CLEVELAND AND TOLEDO RAILROAD
The Annual Report Of the Directors of the
Cleveland and Toledo Railroad contains the
following statement in relation to the pro
posed new lines to be laid down on the route,
which may be of interest to the public:
s'The authority given to the Directors, al
the last annual meeting Of the stockholders,
ia reference to connecting the two divisions
Of the eompany's road between Oberlin IN
Elyria, has not yet been exercised any furth
er than TO make Overturs5 with the right Of
Way-Bhich, to a certain extent, they have
aequiesced in, and but for the other necessary
work on the main line ofthe cOmpany's road.
and the difficulty in procuring men, the work
would now be in progress, We are in hopes
to be able to make such progress with the
work this season, or at least to prepare the
road bed.
" The question now arises, since the ter
minatiOn Of the suits against the company as
to the Northern Division, what is to be the
future policy Of the company in reference to
this line Of the company's road. 0vertures
have been made to the company by the citi
zens Of Saudusky to furnish the right Of way
between Sandusky and Fremont to the com
pany free Of expense, Conditional that the
company will connect their lines Of road be
tween these points, a distance of about 2j
miles This connection, to some extent, would
give the company two lines distance Of
about sixty miles-unitiRg at Elyria on the
East and at Fremont on the West-and would
be some advantage to the company in run
ming its freight trains during the winter
months; and by constructing this line it
would, unquestiOnably, bring considerable
freight from the Fremont and Indiana Road
to Sandusky, for shipment, and add, 10 some
extent, to the business of the road-though
the expense Of maintaining and running it
would increase the expenses of the company,
Should the stockholders deem il expedient to
make connection by constructing the
twenty-five miles Of road, it will be advisable
for them to give the Directors discretionary
authority"

TaE EXCURSION TO NIAGARA FALLS
The Excursion of the steamer Morning Star
to Niagara Falls, came of on Friday as
announced. By far the largest number of
excursiOnists we're from Indianapolis and
vicinity, although there was a goodly num-
Der from Toledo. But few went from here.
The boat was thronged in every part, there
being nearly seven hundred on board
Great dissatisfaction was caused among the
exeursiOnists when It vas ascertained that
state room could not be secured at less
price than ten dollars. Some Of them sold
as high as twenty five dollars. The most Of
them were taken at those prices, however,
There was a great deal of growing at the
extortion, the passengers considering it a
downright swindIe. We may say that the
officers of the boat are in no way response
bic for it. Tho boat was chartered by an In
dianapoIis man named May, for the excur-
sion, and he was at liberty to got what he
could for the sta:e rooms.
The cabin presented q strange spectacle
during the night, sofas, chairs, tables, and
the floor being covered with drowsy human
ity endoAvoring to get little rest.
The boat reached Buffalo safely at ten
o'clock Saturday morning, but too late for
the morning train TO the Falls. On reaching
the Niagara depot the excursionists learned
that no arrangements had been made for
sending them on TO the Falls, and that they
must wait until half past two clock P. n,
paying ono dollar each for ticket to the
Falls and return.
The excursion tickets which they had
bought read to +" Niagara Falls and return, j"
and the people were justly indignant that
they were asked to disburse an additional!
dollar Their indignation waxed so loud
and strong that May was forced to defray
the expenses Of the railroad trip himself.
A worse tempered lot Of people never before
visited the mighty cataract than was the
throng who had been led by tho brilliant in
dueements Of May TO go upon the excursion
The Morning Star was to have left Buffalo
at O'Clock last evening, on her return, and
will probably reach here at an early hour
this morning. The 4" moonlight excursion -
Of the Star from Buffalo, on Saturday night
was a great success, the boat being thrOnged.
May must have made a very handsome
profit out of his speculation, though he has
given a severe blow to excursions.
