FAST MAIL SERVICE
COMPARISONS BETWEEN WANDER
BILT AND PENNSYLVANIA LINES.
Mileage Books ON Trafns-An Excel
lent Time to Purchase Equipment
Prices for Work Very Low.

Several articles have appeared OF late in
Eastern and Western newspapers about fast
mail service over the Vanderbilt and the
Pennsylvania lines, and both interests are
making sharp fight for securing larger
volume of the postal through service. The
Vanderbilt lines. in connection with the Big
-Four. have made some gain the last two
years In this direction, and expect 10 still
further increase their earnings from this
source. A study of the official time tables
shows that on the Vanderbilt lines the
fastest trains run are the special limited
mail between New York and Chicago and
the fast mail known as No. II, or
the Southwestern limited. over the Big Four
route. The special knitted mail makes the
run from New York TO Chicago, a distances
Of S35 miles. in Is hours and 80 minutes, ami
the Southwestern limited makes the run
from New York to ST Louis, a distance
Of 1,176 miles, IN 81 hours and 80 minutes.
The Pennsylvania New York and Chi
cago limited, which carries the Chicago mall
makes the run from New York 10 Chicago
In q hours and 40 minutes, difference Of
three hours and six minutes IN favor Of
the Pennsylvania. The fast limited mail No.
II, running between New York and st.
Louis over the Pennsylvania, which Is one
OF the heaviest of mail trains, makes the
run OF 1,o63 miles in 80 hours and 10 minutes,
and no effort Is made to make fast time
thentic and ought TO be conclusive, and they
show that with a heavy train Of seven
mail cars the Pennsylvania beats the time
of the fastest train on the Vanderbilt lines
between New York and st. Louis. Under
the schedule which goes into effect next
Sunday the time between New York and
st. Louis over the Vanderbilt lines and the
Big Four will be shortened, and, as 1t has
larger mileage to cover, the speed OF the
Vanderbilt man train will be faster than
that of the Pennsylvania and the Vandalia.

The Car-BuiIding Industry.

The large orders for cars recently awarded
by the Pennsylvania line, the Baltimore &
Ohio. the Lehlgh Valley and some of the
Northwestern roads have demonstrated the
correctness of the statement recently made
that there has never been q time when cars
and locomotives could be purchased at as
good advantage. No sooner does 1t become
known that cars are wanted than the Off
Gals Of the roads wishing to place contracts
are besieged by builders. The result is that
railroad companies have been able to place
orders at prices which excite general COM
ment because OF the close figuring made
by the car works. Even TO experienced men
in the trade 1t Is said the prices on some Of
the work were lower than IL was supposed
IL could be done for. 1t is argued from this
ments have In some way been able TO re-
duce the cost OF operating very materially
recently, because Ii is said that not one
OF the orders had been taken In which there
Is not fair profit. and yet they were all at
unusually low prices
The receivers and directors OF the Balt-
more & Ohio company are coigratulating
in placing orders. While they have been
able TO get their cars at good price, how
ever, they have been less successful, 1t is
stated, in placing their orders for locomotives
for larger profits. The result has led the
Baltimore & Ohio MANAGEMENT temporarily
to postpone the placing OF these orders. 1t

The company has something like two or
three hundred old engines, which can be
repaired to advantage.

the newspapers. In the trial Of the second

would subject Judge McCray 10 criticism.

in my court. Two or three jurors believed
