TARKIXGTOX Slonnerr. THE IMPROVED SERVICE CHANGES IX SPEED AXD WEIGHT OF TRAINS IX TWENTY YEARS. Heavy Shipments of Grain East for Export Official Changes Which Became Effective Yesterday. A local railroad official of over thirty years experience. In speaking of the faster . time made by passenger trains, said that with this Increase in speed but few people consider the Increase In weight of trains. When he first became connected with the Eee-l!ne forty-eight hours Boston to Indianapolis was considered good time; the time from Cleveland to Indianapolis was twelve hours, and the train consisted of three cars, with occasionally a fourth car, but no heavy sleeper. Now the best trains make , th run from Boston to Indianapolis In twenty-six hours and from Cleveland to Indianapolis In a little over seven hours, hauling usually eleven cars, never less than . nine, and three of these usually sleeping cars, which weigh 60 per cent, more than a day coach, and the high speed is made as readily with these heavy trains as was the time years ago when the trains were so much lighter. Much the same remark will apply to the Pennsylvania line. Up to 1872 thirty-eight hours was good time from New Tork to Indianapolis. In 1SS0 it was cut to thirty-four hours. 1SS2 to thirty-two hours, and from that year until the present with each year the time between New York and Indianapolis, in both directions, has been improved, until the best trains now cover the distance in twenty-two hours. Train 14, over the Panhandle, which leaves Indianapolis at 8:20 m., reaches New York at 6:20 a. m.. Eastern time, the next day, and between Indianapolis and New York but ten stops are made, seven being to change engines. Over the Vanderbllt line a traveler can take a sleeper at 10:20 a. ro. In Boston and at 11:3) the next day arrive over the Big Four in Indianapolis. The train east of .-Gallon. makes but eight stops and those at division points, three being on the Boston & Albany. Up to as late as 1W most trains over the Big Four between Cincinnati and Chicago were twelve hours in making the run, now the three different lines have trains that cover it In less than eight hours. While this faster speed for passenger trains has been Introduced, through fast freight trains have made proportionate progress. Up to as late as 1ST) twelve miles an hour was the fastest schedule made by freight trains on the best roads. Now twenty-five miles an hour Is a very common schedule for a through freight; in fact, on the Vandalia. between Indianapolis and St. Louis, a train, stops deducted, runs fully thirtyfive miles per hour, and so, perfect are the tracks of the Indiana roads that on almost any road in the State a speed of sixty miles an hour, when a train chances to be late, , Is a common occurrence. Two or three times ' a week mall trains of the Panhandle and Vandalia reach a speed of seventy miles an hour for a number of consecutive miles. The Heavy Grain Movement. No little significance is attached to the fact that In the face of continued falling off of grain deliveries at primary points, east-bound shipments of flour, grain and provisions from Chicago last week were among the heaviest ever made by Eastern lines, the tonnage being 101,777, or 13.170 tons greater than the previous week, and 55.599 . tons la excess of the same week a year ago. This Increase seems to have been largely In corn and oats, as there was a remarkable falling off last week In receipts of wheat at Northwestern points, the total number of cars being 773. a decrease of 574, as compared with the corresponding week of ISM. but a gain of 443 cars over the week ending Aug. 1J. The grain market a year ago was enormously heavy, nearly doubling that cf 1S07. A big rush of shipments is now looked for. so froot are the prospects that the railroad officiate are coming to their senses and will in the near future advance rates on grain and provisions. On flour they are now high enough. A Big Four freight official accounts for the heavy tonnage taken out of Chicago last week by the B!g Four from the fact that It had the cars, being well supplied with Chesapeake & Ohio and Central States Dispatch cars. Ileavr Assessment. The St. Clair County (Illinois) Board of Review, In session In Belleville yesterday, raised the assessment of the eastern end of the Eads bridge structure from $3,000,000, Assessor Enrighfs figures, to $1,000,000. The .bridge company officials, accompanied by Judge Alexander Hope, their attorney, ap5 eared before the board in the afternoon. he attorney showed that the western half of the bridge, on the Missouri side, and the most important, according to the standpoint of the bridge company, was assessed only ' at $l.ao."i0. The officials of the bridge company were told that the case would be taken under advisement. However, before the books were closed for the evening $1,000,000 was added to their assessment. Military Rates. After a session lasting for two days the transmlssourl committee of the Western Fassenger Association concluded Its sessions at Omaha yesterday. The principal matter under discussion was the question of military fates. All present agreed that the best p'.an that could b adopted would be on the basis of an equitable distribution of the business and a uniform rate. Such a f 'reposition was agreed on, but before It can ecome operative it must receive the sanction of the Missouri Pacific, the KIo Grande Western, the Colorado Midland and other roads which failed to have representatives present at the meeting. Personal, Local and General .Notes. The Big Four will to-day reopen its freight station at Ternpleton. A. D. Davis has been appointed agent. Superintendent Russell, of the Lackawan na, has introduced the double order system of Ksulng train orders. The Vandalia will expend some $i0.C0O In Improvements at South Bend, including a narxiiome new station building. The directors of the Fort Wayne & Jackson have declared a semi-annual dividend of 1 per cent, on its preferred stock. J, R. Caanagh. car service superintendent of the Big Tour, left last night for RoanoKe; a.. to dc a nsent -several days. Captain Henncwy. detective of the Van dal'a line, has gone to Missouri to visit a Drotner ana he win be absent a week. Guy Bender, voucher clerk in the office cf Division Superintendent Houghton, re-f-nya yesterday from Health Springs. Va. Zt U elated that the excursion traffic to

