FAST RUNS MADE IN 1885 A SPEED OF A MILE A MIMTE SEVERAL TIMES EXCEEDED. Rlvnlry Between the Pennsylvania and Vanderbilt Line* Inrrcnsing —Miscellaneous Xotes. ♦ The fast runs made recently between Chicago and Omaha have awakened railway officials to the possibilities of modern railroading. Recent performances do not compare with the records made by the New York Central, the Lake Shore and the Pennsylvania lines some years ago. In ISS4 Cornelius Vanderbilt was convinced that a mile a minute could be reached with the locomotive of those days, and on one occasion a special train was started from Chicago and covered the distance between Cleveland.and Buffalo in 218 minutes, and on April 17, 1895 the run from Erie to Buffalo, ninety-five miles, was made in ninety-four minutes. The Exposition flyer on the Lake Shore made the run between Buffalo and Cleveland, making three five-minute stops, in 190 minutes, covering the 183 miles in 175 minutes, which makes the actual running time faster than a mile a minute. Creditable as were the runs over the Chicago & Northwestern and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy last week, the average speed was only' fifty-two miles an hour. This is accomplished by the New York Central dally by the Empire State express, and for many consecutive miles on the Pennsylvania a speed of seventy miles an hour is nujde with the fast mil trains, and even with Train 14 much of the distance it is now scheduled sixty-eight miles an hour. It is not an uncommon thing for the Big Four to haul its Knickerbocker express at a speed of seventy miles an hour much of the distance between Terre Haute and Indianapolis and Indianapolis and Cleveland, and this with a train of seven or eight cars. Six years ago the New York Central made two miles a minute -with a regular passenger train between Rochester and Buffalo. In 1895 a Lake Shore train made the run from Chicago to Buffalo, with five cars, all Conditions being favorable, covering the 510 miles in 8 hours, 1 minute and 7 seconds. The time the train was in motion an average fcpeed of 65.07 miles an hour was maintained. Old-time railroaders relate some fast runs made on the Bee-line and the Madison & Indianapolis road as far back as 1858, but the trains of those days were so much lighter than those now hauled that comparisons are not so favorable; but the engines Gazelle and Chief, on the Madison & Indianapolis, frequently made the run from Indianapolis to Columbus, forty-one miles, in forty minutes, making one stop, and the passenger engines Wisconsin and Delaware often made the run from Indianapolis to Union City, eighty-five miles, in ninety-five rnnutes, stopping at Anderson, Muncie and Winchester. LmiK'-Anticipated (oiiNotidation. The long-anticipated consolidation of the Cincinnati Northern and the Detroit, Toledo & Milwaukee has occurred, and Vice President J. H. Steman is on his way to Toledo to complete the work. It is understood that the Cincinnati Northern has made a longtime lease of the Detroit, Toledo & Milwaukee and, according to the plan. Superintendent Flanders, of the Toledo, will be put in active operation of both roads. All the officers of the Detroit, Toledo & Milwaukee will he merged into those of the Cincinnati Northern, except some of the smaller ones. The business will be conducted as of one road. An effort was made at Toledo yesterday to see Superintendent Reardon, of the Detroit. Toledo 4fc Milwaukee, but it is understood he has gone West to accept a position with another road. The headquarters of the combined roads will either be in Toledo or Cincinnati. It is generally believed General Passenger and Freight Agent Schindler’s jurisdiction will extend over both toads, thus giving him the territory' lie bad before the dismemberment of the C. J. Ac M. The details of the transaction have not been arranged, but it is expected they will be before Feb. 1. Nearly n Day. The Big Four lines proper earned in December, gross. $1,355,871.39, an increase over December, ]tf)7, of $30,851.64, most of which Increase was made in the last week of the month. This is an average of $13,738 per day. There was an increase in passenger earnings of $16.507.54; in freight earnings, $14,338.27; in mail. SSX3. I’ersonul. Local nml General Notes. Detective Grady, of the Big Four lines, is Bo ill with grip as to confine him at home. Writ. R. Me Keen, ex-president of the Vandaila, is in the city. He still has an eye to railroad matters. The receipts from storage of packages at the Union Station package room for 189$ were $1,268 in excess of those of P 97. John Riley, superintendent of the Peoria & Eastern, who has been Ui for some weeks, has gone to Old Point Comfort for a few weeks’ stay. R. C. Jones, representing the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and R. H. Fowler, the Illinois Central, are in the city on official business. The survey for the extemdon of the Chicago Great Western road to Omaha is completed. It will le 170 miles in length, i nil rmm the ahortsei route itetween Bt. Paul and Omaha. It Is said that the proposition to divide the Southern Railway into two systems, similar to the Pennsylvania lines, depends upon that company .-ecuHng control of the Queen & Crescent road. The Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton is putting in another installment of engines at the

