Special to the Gazette.
New YORK, July 16.-The stock exchange
governors have ordered S47,OO0,O00 of new
common stock of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railroad company to be admitted to the
list, and that the trustees report of the
company all assessments paid except second
mortgage bonds, which have been hitherto
dealt in pending the common stock issue of
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas in the re-
organization, be stricken from the list on
the 3lst of this month
Gould has suffered more or less from
neuralgia attacks during the past few
weeks, and although he does not admit that
he is sick, he was determined, so his friends
say, to give himself plenty of rest this sum-
mer
The management of the Chicago and
Alton railroad claims the forthcoming state
ment for the first half of the year will show
an increase in earnings over the first half
of 1890, in spite of the boycott.
The impression still exists that the Wind
sor meeting developed more or less friction,
to which is attributed the more bearish ut
terances of the supposed followers of
Gould. This is mistake if the talk of
men who were at the meeting is at all
trustworthy. The nearest approach to
friction was on the decision of the board
placing the export tariff via Galveston I'M
der the jurisdiction of the association The
Santa F'e had started a very profitable ex-
port trade via this port, and had taken a
differential from the all-rail line rate to
New York. 1t claimed the association
had no jurisdiction over water routes, but
because it considered the life of the asso-
citation of more Importance than any tenn
porary advantage it may get from business
via Galveston, it has withdrawn its re-
duced rate and accepts the decision of the
board for the sake of harmony. President
Marvel did not vote on the resolution, and
in spite of the decision still claims that he
has right to differential, but will not

Louis at 7:30 a. IN and arrive in New York
been many moons since the shortest time
between ST Louis and New York was
thirty-siX hours, and short time ago the
Vandaiia paralyzed its competitors by cut
cutting the time to thirty-three hours, and
now by this move has cut the time one and
one-half hours still shorter. The distance
is ITO miles, which makes the time, includ-
ing stops, thirty-three and one-third miles
an hour. Eliminating the time consumed
in stops and the actual running time is
something over forty miles an hour. average
speed over the lines. OF course there are
portions OF the SySte m, in
the mountains for instance, where the run
ming time is considerably less, probably not
to exceed % miles an hour, and this naturally
increases the time on the more level por-
tons of the track in Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio to nearly if not quite 60 miles an hour
1t has always been a popularity of the
Vandalia line that while it has the shortest
line it has ever had the quickest time, in
this respect being always in the lead of its
competitors, its motto being I'VE lead, let
others follow
The assistant general passenger agent, J.
NJ. Ches borough, has been in the service of
the company for many years and his efforts
to give good service are ably seconded by
the operating department. 1t would not
be SURPRISING if the Vandalia would yet re-
duce the time between St. Louis and New
York to 25 hours.

Different Views.

LONDON, July 16-Lord Salisbury be-
lieves the question of women voting de-
mands consideration, and the abolition of
the illiterate voter is perhaps necessary.
Home rule has not effected a Judgment in
England. 1t was supported by American
gold and is now backed by clerical coz
spiracy.
Lord Salisbury holds that Ireland, Wales
and North Scotland were over-represented
and England, especially, under-represented
in parliament, and redistribution of seats
was necessary, which would be advanta-
geous to the Conservatives.
Earl Spencer, formerly lord-lieutenant of
Ireland, says the home rule policy of the
Liberals is stronger than ever

glowing and abounding with love Of
country and of all humanity. His
glorious soul appeared in every look,
gesture and word. The history of our
country is rich in soldiers who have set
examples of simple soldierly obedience
to the civil law of self abnegation.
Washington, Grant, Sherman and Sher-
idan lead the list. Sherman was the
last of the illustrious trio, who were by
universal consent the foremost figures
in the armies of the Union in the late
war. Among the precious traditions
Ito pass into our history for the admira-
ton of the old and the instruction of the
young) was their friendship. their most
harmonious cooperation without a
shadow of ambition of pride. When
Gen. Grant was called to Washington
to take command of the armies of the
Union his great heart did not forget the
men who stood by him..
Here Mr.. Hawler read the letter from
Grant to Sherman, written at that time,
expressing thanks to him and McPher-
son, as the men, above all others, to
whom he owed his success, and Sher-
mans letter in reply, saying that Gen.
Grant did himself injustice and them
too much honor. Mr.. Hawley closed
way from grief and emotion, by reading
the following passages from Bunyan's
Pilgrims Progress:'
After this it was noised about that Mr..
Valiant-for-Truth was taken with sum-
mons. When he understood it he called
for his friends and told them of it. Then
said he: Il am going to my fathers,
and though with great difficulty | got
hither, yet now do not repent me of all
the trouble | have been at to arrive at
where | have been. The sword l give to
him that shall succeed me in my pilgrim
age, and my courage and skill to him that
can get them. My scars and marks l
carry with me to be witness for me that
l have fought his battles who will now be
a rewarder." When the day that he must
go hence came many accompanied him to
the riverside, into which, as he went, he
said: death, where is thy sting?" and as
he went down deeper he said: "Grave,
where is thy victory?' So he passed over,
and all the trumpets sounded for him on
the other side.
Several other senators spoke feelingly
in praise of the dead hero, and then the
resolutions were adopted by rising
vote and the senate adjourned.
