ENTENMON on THE FRANCHISE.

MIR GIADsTONE's AR6CMENT IL FAVOR OF TIE
BILL-oBJECTIONs BY CONSERVATIVES.
LONDON, Feb. 29-In proposing the bill for
the extension Of franchise night in the House OF
Commons Mr. Gladstone said Introduce separate fran
chee bills for England ireland and Scotland, with pros
pect OF carrying the English and Scotch bills aud leaving
the Irish bill TO its chances would be altogether n-
practicable The arguments in favor OF uniform bill
were unanswerabe Redistribution of the parliamentary
constituencies must follow the reform of the franchise
But IL the two questions embodied in the same bill IT
would prove fatal to both This measure, by greatly cx-
tending franchise and placing the votes OF boToushs
and counties upon equal footing would increase the on
power of the United Kin gdom by about 100000.
Tie Right Hon Sir John Hay, Liberll-ConServa-
tive, member for WgtOgn, objected to the
bill because It excluded redistribution. George
Anderson Liberal member for Glasgow, congratulate ed
the Government on introducing a really great reform
measure.
The Right Hon. Edward Gibson Conservative, mem bei
for Dublin University said that the bill had been intro
duced for the purpose Of dyertng the attention o
,he couutry from affairs abroad. The Conservative
would oppose the bill vigorously. Redistribution was OF
far greater Importance than the extension Of tie franchise

distribution had been carried Without this The extended
franchise would give the Nsnonasts ninety seats ID PSr

At this point in the debate an Adjournment was Noteo

TWO SUCCESSIVE VICTORIES.
indianapolis Again Defeats the Champion
Athletics, by Score Of to 5.

The indianapolis club won its second consecu-
tive game from the champion Athletics yester-
day afternoon-9 to being the score. McKeon
and keenan, did most creditable work for the
home club, and although the Athletics made
eleven base hits, one of them for three bases,
and one home run, McKeon's pitching was a
feature, he striking out men at opportune times
and preventing hits at times where they would
have been productive of undesirable results.
Stovey excelled at the bat, making home run
and a three-base hit Dorgan was badly off in
right field and Merrill had two errors at second.
Atkinson's pitching was very wild as his record
shows. Stifel was compelled to give place to
Foster behind the bat in the eighth inning,
owing to sore hands. Following is

Miscellaneous Notes.

Narrow-gauge roads in the South are growing
in disfavor.
The Switchmens Mutual Aid Association, of
Chicago now has about three hundred members.
The Lake Shore, Michigan Central and Can
ada Southern dividend meetings occur next
Thursday
Commencing this month, squad of soldiers
will escort the train on the Mexican Central
road, between theACity of Mexico and Ell Paso.
The Lake Erie & Western people, notwith-
standing their light earnings, are laying steel
rails and ballasting with gravel literally this
season.
The Indicator says: GAS side track for the
New York Central to use for storage of cars the
West Shore might possibly attract bid from
Mr.. Vanderbilt"
The central division of the Georgia Pacific is
now completed to Patton Mine, Ala, seventy
two miles from Columbus Miss. Work is
progressing upon the gap between this terminus
and Birmin CHAM.
The New York Commercial Advertiser says
nobody knows how soon New York Central will
appear as owner of controlling interest in the
West Shore. 1t may be that this time is much
nearer than many suppose
The recent resignation of John Scanlon has
caused the New York Central road to make
a complete change in the detective force,
placing the general care of all its business in the
hands of the Pinkerton agency. Scanlon has
been detective for the road for the past twenty
years. The new agency will have entire charge
of the railroad from New York to Buffalo
On the Western & Atlantic road, during the
months of July and August there will be cut
of 10 per cent. on all salaries Of $50 per month
and upwards The working hours in the shops

does not apply to those running on trains and
others who are not paid a regular monthly sal
ary but are paid for the time actually engaged
in work.
Speakino of the further break in railroad
stocks, the Boston Journal says: Under the Cir
eumstances tits as well to be cautious for a
while, and the fewer stocks person may be car
rying the better will he sleep at night At the
same time one believes that the general en-
barTassment is more than temporary; and the
great properties whose values have been declin-
ing will recover eventually with all other kinds
of business

