Elegant Railroad Cars.

G. ". Jackson president of the Woodruff
Sleeping-car Company will arrive in the city
this morning, with new sleeping coach Just
turned out of the Wilmington del car works
He also brings west handsome parIor car.
These are to be run on the Chicago. st Louis &
Pittsburg railroad, between Louisville and Chi
cage. The sleeper is twelve-section car sixty
seven feet long and nine feet ten inches across
the sill. The parlor tar is about the same length
The car is built of yellow pine with mahogany
rosewood and birds-eye maple trimming the
panels of the sleeping berths being inlaid
with mother of pearl and various rare woods
combined in the most artistic designs The cur
tain-rods and chandeliers are of hammered
bronze. Both sleeperand parlor car are paneled
with mirrors of plate glass. The windows of
the parlor ear are four feet in length and sur
Inounted with heavy lam breQuins of the most
artistic pattern. Revolving chairs in Eastiake
style. upholstered with crimson velvet, extend
for its whole length. popularity of the sleep
ing berth is that when opened it will not close
automatically, as is usually the case, but must
ramain open until locked by the attendant This
renders it impossible for the passenger to be fas-
tened in should the'car turn over The weight
of this sleeper is about thirtyfve tons. and four
months were required for its construction. The
wheels are of steel the sleeper being supported
on six-wheel trucks and the parlor car on trucks
of four wheels, both being provided with the
French springs. such as are in use on the elevat-
ed railways The cost Of the sleeper is about
1900, and that of the parlor car 81, 600

There is evidently trouble brewing for the
trunk line pool III the matter of diverting
freights. Merchants are not taking kindly to
the arrangement There is too much delay in the
receipt of their goods often when they arc
shipped west over the long routes or broken
lines For instance an indianapolis merchant
recently ordered a bill of goods by the Mer-
chants Dispatch, which he badly needed. These
goods were shipped at New York, were diverted
to the West Shore road, transferred at Buffalo
to the Nickel plate, and were ten days coming
through; and even slower time is made over still
more indirect or broken lines. Such delays are
very trying to the Western merchants when
there are several fast freight lines over the di-

Business Prosperous When the Railroads
Are Busy.

A Boston G. Albany director, when asked the
other day how the suspension of the grain ex-
port affected his road, said it was great blow to
its traffic; it did not affect its net earnings very
much, for the grain traffic is of little profit but
it necessitated the Withdrawing of trains and the
discharge of help. The superintendent of a
large locomotive mandatory in Pennsylvania
says that the suspension of work in his shops is
not due to the completion of railroads nearly as
much as to the cessation of demand from the old
railroads which are cutting down expenses
When the railroad industry is put on short al
lowauce a great number of other industries are
affected, as well as the producers OF, the freight
whose withdrawal occasions the shortpess.
