Name of Road.
East Railroad Tinna.

At meeting of the Franklin Institute, held
in Philadelphia Wednesday night last w
Barnet LIE Van read an interesting paper on
modern railway facilities. IN which he said there
was considerable discussion as to which roads
run the fastest trains he had therefore collected
some statistics on that point He took up the
great English railroads. On the Manchester
Sheffield & Lincoln road are run tho greatest
number of short-distance trains in the world
There are sixteen trains daily between Man
chester and Warrington which go over the six
teen miles intervening in IS minutes, or at the
rate of SO $40 miles per hour On the Great
Western the celebrated 'Fyng Dutchman" is
run, which train makes the seventy seven miles
between Paddington and Swndon in l hour and
q minutes, at the rate of 80 l miles per
hour. This train has been running Just as it
does now for twenty years. The express be-
tween Grantham and Wakefield, on the Great
Northern road, travels the seventy miles in IS
minutes an average of SO 8 10 miles an
hour. The Scotch roads do not make such
fast time as the English, since the
grades are much heavier. The speed of German
roads is also not up to the English In this
country the fastest short distance run is made on
the Baltimore q Ohio between Baltimore and
Washington. The distance is forty miles, and is
made in forty five minutes, the speed averaging
SO $40 miles per hour. This is equal to the best
short run abroad. On the Bound Brook route
the twenty seven miles between Trenton juno
ton and Bound Brook is made in thirty one
minutes or at the rate of fifty miles per hour
The Pennsylvania railroad runs train between
Germantown junction and Jersey City at the
rate of 40 4lO miles per hour, though having no
less than ninety curves in that distance. But in
long distance runs the Pennsylvania stands first
in the world The Chicago limited travels 9l2
miles in twenty-six and one-half hours, includ
ing sixty six minutes in stops, an average of

have referred, and it seems pretty certain that
production must be greatly restricted, either by
mill stoppages or by the conversion Of some OF
the mills, in whole or in part to other uses.
The writer of the above must have
seen through blue glasses. Railroad build
ing in this country has by no means
come 10 a standstill. There is yet much new
territory to deveope, which can only be done by
building new roads. large proportion of the
railway mileage of the country is still supplied
with iron rails and the advantages that would
be derived from substituting for them steel rails
are so obvious that if anything like the low price
to which the latter have fallen is maintained an
extensive demand will probably spring up. A
correspondent of the New York Sun, in discuss
ing this subject, after estimating that the
new mileage during the next five years will
average at least 2, 900 miles per annum, says:
with old rails at $40 per ton no railroad can
afford to keep them in use while steel is sold at
less than $50 per ton. The saving in the cost
of maintenance and operation will pay the diff
ference of the cost between iron and steel rails
every six months 1t is, therefore, as sure as
anything in the future can be that at
least co. ono miles of steel rails will be required
in this country within the next five years, and
as these rails will probably average 90 tons per
mile, 5,400, 900 tons will be required. They are
more likely to average over than under 80 tons,
for the older and more prosperous railroads are
buying much heavier rails than sixty pounds per
yard and the tendency in all is to buy heavier
ones for their heavier traffic and transfer their
lighter or partly worn rails to their branch
lnesn

An Unfavoroble Exhibit.

The train records show still further falling
off in freight traffic. In the week ending Dec.
20, there were 1000 less loaded cars re-
ceived and forwarded at this point than in the
week ending Dec. 13, and 3, 703 less than in the
week ending Dec. 6. So sharpa decrease when
there is practically no obstacle like a snow block
ade or floods to contend with, is unparalleled,
To be sure, there have been few days of cold
weather, but this should not cause so marked a
falling off in the car movement It will be no

A Victory for the T., G. s. St T..

TOLEDO, Dec. 21.-The Toledo, Cincinnati g.
st. Louis narrowgauge railway has been carry
ing a large amount of freight out of st. Loms,
and it is understood the demand upon this road
has been beyond its capacity. This excited
belief on the part of the standard gauge lines
that are in the pool that the narrow-g gauge was
cutting rates, but proof to this effect could be
found. The narrow gauge road is not in the
pool, but claims to have complied with pool
rates. Parties connected with the pool have
examined the books of the narrow-gauge but
could find nothing wrong. Still they in
sisted that it must be cutting. and finally
the pool ordered that freights received at Toledo
by the Narrowgauge should not be forwarded
except at local rates, and the Michigan Central the
eastern connection of the narrow-gauge at this
point, refused to receive freight from that line
except at local rates. On Saturday the narrow
gauge company went before the United States
Court here and secured an order compelling the
Michigan Central to receive and forward freight
delivered by them on the same terms that freight
is received from other trunk lines out of ST.
Louis. The court held that Eastern roads re.
ceiving goods from Western lines cannot dlscrim
mate against any Western trunk line, and all
must be treated alike

mcrcial Advertiser says: Now the work of re-
building the railroad system is done, and the de-
mand naturally falls off, not so much because of
general depression in business as because of the
peculiar and temporary character of the circum-
stances that created the demand. Hereafter
steel rails will be needed only in quantities suf-
hcient to build new roads and to replace those
worn out in use. The stock on hand will be
gradually consumed, and the mills will be called
