CHARGED TO PINKERTONs.
Dastardly Attempt to Wreck a
New York Central Flyer.


ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. 30.-A das-
tardly attempt to wreck the Chicago ex-
press, which was due here at2:05 o'clock
this morning, was made about two miles
west of Albany, where the cow-catcher
of the engine struck pile of ties which
had been placed on the track. For
tunately the ties were in such position
as to be easily swept aside. No damage
resulted and the train arrived here a
few minutes late. District Master
Workman Lee said the ties were I'M
doubtedly placed upon the track by the
Pinkerton men in order to make the
company believe that their presence
here will still be necessary to protect
the property and to preserve order.
This view was strengthened when it
was learned the easy manner in which
the ties were thrown off the track. Mr..
Lee said this sort of doings had charac-
terized the actions of the Pinkerton men
in many previous strikes on other
roads.

Heading or a Greedy Corporation.

WAsHINGToN, Aug. 30.-Secretary
Noble has sustained the decision of the
general land office rejecting the claim
of the Central Pacific Railroad company
to certain tracts of land in Sacramento
land district on the ground that while
the land is within the primary limits of
the railroad grant they are mineral
lands, and, therefore. the railroad COM
pany acquired no rights thereto under
it's grant. The decision from which the
company appealed was made up on the
petition of s. ID. Valentine.

seem TO be a very curious arrangement
geographically for q line running east
and west through Canada to reach out to
the Gulf of Mexico for a feeder, sucn an
undertaking suggesting the idea of the

1t comes from good authority that the
route of the Fort Worth Dallas electric
railroad, thIrty-two miles long, has been
located and engineers in this city are now
at work on the proiiles. This road is TO
run south of the river, so it il stated. 1t
will enter Fort Worth at Hyde Park and

An electric railway is to be constructed

probably gave rise to the report.

An Eastern paper in the following ar
ticle tells how travellers are treated on

Nothing too good for the travelling
public seems to be the motto of our rail-
ways, aud they are continuing to vie with
each other in the luxuriousness and cost
illness of passenger equipment. The
new "royal blue'' trains recently put in
service between New York and Wash
inglou over the Baltimore and Ohio,
PhlladeldhiH and Reading and Central of
New Jersey railways seem III some re-
spects to have reached n higher point OF
elegance than previous productions OF the
car builders art, aS applied to day
coaches. The cars are painted Il rich
blue and bear only the words New
YORK, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington, - each of the three COM
panies furnishing the equipment having
its initials embossed on the transom glass
of the ca forming its Quota.
while the outside bears the coat
of arms of Maryland, Pennsyl-
vania or New Jersey, according
as the owning road has Its HEADQUARTERS
in one Of those states. The interior is
finished in mahogany the seats are I'M
hulstered in seal brown or gold bronze
plush. the floors are carpeted. the win
dOws have cloth shades instead of wooden
blinds, each car has a spacious smokinr-
room, besides ladies and gentlemen,
toilet rooms, and is lighted with Pintsch
gas aud heated by the Safety heating
and lighting company's double coil
Baker heater. Vestibules, Jannev-
Miller combination platforms, steel
aXles steel tire wheelSand other improved
appliances are used; in short nothing
seems to be omitted that will tend TO the
comfort and safety of the traveller. A
porter accompanies each tram. When If
is remembered that these are not sleepiDg
or drawing room ears for wni,h a special
charge is made, but are the regular day
coaches, the care and expense bestowed
in their construction show that the rail-
ways desire 10 please all classes of
travellers.
The Chicago Railway Age has the fol-
lowing: 4 correspondent at St. Louis
writes US: 1t is rumored here that when
the st. Louis, Arkansas X Texas railway
Is sold in October il will pass into the
hands of the Canadian Pacific, like the
Wabash railway. Then by filling gap
of about 100 miles from St. Louis to
Delta, Mo-, the Canadian Pacific will
have continuous line from points in
Canada 10 Galveston, and the shortest
line by several hundred miles.
The Canadian Pacific has accomplished
many bold strokes in the way of ex-
tension and doubtless still has am
bition for others, but the scheme sug-
gested by this correspondent does not
seem very probable. The tact that the
Missouri Pacific controls the ST. Louis,
Arkansas and Texas IS one of the diff
tu-ties in the way. and another is that
the Canadian Pacific does not own the
Wseash, although it evidently has
