The Model Road of the West.


On Thursday last thirty-four years ago. the
Terre Haute & indianapolis road was opened for
business. and the career of the road from the
inception has been marked with success. This
is largely due to the able and honorable manage
ment of the property since its beginning The
finances of the road have been engineered by
Messrs. Peck, Rose and McKeen, and they also
looked more or less after the physical condition
of the property. Stockholders placed implicit
confidence In them at the respective time they
have been at the head of affairs and stock
semannual dividends The three arrangements
since the road was completed have set an
ample in managing it's affairs which other rail
road officials might we'll have copied. The
Terre Haute Gazette. of Saturday, says: "Mer
vim Prindle had the contract for laying the track
at of $500 per mile, with material furnished

On Saturday. March 4, 1852 VIM. Bough Uncle

the round house, in this city, and is universal
favorite, the first train over the track from

which were used then entirely The west end of
the road not built until some years after,
being completed in 1871. The r. Fl. & l. Com

the 'Vandalia line'"

Freight Business SLIGHTLY or

The train records show that there were re-
ssived and forwarded at indianapolis in the
week ending March 6, total of 20,3SS cars, of
which number 15 152 were loaded, against a total
pf 2I,l79, of which number 1920 were
loaded in the week ending Feb 81
and against a total of 1893 in the
corresponding week 1885. of which number 49,
795 we're loaded cars, which shows that ninety
sight less loaded cars were handled last week
Ehan in the preceding week. and 3,643 less than
In the corresponding week last year. The strik-
Ing decrease In the movement last week as com
pared with that of the corresponding week 1885
needs some explanation. In the week ending
March T. 1885, there was general demoraiza-
tion in rates. seemingly in all directions. the

wegl as to east and west roads, Even the roads
n the Chicago and Ohio River pool were paying

delayed in some cases four or Ave weeks in the
West and Northwest by snow blockadea Added
to this was heavy movement of live stock. and
there We're handled at Indianapolis more loaded
cars in that week than in any other week of the
year, with one exception. 1t will be noticed
that the volume of business last week
averages well with the preceding weeks for
some time past. and what decrease there was was
equally divided between the east and westroads.
East bound the grain movement reached about
the same tonnage as that of the preceding week,
while there was falling of In the shipments of

such as were in vogue year ago.
North and south reads are doing
fairly. Competition is sharper. there being
more through lines for Indianapolis roads to
compete with than formerly. The local traffic
of all lines is fully up to the usual volume of
early March. Local rates west are still more or
less demoralized, agents of Western lines not
evincing the determination to live up to tariff
rates that is shown by the agents of Eastern
roads, where competition is fully as sharp yet
rates in all directions better maintained than
at the corresponding period in 1885. Below is
given the number of cars received and forward
ed at this point in the week ending March 6. as
compared with the corresponding week in 1885:

Prospective Strikes.

Trouble is said to be brewing on the Union
Pacific over the question of employing Chinese
labor 1t will be remembered that the Union
Pacific railway corporation received petition
s4ast fall from thousands of its employees, asking
for the discharge of Chinese employees. on the
ground that they were ISL We labor" President
G. F. Adams jr.. by instruction of the directors,
'epiied that the Chinese employees numbering
90 or 400 out of 10000. were employed in the
:. anne way as all other labor, and were at liberty
to close their service at any time there was
no reason To call them slaves. All the employees
were under contracts voluntarily entered into.
As q national corporation, the directors do not
feel that it is within their province to. discrmi-
nate against persons of any nationality, color or
sect. The only question its directors and officers
have right to ask is whether the company's
employees are competent. faithful, economical
ard qualified to perform the duties for which
they contract and are paid" There are also ru-
mors of strike on the Erie railway in short
time. There is said to be much suffering among
the employees whose wages have been reduced
to this point by President King in his efforts to
>srn something over the running expenses of
the road.

The L, B. s. W. Reaching Out For Cleveland

Austin Corbin has come to the front as con-
nected with another railroad interest nearer
home than the Philadelphia 81 Reading. Last
week be was in Boston assisting in Strengthening
out the affairs of the Cleveland 81 Canton road.
At the meeting in Boston last week Mr.. Corbin
explained his views and purposes in reference to
the property. in which he has large interest,
holding with the other two members of the com
mittee some s. 900 shares of the preferred stock.
The gentlemen present were all influential aud
well-knowG holders of stock in the company, and
aearly all of them gave their proxies to the com
mittee. of which Mr.. Corbn is one. AS they
have heretofore supported Mr. Bood's manage
ment, this action is very significant. Mr. Cor
bins plan in brief contemplates the raising. by
sale of five per cent. first mortgage bonds of the
road at par 81 000 900. which is TO be applied to
changing the guage of the road to the standard
KuaSe, equipping the same. and connecting it by
proper traffic arrangements with the system of
railroads now under Mr.. Corbns control, and to
the adjustment of the claims OF certain equip
ment and terminal trusts which is necessary to
the economical management of the road.

Fighting the MattoOn Pool.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NATION, ILL.,, March Craig & Craig and
w. B. Leitch, attorneys have instituted quo
warranto proceedings in the Circuit Court of
Coles county on behalf of j. B. Benefel relator
against the Illinois Central the Indianapolis 6
st. Louis, and the Peoria, Decatur & Evansville
railway companies, charging them with unjust
discrimination against Nation shippers and
violating the statutes of the State in operating
pooling combination without a franchise for such
corporate action. These attorneys claim that
under the quoswarranto provisions of the statute
the managers of railways have no more
right to form combination and transact
business other than operating their lines of road
without special franchise to egallze the same
than they have to run a bank in connection with
their railway business without a charter and
that the courts will certainly hold TO this view
of the case Ample evidence of discrimination
has been collected to make case against the
companies before the Illinois Railway and Ware
house Commissioners and that body will soon
visit this city for the purpose of hearing the
complaints.
Great interest is manifested on the part of
Illinois shippers concerning the outcome of the
the fight against the pool at this city, and the
fight in the courts will be a bitter one.
