They Always "Deny."

A majority OF railroad officials have fallen
etc, which leak out, whether true or false, and
some railroad officials go so far that the useful
ness of the average railroad empoye is reckoned
according to lis ability to keep his mouth closed
about the railroads business. The last few
months several instances can be cited where
largo railroad operations were yelled in secrecy,
all of which is interesting. as showing that the
statements Of railroad officials should always be
regarded in Pickwickan sense without regard
to truth or fasity. Only last spring the late
William IT. Vanderbilt awaited himself of every
opportunity to give public utterance of oppos
ton to the Central West Shore consolidation.
AS late as May last he declared that he still
determined relentless warfare against a
black mailing rival; that his policy toward the West
Shore of ''exhaustion" While the pub
lie was being fed with this taffy by the great rail
road king, he was quietly bringing to q success
ful conclusion negotiations for peace which he
had begunsmonths before. Thesame is true re-
eardlng the movements of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, which is gathering in lines
which were competitors, in all directions In
| some respects this is unfortunate for railroad
men. Jay Gould is finding it no easy task to
make people believe that he is, for a fact, going
TO stop speculation in Wall street Day after
day comes the assurance that he is. The repeti-
ton is perhaps the best evidence that Mr. Gould
will continue in the market Assurance and re-
| assurance are made necessary by the popping up,
like Jack in box, of stories Of what Mr.. Gould
is going to do. To always deny seems to pc
the motto of most railroad men.

%The Downward Tendency Checked.

Only a few months ago the larger number Of
railroads reporting were showing a decrease in
earnings from month to month compared with
last year How great the change since then
may be seen by the fact that, of sixty
eight railroads reporting for November so far,
only four'have any decrease in earnings, while
they have great gain in the aggregate. fol-
lows 1885, sl5, La, $50; 1884, $l3, 933, 2O7; in
crease 81, $40 49, per cent, 8.9. Judging by
the incidental reports from various points, and
from what has been observed with Indianapolis
roads, December will probably show very en-
couraging increase over the corresponding
month of last year. Last year the decrease in
November of seventy-nine railroads reporting
compared with 1885, was 8aper cent, and not
to have made gain this year would have been
doing marvelously i'll. The change is really inn
portant and very encouraging, nevertheless, be-
cause it shows that the downward tendency has
been arrested very decidedly.

Car Builders TO Pool Their Business.

Prospects are excellent that the railroads will
soon have to pay for whatit is worth to build
them, as the leading car-building companies are
seriously considering the organization of pool
of their business. establishing a price for cars
which will enable them to make some small
margin above the actual cost of building car.
For three years past not one of the car works, it
is stated, has made one dollar, and those which
have recently taken contracts will necessarily
lose money in carrying them out, as IN the one
article of iron it costs SIS per car more to-day
than it did but thirty days ago; The price of lum
Der has, as WELL advanced 1925 per thousand
feet in that time. 1t is proposed
that the pooling agreement shall cover
the construction of freight cars. There are
a speciality of building freight cars. -Four are in
Indiana, and are located at indianapolis Terre
Haute, Michigan City and Jeffersonville. The
Importance Of the movement will be better un-
derstood when the demand for cars is known.
For three years past equipments have been
steadily deterioratng, and a road which three
years ago had 4 900 good cars now has but
=, 500, as 10 per cent. annual destruction of cars
will hardly cover the deterioration, and railroad
men admit that within the next three months
cars will be needed in sufficient numbers to set
all the car works in operation, and keep them
busy for two or three years to come in replac-
ing equipments which have become worn out in
that period. There is hardly road in the coun-
try that does not need Immediately 100 to 2 600
cars according to the length of the road. In ad-
dltlon to this, several thousand new cars will be
needed next year for roads now in process OF
construction, Or to be built in $780,

CAST IRON CUTLERY Some consumers will
not be surprised to learn that there are great
many cast iron knives and scissors In the mar
ket, and that cast iron razors are not unknown,
but it will surprise many to be told that, in
the opinion Of experts, the cast-iron tools are
in many respects as useful as those made of
steel Cast iron is not adapted TO tools which
work by blows, but manufacturers OF cast-iron
shears and scissors make no secret OF the ma
terial, and maintain that for ordinary work
they are just as good as those from cast steel.
When they are first ground the blades are as
keen a. those of steel, and they retain their
edges longer, but the surface chill of the iron
does not always extend TO depth that will
permit repeated grindings and sharpenings.
A writer ia Van.Nostrand's Engineering Mag
aziue states that his family has used pair of
cast iron scissors for three years, which have
been several times sharpened, and that he
has used q oast-iron razor which did excellent
work for months.-N. Y. Tribune.
