AN ExoKB1rANr DEMAND.

A Tax Asked That Fast-feight Lines Can
not Afford to Pay.
T. A. Lewis western manager of the Erie fast
freight lines has received letter from the rail
road commissioners of Michigan, requesting
him to make up early practicable the earn
ings of their line cars for the year ending,
September 80, which have passed over Michl-
gan roads, and soon as he aRcertains the
amount said cars earned to remit q per cent. of
said earnings to the State Treasurer. OF course
the management OF the lines will refuse to re-
init per programme of the railroad commiss-
toner's of Michigan, and should the matter go
into litigation the line managements would
carry the case cases to the Supreme Court of
the United States. We're every Stale in the
Union to make such laws and en-
force tax of 2l2 per cent,
1t would be so burdensome that the lines would
need cease operations. For instance, a car
loaded with provisions in Kansas CITY for New
York, by the most direct line, which is through
States, namely, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, OHIO
Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New
York, and it would absorb 20 per cent. of the
gross earnings were each Stat to enforce the pay
ment of 2 q per cert. tax on the earnings of
each of the line cars We're the collection of
such tax enforced the line homogeneous would
be forced TO cease running their cars or advance
rates to cover the extra assessment their
earnings. In either case the shippers would not
be benefited. Both railroad companies and
shippers are now well satisfied with the rates at
which property Is carried, and every new move
that Legislatures make seems to disturb the
friendly relation between the two.

The Per Cents. Can Only Be Fixed Through
Arbitration.
1t is quite evident at the outset that the per
cents of passenger earnings In the Chicago and
Ohio river pool will never be fixed except by
arbitration, so at variance the views of
the respective arrangements to what their
per CENTS should be. For instance, the Cincinna-
II, Indianapolis. St Louis & Chicago people want
rs per cent. of the earnings of the Chicago and
Cincinnati roads, rs per cent. between Indian
apolis and Cincinnati, and 40 per cent. between
Chicago and Louisville. In the first case, there
would be bur % per cent. left the other lines be-
tween Chicago and Cincinnati; in the
-Ond case, the c., II, & l. would get but
i25 per cent. of the earnings between In
ldian3pOlis and Cincinnati. and in the third
item the other three Chicago and Louisville
lines would get but 60 per cent. II is stated
that the claims for per cents OF some of the
other roads were fully as unreasonable as would
be these per cents, hence according to the pool
Ing agreement the whole matter will be handed
over TO arhtratOrs.

The Electric Headlight a Success
Passenger Pool Troubles.
Questions To Be Considered at the Meeting
in Chicago-Michigan Taxing Fast
Freight Lines.
THE ELECTRIC HEADLIGHT.


a Highly Satisfactory Test of the Woolley
Headlight.
/ Perhaps there is nothing on which more vast
ed time and money has been expended In cleo
trio lighting than on a locomotive headlight.
Electricians occupying the most prominent posi-
tions their profession, rot only in TINS but IN
nearly all European countries, have expended
all their ingenuity, and yet failed to produce the
desired result. Recently it has become com
mon idea that the Earring, jolting and Oscllating
OF locomotive would absolutely preclude the
possibility of success in electric lights ever be-
coming of use to the railroads of any country.
The present headlight will not throw light
more than thirty yards, and when the speed or
American passenger trains is often fifty miles
an hour, the present mode of Illuminating the
track absolutely amounts to nothing. From
time to time the Journal has had accounts OF
tests that have been made in this city of the
WOOlley electric headlight. Last night test
was made that was successful beyond the ex-
pectations of the inventor. At 6:30 the locomo-
tive which the light was placed was taken
from the engine-huuse of the Belt road. Inc
first run TO North Indianapolis, where the
crossings are numerous and where the Jollng
was great. The inventor was so certain his light
would work that 1t was placed on the tender IN
stead OF the engine After leaving Evans's OIL
mill curve there is a straight track for mile,
with White river bridge just half mile from
the curve. No sooner had the engine rounded
the curved piece of track than the bridge was
seen as plainly as in a clear day. The engine
brought back to the Vandalia track,
aud there headed for the Union depot
The ordinary power of the largest head
lights made is thirty candles The power of the
Woolley light last night was nearly 1000 can
dies. The reflection of the light was noticeable
on the Union Depot and buildings in that vicin-
ity before the engine crossed White river bridge.
In fact, when the en- CINE was switched from the
BELT road to the Vandaa road, fully three
fOurths of mile distant. The manager proposes
TO make a trip this evening with a special train
of prominent railroad men and citizens Mana
ger MalOtt and Superintendent WhitcOmb, of the
Union Railway Company, have shown their
Willingness TO encourage such an enterprise by
loaning to the Electric Light Company an engine
for all tests desired.

The Best Length to Manufacture Rails Still
Question.
President Jones, of the Indianapolis steel-rail
mill thinks that his arrangements to secure
blooms at figure which will justify them in
starting the new mill will be made within few
lays He is quite anxious to commence, and
then run the mill steadily. He says they can
get plenty Of ORDERS and he is fully satisfied that
the mill will make The best rails of any min in
the country. The machinery ls constructed
that sixty foot in length rail can be manufac-
tured as conveniently as thirty foot rail. The
question of the most economical length
for rails is still unsettled. In con-
nectiOn with discussion of the
question Of long or short rails it is stated that
the first line opened in France-viz., that from
Saint Etienne to Andrezieu x-had rails only 3
feet L inches long and weighing As pounds,
This was in 1929 but in 1882, on the line from
Saint Ettenne TO Lyons, tho rail had increased
In length to about IA feet inches, and weighed
! 81 pounds Various increases were made mp to
S35 in France, when the length reached 10 feet
q inches. England came in with rail measur-
ing from 81 to "a feet, with weight OF ITO
pounds per 80 running inches. In Austria the
FRANCIS Joseph line far exceeded this length,
out was one-eighth less in weight. The great
objection In the lengthenng OF iron rails is that
