George l. Seney, president OF the Metropolitan

not recollect having signed name TO any application
to Congress for such road, but OF my friends with
whom have just been talking thinks that may have

intention of engaging in the building Of
road acrOse Indian Territory-or any
where else for that matter. think that OF the
persons interested in the East Tennessee, Virginia
Georgia Road may have asked the authority Of Congress
to cross the Territory, hut the officers Of the company
are absent from the city aud therefore say pos
lively. Congress alone can give the right OF way
through Indian Territory, and I fancy that some
OF my friends may have asked for tue PRIV

when they might want to extend the line

an extension is contemplated at present But

By Balloon 10 the Pole.

Lieut.. Schwatka's offer to join Comd'r
Chcyne in balloon expedition to the North
Pole revives interest in scheme which ap-
pcnred so wild that most people supposed it
had been abandoned. Comd'r Cheyne, who
is still in Montreal, declares that he has
never relinquished his purpose to solve the
Polar problem by the use of balloons. Mono
of the objections urged against his enterprise
have shaken his confidence in its feasbleness.
Argument and rdiculo have been aimed at
the project, but his faith is undaunted, and if
he had the ship, the balloons and the supplies
for the expedition doubtless he would start
for the Arctic region without days nm
necessary delay. Wise critics have told him
that the extreme temperature of the frigid
zone will CONCEAL the oil required on the sur
face of his balloons TO make them impervious
to gas, but he makes no explanation to re-
move that objection However, both he and
Lieut.. Schwatka are trained engineers as well
as experienced navigators and they have un-
doubtedly given studious attention to every
detail of their scheme aud are satisfied that il
is practicable. The world would be willing
to have the attempt to reach tho north pole
abandoned, but explorers will not abandon it,
and Messrs. Cheyne and Schwatka may be
able to secure tho outfit required for their
aerial Arctic expedition.

PrOpeliing Horse Cars.
NeiU York sun.


1t is remarkable that the substitution of
endless wire cables for horses in drawing tho
street cars of this city should not have been
proposed long ago. Costing half as much, and
greatly preferable, because noater cleaner and
less troublesome, il is change that ought to
have commended itsolfpromptly to the cOnsid-
Grafton Of the horse railway companies espe-
cially since its pTacticablity was demon
strated long ago in San Francisco. Tho fear
seems to have been entertained that while
these wire cables might answer in a com.
paratiyely equable climate like that of San
Francisco, they would not do where the ex-
tremes Of temperature are very great, the the.
ory being that the expansion of wire cable
several miles long by tho heat of summer and
It's contraction by the cold of winter would
mako such difference in its total length as to
interfere seriously with its working. This
apprehension, however, has been proved
gronndless by the successful operation Of q
cable road in Chicago.

A LONE BABY,s VOYAGE.
Found snugIy c1ddIed i'm n Cradle Adrift
and Bobblng on the Ohio's Waves.

ana Bobbing Ola the Ohio's Waves.
Louisuiga cr.Jomndl.
The morning after the fearful deluge oc-
CURED ut the Cutoff man named John
Gla2er was rowing around in u light boat,
picking up what had floated from the homes
Of the unfortunates, when his attention was
attracted to a strange looking object bobbing
up and nown on the waves, some distance out,
and having the appearance of miniature
house. lmpcllcd more by sense of curiosity
than anything else he rOwcd across to head
the object OF, and to his astonishment discov-
cred that it was an old fashioned baby cradle
setting upright in the water. A few vigorous
strokes of the oar drew him alongside of the
hoater aud catching it by the edge he pulled
IL in toward the boat. Great as his surprise
had been, is was doubly SO when his eyes fell
upon the form of an infant, apparently several
weeks old, cuddled up among the blankets,
from which it had peeped out with eyes di-
lated by astonishment and fear. The little
stranger was carefully lifted from his uncer-
tain bed and placed in the skitl, the cradle
which had sheltered 1t being forgotten in tho
excitement and left to pursue its lonely jour
ncy toward the Father of Waters. The child
was comfortably dressed in swaddling clothes,
having a long flannel gown wrapped about his
little shape. 1t had evidently been born of
poor but respectable" parents, but as to who
they were or where they lived not the slightest
clew could be found. The baby was taken
home by Mr.. Glazer and comfortably provided
for, where it will be kept till its parents
claim it.
The supposition is that tho little stranger
floated down from this city, its home being
swept away by the breaking of the dam Mt the
Cutoff. 1t will be remembered that n cradle
containing an infant was seen to float past
Clay street early in the evening of the day
following, and, although efforts were made to
capture it, they proved fruitless. Meanwhile
the little Moses will remain at his new found
home until the proper owners claim him.
