An Engineers Race for Life.

At Pantano Wednesday afternoon
the brakes of u fiat Cur loaded with
ties became looscned in some mex.
plicable manner and the car began to
move down the steep grade toward
Ciencga. A bystandcr jumped aboard
aud endeavorcd to tighten the breaks.
He. however, found them unmanagc-
able. Another tried and failed. A
regular brakeman then boarded the
car and quickly discovered that the
brakes were out of order. The car by
that time had increased its speed TO
fully twenty miles an hour, and to re-
main it would be almost sure death
when the first washout was reached
He therefore called to the other two
men on the car to jump and this they
did. Engineer Frank Shaw at this
time was sitting on his engine ut Pan
tano and attached to his locomotive

at once realized the terrible result ii

proceed unchecked on its way, for
score or more of laborers were engag-
ed far down deep gulch in the Cienega
pass strengthening the braces OF a
broken bridge that spanned it. They
would not be able to hear the approach
ing car and it would soon crash thro'
the weakened timbers and probably
crush many beneath its weight. AS
these thoughts flashed through his
mind he pulled wide open the throttle
valve and started in pursuit of the fast
receding car. 1t was a race tor lite,
and Shaw was soon laundering down
the track at sixty miles an hour, with
the carload of terrified Cinnamon be-
hind him. The fiat car ahead was in
creasing in speed at every turn of the
wheels and the grade there was very
steep. The locomotive, however, kept
gaining, and finally Shaw, placing the
lever in charge of his fireman, crawled
to the cow-catcher, and, taking the
heavy coupling-rod in his hand, stood
in that perilous position until the car
was reached. The chasm where. the
men were working came in sight, and
still the fugitive car was two hundred
yards away. He called to his fireman
to open wider the valve, and the labor
ing engine made a .lurch thai. showed
she had felt the increased volume OF
steam. They sped on with lightning
rapidity. The space between them
gradually lessened. Shaw stood with
the rod in one hand and the coupling
pin in the other. Finally the few feet
disappeared, and with a dexterity that
comes from practice and a cool brain
the coupling was made. The locomo'
tive was reversed and the train came
to standstill within fifty feet of the
bridge. This is the way one man saw
ed many lives.-[Tucson (Arizona)

graph. An unpainted farmhouse, big
and square, with long barns and sheds
in the rear, stood in such town.
1t was day in September as hot
and sultry as if it were midsummer
A Doctors sulky had driven up to the
gate, and the horse stood hitchcd at the
post.
In the yard, lying under one Of the
clms, was n boy of about thirteen. lie
was thin and pale; but there was a
bright, resolute look in his eyes, that
attracted one. Fred Appleton had
been in Warnham for couple oi
months. lie had been sent out ly his
uncle, that he might have the benefit
of country air, after long and pros
trating fever.
The lads eyes were fixed on the
open door which led into the hall.
Everything in the house was ominously
still. Out of doors the chickens were
"craking" about the yard and making
sudden runs at insects.
Now low groan from the room at
the left of the front door made Fred
start and grow pale His hands shut
themselves hard with an involuntary
motion. Not another sound was heard
for nearly an hour, and then steps
approached from within the house, and
the doctor came out on the piazza. He
was followed closely by a middle-aged
woman. Neither Of them appeared to
notice Fred, and both stopped at the
gate.
"Doctor, how is it?" asked Mrs.
Morris, in voice that was not steady.
"Bad very bad It's case where
cannot speak with hope. 1t was an
awful fall from that scatfold. Take
care of her as have said. It's all
that can be done. 1t is heartbreaking
to hear her call for her father"
The doctor was evidently in hurry.
He jumped into his carriage and rode
away, leaving Mrs. Morris standing
there. The woman looked after him a
moment with unseeing eyes, then she
wrung her hands violently, while she
exclaimed, in low voice: "If Charles
had not gone! If he only could be de-
tained."
Fred Appleton rose, came quietly
forward, and touched the woman's
arm.
SIS Clara going to die?' he asked.
Mrs. Morris Immediately made an
effort to control herself, and said:
Il am afraid so. 1t was bad fall.
Oh ! it is very hard -
"You just spoke about her father.
Cannot word be got to him before he
goes on board the steamer!" the boy
asked.
Mrs. Morris trembled. The girl
lying in the house was her niece and
about the same age as Fred. She was
the only child Of her brother, Charles
Roth, and dear as her own daughter to
her. The father had gone. He was
on his way to Boston, to embark on
board Cunard steamer for Europe.
He had remained in Warnham until
the last moment, and had just time to
reach the city, if nothing delayed him.

Progress of the Settlement of the
Trunk Line War.

New YORK, January 20.-The meeting of
trunk line railroads yesterday closed,
with the New York Central and the Pennsyl-
vania and Erie railroads committed to the
settlement The Grand Trunk and the Balti-
more and Ohio railroads were represented at
the meeting, but their representatives did
not have full power to act. The basis of ad-
justment was not made public, on account of
the delay in ratification by the Baltimore
and Ohio and the Grand Trunk roads. 1t is
understood, however, that the Pennsyl-
vania and the Baltimore and Ohio compa-
MES shall preserve their differential rates in
name, at least, and that the New York Central
and Erie companies shall have special adj
vantages on New England business. A
money pool will be formed to take effect at
once on East bound business. The New York
Central and Erie companies have contracted
for about all the West-bound business at low
rates until July LIST. The road will maintain
the schedule adopted last Monday until the
time contracts have expired, when the West
bound business will be made again profitable
and operated in the pool. No one outside OF
the parties in interest claim to know the pre-
else terms of agreement, but insiders give the
foregoing as general statement of facts. 1t
is believed by some that the real settlement
was made last week, and the meeting yester-
day was for a harmonious adjustment of
details

ST. LOUIS
Trade Quiet, but with "a Fair Business
Money Easy.

