HALF CENTURY'S GROWTH

FIFTY YEARS SINCE THE FENNSYLV AMA ROAD W AS BULT. ( I velnnd to Hnu- the Flneat Inion St it lion in the 4 on n try La rare turning of the BIk Four. rin Doc. 10, the first Pennsylvania train was run through over the Pennsylvania Central Railroad from Philadelphia to Plttsburg. Sonue residents of Pittsburg recall the event and apeak concerning its importance. The train which reached Pittsburg from Philadelphia Dec. 10, 1852, was run over the famous Portage Railroad in tinns. These planes were ten In number, five or. either side of the mountains. The total length of the Portage road was 36.5 ml If On the eastern side It ascended 1,399 feet in ten miles; on the westward side 1,171 f"-, in miles. The State built the road at a cost of $2,000.000, and it was one of the wonders of that day. It was not abandoned until Feb. 15, 1854, when the mountain division of the Pennsylvania was opened. In 1Ss52, when the first trains drawn by locomotives crossed the mountains into Pittsburg, its employes numbered but a few hundred; Its total pay roll In all departments was $400,000 and Its giröa income $2.000.000. The entire rolling stock consisted of one thousand cars and fifty locomotives. In the year ending June 30, 1901. t!e roster of the Pennsylvania Railroad, extending from Pittsburg to New York, carried 106.00U employes and the magnificent total of its pay roll was $75,o00,000. Its gross Income was $198,62,878, while Its dividends exceeded $10,000.000. Instead of a single track there are four tracks, with steel railp welahlng 100 pounds to the yard, and a total trackage ea t and west of 10,485 miles. The Pennsylvania now owns 4.296 locomotivee, 3.088 passenger cars, not including 600 Pullman cars, and 1R6.828 freight cars, besides hundreds of private, stock, fruit, refrigerator and coal cars belonging to private companies are run over the road. To Huild a Fine Union Station. The plans for the new union station at Cleveland are about completed. The original intention was that the station should be occupied exclusively by the Lake Shore, the Big Four and the Pennsylvania, the Lake Shore owning 60 per cent, and the Big Four and the Pennsylvania each 26 per cent., but it is understood that the Erie and tho Baltimore & Ohio have decided to go into the station, and It is thought the Wheeling & Lake Erie will be brought in. The plans for the station are unique. There will be three stories for traffic In the one building. On the level of the present tracks frtight trains will pass back and forth; forty feet above, on an Iron trestle, which will be above the present level of Erie street, will be the passenger tracks; running from the main waiting room of the station will be a subpassage way which will lead to the opposite side of the building. This will be about ten feet below the tracks of the passenger trains. It will have running up from it stairs leading to long platforms between the tracks. In this way vast number of passengers can be carried without any of them coming In contact with any of the trains or being andangered by passing engines. The station will be built of steel and marble and will be one of the tinest from the standpoint of art in the country, as well as an architectural oddity. It is said the cost of the Improvement mayexceed $6,000,000. Have Advanced Grain Rates. The article which appeared in the Journal yesterday to the effect that it had been decided not to advance grain rates on account of Western iines declining to go into the arrangement was but partially true Inquiry of some of the Chicago lines yesterday by Indianapolis shippers who were charged the new rate on grain developed the fact that pome of the Chicago roads luve advanced rates on grain proper but tod on flour, but the roads which adopted such a course, it is stated, have no cars to l a.l and will not have the present month, consequently shippers are not benefited; but the impression prevails that all roads will have old contracts out of the way by Jan. 1. when there will be a general advance of grain rates. Wnlnh EztendtniK Ht Linea. General Superintendent Thompson, c? John R. Walsh's Southern Indiana Railroad, on Friday at Terre Haute confirmed the report that an extension would be built from Elnora to Evansville and that work on the seventy miles of road would begin next spring. There has been much conjecture that Mr. Walsh intended to build from Terre Haute to Chicago, but Mr. Thompson says it is "believed it would be better t provide traffic from the south for tho northern extension first." In the counties farther south coal mines will be opened soon. When completed the trackage of the road will be 275 miles. Because Of the proposed extension 2.275 new freight cars have been ordered. Personal, Local and General !Votea. John K. Cowen. formerly president of the Baltimore & Ohio, has returned from his trip abroad. Inquiry. The Erie was the first railroad to uso telegraph for all train orders, and the Lackawanna soon followed. G. A. Clark, of the Illinois Central, has been appointed general manager of the Tennessee Central, succeeding L. S. Miller The Illinois Central earned in November ?::.;:o.2ö8, an increase of $204,894. 