Dubuque, la Aug. 13.—The wife of United States Senator W. H. Allison committed suicide by drowning herself in the Mississippi river some time during last night. She left the house yesterday afternoon, shortly after 1 o’clock, in forming her servant that she was going to one of the near neighbors. Instead, however, taking her gossamer under her arm, she weDt iu the opposite direction, toward the country, where she has been accustomed to take almost daily walks. It was ascertained that she wandered around in tbe outskirts of tho city during the afternoon. She was seen by several persons walking rapidly aud apparently very much ex cited. Not returning by 9 o’clock from tbe place she was supposed to be, tbe alarm was given and search instituted and maintained throughout the night. This morning tbe body was discov ered by an outgoiug train, at 7 o’clock, in the river, about a mile below the city. She bad cut up her gossamer, placed some stones in it ami tied them securely about her neck, then walked deliberately into the river, about thirty-five feet from the bank, laid down and was drowned where tbe water was only two and a half feet deep. Mrs. Allison was of a high, nervous temperament, and dur ing the past two or three years has suffered from and been treated for menial disease. While at a water-cure establishment in western New York, in 1881, under medical treatment, she attempted to commit suicide iu inuoh the same manner, hut she was rescued. She was a niece aud adopted daughter of tbe late Beuator Grimes, of lowa, and lias been married for ten years. She has no children. Senator Allison bad opened the cam paign at Clariuria, on Saturday,land yesterday was in Council Bluffs. A dispatch was sent him last night us soon as Uer disappearance became known, but it Is thought he was not reached until this morning. The shocking eveut has thrown a cloud over the community. Late inis afternoon a dispatch was received from a companion of Senator AlUgon, saying lie would arrive on a special train a little before lniduight. Tne body has been embalmed. A great many dispatches of condolence have been received from sorrowing friends. The time for tbe funeral has not yet been determined, nor is It known whether the deceased will be bu ried iu this city or in Burlington, the home of her foster-parents. The Kimball Home Fire. Atlanta, Ga., An*. 13 —The loss by the Kim ball House fire is $600,000 on the building and $125,000 on furniture. On the whole amount there is only SBO,OOO insurance. One reason why the owners carried so little insurance was because of the high rate charged. The Kimball House was considered the worst risk in tho city, aud a rate of 2*a per oent was charged, while on ordinary central property only 1 per cent, is oharged. The Republic Block, just opposite, was insured at I*4 per cent., tbe additiou of 14 being made because of the proximity of tbe block to the hotel. Mr. SooTille, proprietor of tbe hotel, spent $20,000 on improvements and furniture when he was preparing for the Expo sition. He carried a policy of SIO,OOO on This up to a year ago, when he declined lo renew it. At the time of the Are he had only $1,200 insurance. The Associated Press Excursionists. Livington, M.

Distinguished Democrats Indicted for Mal feasance In Office. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Aug. 13.—The grand jury of Baltimore, ibis afternoon, indicted all of the members of tbe now defunct board of fire com missioners, including Mayor Pinkney Wbyte, for malfeasance In office. The news created tbe wildest excitement in Maryland po litical circles, and tbe prediction is freely made that to-day’s business means the total disruption of the Democratic party In that State. To thoroughly appreciate tbo real signi ficance of tli© action takeu by the grand jury against tbe men who, a year ago, stood at tbe head or the Democratic party in Maryland, and many of whom to-day rank among the lead ingcitlzens in a business and social sense, a few words of explanation are necessary- The story is easily told. When, less than two years ago, ex Governor Whyte was elected to the mayoralty, he was the unanimous choice of the “regulars” and “reformers” of tu Democratic party. He had no opposition from the Republicans, and was thus chosen by the uuauimous vote of tbe people. His triumph was, however, short lived. He made blunder after blunder, and was repeat edly checkmated through the opposition of J. Frank Merrieon auu one of his trusted hench men, the defeats being considered