West-Bound Tonnage.

While the west bound tonnage over Indianap-
oils lines. since March 1, has been heavier than
in any corresponding period in preceding years,
shipments over the trunk lines were smaller in
May than in any other year since 1880, and were
20 per cent less than in May. 1885. The Rail-
road Gazette shows: 1.-The shipments for the
Pntire FIVE months this year were per cent less
than last year. and were more than in 1885,
while the decrease from 1884 is IL per cent
The extraordinary shipments of 1882 were taken
at extremely low rates. But 1t is noticeable
that in the first two months of this year the
shipments were as large as last year;
La March they but per cent
less in April IL per cent less, while in
Nay they were 10 per cent. less, the decrease be-
ing 1922 tops in May. against H. 496 tons in the
previous four months. 1t is not so much that
the business of the year as whole is unsatis-
factory as that it has taken decidedly down
ward turn in the last two months. In every
rear shipments have been less in May than in
April, but not usually so much less as this year y
e Is gratifying to note that Indianapolis lines

The Jewett party are fairly ousted out of the
directory of the c., H. & D. road, and their last
hold upon any connection with the Erie system
is loosened. More than year ago the majority
of the stock was pooled and put into the hands
of Hugh j. Jewett, A. S. Winslow and Casimir
Werk as trustees, with irrevocable voting power,
the pool certifca ties being used on the market
This trusteeship was agreed upon for the pur-
pose of securing the Cincinnati connection be-
yond the reach of opposing interests just as the
Chicago & Atlantic was tied up. When Presi-
dent Jewett was displaced from the Erie, he
chose to regard this personal trust and was
sufficiently antagonistic to drive the latter to
union with the Cleveland. Columbus, Cincinnati
& Indianapolis for its Cincinnati and 1ndianapo-
lis connection. This system of management
not satisfactory to the holders of certificates,
however, and Albert Meter began buying the
sock for New York parties, with view TO
breaking the trusteeship Under his purchases
the price advanced from par to $50. H. S. Ives
81 Co. had all but 700 of the pooled shares, and
80 496 in all out of the total of 80, 900 shares.

William II. Thompson, administrator. Wash
ington c. G. Affirmed. Elliott, J.-Action by
an administrator for damages for the death of
his intestate. H. The widow was permitted to
testify, but as all that is material in her testi-
mony relates to matters subsequent to her hus-
bands death, or else to matters which were open
to the knowledge of all persons who knew the
parties, no error was committed. t. The
fact that there was pass found on
the body of the deceased issued to another,
and that the conductor testified that
he had accepted the pass but did not know the
man who presented it, do not overcome the pre-
sumption of honesty against fraud in the de-
ceased. The evidence shows that after the train
went through a bridge, into the creek, eight per-
sons were missing and the presumption was con-
sistent with good faith and honesty on the part
of the testator, that the one to whom the pass
was issued was one of the number missing, and
he might have intrusted his pass to the safe
keeping of the intestate. 1t is to be conceded
that the pass, being found on the body, created a
presumption of fraud; the presumption of good
faith is stronger (3 Matters of descrip-
