INDIANA FUNERAL DIRECTORS.
Fifth Annual Meeting of the State Associ-
ation-Reports of the Various Officers.

Yesterday morning. at Wrights Hall, the
nth annual meeting of the Funeral Directors
Association met with a fair attendance, which
was increased by late arrivals during the after
noon session. Vice-president Davis of Will
iamsburg, presided, and S. R. Lippincott, of
Richmond, was secretary. The latter officers
annual report was read showing a membership
at the close of last years meeting of lao, with
twelve honorary members. Two active mem
bers have died during the year, seven have gone
out of business, and three placed on the honorary
roll. The total membership now is l28. Dur
ing the afternoon session the question OF reia-
tionship to the National Burial Case Association
received considerable attention. The National
Burial Case Association controls the trade In
the United States and the funeral directors,
being annoyed greatly by men going into the
business and cutting prices, the
serious consideration. The funeral directors of
Chicago, through their organization, called the
attention of the National Burial Case Associa
ton to a Jobber who sold to one of the outside
directors whose prices were far below that of
the organization The burial case people cut
the jobber, nor could he buy at st. Louis. 1t was
represented to the Indiana association that to fur
Their fight this outside competition, local organiza-
tions should be formed. The question is still
pending.
Fifteen new members were elected, after
which routine business of minor interest to the
public was disposed of.
Among the communications was one protest
ing against the name of funeral director, and
urging return to the old one of undertaken.
No action was taken. A committee will prepare
suitable memorials respecting the deaths Of L.
l.. Kinsey member of the association, M. ii.
Bond treasurer of the national association, and
A. Fl. Ningler, editor of the Casket.

Of east-bound rates by New York roads, which
had been going on for several days. The de-
moralization in Chicago on Saturday was very
great, and there was no rate on either grain or
provisions. The New York Central and Penn
sy,vania are under these circumstances carrying
the bulk of the business. Week before last the
lines of these two roads took so per cent and
last week rs per cent. of through Eastern
freight AS nothing has been heard Of the Gen.
trail Traffic Association lately, it is felt in the
out accomplishing its mission. Adopting the
old idea that when things are bad they must get
better, it is not unlikely that a new move will
be made to restore rates. If the new arrange
ment is to De permanent, great many changes
viii have to take place. The New York Central
must arrange with the West Shore, and there
must be guarantee of honesty on the part of
all roads, and fixed rates. The Pennsylvania
will, probably, not join any pool which is likely
to be permanent one"

NAME OF ROAD.

In scanning over the reports of parties claim
ing damages for stock killed, it is surprising to
see how large per cent of the cattle, especial
ly, are fine blooded stock On one page is thirty
four claims for cattle killed. Eleven were full
blooded Jerseys three three fourths FLOODED
Jerseys, six Attorney, two Herefords and twelve
native cattle, and it is questionable, one of the
road officials says if there were a dozen head OF
Jerseys the whole length of their line, count
ing in those killed last year. The claims
for hogs killed, however. are more reasonable
although good many high-bred hogs are re-
ported probably 60 per cent But Indiana is s.
hog country, and has much fine stock Of this
character. Then it is noticeable that young fine
horses are much more apt to get on the track
and be killed than of the old, less valuable stock.
One superintendent says his policy is to settle
for stock killed as promptly and cheaply as pos
sible as the moment you go into a justice of
peace court with case the claimant will have
dozen witnesses, all of whom are ready TO swear
to any statement of the value of the animal
killed. They say they take this way to get even
with the railroads.

An Erroneous Feature of Raiiroading.


As near as can be ascertained the only obsta-
Gle 10 the settlement of the passenger rate wars
now in progress at New York and Chicago is
that certain roads take the grounds that Offering
superior facilities is cutting rates. This is
another of the beautiful principles which have
obtained despotic recognition in American rail
soad management-namely that road which
has any natural acquired advantages in COM
petition with others must be fined certain
amount just sufficient to offset the possessions of
those advantages. If its trains make better
slime or are safer, owing to double-track or care
full management, then it is bound in any COM
bination to allow rivals not SO we'll equipped to
charge lower rates, the object being apparently
10 level everything down to the meanest number
Of the combination. So il a road strikes the sea-
board at nearer point, owing to an angle in the
Eoastline, it is not allowed TO derive any advan-
Aage from that circumstance Such stand on
the part of any road is disgraceful to its general
passenger agent.