crushing. To get even tbe muyor set on foot an investigation of the doings of tiie board of which Morrison was a member. Tbe charge was that Morrison, while a member, had been in atirm that bad ob tained contracts for furnishing supplies to tbo fire department, for which excessive rates were charged the city. The inquiry was turned over to the grand jury. The evidence clearly established that, in a number of instances, excessive charges have been made to tbe fire department for supplies. It then be gan to be whispered about that, as Mayor Whyte was ex-officio president of the board while these bills wero audited, he was equally culpable with the other members of the board, and that if Morrison and Regester were to be iudicted, the mayor and other mem bers of the board were equally liable to indict ment. This idea was scouted by Whyte’s friends, and hence, when tbo news of the grand jury’s action was made public to-day it catue like a crash of thunder in a clear sky. Os the persons iudicted; Mayor Whyte has filled the position of Governor, senator aud mayor; Morrison is at present warden of the jail, and president of the Brush Electric Light Company. Regester. who in ut present in California with the Knights Templars, is a member of the large iron foundry firm of Joshua Regea ter Sons. General Campbell, at present at Ocean City, is a clerk in the Criminal Court. Slingluff is a leading merchant, and Smith is a well-kuown politician, and at present commissioner of streets. The indicted parties have been given until Sat urday to furnish bail in the sum of $3,000 each. This exposure of crookedness'in the Democrat ic management of the city of Baltimore, ooming, as it does, upon the heels of Governor Hamilton’s letter published this morning, in which he charges the Democratic party managers with having stoleu $500,000 of State funds, has thrown the Democrats into a hopeless state of demoralization. The biters have been badly bitten in this case. To the Western Associated Press. Baltimore, Aug. 13.—The grand jury lias pre sented all members or the late commission of the fire department for malfeasance iu office. The board consisted of Mayor White, ex-officio president, and Samuel W. Register, Thomas W. Campbell, J. Frank Morrison, Samuel Hanna, Bartholomew PL Smith and Charles B. Slingluff'. Bail was fixed at $3,000 in each case. The pre sentments caused great excitement and aston ishment about the city ball and court-house. The lato board was surprised recently by the appointment of a tire marshal, and the present ments grew out of charges made ny the present fire marshal against several members of the hoard, ohurging them vytlh furnishing various supplies to the department, and charging more than market rates therefor, in violation of a city ordinance. A DISCIPLE OF SULLIVAN. Pension Agent Fitzgerald Assaults a News paper Man. Special to the Indianapolis Journal, Washington, Aug. 13.—Win. Fitzgerald, a member of a firm of pension claim agents which recently obtained considerable notoriety on ac count of sundry peculiar transactions, lately commented ou by newspaper specials, went luto the office of the Cincinnati Com mercial Gazette, late this afternoon and ussaulted General Boynton, the correspondent of that paper, while he was sitting in a chair and not expecting an attack. Fitzgerald’s stay was brief, however, and his departure rather uudignifled, in fact, so hasty that he quite for got to take his hat aud spectucles with him. Fitzgerald is liable to get a great deal more notoriety from his assault upon General Boyn ton than he bargained for, or than will be good for him. Newspaper correspondents have had occasion, many times during the past few years, to rnzn tbe Fitzgerald establishment, and tins row will furnish an excuse for fresh assaults on the business. The fight this afternoon was an ordiuary scrapping match, neither party emerging therefrom much the worse for the mauling and beard-pulling, but the affair cre ated great excitement on Newspaper Row, and long-winded accounts of tbo fracas were tele graphed all over the oountry. SENATOR M'DONALD. His Campaign Labors to Regin in lowa and Conclude in Ohio. Special to tiie Indianapolis jonrsutt. Washington, Aug. 13.—Ex-senator Joseph E McDonald and Mrs. McDonald passed through the city to-day on their way from Deer Park to White Sulphur Springs, stopping off several hours. They will remain at the springs a few days and then return to Doer Park, after which tho Senator will repair to lowa, where he is PHLCE FIVE CENTS, down for three speeches, the first to be delivered Sept. 1. Ho will not enter the Ohio campaign until about the Ist of October. He declines to be interviewed, on the ground that what ho could say iu an interview will l>e given in his own words, and iu liis owu arrangement in his campaign speeches, and he prefers to let his de clarations go to the public in that form. THE STATE TROOPS. Absurd Speculation* I'.useG on Inquiries by Gene- al Drum. Washington special Some very absurd speculation is current re specting Adjutant-general Drum's purpose in asking the Adjutant-generals of the several States for full information about tiie militia of their States. They were asked specifically to say how long it would take to put their State quotas of a total of 200,000 armed men in the field. General Drum, wbou asked about, this, said that the information was not for use in his annual re port. This remark is the bast* for a great deal of nonseuslcul guesswork, which credits General Drum with preparations for a war with Ger many. for a war with Mexico, or for putting down the great riot on the part of the working men of the couutry. There is reason to believe that General Drum simply desires i Ills information for a special report to Congress on the subject. ft is w.H known that General Drum taken a verv decided interest in the militia. He thinks there should be a uatioual militia at least 200,000 strong, un iformed and equipped by the United States ex actly as federal troops are uniformed and equipped. There should he artllery and cavalry iu the quota which each State would be expected to furnish. The Uuired Stives should tnrnish armories where they are needed, and every other thing which the State did not promise or which the militiamen could not obtain at slight expense. The militia ought to be regarded a* the reserve of the regu ar army. It ought to be so officered amt so trained that ir. could he mobilized within forty-eight hours. Gen eral Drum thinks every State ought to be ready to send at- a moment’s notice such a body of troops as Pennsylvania sent boro at Garfield's Inauguration within thirty-six hours of the rime, when the order to march was given. General Sheriuan said of them: “I coaid not ask better troops. I would not hesitate io lead them against veterans.” Massachusetts and New York have similar regi ments. General Drum thinks every State should have them. He. is doing what he can to bring this about. He encourages the States in every possible way to seek his aid. The regular army could then be kept (.mall. The nation could de pend upon its militia. It could well afford to spend $5,000,000 or $10,000,000 a year in pre paring such an army, and a million or two a year in keeping it up. Congress wit* oh asked by (ieu eral Drum to establish such us. -u in. But Gen eral Drum has no thoughts ol war this slat of a remote future. A MEXICAN ROMANCE. Hbw Maximilian Was to Heroine President ami Santa Anna Commander-iu-Chier. Washington Special. Dr. Manuel Deuilza, formerly private secretary to General Santa Anna, makes public to-day for the first time an interview with the late Emperor Maxi milian, resulting in an agreement between him self, as Santa Anna’s representative, uni Maxi milian, under which the latter was to abdicate the throne, proclaim tho republic, become presi dent for four years, and appoint Santa Anna commander-in-chief of the army. Tho plan was agreed upon nt a meeting of Santa Anna and a few of his prominent followers in New York in the summer-of 1868, and Detniza was intrusted with tbe delicate and dangerous mission. Leaving New York early in October of that year he reached the City of Mexico after several narrow escapes from detect ion and cap ture. He got together a few gentlemen loyal to Santa Anua’s fortunes, and, gaining tlieir appro val of the plan, proceeded to Orizaba, whither Maximilian had Jed. Arrived there Detuiza ad dressed the Emperor over the assumed name of “Jose Santa Elena,” requesting an audience ou “matters vitally important to Mexico and his Majesty,” and requesting no written answer, but that Maximilian would indicate his willing ness “by condescending to stand, it only for one minute, at the window of his private ammiuent facing the street at sj\m precisely, with a white handkerchief in hi* right hand.” The writer would understand the token and present himself at the palace at 10 o’clock the same night. The Emperor responded as desired, and Deinazu, carefully disguised, was ush ered into the presence at the