With the transfer of the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad property to the syndicate which
is to control it there is a strong possibility
that even the name of this system will pass
into oblivion. In fact, it might be called
the New York, Chicago & Western, or the
Western Packers Export Railroad Either
of these titles would be far more suitable
than it's present one, for there is every indi-
cation that under the administration Of the
Observation-Disclosures combination the
city of Baltimore will merely become a sta
ton on the road, and the export business it
now enjoys, as we'll as much Of that sent
to Philadelphia will leave the terminus of
the system at Staten island or New York
harbOr. One of the strongest reasons for
this theory Is that the new owners will be
in favor of abolishing the differential freight
rate which Baltimore enjoys against New
York. and which has partly been abolished.
This amounts to 3 cents per hundred pounds
on grain and similar freight, and it is
claimed by shippers that through this New
York city has suffered greatly in it's exports.
Another reason for the change of the
terminus is hat it will give an opportunity
to secure a longer freight haul. The fact
that the Philadelphia division of the BaIti-
more & Ohio is one of its most Improbable
branches is ancient news to railroad and
financial circles. This road, which is nearly
one hundred miles in length and proved to
be one Of the most expensive ever built in
the Eastern section of the United States,
was one of the follies committed by the
Carrots. IL all of the export freight is
shipped from New York and Philadelphia
the increased business over this division, 1t
Is believed, will make it a paying portion
of the system, at least giving it enough earn
1ngs to make its accounts balance on the
debit and credit side at the end of the year.
IT IS calculated that with the improvements
completed the Baltimore & Ohio ought to be
operated at a minimum cost. and that its
freight business should be hauled at nearly
road in this country, not excluding the
Chesapeake q Ohio.

Stock Market Report.

indianapolis, Ind, Feb. %, 1899.
We had good receipts to-day for Monday, but
did not have half enough to fill our orders, and
could have used all the hogs here to-day. We
have always bought 80 per cent. OF all the hogs
here on Mondays. You make mistake to have
your hogs here on Monday unless they are in our
hands, or come in and give us a show to buy
them. Our Eastern customers that we have
bought for the last fifteen to twenty years bought
PSI double decks in Chicago last week, but would
have bought a large portion of them here IL we
could have got them. Our freight is 2 cents less
TO all Eastern points and the time quicker to
many of them. If the Trust would have sold US,
they would have had competition. We have re-
fused to handle cattle and ship them until such
time as we could promise every customer 10
handle them as well as the hogs. We have Sc
cured the services Of Mr.. Hugh Gallice, Of Chi
cago, TO take charge OF our cattle department.
He is a live, up-to-date young man, and grew
up In the business-an excellent judge OF cattle.
and knows just where to place them on the mar
ket. We viii guarantee you perfect satisfaction.
We charge s. for selling straight car, and 300
per head for small lots, and we charge the same
commission for buying, and this is about one-half
OF what the Trust charges. We sell all OF ours
for cash. When the high commission OF the
Trust was established they sold on time.
No man ought to have $50 for selling 100 cattle,
when the work is done in an hour. Consign all
kinds Of stock to us, or come In and give us
show to buy IL. We quote: go TO $50 averages at
$3.50 TO $3S5, and 200 to go averages at S.T21k to
3Uh. and 100 10 1870 at s3.e5 TO s.. TIA; pigs and
light Workers. S355 to $500. All markets were 50
lower to-day. Think this decline will check re-
ceipts and Will likely see stronger market

The Chicago Board Of Trade is making
an objection to the new export rate on corn
recently adopted by the Eastern trunk lines.
That rate makes the price 1879 cents from
the Mississippi river to the seaboard, while
II will be 10 cents from Chicago. The Board
Of Trade alleges tina this will be a violation
of the interstate-commerce law in that it
makes a higher price for the shorter haul.
The railroad men allege for their side of
the case that the l~312-cent rate is only a
proportionate rate for corn from west of the
river, and 1t Is noe a violation of the law,
while the local rate from the river, upon
which the Chicago rate is based, Is 10 cents.