Niagara Falls the past summer ha been fully 25 per cent, greater than In any former year. J. A. Barnard, general manager of the Peoria & Eastern, who has been absent on a vacation for two weeks, is expected home to-morrow. Chief Engineer Hall, of the Monon. was here yesterday completing arrangements for Increasing the sldetrackage of the company at this point. Colonel Atmore. general passenger agent of the Louisville & Nashville, has returned from the Northwest, where he went on a health-seeking trip. The Lake Erie & Western will make extensive improvements at Bluffton. practically building a new station and considerably Increasing the side-track room. D. Jonea has been appointed district passenger agent of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul at Cedar Rapids, vice W. L. Kennelly, transferred to other duties. In August there were transferred over the Belt road 82.211 cars. Belt road engines handk-d at the stockyards 4.73 loaded cars and for private switches on its line 3,932 loaded cara It is stated that the report that the New York Central has purchased the New York. Ontario & Western Is true. Some time ago it was rumored that the Grand Trunk had secured control of the property. The Railway Journal, of St. Louis, publishes photogravures of the passenger representatives of the Vandalia, thirteen in number. Brief sketches of their lives and comment on their ability accompany the picture. On Sept. 4 the Buffalo. Rochester & Pittsburg will open its road between Allegheny and Reynoldsvllle for traffic. When fairly In operation, the company expects to adopt & schedule of eight hours between Buffalo and Pittsburg. The Big Four, In connection with the Nickle-plate and Lehigh Valley, is giving to the latter a goodly number of passengers, this being the only differential line the Big Four can work for Philadelphia and New York business. Many of the trains of the Panhandle, east as well as w2t-bound, are row hauled bv two engines so heavy Is travel. Train 'J) ycst?rday hauled fifteen cars, and Conductor Harper's report showed there were over 4C0 passengers in the coaches and sleepers. T. G. Smiley, who represents the Lehigh Valley line at this point, received notice yesterday that the Cosmopolitan steamship line, which has heretofore been characterized as a tramp or Irregular line, will now have weekly sailings from Philadelphia for European ports. W. W. Richardson, district passenger agent of the Pennsylvania and Vandalia lines. Is elated over the business these road9 did In his territory last month. In August. ISns. the volume of business exceeded that of !S93. world's fair year, while in August, this year, both lines handsomely exceeded in receipts from sales of tickets those of 1858. Edward Vail, of Seranton. chairman of the engineers' committee which has been meeting with General Superintendent Rupsell, of the Lackawanna, has been deposed from both the chairmanship and membership of the committee. It is said the men have become suspicious that he was not so aggressive for the engineers as he should have been.

