Miscellaneous Notes.

The semi annual meeting of the National As
ISOLATION of General Baggage Agents will be
held in Boston the third Wednesday in July.
Steel rails are reported selling at $50 per ton
for large lots-a price unprecedentedly low.
There seems to be no bottom to the market
All employees of the Jersey Central railroad,
working one-third time at PhillipSbdrg, Hamp-
ton and Elizabethport, since the last week in
April went to work on full time yesterday.
This week special train ran from Springfield
to New Haven, sixty three miles, in one hour
and twenty nine minutes, and had to slow up at
Enfield bridge, the tunnel, and at all stations.
1t seems settled that the Denver & Rio Grande
will pass its July dividend. Such course, it is
said will not necessarily put the road into bank
ruptcy, but it will cause friends of the property
to lose confidence in it, doubtless.
''There is great deal of anxiety on the street."
says the Stakeholder, ''as to Mr. Sages physical
condition. as in the event of anything happening
which would incapacitate him for business, the
result might be very disastrous to Mr.. Gould,
who is heavily interested with Mr. Sage in
number of enterprises
The coroner's jury investigating the cause of
the recent accident the Camden & Atlantic
road place the blame on the engineer Palmer
and Conductor Glenn, who did not observe or
obey his orders and the instructions and rules of
the company" They further found that the
orders, regulations and instructions to tranmen
on this road were ample, if properly obeyed and
President Vanderbilt, in an interview with
reporter of the New York Mail and Express, as
sures the anxious public that he is Sin excellent
health and spirits and that his properties are
'al right" AS to the depreciation of $50 900 900
in the securities of the Central, SIS, 600 900 in
Lake Shore. etc, why that is the work of
those 'mean fellows" and sneak thieves" the
bears. Mr.. Vanderbilt says he is in no way to
blame. He can protect his individual holdings,
and the ''other fellows must look out for them
selves.
1t is seven or eight years since dividend-paying
railroad securities have been marketed at the
figures current this week. The Boston journal,
however, takes hopeful view of the situation,
and says: at must be remembered that the ex
treme declines in the best railroad properties are
the result of panic and exhausted margins, and
forced sales and though the times are bad for
those who are forced to SELL the immense recu-
perative energy in the country will come into
play when the excitement of the extreme politi-
cal season has passed away, and values will i'm
prove again"

WABASH and missouri Pacific.

ST. Louis, June 27.-The rumors which have
circulated for some says past regarding the sew
erance of the Wabash railway from the Missouri
Pacific have taken definite shape and the an
nouncement is made that on July all heads of
departments of the Missouri Pacific whose iuris
diction has been extended over the Wabash will
retire from that railway, and the lines comprised
in that system be operated Independently of the
Gould system proper, under new set of officers.
The road, in the future win be operated by
much smaller force than now. The new officers
will probably be general agent, general man
ager, a superintendent of transportation, gem
eral freight agent, and general passenger
agent. The position of general agent is already
occupied by Col. j. f. How; the other head Off
GERS have not yet been determined on The gem
eral managership was offered to Col A. A. Tai
mage, but was declined Rumor places Col Thos.
Mcintosh and Mr. Chappell of the Chicago &
Alton, with it, but nothing definite is known.
The officers of the Wabash will be entirely sep
arated from those of the Missouri Pacific, both
here and elsewhere, and all agents of the former
will be instructed to compete with the latter the
same as with any other road.

For the benefit of those who may be suffering
with rheumatism or neuralgia, l give you the
following as my experience; Il have suffered
more or less with rheumatism for a number of
years, also general debility. For the last year
the trouble has constantly increased, so that for
month 1 could not dress myself, could not get
up from my chair without help. From my head
TO my feet every cord and muscle was stiff and
sore. During this time used various remedies,
all to no purpose, and continued to grow worse.
My attention was called to your Athlophoros;
procured bottle of our popular druggists, Jones
& Bryant; on the 22d day of January L com
menced to use it. l took five doses, then slept
easily till o'clock a. NJ. l got up and dressed
it had produced such an effect. l am getting to
be an old man (seventy two.) I don't suppose it
will make me a young mar but will help the
lamp of life to burn down calmly.

ST. Louis, June 27.-The Wabash Railroad
Company have entered into an agreement with
syndicate of capitalists, who are not yet
named by which the latter take off the hands of
the former, the Quincy, Missouri & Pacific Rail
road, extending from Quincy, Ills, to Trenton,
Mo-, with all attaching obligations The objec t
of the syndicate is said to be to operate the road
from Quincy to st. Joseph, Mo-, in opposition
to the Hannibal & ST. Joe To do this they will
construct new road from st. Joseph to near
point the Rock Island g. Pacific, use the track
of the latter to Trenton, and run thence over
their own line to Quincy. This route will be
only seven miles longer than the Hannibal s.

by four lengths, with Lookout second and Prins-
ton third. Time, 2:364.

most speed, and being the steadiest. She led
from the stand, with Lookout trailing up to the
back stretch on the second round. when he made
play for the lead. To the surprise of everybody
jasmine suddenly quit and both the other horses

But Forty-Seven Miles of the Eel River Road
To Be Built This Year.

The committee of Eastern capitalists who
have taken an interest in the indianapolis, Eel
River & Western road have been West, looked
the ground over, and express themselves as
pleased with the outlook. They have recon-
rnended to Chief Engineer Devore that he at
tempt this year to build only the forty-seven
miles of road between the crossing of the L., N.
A. s. G. road, two miles south of CIoverdale, and
the Green county line west where excellent coal is
reached. This will enable the company to place
this coal on the Chicago market the coming win
ter, and will, as well, be good thing for the L. ,
N. A & G. The grazing for seven
miles of this forty-seven is already in
progress, Mr.. Devore states, and he
now expects to let the contract to grade the
other forty next week. He says this committee
has promised to advance funds as needed to pay
for construction work, but under the present
condition of the money market and railroad in
terests, they do not favor pushing construction
work with too much vigor. Yet the committee
stated that few weeks later it might become
apparent that it would be best to push the road
this year, on to Indianapolis. Cross-ties for the
FIRST forty-seven miles of the road are now be-
ing cut, and negotiations are now pending for
the purchase of the steel rails.