ST.. LOUIS, january 20-Auother quiet
week has prevailed in general business
circles. The volume of trade was somewhat
less than the preceding week, but still fair
business was done. Money is easy, and a
decided diminution in the demand was noted.
showing that at this particular time, which
Is between the seasons, there is less
activity in general trade. The banks
are boarding reserves, in expectation of a
heavy demand when the spring trade fairly
opens, and show no disposition to lower the
rate of interest. Regular customers are
ready to take all the money the banks care
to loan at per cent, and while this is the
case that rate will be maintained Cotton
has been firm all the week, with greatly re-
duced receipts and the general feeling bull
ish. Tobacco slow, with very little DISPOSE
ton to operate and prices poor. Flour quiet
until to-day, when the best grades stiffened
up and there was considerable demand, Wheat
has advanced for cash and near by months
and exhibited good deal of strength to-day,
but fell off slightly at the afternoon board
Corn has also been better, but the advance
was slight, and at the close the feeling was
weak. Provisions ruled very quiet and
weak until to-day, when prices advanced
throughout and there was much more ANNA
ton and better feeling. Speculation has
been slight, but a good consumptive bust
ness marked the week. Dry goods very
quiet, with light orders. Nearly all jobbers
have buyers in the East for new goods, but
general feeling has grown up during the
week that there will be no such boom in the
spring trade as there was last year, and the
laying in of great stocks is not probable
Prices are steady, and no change is looked
for very soon. Groceries are fairly active,
and show much more life than dry goods
Refined sugars declined &c, and coffee fell
down &c. Otherwise prices are unchanged.
Other lines of business are quiet, with
good average trade for the season.

NEW YORK.
Business NOT Active, but MODERATED
GOOd-Priees Generally Firm.

NEW YORK, January 20-Business has
not been SO active as last week, but mod
erately good for this season. and the year
may be said to have started well. Few
| changes are noted in the values of COM
modes, and prices generally firm. In
dry goods, though there are a good many
buyers in the market there is not much
doing, and there is some apprehension that
the weather which has prevailed NAV cur
tail transactions. All descriptions of grain
worked in unison with wheat, which is the
leading feature. There was steady decline
in prices up to Tuesday last, when the
market hardened, and there has been a
considerable advance since, based on the
impression that February wheat has been
considerably oversold. The advance in corn.
wheat and oats since 1881 has been Ic per
bushel. The lard and pork market has
been quite strong with some advance, but
showing weakness at the close. The volume
OF business in cotton is considerable with no
excessive changes, and the market closed
firm. The boot and shoe trade has been
light although perhaps a little more has
been done than in the first two weeks
of the year. Manufacturers, as yet,
are doing but little, not having COM
menced work on new orders. The leather
trade is generally very quiet; prices for
choice grades firm. Dealers in assorted stocks
report fair business. In the iron trade prices
are firm. In other branches of trade business
is good, and the general outlook is favorable.
Raw sugar is pretty much at a standstill,
there being a very limited inquiry, although
holders demand full prices; light dem and for
refined. No activity in coffee There is
much doubt as to the future, and large ope-
rators are holding aloof. The new crop is
estimated by experts at 100000 bags, and
there is large old stock on hand. Milder
grades are in fair distributive demand.
Hardware shows an advance in several lines
and it is long since the situation was so sat
isfaetory. The paper trade is dull and lit

Win an Active Demand.

CINCINNATI, o., January 20-Business the
past week has had no disturbing circum-
stances, and may be regarded as represent
ing normal situation. The weather has
been fairly pleasant, not interfering with
ordinary transactions of business, and there
has been nothing to increase the smallpox
scare. Indeed, the precautions taken by the
health authorities seem TO be having the
effect to keep the disease we'll in check, and
1t Ia giving no concern to the citizens In
breadstuffs there has been a steady and firm
market, the week closing with decided adj
vance In wheat and corn. The latter has
been depressed during the week by heavy
receipts, but shows indications of rallying
Oats have been quiet, but prices have been
well sustained with an advancing tendency.
There is an increased demand for rye, and
prices have advanced to 81 06 for No. 2.
Barley is quiet and unchanged. Whisky has
retained the advance made recently, hut
sales have been lighter than last week. Pork
and lard, as well as bulk meats and bacon,
have been stagnant until to day, when
decided firmnes ruled, with an advance in
prices. In general trade there has been sat
isfactory progress. Dry goods has had au
increased volume, and indications are good.
The same may be said of boots and shoes and
OF groceries. The situation in iron remains
unchanged. There has been an active de-
nland for money, but with an abundance of
loanable funds the rates have not been
changed from and per cent. There has
been strong demand Tor eastern exchange.