Manager McCrea, of the lines owned by the
Pennsylvania Company west of Pittsburg the
P, TT. W. & G. excepted, says that round houses
or road are a useless institution; that the only
time locomotive should be idle is when in the
shops for repairs. He states that during the
four years he was manager of the Philadelphia
& New York division of the Pennsylvania sys-
tenn there was no round house at the Jersey City
terminus, and now there is only frame building,
with capacity to house three engines, and on no
road in this country are engines in better shape.
On the other hand, a majority of master me-
chanics express the opinion that engines need to
be rested housed and cared for as much as a
horse is to insure durability and good service.

Prosecuting the sunday Ball Players.

The much talked-of case against the Indanap-
oils Base Ball Club for Decorating the Sabbath
was called for trial before Judge Norton and a
jury, in the Criminal Court, yesterday forenoon.
The jury was not selected until nearly o'clock,
the prosecution exhausting its peremptory chal-
lenges and much objection being raised on both
Sides The examination of witnesses was en-
tered upon after the qualification of the jury,
and the case will probably be concluded either
to-day OF tomorrow, although great many
witnesses have been subpenaed. The prosecu-
ton is represented by Prosecutor Brown and
Deputy Robbins, and the defense by w. w.
Herod, Fred Winter and E. C. Buskirk The in
tmation in the News that the jury panel had
been made by prejudiced bailiffs had no founda-
ton in fact, and is certainly unjust to Judge
Norton and the court officials AS matter of
fact, among the first men called were Col. Sam
Merrill, j. c. Perry, w. D. Seaton and a score
of Others all of whom are church members, but
who were excused from serving only because
they admitted having expressed opinions on the
merits of the case.

Did the Roads Profit by the Reduction in
RatesS

Since the ffteen-cent-p r-hundred-p pound rate
from Chicago to New York took effect, the
Chicago roads have carried in round numbers
900, 600 tons of grain. So far as the total move
ment is concerned, it compares well this year
with that of any other; but when the shipments
of one of the six older roads are compared with
those itcarried in previous years. there is great
decrease. Recently-prepared statistics show
that the FIVE roads that carried l27, 908 tons in
1879 and 96O COZ in $780, carried 500 500 tons
this year, even including the junction
point shipments this year and not be-
fore, and the six roads that carried 1854
100 tons this year Including junction shipmentsl
carried 1,127 0I3 tons in 1881, $50, 1853 in 1882,
and 1,072, SOC in 1883, not including junction
shipments. The loss of earnings, of course is
the result of cutting, andlow traffic charges
generally. The amount of goods being moved
with the exception of iron, coal and railway ma
telials, is but little below that of any former
year, and will compare favorably with the aver
age tonnage movement of the past five years.
The loss has fallen heaviest upon the trunk
roads, which never seem 10 tire in repeating
former experiences in rate cutting.

ago the payments in July amounted to more than
$50, COG, 900, and since that date a large amount
of railway securities have been created, upon

defaults here and there will occur, but these,
taken together it is thought, will be moderate

A Worthy Thama.

Some sing the glories of the sky
No painters visions with it vie;
Some praise the beauty of the seas
All fair things have their devotees.
To homeIier theme my strains belong,
Yet worthy this of poets song
So sweet, so useful and so good!
Without peer it long has stood.
1t makes the teeth ike silver shine,
It makes the breath like balsamed pine.
1t cleans the gums, and people say,
1t scores fresh triumphs every day.
IT'S Sozodont,-a priceless boon
Yet cheap enough. Procure some soon;
Twill pay you double, take my word,
You'll bless the day its name you heard.
