Ahc EAeIu anu SthM
A lengthy and well-writter article appears in
in the Boston Herald of Monday last, on the con-
struction and movement of railway trains The
writer says: "A big railway corporation is off,
cered like an army or government department.
and the duties of each department are as varied
as the duties of those departments which revolve
around the President of the United States First,
Is the financial department; second, construction
department.; third, operating department; fourth,
commercial department. fifth, legal department.
These i've departments are divided and subdl-
vided, the operating department. involving the
most work, as it furnishes the means for carrying
the business. Under this head comes the
superintendent of the various divisions assistant
superintendent train dispatcher, train master.
and allied to these are the passenger agent and
his assistants, and the freight department., with
its commercial travelling aud local freight agents,
the second and third named scattered over
various sections of the country. The competi-
ton between the freight agents of the trunk
lines is very keen, especially in seasons of cut
rates. The five departments named really
represent some twenty five distinct divisions OF
railway work, involving the exercise of intelli-
gence and the utmost care, and all directed by
the general traffic manager. The many details
which the railroad business has necessarily to
embrace render railroading the most compl-
Gated of industries. Financial, economic, COM
mercial. diplomatic, land. engineering. mechan-
lcal and other questions have to be treated. and
the difficult problems involved SO solved as to
best protect the interests of the shareholders.
Growing out of operating a railroad there are
also other agents than those enuncated, among
coal, purchasing, ship agents, etc, From the
simple pay clerk has arisen the treasurer, pay
master and assistants, cashiers and accountants,
auditors and conptrollers. In the department of
locomotives, simple mechanic who knew all
about his machine and fred her sometimes, as
we'll as ran her, has become master mechanic,
&aI zAA~ al
has become freight agent or ticket agent and
rates beginning at six cents per mile have now
decreased to two mills per ton per mile, and in
some cases less--and with all this has come the
"pool," competition and rate war, suggestive of
the survival Of the fittest," with man at the
head of 1t who speaks for forty railroad corpora
tons which have organized for ''the purpose of
establishing and maintaining uniform tariffs"

Western lines, and used here to disturb the reg
ular rates.
The Chicago Times says .As an instance of
the rieidity with which tariff is observed by the
Central Traffic Association roads, it may be men
toned that the 'Kankakee' line has just made a
contract at Racine, Wis, to haul to Philadelphia
nlarge number of wagons etc. The freight pays
local to Chicago and 35 cents per hundred pounds
Go Philadelphia cut of cents below tariff
The business goes over the Illinois Central to
Kankakee, and thence the Cincinnati, In
dianapolis, ST. Louis & Chicago and its counec-
tons.

eral Railroad Company, is authority for the state

Cor an carly Inauguration of work on the new
line. The bonds are about to be- issued and are
to be taken up by New York syndicate. II is
also reported that the Illinois Central and the
Beeine will exert large influence in the control
OF the road. ThA charter for a bridge across the
Mississippi has been secured. and the placing of
the bonds Is the last thing to be done before be-
ginning operations.
1t seems the highest folly for any indianapolis
east-bonnd line to cut rates. As the pool is es-
Nabished, the per cents are fixed and every two
months there is a settlement If any road has
carried more than its per cent. it pays over the
amount necessary to even up the per cents,
either by diversion of freights or in cash.
Therefore road gains in no point when it car
ries property below tariff. The agent who sees
that MS ROAD earns its per cent, and carries the
business az fuil tariff, Is the one who will be the
pest thought OF by his superior officials Earn

DESPERATE THIEVES,
Particulars of the Fight with the
 Mexicans near LOrdsburR.

