12 THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 99 oy 1872. RAILROAD NEWS. 3r. Pullman’s First Experiment in the Sleeping-Car Business. - Through fo Waskington Without Change of Cars ~An Elegant- Ticket Office. Mexrtion was mada in yesterdry’s Trmosz of ©of the departure for Earops of 3r. George M. ‘Puliman and family, where Mr. Pallman goes, at the solicitation of European railway officiels, to complete arrangements for the exhibition of his cars during the Vienna Esposition. It is within the memory of many citizens of this city when Afr. Pllman intreduced his first palace car, re- mn!id!ed from an old passenger ¢onch, on the Chicago & Alton Railway; axd by them it will also be remembered that the railway world laughed at the ides, and consigned Mr. Pullman and his car to roin and utter failure. It must be & satiefaction to these persons, 83 well 35 to Mr Pullman, to know that be has completely conguered the railway systems of the United States and the Canadas, and has now gone to Europe, not to ‘beg that his inventions mey be looked upon with favo: bt atthe solicitation of railway officials in that conntry, who wish their roads eguipped with Pollman cars. This victory was not ensy towin. To persuade the railway worid of the gmhty ot an invention is only done by the most indefatigable efforts and, the best of inventive genius ; and Mr. Poll<En's great success indi- ‘cates that he possesses these qualities in an em- inent degree. ._The four Pullman cars which have been build- ing at the Detroit shops for the Vienna Exposi- tion have been completed, end will shortly be shipped for Europe. Tho process of constrnct- ing these cars been’ very novel, and is worthy of note, They have been set up and finished as if they were to run on American roads ; but the varioas parts have been manu- factured in small pieces, and 8o put together that they can be taken n.Put, each picce packed inabox, and the wholo car transported like orfinary merchandise. These cars will be Bhipped to Vienns in this manner, thus protect- ing the elegant work which has been put upon them from exposure during the voyage. When they arrive in Vienna they will bs unpacked and Put together like an ordinary road-carrisge. It would be a matter of no little entisfaction to a citizen of Chicago, where these cars originated, to witness the furore they will create in Vienna andon the Continent. There aro two dining and two sleeping cars, and the four will make a Imsn palace car train between Vienna and Paris during the Exposition. THROUGH TO WASHINGTON. The Pennsylvania Central Railroad Company will shortly ru: s line of cars from Chicago to Washington City without change. The route will be over the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne & Chicago Railrosd to Pik.t!hu!ghi’ thence over the Pennsylvania Central to Harrisbarg, thence over ¢he Northern Central to Baltimore, and thenca over the Baltimore & Potomac River Road to Washington. This latter road is completed with the exception of o fow miles in tho immediate vicinity of Baltimore, whero two tunnels are be- ingcut. When this line is finished cars will be Yun from New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh, to Washington, without chinge, This will bring the National Capital much near- er to the principal cities, and will add much fo the convenience of travellers in that direction. The Pennsylvanis Compeny have completed a ticket office in Baltimore forthe nss of this line, which is worthy of a description. The floor s of Ifalian marble, arranged in & simple and pleasing mosaic pattern. The walls and ceilings are beautifully frescoed, mouldings of protty design, gilded and otherwise orn- mented, surround the points of suspension of the three handsome chandeliers. Upon one side of the room extends a counter of elegant work- zanship. The material is walnat, with panel- lu_niu nlaid with bird's-eye maple, and decorated with gilt mouldings. At each ond of this coun- fer are desks, the one in front being that of the ticket depertment ; the other one that of the b ge department; esch of them enclosed in dsome ecreens, with glass panels; the wood work oramented similarly with the rest of 1he counters, The whole is blended in one har- monious design, and surmounted by a decorated centro piece, onclosing & large clock. In the rear end of the room 18 a large pier glass ea- closed in & frame gimilar in decoration to the zést of the fittings. Everything is constructed in the most_elegant manner, and nothing has been omitted which would conduce o the com- fort of those vmtmi the office. The windows sue filled with large lights of French plate-glass, covered with rich lettering, setting forth the warous routes of the Company. This office has been pronounced superior to any railway office in the world, and will be a pleasant place for citi- Zens of Chicago, who shall go over the throngh line to Baltimore and Washington, to visit. A SUCCESSFUL EXPERDMENT. The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Rallway cm_x:gmy havo made an interesting experiment ‘which, by its successful result, seems to have nalyad_{ha labor question, g0 far 23 that corpo- rationis concerned. Several months ago, the Buperintendent initiated the plan of paying the employes of the Company by the hour. The mechanics in the chns: of the Company were all pged by this standard, while sngineers and other train-men were paid saccording to the pumber of miles they ran. The latter plan, al- Ehongh likely to produce inequalities of compen- ation, is said to have worked satisfactorily, 50 thatin busy sezsons the engineers have mado 2s much ‘a8 $150 per month. In the ehops, the men were employed all through the veazon, but worked a reduced number of Bours, while In elack times they have been also em. ployed fewer Lours, instead of being discharged. At first some of the workmen objected, but & tial of the scheme is eid to have convinced all of its fairness, It affords the corporation a perfect protection against strikes, and removes sll causes of ill-feeling between the manzgers 2nd the employes. The brakesmen, the en- gineers, and conductors, are paid by the number of tripe made. If this plan shall continue to prove successful, it will certainly be adopted by other railway companies. ‘WISCONSIN BATLEOADING. The connection between the western branch of the Wisconein Central Railroad and the Mani- towoc line, will be made to-morrow. The bridge 2t Appleton waa completed yesterday, and trains will be _running through from Manitowoo on Lake Michigan to Salem, the present terminns of the Wisconsin Central, a distance of 162 miles, in a few weeks. The cold weather will compel the company to cease further operations this winter, but the work will be resumed as sarly as possible. The gap between Milwaukee and Manitowoe will doubtless be completed next summer, when sactive traffic between Chicago snd the terminus of tho line will be opened. —_— THE PUBLIC LIBRARY. Bleeting of the Bonrd of Directors—Communi- catfon from Dr. Robson—Amendments to the Rules—The German Contribution—The Pablic Opening Set for the First Day of the New Year—The Mayor to Deliver the Ad- dress. The Board of Directors of the Public Library met yesterday, President Hoyne in the chair, and present Directors Anthony, Sheahan, Ras- damaging books was peatsoned to the next meet- ing. . Anthony stated that donations of books hed been received through Bernard Heilbaltz, from Germany, Switzerland, and other places, and moved that a vote of thanks be tendere the donors, and be published in the Buckhandla Baisen, at ieipsic. Mr. Rastor moved to amend the resolution, 80 a8 toreturn thanks for the books given that were suitable for a public library, as nflrse per- centage were trash, Mr. Rosenthal remarked that some of these donations wero perfectly unsalsble, and were simply sent for advertising mms. It wes finelly decided to re thanks only for books that were * valuable.” "The Committee on Library was authorized to make out = list of worksof reference that should be purchased 23 soon as the funds were forth- coming. 5 Mr. Shorey moved that & special Committee be appointed to consider what, if any, legislation ‘was necessary for the success of the library. Megers, Shorey, Woodard, and Anthony were put in charge of the matter. Mr. Sheaban moved that the public opening of the reading-room take plzce st 11 a. m., nnf 5 1,1873.

