Freight Business.

The train records show the traffic over nearly
oil lines to be in of that of the correspond
ing week last year. In the total movement /, 1872
more cars were received and forwarded than in
the week ending Sept. is, and 451 more cars
than in the corresponding week, 1885, The
movement of loaded cars this year was about the
same as last year. tt will be noticed that 1872
fewer cars were handled last week than in the
corresponding week, 1885. while there were 45l
more loaded cars handled at this point last week
than in the preceding week. East-bound there
is healthy movement, and. so far as Indianap-
oils proper is concerned, it is carried at tariff
rates. If there is any shading of rates it is west
OF here or at the eastern termini. A large per
cent. of the astbound freight is for interior
points of New York and Ne England with only
sprnkling of export business. West-bou
business was never heavier. and the bills OF lad
ing show that rates are we'll maintained. 1t is
stated that leading merchants of the West and
Southwest are shipping over the Southern routes,
who have heretofore shipped largely via
Chicago. While this is in some measure
due to the excellent time the mid
land routes are making, the main tenance of west
hound rates has much TO do with she matter.
When Chicago roads knocking the bottom
out of rates Western and Southwestern mer-
chants will ship roundabout routes as the delay
is but two or three days With north and south
ROADS the increase In business Is the most
marked. The c., ST. L. s. P. Chicago division,
is doing double the business it was doing one
year ago. With the j., NJ g. l. the improve
ment is nearly as marked. The Big Four, as we'll.
is doing grandly, as the comparisons are now
made against the busy times with that road one
year ago. In local business the Improvement is
remarkable; at the city depots overtime is be-
ing made. and the greatest activity prevails.
Both In and out bound the tonnage is much
heavier than in the corresponding period last
year. Livestock traffic continues to be light,
whie the movement of coal is heavy beyond
parallel for September. Below is given the
point in the week ending Sept %, and also Of
the corresponding week. 1885. Both the move
ment of loaded and empty cars is shown 1t will
be noticed that last week an unusually large per
cent of the cars handled were empty:

How he filled his exalted functions, how
