 Here is the opinion of Baltimore bank official on the new $10 in-God-we- trust-less gold piece;
 Tt is the ugliest coin that any gov ernment ever inflicted on a helpless people. On one side is an un-Indiaa- ike Indian head with something gone wrong with the nose. The face is said to he modelled after that of beautiful Irish girl. There Is not an Irish girl on earth who wouldn't consider 1t an insult to be compared with this thing.
 "on the other side is strange beast intended to represent the American eo gle It looks like a turkey buzzard dressed in pajamas. Its head is too small and it's legs are too long, there fore the latter have been covered with nantalets. No ,icthyosaurus of prehis- torio times was half as repulsive as this beast; no crudely modelled coin of ancient Bablyon or Egypt was as ugly as this coin

Just where the retrencEment policy of the railroads will stop is a question with local railroad men that is agitat- ing them good deal, Yesterday morn ing the officials of the Western Rail- road ordered the annullment of work train and the letting out of forty men employed on that train.
 Figuring on a basis of SIPS day for each of the forty men, some of them getting more than that and some of them less. makes $7.50 week, per man. or $1.200 a month for the forty men.
 A majority of the men on the work train came to Montgomery every Sat- urday night and about SIS out of that $50 was turned loose among the local merchants every Saturday night and between s700 and $500 spent in Mont gomery by these men every month. This makes $s.660 in round numbers that has been taken out of local circu- iation in twelve months by the cutting out of this one work train and the dropping of the forty men from the payroll.
 The dropping of the forty men yes- terday made about ninety men that have been dropped from the payrolls by the Western in and around Mont gomery within the last two months. From this it will be seen that at the lowest estimate $60 a week, $2,400 a month and $2S,S0a a year have been taken away from the Montgomery mer- chants as result of the anti-railroad legislation against the Western alone. This, with the retrenchment policy that the Louisville and Nashville, Atlantic Coast Line and Central of Georgia have been forced to adopt in order to pro- tect themselves will come close to knocking the local merchants out of $100,o00 a year..
 The end has not been reached, for an official of the Western said yesterday that an order had been issued to sta ton agents, trainmen and everybody interested that If there was not enough tonnage at a certain station or stations to fill a complete freight train the x train in question would be held until there was enough to make up train. If the freight in question was perish able. the official continued. it would of course be forwarded on the first train.
 It has been the policy of the West ern to move all freight at once, even if most of the cars in the train had to be Flight" or empty. Now, however, every possible item of expense is being saved and the order has gone out over the road that no freight trains not absolutely necessary shall be run. This necessarily cuts the pay or time" of engineers conductors. firemen, brake men, etc, and as numbers of these men live in Montgomery 1t knocks another hole in the receipts of the local mer- chants.
 Not only the Western alone but all of the roads are cutting things as much as possible. As an illustration the change in the Central of Georgfa's fast freight train. No. 3S. Is an example. This train formerly left Montgomery about o'clock every night for En- faula, Macon, Savannah, etc., but Thursday night the Central officials ore dered the train virtually annulled :. From being a daily train, leaving Montgomery every night. it win leave Montgomery tri-weekly. going out about Wednesday and Friday or Sat- urday nights.

Plentx of nronex nistrihuted.

Probably more real money was put into circulation yesterday than has been the case in Montgomery in some time. the Louisville and Nashville pay ing off all of their employees in Mont gomery, ande the Western paying off their local office force.
 At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the pay car of the Louisville and Nash ville reached the city. coming in as the second division of train No. g. the Birmingham accommodation. Just about the time that the pay car got under the shed a big covered wagon of the Southern Express Company drove up to the baggage room at the North end of the Union Station. No ordinary load was in this wagon. In sacks, bags, bundles etc. was $8.000 in beauti- full yellow gold, bright silver and crisp banknotes. These bags and bundles were carried over to the pay car, and the liquidafing officials were ready to begin business. Something like $14,- 900 in Louisville and Nashville checks on the First National Bank of Mont gomery were in the car and as payroll after payroll of the different men were checked off and verified it was paid in forty per cent cash and sixty per cent checks.
 By last night every employe in Mont gomery and several roadway men of the South and North who had been tin- able to meet the car in Birmingham or on the road had been paid and some thing like s25,000- put in circulation in Montgomery. From here the car will go down the NJ. and M. paying off on the Alabama. and Florida to Geneva and Graceville and on the P. and A. to Pensacola and River Junction. Then 1t will return to Louisville, and this months payroll will be over.
 The office forces of the Western were paid off yesterday. This depart ment is always paid on the first of every month but the first of Decem- Der falling this time on Sunday. they were paid yesterday They are always paid in checks on the First National park
