The trade conditions are much the same

The changes in values are few, and there

considerable life TO the wholesale grocery

The sugar market although not advanced

also is in better tone as TO prices, not

Extensive improvements Planned.

The Pennsylvania has spent millions of
dollars on the lines east of Pittsburg in the
past few years. and now the management
proposes to expend large sums on its line
west of Pittsburg. The Pittsburg Post
says that among other improvements on
the Panhandle three bad curves will be cut
out. These are near the Pennsylvania and
West Virginia state line. A tunnel and a
deep cut will be necessary to give a
straight line from Hanlin down to Collier
yards. Over this straight stretch Of tracks
trains can be run at an unlimited speed
with no danger. West of the Summit cut,
where the great main line of the Pittsburg,
Fort Wayne * Chicago crosses the water
shed and descends toward the central Ohio
valley, there are a number of bad curves.
These are to be modified or eliminated so
as to have a high-speed track between
Summit cut and Alliance. AS the western
lines are called upon almost daily to make
up time lost east of Pittsburg il has be-
come necessary to improve these roads, as
ii is a frequent occurrence for the fast
trains to leave Pittsburg for the West two
to four hours late, and after leaving Pitts
burg il is a race against time until ST.
Louis is reached One of the trains from
Bowerstown tunnel TO Dennison and from
miles an hour. On the almost dead level
track between Dennison and Newark a
sixty-mile- an-hour pace is maintained. At
Indianapolis the Vandalia bitches on one of
the big Schenectady engines with eighty
inch wheels and the train is rushed over
crossings and water, and from the Wabash
watershed down to Kahokia creek an
eighty mile-an-hour pace is often main