A Duncan correspondent of the Clifton Clarion gives the following particulars of the encounter between ranchers and the Mexican thieves, who stole the horses from the San Pedro, as already mentioned m the EPITAPH:
 Messrs. Turneran Logan arrived here last Friday evening, having followed the trial of the four Mexicsns who had stolen five head of stock from Bob. Robertson, on the San Pedro river, near Benson. Their horses being rode down they made their business known to (. w. Jones who procured for them fresh mounts from Drew Wyndom. On Saturday evening between 5 and I o'clock the banditti were discovered and the boys taking circuit ous course got Tn ahead of the thieves on the Silver City road about a mile from Cottonwood Spring. The Mexicans dis covering them, turned out of the road and dismounted at the same time hay their arms, which consisted of a 50 cali bre rife, shot gun and six shooters, in their hands. The boys rode upt to them and Tom Turner demanded their sur render With an oath of defiance one of them jerked his six shooter, firing at Turner, whereupon, the battle opened and hotly contested one it was. The Mexicansfought with unusual desperation but luckily none of the boys got hurt Charley Jones was remarkably lucky, a bullet passing so near his face as to burn his cheek, Jones and Schriver are ranch. CTS on the Gila, and are deserving of much credit for their promp, assistance to Turner and Logan.
 Alter the fight, the affair was reported to Justice Lynch, of Precinct No. 8, Gran, County, N. M,, who summoned jury o inquest who went to the scene of action and after hearing the testimony rendered verdict according to the facts as above stated. The Mexican who made his es cape got off with the best horse of tn. bunch, racer, consequently could not bt caught. He was pursued to Lordsbur; and there his trail was lost but it is be
 lieved that he cannot make his escape.

OUR CUSTOM SHELTER.
An Enterprise Which Win Prove of
 s.reat Bens fit ts Tombstone

Quite number of miners are now al
 work around Tombstone, taking out ore | for shipment. One of the chef draw
 backs to the large increase of this branch
 of our local industries has been tie great
 cost of getting the ore to market, it hay
 ing to be sent to Socorro, Pueblo, or
 other works, at great distance. The
 consequence has been that, unless the ore
 was very h,gh grade, little, if anything,
 would be left to the shipper, by the time
 expenses were paid. Besides this, the
 time required, before returns could be re.
 ceived, has always heen q serious draw
 back to our chloriders, who are mostly
 poor men.
 In view of these facts, it is most en- couraging to know that custom shelter has been erected in Tombstone and will commence operations in few days. In so quiet and business.like manner has the work progressed, that very few Tn this city know anything about it. While Tucson has been talking and resolving about projected smelter," for several years, Tombstone has custom shelter, as an accomplished fact.
 An EPITAPH reporter yesterday visited the works, which are situated in gulch, a short distance to the left of the Charles ton road, about mile from town. G. w. Sulser, the superintendent, and F. A. Foster, the machinst, furnished some in teresting information in regard to the known as the "Hartsfeld, new patent, manufactured at Newport, Kentucky. It is water jacket and steel lined, very simple m construction and easily moved. The capacity is ten tons. Should the re- suit of the trial be encouraging, the ca pacity will be largely increased. The owning the plant is known as the Santa Barbara Mining and Smelling Company. They were shipping the shelter to Sonora, but, owing to the h. dian troubles in that state, decided to erect it here. Mir. Sulser says he feels much encouraged, at the hearty good will and support which he has met with, from the citizens of Tombstone. The Ground Hog Mining Company have pre- sented the smelter with five tons of ore, which is now on the ground and will probably be run through, as a starter, on Tuesday Water for the engine is ob- tained from the we'll of Mir. Beale, who has kindly allowed Mir. Sulser to use all he wants.
 l, is difficult fully to estimate the ben. eft which this enterprise will confer upon Tombstone, should it be successful It will mark the commencement of new .,a of mining prosperity for our city and l enable many of our worthy miners to gam an independence.

The force of this argument has been re. moved by modern invention-the "Lit- tie Joker" washing machine. This ma. chine is light, simple, cheap and durable. A child, or a weakly woman, can work it.

Hugh White, the smelter man, arrived in town yesterday. He expects to have his shelter running at Nogales by May Ist. Th,s shelter will not depend on custom ore, but chiefly on ore from a Sonora mine, belonging to Mir. White and some other gentlemen This mine, known as the Colorado, is situated about 50 miles from Janos station, on the So. nora railroad. It is quite remarkable property, having been first opened up by Mexicans in I8o6 and not worked since. The original owners sunk to a depth of 200 feet, ran about too feet of drifts and probably took out about 2,5oo tons of ore. The ledge is from six to eight feet wide, in soft limestone formation. The ore will assay, all through, S2s-abou, half gold and half silver-and 30 pei cent lead, In formation and character of ore the mine is very similar to the Eureka, in Nevada. There is enough ore in sight in the mine to run the No gales smelter for twelve months. Mir White, whose large experience has mad' him very conservative, calls this a goot prospect, but most people would term i bonanza. Two hundred mules are nov employed, hauling ore from this mine {, the railroad,