Indiana, Decatur At Western shops. In 1898 twenty-three of the locomotives of the Cincinnati. Hamilton Ac Dayton were rebuilt at these shops. The Hotel Adams, at Muskogee, Indian Territory, has been purchased by ine Missouri, Kansas & Texas lead. With the a<quisition of this hotel this company lias control of all eating stations on its line between St. Louis and Galveston. Workmen at the shops of the Peoria & Eastern, at Urbana, 111., are building one hundred hopper bottom cars of 60,009 pounds capacity. The order is being filled at the rat -of eight ears per week, the first installment having been put in service yesterday. The official report of John Ferguson, general baggage agent of the Union Railway' Company, shows that in 1898 there were handled at the baggage rooms of the Union Station 605,658 pieces of baggage, against 538,929 in 1897, an increase in 1898 of 66,729 pieces. Andrew Young, assistant general freight agent of the Lake Erie Ac Western lines, has resigned to become traffic manager of the American Tin-plate Company, with headquarters at Chicago. His position will be filled by the promotion of Marvin Rice Maxwell, now local agent of the company at Indianapolis. A big deal, contemplating a consolidation of the leading car manufacturing interests, to include the Michigan Peninsular Company, the Barney Smith Company, the Ohio Falls Car Company, the freight department of the Pullman company and the Haskell & Barker Company, at Michigan City, is pending. It costs a brake-man on the Pennsylvania road $2) to carry a passenger coach key. When they are provided with a key they are eomoolled to sign a bond of that value, which is forfeited if the key is lost or stolen. The bond was originally $lO. Some of the passenger brakemen have keys they have carried twenty years. A. Waggener, district passenger agent of the Chicago & Northwestern, with headquarters at Indianapolis, will go into the general offices, and this territory will be looked after by Bert Cox, who resides in this city. Charles Traver, traveling passenger agent of the company, with headquarters at Pittsburg, will go to Cincinnati. It is stated that the loss in local passenger revenue to the Lake Shore between Elkhart and Goshen since the new electric line between those points was put in operation is nearly 50 per cent. It’s anew thing, however, and an improvement that the Lake Shore contemplates making in train service will largely' offset the decrease, it is thought. Henry Russell, counsel for the Michigan Central Railroad, stated yesterday that an agreement has been reached between the railroads concerned in the erection of a bridge across the Detroit river. The railroad. interested— the Michigan Central, the Wabash, the Grand Trunk and the Canadian Pacific—have agreed on plans of a bridge to cost $3,000,C00. It is exciting comment that President Calloway, of the New Y'crk Central, in placing a large order for steel rails, specified eighty pounds to the yard to be their weight. Asa portion of the line is laid with a one hundred pound to the yard rail, it is inferred that he has decided that the lighter rail is as serviceable as the one hundred pound rail, as have several expert railway chief engineers. It begins to look as if the rivalry between the Pennsylvania lines and the Vanderbilt roads wdll be transferred to the affiliated lines west of the Mississippi river. Officials of the Pennsylvania lines were very anxious that the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy should win in the race to Omaha, while the Vanderbilt line officials were equally anxious that the Chicago & Northwestern should beat its competitor. Anew car seal has been placed on the market which in at least one feature is novel. Instead of bearing the number of the station from which issued the seals are numbered consecutively from one up indefinitely. It is claimed for this seal that it will insure a correct seal record, as agents, yard clerks and conductors cannot take a seal number from way bills or assume that a car bears a certain station number because the car was sealed at such station.

