WILMINGTON CAR WHEAL Is.

At recent meeting of the Car Builders'
Association, held ip New York, . leading
position was taken in the debate, upon the
endurance Of car wheels, by Mr.. W. w
Lsbdell, of this city. Mr.. M. N. Forney, Of
the Railroad Gazette, said that, in recent
visit to Wilmington, DEL, hs had seen a
pair of chilled cast-iron truck wheels which
had been turned off by the Lsbdell Car
Wheel Company and were new in use under
an engine on the Philadelphia, Wilmington
4 Baltimore Railroad. He had always sup
posed that it was impossible to turn chilled
wheels, owing to their great hardness; but
the fact that chilled rolls of paper mills
have, for many years past, been turned off,
ought to have Indicated the possibility OF
turning chilled wheels. MIR. Lobdell and
Mr.. HOdgeman-the latter, Master Mechan-
ic OF the road, referred to-were both pre-
sent, and he hoped they would give report
Of the experiment referred to.
Mr.. W. W. Lobdell, Secretary sfthe Lob
dell Car-Whecl Company, said that the
wheels referred to had been in use on the
Baltimore Central Railroad for nearly a
year, and had run from $4,000 to 14,O00
miles, when one ofthem developed spot,
which made it necessary to remove it. 1t
then occurred to him to try the experiment
of turning off the pair OF wheels, as the
manufacture and turning of chilled rolls
has for long time been part of his firms
business, and Mr.. Hodgeman agreed to put
them under an engine. They were 20 inch
es in diameter, and he thought about 3-16
of an inch was turned off, so that their di-
ameters were reduced about "a of an inch.
The tool used was sort ofscraper the full
width of the tread of the
wheel, and was made of srdinsry tool steel
hardened by q patented process of which
their company had bought the secret and
right to use. In turning the wheel it is ne
cessary to run The lathe very slowly, and
considerably raore power 10 required to do
it than for turning off steel wheel. His
appliances for doing this work were
very imperfect, but with them it took
from one to two days to turn uf one wheel.
The pair Of wheels turned were now in use
in the back end of an engine truck, the
front wheels of which have steel tires weld
ed to cast-iron center on the SAKE Il Kear
plan. These latter were also turned. The
engine has now run about II 900 miles with
these wheels, land up to the present time the
steel wheels have shown the most wear.
The cast-iron wheels have worn perfectly
smooth, with hardly any apparent wear. In
turning them the "spot" referred to was not
entirely turned out, and he had watched
carefully to see weather it had increased in
size, and found that it had net, but the
marks which remained after being turned
had almost entirely disappeared.
The discussion. which was of considera-
bic length was kept up by several car-wheel
manufacturers of other cities, in conjunc-
tion with Mr.. Lobdell.

IRON kHIP4.

In tho following sub-sditorial Of yestsr-
days Philadelphia Evening Bulletin there is
an implied compliment to the iron skip
building industries of Wilmington:
The Pacific Mail St .amship CompaAy's 3
steamer which fOundsred the other day off
the coast of Oregon, was wooden vessel.
If it had been an iron ship, built at one of
the yards on the Delaware, We should have
had frsm all the free trade papers q pro-
longed howl about the madness of attempt
ing to build up an iron ship-buildiny indus
try beneath the shadow of = protective
tariff, and the folly of entrusting human
lives to American steamers while English
steamers can be had upon reasonable terms.

ton comes to us without tho endorsement
of the critics of New York and other large
cities. 1t is not too much to say, however,
tlat ito composition is in every respe
highly creditable to the originators Of the
enterprise. Miss Adelaide Phillips has
been too long before the American public to
require any special comment. Her abilities
are well known, and the highest praise that
can be paid her, is to refer to her success in
the past, in opera, oratorios, or the concert
room. Mr.. Tom Karl, the tenor, has also
appeared before in this city, and is favora-
bly, regarded by the music-lovins public
The other artists, however, are almost all
strangers, with the exception of one or two
who have been here with former troupes.

neritorious Company:

beautiful Opera of Girohe-G Girofa, one OF
those exqnisite creations of the famous
French composer, Lecocq, full of brilliant
musical gems, and a. rendered by the Hol-

THs DECLINE OF BASE BALL.
At meeting of the Athletic Base Ball
Club, which took place in this city, yestsr.
day. There was general overhauling Of
books of account ,and the contributing mem
bers were so dismayed at the exhibit, that
for time, permanent dissolution of the or
ganization was under consideration. The
receipts for the year were shown to be $685.
900, while the expenditures footed up $685..
900. The result was turned upside down
and downside up several times, and it wal
finally concluded that the loss was, in a
great degree attributed to the system OF
gambling, which has taken of late, such
forcible possession Of the game, to the sim
pie pleasure of witnessing an Athletic sport.
To overcome the sad drawback to an
amusement, which, in the abstract was de-
serving Of the greatest popularity. it was
finally resolved that the Athletic
Club would aid to tho full extent of its in
fluencs in crushing out this nefarious oppo-
sition, and that next season they would take
the initiative step towards reform, by en-
couraging the attendance, upon the grounds
of ladies and gentlemen Of standing in the
community.
THE READING RAILROAD MURDER.
The other night, man, under the influ-
ence Of liquor, got on board Reading
Railroad train, having first purchased his
ticket for Norristown. The conductor came
along, when Manayunk was reached took
the mans ticket, ''punched it''-and as the
passengers subsequently asserted, failed to
return it to him. At any rate, when the
conductor again made his round the man
hadn't his ticket ,and the conductor put him
off the train. The unfortunate passenger,
intoxicated and bewildered by the loneli-
ness of the region in which he was deserted,
stumbled along, not knowing whittier he
was going, when an express train, coming
from an opposite direction struck him and
knocked him lifeless into an adjoining
field.
An inquest on the case took place yester-
day, at which jury, under the direction of
Coroner Foy, rendered verdict censuring
the company and holding the conductor i'm
mediately responsible for the mans death.
After the deceased was put off the train his
ticket was found laying in the seat which
he had been occupying.
