RAILROAD AFFAIRS.
The TTanSCOntin6ntal Meeting Discusses the
RaiSil Tariff 0her Reads.

New YORK, Oct.16.-The Transcontinental
Association is in session in this city to-day
with full representation. The matter OF
Pacific Mail subsidy is under consideration
and is proving to be difficult problem to
solve. 1t is proposed that the lines pay the
same guarantee to the Pacific Mail as paid
in the past, but no agreement as to the pro
rata to be paid by tie different lines has been
reached up to this afternoon. The Northern
Pacific claim that they are paying too great
a proportion of the guarantee, and are max
ing fight to have their share of the expense
lessened. 1t was decided to let the matter
of the weighing Of freight on the Pacific
Coast stand as 1t Is until the next general
meeting. The association and the agents of
the delivering lines will continue TO weigh
the freight. The charges that some Of the
lines were paying commissions were not suS-
tanned and the matter was dropped.
Neither the commission nor the subsidy
matter was definitely settled at to-day's
meeting, ana will be taken up again to-mor-
row. A representative OF leading fruit
shippers addressed the association on the
subject OF lower rate on fruits and canned
goods from California. His request was not
received with Open-armed cordiality. The
railroad men admitted that on certain kinds
of goods. as, for instance, second crop
raisins, the tariff should be lowered. They
hteheu u lear, however. were SuCH Il U.S.
tinctiOn made there would be a sudden
and startling increase in the amount Of sec
0nd crop products, with a corresponding
decrease in the production Of irst-crop
fruit.
THE ATCHIsoN's PROSPECTS.
New YORK, Oct. 16.-A special from Lon
don, received in Wall street by a member of
q prominent banking house, says: "Atchi-
son continues to surprise and even dumlound
traders high aud low. Our solution for its
strength Is that its position is assured, and
1t is now only a question whether they may
not earn a dividend in 1892 on the shares.
This may sound exceedingly optimistic, con-
siderng the enormous funded debt and share
capital; but the mileage is proportionately
large and it runs through such diversified
country that there is no limit to its earn
ings, providing the company is ably aud
economically managed"