The Commitiee on Building and Grounds were put in charge of the opening festivities, On motion of Mr. Raster, Messrs. Rosenthal and Raster were appointed a Special Committes to separate the wheat from the chaff in the Gar- man contributions, 2fr, Sheahan moved that the Committee on Library and Readicg-room be empowered to furnish nowspzpers to the reeding-room and fix them up o that the visitors could read them., te Tho Bosrd adjourned. —_— RUNN & SCOTT. The Cook County Nationnl Bank Brings in the Firms of Munn & Scott and George Are mour & Co. By a patition filed yesterday it would appear that the public have been egregiously deceived as to the parlies constituting the firm of Munn & Bcott in baskrupicy, and George Armour & Co. It was thought that recent severe investi- getions had developed sll that it was needful the creditors should know, but if the petition in question has any foundstion for its assertions, the creditors are only beginning to learn whoars the debtors that must account to them for the estate. The potition in question is filed by the Cook County National Bank, and prays for the bankruptcy of Mann & Scott, on account of suspension of their commercial paper in the non- payment of a noteats0 days, deted Aug. 12, 1873, for 5,000; and a note at 90 days, dated Oct. 14, 1872, for $5,000, and on account of the firm hav- ing, whilst in a state of insolvency, for the pur- pose of defrauding their creditors, on the 23d of September, 1872, assigned its property in use and possession in their elevators snd in all their other property in uso and possession to George our for the uee of tho of Georgo Armour & Co. The petitioner affirms that the firm of Munn & Scott is composed of Ira Y. Munn, George L. Scott, George Armour, Albert 4 Muinger, Hira Whesler, Charles 1. Wheeler, George H. Wheeler, James R. McKay, Perry H. Smith, and George L. Dunlap. The firm of George Armour & Company, to which the above arties assigned their property, is described as ing composed of none other than George Ar~ mour, Albert A. Munger, Hiram Wheeler, Chsrles W. Wheeler, George H. Wheeler, James D. McKsy, Perry H., Smith, and George L. Dun- lap. The usual affidavit as to the suspension of paper is appended to the petition A e R MASONIC ELECTIONS.