8ince July 1 its gross earnings have Increased $996.857. Tho I'oorla & Eastern earned In the first m ok of this month $54.352.60, an increase over the corresponding week of last year of $3.V25.86. The Big Foru lines proper earned in the first week of December $363.SS(?.fi3. an into iso over the corresponding week of 1901 of $5.032.40. Several of the railroads are this month paying their employes a week earlier than usual, that thoy may have money for Christmas Qaorga W Simmons, master mechanic of the Philadelphia & Reading at Pottsvillo. who was struck by a Pennsylvania railroad shifter, is dead. Indignant denial of the reported intention of local agents of the Baltimore & Ohio to strike unless a 10 per cent, increase In pay is grantod is made by representative agents of the line. Reduced one-way settlers' rates will be in ( Red from Feb. 15 to April 30. which will probably force the putting In of roundtrip home-seekers rates by competing lines for the same period. The Pullman Company is delivering to tho Baltimore & Ohio several new dining oars intended for their best trains. It is said these are among the handsomest ever built by these works. Executive committees of the Master Mechanics' and Master Car Builders' Association met in Buffalo on Thursday and s. looted Mackinac as tho point to hold their annual convention next June. The 1 .aeka war.na in its ll I SBlieiiesS is stirring up tho managers oi cowpetliHl lines. Heretofore it has never been troublesome to competitors, but It has now improved its passf flSf I ei ice and will hereafter turn its attention to fast freight trains. It is rec6avta tw nty-five fast mogul locomotives. Tho Pere Marquette is growing both ways. Active work is to be started at once on the lake from Chicago to Buffalo. The same syndicate has acquired the Lake Erie & Detroit River Railroad, which will be i. d over to tho Pore Marquette, and the .- tension from St. Thomas. Ontario, to Buffalo will be built as soon as possible. fames C. Clark, president of the Mobile & Ohio, who died Dec. 9, was one of the most widely -known railroad men in this country; he was seventy-nine years of age and commenced his railroad career at an early age. While he retained his official position up to the time of his death, of Sita be was unable to give It close attention. A. K Helton, agent of the Monon at Ploomlngton. was In the city yesterday. !. Is proud of Bloomington. the most important station, aside from terminals, on the Monon line. This remark applies to both passenger and freight traffic. Often thirty to forty cars are loaded there daily and the average through the year is twenty-five cars ;er day. Tho nalllWMlSS A Ohio will expend $1.500.000 in improvements at terminals to meet the demand of Its greatly Increased trlffic; IHai.iMi will . nt at Holiowav. o , on the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling Road. The -.itui contemplates a large freight yard and

the erection of a roundhouse and repair shops. Five hundred thousand dollars is to be expended at Kuyser, W. Va.. and a like amount at Fairrrount. Traveling passenger and freight agents are pleased over the report that the antipas agreement of the trunk lines is not likely to be renewed. Contrary to published

reports, no action was taken in the matter i at the recent meeting of the trunk-line presidents. The failure, it Is stated, of the Central Traffic lines and Western roads to pass a similar agreement is taken as evidence that the time is not ripe for such an agreement. The board of directors of the Pennsylvania reluctantly accepted the resignation of J. B. Hutchison, general manager. Failing health induced Mr. Hutchison to resign his office. The directors have not yet announced his successor, but It Is understood that it will be W. W. Atterbury, general superintendent of motive power at Altoona. and he will be succeeded by R. R. Durbory. superintendent of motive power of the Pennsylvania division. The Pullman Company is buüding a dining car for the American Tourist Association which will be a novelty in many ways. Its name will he "Qualnt-in-to-co-mat-zin." which means noble eater of the royal dish. The car will be the largest in the world, seating forty persons in the saloon part and eight in the