-Ballou's Monthly Magazine for
December is indeed a capital number
for all the reading public. First
there are many illustrations. Then
comes the conclusion Of that popular
yarn called, "On Land and Sea; or,
California in the Years 1S43, "A aud
AS" by William II. Thomes. ION
Land and Sea" is finished in a salts
factory manner, the boys remaining
on shore at San Diego with pretended
cases OF smallpox, ready for new ad'
ventures at the proper time. There
is no magazine in the country that
gives so much reading matter oe a
varied order as Ballou's; aud the
cheapness is surprising, as it is only
s1.5O per year. Address, Thomes q

The truth is that the railroads Of this
country were never better managed than
at the present time or at least this remark will
apply to Indiana roads. Take, for instance, Man

roads running into Indianapolis which are under
bis supervision were never in better shape,
physically, than now. Road-beds and equip
pents are in almost perfect condition, and the

isgood and certainly indicates good manage
ment. Take the Indiana, Bloomington & West
ern. Wrecked and bankrupt, practically, when
G. E. Henderson took the general mango
ment, it is now one of the largestequipped
per mile roads in the West, with some
eight hundred miles of good track; and
tbs fact that the great improvement to the
property has been made out of the surplus earn
ings above operating expenses and fixed charges,
shows almost unparalleled good manage
ment. The Vandalia, with Col. Joseph
Hill at the head of affairs, backed by the prince
of railroad men, VIM. r. McKeen, has made
as rapid strides in the way of Improvement
to road bed and equipment as any road

there is the G., II. & d. system, which was
rapidly on the decline as railroad property and
seldom spoken of outside the towns it passed
celent track and doing fine business; and
to c. G. Waite, general manager, is
the remarkable change due. Go little further
from home: take the Chicago q Eastern Hi
nois with Horace Stevens directing the man
agement of its affairs From bankrupt, hardly
known it has come to be practically north
and south trunk line 1t is very easy for the
financial editor of the Chronicle to sit in his
easy chair and throw out such unjust slurs, but
impartial investigation will not sustain asser
tions of such a character. The fact is that it is
now the study of general managers to learn the
best they can do to advance the interests of the
companies they represent, and their chief aim Is
to cut down operating expense, increase earn
ings, and at the same time to maintain the ex-
cellent physical condition of the property.

Business over Indianapolis Roads.

The improvement in business from week to
week continues with majority of the roads,
yet in comparative statement given below, it
viii be seen that the week corresponding with
last week in 1883 there were 2368 more loaded
cars received and forwarded; in 1882, 3,S4S
more, and in 1881, 3,56S more loaded
cars 1t is believed, however, from
now on the comparative statement will be more
favorable, increasing inquiry for cars leading TO
the belief that September is to be by far the
best months business of the year. Up to the
present writing shipments of grain to the sea
boad still continues light; there is a fair
interior business and q considerable
quantity of grain going to Toledo. West
bound traffic is heavier than ever before in
August Whether this viii result in lighter
tonnage later in the season is an open question.
North and south roads are doing very satisfac
tory business Local traffic is again heavy both
in and outbound and through the fall months
promises to be highly satisfactory, and rates are
reasonably well maintained

and forwarded at this point in the week ending
