year 90 locomotives and 4161 cars have
been added to the equipment, and 1881
cars now under contract. New and ex-
tensive grain elevators at Toledo and

THE rapid appreciation in rents in
Chicago is getting to be serious with
tenants. They find themselves con-
fronted with a double dilemma Of very
much higher prices for their present To-
cation, and an impossibility of doing
better by moving. while many who have
thrown up leases because Of the. rapac-
ity Of landlords, find themselves unable
to secure any new quarters whatever.
This condition Of affairs arises, accord
ing TO the real estate men, not from
the paucity of building operations dur
ing the past year, for very many large
and commodious buildings have erected,
but from the rush toward the city Of
new business firms. What is true Of
rents in the business section Of the city
Is also true Of residence rents, and the
first of May will witness such a scram-
BILE for houses as was never seen there
before. 1t now looks as though many
people would be entirely homeless,
although according to the building
statistics recently telegraphed. over five
thousand residences were erected dur
ing the year 1880 in the city of Chicago.

slant interruptions, characterized them

withdraw the remark. Mr.. O'Donnell
rose to a point of order, and pointed out
that Daniel O'Connell had used the
word '~'bellowingn to honorable men,
bers. Mr.. Playfair interrupted him,
stating that the point of order had been
decided. MI. O'Donnell would not be
put down, and declared that he would
speak on a new point Of order. Mr..
Playfair declared that he would NAM
Mr.. O'Donnell If he persisted in disre-
garding this warning. MI. O'Donnell
continued to speak, claiming that he
was exercising his rights. The utmost
confusion reigned in the house ; it was
difficult to hear Mr.. O'Donnell, owing
to hostile interruptions and cries of
"name,n NAME" Sir William Har-
court, during the disorder, was observed
to whisper to Mr.. P%layfair, who imme-
diately named Mr.. O'Donnell. The
ocene at this moment became threaten.

would have to be removed by the police
and the Irish members closed around to

test was, however, avoided, owing to
Mr.. Parnell's prudent advice. In obe-
dience to the request of the Irish leader