Atthe time of the fire, Mr. Gollmann was absent in Europe, and returned here to fnd that ho hed. lost everything in his old studio in the Opera House. He i8 now thoroughly prepared, however, to resume painting of portraits, and especially of crayon and pastello work, m which lines he has no equal in the city.

MONEY AND COMMERCE. MONETARY. ) BaTURDAY Evexmic, Dec. 1. A considerable increase in the stringency in the local money market is noticesble as com- pared to this time last week: The main ciuso of this is the heavy pork-packing businéss fiow hemg done, which may be estimated by the large receipts of hogs, which have been increasing for some weeks up fo yesterdsy. During the flast four weeks, the total receipts of hogs in this city have been 549,000, an excess of say 150,000 head over the roceipts of the ssme time last year. The average price of these has been pro- bably $11 per head, at which they would come to about $6,000,000. During the same four weeks the receipts of cattle have boem about 40,000 head, which is say 5,000 in ex- ;m: of the receipts for the same time ast year. The average price has probably nob ‘been far from 840 pa:g hegd, 8t whicg thayhl‘gould come ml,GDD,OflD. It appears, therefore, that the bas of the city have been called on to for- nish nearly $8,000,000, to pay for hogs and cat- tle within the past four weeks, or nearly $2,000,000 more than they furnished during the same period of last yenr. This vast outgo.of funds has itself been sufficient to causo strin- gency, though, 88 far as this is the cause, the stringency is & healthy one, and will be followed by areflux of the capital from the country in the way of increased collections of merchants, which for the immediate present are small and unsatis- actory. Tho henvy shipments of hogs, cattle, beef, and %ork to tho_East are making a large’ supply of ew York bills, and this, together with- tho necessity for currency to go into the country in payment for the hogs and cattle, has depressed the price of exchange to 75 cents per 21,000 dis- count, At this price for exchange, bankers find it convenient to fetch curfency from New York, which they are doing to some extent.

The following grain has been inspected into store this morning, up to 10 o'clock: 99 cars ‘wheat; 112 cars corn; 15 cars oats; 11 cara rye ; 28 cars barley. Total, 260 cars, or 100,000 bu. The Chicago produce markets were generally dull to-day, except wheat; and an easier feeling ‘was noticed in many departments, thongh few were weak. Thestorm of two days ago, followed by clear, cold weather, has not had the effect of largely reducing the shipments of produce to this city. Onthe contrary, they promise to be on the increase, as the farmers have left the fields and eettled down to their winters’ work of sending in the fruita of their summer labor, The grocery market was without new feature. The demand was only fair, being mainly restricted to &mall orders to make up assortments, and meet immediate wants, Prices remain steady and generally irm. In the dry goods market there was less of activity than on the preceding days of the week, but there was no abatement in firmness, the quoted prices being thoroughly sustained all around. Butter was quiet, with- ont change in values. Good to choice gm!uam not in excess of the demand, and r0lders were asking and obtaining full rates. No improvement was noticeable in the demand for cheese, and the weak fecling, 50 long o fex- turo of the market, 18 still prevalent. Coal was active and strong. ' At two or three of the yards orders were being filled at $10.50 for Erie and $12.00 for Lockewanoa, but dealers generally were demanding $11.00@11.50 for the former and $12.50@18.00 for the Iatter. Stocks of ‘an- thracite are rapidly dwindling, and dealers are talking of an advance. The dried frnit trade waa only moderately active, and foreign descrip- tions were again quoted easy. Domestics re- main comparatively firm. Fish were but little inquired for. Hayremains quiet and without quotable change in prices. Hides and leather were firm, though the demand for the Iatter ar- ticle was small. There was a good demand for carbon, lard, and linseed oils, but other descriptions were quiet. Tobacco and wood were steady at former - quotations. Alcohol was 2¢ lower to-day, now quotable at 81.80@1.85. The demand for lumber was light, and prices wero without important change. Building materials continue quiet and steady. Iron and steel, metals and tinners’ stock, were quict and unchanged. Tin plate has advanced in New York, and prices here have a strong up- ward tendency. Nails were in light requeat at $5.75 rales, not. Salt was active and firm. There was & fair Inquiry for wool, prices remaining steady. Broom corn was unchanged ; the high- er grades are in demand and firm; common stock is dull and nominal. Hops wers in fair dernand and very firm. Seeds were in moderate request. Timothy was firmer, E;i:“ ‘gelling at $3.25@3.80. Clover was at $5.25 for prime, and $5.70 for choice mam- moth. Flax quotable at $1.60@1.65. Potatoes were without particular change. Choico varieties are quotable at 70c on track, and 75c delivered. Choice poultry was in demand ; tur- keys aro a shade firmer; the stock of goed-con- ditioned poultry is rather light, but common is very flenty. Grouse and quail were in fair de- mend. Venison and rabbits were in large sup- ply, and sold slowly. Green fruits wers quiet, the cold weather interfering with tho trade. Highwines were rather more active, at the same %ri:ns 28 quoted yesterdsy, which wero a steep decline from the nominal quotations of the day. Sales were reported of 150 brls at 90c, and 50 brls at 8934c. Dressed hogs were in better request by ship- ‘pers, and the market ruled 50 per 100 Ibs higher, notwithstanding the easier feeling in live, The market closed firm. Sales were reported of 800 head at $4.40; 75 at $4.373¢; 1,079 at $4.85; 7 &t $4.80. Total, 1,461 head. = Provisions were dull, and practically nn- changed, though & shade easier, in sympathy with a weak feeling in hogs at tho Stock Yards, where heavy receipts again caused buyers to hols off for lower prices. e Teceipts of the weel anding this morning were fully 160,000 boad, which is the biggest week's receipts ever ~.aown in this market. There was no domend for pork, and former prices were nominally sustained. Lard, was. mo orately active, and essior. Meats werein fair demand,chiefly on direct order, which ‘waa independent of the og market of the day.

