FAST FREIGHT SERVICE
TRAINS NOW RUN ON FORMER PAS
SENGER TRAIN SCHEDULES.
Criticism of Railway Inspection
Misunderstanding as To Shipments
of PerishabIe Freights.

but few business men," said represent
ative of one of the fast freight lines, real
ize what the fast freight service now fur
nishes for them in the matter of receiving
goods with dispatch. When L entered this
service passenger trains were not run faster
than are our fast freight trains now. When
L commenced eightyfour to ninety-two
hours were considered good time. Now the
Union line, the Merchants Dispatch and
some of the other lines deliver goods in
Indianapolis in forty-five hours, and one
OF the Union line trains has been changed
recently TO make the run from New York
to Indianapolis in forty-four hours and ff-
teen minutes. Equally good time is made
by the nOrth-and-south lines 1t is but a
few years that the time of passenger trains
between Nashville and Chicago was thirty
six hours, the time the fast freight trains
are now scheduled, and for years the sched-
ule time of passenger trains between In
dianapolis and Chicago was ten hours, the
scheduled time of the freight trains by
either of the three lines, and to st. Louis
twelve hours was for many years the
schedule of passenger trains, and either line
with its fast freight service now covers the
distance in twelve hours, and often in less
time. 1t is but two years since the faster
1LelSHl service began, ana the time under
the faster schedules has been made as read
lily as under the slower, and, if anything
there has been a greater exemption from
accident than with other freights, one rea-
son being that for these fast runs the better
class of cars are selected, and as much
of the train safety requires is equipped
with air brakes, so that there is less time
required 20 stop train. The question now
is, 21aS the highest rate of speed for freight
trains been attained? The tendency is now
for heavier and faster locomotives and for
that reason shall not be surprised if the
time of freight is cut down TO thirty-sx
hours, New York to Indianapolis"
One thing, said J. q. Hicks, general
yardmaster of the Big -Four at this point,
that has greatly expedited the movement
of freights is the dispatch with which the
trains are handled at divisional or terminal
points. AT such a point as Indianapolis
formerly freight train from the East was
from three TO four hours getting through
the city While now the train arrives at
BrightWood, the engine is detached and an
other engine of the St. Louls division is at
tached, and, if the train is properly made
up, there is no more delay than there is

BOYS say They stole the whisky.

1t was learned yesterday that the four
small boys who were found drunk Sunday
evening were guilty of housebreaking and
petty larceny. The boys at first claimed
that man had given them whisky out of d
bottle and the severe illness of the boys
led to the belief that the whisky was
by the relatives of the boys and if the
man who supplied them with whisky had
been found he would have been handled
Yesterday the boys were rearrested and
charged with stealing the whisky which
made them drunk One of the boys told
the story He said they pried open win
dow of a South Meridian-street wholesale
house and stole two quart bottles of
whisky. They drank one of them and hid
the other under a culvert on South Ala
alma street The bottle was found where
the boy said it was hidden.

Railroad, yesterday filed objections at
Baltimore to the issuance of the 81. 345. $50
in receivers certificates recently asked for
by the receivers for the purpose of pur-
chasing new rolling stock for the system.
The main points in the objection are that
the receivers have no right to improve the
line, their duty being merely to maintain it
as they found it; that the new eouiDment
is not needed on the main line and that
it is not equitable to pay for 1t out of

Inspections of Railways.

While it may be all right for the officials
of railroad to inspect two hundred or
three hundred miles of track in one day
and they may be able to form some idea of
its condition, one of the great absurdities
is for the railroad commissioners appoint
ed by the State to inspect railroad proper
ties of such States to think that thety can
inspect roads in the same manner and be
of any service to the State or be able to
discover the needs of the road. The Boston
Herald says:
The writer remembers making a run
with the commissioner over a division of
the tItchburg in 1896 when the indicator
OF the special car placed at the service of
the board showed a speed OF fifty-four miles
an hour over the greater part of the route

LAND MONEY CANNOT BUY.
Trinity Corporation and Some of the
Property 1t Holds.
New York Herald.


The Rev. DR.. Morgan Dix, rector of Trim
ity parish New York city, tells the Church
Economist that many offers had been made
to the Trinity corporation to purchase the
old st. Paul's churchyard on Broadway,
between Fulton and NeSey streets, for bus
mess purposes. Several years ago the Stock
Exchange tried to buy it, and more recent
ly great railroad corporation made ad-
vances for the property. But it will not
be sold" said Dr. Dix, lat least not while
the persons now in control of Trinity's af-
cents has ever been placed on this property
1t is priced and guarded from a sentiment
of reverence and love"
This remark of the distinguished rector
of Trinity, says the Church Investor is
significant, in view of the suggestion ad-
Vanced at a recent assembling of clergy
men in this city that If Trinity would
dispose of some of it's valuable unpro-
ductive property it would be enabled TO en-
large its field of usefulness" especially in
the matter of helping other churches
More than sixty Protestant Episcopal
churches in this country have received
financial aid from Trinity corporation, and
it has come to be regarded as quite the
proper thing that whenever a church of
that denomination runs into debt it shall
turn to Trinity for help. Trinity's income is
believed TO be 100000 q year. and a large
portion of that amount goes in annuitieS
to other churches and to educational insti-
tutiOns.
It has always been the custom of Trinity
to extend a helping hand 10 struggling
churches by carrying a mortgage on the
a small EpiscOpalan congregation buys or
builds a church worth $3G.G00 The mem
berS are able to pay perhaps tWO-thirds
that amount down. Trinity comes to their
relief by advancing the necessary $lUOe0 and
taking a mortgage, on which, however, the
rich corporation never eXacts interest. The
lien is only recorded in order to preserve
Trinitys equity in the properly III case
its use for church purposes ceases.
The fact that there are 50 many poor
churches in need of financial aid is prob
ably responsible for the renewal of the
suggestion that Trinity might greatly in
crease its revenues by putting the historic
and valuable block occupied by St Paui's
TO some commercial use. The city as
