THE TROUBLED BANKERS.
Hr. Harrison to Resign the Receivership Of
the Banking Company Other Matters.

The receivers of the late lamented banks state
that they are not yet prepared to give any in
formation regarding the condition of the affairs
placed in their hands, and no statement can be
expected from them for several days. William
Wallace, receiver Of Fletcher & Sharpe, thinks
that he viii be able to furnish detailed state
ment of the condition of the banks affairs the last
Of this week. He reports that the cash on hand
amounts to $41, 600 which is much less than has
been supposed Receiver Lamb has found
nothing to make the prospects for
the Harrison creditors any more favorable
The bills receivable will not amount to much
He is working diligently, and statement Of the
hssests and liabilities will probably be- ready for
The public on Friday or Saturday
1t understood that Mr.. J. @. S. Harrison has
agreed to resign the receivership Of the Indiana
Banking Company, and theprobability is that
be will be succeeded by George G. Duy, who is
familiar with the condition of affairs. AS there
5 undoubtedly demand for the removal of Mr.
Harrison, and Judge Taylor holds that receiver
san not be removed during the vacation of court,
The mode Of procedure indicated above has been
agreed upon. One of the gentlemen interested
10 the matter told a journal reporter last night
that the accounts of the Banking Company
would show that Mr.. Harrison should have IN
his possession about $50, 900 in cash-besides
notes and other assets--of this amount So, 900 is
said to be in the First National Bank at Shelby
vile and 81 $50 in the First National of this CITY
What disposition has been made of the re-
mainder is not known

4 GENTLEMAN WITH OPINIONS.
He Thinks that the Railroads Are Not Taxed
Sufficiently, and States Why.

DO you know why taxes are so high on per-
sons of moderate means and small holdings in
this city and townshipl' asked a gentleman of
the reporter, yesterday. Without waiting for an
answer, he continued: cts because the railroad
corporations escape with merely nominal tax.
According to the latest ruling the assessor is not
required to appraise their property at all They
put figures upon it themselves, and it usually
passes the State Board of Equalization at the
figures the railway officials put upon it.
III give you few items: The l., P. & G..
freight.house, on Alabama street and Virginia
avenue is a magnificent new building. 1t is
given in by the officials of that company for tax
alton at $500. Anybody who knows anything
knows it's worth more than five times that
amount The Panhandle machine shops are
given in at $4,000 Peter Reuters contract
price on the building was $4,000 The round
house is put down at the modest figure of &c.,
600. and the company returns all it's property
and improvements in the township at 500, 250.
The J., NJ & l. gives as the total valuation for
taxation of its property in this township the
ridiculous figure of &c. 800 The Decline, with
its fine and costly buildings and improvements
at Brlghtwood and here, gave in the beggarly to-
tai of So, 800 The State Board increased that
figure to $50 40, which is less than half enough
The G., l., St L. & G. is the greatest kicker in
the whole array of railroad corporations. They
put in their brick building, the Delaware street
depot which is square long, at So, 800, the
Northstreet depot at 81, 200 and their machine
shops and round house at So, 400 They give in
their entire property and improvements at
So 40. This the State Board of Equalization, in
adismal failure to raise it to what it should be-
made $40, $50. The l., D. S. (now part of the l.,
B. & W. puts in its freight depot at the West
street crossing at 5000. The round house over
the river is placed at Sc 000
Let the average tax payer take look
at this round-house and make a COM
parison with the way in which the figures
of valuation were placed against his holdings.
The Vandalia freight house is valued for pur-
poses of taxation at only So, $50 by the State
Board, and the engne-house is placed at the
same figure, SO, $50. The total appraisement in
the county Of this road is placed on property
valued at only S., 500
Tt is also great outrage that the Attorney
general should decide that all those properties
lying on OF adjacent to switches should be listed
as right of way It's ruling that takes more
than 100000 from our tax duplicate. Justice

corporations are made to pay what they fairly

san Hammering the Union Pacific.

The bears are still hammering the Union Pa
cifc, and their gossip is shown by official and
reliable reports to be chiefly false. Among other
things it is stated by the bear reports that the
company is trying to sell 10000 tons of steel
rails which cost $50 per ton, for $50 per ton The
company had just ], 8O6 tons of steel rails on
hand and out of use May 81, and can hardly sell
what it does not possess. 1t runs that the Aug
ust interest amounts to $780, 600, and various
expedients are being resorted to to raise the
money. The August interest is $3.50, 600, and
the treasurer has the money in hand 1t runs
that the June earnings show $400, 600 gross and
5000, 900 net loss from last year. The May earn
ings are not known yet and much less the June.
The Union Pacific, and in fact all the roads of
this country, seems to be at the mercy of those
bearish spectators and destroyers of credit

this country is commanding the attention of
some of the best civil engineers. F. Slataper,
chief engineer Of the Pennsylvania road, in a
recent interview said: The time will come, at
the present rate Of destruction Of our forests
when something will have to take the place Of
wood in the building Of railroads Some objec-
ed with iron sleepers is too solid; that you must
have some elasticity or spring. Nothing of the
kind is required where everything is perfect
The more solid you can make the road-bed and
the smoother you have the track, the easier your
cars win ride. and there will be less wear It is
reasonable You have sleigh on ice and it
glides along smoothly without q jar So it
would be If you had a perfectly smooth. solid

The Model Road-Red.

The Vandalia people last week placed in their
track the last steel rail needed to complete their
track between indianapolis and ST. Louis with
all steel rails weighing 60 pounds to the yard,
and every foot Of the track is well ballasted with
either gravel or stone ballast. This gives the
Vandalia, in connection with the Pennsylvania
lines, 1,070 miles of continuous steel rails, be-
tween st. Louis and New York, which is unques-
tionably one of the best road-beds in every re-
spect, for so long distance, to be found in this
or any other country. Col Hill, superintendent
of the Vandalia, will now turn his attention to
cutting down grades and Strengthening curves.

only the main building at $7O,s5O dispensing
with the workshops and chapel at least until
there is more money and there is a greater de-
mand for them.
Yesterday afternoon the commissioners, arch