private dining room. The train will be provided with an automatic musical device, which plays for both the saloon and private dining car. Passenger Conductor Frank Heminway, one of the oldest employes of the Lake Shore, died at his home In Toledo esrly Friday morning, aged sixty-four. He became ill on Sunday from neuralgia of the heart but finished the run to Elkhart and then took another train back to Toledo Monday afternoon. On his way from the Toledo station to hi home he fell twice and finally reached his residence exhausted. He left a widow. He was a member of Toledo Division. No. 26. Order of Railway Conductors. J. D. Neman, formely chief clerk of the passenger department of the Southern Pacific, has been appointed general Eastern Immigrant agent, with headquarters in New York. This department now has 325 agents working for Texas and Louisiana, and new men are said to be receiving appoiiitment.-s at the rate of twenty-five per month. The intention of the company is to have one thousand land and Immigrant agents who will give their entire time to matters connected with settling of territories on the line of the Southern Pacific. Two more railroad men of national standing have been added to the directorate of the Kansas City. Mexico & Oriental Railway. One is Russell Harding, general manager of the Missouri Pacific; the other, George Crawford, former vice president of the Central Pacific. This gives the Orient a directory of leading railroad men of the country George Gould. E. Warren Proudy. former president of the Chicago, Rock Island &. Pacific; J. C. Odell. former assistant manager of the Northern Pacific and general manager of the Baltimore & Ohio, and E. Dickenson, former general manager of the Union Pacific. Several changes will become effective on Sunday on the Pennsylvania line. The L & V. will discontinue Its 5:45 p. m.

RETAIL TRADE IS HEAVY

IXDH TIOS POIXT TO lPRECEDKVTEU HOLIDAY BISINESS. Iron and Steel Nominally Easier R. G. Dun A ('(. Trade Review Weekly Report of the Rank Clearinga. NKW YORK. Dec. l2 Bradstreets. tomorrow, will say: Retail distribution, further stimulated by colder weather and the advance of the holiday season, has expanded largely until now it easily occupies first position in the trade situation. Wholesale trade, except where inroads on retailers' stocks have induced reorders, is relapsing into the quiet usual at the stock-taking period. Building trade activity has been checked by climatic influences, and the distribution of lumber and building materials generally is less active. Other leading industries also note the quieting down usual at this season. Great basic conditions, however, make for future prosperity. Railway earnings, swelled by heavy traffic in grain and mis cellaneous products, offsetting smaller movements in live stock, provisions and cotton, show an increate of 7.2 per cent, for November over the same month a year ago. Cold weather and snow have helped distribution at retail in the Northwest, and the outlook is for an unprecedented holiday listribution on the Pacific coast. Reor ders of heavy goods from Jobbers are still of moderate proportions at the West, but spring sales art- larger than a year ago In dry goods, shoes and clothing. nonaay trade is brisk for this early stage or tne season at the East. It has been a narrow market for cotton. Heavy clothing, shoes and rubber goodi- have moved into consumption largely during the week, and spring business Is reported or nattering volume. There is but little new in the c ot ten goods market, the export branch being still very dull. Woolen goods are Ol, and tho mills are well empioyea. Hides and leather are dull and rather quiet. Lumber is joiet. as already noted, but prices are unimpaired. Alone among the Industries, iron and steel show some symptoms of weaker prices for crude material, but this, on tne wnoie. is more apparent than real, because de mands for supplies are as pressing as ever, and production has not yet overtaken con sumption. Lower prices for coke iron at the est and weaker quotations lor roreign foundry iron at the seaboard may be really regarded as readjustments of the abnormal situation previously prevailing. Heavier forms of finished material show no signs of weakness. Rather more interest is taken in pig iron. Judging from the reopening of negotiations by the leading in terest with the Bessemer Association for deliveries in the second half of 1908. Pig iron production at the East is Improving. Wheat, including flour, exports for the week aggregate 3,761,047 bu, against 5,704.440 l ist week, 3,s77.6o8 in this week last year, and 4. Tö,. "77 in 1900. Wheat exports since July 1 aggregate 120,507.495 bu, against 136.J03,381 last season and &6,008,003 in 1900. Corn exports aggregate 1, 301,286 bu, against 1.151.630 last week. 278. 