AFFAIRS OF TIE RAILWAYS.
A Healthy Volume Of Traffic.

The train records of the week endiEg May .
show that the movement of cars is rather above
the usual early May volume. being 27 larger
than in the week preceding. 366 larger than in
tho corresponding week of 1887, 1858 more than
in the corresponding week OF 1886, and 2l96
more than in the corresponding week Of 1885.
In making the above statements, however. It
should be stated that local business Is considera-
bly, in excess Of that of last year, aud that
through traffic shows falling of. Il viii be
noticed that in comparisons the through cast
and-west lines, most Of them, make an unfavcr-
able exhibit, and the shortage is all in through
business. Take the Panhandle lines. Their To-
cal business was never better while their shrou gh
traffic has not been 50 light in many
years. The same Is true OF the Vandalia The
Cincinnati, Hamilton & Indianapolis and the
Cincinnati, Indianapolis, st. Louis g. Chicago
show the handsomest movement for this season
Of the year. The last week something Of an in
crease Ia export business is shown, and the
shipments of live stock have increased some
what. but the shipmerts Of grain and
and interior New York are unusually
light There is some lumber going forward.
West-bound the tonnage is not as heavy as
thirty days ago; still It compares favorably with
that of the corresponding period last year. and
tent which they were at the corresponding time
1887. the volume of traffic would be much
heavier AS In the way of merchandise the
shipments are somewhat In excess OF those OF
last year. North-aud south roads are do
ing an excellent business, largely
local In character. The fact Is that
local business is seldom heavier at any season
of the year than at the present time. While
the movements Of coal and live stock cut less
important figure than In the fall and winter
months, the shipments of building material.
such as stone, brick and lumber, are unusually
large. Then agricultural implements such as
mowers reapers. threshers and engines,- form
an Important feature of business. 1t is believed
that the coming week Of this month will show
further improvement, and that by its close the
earnings will be well up to those of the cor
responding month in years past One favorable
feature is the steadinsss in rates; the roads
know what they take In belongs to them-ho
rebates to be deducted. Below is given the
number of cars received and forwarded at Indi-

Matters Coming to a Head.

A few days ago tho Journal mentioned that
the relations were greatly strained between the
Pennsylvania Company, the Jacksonville, Mad
ison & Indianapolis, and the Louisville Bridge
Company toward the Louisville, New Albany &
Chicago road. which uses the j., NJ. & L road
between New Albany and the bridge to cross
the river. and then the terminal facilities of the
Pennsylvania Company at Louisville. On Sat-
urday the Pennsylvania Company, the j.. NJ. q
/. and the Bridge company shut the Louisville.
New Albany e. Chicago out of Louisville and of
of the bridge and their tracks Late Saturday
evening the Louisville, New Albany & Chica-
go Railroad Company secured . temporary In
junction against their carrying out such a pur-
pose, and the court fixed upon May IA for the
case to come up on its merits. The complain
ants allege that the Louisville. New Albany 81
Chicago owe them $45, 900 for rental and show
no disposition to pay it, while they are given
equal facilities on the tracks Of the j.. NJ. & l.,
the bridge and terminal facilities at Louisville
with those of the Pennsylvania lines. The
trouble 10 really. it is stated, an outerowth Of
the rate war. The Pennsylvania people alege
that while competing for business for the same
points the L., N. A. e. c. is not maintaining
rates, abusing the mileage book privileges, etc. As
yet the L.. N. A. e. G. have been unable TO make
a satisfactory contract with the kentucky and
Indiana Bridge Company to get into Louisville,
but the turn matters have now taken will likely
hasten some arrangement

To tho Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal
There is no conflict in the statements concern
ing what occurred between Voorhees, and the
soldiers on the train during the war. there being
two engaeements instead of one. The one in
which the bell-rops figures was some time during
the year 1863 when . detachment Of soldiers
belonging to the Sixty-third Indiana Regiment
had been sent over TO Paris ILL.,. to quell riot

Greencastls the soldiers were making 1t SO hot
for him that he abandoned the train by jump
ing on after II had pulled out from the station.

the only thing that saved Daniel was the inter

That Reform school Master.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
There are so many wide statements in Mr..
Charlton's card in Saturdays Journal that I
shall have to correct a few Of them. Otto
Swisher was convicted as being an accessory in
. grand larceny case and was sentenced to one,
not two. years. On the Recommendation of the
judge and prosecuting attorney, Governor Gray
sent him to the Reform School. The Judge told
me, In the courtroom after sentence had been
pronounced, that he believed him to be innocent
of criminal intent but, being in the company
he was. he could do nothing but give him the
lightest sentence He also said he
upon, sign a petition for his pardon As to my
visit there, was last at the school the 10th Of
February. According to papers an officer
showed to his parents. Otto left there'th 10th,
at ii o'clock az night. At the time of my visit
he told mo be had been promised his discharge
the LIST of March. Mr.. Drake. the clerk in the
office, told me he understood he had been prom
ised his discharge at that date. The last words
Otto said to me, on leaving him that day, was
to have his father and mother come after him in
. buggy the LIST day Of March. Now, does it
stand to reason that / should, think
ing he had only twenty-one days to
serve. induce him to run awayi He never
spoke OF such thing the day Of my visit. He
left was because the boy he worked with at
night was going TO report him in the morning
what for he did not say-and he was afraid of
being taken of of the gas house. if not punished.
AS to knowing of his whereabouts, told Mr..
c. q informant that did not know where he
was, aud do not now, and never did since be
left this city. His parents tell me they never
heard from him but once. The superintendent
of that institution. who. by the way. perhaps /
should have said before, / have never heard .
