The recent Incorporation in Ohio OF
the Southeastern Ohio Black Diamond,
Belt and Terminal Railroad Company,
which propose to construct main line
of railroad from Ripley Brown county,
Ohio, To Powhatap, Belmont county,
with numerous side lines, is OF special
interest here on account OF the fact that
II viii reach Wheeling through con
nectiOn at Powhatan with the ohio Val
ley road, which is controlled and opera
ted by the Pennsylvania Company,
Local officials OF the latter company
were asked as 10 the plans or the Black
Diamond promoters, but were unable 10
throw any light on the project, which
is headed by Albert Il. Boone, OF Zanes'
vile,
Ripley, the western terminus OF the
line, is a small town on the Ohio river
about seventy-fve miles above Cincin'
natl, and is not ton Of any great I'M
portance commercially. Powhatan, the
eastern terminus. is an even smaller
town, and the only Importance 1t can
have In connection with the proposed
railroad IL the fact that II Is the lower
terminus Of the Ohio Valley road, which
is feeder for the Cleveland 81 Pitts
burgh road, part of the Pennsylvania
system. Some people have thought that
the proposed road 10 belng encouraged
by the Pennsylvania people.
The route traversed Is rich In coal, oil,

In the east n report is ahoat that j.

terests are trying to control the blum

the Baltimore & Ohio system is said

This movement, says the Cleveland

able either to consolidation or else a
close traffic agreement, and to insiders
the moves which are now being made
on the great railway checker board are
most important and far-reaching, and
when fully developed are sure to exert
a most potent influence on the future

cite situation through dIctatlon Of the
policy OF the Reading, Lehigh Valley,

AUTOMATIC coupLERs,

From the first of next January all the
railroads of the country must have their
freight cars equipped with automatic
couplers, and enough cars must be
equipped with train brakes TO permit
the speed to be controlled by the engine
man, unless the interstate commerce
commission grants relief; and as 1898
draws near many companies are send,
ing petitions TO the commission for the
extension OF the time within which they
may equip their cars. As many roads
have, In consequence OF the depression
in business during the past three years
found II hard to equip cars as rapidly
as was desirable. 1t Ii likely that the
commission will be disposed TO grant
some extension, though the members
have not yet given any expression OF
opinion on the matter. A hearing will
be given at Washington, December /,
at which the railroads, the public and
the employees will be heard.

In the event OF war it should be rernern-
bered that the ultimate military strength
OF Greece would probably be increased by

coerce the governments OF those states

LECTURE ON WATERFALLS.

The last, but one, Of the course ofiectures
on "Hydrnlogy,' under the auspices of the
joint commission of the scientific societies
of Washington, was delivered yesterday
afternoon BY Prof Martus r. Campbell
at the National Museum.
Mr. Campbell was introduced by Prof.
McGee as one Of the younger generation
of geologists, q man who grew up in
the service of the Geological Survey.
The subject, The Waterfalls of the
United States was illustrated with nu-
merous views showing many OF the falls
and cataracts in various parts of the eoun-
try. 1t was noticeable that waterfalls
were more numerous in the western than
in the eastern part OF the United States.
This, he said, was due to the fact that
the topography of the West was compara-
lively new when compared TO that of
the East.
Prof. Campbell also gave a very interest
ing history of the formation OF rivers, and
how in their natural courses falls were
created.
Among the views exhibited were many
of the Potomac in the vicinity Of Wash

seventy million people, or such a matter
suspended the activities of their daily vo-
cations and hung in breathless suspense
uuon the news from distant mountain
town, where two splendid human animals
were engaged in a pleasant endeavor to
reduce each other TO pulp, perhapsit would
be invidious TO say that interest in such
an event was greater within the sacred
precincts of clubs than il was elsewhere.
Yet l take that to be the fact, and the
reason for it is found in the greater
appreciation Of everythingthatisg is grand and
beneficial to the highest interests of the

Ben Steyens-The so-called syndicate
is aid, rather than a harm. to the pro-
fession. 1t facilitates booking, avoids
cIashing OF dates by similar attractions,
avoids long jumps, and saves time and
money to the theatrical manager.
