Philadelphia ONLY n Way Statjon.

Philadelphia, like indianapolis, for few years
past, as the New York Sun states the case is
becoming only way station. The Sun says:
"a new rival is seeking access from the West to
New York, rival especially of the Pennsylvania
road, and all the other great trunk lines as we'll
for as all roads lead to Rome, so all great trunk
lines must lead to New York. 1t was thought
for long time that this was not necessary
truth, that Philadelphia was, should be, and
wonld continue TO be, the natural and actual ter
minus of the Pennsylvania road, and that Balt-
more would equally bear that relation TO the
Baltimore g. Ohio. Time and competition have
demonstrated the fallacy of that belief; apd, re-
mote as IT is from our design to CRATE upon the
possibilities Of either Baltimore or Philadelp ha,
1t must nevertheless be admitted that neither is
any longer terminus but only way station

ism it is interesting to compare our postal serv-
ice with theirs. Until within a few months the
schedule time on mail trains between San Fran
cisco and ChIcago-242 APO miles-was l23s hours,
little over twenty miles an hour: The time
has lately been somewhat reduced, but still the
course of post between the two cities remains
practically at nearly five days and five nights,
say twenty miles an hour. letter mailed at
San Francisco in the morning of Monday gets to
Chicago on Saturday, often too late for delivery.
Between Chicago and New York-9SO miles
competition has reduced the course of post to
twenty-four hours, nearly forty one miles an
hour But west of Chicago, though the trains
run for the most part through level prairies and
the lines have neither curves nor grades till they
reach the Rocky mountains the rate of speed is
reduced, as have seen, to less than half the
rate of the Eastern roads, and the mails are car
ried at less than twenty miles an hour.
