B. AND o.'s NEW THROUGH LINE.
Preparing for the Immense Traffic In
cident to the Worlds Fair.

Preparing for the Immense Traffic In
cident to the Worlds Fair.
The management Of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad is preparing for an immense business
in 1893 while the worlds fair is open in Chi
cago. The terminals at Chicago are capable of
accommodating a much heavier traffic than Is
now being done, and important changes are
being arranged for the handling of very heavy
freight and passenger business to the west from
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. New
equipment for largely increased passenger
business ard an extensive stock of freight cars
have been ordered. The various roads of the
system will be improved by Strengthened lines,
reduced grades extra side tracks, anC inter
locking switches. The new line between Chi
cago junction and Akron has shortened the
distance between Chicago and the tide water
twenty-five miles, and between Pittsburg and
Chicago f1fty-eght miles.
The distance between Chicago and Pittsburg
and Chicago and Cleveland by che construction
of the Akron line and the acquisition of the
Pittsburg and Western line and the Valley Rail
road OF Ohio. is about the same as via the Lake
Shore from Cleveland TO Chicago, and by the
Pennsylvania from Plttsburg to Chicago. The
alignment is to be changed and grades reduced
to maximum of tWenty-six feet 1t is ex-
pected that within twelve months the
old Baltimore and Ohio through line, between
Chicago and the Atlantic ocean will have passed
away and the new line via Pittsburg be estab-
llshed, with no greater grades or curvature
than on any Of the trunk lines.
Work has already begun east of Pittsburg to
meet Improvements making west of Pittsburg.
These Improvements will consist of additional
second and third tracks, a general correction of
the alignment, and completion of the double
track on the Metropolitan branch 1t is ex-
pected that the new through line will be ready
simultaneously with the completion Of the Belt
Line through the city of Baltimore, which is
intended to unite the Washington branch with
the Philadelphia division and do away with the
present line via Locust Point. Forty new and
powerful locomotive engines were added to the
equipment during the last two months, and
others are in process Of construction. The per-
manent improvements now under way and in
contemplation involve the expenditure of some
five millions Of dollars,-BdLt Amertcdn,

A PLUMBER MIS- SING,

James Nutall Has Been Away from
Home a Week
James Nutall, well"known plumber, has
been missing for the past week. He was
acting strangely when last seen, and his
friends fear that he has wandered away and
possibly met with an accident. His wife is
very anxious to secure some information of
his whereabouts. and any one possessed of
such information would confer a favor
upon Mrs Nutall by furnishing her with
clew that might lead to his location.
Mr. Nutall was fireman at the Savannah
plumbing works up TO u short time ago, but
recently was in business for himself on
Drayton street. He sold out his interest,
however, last week.

The Fxnenaa Ratio

There is one feature Of the management
of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance
Company that challenges the admiration of
the world-indeed, there are many, but this
one item of It's statement must alone place
1t in the front rank of financial institutions.
The expense ratio of the company to the in.
come during its forty-seven years was but
Sol per cent. on the average, a record that
has no equal elsewhere. This is the real
test of insurance growth, and 1t illustrates
how economically Col. Greene has managed
the Mutuars rapidly increasing business.
More than this, it demonstrates, silently yet
significantly, how the expenses of some
other companies are augmented through I'm.
necessary accumulation of commissions and
the development of business In Localities
where competition means simply practical
ruination. The company in 1892 by its
forty-seventh annual report demonstrates
gross assets of $50, 761 $40 so, and tota
liabilities of $54, 1874, $40 OF. making the sur.

The American game Of base ball appears
to be making considerable Roadway in Eng

for the opening of the approaching season
Liverpool especially seems to be worked up
on the sport. The following from the Sport
ing Express shows the condition of affairs
at that point: 1.-THE time is now approach
ing when clubs will be making preparations
for the coming season. Il is, therefore,
necessary to find out the exact rules under
which the game will be played. Strenuous
efforts are being made to form clubs which
will play under the American code, which
is rapidly gaining ground in the country.
The popularity of the American rule Is un-
doubted. Such places as Cardiff and
Gloucester, which have always remained
true to the English game, are determined
on playing under American rules this
season. II such is the case, why should
Liverpool be last in the matter2 We have.
without doubt, base ball players here who,
if they had few weeks training under the
foreign system, would be strong enough to
win all before them, professionals included.
We have gone 80 far as to adopt the name
Of base ball, which is certainly admitting
that there is something in name; we have
also adopted many of their rules"