appoint ed hour. After they wero alone Demizd gave the Emperor his true name, and after a long and somewhat stormy interview the audience ended, nor, however.wlthnnt ar ranging for another conference t wo nights later. At the second conference the Emperor agreed to abdicate, proclaim the republic, and appoint Santa Anna eommander-in-ebief, and at the third interview, winch occurred the following night, Nov. 13, an agreement was signed by Maximil ian and Detuiza, representing Santa Anna, as fol lows: First—The Emperor to abdicate the throne, to proclaim a republic under the constitution of Mexico, established in 1854. Second—Tiie Prince Maximilian to assume forthwith the tirle and office of President for a term of four years, ana to issue a proclamation convoking a national assembly immediately. Third—To annul decree of July 12, 1866. by which General Santa Anna’s property was con fiscated. Fourth—To appoint General Santa Anna commander-in-chlcf of tbe republican army. Filth—To adopt the necessary measures to satisfy the foreign creditors of Mexico so that tiie country might be free entirely from tbe in fluence of the French army. Detniza hurried to New York with this import ant document, out ou bis arrival there both he and Santa Anna were confined in Hamilton Park, on Staten Island, and wore thus prevented from having any further negotiations with tbe unfor tunate Emperor, who not long after iost his life. MINISTER MORGAN. llow Our Representative to Mexico Resented a Slight. Washington Special. It has recently been published that the Ger man minister to Mexico delights in taunting our representative in that city by reminding him that tbe United States is a powerless nation. If this is true the Stato Department has no infor mation from Minister Morgau corroborating it. But what is known Is this: It is customary among foreign ministers to acknowledge iu a civil manner tho observance of national events, no matter to what country the affair portends. So on the 4tli of last July, when tho flags of va rious representatives of foreign countries were unfurled in the City of Mexico in honor of the anniversary of American independence, Mr. Morgau noticed the flagstaff at tiie German le gation was bare. He sent word to flie German minister that if the customary courtesy was not promptly observed he would consider if an in sult to hnuself and make the issue a personal one without delay. To this note, it Is said.no answer was returned, but the German flag was immediately displayed over the German lega tion. It is understood that the Secretary of State, by direction of President. Arthur, has commended Minister Morgan for his conduct. GENERAL NEWS. The Appearance of American Officers at a Venezuelan Celebration.

THE DISASTER AT ISCHIA. A Few Incidents of the Terrible Night at C&samicciola. Htatements of Survivors —A Visit to the Ru ins and How Tliey Looked —A Warn in; That Was Unheeded.

London Times, July 31. Many of tbe survivors owe their escape to having been at the time in the theater, situate lit a fortunate distance from stone walls. It was a slight, temporary construction of wood, cov ered with a velarium of canvas. Bignor Giovan ni Caslni, of Arezzo, who was present in it, passed through Rome last night, and the fol lowing is taken from a description given by him to the Gapitan Fracassa: “It was about U:ls when my friend proposed that we should go to the theater. At the half hour the curtain rose; but scarcely were tbe first words of the comedy spoken when we felt a tremendous shock, and I was thrown several feet forward and fell headlong. Imagine, at the same time, a roaring noise, like that of a heavy railway train rushing at full speed onto an iron bridge. While the schock lasted the ground rose and fell like the sea during a storm. What immediately fol i£J{sannot tell; everything weighs upon me ike the night incubus—like a horrible .•.v.Jttf. 1 I remember only that we were a heap of human beings tumbled together; that for a moment we endeavored to extinguish the tiro, and then out we rushed in a torrent. I next re member holding on to the trunk of a tree, and, on casting my eyes upward, I saw its branches were filled with human beings who had clam bered up. Pieces of wood were piled together to light bonfires on the shore as a signal for help. I saw all nmnd an indescribably strange crowd—women in their night attire only; old men in their dressing-gowns, and naked children. •Daring the night half-clothed women were rush ing madly about like furies among tbe ruins, with torches in their hands, calling loudly for their dear ones. Every now and then a squalid, unknown figure, with eyes wildly staring, would rush up to one, asking: ‘Have you seen my husband!’ ‘Have you seeu my soul’ Tbe Syndic of Casamicciolu reports that four days before the catastrophe a dull subterranean Tumbling was heard throughout the island, but j>o one gave any thought to It. At Forio the number of victims is estimated at 300, at Lacco Amcno 500, and at Fontana Serrar 200. Among those who escaped were Prince Gmstiniani Bandinl and his son, who returned safe to Rome last night. Under the ruins of the Asylum of the Miserieordla alone twenty-four children lie buried. Fortunately the want of shelter is no great privation to the remaining inhabitants at this time of the year. But already food is want ing, and the Minister of tbe Interior tans tele graphed giving the fullest powers as regards ex penditure to the authorities. Subscription lists nre being opened everywhere. The Bank of Naples has headed one list with IOO.OOOf, the Syndic of Rome has sent 50,000f, the Minister of Finance 150.000f, the Pope 20,000f, and collec tions are being made from house to house. The Coinmendatora Lagana, directorof the Rubatino Florio Steamship Company, baa sent all of the company’s vessels In the port of Naples to per form gratuitous service between Ischia and the mainland. A great number of pitch torches and hd electric light apparatus have been sent over to the island. All the ambulance corps of the regiments in Naples and the spring cars of the -Hod Cross havo been utilized. A Visit to the Scrne. Vienna AI legem sine Zeitung. We left Naples a few minutes after 10, and ar rived at our destination shortly after 12. After •owe steep climbing I reached the spot where Cusamlccloia once stood. The place consisted of a few groups of houses about 200 paces from the *ea, but, owing to the steepness of the road, it required hair au hour to get there. It further Included a number of detached houses and small farms. I could see before landing that the place bad beeu destroyed; bur the sight I witnessed on reaching the first terrace surpassed my worst apprehensions. It was one heap of ruins, with not one building left standing. The beautiful Hotel Bellevue, once visible a long distance from the Island, has entirely disappeared. I dlscovred the Hotel Gran Sentinella. The stables alone remain erect. All the iamates appear to have perished. Dogs and ducks run about the ■wreck age, scared out of their lives. Military en gineers, In blue and yellow unifoms, and infant ry soldiers are at work with pickaxe and spade. Twelve corpses, eovere. *ich straw matting, are laid out in a row. a suidlcr tells me that They are all men. and that I shall see mi.r fur ther on. I arrived at the second rerrace. TV a pen sion near the Hotel Gran Sentinel!*is like ise in ruins. Here the sight is really terrible A large number or dead bodies He strewn upon rlie ground, fearfully mutilated, with mushed heads mid torn-off limbs, a spectacle too sickening to dwell upon. In tbe garden or the Villa San ve. which is completely wrecked.au ambulance is organized, dome fifty injured, including many women and children, have been conveyed thither. The soldiers have constructed small rush-covered huts, there being no building left in which ac commodation can be provided for the injured. The latter are placed with their heads and chests under the rush roof, the remainder of their bod ies being in the open air. There is no lack of cither doctors or drugs. A sanitary column ar rived by the first boat from Naples, and the phy mcians of the penitentiary establishments at Pro cidaaml Buguo were sent for. All the wounded are dressed In civilian clothes,and were evident ly inmates of the different hotels and pensions. Presently I came up to the ruins of tue Hotel Bellevue, only the outhouses of winch have es caped destruction. An ambulance similar to that at the Villa Suuve bus beeu opened in the back garden. Here I estimate the number of wounded at aboift 100, all iu civilian dress. Dead cattle He about tbe garden, where there are also sev eral live goats. The wieekage or the hotel is being actively cleared away, as it is believed that a large number of people are buried be neatta it. Many Pin red have already been taken our. A few have been reached with mere scratches, afrer spending hours of mortal Terror under ground. Bome of the corpses bear notrace of any external injury, and were evi dently suffocated.

