AMONG THE RAILWAYS.
A Tired Feeling Caused by the Re
duced Rates-News.


Speaking of the present freight
situation, caused by the slash in
rates by the Santa Fe and the Rock
Island roads, a Houston dispatch
dated October %, in the Galveston
News winds up as follows:
General Traffic Manager Schrie-
Yer, OF the Southern Pacific, head
quarters in New Orleans, and Cen
eral Freight and Passenger Agent
Martin, of the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass, headquarters at San
Antonio, have been here all day,
and the representatives of the diff
ferent lines have had their heads
so closely together that one could
not wedge a mustard plaster be-
tween them. That they are all
anxious and nervous cannot be de-
MED This slashing afflicts them
with tired feeling, and they al
ready have yearning to meet in
some secluded spot and fix up
things. 1t may be predicted that
this is exactly what will be done
very shortly, and that any cutting
which may now ensue will not go
to the quick"
TWO CARS DERAILED.
A wreck occurred on the South
ern Pacific at Stella, small sta
ton about ten miles west of Hous-
ton, yesterday morning. Two cars
of freight train were derailed and
a part of the track torn up. 1t was
reported that three tramps were on
the train and were killed, but the
report was not verified by those in
position to know. The cars were
replaced on the track with little
delay, and the track repaired, and
the trains will run as usual,

many original Investigations that gained for
him both wealth and fame. In late years
Prof. Ilorsford turned his studies in the
direction of cartography and the history of

amusement for his leisure hours, we sns-

Of Investigations, as compared with his love
Of chemistry. With that gentle Al iaeity
for which Massachusetts historical stadens
have long been celebrated in appropri-
a,ing wha.ever perCiined to the credit and
honor of the early history of Maine as their

But profound historical students never for
