An Economical Rail.

Chief Engineer w. T. Manning of the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad, has invent
ed a new rail that experts say has
many points OF interest to railroad
owners, the principal one being its
economical feature 1t is we'll known
that rails wear rapidly on curves and
where these are short and traffic heavy,
the cost of renewal is very large. Man.
ming has evolved a section, which, he
asserts, will reduce the cost 81 per cent
per ton per year. He adds materially
to the life of the rail by placing addi-
tional metal in the head and on the
side upon which the wear comes.
The new rail win be given thorough
test on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad,
the receivers having ordered 1000 tons
from the Carnegie Steel company. The
Pittsburg & Western have also ordered
500 tons

REVIEW OF SPECULATION.
Present Outbreak Due to a Reckless
Public.

=
New York, Jan. 27.-Bradstreets
financial review tomorrow will say:
One of these speculative outbreaks
which occur at regular intervals in the
history of commercial countries is now
in full progress in the United States,
with Wall street as the scene for its
present manifestations. The week has
witnessed further advances OF the
kind which only occur when the public
comes into the market almost en-
masse and purchases eagerly and even
recklessIy. This has caused the
transactions in stocks to assume di-
mensiens never before seen in this
market. The dealings have been eX-
cited, especially on Monday morning,
when the rush of buying orders at
the market" We're such as to cause
wild advances in some stocks and not
a little temporary confusion. The
mechanism of the stock exchange and
OF the street at large have, however,
worked WELL the stock clearing sys-
TEN being in no small degree RESPONSE
bic for this fact.
Money continues to be exception
ally easy, there being no symptoms
whatever of the hardening of interest
rates. which usually appeared on
former occasions when extremely ac-
tive speculation has developed. This
exceptional state of affairs is due no
doubt to the circumstances that our
market, in contrast to its position in
1880, or in the other blooms" of the
past, is not now borrowing money
abroad with which TO carry on the
current speculation, but is actually
lending large amounts to London and
the continental cities. It may be noted
that while London follows the pro-
ceedings here with great interest and
has even shown q. sympathetic tend
ency toward increased speculative
activity on its own account, it has
been on the whole q seller OF our Sc
curities, or to put the case in another
way, prices here have advanced so
much and rapidly that London has not
kept pace with us and arbitr2ge opera
tions involving the buying Of American
stocks in London and their resale here
has resulted in the shipment of con-
siderable amounts of securities from
Europe to New York.
The controlling factor in the market
has, however, been the continued in
crease of speculative purchasing orders
from the public, not only in New York
but throughout the country. Wall
street commission houses have had an
influx of such business to an extent
hitherto unknown and in many cases
their facilities have been also over
whelmed by the detail work which it
involved It is. however, a notable cir
cumstance that as a rule firms of this
class, which naturally profit by the
wholesale entrance of the public into
the market, have generally been re-
commencing conservatism and
profit taking to their customers. In
fact the street has appeared to be
somewhat backward. While the public
presents such decided evidences OF
speculative confidence. There has, of
course, been heavy realizing from time
to time. and not q little shifting of the
public's buying from one part of the
list TO another.

Railroad Notes.

Mr. Eccles went north yesterday.
The "Pudd' nhead Wilson" company
Went east over the Western last night.
Local and eastern lines were hustling
for the trade Of discharged soldiers
yesterday, about fifty of whom left for
the east last night.
Ex-Superintendent Larry Malloy Of
Cheyenne has gone to Denver where. it
is said he has secured position
on one of the roads running out Of that
city.

We're smashed to pieces in the disa5-
trous wreck at Sunol a few weeks ago,

The Twenty second infantry left
Fort Crook on the evening of the 26th,
and are due to arrive here over the Rio
Grande Western Sunday. The soldiers
are going to San Francisco, and travel
in two sections, one Of seven cars, the
other of nine.
Assistant superintendent Charles
CulrosS of Laramie has taken a leave
of absence and has gone to his old home
in Canada to spend a vacation. Train
master J. w. Hay of Green River has
been placed in charge of the Fifth and
Sixth districts during the absence Of
Mr.. Culross.
Just now the officials of the Wyom-
ing division are puzzled to know what
has broken up a piece of track four
miles in length just east Of Laramie.
Several months ago it was discovered
that the rails were breaking. An in
vestigation was made, but the cause
was not learned. The track was re-
paired, but the rails continued to break
The track was then rebuilt with new
ties and rails and this work was only
completed two weeks ago. At the
present time the rails are breaking
faster than ever before and the officials
are nonplussed. Some advance the idea
that the big 1,600-class engines are
pounding the track to pieces, While
others say that train wreckers are try
ing to wreck a train. 1t is more prob
able, however, that the roadbed is not
solid and when the big engines pass
over the piece of track the rails spring
and are broken.

What is paradoxically described as
the biggest little yard in the country is
that of the Union Pacific at Ogden.
Although there are only about sixteen
miles of trackage, including the union
depot companys system, over which
the Union Pacific engines ply, the bust
ness handled is said TO exceed by far
that of any other yard in the country,
size considered. On an average there
are thirty men employed, although at
times there are fifty, and the number
of cars handled by them each month
averages between 20,0G0 and $4,000. The
yardmaster is ]. H. Mccoy, who was
