CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-General Manager
Williams and General Freight Agent
Spriggs, of the Nickel Plate, were in Chi
cago yesterday and made arrangements
whereby that road will hereafter transport
freight in car lots from the stock yards.
The Nickel plate has not yet secured depot
facilities, and hence will receive nothing at
present, except freight in car loads, which
will be transferred at the stock yards to
the Nickel Plate, passing over the tracks
of the Illinois Central.

CHICAGO, Nov 26.-It was expected that
meeting of the Southwestern roads to adj
just passenger matters would be held on
Tuesday, but the meeting has been indef-
nitely postponed. The object of this meet
ing will be the consideration of methods
to prevent scalpers under-selling the regu-
lar rate to Kansas City and st. Louis. It
is estimated that the recent increase of
rates to Kansas City and ST. Louis will be
withdrawn.

Analysis of the May Debt Statement

Mr.. John Nj. Carson has prepared an analy SIS
OF the May debt statement, which we give below
a. matter Of general interest Mr.. Carson has
been for many years a Washington orrc>pond-
cnt, was recently chief of the New York Times
bureau, and is now clerk of the Ways and Means
Committee He has made financial matters a
special study, and his facts and conclusions are
alike trustworthy. He says
The reduction in the public debt for May was
SlO,3I5,44l. and for the eleven months ending
ednesday, Sl39. l23 600, which aggregate is
$50, D,OOOOO0 greater than for the CORE spending
eleven months of the preceding fiscal wear. II
Is now safe to predict that surplus revenue for
the current fiscal year, which will close with
this month"; will be at least Sl4S. 1000 600. and is
likely to reach 500 100000 The reduction for
May, 1891, exceeded that fol the last mouth By
about $500 900, yet the receipts for May, 1882
exceed those of May 1881. by over 81 900 900
The difference i'll the surplus of the two months
is owing to the fact that there was paid last
month for deficiency in pensions s., 900 600 and
it is likely that the remainder of the $4,000 900
voted last month for this purpose will be dis
bursed in June The regular appropriation for
the year for pensions was 50 900 900. The de-
ticency appropriation of last month swells the
amount for this purpose to $66 100000 for the
current year. For the coming year 800 900 900
are asked, but those officials of the Treasury
who are skilled in affairs relating to warrants
and appropriations are inc lined to the belief
that $40, ,0O0,0 900 will be required to satisfy the
demands of the pension list for the next year.
The merest-bearing debt shows a reduction
for the month Of over 1000, 900. Many per-
sons DO not seem to comprehend how the bond
cd debt can be reduced in one month $4,000 900
while the published statement of the Treasury
shows that the reduction for that month was
only SlO,OO0.000, and the writer of this analysis
has been asked TO explain this apparent tliscrep-
ancy, and TO also explain how it is that in some
months the bonded debt shows no reduction
whatever, while the Treasury statement an
nounces Il reduction of several million dollars.
one answer will cover both these questions.
The reduction announced monthly by the Secre-
tary of the Treasury is the difference. less cash
in the Treasury, between the aggregate of the
debt on the first day Of the present month and
that of the preceding month Thus it has fire.
quently happened that the Treasury announced
a reduction of several millions in the public debt
for given month when the figures in the col
umn of the interest-bearing debt showed no
difference as compared with the preceding
month"; No bonds maturing III such months,
none could be paid, and there fore the money de
voted to their payment remained in the Treas
ury. This surplus taken from the aggregate of
the debt for the preceding month shows what is
at the time a technical reduction, and this be
comes an actual reduction when the called bonds
mature.

From this point we marched on to Petersburg.
Before reaching that town we passed along in
side the rebel line of breastworks, where they
had held us in check for 50 long time. We
could also see in the distance our own line of
defences and the high signal tower we had built
near Hatcher Run. All of these things had
much interest for u.s. On M&y 3rd we marched
through Petersburg. On one Of the street Cor
ners we saw the familiar form of our beloved
old corps commander, General Warren, who
had been relieved of his command, as we thought
uniustIy, by the order of General sheridan at
the battle of Five Forks. His old command re-
ceiyed him with great enthusiasm as it marched
past where he was sitting upon his horse. We
then began the march from Petersburg to Rich
mond. Strange thoughts filled our minds as we
traVersed that great turnpike. We remember
ed how often the rebel army had passed that
way i'll the defence of their rcapitol. That night
we camped between the two cities. ON the fol-
lowing morning we marched to Manchester, Il
town directly across the river from Richmond
where we remained in camp for one day, m-
proving the time in visiting points of interest
in and around Richmond Wesaw many things
there which may be Of interest TO the readers of
the Journal and of them will speak IN my
next sketch. From Manchester our sick men

shows that she made the run last summer from
the meridian Of Greenwich in 81 degrees south
to New Zealand, over eight thousand miles, in
forty days All average of 204.4 miles per day.
In 1876 the ship Wasdale, leaving Liverpool in
July, made the voyage via the Cape of Good
Hope to san Francisco in one hundred and thir-
ty-SlX days, and thus demonstrated at least the
possibility that during the summer Of the
Northern Hemisphere navigators MAY lind the
route she took preferable to that around Cape

In deciding between the two routes from the
United States and Europe to California seamen
Will do well 10 consider whether the MacMilIan'S
time via Cape of Good Hope cannot be improy-
ed upon by taking different route across the
Pacific from that She took. The Macmillan
after leaving New Zealand stood toward the
Cook Islands, thence across the Equator and Il
little east of the Hawaii Islands. Had she kept
longer in the southern belt of powerful anti
trade winds, crossing the Equator in longitude
l20 degrees west (Or about 80 degrees east of
the mcdirian on which she did cross. which is
now the approved route, She would no doubt
have greatly shortened the passage. This new
route from North Atlantic ports to California
is yet to be more fully tired before it can be
recommended. But, though long in distance.
it is not improbable that it Will be found as
short in point of time as that by Cape Horn.