Inremarking on this difference, to-day, one or two provision dealers took occasion to doubt the accuracy of the pack- ing returns, thinking it possible that some of the packers are reporting their minimum work, in order to give sn idea of diminished production. .

Milward & Co. write as follows : Thongh the predictions of cur prorision dealers 2 $o the large number of hogs remainihg iri the hands of the farmers, and the heavy receipta o be expected; arg being daily Verified, yet thera ure circumstances cons nected with the tride which have been generally over- looked, and whith, nevertheless, must occupy zn important position {n its success or failure, Chiefly among these is the largs incroase in the net weight of the hoga, as reporzed from the various packing points. Our incrosse is placed, by competent judges, at from 10@15 Ibs per hog over last year's; Milwaukes sbout the same as ours; Cincinnatt at from 25 to 40 Ibe; in fact, from Tllinds, Indiana, Towa, Wisconsin, Mis- sourl, Kansas, Nabraska, and Ainnesots the reports are very conowrent, and, if the result should turn out ns sticipated, must tell yery sensibly in the final summing up of the season’s work, The oxport demand for the continent has been large, but {s now abating. The English demsnd haa been thus far very light, snd tnless we _should soon be favored with liberal orders fr export, the surplus left for home consumption 18 ikely to be 80 large a3 to become un< manageable, TUader these circumstances the packers 8eem to realize that their sola security lies in inslsting onlow pricos for hogs, and though, during the past ‘week, their efforts have been in a measurs crowned with suceess, yot it must be remembered that oven now they have to hold the products and become specu- Iators, o8 thoy bave thus far through the scaaon been working at a low of fully 50 cents per hog, and now, u&flc& of products have declined correspondingly with the price of hofn, the same loss stares them in the face, and their sole sdvantage gained is that the lower price paid for the hogs render the holding of products less precarious, Flour was almost inactive, the buying being confined to one or two local retailers. Buyers for shipment have lowered their bids to the ex- tent of abount 25c per brl, which holders Te- fused to concedo ; henco dulness. Bran wes hufl. Sales were reported of 100 brls ext rin, (Lockport Hydraulic) at $6.75 5 108 br ; 15 brls buckwheat (Jackman's) at , 215 brls. Also 10 tons of bran at .00 at mill’; 10 tons do at_ $£10.50 on track. ‘Wheat was less nctive, and averaged about 1o higbar than on Friday ; though "ZZ irregular and weak during the grester part of tho session, New York was guoted strong, and the reports of damage by flood in many sections of Europe joined to produce a decidedly bullish feeling, and there was glenty of trading early at an ad- vance. Butafew offers to sell on the part of operators supposed to be large holders caused the impression that the eaflg feeling was the re- sult of manipulation, and_that the longs were trying to unload. Then the market broke, ad thenceforward there was but little buying, though Lgriees rallied somewhat, 23 offerings were withdrawn when it was found that they were not wanted. The latost accounts show that about 10,000,000 bt of California wheat havo been received in Liverpool since the beginning of the harvest year, and that arrangements have been made to send about as much more; tho whole comprising about 260 vessellosds. It is boginning be understood that _the amount of wheat which Great Britain can draw from California in any ono year is not so much a question of pro- duction as of oarrying capacity; go that it is not impossible to have & glut on the Pacific slope, and a comparative famine in the British Isles, unless the latter condition be averted by sup- plies from other points. It is yet too exrly to over-estimate the extent of damago to the crops of next year by the recent floods in Europe, but the tone of the foreign markets is not such as to warrant the belief that the demage is serious and extensive, Our receipts were light, but this wasa probably only s circumstance of & day or two, that will soon be remedied. There was Lit- tle buying for ehipment to-dsy, Seller January opened at $1.165, advanced to 81.173, declined to 81.163¢,and closed at 31.1634.

