A young man with gimlet two feet long
stopped in front of a telegraph pole in u
street in New York city the other day and
began to bore into it. Another young man
stopped also and asked the first what he
was about, to which the following reply
was made: Il am going to find out how
long this stick will stand up. | am en-
ployed by the company that owns the pole
and it is my business to go about the
streets making inspections like this. Every
pole is numbered, and when L make my re-
port the company takes action according to
the condition of the wood. This is the
only way we can tell how strong the pole
is, for decay begins beneath the surface
and works towards the center. 1t shows on

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.
Freight Business stin on the Decline.

Freight Business
Freight traffic in the week ending Jan. 5
fell below expectations, and considerably
below that of the corresponding week IN
1888; but in this case comparisons are hard
" fair, as the holidays this year came on
such days as to demoraliZe business more
than it did last year. In glancing over the
train records it is noticeable that the
loss of business this year was wholly in the
forepart of the week, the movement over
the Belt road and the Union tracks in the
last three days of the week being SO heavy
as to excite remark. In the coming week
the volume of business will likely show a
closing Saturday last. Cars are more
plenty, and there is disposition to load
them promptly, in order that the present
fair rates may be obtained, for no one
knows what day may bring forth in this
direction; but while present indications
point to steady and firm rates, SOME road
which feels that it is not getting its proper
ton of business may cut them at any time.
East-bound there is heavier move
ment of grain, lumber and live stock, and
shippers are rapidly adjusting their prices
so as to enable them to pay the advanced
rates, which are still below those of former
years in mid-winter. West-bound, as usual,
after the holidays. the tonnage is light. and
is likely to continue so for thirty days or
more. North-and-south roads are doing but
little through business. Shipments of grain
and provisions to the South are lighter than
at the corresponding period last year, but
there is considerable machinery going
through from the North for new manufac-
tories which are springing up over the
South. About the only thing the South has
to ship North at the present time is oranges
and Southern pine lumber for the ear man
nfacturers. Local business is good, all
things considered. The tonnage of Indiana
Goals is falling far below that of the CORE
spending period in 1888, the mild weather,
as well as the introduction of natural gas,
being against this branch of traffic. The
roads are now carrying about as many hogs
as usual in January, but through December
the shipments fell considerably below those
of year ago. The manufacturers are ship

All, all is gone those hours of golden glory;

Shortly before 6 o'clock p. NJ. black clouds

ward one of the greatest storms known IN

startled people. The mercury fell to thirty
hours. The wind blew hurricane, and
the fall of snow was prodigious. All that
night the storm ragged. The snow ceased
falling about z o'clock A. NJ. New Year
piled the snow in huge drifts everywhere.
Travel was suspended, and the cold grew
more intense. At noon the thermometer
showed twenty degrees below zero.

Name of Road.
Rules for Avoiding Collisions.
ny Management in January scribner.

halfway Management IN January Scribner.
When train is prevented from arriving
on time at its meeting point, we must have
some rules by which the opposing train may
proceed, or all business on the road would
be suspended by the delay of a single train.
Only the general principles of these rules
can be stated within limits They are as
follows:
First-All freight trains must wait indefi-
nitely for all passenger trains.
Second-When one train only is behind
time, the opposing train of the same class
will wait for it specified time, usually ten
minutes, and five minutes more for possible
variation of watches; then go ahead, keep
ing fifteen minutes behind its schedule.
Third-But should such train, running on
delayed time, lose more time, or in any other
way should both trains get behind time,
then the one which is bound in certain
direction-for instance north-has the
right to the track, and the other must lie
by indefinitely.
These principles duly observed will pre-
vent collisions, but they will often cause
trains TO lose a great deal of time. The train
dispatcher, therefore, has authority to
handle extra and delayed trains by direct
telegraphic order

DAILY, SUNDAY And WEEKLY.
The Most Complete Newspaper
in all Departments in the
State of Indiana.

No newspaper in the West is more widely or
more favorably known than the INDIANAPOLIS
JOURNAL. BY the display of enterprise andstrict
attention to the wants of the reading public. dur
ing the great campaign of 1888, it has taken
leading position among the most prominent jour
nails of the country, and is certainly among the
best. Among the newspapers of the State it is
prominently the best, and Indiana readers
nowhere else find what they want in the way Of
State and local news. 1t circulates largely in
every county in Indiana, and has correspondents
In every town and village OF Importance. It's
market reports are prepared with the greatest
care possible, and no pains or expense are spared
to make them accurate and absolutely reliable.
1t is the only newspaper in the State owning and
publishing all the news furnished by the two
great press associations tthe Western Associated
Press and the United Press, in addition TO which
it furnishes an abundance of special service from
all the principal cities of the country. II has
been, and will in future be. the aim of the pub
fishers to make the INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL per-
feet and complete newspaper, deficient in no de-
partment or particular The paper challenges
comparison with any of IFS contemporaries.
No Indiana reader, certainly Indiana Re-
publican, should be without the Journal. While
it is thoroughly and soundly Republican in poll
ties. devoted to the interest of the Republican
party, the JOURNAL will not allow its news TO be
colored by partisan bias, but win give the news
of the day without fear or favor.
Owing TO the prominence of Indiana in the
next administration, the JOURNAL viii give par
ticular prominence to Washington news. which
will be given far more completely than ever be-
fore. For this reason if for no other, no Indiana
reader can afford to be without it for the next
four years.
In addition to its new features. the JOURNAL
regales its readers with the productions of some
Of the best known literary men and women Of
the day. Many of the most celebrated magazine
writer's and authors are contributors to its liter
airy columns, making it a paper for the household
and home circle Special arrangements have
been made for features of this character which
will appear in the JOURNAL during the coming
year. These appear most largely in the SUNDAY
