From the above statement it will be seen that

Chicago and East-Bound Traffic.

During the week ending June % the total

plete unraveling of the whole concern will satisfy
the stock and security holders This must pre-
cede a reconstruction of its finances, and the
sooner it is set about the earlier will the com
pany's affairs be placed upon an understandable
and more solid basis. 1t is seriously doubted
that the road, with its enormous fixed charges
and with the sharp competition for traffic which
it sustains can maintain Its credit. Great as
the road is. it is endeavoring to carry debt
larger than its traffic warrants, and it staggers

Freight TRAFFIC Over Indianapolis Lines.


Comparing the business Of the last week in
June, 1883, with that of the week ending June
%, 1884 it is shown that the indianapolis roads
this year handled gilmore loaded cars than in the
corresponding seven days in 1885, and for the
whole month, despite the complaining, business
has been heavier than in June last year The
past week there has been quite a sharp move
ment of grain eastward to interior points, while
there was no improvement in seaboard ship
ments. West bound the tonnage is light and
will be for month to come, as usual in July.
North and south roads are doing better, and
with the better maintenance of rates these
earnings are footing up more satisfac-
torily. Local traffic is hardly as heavy as it has
been for some weeks past This, however. is
usually the case in midsummer. The large
movement of empty cars is due to the fact that
line cars are being sent west for distribution in
large numbers. Below is given the number of
cars received and forwarded at this point in the
week ending June %, as compared with the pre-
ceding week:

How George W. Smalley Once
Changed Greeley's Copy.


A New York paper says: George W.
Smalley, London correspondent of the
Tribune, is a son-in-law of Wendell
Phillips. He graduated from Yale
College and won his journalistic spurs
by writing in baggage car report of
the battle of Antietam. In 1867,
while John Russell Young was out of
the city, Smalley was temporarily in
charge of the Tribune. Amos J, Cum
mings was night editor. Greely had
written an editorial article one night,
and having an engagement to lecture
before Father Matthew society, had
left the Office without reading his
proof-sheets. He asked Cummings to
go over the revise proof Amos did so,
John Robinson holding the manuscript.
Everything was all right, but when
Amos went upstairs to make up the
editorial page he found surprising
mark on the revised proof-sheet.
Greedy had referred to Symes' Hole !"
in his article, and Smalley. who had
never heard of "Symes' Hole" had
knocked out the word "Symes," and
marked in Holmes Hole" Amos went
down stairs and expostulated d with
him, but Yale College was not to be
enlightened by boy who had gained
education in printingotfice.
81 am managing editor here, and
am responsible" said Smalley, in a
freezing tone, cutting short all expla-
nations, and "Holmos' Hole" it
remained. Horace walked up to Amos
desk at p, M. on the follwing day,
saying in piping tone:
Did you read my revise last nj ght 2"
did" was the reply.
Well" said the great editor, throw
ing his hat on the floor, you, re a
damned blockhead.'
The night editor produced the proof
sheet, with the alteration in Smalley's
handwriting, and told his story.
Horace stood like one dazed.
We'll, Amos" he finally blurted, Il
want you to understand from this time
forward that I'll never allow any
damned sandy haired Yankee to alter
my editorials"
Sn.alley was quickly relieved, and
never again filled the managing
editors chair.

The late Judge Black was Shak-
sperian critic. Nothing grated on his
ear more harshly than misquotation.
During the last Constitutional Conven-
iion of Pennsylvania, of which he was
q member, the country delegates could
scarcely make a speech without drag.
ging in some poetical excerpt, which
they usually butchered, and the Judge,
who never knew whether he was in or
out of order, would interrupt them
with corrections, or go to the Clerks
desk to see that the lines were printed
right. One day there had been an
unusual number of misbaps of this
kind, and the Judge had secured leave
of absence to go home. just before
leaving he walked over to George w.
Biddle's seat and said:
Biddle, l am going away, and if,
in my absence, you allow any injustice
to be done to the memory of William
Shakespeare will hold you personally
responsible"

An Irish Blunder /.

A disconsolate looking doctor, on

Pat, "why didn't yees shoot the Oital-

Beasts Before the Law.


Atlantic Monthly: Beasts are often
condemned to be burned alive; and,
strangely enough, it was in the latter
part Of the seventeenth century, an age
Of comparative enlightenment, that this
cruel penalty was most frequently in
fiicted. Occasionally a merciful judge
adhered to the letter Of the law by sem
fencing the culprit to be slightly singed,
and then to be strangled before being
burned. Sometimes they were condemn
ed to be buried alive. Such was the fate
suffered by two pigs in 1856, ''on the
Vigil Of the Holy Virgin" at Openhoim
on the Rhine, for killing child. Ami
mails were even put to the rack in order
to extort confession. tits not to be sup
posed that the judge had the slightest
expectation that any confession would
be made; he wished simply to observe
all forms prescribed by the law, and to
set in motion the whole machinery Of
justice before pronouncing judgment.
"The question" which in such cases
would seem to be only a Wanton and
superfuous act Of cruelty, was neverthe-
less an important element in detefmin-
ing the final decision, since the death
sentence could be commuted into banish-
ment proyidedthe criminal had not con-
fessed under torture. The use Of the
rack was therefore a means Of escaping
the gallows. Appeals were sometimes
made to higher tribunals, and the judg-
ment Of the lower courts annulled or
modified. In one instance a SOW and a
she-ass were condemned to be hanged;
on appeal and after a new trial, they
were sentencedto be simply knocked on
the head. In another instance an ap-
peal led to the acquittal Of the accused.

Many SEQ no bright CLEAN in the future,
Which may be 50 w0ndrOusly fair.
For though heavy clouds cast their shadows
Ger even the sunniest way,
AS darkness must come before daylight,
And night pTecedes ever the day.
Yet the clouds that seem thickest and blackesl
May shower refreshing, bright rain,
And leave US more brave than before;
Turn the Edge-See the bright silver lining,
Of that cloud that win darken no more
