The cry that was continually going
up from republican ranks that the new
tariff law would not create sufficient

of the government has been thoroughly
disproved by the receipts of the last
few months. Tariff legislation has
not created the present financial strin
gency. Paste that in your hat.

American Rails and Rolling stoc,r.

The statement is made that the
weight of the rail used on the Ameri-
can roads has been increasing steadily
during the last twenty years This
can be attributed to the increasing
weight of rolling-stock cars of every
description. Twenty years ago the
maximum capacity of a freight car was
from 10000 to $4,000 pounds, while at
present it is from 90, 900 to so, 600: some
cars, in fact, having been constructed
with freight-carrying capacity of
100000 pounds. In regard to engines.
one of thirty tons was some years ago
regarded as of fair size, but they are

tons weight. Until the last ten or

ofrails was tifty-six pounds to the yard.

would assist Maj. Guthrie in
chalking out a level between gold

failed to appear, not because the
hot weather had melted their elo

their wardrobes. At least this
was the supposition.
Maj. Guthrie spoke in the fore,
noon for an hour or more to about
200 people, devoting himself en-.
tirely, to the financial question,
giving a lucid explanation of his
view Of it. Notwithstanding the
welting heat, which prevented a
larger attendance, the Major held
