The Union Veteran Army.

The national convention of the Union Veteran
Army was held at Albany N. Y, on Thursday
and Friday of last week. A. S.. Helms, of
Worthington, Ind, was elected commanderin-
chief, ard succeeds Gen. George N. Tibbles of
Jersey City; j. o. Hardesty, editor of the Vet
Grams Review, has been appointed adjutant-gen-
eral. The Union Veteran Army is semi polit-
ical organization, in the interest of the Union
soldiers. Within the past year its increase in
membership has been very rapid, and the plant
ing of the headquarters in the West will tend to
increase the interest in the Western and Middle
States The new COMMANDMENTS chief was a
soldier during the war. and will devote his best
energies to the up building of the Union Veteran
Army.

The livestock war, in which the Missousi
Pacific has been playing hand, has been ended.
The Northwestern lines are said to be reciev

1t is not expected that the Lake Shore compa-

The Reading reconstruction trustees have
about completed their plan of reorganization.
and only few details remain to be decided
upon. 1t is understood that the new plan does
not differ materially from those already before
the public In its general outline it is the same,
but some changes have been made in the meth
cd of dealing with the junior securities. To-day
the trustees will have conference with the
managers, and will submit the plan to them.
The receivers will also be- called on for sugges-
tions, and it may be amended considerably be-

The Differential Rate Question.


Notwithstanding the reports that the Wander
bilt lines were determined to abolish the differ
entail rates accorded philadelphia and Balti-
more on east bound business, it is stated by
good authority that there is little probability of
that question being reopened. The rules of the
pool fix the rate from Chicago to New York as
the basis but to Philadelphia the rate is fixed at
two cents less and to Baltimore two cents less.
The New York lines want the same rate to all
three cities.
Three or four years ago the cry of zone rate
to the seaboard" was raised by some of the
Western lines. and commission was appointed
to inquire into the business of the diff
ferentials. Judge Cooley, E. B. Washburne
and Charles Francis Adams, jr., We're requested
to investigate the matter, and held sessions in
the three great seaboard cities. Commissioner
Fink accompanied the commission and the sub
ject was exhaustively discussed The result was
that the commission decided that Philadelphia
and Baltimore because they were nearer to
Chicago than New York, and because ocean
freights are lower in New York than in those
cities, were entitled to lower rates of freight.
This decision has been regarded ever SINCE not
outstanding frequent growls from the Lake
Shore, Michigan Central and other lines The
latest outbreak is considered as of no more i'm
portance than many that have preceded it, and
the fact that the objecting lines withdrew their
objections without making a firm stand is re-
garded as indicating that they did not expect
their protests to be needed.

Views of JaY Gould.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. lin an interview
with Globe Democrat reporter while he was in
this city, yesterday, inspecting his railroad
property Jay Gould stated that new Union
Depot would be commenced in this city and
completed as speedily as possible, as soon as it
was definitely determined by what route and in
what manner the Iron Mountain road can have
unobstructed access to the depot The new
depot is to cover the ground occupied by the
buildings now in use, and good deal more, and
is to be of the largest and finest in the coun-
try. Work will begin as municipal leg
islation settles the question about the Iron
Mountain road Regarding the Wabash road,
Mr. Gould said that while he is largely inter
ested in the stock and bonds of that company,
and approves the plan of reorganization, he will
not be member of the directory.
Touching the general outlook for railways the
gentleman said 81 shall have great confidence
in the ability Of the trunk-ine presidents to
hold rates up to paying basis, and feel that
the railway as we'll as the commercial interests
of the whole country are upon the threshold of
a season of great prosperity The Texas pool
he expects to work great benefit to the Texas
roads. He deprecated labor strikes on railroads,
and did not believe there would ever be any, if
both sides could fully realize the intimate rela-
tions they hold to each other. He expressed
strong desire that the employees on his road
should purchase homes for themselves along the
line, and would be very glad to know that every
employe of the Missouri Pacific was the owner
of some stock of the company. This would give
them all personal interest in its prosperity and
every man would do his best to increase it's earn
ing power
Mr.. Gould expressed decided opposition to
confederation of railroads, and said the PROPOSE
ton was absurd. What we want in this coun-
try" he said lis just what we have got-asha
competition but the competition should be CON
fined to soliciting business an agreed basis of
traffic tariffs He was also opposed to national
legislation for railroads, believing that the gov
eminent would utterly fail if it undertook to do
what competition and common business sense
alone can accomplish.

\ Decrease in Business Over indianapolis

Lines.
From the statement published below it will be
seen that total of q, $40 cars were eceved and
forwarded at this point last week, against q, O63
the corresponding week last year. There was
an increase this year of 9O6 loaded cars and 357
empty cars, making total increase in number
handled this year of 1858 cars. AS compared
with the movement of the week ending Oct 3,
1885, there was decrease last week of 1,O27
loaded cars. or in total movement of loaded and
empty decrease of / 084 cars. There are several
causes for this marked decrease in business in the
week ending Oct. 10 compared with the move
ment of the week ending Oct g. 1885. First, the
restoration of east bound rates, the effect of
which in decrease of traffic became quite notice
able tbe latter part of the week; second, the bulk
of the oats, wheat and old corn crop, which will
be shipped to the seaboard, has gone forward;
third, the prices OF lumber have gone off so
much In the Eastern market Western lumber
dealers have stopped shipping until the demand
improves Then the advance on west bound
rates on Monday last, toward the latter
part of the week, caused decided fall
ing off in west-bouDd through ship
nents This luli in business of course will be
but temporary. In fact, on Saturday there were
increased inquiries for cars to load at the ad
vanced rates, but naturally 1t will be little slow
until the new corn and hog crops begin to move.
North and south roads are doing heavier bust
ness than at any time for some months The
freights miscellaneous in character, and 80
per cent. of it carried at local rates, local bust
ness being heavy in all directions.
Below is given the number of cars received
and forwarded at this point in the week ending
at IL o'clock NJ, Oct 10. as compared with the
corresponding week last year:
