from His Native State.” Those who wish to donate any amount, large or small, may send it to the Journal office. All amounts given will be reported in this paper. REV. H. B.

ENORMOUS WHEAT CROP CONTINUED BRIGHT PROSPECTS CAUSE SLUMP AT CHICAGO. ♦ Early In the Day Shorts Suffered n Punic on Exavgernted Crop Damage Stories—Pork Weak. ♦ CHICAGO, June 30.—Prospects of an enormous crop weakened wheat to-day after a sharp rally early in the session. July closed Vic lower and September lost %c. Corn declined ?*c, and oats are I AW%c off. In provisions pork left off 2%c lower, lard and ribs 5c lower. Perfect weather* throughout the winter wheat belt, so favorable for the continuance of harvesting and threshing operations, gave wheat an appearance of convalescence from the bull that raged in the pit in the latter half of the session yesterday. Those who thus diagnosed the opening conditions were unskilled in the symptoms of that variable malady. In fifteen minutes the fever had again reached the stage it had attained the day before and in another hour nothing could be heard except shouts for wheat and cries of ruined crops. September, the closing price of which yesterday was 68%c. started at from 6S*4c down to 68%c, but it very quickly began an upward movement that reached great dimensions both in the volume of the transactions and the extent of the advance. Shorts, who had been congratulating themselves over the reaction in prices at the start, became uneasy when the price of September reached 69c and commenced to be thoroughly alarmed when it got above 69Vic, and panic stricken when it was climbing from (©Vac to 69%c. July in the same time had advanced from 72%c, the opening price, to 74%c. The crop reports emanating from people in the trade in various Western cities was of an exaggerated type regarding the amount of damage done by rust and bugs, some of them suggestive of an actual crop failure. The advance was all lost on reports from sources conversant with the broad general features of the crop over the entire country which indicated a crop of unusual magnitude, after allowance was made for heavy damage in many localities. The Cincinnati Price Current suggested a yield fully as large as in 1891, when it was 661,710,090 bushels, and the unused surplus of that stock weighed on the markets here and abroad for two years. The restoration of the wheat duty by France was apparently ignored here. Chicago received live cars, against eleven last year; Minneapolis and Duluth only thirteen, compared with 330 the similar day a. year ago. July opened Vic lower, at 72%c, advanced to 74%c. declined to 72%c, then firmed up to 73c bid at the close. September began c down, at 68%@68%c, sold up steadily to t;9 7 %c. weakened to t>B%e, then rose to 68V4c bid, the closing price. Brilliant weather and the absence of shipping demand made traders bearish as a rule in corn, although they were temporarily affected bullishly while wheat was making its early advance. July opened %@%c lower, at 31%(?31%c, rose to 32%@32%e, then declined to 3P4c at the close. Continued covering by shorts, rainy weather predictions, unfavorable crop reports and the rally in corn advanced oats. The early gain was lost in sympathy with the drop in the other grains. July commenced %c lower, at 21%c, rose to 22%c, fell off to 21VsC, then firmed up to 21Vi@21%c bid. The feeling in provisions was bearish on large receipts of hogs and a decline in prices at the yards. A moderate business was done in changing July product over into September at prevailing differences. July pork opened 2%c lower, at $9.45, advanced to $9.55, then declined to $9.45, the closing figure. The range in lard and ribs was small.
