for many years, was found dead Saturday morn
ing, at the ST. Cloud Hotel From the crcum-
stances attending his death it is believed that Mr
Nichols committed suicide. His friends were un-
able to give a reasonable motive for the deed. Mr.
Nichols was about thirty nine years old and ono Of
the oldest members of the stock Exchange. lie had
been engaged in business since Ee attained his
majority. AT one time ne was regarded as wealthy,
but in the past few years he had suffered serious
rcvcr>cs. Twice he had been suspended from the
privileges OF the EXcuaugc, 10 which me was rem
stated only "a few week. ago. Some years ago lie

PACIFIC NAIL COMPLICATIONS.

THE CONTRACT WITH THE OVERLAND RAILROAD
TO BF REsCINDED-THE NEW AGREEMENT WITH
THE PANAM, RAILROAD NOT RXECUTED.
In circular issued early in January President
Babcock, of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
informed ITS stockholders that d" the next step TO
insure prosperous future to the company Is the
modification of the contract with the Panama
Railroad. but efforts to that end have not as yet
been successful" A modified contract, the result
of repeated conferences between committees OF the
two companies, was ratified on last Tuesday by the
directors of the Pacific Mail Company, and on FIJI
day by those Of the Panama Railroad Company
The agreement had not been signed on
Saturday by the executive officers of the
steamship company. II is understood that
President Babcock declined to execute the amended
contract. on the ground that the company wonld
not be able TO fulfil the obligations imposed by IT,
The reason Of that inability said by HIM to be
the RECESSION of the contract between the company
and tine Union Pacific Railroad Company.
Late on FRIDAY Sidney Dillon, president OF the
Union Pacific sent to President Babcock n0tce ol
the dissolution of the contract between Inc l"o
COMPANIES. Under the terms of that agreement
sixty DAYS notice must be 1ycn OF the intention 10
terminate il. The threatened withdrawal OF the SUD
sdy paid 10 the steamship company hY TIE over
land road would deprive the former COM
p3uv of a large revenue and tend to pre-
vent the fulhimcnt OF lts new a3IeCiincnt
with the Panama Railroad Company. PRESIDENT
Babcock said ON saturday that he had becn served
with notice Of the RECESSION of the contract with the
I'uion Paciuc. The notice was dated Friday, but
did not reach him until saturday. No action III re-
gard to had been taken by hun or the directors OF
the cumpauV. I'm regard to the Panama contract
Mr. Babcock SAID that it had not been signed for
the reason that he had not had time 10 examine ls
provisions. He expressed 10 doubt that 1t would
ie executed finally. He said that there was no. con-
ncctlon between the fact that II mad not neen
completed and that of the notice received
from the Union Pacific Road. \ promi-
ncnt director of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company declared that the dissolution OF the
contract with tac overland road was a matter of
little consequence. cit Is difficult 10 say why the
notice was given he SAID, " but | attach 10 i'm
portance 10 it, Ii may have been done to aid stock
Speculation. 1t may have been with a view to IN
hueuce the next election of directors of this COM
pauv Whatever the purpose, believe the notice
will be withdrawn before the expiration OF the KY
dIys before the agreement would be annuled"
The contract between the Pacific Mail steamship
Company and the Union Pacific Railroad Company
wa, made near the close Of last year. The subsidy
received from the overland railroad has been re-
duced twice during the administration OF President
Clvdc The terms Of the new agreement were SAID
TO have been advantageous to the steamship COM
pauy on notice by which the former contract had
been terminated.

rArm TRANsII MITH - NoIsE.

John Baird. chlcf engineer, and Allan stirling
master mechanic of the Metropolitan Elevated
Road, have obtained patent for improvements IN
The construction Of locomotive chimncys which
they claim viii overcome the putting and roaring
incident to the escape Of smoke and steam The de
vices are an expansion chamber and an annular noz-
Elc placed iu the chimney, the effect Of which is TO
produce a regular no.seleSs omission of smoke
instead Of am intermittent and souorous one as at
present fnc steam from the cylinders instead OF
passing directly through uozzles is DISCHARGED into
chamber of ten tunes the capacity OF tho cylln-
Hers winch will allow the steam To expand IN vol
nme. and greatly reduce its pressure, SO that the
noise OF puiuC Will not he heard than ten feet
away. Mr. Baird claims that this appliance also gives
greater speed with saving of at least - per cent
i'm fuel. He also claims that by the application OF
an English patent the Kissing NOISE of the sudden
escape of steam from tho brake cjcCtOr when trans
are approaching a station viii be obylaicd. Ihls
Improvement consists of cylindrical chamber with
wire cratiugs each end the cylinder being filled
with small glass beads, about an eighth OF an men
IN diameter with hole IN the centre. The steam,
i'm passing around and through them, Is sub
divided into small parts as to utterly
destroy its power for producing noise.
Ii requires about 1000 beads for each cylinder,
and the company has already purchased about
500 900 of them 1t Is estimated that 1t Will re-
qure several millions 10 equip all the locomotives
in use on thc road These novel improvements have
been applied to three of the engines, and they Will
be put on all the engines as soon Js possible.
