WHAT A STRIKE COSTS.
Great Deficit in the Net Earnings
OF the Burlington Road in the
Inst Six Months

Great Deficit in the Net Earnings
OF the Burlington Road in the
Last Six Months.
CHICAGO. Aug. ga decrease of
S5O6. 946 in the net earnings of the Bur
lingtOn company was recorded during
the month of June. and for the first six
months of 1888 the decrease in net earn
ings compared with the CORRESPONDING
period last year reaches the astounding
total of 81. FOL $40.
For the month of June gross earnings
decreased SlSG.S99, and operating ex-
penSeS increased 1920, 046. The total net
earnings for the month of June were
1854, 600 a little more than half enough
to pay the interest on the cOmpany'S
bonds for that month, and the total net
earnings for the first six months of
1888 were 1898, $50. The interest
charges of the Burlington company
are approximately s560,000 per
month, and for six months would
amount to about S3,000,000. In addition
to this liability the company has paid
since Jan. l 8 per cent dividends on
$50, 000 900 of stock, amounting to about
81, 400, 900. This item, together with the
fixed charges previously mentioned,
swells the actual disbursements proper
ly chargeable to earnings to the grand
total Of about S5,700.000. Against this
expenditure the company has a credit
of 81, 293, 430 net earnings for the first
half of 1888, leaving deficit of about
81, 400, GOO.
To put the matter plainly, the Bur-
lington company during the first half of
1888 incurred liabilities 100000 in ex-
cess of its earnings. At the end of 1887
the company had surplus of nearly
1000, 900. Assuming that this fund has
been drawn on, deficit of nearly
S3.5OO,0OO still stares the Burlington
officials in the face. The engineers
strike, bad crops last year and low rates
are causes which have operated to pro-
duce this result

sCHEFFER's CAMPAIGN.

Since MIR. SCHEFFER broke back into
the Republican party he has become a
veritable bull in china shop to the
Republican managers. The way be is
smashing the crockery ware of the
bosses is canton, and the worst of it
is. they can't get ring in his nose by
which to tie him up.
Mr.. SCHEFFER has been thorn in the
side of the Republican bosses all along,
and has been the main obstacle in the
way of keeping the machine from run
ming smoothly. The only breathing
spell the bosses have had since SCHEF-
FER accepted the alliance nomination
was when they thought they had
him safely chained down in the
Democratic pasture. They were not en-
tirely comfortable then, for they
realized that if SCHEFFER should
happen to become the opposition candi-
date for governor he was capable of Civ
ing them an endless amount of worry
in the campaign, with all the probability
of a sweeping defeat for them at the
polls. Yet it was temporary relief to
them to have him out of the way. if for
only one day, in order that they might
have an opportunity to get the machine
in repair and to give the rings chance
to catch breath. But when SCHEFFER
came bounding right back into the Re-
publican shop, and with renewed vigor
and energy recommended the work of
smashing the machine, the bosses were
in despair, and have been ever since.
They say that SCHEFFER can not pos
Sibly muster strength enough to capture
the Republican nomination, ana pos
Sibly they are right about that. But
for all that, he is mastering larger
force than they care to see under
his leadership, and it will be big enough
to give the machine manipulators a deal
of trouble when they get into conyen-
ton. The men who are backing SCHEF-
FER are in dead earnest in their oppoSi-
ton to the high tariff and free whisky
planks of the Chicago platform. They are
farmers, who have suffered long enough
from the injustice of the Republican
protective policy, and they are going to
demand that the Republicans of Mime
sofa shall take issue with the national
Republican party on this question.
They are, Furthermore, determined to
have relief from the domination of the
wheat and railroad rings, if they have to
burst the Republican machine to get it.
That is why MI. SCHEFFER's antics
are so worrying 10 the Republican man
ayers. He has too much Teutonic IN,
dependence to wear collar; conSe.
quently the bosses can't control him
His followers are dead set in their de-
termination to have what they want
and what they want is just what the
Republican managers do not want.

SHERIDAN Is DEAD.