I did not Bee a Single Olio left standing. As these peasants’ dwellings are situated some little distance from each other, it is not so easy to convey assistance to them. Dead and mimed lie scattered around everywhere. In some instances the peasants themselves lend help, but I fear that, as an engineer officer Informed lue, one-hair of the resident population, and almost all the visitors, have perished. The latter were particularly exposed, as they lived in stone-built houses and had retired to their lodgings when the earthquake occurred. Many were suffering from paralysis, rheumatism and gout, and could make no attempt to escape, whereas a number of peasants got safely out of their cot tages. Incidents of the Night. London standard. One of the most-pathetic Incidents is that re specting Count Bergardi, who escaped from the wreck of the Hotel Picoola Sentinella, where he had been staying with bis sister. On recovery from the first shock he resolved to make an at tempt to rescue her, and for three hours worked among the debris, all the while calling out the name of his sister. He worked on, even with bleeding bends, and rescued eleven persons. At length he heard the voice of ills sister, who faiutly answered bu call. He made a dope rate exertion to get near her. but tell and broke hi* leg, and a few minutes later the sister herself expired. Priuce Oiustiniani Badini and his son had a marvelous escape. The prince is described ns having been seated iu a room in the hotel, playing cards with a circle of friends. His son was at the window drawings moonlight scone, when the table was suddenly overturned, and the falling lamn set fire to tbe carpet. Ar Hio une moment the Prince’s son exclaimed: “An earthquake! Save yourselves.” When the sback was felt the walls of the hotel rocked ana open 'd, birt the party managed to reach the door, atid rushed outside amidst the clouds of sulphur i out dust. They were appalled at what had hap pened. and remained amid tbe ruins until day break. An Unheeded Warning. London Telegraph. The engineer officers engaged in the work of salvage are of the opinion that the place will not be habitable for many months to coiiie. Colonel Cordio de Montesimolo has informed one correspondent that the number of victims is at least 6,000. The officers under bis com mand are of me opinion that this figure is not exaggerated. The statement that certain phe nomena premonitory of an earthquake had been observed by the peasants Is confirmed. The season was, however, at its height, and conse quently the oircuuistance was kept secret. Several people were dug out aiive from the ru ins yesterday, some of them having been fifty horns underground. The wife and daughter of u German consul are said to have beeu among them.

Aug. 13 —Captain 8. O Bel fridge, commandant of the torpedo station, has received plans for a complete, plant for tin*.man ufacture of gun-cotton, and expects within three months to have the Intricate machinery in position and supply the whom demand of ’the navy. There is uo private manufactory in thin country, and the goverment has been obliged to depend unou foreign makers and dealers. Enterprising local agents wanted In this town for an articlo tear, if sure to sell, live sweethearts and wives,’ as we old sailors say,’ said ho. The Sec retary wavered, sniffed the punch, mid the aroma entered his brain. It was too much, and virtue lost her favored stronghold, as the whilom temperance lecturer swallowed tbe liquid at one draught, re-ecUoiug: ‘Sweethearts and wives to yon, Commodore.’ Tt was the work of an in stant to refill, repledge and reqnaff. ‘Now’ for night-cap,’ said the Commodore, perfectly en chanted at tli© unexpected success of lus ma neuver, and the third bumper was raised to the now ready lips, when the arm of the recreant was suddenly but firmly grasped by no less a persoiidge than Mrs. Secretary herself. ‘Fie, tie! sir,’ said she. ‘“Let mo alone, Sarah,’ said he of bihulous taste, hilarious enough to be for once independ ent. “‘But,’ stammered the poor woman, utterly dismayed, ‘your temperance pledge.* “‘To your very good health, Commodore.’ an swered the demented man; ‘hero goes,’ tossing down the third glass. ‘You see how it is, Com modore; theoretically I’m temperance, bat prac tically I imbibe.’ “At this iustant, his wife, seizing him bv the arm. whispered in his ear: ‘Jake, you old fool, come home at once. Don’t, you see, with all your theoretical uonseuse, that you arc practically drunk!’ ‘•With this they disapr eared.” Tnese extracts are quite sufficient to show the reason for the social stir which the book has cre ated. These extracts are a fair illustration of its spirit and character. It wiil be accepted as his torical by suobs, and quoted abroad l>y those wlio despise the republic. By intelligent Amer icans it will be received with contempt. An Enterprising Forger. St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 13.—0. M.

A W. system showing an increase of $13,951.80. The earnings in divisions was as follows: Peoria division, $25,- 207.39; increase, $1,251.13. Bt. Louis divis ion, $12,025 80; increase, $3,253 88; middle division, $11,871.04, increase, $6,697.- 99; Ohio division $23,300, iucrease $1,350.78; making total earnings of tin* 1., B. &W system, proper, $72,404.23: increase over earnings first week in Augusr.

