llN CASE THE PROPERTY OWNERS MAKE A PROTEST, THE MATTER WILL BE PUT UP TO THE CITY COUNCIL.
Deapite the objections of certain (manufacturers on North K btrcet heHween Tenth and Sixteenth streets, it J aluiOrit certain that that section of '.North E street will be paved and that their will be new guttern. curbs and sidewalks placed. It is understood that the board of public works will confirm a resolution to this effect, and Jn cae of a remonstrance, which is certain to be filed, the matter will be placea in the hands of council for final action. It is the general opinion that council would order the improvements ide over the remonstrance. Think Improvements Needed. City officials are not in sympathy with stand taken by the manufacturers on North E street, that the proposed Improvements are unnecessary. They are of the opinion that North E ttreet from Tenth street east is without doubt the worst street in the city, and will continue to remain po until it has been paved. The city officials state that macadamizing the street would only be a foolish expenditure of the city's and property owners' money, as the heavy trucks and drays that are constantly passing over the street, would soon wear ruts and holes. They think that it would be as sensible o regravel it as to macadamize it. Protests Are Expected. The proposition to pave Eighth treet from North A to South A. and to pave North Third street and North I has as yet brought forth no protests but it is probable that if the board should confirm resolutions for the proposed improvements of these streets, remonstrances would be filed by irate property owners. If council would continue to hold the same opinion regarding the improvements of these streets, as it does, now, it is almost
certain that the city fathers would confirm the action of the board when the matter was. referred to them. It is the opinion that tho city should t?hare half the cost of the proposed improvements, as they would be a generul benefit to the city.

Although affecting the railroads to a disadvantage in some ways, the new two cent passenger rate law recently passed by the Indiana general assembly and now effective, seems to be working to the advantage of the roads in other ways, as they are now drawing much travel that has heretofore been going to the interurbans. This is true in Richmond, for during the past
few days the increase in local traffic on the different divisions of the Pennsylvania running out of Richmond, has been remarkable. It has almost trebled. The steam roads are mak
ing better time than the interurbans'
and many people prefer the railroads to the Interurbans at" a half cent less per mile. ' However, the interurbans have the bulge on the railroads as far as running frequent trains is concerned. The conductors, ticket agents and all whose duties require them to elbow up against the new law each day, are now getting their duties systematized to a good degree of accuracy. The conductors still have' their troubles, however,
and particularly is this true in the cash paid half-fare business. The , commuters of the new ticket rates un- j der the law probably did not take into j consideration the fact that half fares 1 would continue to be granted at the
same old stand, and as the result when a cash half fare is paid on the trains tho conductors have to do quite a good deal of figuring before they can ascer
tain the proper amounts to be charged j including the proper excess. It is prob-j
able, however, that within the course of the next few days, the half rate cards will be received. Notwithstanding reports and predictions to the contrary, there are fewer cash fares.paid on the trains since the effectiveness of the law than ever before and the refund blanks are not
as much trouble as was anticipated. No refund blanks will be issued to in-;

C. & L. are making preparations to reduce the running schedule between Cincinnati and Chicago on through trains to eight hours, and it is thought this will be done when the next change in time tables is made. The improvements on the north end of the line, which Consist mainly of ballasting the new roadbed, will be rushed to completion in order that the new schedule may be installed. It is not known definitely, but it is hoped by C. C. & E. employes that more day trains both north and south will be installed. It is said that if the C. C. & L. wishes to compete with the Pennsylvania, the road will have to arrange its schedule of local trains so that more will be run during the day. The morning and evening trains are all that are provided for
Richmond travelers at present. Agents all along the C. C. & L. line, and particularly those north of Richmond, report that the business of the road has picked up wonderfully since the establishment of the new schedule The train passing through Richmond at -midnight enters the - 'Windy- City" with its Pullman cars loaded while the local trains are receiving a good share of the business. WANT MORE LENIENCY.
Owing to the fact that the Interstate
Commerce Commission is rigidly enforcing the safety appliance law in regard to freight cars, many of the railroads of the country, it is said, will ask the commission to not be so strict, at least until the roads can get the great amount of freight throughout the country on the move. By enforcing the rule it is said that vast numbers of cars are thrown out of use, particularly on " the western roads. NEW TERMINAL STATION. . The Santa Fe, Wabash, Erie, Grand Trunk, Monon and probably the Chicago and Eastern Illinois are contemplating the construction of a $20,000,-
000 terminal station in Chicago. If4 realized this would be probably the! finest railroad station in the world. j CLASSIFICATION OF RATES. j It is stated that when the shippers ! and railroad officials, who meet thisj month to agree upon a uniform bill of lading, dispose of the troublesome : matter the officials will take up more seriously than ever the question of a
more uniform classification of rates.

WILL ADD STALLS. According to reports in Richmond, the C' C. & Li. will add nine more stalls to its roundhouse in Peru that
it may accomodate fully, the engines J now owned by the road and those ' in t
prospect. It is understood that new through passenger engines of powerful build will be purchased as soon as the schedule for the through trains is arranged. The round house at Peru as it stands at present is entirely to small to accomodate the needs of the road rnd many engines are required to stand in the weather owing to the scarcity of accommodations for them, within shelter. Freight engines Nos. 210 and "01 along with passenger engine No. 50 have - leen turned out of the shops, liaving undergone a thorough overhauling. They will be placed in service through Richmond immediately. ARE DOUBLY WATCHFUL. Since the many attempts io wreck Pennsylvania trains, track walkers over the entire system hare become doubly watchful. Two men have been placed in the position as track walkers for each three miles of track out of Pittsburg and as the result already two suspects have been caught.
