Another Relic Disappearing.

Contractor Reuter- yesterday commenced
tearing down the old Madison Sc Indianapolis
round house. on Merrill street This building
was erected in 1849, under the John Brough ad-
ministration of the road, and when completed
railroad men came from distance to see it, as it
was considered one of the largest and best build
ings of this character in the West In 1856
when the Jeffersonvtlle, Madison e. indianapolis
people made traffic agreement with the Madi-
son & Indianapolis road to run the trains of the
j., NJ & i. into Indianapolis, over the
III. /. road from Columbus, Ind,
question came up as to heating the round
house. The j.. d. & /. people claimed that 1t
belonged to the NJ. & ]. company to heat the
building, David Branhanl. superintendent Of
the NJ g. l. road, thought otherwise. and made
preparations to put in brick division wall
through the center of the round house, but the
j., M. & l. people gracefully backed down and
paid their proportion of the cost of heating the
building and thereafter acted very honorably in
the payment of any bills which Superintendent
Branham, who was very square man in his
dealings, presented.

DacIina of the PooIs.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, March 16--An officer of
the Pennsylvania railroad said, to-day, that
there is practically no observance of pool rates
on freight, either east or west bound. He de-
cares that all the lines are already acting indie
pendently, but there has been no considerable
cutting of rates. Most of the lines have nearly
as much business as they can conveniently
handle He further stated that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad will take determined stand
against entering any new pool

Not an Exceptional Legal Ruling.

The fact that the courts Of New York have de-
cided that the receivers of the West Shore road
may issue receivers certificates to double the
track or make any other needed improvements
and that said receivers certificates shall take
priority to the 6rst mortgage bonds has resulted
in considerable comment by the press, more
especially financial papers Yet case practi
caiiy OF the same character was before Judge Nc
Claim, of the United States District Court of
Indiana, in 1856, and his ruling was exactly
similar with that OF the courts Of
New York. The case was that of
the Cincinnati, Richmond e Chicago
road The Chicago and the Richmond ends of
the road were built and in operation, and Judge
McClain ruled that the so-called construction
company could build the needed link 60 connect
she two roads, and the claims for doing the work
should take providence over all other bonded
debt or claims existing against the portions of
the road already built.

Temper Their Action with Humaneness.
One of the most important things for rail-
road management to do is to secure the confidence
of its entire force of employees. to make them
feel that whenever there Is reduction
Of force, or reduction in wages, such
reductions are necessary for the we'll
being of all parties interested This
matter has been forcibly illustrated within the
last thirty days on the vandala system, where
there has been general, although not sharp re-
duction in force and in wages. and there Is not
. an employe on the road who does not feel that
VIM. r. McKeen, the big hearted president and
Colonel Joseph Hill the humane superintendent.
deferred such action as long as possible, and
discharged as few men and made the re-
duction in wages as slight as justice
to themselves and those whose interests they
represent would justify. The humane man
ner they went about the work was much differ
ent from the way it is done On the Jay Gould
lines. To say to striking railway employees that
they may quit work, but must do nothing to
prevent other men from filling the vacant places,
is like telling man who goes into deep water
that he must not swim. A railway strike is no
stage combat with badders. Companies whose
employees are treated fairly are not troubled
with unruly servants; but when injustice to the
iaborer is alleged it is not unreasonable to as
sumo that the equities are not all upon one
side.

The Demand for Full Trade.

Despite the failure of Tariff Reform
bills in Congress, and the demand for
protection to home industry, the desire
for fuller and freer trade with foreign
nations continues to grow. tits noticed
that. Notwithstanding the very high
existing tariff, our manufacturing in
dustries are i'm bad way, and hundreds
of thousands of work-people are out OF
employment. We find the country
can produce vastly more goods than it
can consume. But we are shut out
from the market of the world because
our tariff makes the cost of production
SO high that our manufacturers are
handicapped in competition with pro-
ducers of goods i'm other nations. Raw
materials are taxed ty us, but are free
from impostsi in Europe. The question
for the American people is. will they
i'm the future as in the past produce for
fifty-six millions of people or for the
/ $50 900 900 that are supposed to COM
prise tile population of the whole globe?
It is clear that Americans will not be
alvays content with a financial policy
which restricts their trade with other
nations. No country can be perma-
nently or truly great that has mol for
eign commerce, ships of its own, and
colonies in distant regions.
WHAT WE SHALL DO.
With all the great nations extending
their commerce in every direction, it is
evident the United States viii not be
content to occupy its present ignoble
position. Our people are enterprising.
active, high-spirited, and their trading
propensities are strongly developed.
They will not be content to lag IN the
rear in the race for commercial suprern-
acy. So far, their energies have been
employed In opening up the marvellous
resources of their own Land. but they
would not be human If they did not
wish to stand well in the world beyond
their own shores; hence we may ex-
pect that the party Of the future will
favor the creation ofa merchant ma

What painter or sculptor will tax his

that the record of Wolff Pinkner'!
death gave the cause of it as choleratit
diarrhea, if there was any danger tina,
genuine cholera would come from it
Health Comm issioner Stevenson re
piled that there was no danger; that
tiere were many such cases in St
Louis every year. When Health Com
missioner Stevenson made that answer,
he knew, if doctors are trustworthy
that the disease of which Pinkner died
had been pronounced Asiatic cholera
by competent physicians. He knew
that there was much alarm among
those CT his profession who were cog
infant Of the affair. He knew that by
his own direction DIR. Dorsett was at
that moment taking every precaution
against the spread of the scourge by
burning Pickner's effects and thor
oughly fumigating the rooms where

liberately stated that there was no
danger and that st. Louis had many
such cases every season. If doctors
are to be believed. he knew that the
official record of the cause of Pickner's
death was false. But this little incon-
sistency on the part of Health Conn
missioner Stevenson is perfectly excus-
able. stDr." Stevenson is regular y
and the regular code of ethics" de-
mands such little experimenting with
the truth as is here displayed. If DR..
Mccoy or some other physician who
regarded the truth of more value than
''code of ethics" which has filled
grave yards and barred the progress OF
the medical practice for centuries, had
been questioned under similar circum-
stances he would probably have fol-
lowed Cleveland's advice and sttold
the truth"