D. It. T-nvHl vrhn VMtrHav Hxa rrn an. perintendent of the Delaware and Kensington division of the Pennsylvania road, when ten veara of aee ntrM thp .prvir of th Pennsylvania as an all-round boy in one of the company's stations. This was in 1S33. and through promotions he has held responsible positions on five different divisions of the Pennsylvania lines. A special train on the Peoria. Decatur & Evansville that recently carried a Peoria tartv to the dedication of th Pitprn Nor mal School at Charleston made the run from reoria to Mattaon. a distance of 120 miles, in two and one-half hours. There were two hundred passengers on the train, and It is said to be the fastest run evpr rradp In that section by a train of Its weight. The Michigan Central, the Big Four, the Grand Trunk and the Wsbash will discontinue the sale of round-trip summer tourist tickets from Chicago to Boston and other New England points. This action is taken. It is said, to bring about the long desired arbitration of the difficulties that have existed among t Eastern lines over differential excesc .ares and commissions. W. W. Wentz. who for years was connected with Indianapolis lines. Is now general superintendent of the New York division of the Central road of New Jersey. In the few months he has held the position he has built up an excellent reputation for efficiency, and has. it is stated, brought about harmony among officials and employes such as the road in recent years has not enjoyed. T. B. Swann. assistant general passenger agent of the Denver & Rio Grande, has been detailed to see that the. American Association of Traveling Passenger Agents, which convenes at Denver Sept. 1$ and 20. has a pleasant time. An elaborate programme has been drafted and the event promises to mark an epoch in the social history of Colorado. Snowballing on the summit of Pike's peak Is one of the features in store for them. Aldace F. Walker, chairman of the board of directors of the Santa Fe. stated in Chicago that the extension would be completed to San' Francisco by Jan. 1. He Paid the trains would reach the Pacific coast from Albuquerque over the Santa Fe and Pacific division, formerly the Atlantic and Pacific, to Mojave. and from that point to Stockton by the San Francisco and San Juaquin Valles'. division, through Tehachapl pass. District Passenger Agent Algeo. of the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton and Monon lines, yesterday made comparison of the Increase in receipts from sales of tickets of the two roads at the uptown office, and found that the Increase for the two lines nar,7 as compared with August. m. the largest gain being shown by the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton. At the Union station the Increase was quite as favorable, especially with the Monon. W. G. Brlmson. who yesterday assumed the duties of general manager of the Quincy. Omaha & Kansas City and the Omaha & St. Louis road, vice H. C. Reardon. resigned, was for some years trainmaster on the Chicago & Eastern Illinois, and there Is a story current among railroad men that Mr. Brlmson would now be general manager of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois but for some friction with H. H. Potter, chairman of the executive committee of the road. C. W. Cook has been appointed traffic manager of the Peoria & Pekln Terminal Company, and has entered upon his duties Aside from Mark M. Hubbell. who was appointed superintendent of the road some time ago. Mr. Cook Is the only official thus far selected. Mr. Cook served five years as general freight agent of the Three I's, and five years as assistant general freight pgent of the Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe. He came to Peoria to succeed the late cYJfVGar!,.t,n as asent of the Central States Dispatch line. VITAL STATISTICS-SEPT. 1.

BOOM IN VANDERBILTS

EFFORT TO IXFLtEXCE STOCK PRICES WAS XOT SUCCESSFUL. Bears Waited Until It Was Over and Then Got Out Their HammersLocal Trade Continues Firm. At Ne v York yesterday money on call was steady at 3S3V5 per cent.; last loan, 3 per cest. ' Prime mercantile paper,, 4US5 per cent. Sterling exchange was steady, with actual business in bankers' bills at $1.S6V for demand and $4.87U for sixty days; posted rates, $4.86U and $4.S7Vi; commercial bills, $l.S2li. Silver certificates. WieOc; bar silver, 59c; Mexican dollars, 47c. At London bar silver closed quiet at 27 3-16d an ounce. The feature of yesterday's New York market was the effort of the bulls about midday to lift the market out of its listless and heavy condition by a sharp advance In the Vanderbllts. The effort miscarried and Invited sucha flood of realizing that prices sold off to the lowest point, which was in many cases as much as $1 a share below Thursday night's level. The bears had a hand In the decline, but the demand from shorts to cover was light and rallies in the general list were of small proportions. The movement of railroads generally through the morning were exceedingly small either way, except in a few individual cases. Chicago & Eastern Illinois was pushed up over 2 points above par, but relapsed nearly 3 points. The movement of the specialties In the first hour was a good deal mixed. Consolidated Gas and Tennessee Coal shooting up 2 points, but the Tobacco stocks, Brooklyn Transit and Sugar were heavy In tone. Only a little before noon Omaha and Northwestern were pushed up on a revival of the old story of the absorption of the former by the latter. About the same time the appeararx:e of the New York Central annual report showed In detail rather striking economies effected by the consolidation of that great system. The result was a rise of 8 points In Omaha, 3s in Northwestern and nearly 2 points in New York Central. A number of other Vanderbllts sympathized to the extent of a point and the Union Pacific stocks were bid up a point, giving color to the rumor that the much-talked-of transcontinental consolidation was about to be perfected. The very heavy blocks of Union Pacific stocks coming out on the rise and the detection by the bears of selling for long account, brought a determined raid and a realizing movement all along the line. The gains which had been extended In some cases to near a point were quickly wiped out and the general level of the market fell below last night, Brooklyn Transit dropping 2 points; Central Pacific lost Vi. The market was very listless during the last hour and closed generally easy at an average decline. London sent higher prices and bought on this side to a moderate extent, but this support was without avail to sustain the market. The fear ot an unfavorable bank state ment was a heavy weight on the market. The New York clearing house banks have lest heavily during the week, both on the Interior movement and to Ihe subtreasury. Shipments on balance to the Interior to the extent of nearly $2,000,000 can be traced. The statements of the subtreasury during the week show that Institution to have absorbed on account of Internal revenue and customs payments and deposits for shipment to the Interior, something Lke. $3,800,000, after allowing for payment of $700,000 on account of drafts from the San Francisco mint. Some allowance is to be made for receipts In gold at assay ofllces. which are credited to the banks, but there is apparent loss of cash of nearly $5,000,000. There is no evidence of any sufficient reduction of deposit liabilities by contraction of loans to offset this fall in cash resources. There was not much doing In the bond market to-day, but prices were firmly held. Total sales, par value. $1.5R0,000. United States government bonds unchanged on bid quotations.

