UNITED SERVICE
At Center Church Yesterday.

At Center Church Yesterday.
 At the united Thanksgiving service of various Congregational churches at Center church yesterday the sermon, which was of very able character throughout, was de- ivered by Rev. Dr. Twitchell. He spoke of the duty of thankfulness to the creator. He reviewed the educational. political and ecclesiastical situations in our country to- day, deducting therefrom many reasons and causes for thankfulness and encour- agement. He spoke of the grandeur of our land and institutions and the blessings we as people enjoy. and enforced this lesson by comparisons made regarding various other nations of the world not similarly blessed. The sermon was one of much power. Assisting in the services were Drs. Smyth, Munger and Phillips. There was singing by the congregation.

The sale Of the gem lands to the English
oo,nnany assures the construction of the
valley railroad to Eldorado bar and to
Canyon Ferry early IN the spring. While
there has been no question about work
being continued on the road next summer,
the fact that there will be extensive mining
operations carried on along the Missouri,
next year, will have the effect OF inducing
the owners of the line to begin work just as
early in the spring as the weather will per
nit. The road ia graded and ironed from
the corner OF Ninth avenue and Davis eaaS
to tho city limits. From the present end OF
the track the line will take a northeasteriy
course to the Standard Mills, or Big Prickiy
Pear. thence along Sage Brush Hollow to a
noint within a mile Of Eldosado bar.
Thence in a northeasterly direction to
Stubbs' Ferry, and along the Missouri to
CANYON Ferry. The distance from Helena
to Eldnrado bar is about twelve miles, and
ii will not tako very long to build that
distance.
There is very little doubt but that 1T will

but the FIRST rail connection the Castle peo-
pie will have will be with Helena.

THE BOYCOTT DIES HARD.
Trunk Lines Fail to Declare Oh War
on the Alton. f.

Trunk Lines Fail to Declare on the wal
on the Alton.
Much comment has been excited by the
failure Of the passenger meeting OF the
Trunk and Central Traffic association lines
in New York to formally declare the boy
colt on the Alton off and authorize a re-
sumption OF friendly relations by all the
roads with that line. From the reports
that have been received it appears that the
matter has been left just where 1t was md
that practically nothing was accomplished
at the meeting. What is to be gained by
this line of action nobody is able to con-
cieve. The Alton has now several through
trunk lines open for it's business, and it is
entirely independent of the roads that still
propose to keep aloof from it. 1t will not
suffer any from all the hostility that can
now be shown it, and these roads are sim
ply deprlving themselves Of the share of
the Atoms business they would receive
were the boycott to be declared OH.
In the meantime individual lines are TAX
inc action on their own account, and it is
almost CO. tain that within the next few
days two or three more of the trunk lines
will follow the example of the Erie and
III their resumption OF friendly rela-
tions with the Alton. The last roads to do
80 are those of the Ohio Central system,
comprising the Toledo y Ohio Central, the
Toledo, Columbus, d Cincinnati and the
Kanawha q Michigan. 1t is probable that
the roads taking this action may still le-
frain from the payment of commissions
themselves and may ask their western con-
nections not to pay commissions to their
agents, but the continuance of the boycott
plan of forcing them to refrain from pay
ing such commissions seems to have the last
yeytige of life squeezed out of 1t. 1t will
probably be a long time before another boy
colt is declared in connection with the
management OF railroads in this country.

BIG FREIGHT CARS.

From IL, 900 Pounds Capacity in 1850 to
10000 Pounds in 1891.
As a train of thirty loaded cars, hauled
by a heavy freight engine, passed along the
Belt road yesterday, Il railway official said
to an Indianapolis Journal reportes: Does
it ever occur to you that a train of the pres
ent day of thirty cars represents a train of
ninety cars twenty-five years ago, SO much
has the capacity of cars been increased?'
He then gave some points of interest as re
CARDS the increase in capacity of cars since
1850. In 1850 q majority OF freight cars
rested on four wheels, and had n carrying
capacity of from 10000 to $1,000 pounds.
About that time the eight-wheel car, with
two trucks was introduced, with a carrying
capacity Of from $4,000 to 10000 pounds.
This was thought to be a wonderful advance
in railroad business. For ten years follow
ing but little change was made. About 1850
an eastern road built some cara which
had a carrying capacity of 10000 pounds,
and a Number of roads refused to allow
such cars to rum over their lines fearing
they would break down their bridges.
These fears. however, soon subsidized, and
Cars Of 10000 pounds capacity soon became
quite common on the more important Dads.
and the lighter cars were sold to short roads
for local business. In 1870 a number of the
better class OF roads had got their tracks in
such condition that they increased the Ca
pacity of the cars they used in through ser
vice to 0,00O pounds, the Merchauts' Dis
patch Fast Fteight line being the first to
build cars of such capacity. Inc demands
of shippers and the competition soon forced
all the Important roads to begin to increase
the capacity OF their cars. and the pennsyl-
vania, the Erie and the New York Central
commenced building, in the '70s, cars of
sc, 600 pounds ca pacity, and by 1850 half of
the ca s in the through service were built to
carry $4,000 pounds. Meanwhile the weight
of locomotives was increasing, and the de-
many Of shlppers' cars OF more capacity in
creased, and in 1857 the Pennsylvania
led off IN building cars of co.
000 pounds capacity. Since that date
all the tiyat-class roads nave
been introducing these cars, until 30 per
cent. OF tho cars IN through service
on what are considered the eastern and
western trunk lines will carry safely
10000 pounds. and the question is asked ia
the limit yet reached? Cars of light Ca
paeity are put i'll the local service. and
when worn ont ara replaced with the heav-
Ter cars. But a few days ago one Of the
heavy consolidated engines on the Big Four
road hauled fifty-two loaded cars from
Delaware, O., to Cleveland. Every car was
of GO,0W pounds capacity, and the weight
of freight on that one train wag 3,126, 600
pounds, weight of ears, averaging them at
37,0W pounds per car. l,924 900 pounds:
total weight of the train, 5,044 .6C0 pounds.
In the 5Os this tonnage would have loaded
Mt Least 100 cars OF the capacity then built.
Ihe above statement shows tat the cost of
transportation has been greatly reduced as
we'll as rates, but not probably in 80 great a
ratio.
