RAILWAY MATTERS.
THE CONSOLIDATION SCHEME.

THE CONSOLIDATION SCHEME.
Messrs. Dwight Bfaman g. Co. issue a cir
cular to Eastern railroad stockholders in
which they say:
We believe in consolidation only on fair
and equitable basis, otherwise the Eastern
railroad is better off under the lease. You
have absolute control of the situation.
The Boston and Maine Railroad company
cannot now issue any more improvement
bonds, so that any expenditures for improve
ments will have to be taken out of the sur
plus earnings after the Eastern railroad gets
its full rental. Consolidation, therefore, is
necessary On the part Of the Boston and
Maine railroad company, or the present is
sue by its terms is broken. Now it cannot
be supposed for one moment that the East
ern railroad on any new lease would tIke
anything less than guaranteed 10per cent.
stock for itself on the property. BY itself,
we believe 1t to be earning surplus OF over
100000 per annum, or 10 per cent. on Its
stock. The just and proper way to CONSOLE
date is to take the terms of the present lease
Eastern railroad the surplus earnings, which
sets to which it is entitled.
We do not think it just or proper for the
Eastern common stockholders to pay off the
floating debt of the Boston and Maine rail-
road of over 81 900, 900, as is proposed.
awe do not think 1t just to propose that the
Eastern railroad should give the Boston and
Maine railroad all its surplus assets, worth
81 ,250, 900. for nothing, besides surrendering
its equity in all of its valuable real estate.
Therefore for ourselves we must decline
this offer Of the Boston and Maine directors

What They Say at the Hub.

Especial to the PreSS.l
BosToN. April 26.-The articles from your
Boston correspondent which your paper has
published recently. in which mention of
some of the work OF this Institute has been
made, have brought from your section to
this Office many hundreds of letters of anx
ious inquiry from sufferers of Throat and
Lung diseases which we so successfully
treat by the Polypathic system, and while
we had heretofore thought our system of
treating by mail to be perfect. we now find
if taxed to its fullest capacity. The manage
ment has found it utterly impossible in
many cases to receive from the answers to
our list of questions diagnosis from their
family physician sufficiently accurate to en-
able us to proceed intelligently. and it has
therefore boon decided a. dee~-. s-e->
usual custom, and send our chief consulting
physician, William Fletcher Hail. M. D., in
company with our president, 81. Nelson
Brown, M. D., to Portland every Monday
and Tuesday in May, commencing Monday,
May 5th, and continuing every Monday
and Tuesday during the month of
May, where at our parlors. Falmouth
Hotel, Especially engaged all those
who have written and received ap-
pointments may CALL and any others suffer
ing from Head, Throat and Lung diseases
who care to do so. The doctors will, during
these days, examine all who call by the
Polypathic system, making full diagnosis.
The fee for such examination in Portland
will be $500 each, which will be recognized
as one-half the price charged at the Insti-
tute. Patients examined for local physi-
clans by appointment only. Hours 10 a. m.
to 4 p. m. The Office will open and close
promptly on the time state.

A Useful Organization.

Lieutenant j. b. Cahoon, head of the corps
of experts in the Thomson Houston Electric
works of Lynn, Mass, has lately inaugur-
ated new organization among the experts,
called the Association of Electric Engineers.
1t is composed of those among the experts
who have taken a degree at one of the tech
nical schools, either of mechanical or electri-
cal engineer, or bachelor of science The eff
feet of it is to make a separate corps of ex-
perts. and to greatly raise the standard of ex-
cellence among them. The meetings are
called weekly, on Thursday evenings, in
Factory G, and the method is original but
excellent. Lieutenant Cahoon acts as SUI
perintendent of instruction and selects some
subject of especial interest to the men upon
which one member writes paper. At each
meeting the chairman presiding appoints his
successor. so that there is a change of chair
man for each meeting. After the evenings
essayist has read his paper, an opportunity
is given for discussion, and the paper is
thoroughly picked to pieces. The result of
this is that each member is upon his mettle,
and when he prepares paper seeks to make
it as thorough and conclusive as possible.
Thus far there have been papers on the arc
light, the motor type Of generators, alternat-
ing mediums, the potential and current indi-
Gators and railway motors. 1t is the design
to alternate practical and theoretical themes
in the meetings. At present lack of space
prevents large attendance, only the 16
members and foremen now attending, but
lecture room for the use of the society will
be fitted up in the new Office building, which
will permit the attendance of 100 or more
which will make it possible for the remain
ing experts and friends to attend.
Lieutenant CahoOn is Portland boy and
is a retired officer Of the navy.
