Farninrs of the l iirnis Ganlral.

CHICAGO, Sept. 20.-The annual report Of
the Illinois Central Company, made public
this afternoon, shows for the year ending
June 30, 1890: Gross earnings Of the Illinois
Central proper S14,448,0 ,006; Dubuque and
Sioux City line, 81 ,909, 924; Cedar Falls and
Minnesota line, S94.O92. Total SIG, 49,, 022.
This is an increase, compared with the pre-
ceding year, If S1,296 405 The net earn
ings of the Illinois Central proper were
S4, 4,8S2, 901. an increase Of S5l,76l. The re-
port says the fact that the large increase
in the gross revenue has not been followed
by an equal increase in the net earnings is
due to three causes. First, an increase Of
standards which entaled an expenditure
for the maintenance OF ways and structures
Of 81, no. III, an increase OF Sol, $50 over the
amount spent the previous year. A large
portion of this was due TO the laying in the
track of 24GO0 tuns of steel rails The sec
ond cause was the submerglBg of the tracks
for Ing distance in Louisiana during the
unpre, edented floods of last spring, necessi-
tating a large outlay for repairs and the
payment of large sums TO ether railways,
whose tracks were temporarily used. The
third reason given is strike, which tied up
the road in June.

A CAIN on the Nation.

New YORK, September 20-The Press
says: The direct and positive information
that the family of General Fremont are in
need of the actual necessaries of life is
matter which touches the entire nation.
General Fremont was not only national
figure but a great historical figure As the
pathfinder" of the Rocky Mountains he
blazed the way by which civlliz-
alton poured westward over those almost
impossible natural barriers to found impe-
nal States on the Pacific Coast. His ex-
plorations were almost as important as the
acquisition of the territory itself. Surely
Mrs Fremont and her daughter ought not
to want for bread. even If the Government
must be appealed to for its provision. The
aid for her should come from every part OF
the nation which was SO sreatly benefited
by her husbands labors.

L. Fnur of Reninrociiv

PHILAD ELPHIA, Sept. 20. - Adolph
Spreckeis tells the Philadelphia Press,
which has been securing the views of Phila-
delphia business men on the subjec. of
reciprocity: "We strongly favor reciprocity.
We don't think 1t good business judgment to
give away valuable market for nothing.
AS for reciprocity, we know something
about it in the case of the Sandwich Islands.
1t has been of great advantage to this coun-
try in that case. The result has been that
the leading planters in the Sandwich
Islands are Americans, the product is
brought 10 this country in American ships,
the insurance Is in American companies
and the trade greatly increases the general
business ON the Pacific Coast. If reciprocity
has this effect in one case, and that q small
one, why not in others ?"
