The Wabash road is out with new
circular regulating and advaning the
pay of trainmen. By its provisions
freight conductors are to receive three
cents per mile, aud hrakemen two
cents per mile. In the case of con-
ductors, this plan will operate to ln-
crease their pay about thirty-fve cents
for each trip made.
The company will furnish an extra
brakeman where the engines are ten
wheelers, and it shall be the duty of
such extra brakeman to assist the fire.

special duty by the conductor at any
time.
By further provision of the sched,
ule the number of miles between Fort
Wayne and Toledo shall, with refer
ence to the payment of trainmen on TO-
cal freights, be considered l25 miles.
The distance from Fort Wayne to
Andrews and return is understood to
be 100 miles. The distance between
Andrews and Lafayette is understood
to be 1875 miles, and between Layfay-
ette and Tilton and return l25 miles.
The circular concludes with these
words: This advance is made with a
view of securing competent men, who
will take such interest in the welfare
of the company, as will secure prompt

Indictment of Ex-senator Kellogg

Indictment of Ex-senator Kellogg.
The indictment of ex Senator Kel-
logg yesterday for alleged corrupt
dealings with Brady in star route mat.
ters is not likely to surprise those con-
versant with the circumstances of the
case-unless the surprise be that a
Washington Grand Jury has at last
been found to act honestly on the i'm
portapt testimony of M. John A.
Walsh against person high in Office.
Mr. Walsh first testified before the
Grand Jury last summer, when the
jury found a bill against Brady and
Price, but cleared Kellogg. The same
evidence was laid before the next
Grand Jury, when all three of the &C.
cused escaped indictment. This testi
mony was published in the Herald at
that time, and when the public read il
there was good deal Of surprise and
no little suspecion at the action Of the
Grand Jury. In a subsequent letter
to Attorney General Brewster, printed
in the, Herald, Mr., Walsh charged
that the refusal Of the Grand Jury te
indict Brady and Kellogg was the re
suit of q conspiracy first to clear tht
ex-senator accused and second to dis
credit Wash as witness against tn,
star route jobbers then on trial.. II
support Of this charge several signif-
cant circumstance were cited by Walsh
notably the suspicious introduction
into the Grand Jury room of the repor
in"--the SpoffordsK Kellogg 'contestet

THE FIRE AT WESTMINSTER.

The disastrous fire of Monday night,
at Westminster, Carroll county, by which
s73, 900 worth of property was destroyed
and two lives lost, should be regarded as
a voice of warning, by all towns situated
as she was in point of fire extinguishing
apparatus, and more especially in point
of water supply. Westminster, like Elk
ton and many other country towns. was
without a supply of water, save that fur
nished by her wells. This, for the ordi-
nary uses of the inhabitants, was cuff
cient, but no provision had been made for
such an emergency as that of Monday
night, and when the steam fire engines
from Baltimore arrived, they were found
to be totally useless, because water, the
most important element in the subiuga-
tlon of a confagration, was not to be had.
The chief material used in the construc-
ton of buildings, outside of the cities, in
this State, is wood. and frequently whole
blocks, closely built, are erected of this
material. This is the case here, and was
also the condition of affairs at West
minister. What if the torch of the incen-
diary was applied to such block here :?
Our citizens, though willing and anxious
to exert themselves to any extent for the
salvation of the property, could only
stand idly by and gaze upon its destruc
ton. True, We have two engines, and
many able and willing hands to operate
them, but without an ample water sup
ply, they are useless. Shall we delay
this important matter until the coniia-
grafton is upon us, or as wise men,
promptly make all necessary preparations
to meet the fire tiend, when it comes

GEN. GRANT AND THE RIFLE
MATCH

Gen. Grants election rs president of
the National Rifle Association indicates
the appreciation Of the International
Rifle Match by public men of military
experience. It's influence in encouraging
rifle practice, not only among National
Guardsmen but also among private citi-
zens, is recognized as great benefit. 1t
is well known that Gen. Grant will not
consent to remain at the head of an or
ganization which fails to vigorously pros
ecute the work for which it was created
and his acceptance of the Office to which
he was elected may be taken as guar
anty that the work of preparing for the
contest at Wimbledon in July will not
lag. A month hence the completion for
positions on the team will take place at
Creedmoor, and the National Guardsmen
chosen will spend a week in team prac-
tice there in the middle of June, just be-
fore sailing for England. 1t is to be re
gretted that the team drill will be so
brief, but the members of the team will
have a powerful incentive to make their
preparation as thorough as possible, in
order that they may acquit themselves
at Wimbledon credtably to Gen. Grant
and to their country.

FISHING BY ELECTRICITY

The Albatross, the new steamer lust
completed for the deep-sea investigation
of the United States Fish Commission, is
equipped with a novel scarch-light which
may result in revolution in sea fisheries.
1t consists of three electric lights, each of
19-candle power, enclosed in hermeti-
cally sealed glass case. 1t is expected
that when this lantern is sunk in the
waters its glare will attract the fish,
which can then be taken by net drawn
from beneath it. The continuance is de-
signed solely for use in securing rare fish
from the bottom of the ocean for scien-
titic purposes, but why might it not be
employed in taking fish for food? The
charm of 4 brilliant light for fish is
well known, and fishing at night with
torches has been practiced from the
earliest times. If the large fish of the
ocean are affected by brilliant light
as the fish of rivers and small streams
are, the electric light may play an i'm
portant part in the great industry of
procurinfi fish from the sea for food
