RAILROAD NEWS.
B. & o Places an Order for Steel
Rails-Two Conductors to Ex-
cursion Trains-Cut Rates
on the Cumberland Gap
Dispatch.

The american of last Sunday says:
The receivers of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, taking advantage of
the cut in the price of steel rails, yes
terday placed an order for $1,000 tons,
to weigh eighty to the yard. This
means at the lowest rate, SIG ton
$8S0,00
OF this amount about 10000 tons are
to be delivered Immediately, to replace
rails in use over the mountains be-
tween Martinsburg and Pittsburg. The
old rails now in use are of the go and
70-pounds to he yard grade, and the
intention is to place the track in first
class condition. The balance of the
rails are to be delivered later in the
season. Fifty-hve thousand tons of
rails, it is estimated, will make over
400 miles of single track.
The receivers of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad have decided that, here.
after, whenever there are excursion
trains on the road, there shall be two
conductors 10 each train. 1t will be
the duty of one of these conductors to
attend to passengers and collect the
tickets, while the other will look after
the running of the train. General Man.
ager Greene has issued the following
order to general superintendents:
"In view of the coming inaugural,
when we will have very large pas.
senger business, the trains should be
fully manned. You are authorized to
put on an extra man on all these extra
trains, who will take the tickets, leav-
ing the regular conductor to give his
full time to the running of the train.
This not only applies to the inau-
guration trains, but to all excursion
trains in the fnture.n
Local railroad circles were consider
ably agitaIed over all official announces
ment of the Norfolk and Western Rail-
way Company that the freight rates
on the Cumberland Gap Dispatch
would be reduced about thirty
five per cent. The reduction goes into
effect tomorrow, Monday The Cum
berland Gap Dispatch operates from
Baltimore over the Baltimore Steam
Packet Company route to Norfolk, and
from that point to the West over the
Norfolk and Western Railway. The
cut affects traffic between Baltimore
and Cincinnati, Louisville and St.
Louis. Railroads in the Joint Traffic
Association will be effected, but
whether they will meet the cut cannot
be learned.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed when the languid exhausted feeling
prevails, when the liver is torpid and slug
gish and the need of a tonic and Alternative
is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more surely

"Life's Fittul Fever" and "Collier's

"Life's Fitful Fever" by Edgar
Fawcett, is quite notable specimen
of the latter day novel-wilh absolute
freedom from dullness and the dryness
of descriptive detail. 1t is story of
American life filled with the turmoil
the crossing, and counter-crossings of
motives and impulses as they really
are. The publisher is p. F. Collier,
523 West Thirteenth street, New

Lying Prophet" by Eden Phillpotts.
1t Is a tale of Cornwall-one of those
tragic chapters in the ''annals of the

peculiar to themselves. A third novel
from the same publishing house will
be 'Dr. Darch's Wife," by Florence
Wardens, strictly uniqe performance.
The author is far above Der subject
more than master of it, These stories
are found in The Fortnightly Library,
published in connection with Golfers

nal, whose staff Is composed of Mayo

viewer and editorial writer; John
Habberton, veteran journalist, author
of "Helen's Babies" Edgar Saltus,
novelist and feuiletOnist; Edgar Faw-
cett, novelist, poet, and literary exqui-
site; and Julian Hawthorne, the orig
iual, forceful, aud always interesting
writer. The weekly service of these
literary stars has made for Golfers

ton. assisted by Miss Adler (soprano) and
Miss Parsons (pianisD. under the auspices
of the Star Course Committee. The box
office will be open for the reserving OF
seats on Tuesday morning.
1t seems almost superfluous to speak of
Remenyi's fame or ability. as he is re-
cognized the world over as one OF the
greatest of living violinists. Remenyi
was born IN Moskolc Hungary. about
1870. His master on the violin twas Jo-
seph Bohm, who also taught the great
Joseph Joachim. During the Hungarian
uprising Remenyi. then quite boy en-
listed as a soldier. and fought braVely
He became aide-de-camp to Gyorgey
when the latter was appointed command
er-in-chief of the Horo army, of Hungary;
and though at that time little lieu
tenant of sixteen summers, Remenyi used
to delight the Old veterans with his music
and make their hearts glad and brave
for the next days fray. After the de-
feat of the insurgents he left his coun-
try. going TO England. Soon after his
arrival he was appointed solo violinist
to the Queen. After returning 10 his
country for a time q entered public lie
making his first American tour In 1878
Since that time he has made tour OF
the entire globe charming the natives OF
the Sandwich Islands. Australia, Dutch,
Indies Java, India. Madras, China,
Japan. and South Africa; then returning
to Europe for final tour.
During his triumphal tour the press
of the country has teemed with the most
favorable comments.
1t is said Of Remenyi that he possesses
the Oldest violins in the world. their
value being estimated, for which he pays
insurance, at $4,000. He also has
viola, for which he has been offered
$500.
Mr.. Remenyi was recently the guest of
Mr.. Kohlsatt. of Chicago, proprietor OF
the Chicago Times-Herald and Chicago
Evening Post. After dinner 1t was sug-
gested that il would be pleasant thing
TO call up President-elect Mckinley over
the long-distance telephone. and have Mr..
Remenyi play for Mr.. and Mrs McKin-
ley. So Canton and Mr.. Mckinley were
called up, and the reply came that Mrs.
Mckinley and the President-elect would
be delighted. The great master then
placed himself in front of the receiver
and played two numbers. The reply
came from Canton that they had heard 1t
perfectly. and were enraptured with the
beautiful strains. They thanked the
great artist over and over for the great
musical treat. Mr.. Remenyi is planning
a two-years' trip 10 South America. start
ing next April
The indications are that Remenyi will
be greeted by a large audience. The
entire house will be placed on resorved-seat
sale. and only $50 single seats can be sold.
as the course membership OF this year Is
very large. Season-ticket holders who de-
sire to make certain OF extra seats. and
persons who are not seasOn-ticket holders,
chould purchase exchange tickets.