After long conflict with the last en-
envy gallant PHIL SHERIDAN surren-
dered last night to the only foe that ever
triumphed over the great American
soldier. With the knowledge that death
was inevitable, it is a consolation to
know that his SufferingS are ended: and
yet the announcement of his death will
fill the land with mourning. Nor will
there be any sectlonalism in this ma
tiOnal sorrow.
OF all the great leaders who won fame
in the late war, SHERIDAN was the most
poetic figure. The record of his mill
tary achievements reads as if it belonged
to the days of ancient chivalry, when
knights performed deeds of Prov
eSs that were immortalized in song
and romance. And yet he was not
merely those dashIng cavlryman who
loved to ride at the head of his troops
in quest of adventure. He was great
general as well, capable of handling
large armies with consummate skill, and
one who never lost battle.
Gen. GRANT was the head of the
army of the Potomac. PHIL SHERIDAN
was its soul. 1t was from him that
radiated the sentiment which inspired
the army with exalted heroism. He
was the constant eXemplar of all that
was daring in battle and skillful in
maneuver. The flash of his sword as
he rode at the head of the column was
the beacon light of victory. His pres
ence on the battle field, like the heart
of the dead BRUCE, was sufficient to
arouse an army to the highest pitch of
courage and to make it invincible.
The value of such an officer as Gen.
SHERIDAN in time of war is beyond
all computation. The value of his sery-
ices did not consist more in his knowl-
edge of military affairs and his ability
to execute important movements than
it did in the personal influence aman of
his heroic qualities could exert over
an army. In addition to possessing the
faculty of imparting his own zeal and
valor to the troops, he likewise had the
ability of winning their confidence to
such degree that they would follow
him blindly whithersoeyer he led. Gen.
/ SHERIDAN was to the Union army what
W
forces.
1t is gratifying that Gen. SHERIDAN
lived long enough after the war to reap
the full measure of fame and to enjoy
the full reward of his patriotic services.
He had been promoted to the highest
position in the army, and held place
III the hearts of his countrymen that nc
other occupied at the time of his death.
He could have been president of the
United States if he had even expressed
Willingness to accept the post, for all
the political parties were anxious to
name him as their candidate. But in
declining political station he simply
added new laurel wreath to the brow
that had already been abundantly
crowned. His training had been alto
gether of military nature, and he had
the good sense to know that he was not
qualified for the duties of statesman
ship. He wished to die as he had lived

BLAINE IN No HURRY.

Mr.. BLAINE doesn't seem to have
been in as much of hurry to get home
as was supposed. He has continued to
linger, notwithstanding the Macedo-
man cries that went over the water to
him. The delay in his homecoming is
probably due to the fact that this diSap-
pointed Ulysses of Republicanism knows
that there is no faithful Penelope await
ing him. Things have all gone cross
wise since Mr.. BLAINE started on his
foreign journeys. His party got a
divorce from him, and has found an
other lover. The new lover hasn't a
record to suit Mr.. BLAINE's taste.
There is too much of Chinese
flavor about it to be palata-
BILE to the man whose strong
point in the canvass four years ago was
his anti-ChineSe record. And another
thing that bothers Mr.. BLAINE is to
know what to 90 with HARRISON if he
should be elected. Mr.. BLAINE is
Shrewd enough to see that HARRISON
would be white elephant Of extra
ordinary size on the hands of the Re-
publican party in case he should cupy
the White house. His aristocratic tend
encies would naturally incline him to
English ideas in the administration of
the government. His antagonism to
the labor interest would stultify the Re
publican party after making the fraud
ulent claim of being the peculiar cham
pion of the workingmen. 1t is
also known that Gen. HARRI-
son is conscientious advocate
of the free whisky plank in the
Chicago platform. So that altogether it
is very well calculated to worry man
of Mr.. BLAINE's political shrewdness
to know what his party will do with
such president as HARRISON would
make. He is sensible enough to know
that by the end of HARRIsoN's term
there wouldn't be even grease spot
left to mark the place where the Repub-
lican party once stood. 1t is no wonder,
then. that Mr.. BLAINE is in 10 hurry to
come back and assume any degree OF
responsibility for the management OF
the camCaign.

to-day to engraft the resolution above
given in the Ohio state labor platform.
