The Fight Waxing Hot.

The fight in the Georgia Legislature over the
railway commission is at fever heat The COM
mission is arbitrary, and the railroads seek to
modify its powers somewhat The members of
the commission complicate matters by entering
She field and leading the fighting against the
railroad lobby. They try to make the people of
he State believe that the monopolies and corpo-
nations are in grand conspiracy against the
farmers, laborers and business men of the Com
menwealth. The railroad orators on the other
hand. llken the despotic commission to the Rus
sian governmental "despotism tempered by
assassination" The railroads made no attempt
at eoncealng their determination to use heroic
treatment against the commission. The frank
ness of the methods used is illustrated by re-
cent passage at arms between Senator Falligant,
railroad man. and a commission advocate The
present agitation began with Senate iLvestiga-
ton, and there has been some curiosity to know
who paid the bills for the expert A senator
asked Fallieant who employed this expert and
ne replied: Il paid him, and Captain Raoul
furnished me the money"

Not a Bit of nc.

TO the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
By what authority the Journal of to-day says
that the meeting of the State Prohibitory Grand
Council is for the purpose of ratifying the nomi-
nation of the city Prohibition ticket, I cannot
imagine. There is not a word of truth in it.
The State Prohibitory Grand Council is COM
posed of representatives of all temperance organi-
cations in the State, and while devoted to the
cause of prohibition is not in any sense identified
with the Prohibition party, but is composed, for
the most part. of those who do not favor dis
tinct party movement except as last resort. Ii
it should attempt to indorse the local movement
in this city it will transgress its rules, and if
any local prohibitionist shall seek to get such an
Endorsement he will deserve the contempt of all
true prohibitionists. T. A. GOODWIN.

Miscellaneous Notes.

The Canada Pacific railroad has decided to call
for tenders for building bridge across the st.
Lawrence. to connect its system with the Ameri
can railroads at ST. Johns and Southeastern
including approaches, drawbridges, ETC. The
length of the bridge will be 5000 feet.
1t is not now probable that the proposed plan
for the settlement of the New York & New
England floating debt will go through. Can
vassing the question, it is found that the di-
rectors. stockholders and creditors very well
satisfied with things as they are under Mr.
Clark's management The finance committee
must present some plan at the directors meeting
on the 10Th inst .
The Northern Pacific directors will compete the
work of constructing the Cascade branch which
they have been prosecuting. and they have ':the
available assets" wherewith to do the work. In
deed, the remaining uncompleted track is only
seventy five and one-haf miles, of which sixty
miles can be bnilt with the proceeds of the first
mortgage bonds thereon leaving only fifteen and
one-haf miles to be built out of the ample avail
able assets of the company.
Work has been commenced by the Union Pa
cifc Railroad Company replacing the narrow
gauge bridges of the Utah Northern with stand
rd-gauge bridges of the most substantial pat-
tern. This is to be done along the line from
Pocatillo to Garrison. From this the fact is
apparent that the Utah Northern is to be made
standard gauge between these points, and the
rumor is generally confirmed that the road will
be extended to Helena
The New York Sun says railroads have COM
peted successfully with the Erie canal, and have
carried eff all the increase in the tonnage Not
withstanding the State has ceased to charge tolls
and has imposed an annual tax of 800. 900 upon
the ax-payers to maintain the canals, the Erie
canal has failed to keep up its business 1t
holds on to portion of the lumber and grain,
but the rest has gone. and there seems to be no
probability that the canal will regain any part
of It.

Last Nights Fires.

Early last night the stables belonging to
Thomas Sinker, on Delaware street. just beyond
the Madison railroad track, caught FIRE by some
unknown means, and were considerably dam.

Shortly afterwards another fire occurred at a
shed near the end Of Kentucky avenue, beyond
the Belt railroad, involving trifing loss to the
owner.
The alarm sent in from Box SO. few moments
afterwards. was from the streetcar paint shops.
Before the engines reached the grounds the fire,

new trouble comes up with the trunk lines.
1t is now intimated that the Erie will demand a
larger per cent. in the trunk-line pool. Those
who know great deal about the railroad bust
ness and have been connected with several lines
for years say that King, of the Erie, will I'M
doubtedly take a firm stand, and will demand a
larger portion of the business than is expected.
This may surprise those who expect that King
will do as requested by Vanderbilt. who owns a
large interest in the Erie; but King Is not easily