30T last year and 4.S53.453 In 1900. For the fiscal year exports are 5.160.186 bu, against 19,794,458 last season and S4, 906,396 In 1900. R. G. Don on Trade. NEW YORK. Dec. 12. R. O. Dun A Co.'s weekly Review of Trade to-morrow will say: Lowe" temperature and holiday demands have combined to accelerate retail trade, sales largely exceeding the corresponding week in preceding years. Much postponed business Is being made up and shipping departments are crowded with work, but wholesale trade has ruled quiet. Railroad earnings for the month of November exceeded last year's by 7 per cent., and those of 1900 by 20.5 per cent. At first glance the sudden rise in furnace stocks of pig iron to 94.295 tons, compared with 71,859 tons on Nov. L might suggest that consumption was below production, but, obviously, any accumulation that occurs is due to inadequate transportation facilities, since needs are urgent, as evidenced by the imports of Eastern steel works. The pressure is still greatest for railway supplies, with structural material next as to urgency of demand. Small supplementary orders for spring shoes are received by New England shops, but the season is practically over. Aside from activity in Cnion sole, the leather market has been quiet. Further recessions have occurred in domestic hides. On the other hand, foreign dry hides are firmly held, despite increased receipts. Conditions are practically unchanged as to cotton goods, a firmer volume of orders preventing accumulation at the mills. Quotations are steady and export sales of heavy brown cottons continue very small. Woolen goods for next fall have been opened at an average advance of from 5 to 10 per cent Failures this week in the United States are 269. against 204 last week. 213 the preceding week and 273 the corresponding week last year, and In Canada, thirty, against fifteen last week, sixteen the preceding week and seventeen last year.

Higher Prices for Poultry Are Expected Floor Market la Stronger Very Light Cereal Arrivals. As in years past, as the holidays draw near trade in some lines increases while in others there is a falling off. Just now dealers in fancy notions and confectiontries are having a great run of business, the three leading confectioners shipping goods by many carloads daily. All retailers are either purchasing or have already covered their wants In this line, while churches and other large holiday buyers are in the field. Many manufacturers of confectionery are considerably behind with orders and are working night and day to catch up. All other holiday line exhibit seasonable activity, showing that retail merchants are preparing for a very large business. The advance in refined sugar which came on Tuesday was expected, and occasioned neither surprise nor inconvenience. Brokers had prepared Jobbers for it. and they had in turn notified their customers, all of them having ample time to make preparation if they desired to cover future requirements at old prices. Coffee presents no new features, the local market remaining unchanged as to quotations. Canned goods and dried fruits hold their own and are moving steadily. Salt mackerel is firm at the advanced prices ruling since the first of last week. The fruit and produce markets wer very active in preparation for Saturday's trade on the part of retail merohants and market men. There is an active demand for fancy apples, and they sell at high prices. Oranges and bananas are good sellers, and oranges are improving in quality. Irish and sweet potatoea are selling readily at unchanged prices, with the supply still ample for all requirements. Cranberrj salei are increasing and prices are firm. Poultry la very firm at quotations, and although the supply is more plentiful, it will not affect prices. which will be 2 or S cents a pound higher than last year if present conditions hold. Still, it is too early to predict what prices will be with any certainty. Flour is brightening up and prices are decidedly firm. Street stands will open on Monday with Christmas trees and other green decorations, and sales promise to be large, but the same prices will prevail as last year. Indianapolis Grain Market. On account of the rains of two or three days past receipts of cereals have been lighter, but fair weather will soon swell the volume, as immense quantities of grain are in condition to be shipped safely. There is a tendency to further advance prices of corn. Track bids, as reported yesterday by the secretary of the Board of Trade, ruled as follows: Wheat strong; No. 2 red, 78c track; No. 2 red, 73c on milling freight; No. 3 red, 71c track: wagon, T2c.
