Encouraged over the Outlook.

One of the officials of the Evansville g. Rich
mond railway enterprise under date of Sept 90,
writes as follows: ''The article in this mornings
Journal concerning Evansville, Richmond 81 East
ern. if it meant the Evansville & Richmond, is
misleading. AS matter of fact, it has received
great encouragement in all townships along the
line, in fact every township along the line
in Lawrence and Daviess counties has already
voted heavy subsidies to the e. I. s. G. railroad
which will be absorbed by the E. & r. railroad.
Elections have been ordered in three townships
in Decatur county with good prospects of favor
able result. Petitions in four townships in
Bartholomew county have been filed with very
good prospects in three townships and fighting
chance in the fourth township. ALL through to.
and at Richmond, the citizens show willingness
to aid the proposed line to a reasonable amount.
The reason [ write this to you, is because know
you would not publish as news that which is not
founded on facts and might be discouraging to
friends of the enterprise.

Old and New Railroad Schemes.

The Evansville. Seymour s. Bellefontaine
Railroad Company is showing some signs of life.
Wednesday the projectors held their annual
meeting in Evansville, and elected the following
directors: l. N. McBeth Kearney, Neb; John T.
Shields, Seymour, Ind; S. H. Huffman, Sey-
mour. Ind; G. B. Cole. Seymour, Inc; A. W.
Carpenter, Evansville, Ind; G. B. Eastin, Louis
vile, KY. H. G. Kmble. Brookvile, Ind: G.. r.
Halves, New York city: j. Fl. Zoos, Easton, O.
The projectors say that active negotiations are
now pending with parties of ample means for the
construction of this important line of railway,
and from information received it is the opinion
of those best posted that the company will meet
with success. The Evansville Journal announces
another deal as in prospect. The Airline run
ming from Louisville to Mt Vernon Ill. thence
by the Louisville 6 Nashville (St. Lonis divis-
ionl to ST. Louis, with branches to Evansville
and Rockport, will, in all probability, soon be
the property of the Mackey syndicate. Nogotia-
tons to that end are in progress The Journal
says thus the rape of the Airline repair shops
will be revenged. Evansville may occasionally
be "downed" but can not be kept down.

fastest trains been late in reaching Indianapolis,
and in no case have they missed connections for
many months at Cleveland going east, and at
St. Louis going west On most any part OF their
track it is safe to run a mile minute, aud it is
stated that seldom a day passes that the eighteen
miles between Greenwich and Wellington is not
covered by the express trains, 10 and IL, in
fifteen or sixteen minutes.
The Cleveland Leader says: "Mr. Shattuc. of
the o. & NJ. has given notice of withdrawal
from the Central Traffic Association, passenger
department., but this procedure, it is taken, does
not forebode any great trouble. Secession from
the association is a very common occurrence,
and it is held to be no great crime. In fact
notices OF withdrawal have been the rule rather
than the exception during the brief career OF
this organization. Whenever line wishes to
emphasize position it has assumed, or an utter
ance, it issues notice OF withdrawal, which
harms no one, but serves to attract attention to
itself"
In commenting on the situation with the
Cleveland 81 Canton road, the Boston Herald
says: AS to the suit which lie to determine the
lawfully elected directors. there ought to be a
decision before long. though probably not as
early as has been intimated In some quarters
The courts are too slow The Corbin party are
confident of winning the suit. but it will not do
so until the decision is reached. AS to the worth
OF the property, and the relation of the price OF
the stock to that value opinions would be found
to differ on those points. The best opinion would
the market price of its capital, and that it could
well stand a small mortgage to widen the road
gauge and furnish standard equipment.
There still some roads in the country that
insult their conductors by employing on their
trains what are known as train agents. but are
much of the same character of 'spotter" on
most roads, to such an extent do they annoy the
passenger conductors by their oficious manner.
The real duty of q train agent is to that each
passenger is provided with ticket and if on q
train without one to furnish ticket. But on
the G., FL. g. D. lines they exercise more author
ity sometimes collecting tickets it is stated, and
then disgrace the conductor by allowing him to
ask a passenger for his ticket and receive the
answer that the man ahead collected it. Then
again they often stop and start trains which
would seem to be the conductors duty, as surely
were a train to meet with accident from stop
ping in the way of train coming up behind or
the engineer, supposing the signal to be all right
start off at lively pace another trains time,
the conductor would be held responsible; the
train agent would cut small figure in the mat
ter. It is certainly annoying enough to have a
train agent on train, requiring passengers to
show their tickets two or three times, without
their transcending the duties of the position
which they are employed to fill.