In business circles .the general expression Is that very seldom does a month open with better trade prospects than September. None of the retall merchants is overstocked. The steadiness of prices makes it apparent that there will be no early decline, but rather advances In several lines. Especially is this true of dry goods, some of the staple groceries, leather, iron and hardware. In the produce markets there is little new to note. The prices paid for poultry, eggs and butter are fully as good as in former years, while the market Is not overloaded. On Commission row prices for fruits and vegetables, unless very choice, are not satisfactory, as dealers are obliged to sell low to prevent accumulation of perishable goods. The eed merchants report their trade Improving, with little change in values. The flour market Is rather quiet, with unchanged prices. The local grain market it quiet for this season of the year. Receipts are light, as compared with the corresponding period last year. There Is a good demand for all cereals at the following prices, on track, as reported by the secretary of the Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red. 67c: No. 3 red, 63S66c; August, 67c; wagon -rheat. 68c.

PROVISIONS UNLOADED

YELLOW FEVER SCAIIE CAl'SED A FLOOD OP SELLING ORDERS. Wheat Market Sagged Slowly Throughout the Session Corn and Oats Stronger. CHICAGO, Sept. 1. The provision market had the front of the stage cn 'Change to-day. Reports of yellow fever In the South brought a flood of liquidation in meat products and resulted In declines of ZhiftZOc. Corn and oats were strong, corn on the dry, hot weather, corn closing c higher and oats HS'eC higher. Wheat suffered from lack of, interest and closed Uc lower for December, but unchanged for September. The most prominent feature of the day's session In wheat was the extreme dullness of trading, and to this, more than anything contained in the news, was due the slight decline which marked the close in the leading speculative option. The market was a shade lower at the start in both September and December, the result of lower quotations from Liverpool. There was, however, little selling of consequence. Deliveries on September contracts were heavy. Armour putting about 750,000 bu. but this had apparently been discounted by traders, for It had little effect, and buying orders for September were In the hands of several commission houses. December opened a shade lower, at 71 c, and sold at 71H71ic. September opened a shade lower, at &H69c. The market held at about those prices for some time, with but little trading either way. A short period of comparative strength followed, the market reversing the usual order of things, following the lead of coarse grains, which showed considerable strength. But before noon the lack of interest had turned prices downward. It was mostly a scalper's market after that time, and based chiefly on puts and calls. Bears did little until longs got loaded up, but after that they put pressure on the market at Intervals and succeeded la shaking out long wheat In some quantities and cause a slow decline In prices. There was not much export inquiry and the local cash business was slow. This affected the speculative market to some extent. Northwest receipts continued to increase. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 565 cars, against 2U9 last week and S67 a year ago. Chicago receipts were 145 cars, rive of contract grade. Total primary receipts were 824,000 bu, compared with 1,147.000 bu a year ago. Atlantic port clearances of wheat and flour aggregate 470.000 bu. New York put the export en gagements at 30 loads. The demand for beptember kept that option firmer than deferred futures. It advanced to 70c, then declined to t&c and closed unchanged, at 69c. December declined to 71&c and closed Uc lower, at 69$bc. Corn was firm and slightly higher all day. Continued hot weather was reported in the most important corn-producing States, and fears ot damage made the market independent of wheaL There were no deliveries in September contracts, and the cash and export draand were good, all of which helped in the firmness. Receipts were 699 cars. December ranged from 28c to 2S2STsc, and closed He higher, at 2sKc September closed He higher, at 31c. Oats were higher all around, September, especially, developing strength. Shorts were good buyers of that commodity, and prlcea advanced materially. There. was a disposition to buy September and sell December and May, and some of the elevator people were good buyers. The shipping demand was good, and there were no deliveries of September. The strength of corn affected oata considerably. Receipts were 497 cars. December ranged from 19;19c ta 20c, and closed HSV4c higher, at ia74Q20c. September closed Vac higher, at 20iic Provisions were decidedly a.ilve and weak. Official confirmation of tie reported breaking out of yellow fever at Key West caused liquidations from all quarters and flattened out prices of pork and ribs. Lard did not suffer so much. Lower hog prices contributed to the weakness. Packers were moderate sellers. At the close October pork was 22Hc lower, at $8.02H: October lard Be lower, at $5.20fi5.22H. and October ribs 10 12c lower, at $5.105.124.
