The signal service observer reports that the
maximum temperature ia Indianapolis yester-
day was ninety-twO degrees, Fahrenheit and
by general consentit ia given the common rank
of ''the hottest day of the Sc ason." Thermome-

and while the mercury up in the signal service

recovery were very favorable. The home of the

During the afternoon another man was found

There are no real diss agreements between the

peace, that they will soon come to an under

will be again disappointed.

TRUNK LINES ENTERTAINING.
Western Rosds Suffering from the Exac-
tinns of Their Eastern Conneetio

Western Re sds Suffering from the Exac-
lions of Their Eastern Connections.
The arbitrary rulings of the trunk lines to-
ward their western connections has been COM
mented on in the Journal several times of late,
and illustrations given where roads suffered in
earnings through the lack of fair dealing on the
part of the trunk lines At last New York
paper has dared TO express an opinion In the
matter. The New York Indicator says: "It Is an
understood fact that all of the Western railroads
are for the most part controlled by trunk lines.
Every order emanates from the city of New
York, and il these orders be disobeyed, the dar-
ing line cut of from the benefits arising from
q mutual interchange OF business with the pow
erful Eastern connections 1t is not infre-
Quent occurrence for managers and general
freight and passenger agents to be summoned to
this city to attend meetings. It happens an
average, once a month; and in case they do come
they are compelled TO leave the management of
their various roads In less experienced hands.
This must naturally cause some trouble, and GER
tainly occasions loss of time and money. Should
they refuse to obey the order and not be present
at the meeting, Mr. Fink, under the
agreement, casts their votes, aud
some complaint is made that he does
not always cast votes according to their
wishes. There Ia alternative left them
save TO neglect their business or let their roads
be misrepresented at New York meetings
Western railroad men who were violently OPP
tiOnal railroad law have changed in their opn-
ions wonderfully, and would now favor such leg
lslatiOn as being beneficial to the welfare and
interests of their roads,"

where. and whatever business they do is largely
taken from more direct lines, which
,t,tke impor tant towns. and the great tronhle is
THAT to secure business they must cut rates and
themselves stand tine brunt OF the cut. In
passenger traffic. whenever they ATTEMPT to
cnarpe full rates, their old issue of tickets held
by scaipers is thrown on the market. This cuts
heavily into the revenue from this source. Then
since the pool frightened its grip on Western
roads, aud shippers must pay full rates, of
eourse the shippers take the more direct routes.
leaving no business FOR roads of the character OF
the Lake Erie g. Western, except that which
friendly shippers may give them. Four months
of the year the road has good local business,
and the other eight months it is rather slim. 1t
would be hardly fair to charge the misfortune
of this road upon the management, which
doubtless has done tine best it could. but tt is
unfortunate that the road is so unfaVorably
located.

Guthrie, then president of the Louisville & Nash
Vile road, conceived that what Louisville needed
was a line tapping the rich coal, iron and timber
sections, not only of Kentucky hut Tennessee,
and that should eventually lead direct to the sea
c0ast. The line which his great business mind
thought out was that known to-day as the Jsi-
leo route. Various untOward Incidents prevent
ed a contamination of his plans, ana the great
hnaneier died long before railroad tie had been
LAID upon those portions OF the line that had
been p,rAndal
