A meeting of the board of directors
of the Pennsylvania company will be
held on Tuesday to take such action as
is necessary for changing the bylaws.
1t was the intention to have this change
made before this time. but it was found
impossible to do SO. The reason for the
prospective action upon the bylaws
is that change is desired in the or
ganization of the lines of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad company west of Pitts
burg. 1t is understood that the change
is to be an important one. There is
likely to be another vice-president ad-
ded to the staff. There are three vice.
presidents now, but as the business of
the line has increased so extensively
Of late it has been deemed advisable to
divide the labOrs of the vice. presidents.
1t is understood that a number of other
important changes are to be made The
Nandalia line. which runs from Indian
apolis to ST. Louis. Terre Haute to st.
Joseph. which gives the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad company an entrance to st.

pany directors were elected members of

quite a change in the board. and that

OUTLOOK IN VERMONT.
The Republican Majority Will Probably 81
Between $4,000 and $4,000.

White River Junction. VT, Aug. 31.-
Greater interest appears to center in
the result of the state election to hv
held in Vermont. tomorrow, than has
been manifested at any period sine,
1850. An active campaign has been
conducted by each Of the TWO leading
political parties ANA almost entirely
upon national issues,
The candidates Of the several parties
for Governor are as follows Majol
Josiah t;rout Of Derby. Republican
Dr. J. Henry Jackson of Barre, Demo
crat; Jos. Battell Of Bipt.n, Populist
Rodney Whittemore of St Alhans
IrohibItionist
The vote this year will be compared
with that Of 1882. the last Presidential
year when the vote for Governor was
as Follows Levi X Fuller. Rep, 3S,9lS
Bradley B. Smalley. Dem, 1926; Ed
ward l.. Allen. 1895; scattering. 22l
Majority for Fuller, 1886,
There is no doubt whatever that tn.
Republican candidate will be elected
Governor this year as usual. the ques-
tiou which arnuses a great degree OF
interest in the result being: What
VIII be his majority"
The Republican majority is vatiously
estimated crom 25ooo. to 50. 900. Sc
large a majority as 20.000 is hardly ex-
pected by getting out Il considerably
large number of stay at homes oi
the party. In certain localities only
about 60 per cent OF the registration
has been pollcd. Candidates of both
of the two leading parties are deservedly
popular.
All things considered the probability
is that the Republican majority viii

money. and Will doubtless be SO looked
