Hunting for Lost Cars.

All the Texas railroads have increased
the number of their travelling car agents
with view to once more getting hold
OF the rolling stock that other lines have
borrowed without the knowledge OF the
owners, for freight cars are going to be
freight cars as soon as the fall business be-
gins, and every car will have to be manned
and gunned as soon as it is empty in order
TO keep other lines from stealing it. In
years past there has been good deal OF
Dragging, and some downright lying, about
the immense crops in Texas, but the reali-
~ this year makes the biggest liar OF for
mer years take back seat and think OF re-
firing from the business. The grass has
grown as vigorously and luxuriantly as
the crops, and the result is world OF the
finest beeves the State has produced in
late years. Everybody will make money,
and for every car load hauled out OF the
State carload will be brought in, and
what there is 10 90 out is only half OF the
business the roads will have TO do. OF
course, there is going TO be a distressing
scarcity Of cars, but the roads are this
early putting forth efforts 10 do the best
they can.

RUMBLINGS OF THE RAIL.
THE LOUISVILLE g. NASHVILLE IS
NOT A PURCHASER.
1t Has Enough Lines at Present, and Is
Not Striving to Secure the East Ten
nessee, Virginia g. Georgia Miscel-
laneous Railroad Intelligence.

Forsome time the officials OF the Louisville
NASHVILLE road have been bothered no lit
tie by reports all over the country, lr-
porting to have come from reliable sources,
that the system had in contemplation the
purchase OF the East Tennessee, Virginia
q Georgia road, or was DESTROYS OF securing
control OF it. The management in Louis
vile has all along denied strongly that any
such deal was contemplated, but the
knowing ones" nodded their heads and
said that President Nortons visit to the
south had no other significance than the
purchase Of not only this system, but
divers others. Mr.. Norton, however, him
self sets all doubt aside on the subject, and
says: ave have not the slightest idea OF
buying the East Tennessee, Virginia x
Georgia system. The idea has never been
suggested to the board Of directors, and l
think am safe in saying that not one OF
the directors has ever dreamed of such a
thing. The idea is ridiculous"

About IN Go 10 the Wall.

II seems that the Southern Railway an d
Steamship association is about TO go to the
wall.
The Savannah (Gal NdS Of Saturday
says For a number Of years the head
quarters Of the Southern Railway and
Steamship association-or pool Office" as
il was more commonly known-was 10.
Gated ut Macon, Virgil Powers, general
commissioner. IL was recently removed
20 Atlanta. The dissolution OF the pool
has been talked OF from time TO time, and
the danger is still impending. The Louis
vile x Nashville railroad, one OF the larg-
est systems in the pool, has withdrawn,
and, in consequence, much smaller cleri-
cal force il needed. At the close OF bust
.sless Tuesday twenty employees received
notices OF dismissal. They came in the
shape Of a letter signed by Commissioner
TFlcott and read a. follows The agree
ment under which the Southern Railway
and Steamship association has been
working ends today, and the new assOcia-
ton, which begins tomorrow, includes
fewer members, and will require a smaller
force OF clerks. | cannot, therefore, avail
OF your services after today" The atti.
tude OF the Louisville x Nashville and the
Kansas City, Memphis & Birmingham
railroads Is exciting the attention OF the
railroad men Of the south just now. Meth
or Of the companies mentioned are mem
bcs Of the Southern Railway and Steam
ship association, and not being bound 10y
the rules can cut rates whenever they want
and TO whatever point they want. As II Il