Another suit to foreclose mortgages on the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern Railway was brought yesterday' in the United States Court at Cincinnati. This is by the Farmers’ Loan and Trust Company of New York. Suit is brought for $46,441,000, as follows; Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern first mortgage bonds, $11,000,000; first income mortgage, $5.5001000: second income mortgage bonds, $0,400,000; third, $7,700,000. On Ohio At Mississippi bonds. $112,000, $6,501,000, $3,213,000, $2,009,000, $4,006,000. In view’ of the present interest in the fast time made by lines competing for mail contracts, the fast run made by the Santa Fe’s limited, which arrived in Chicago yesterday. is interesting. The limited reached Lajunta, Col., tw r o hours late and covered the 202 V miles of prairie in three hours and forty-six minutes, reducing the delayed time forty-four minutes and running at an average speed of 53.6 miles per hour. From Syracuse to Garden City the limited maintained a speed of sixty-three miles an hour. Deducting delay's for taking water and cleaning fires, the actual running time was nearly a mile a minute. The initial trip of the Rock Island’s new passenger train from Chicago to Omaha was a most successful one. The train was eighteen minutes late getting away from Englew'ood, but the lost time was easily made up and the train arrived at the union depot in Omaha five minutes ahead of schedule time. The time, which i& the fastest of any train west of Chicago carrying passengers, the officials and trainmen assert, was made with the greatest ease, and if necessary can he improved upon. They are confident of ability to bring it in on time with favorable weather. The train made the run of 503 miles in eleven hours forty-tw'o minutes. The annual meeting of the St. Louis, Vandalia & Terre Haute Railroad Company, the property' of which is leased to the T. H. & I. Railroad Company, will be held at Greenville. 111., to-day, and that of the Terre Haute At Indianapolis Railroad Company will he held at Terre Haute on Wednesday. Vice Presidents James McCrea, J. T. Brook and Joseph Wood, of the Pennsylvania Company, went West last night to attend these meetings. The reports of the operations of the year by Receiver Malott. the result of which has been heretofore published in the Journal, will be read and directors and corporation officers elected for the current year. The meetings will not in any way affect the management of the properties. E. W. McKenna, when appointed superintendent of the Indianapolis & Vincennes road, had a youthful appearance, and on making one of his trips over the road he approached a fireman, who chanced to know he was superintendent, and asked to ride on the locomotive. The fireman promptly' fixed a good seat for him. When the engineer was running quite fast Superintendent McKenna said to him; “Look here, old fellow, are you not pounding over this track pretty fast, considering its bad condition?” The engineer answered: “Young man, if you think we are running at too lively a gait, get hack into the coach.” Not until Mr. McKenna had left the footboard did the engineer know that ho was the new’ superintendent of the road. Mr. McKenna still speaks of the incident with pleasure. NEW CUP DEFENDER. Mr. Ist*! In Hope* to Have a Faster Yaeht than the Old Victor. BRISTOL, R. 1., Jan. 9.—C. Oliver, Iselin was in town to-day’ inspecting the work which is being done to the Defender, the old cup racer, and in connection with the preparations now being made for the construction of the new boat which is to represent America in the next international races. Mr. Iselin stated to-day that the work on the old boat was nearly completed, and that she would he moved from the Herreshoffs’ works in time to allow the builders to pour the keel nf tho new Defender. Mr. Iselin was not prepared to make any statement regarding the material to be used on the new yacht. He said he was satisfied with the old boat, and the aluminium did not make trouble until alter -he had won the race. "I will profit by any mistakes that tray have been made in the past,” continued Mr. Iselin. “I will get out as satisfactory' a boat as possible and one as much faster than the old one as I can.” When asked if the new yacht would have as much lead as the Defender, he said she would not be able to do with much less in order to carry all the sail he wants her to. The mold is ready for the lead and sixty have been received already. ViTAL STATISTICS—JAN. 9. Births. Alice and Cyrus Hoadly, 11 South La Salle street, Kiri.

A persistent and general demand prevailed throughout the list on the New York Stock Exchange yesterday, and on an enormous volume of trading there were many final advances of 1 to 3 points, while standard stocks generally were up fractionally. Influenced in part by Saturday's favorable bank statement, there were more buying than selling orders accumulated by commission houses over Sunday. London, while moving largely with quotations, was a seller on balance, but it developed later that on the curb a very large demand sprang up for Americans after business hours. It was said that Americans were buoyant, with Atchisons the feature. According to the transfer books of St. Paul foreign holdings of the stock are limited to about 45,000 shares, or only one-fifth of the amount in foreign names a few years ago; therefore the floating supply of the stock abroad would appear to be very small. Atchison preferred and Sugar were the leaders in the strength displayed in the market. The heavy purchases of Atchison preferred, which resulted in an extreme gain of 4 points, was said to be largely for very powerful interests and their allies. The stock nude a high record of 56% ex. dividend. There were a number of vague rumors connected with Sugar, but nothing definite. The stock, however, made an extreme gain of 4% points. Glucose Sugar Refinery was sympathetically strong. An advance in Pennsylvania and some other stocks w r hich move conservatively increased the confidence of the bulls. C., C., C. & St. L. and Chesapeake & Ohio showed pronounced strength on the revival of the oftrumored deal between those properties, while the former was also aided by a favorable traffic statement. Good earnings likewise responsible, for there were considerable gains made by Laclede Gas, St. Louis & Southwestern preferred, Great Northern preferred, Mobile & Ohio, Des Moines & Fort Dodge, Rubber and New Y r ork Air Brake. In the case of New York Air Brake two large accounts were reported as likely to be secured by the company. Among the coalers New Jersey Central and Delaware & Hudson were the strongest. The purchases of Southern Railway preferred were said to be partly on the theory that the company would gain control of the Seaboard Air-line. The dealings in stocks, w’hich exceeded a million by over a hundred thousand, were the largest in the present movement and of recent years. Transactions in bonds, whiyh had show’ed a contraction in dealings of late, also reached large proportions, aggregating SB,480,000. Considerable buoyancy developed in the bond speculation, enormous blocks of the Atchison and St. Louis Southwestern issues being taken at material advances. Some of the low’-priced issues made striking gains, Peoria & Eastern incomes figuring for 5%. United States new’ fours, coupon, and the old fours, registered, gained %, and the old fours, coupon, and the fives, coupon, declined % in the bid price. The twos, registered, advanced (4.

