A Bic Run for Sow Enc1and Roads

The special tram of the New York World on
Sunday made the run from New York to Boston
al s. very crpditable speed. The train left the
Graad Central depot at 2:37 A. NJ, and reached
Boston at IA The trip was made by the New
York, New Haven & Hartford railroad to Hart
ford and thence by the New York & New En-
giand line; the distance by this route being 229
miles, which was covered in five hours and seven
minutes The New England line abounds in
curves, and is rot so favorable to fast time as
Tie Springfield route. The latter is five miles
longer but ths many long stretches Of straight
sr-ck would have fully made up this difference.
iI Is stated that the same rate of speed main
AIMED from New Haven to Hartford would have
"a. sue tram INTO Boston by the Springfield route
2t Tue same moment as 1t actually arrived by the
shorter line and with much less joltng to the
Passengers But by the Air line the distance is
only 2l3 miles, which would have been made
sshln i've hours at this rate of speed The
GRID train consisted Of only one car, but it is
soihething gained that train of only one car
las cut down the record so far.

Patient and Long Sutfering.

Under the above head appears in the Boston
Commercial Bulletin the points given below
regarding the t.. G. & st. L. railroad property.
That patient and long suffering committee
known as the Quigley committee of bondholders
of the Toledo, Cincinnati & ST. Louis railway
naturally feel rather at the reported refusal
of Judge Gresham to appoint the receiver whom
they prefer, viz: D. II. Conklin, now receiver of
the Illinois Midland. But as they are Slowly but
surely getting the property out Of the tolls that
have been thrown around it, they can afford to
keep up their courage.
All of the bondholders Of the road except Mr..
Corbin are now reported to have come into the
plan OF the Quigley committee, including even
those gentlemen who acted with Corbin in the
reorganization of the Southeastern.
Since the members of the Quigley committee
began to look sharply after the management of
the road, the main line of Toledo Cincinnati 81
St Louis has earned surplus over its operating
expenses.
Among the suits which the committee has yet
to fight is one for the possession of the Toledo
terminals another for the Frankfort and State
line railroad and third comprises the QUO
warranto proceedings at Toledo against the
bogus board of Corbin directors.

Trunk Line Differences Nearly Ended:

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 8.-The informa-
ton was given here yesterday, upon good au-
thority, that negotiations between the Pennsyl-
vania and New York Central railroad companies
with a view to settlement of the trunk line
difficulty, are progressing satisfactorily. For
the first time since these negotiations were be-
gun it is stated that they are in position where
they can be concluded within twenty-four hours,
but whether it will be done speedily as that,
even those who are parties to the matter cannot
say. The most serious obstacle to a settlement
of the trunk line difficulties has been the jeal-
ousies and antagonisms existing between the
Pennsylvania and New York Central companies
and these have been occasoned by invasions by
each upon the others territory An officer of
the Pennsylvania road states that these jealous
les and antagonisms cannot be appeased except
by withdrawal of each from the others terri
tory, and this means that the Vanderbilt inter
ests must abandon their Pennsylvania enter
prises, and that in return for this the Pennsyl-
vania will exert it's influence to subordinate the
West Shore TO the Vanderbilt control, while the
Pennsylvania will not be so aggressive in its
New England business as heretofore

A Proceeding of Doubtful Effectiveness.

In commenting upon the movement to ad-
vance freight rates on July 49, the New York
Tribune says: ''The decision Of the trunk line
managers to raise east bound rates to 20 cents
per 100 pounds from Chicago to New York: is
lightly regarded as a proceeding of doubtful
effectiveness. The difficulty has at all times
1een, not that managers could not be brought to
agree upon high rates, but that they would not
or could not enforce those rates after agreeing
upon them. There seems to be unusual reason
ut this time to anticipate that the same difficulty
will interfere with the efforts of the managers to
secure a practical advance in the east bound
rates until the season of navigation approaches
its end.
''FOr some weeks past the lake rates on grain
have been about the lowest ever known namely,
only one cent per bushel from Chicago to Buffalo
The theory of those who have advocated an adj
rance in rates by the railroads has been that the
-ateS by lake and canal would at once rise in
correspondence with any advance in the rates by
sau- That some advance would be attempted
vas to be expected, and accordingly week ago
the managers Of lake tranSportion raised the
Htes to i cent, and on Thursday as soon as
no advance III ran rates was announced the
RE by lake to Buffalo was raised to cents.
t1ut while this seems a considerable advance it
Is 10 De noticed that the managers do not at
Tempt 10 put rates anywhere those usually
charged In past years, nor do they endeavor to
get rs much for transportation by water as the
railroads have been getting even at the lowest
yates made during the recent contest"

While at play, Freddy Gall, youngest son of
Albert Gall, leaned against telegraph pole upon
which the sun had been shining and which was
so hot that one could not place the hand upon it.
The boy had some paper caps, such as are dis
charged by toy pistols, in his pocket. and the
heat of the post is thought to have gnited them.
Before the fire in his clothing could be smoth-

these caps are made of nitro -glycerine

mond that on the payment of $27 600 one of the

There Must Be square Deal This Time.

The agents of the seven Eastern roads in the
the indianapolis pool met yesterday afternoon at
Commissioner Doherty's Office, and unanimously
voted to restore rates on Monday, July Is, on
the basis of twenty cents per one hundred
pounds on grain from Chicago to New York,
twenty-five cents on provisions, and all other
freights to the tariff established April 6, and
each agent promised to strictly live up to the
tariff rates without any grumbling or ifs or ands.
Ihls is certainly very manly action on their part;
but right in the face of their action we receive a
circular from the office of Z. G.. Moore, joint
agent of the Chicago east bound traffic in which
rules are laid down which are much more
lenient than those of the indianapolis
association, and which, as usual,
gives the Chicago shippers advantages over the
indianapolis shippers. Under the rulings of the
Chicago association. All property consigned
from the West direct to point in the East
previous to July -, 1885, and upon which ship
ping directions have not been changed, will go
Wavbllls to bear notation: In transit prior to
July IL, 1885" All grain bought on the Board of
Trade, and ordered over to Eastern lines before
July Is, 1888, will go forward at rates in effect
previous to that date providing car numbers are
furnished to shippers prior to July -; wavbills
to bear notation: in transit before July 13
1885" All elevator and packing house orders
actually received on or previous to July II, will
take rates in effect on that date, provided prop
erty is loaded previous to July IA; waybills to
bear notation: Order in hand before July 13
1885" The Chicago roads, as in this case, al
ways leave a loop-hole through which rates are
liable to become demOrallzed. If there is to be a
general restoration rates, and all hands are in
earnest, there should be none of this Chicago
trickery to obtain advantages Neither ST
Louis, Peoria nor indianapolis roads or shippers
at these points will allow anything Of the kind
There has got to be square deal or the present
movement will be grand fizzle
