cases of piles, and then. by contracting the

Until two years ago no such remedy had
been produced but at that time a SUPPOSE
tory was placed upon the market. which has
since proven itself to be the long-sought
permanent cure for this common and dis
tressing trouble. 1t has rapidly become ia

ENCOURAGING PROGRESS
SITUATION WITH SOUTHERN RAIL-
WAYS GREATLY IMPROVED.
RebeIIfous Roads Forced Into Line by
the Western Passenger Association
Express Business Improving.

Seldom is there a day that there are not
representatives of Southern roads in the
city. Without exception these gentlemen
speak in glowing terms of the improve
ment in general conditions in the Southern
States in the last few years, and acknowl-
edge that this Improvement is largely due
20 new Northern capital and new manage
ments taking hold of railroads there The
Southern Railway is one example. This
road, through a consolidation of small weak
lines and the placing of the consolidated
lines under an aggressive and progressive
management, has become one of the i'm
pcrtant systems of the country. It's earn
ing power has been greatly increased, its
physical condition so improved as to make
it standard road in every respect. In no
part of the country is there finer equipment
in service than on the Southern roads and
their time schedules compare very favor
ably with those of Northern lines. The
South Carolina road went into the hands of
a receiver in 1894 was bought in by the first
mortgage bondholders and reorganized with
Charles Parsons, formerly of the New York
d New England, as its president. So great
ly has the property been improved that it's
bonds which, in 1894, sold at 60 cents on the
dollar are now quoted at double that sum.
The Louisville 81 Nashville is another road
which has made rapid strides in the past
few years, and with the Illinois Central
getting south of the Ohio river wonderful
changes have been wrought The Queen &
Crescent is another which, under the skill
full handling of S. M FELTON,, has come to
be one of the best railroad properties of
the South and probably in it's physical con-
dition is the best road south of the Ohio
river.
Studying the earnings of railroads in
March and in the three months ended
March 81, the Financial Chronicle finds the
Southern railroads doing rather better than
most lines. Taking the Southern Railway
as a type it is found to have increased its
gross earnings in March by $1!2,114; its net
earnings by $94 521. In the three months
ended March 81 its gross earnings We're in
creased by SAG 044; net by $197 906. The in
crease began, it seems late in February and
has continued in April and May. Much the
same is to be said for the Chesapeake q
Ohio Louisville & Nashville and other roads
similarly situated.

Whipped Into Line.

A meeting of the lines of the Western
Passenger Association was held in Chicago
yesterday for the purpose of considering the
report of the executive committee of the
association on the work it has accomplished
since its formation. To the committee has
been intrusted the formation of the local
associations, the management of the emf
grant bureau in New York and other mat
tiers of like nature. The report of the COM
mittee was presented to the general meet
ing by Chairman White, of the executive
committee, and the reading of the report
occupied a greater part of the meeting.
The work of the committee was too large
to be considered at one sitting and an adj
journment was taken until to-day. The
most unsatisfactory portion of the report
of Chairman White was that relating to
membership. So far only two of the trans
Union Paciffc-have become members of the
association and three of the Chicago-St
Paul lines are still on the outside. Some
discussion was had as to the best method
of getting these lines to become members,
but no formal action was taken. 1t viii
probably be determined that no line which
is not a member of the association as a
whole can have the benefits of the local
associations, the emigrant bureau and the
clergy and mileage ticket bureaus. All or
the roads are unit in declaring that they
receive much benefit from all OF these
bureaus and all of them are willing TO be
come members of them, but object to join
ing the general association. 1t will without
question be determined that road which
is not a member of the association in one
thing cannot be a member IN another II
must be all or nothing.
Later-The Union Pacific, Denver y Rio
Grande and Rio Grande Western railways
have agreed to join the Western Passenger
Association This puts all the roads be-
tween Chicago and Salt Lake and ogden,
Utah, in the association.

at the same time pay the interest on the
Chicago division sterling loan of 1871. These
properties will have been in the hands of
the receivers for fifteen months June /
and they have received the earnings thereof
only for that period, while interesting fall
ing due June ! on the Chicago. division
bonds will be the third interest INSTALL
ment making eighteen months interest to
be met out of fifteen months earnings.
The receivers have paid two interest in
stallments and will have in their hands sur
plus earnings for this division applicable
to the payment of this interest $4,000, or
possibly more, but not sufficient to pay the
interest at the time, and they do not feel
that they can pay this interest until the
same is earned by the division. Therefore
il will necessarily remain in default for
limited period of time until the earnings
of the Division will have amounted to Suth-
cent TO discharge the interest. For the
same reason the receivers do not intend
to pay the interest upon the terminal mort
gage bonds which fall due on June l."

Much Interest I'm His Trial ON n
Charge OF Barn burning.


William Edwards, a dapper-looking col
ored man charged with the crime of arson,
is on trial before jury in the Criminal
Court. Edwards, until his arrest about a
month ago, was employed as coachman in
the family of Henry Fraser, Of North Del
aware street. April q last the barn of JUS
tus c. Adams, adjoining the Fraser stable,
was burned and Edwards was indicted by
the grand jury on this specific charge. The
case is attracting a good deal of attention
from residents of the North Side.
Although the evidence is purely of a cir
cumstantial character, the prosecutor in his
statement yesterday declared the chain
was complete. Sam Mcclure is one of the
main witnesses for the State. He testified
that he shot at man the night Mr.. Ad-
ams's stable was fired. He claims to have
seen man crouching on the shed of the
Adams stable a moment or two before he
discovered the fire. The man sprang from
the shed as the Waterman shot at him.
running south on Delaware street. The
Waterman claimed the figure of the man he
shot at correspOnded pretty accurately with
that of Mr. Fraser's cOachman. Patrolman
Conklin, one of the witnesses, claims to
have investigated the premises after the
fire. He discovered a burnt match near
one Of the windows. COnklin said Edwards
came up while they were discussing the
match and remarked: It's a wonder
somebody wouldn't be caught for this
work" The officer replied that some one
would be caught soon enough.
Philip NJ. Watson, stepson of Henry
Fraser, was awakened the night of the
fire and hurried to the stable. He called
loudly for William" meaning the coach
man. who always slept in the barn. The
coachman did not respond, and young Wat
son, with his father, set about to get the
horses from the stable. Edwards, the
coachman, turned up while they were thus
employed and assisted in getting out the
horses.

An ExDressmun,s views.

The New York Times recently published
interviews with l.. c. Weir, president of the
Adams Express Company, and G. S. Thayer,
OF the United States Express Company, on
the business conditions, and in its Tuesday
issue published a lengthy interview with
H. S. Julier, general manager of the Ameri-
can Express Company, who is one of the
best informed men on business matters in
the country. having a large acquaintance
with business men both East and West.
Mr. Julier is quoted as saying: Business
is holding its own very well. There is GER
tainly no retrogression. But on the other
hand there is yet too much uncertainty to
permit of any great progress Things are
still as they have been-about at q stand
still. And. excepting the greater confidence
among business men, ] do not see much
change in the situation. That there is con-
fidence cannot be doubted. Everywhere
people believe that improvement is shortly
to come, and / think in all parts of the
country you will find that business men
are ready 10 go ahead in their respective
lines as soon as the uncertainties are re-
moved from the situation There is a wait
ing Dispositions disposition TO be hopeful,
but to hesitate for the time being. Per-
sonally / think that the currency question
is lust as essential to permanent prosperity
as is the tariff. / am inclined TO think we
shall see considerable Improvement in bust
ness just as soon as this tariff bill is passed
and made a law.