UNGENEROUS COMPETITION. Indianapolis Fast-Freight Line Agents An noying Commissioner Fink. Commissioner Fink will form a poor opinion of the fast-freight line agents at this point, unless they behave better. Twice of late has a brother •mat-freight line agent reported a brother agent, Jin each case failed to sustain bis charge. In case investigation showed that the lumber an who was sa.d to have been favored with a it-rate, had never shipped a pound of freight by that fast-freight line, and even went so far as to say he never would while the present party rep resented the line here. In the other case, It was shown that the line in question was the only one which took business tor the point to which it is said a cut-rate was given, ami it is hardly proba ble that in such a case a line agent would cut a rate, and it was demonstrate.! on investigation that the agent cou;d have taken the property at a three-cent lower rate, and then not have really cut the rate. Such charges, when unsustained, not only injure the complaining agent in the estimation of Commissioner Fink, but as well creates an ill feeling on the part of the shipper who is annoyed by Commissioner Fink’s representative, who, to learn the truth in the matter, must ask him to make a statement of facts, as the position of the agent is jeopardized. Twice, recently, has the railroad reporter of the Journal heard ship pers remark that they would have no more to do with the line or the agent that had given them trouble of such a character. GENERAL NEWS. The “Little Bantam” Earning 185,000 Per Day. The Toledo, Cincinnati St. Lonis narrow guage road, in July, earned $92,500, and is re ported to be now earning $5,000 a day, whioh Is at the rate of $150,000 per month. President Phillips tells the directors that “the slitw went down in sight of land,” or, to drop metaphor, if they had waited a month before applying for a receiver, they might have avoidod the step al together. It Is due to Mr. Phillips to stare that he never predicted much improvement in earn ings until the middle of July, and. if the forego ing figures are correct, his prediction* are being almost literally fulfilled. Miscellaneous Notes. The Chicago Northwestern railroad have bought premises on the South Side, at Chicago, lor new general offices and headquarters. The first freight train passed over the Texas A 8t Louis road last week and was composed of forty cars, each of which contained eighty bar rels of salt. The United States Express Company is again handling Pittsburg business, reaching there over the Pittsburg Western road. Over 130 miles of track have been laid on the New Orleans Mississippi Valley road between New Orleans and Memphis, and it is expected that fully forty miles will be laid during August. The Richmond Dauville aud the East Ten .-jesse.**, Virginia A Georgia systems have not hitherto exchanged business. Traffic arrange ments will be nmde immediately, but the com panies will remain independent, it is thought. The New York New England company, on Saturday last, commenced using their double track between Franklin and Bellingham. Be tween Boston and Hart ford this company now has fifty one miles of double track. The work on the other portions of the double track between Boston and Hartford is being rapidly pushed forward, and other poriious of the line will soon he ready for use. PERSONAL AND LOCAL. Whereabouts of Railroad Men—Cassatt's De cision aud Its Effect. W. G. Bala, superintendent of the Chicago A Indianapolis Air-liue, is in the city. Clay Rockwell, of the Chicago A Atlantic aud itor’s office, is spending a few days with friends in this city. H. B. Smith, general freight agent of the Louisville, New Albany Chicago road, is spending a day or two in the city, looking after business matters. General J. H. Devereaux, president of the Bee line; S. T. Tilliiighusr, assistant president of the New York Central road, who are now on their way home from the West, .etched Chicago yes terday. John Shelton, who for many years was an en gineer on the Jeftersouville, Madison A Indiau apolis road, died yesterday at the Insane Asy luui, where he was taken some seven mouths ago for treatment. Ira 8. Pierce, assistant agent and telegraph operator of the Indiana, Bloomington Western road at Troy, 0.. has resigned to lake u position iu the office of Frank Palmer, district passenger agent of the Wabash, St. Loris A Pacific road. The declination of A. J. Cassatt to accept the presidency of the Denver A Rio Grande has given the stock an ugly set-back. Had he accept ed, his successful administration of his duties as an executive officer of the Pennsylvania road would have created great confidence In the fu ture of the properly, and would have doubtless caused a sharp advance in the stook and securi