since the coming in of the new year. Weather conditions were not very favorable, and there were no important changes in values.

The produce market is rather quiet, as usual, after the holidays, still prices ruled much the same as for two weeks past. In other lines there were no features calling for comment.

STRONG WHEAT MARKET HEAVY COVERING BY SHORTS AM) lIIG SEABOARD CLEAR AMES. ♦ Opened a Half Cent Higher and Touehed 71 l-4c Before the Close— Provisions Lost a Sharp Advance. CHICAGO, Jan. 9.—Decided covering by shorts to-day and heavy clearances at the seaboard strengthened wheat. May left off with an advance of "gifi-lc. Corn gained %c and oats %(ii' ic. Provisions, after a sharp advance early, closed at substantially unchanged prices. Wheat opened astonishingly strong, as compared with the weakness of its close at the regular session Saturday. A sharp upward turn on the euro Saturday afternoon, however, demonstrated how susceptible the price was to a little buying and how small was the confidence of short sellers in the wisdom of their position. May started a half cent higher at 70%@70%c and in the efforts of the shorts to reinstate themselves in the market, May was advanced still further, reaching 71@71%e. Up to this time the news had nothing in it to suggest such bullishness and it was not until the returns of the clearances of wheat and flour for the day from Atlantic ports were published that the bulls got anything from the day’s statistics to justify them in their attitude toward the market. Chicago receipts were 219 cars, of which eight graded contract. Minneapolis and Duluth received 731 carloads, as compared with 535 for the corresponding day a year ago. Primary Western market receipts aggregated 999,000 bushels, whereas 522/iOO bushels comprised the total for the same day last year. The visible supply that was thought likely to show' a decrease of 750,000 bushels, was found to have increased 465,000 bushels, against 47,000 increase the previous year. That was a curb to the bullish enthusiasm that was prevailing and May reacted to 70%c. To-day’s Atlantic port clearances of wheat and flour equaled 1,035,000 bushels. The quantity of grain on passage increased 1,010,000 bushels. Past w'eelc’s shipments were enormous, being placed between 7,500,000 and 8/100,000 bushels, of which over 80 per cent, came from this country. The demand for export at the seaboard was reported fairly good. Outside orders became numerous about this time and a good deal of buying here for the long account sent the price of May up again to 71 Vic. The majority of traders held call privileges around these figures and in an endeavor to secure those profits May sagged off to 70%c at the close. Light offerings and the strength in wheat helped corn early. For a time the bidding was so spirited by the old-time bulls that May, which opened higher at 37%@ 37tic, was forced up to 37t4(jri37%c. Receipts w'ere very large, however, 1,025 cars and the visible showed an increase of 1,019,000 bushels. Those influences contributed to keep the price down and when the buying had subsided somewhat May gradually declined to 37c and closed at 37^c. Oats followed corn, showing strength early, but weakening later. There was a good demand from outsiders during the fore part of the session, but this dropped off when the market declined. Receipts were moderate, 239 cars. May opened Vfec up at 27%©27%c, rose to 27%@27%c and closed at 27^c. The favorable character of the new proposed German meat inspection bill strengthened provisions early. Commission houses appeared to be well supplied with goods, but packers sold freely. After the commission houses had procured all they wanted there were still long lines for sales and the advance was all lost. May pork opened s<g)loe higher at $lO6/10.05, advanced to 110.1S 1 then declined to $9.95©9.97%, the closing price. May lard began at 5c up at $5.70, sold at $5.72%(g5.75, then sold off to $5.67%. May ribs started 2%c better at $5.02%, rose to 5.07%, then weakened to $4.97% at the close. Estimated receipts for to-morrow—Wheat, 125 cars; corn, 800 cars; oats, 250 cars; hogs, 30,000 head.