Corn was dull at sbout the same rango as yes- terdsy, being, if anything, ashade easier, though receipts were relatively emall. The business of the session was simply a repetition of that of many previous days. The capitalists seem to studionsly ayoid corn, and none of them are in- vesting in it, so far as known. Hence it is heavy, though so low that few are willing to sell st cumont quotations, if they can help it. Especially is it considered dangeroms to sell short, as it is feared that some of tho capitalists are watching the market closely, and are prepared to take hold extensively when they are satisfied that prices have touched bot- tom.

Dnflnd; tho first half of the week, prices were unsettle and in buyers’ favor; but later the market firme up & little,—a tesult of the meagro receipts. l‘ge condition of thé market below has not changed for the better, which accounts for the apathy of shippers; while the extrems dulness of the rotail meat trade is the cause of the zb- sence of anything like activity in the demand from local butchers, Nar aro stock steers in moro than fair request, nearly all the larger feeders having supplied their wantd esrlier in the sesson. 'Tho receipts of damsable stock steers are light; however, and this - fact helps to sdstsin prices, the market remaining comparatively steady st $8.75@3.00 for common lots averaging from 700 to 850 1bs, and &t 3:25@8.75 for medium to g'rlma droves, averaging from 850 to 1,050 ibs. he receipts wera of & better average quality than those of lnst weelk, or the preceding one, there being a very perceptiblo falling off in the supply of poor cows and mwnng steers, and a corrosponding increase in the offerings of fair tg choice grades. Only a fow Christmas beeves #rrived, and most of thom went through in first hsinds, there being very little inquiry for such here, and the prices offered were generslly much below the views of holders. Texas and Chero- kee cattls have comprired & considerale portion of the weel’s suppiy. For these the ruling rates were 82.25@2.75 for common to medi and 83.00@8.80 for fair to good fat corn+fed. Veal calves remain comparatively steady at £8.50@ 8.765 for thin coarse heavy, and at $4.50@5.50 for good to choice. Milch cows have met with some inquiry at $20.00@45.00 per head, accord- inF to quality. L N "To-day there was nothing doing, and prices remain nominally the same ason the previous dsys of the weel.

This range was sustained until ‘Wednesday, when, under the excessive receipts, » fecline of 15¢c was suffered, prices falling off {0 $3.60@3.85. Thursday's receipts were also heavy, and sellers were obliged to_ grant furthier concessions, $3.45@8.70 being the quotations at the class of trade on Thursdsy, but under the lighter reoei%ta of yesterday and to-day, there Was a favorable reaction, and prices have worked ‘back to 83.55@3.85. Only s emall proportion of the supply fell into the hands of shippers, their gu:clmsu reaching only sbout 22,000 head. ackers were actively ongaged from the opening to the closs, but their wants did not prove sufi- eient to absorb the enormous supply, and seve- ral thousand remain in the pens unsold. Bellers are looking for lightor receipta next week, and somo are looking for an advanco to $3.75@ 4.00, but the present surroundings of the market are decidodly egainst any material np- ward movement of prices, and, with anything like as large raceipts as during the past week, even present rates cannot be sustained. To-day thero was & light demand from ship- pers and packers at 83.55@3.60 for common ; at £8.65@8.70 for medium, and at $8.75@3.85 for good to really choice. The market closed dull at the above quotations. SHEEP—Tho sheep trade has been quiet, with bot alight fluctuation in prices. The supply was somewhat larger than usual, but, with jocal and Eastern buyers both engaged, the offerings were well taken up, and at prices not materially lower than prevailed last week, Good to choice grades havo sold at_94.25@5.00, and common to_fair qualities at $3.00@4.00. A fow cxtra were picked up at $5.50@5.75, while & bunch of Christmas sheep found & buyer at £6.50. They averaged 1271be. The market closed quiet and steady.