ties. Colonel Edward A. Flint has been appointed chief engineer of the Toledo, Cincinnati A St. Louis railroad, by Receiver Dwight. Colonel Flint is well known lu Boston and has had largo experience in railroad construetion and mainte nance both in this country and abroad. He was engaged iu the early surveys of the Northern Pacific and Atlantic* Pacific roads and in rail way construction in California. Later be had charge of extensive railway systems in Chili and Peru. Local Notes. The Vandalia company will this week begin the erection of a telegraph wire between Logaus port and Lake Maxiukuckee. The board of commissioners of Daviess county have ordered elections held in four of the east ern townships on Sept. 28 to vote aid to the Chi cago Great Boutberu road, C. H. Briggs, train-dispatcher of the Olnoln nan, Wabash A Michigan read, lias been lu the 'Ciiy a day or two. He reporn both passenger aud froight traffic heavy over their road. The Wabash, St. Louis A Pacific Is coming out of the kinks as regards earnings, whioh iu the first week of August were $376,439, an increase of $58,388 over the corresponding week or 1882. The earnings of the Bt. Louis, Alton Terre Haute road (main line; for the seven mouths tiding July 31, were $954,446; an increase of *12.381 over earnings corresponding period The earnings of the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, ;fit. Louis A Chicago road for the seven month* •ending July 31, were $1,354,274; corresponding month, 1882, $1,409,653. Decrease this year. 2^55,479. Agent Holbrook, of the Empire line, has just returned from an extended trip through South ern Illinois, and he returns stronglv impressed with the idea that freight traffic is to Delight until late this fall. There Is a big fight on between the local pas senger agents to secure the Quakers in this sec tion who go to Higiit Point, N. C., to attoud the i early meeting. The Jelltoo route, the J. M. A .or the C., 1., St. L. C. to Louisville and the Louisville Nashville are now competors in the field, aud being some 200 miles the shortest route, the old lines are hnvinga poor show. One party of forty went south over the J., M. A 1. last night. The local passenger train on the Loiisville, Now Albany A Chicago road is run se greater than the original cost of the street’s improvement. He characterized the improvement as a “gouge,” but voted for the appropriation of SIO,OOO, because, he said, “the money had to be spent.” Mr. Tucker stated that he concurred in ail that Mr. Seibert had said, and voted for the appropriation because, he said, “there was no money to spend.” W. K. Holloway, the commissioner of Circle park, complained to the board that the drivers of express aud trausfer wagons, who congregate übout tho park, have become a nuisance, and requested that the wagon-stand should be trans ferred to the State-nouse or court-house square. The matter was referred to the committee ou public property. J. R Shelton, the master of the West mar ket, submitted a proposition to the board, offering to continue the market, paying the oity taxes and the S3OO claimed as reuts, and making settlement with the oity treasurer weekly. The proposition was referred to the committee on murketa. The finance com mittee in reporting Upon The action of the Coun cil in accepting a proposition to lease tho West market to C. E. Coffin A Cos., recommended non concurrence, and that other suitable grounds should be procured for u market place. A resolution was introduced hf Mr. Tucker, requesting the telepboue company to reduce payment from three months in advance to thirty days, with thb exception of the first three months the telephone is in use by subscribers, aud “that if this request is not compiled wita within thirty days, that tho city attorney shall present to the Council an ordinance repealing all rights grunted to the telephone company.” The resolution was adopted, Messrs, locker, Seifert. Wood and Layman voting in the affirma tive, and Messrs Konsou aud Hamilton luihe negative. Mr. Tucker introduced a resolution providing for the use or the money raised from the eaioon tax levy for the City Hall fund in building a via duct over tbe railroad crossing ou Virginia avenue. The City Hall fund cannot be used for the special purpose for which it wus raised, and the resolution provides Tor the repeal of the City Hall ordinance. Tne resolution further proposes that the work upon The viaduct- shall be begiiu as soon as the railroad companies give a guaran tee that they will pay the cost of the part cross ing their tracks. I. is provided that a committee of interested citizens shall bo appointed, in ad dition to the one selected in Nov., 1882, to bring tbe matter before the railroad companies and learn the probable coat- of the viaduct.
