RAILROAD NOTES.

A correspondent of the New York
Tribune, writing of open car windows
and the disagreeable draught from the
same, suggests that screens. similar to
those used in sleeping cars, be provided
for each coach window, and that only
trainmen be allowed to place or remove
them. a lady writing to the same
paper suggests original tactics by the
person annoyed: simply raise your
umbrella or parasol in front of you; so
that the wind, cinders, dust and smoke
blow from your umbrella on the back
of the neck of the person who sits by
the window in front of you. A very
few minutes suffice to convince this
person that the wind is blowing harder
than he thought. and is very disagree
able and uncomfortable. so down goes
the window, and also the umbrella, with
a quiet smile of qualification and con-
tent with the result of self-protection."
A railway with wooden rails 50 feet
long, 8 inches wide and s inches deep.
secured by 1S-inch wooden pins to
wooden splicing pieces four feet long,
placed under the joints, is being built
by the Avon Park Transportation Com
pany, from Avon Park, Fla, to Holmes
City, on the South Florida Division of
the Plant railway system, distance Of
3S miles.
The gain in Ontario railway earnings
continues from week to week. The re-
port for the third week in this month
shows an increase of nearly $4,000 over
the same week in 1894, and nearly $1O,-
900 over 1893. The deficit for the year
so far, as compared with 1894 is now
only a little over S60,000, and bids fair
to be entirely wiped out by the end of
the year.
During the last year Russia built the
greatest number of miles of new rail-
road In Europe-51S miles; England the
least-224 miles. The average rate of
speed per hour for fast express trains
was: England, 51.75 miles; Germany.
5l.25 miles; France, 49.SS miles; Bel
GUM, 45.O4 miles: Holland 4i.73 miles;

miles.
Traffic over the Lehigh Valley rail-
road is growing to be enormous. On
Thanksgiving day 147 trains passed
East and West over the Lehigh Divis-
ion, says the Wilkes Barre News
Dealer. 1t was one of the heaviest
traffic days in the roads history. There
were 81 trains of coal and freight that
passed East, and % passenger trains.
Just 1170 cars of coal were hauled East,
and 625 of freight, while westward there
| were carried 347 loaded cars of freight,
and 1854 empty coal cars. On a four
car wheel basis there was hauled East
yesterday more than $4,000 tons of coal,
and about half that amount Of freight.

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS
Stocks and Bonds.

NEW YORK. Nov. 30.-The feature Of
the stock market today was the sharp
demand to cover short contracts In the
industrials. There was a perfect rush
to cover in sugar and the stock rose
from 100ss to 102A. Chicago gas first
fell to 81 and later rose to 63E. Dis
tillers were also in better request and
advanced v a u. Near the close the
demand from the bears was less urgent
and the industrials receded u Y. The
railway list opened weak but when the
industrials advanced a rally ensued. In
the last hour. however, weakness set in
again and prices declined Y to Y. There
was some pressure to sell the grangers.
The shipment Of $l,75O.OO0 gold had no
effect on the market which closed ir-
regular. Net changes show advances of
u al ss in the industrials and declines
of Y a 1s per cent. in the active rail-
waylist. Total sales al 900 shares.

THE WOMAN REPORTER
Promises to Figure Largelyin the Durant Case. What She Is Expected to
 Testify.

San Francisco, Oct. 12.-The prime sen- sation in the Durant case developed when District Attorney Barnes questioned the prisoner regarding statements he Is al- legged to have made in confession to Miss Cunningham, the reporter. If Miss Gun ningham on the stand repeats statements she has already made to the authorities she will swear that Durant told her at the jail that he had seen Blanche La mont in the grasp of two men on the sec ond landing of the belfry of Emanuel church on the afternoon of April 8. She is further expected to state that she asked him who the men were and that he answered that he did not care at that time to say, though the names were men, toned in the statement of the case pre- pared by him, which was then in his possession.
 These statements Miss Cunningham ayers, were given under pledge of se- crecy. Furthermore, according to the story this lady Is expected to give, Du- rant on one occasion asked her if he had not better confess all and throw himself on the mercy of the court. This story. like many others, may fall to eventuate, but the line of cross-examination fol- lowed by the district attorney would indi- cate that the prosecution has something more substantial than rumor to work on.

DELEGATES RESTED YESTERDAY
Governor Bullock Is Better-The Missionary Board Transacts Important Business
 in the Evening.

Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 12.-The dele gates to the Episcopal convention took Il whole day today instead of the usual half Saturday holiday for the purpose of vis- iting Fairabault and it's institutions. Two trains were required to carry the party, which numbered nearly 1000, and includ- ed large number of the members of the woman's auxiliary convention.
 After brief service at the cathedral the visitors returned to this city at ' o'clock
 The condition of Ex-Governor Bullock Of Georgia, who is suffering from erysip- elas, is better this evening, although it is doubtful whether he will be able to take his seat in the convention for a week.
 More of the delegates, especially from the south, are suffering from the same complaint, said to be caused 2. by the change of climate.
 The adjourned meeting of the mission ary board was called to order at 8 D. m., Bishop Jones of Albany presiding.
 Reports from committees were called, but none were ready Rev. Gregory Lines of Connecticut submitted resolu- ton indorsing the church missionary magazine, the Spirit of Missions, and spoke briefly as to the use and impor- tance of the publication. ..f s.#s
 In the discussion following Bishop Graves of China offered resolution that the board call for young men to offer themselves for the African, Chinese and Japanese missionary work.
 Several speakers called the boards at tention to the foreign missionary fields, which resulted in the amendment of the resolution whereby a general call was made for an immediate supply of men and women to foreign missionary work.
 As amended the resolution was adopted that the board be required to use the in- terest of the enrolment fund in the same manner as 1t has been used for the past three years.
 Bishop Scarborough of New Jersey af- firmed that in the collection of funds for missionary and other purposes lack of system was a curse. He closed by offer ing a resolution that the board communi- cate with the woman's auxiliary, which had given the board the magnificent sum of s55,000, and ask them if they have any, choice as to what was done with this fund. The resolution was adopted.
 The sentiment behind this resolution was brought out when the communica- tion of the woman's auxiliary was read. This communication said the $55,000 offer ing was given for the endowment of some Episcopate of missionary Jurisdiction, the income to pay the salary of mis- sionary bishop. The ladies gave the sum, however, to the board of managers with out condition and the resolution adopted was offered with the design of giving the ladies' auxiliary an opportunity to de vote the endowment to the bishop of Alaska
