The Freight Handlers Strike.

The strike of the freight handlers in
New York is still unsettled, and as it oc-
casions much inconvenience to the bust
ness world, is naturally attracting con-
siderable interest. Suits have already
been brought to compel the railroad
companies to carry out their contracts TO
deliver freight promptly, and from past
decisions on this subject it seems as if
the strikers have decided advantage.
According to the st. Louis Republican,
there was a strike several years ago on
the Erie Railroad similar to the one now
conducted by the freight handlers on the
Hudson River and New York Central
Road. The engineers struck for higher
wages and stopped work, causing freight
to accumulate in the depots of the road.
A merchant named BlackstOck brought
suit against the company for damages
caused by delay in forwarding his ship
ments. The company defended on
the ground that the trouble was
beyond their control, that no ef-
fort they could make would have
prevented it, and therefore they
ought not to be held responsible. The
Superior Court, however, held that the
fact did not constitute good excuse;
the case might be one of great hardship
to the company, but, being common
carriers, their duty to transport good
delivered to them without injurious
DELAY was imperative; they assumed all
risks arising from the conduct of theiI
agents and employees, strikes included:
the failure of the engineers to run their
trains was, in fact, a neglect for which
the company were responsible, and the
old principle of common law, by which
nothing excuses a public carrier but the
acts of God and the public enemy, still
prevails in New York.
AS our st. Louis contemporary con-
cludes, under this decision the freight
handlers strike does not release the New
York railroads from their obligation
they are responsible for all losses arising
from delays in delivering freight given
in their charge, and the New York mer.
chants who are suffering from the failure
to transport their goods have a remedy
in their own hands whenever they
choose to apply it.

GENERAL NOTES.

Charles E. Brown, of Salem, Mass, drop

Jonathan Brown, dropped dead while at

in each case.

In the fall he will make lecture tour in

Probably the most exhaustive test ever
given to the use of steam as a motor for
street railways has been that of the Paris
Tramwsy Company, which has tried twenty
one different systems, occupying five years
in the experiments. Not one succeeded,
and the company is now using horses. The
difficulty was mainly in the expense; for,
with the original cost of engines, the pay of
the driver and stoker, the fuel and mainte-
nance, and the many accidents, the CON-
panY found its experiments expensive. The
end came 10 a prohibition by the city au-
thoritits; but the company was hardly sorry
to be thus released from its persistent eff
forts

Miss McEvoy, of Brooklyn, n. Y, cele
brated the Fourth of July to her heart:
content. While her nephew. Mr.. Burke,
and herself were periodically intoxicated
the former bit her ear of, and then fell
from the roof of his residence, killing
himself Immediately. Soon after that
her rooms caught fire from some cause,
aud her furniture to the value of $500,
was burned. This all occurred in the
loyal town of Brooklyn, in the loyal
State of New York. Republican NJ. C.s
and Radical journals in the North. and
especially of New York, will please say
something more about "Bourbonism"
and Southern barbarity."

Baltimore aud Ohio Relief AssOcia-
fiOn

D.. w. T. Barnard, formerly OF Washing
ton, and now in charge of the hospi-
tai service of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, has just issued the
prospectus of two additional features
to be added TO the Baltimore and Ohio
Employees Relief Association which he iDau-
gurated two years ago under the auspices
OF President Garrett, and OF which he is the
manager. The association has already be-
come the foremost of all benevolent railway
organizations in America, and It's excellent
system has received much commentator
aud Endorsement, and several large railways
have already adopted 1t for their employees.
To the original programme which provides
life insurance, annuities, pecuniary re-
lief and medical treatment for
sick and disabled employees, all
at actual cost, schooling for employees chill
dren, and other minor PROVISIONS have now
been added, savings bank and build
ing feature. The association, as reorgan-
lied, has been incorporated by special act
OF the Maryland legislature, and the Balti-
more and Ohio Company, which originally
donated to 1t the sum Of one hundred thou
sand dollars, and which also pays annually
about thirty thousand dollars to the FUND,
for the expenses has guaranteed all the pro-
visions of the old and new features, thus
giving It the support and stability Of its
own standing and solvency. The plan of
the association is unique and entirely new,
at least, In this country, and under DIR,
Barnard's management it has become ex-
ceedingiy popular among the employees of
the company. many OF whom have Joined 1t
since NAV, 1880 Reports Just issued show
It has expended 1921, 75S 4S In payment of
benefits TO members and for professional
attendance upon them.
The Baltimore and Ohio Company makes
the announcement that the objects sought to
be attained by the savings bank and building
feature are the encouragement OF prudence,
economy and thrift by placing within the
roach of every employe of the RAILROAD
company upon the simplest and most ad-
vantageous terms compatible with proper
security all the benefits derivahle from the
safest and most liberal savings institution Of
the country-after eliminating from the
latter all that makes them oil ecttonable.
IL guarantees q fixed rate Of interest
of 4 per cent. on al deposits which
are to be loaned for building purposes at a
uniform rate of six per cent. everywhere on
its lines. The company also gives the SER
vice of its agents and officers free Of ex-
pense In collecting and disbursing, and of
its treasury In holding the funds OF the as
socistiop, and large concessions in freights
and transportation to its members desiring
to build. The management of the saving
hank. as of all other features OF the asso-
citation. is under the direction and control of
a Board of Directors chosen Jointly by the
company. aud by the m embers OF the asso-
citation. and all it's provisions are entirely
mutual and for the benefit of those belong

General Chalmers, "the hero of Fort
Pillow" is reported to have said, in an
interview, that he had decided to cut
loose from the Democratic party before
he was ousted from his seat in Congress.
He believes that Senator Lamar has been
the cause of most of his political trou-
bles. In his next canvass he expects to
receive the support of the Greenbackers,
many Republicans, and some Democrats.
If elected, he will not vote for the Dem
ocratic nominees for officers OF the
House, but on other questions he will
vote as he chooses.

Thus far during the current year the
work of railway construction has greatly
surpassed that of last year, when the
increase of mileage-between 5000 and
10000 miles-exceeded that of any pre-
vious year. Indeed, during the first five
months of the present year the increase
was more than double that of the cor
responding months of 1881. According
to statistics compiled by the RGilacay
Age, in thirty-six States and Territories,
on 100 roads no less than 3, 4S0 miles of
new railway were laid down during the
time mentioned.
