The Roads (uterested in the Olah Business Tfimpflml‘i]y Bury the Hatchet, The Transcontinental Pool Troubles— The Tripartite Combination, The war of extermination which has been waged between the Union Pacific and Denver & Rio Grando ever since the completion of the latter company's line to Salt Lake City and Ogden, Utah, has been brought to a conclusion without anybody having boen exterminated, The fight has been a most bitter one, and during the last five or six months the rates from the Missouri river to Utah points were 25 cents per 100 pounds on all classes of freights. All the Utah business was therefore carried virtually at a dead loss, and had it not beon for the tact that the Utah business proper does not amount to ve much, the losses to tho roads engaged would have been enormous, Even as it was the roads were severely punished, and they were only too glad to embrace the first opportunity ‘‘to shake hands across the blovdy chasm” and make an arrangement by which paying rates can be secured on the Utah business hereafter. ¢ All the roads west of the Missouri river interested iu the Utah business wore ropresented at the meeting held at the Grand Pacific hotel, in Chicago, on Friday afternoon. There were present J. C. Stubbs, Central Pacific; P. P. Shelby, Union Pacific; A. L. Hughes, Denver & Rio Grande; Thomas Miller, Burlington & Missouri; and J. F. God- dard, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe. The Chicago Tribune says: conflict. suicidal one, and if persisted in an; longer would demoralize the rates on all other business west of the Missouri river There was no difference of opinion regarding the All were agreed that it was a After some discussion it was decided to stop the war and to form a gross pool on Utah business. So anxious were all to bring the fight to a close that percentages accounts for ita desire to either get out of the combination or have a new ar- rangement made that will give it a better show. The Tripartite Meeting Likely to Be Postponed. The opinion prevails, says The Chicago Tribune, that the meeting between the Western Trunk Line association and the Burlington, to be held in Chicago Janu- ary 17 for the purpose of considering the proposition to pool the Nebraska busi- ness between vhe association and the Burlington will probably not come off that day. General Manager Potter, of the Burlington, has gone west, and it is doubtful whether he will be able to re- turn in time to attend. President Per- kins is in tho east, and the indications are that he will also be nnable to be here in time, Itis understood that a post- ponement until January 24 will be asked for, and, as without the presence of the Burlington no action can be taken, the request will have to be granted. The proposition to pool the business with the weatern trunk line assoctation is not likely to be accepted by the Bur- lington. From what can be learned the latter is willing to pool provided it gets all its own business via Plattsmouth and a fair share of the Council Bluffs and Omaha business, including a share of the Union Pacific business at those points. The combination roads say they will not entertain such a proposition. They are willing that the Burlington should take all the business going via Plattsmouth, but they are not willing to’ give it a share of the Union Pacific busi- ness at Omaha and Council Bluffs, As oth parties are determined to maintain this position it is hard to see how a rup- ture can be avoided. It is quite proba- ble, however, that an open fight will be staved off for some time by bringing up all sorts of propositions for an amicable agreement that will require time for con- sideration, e — How Children Had “Fun,"” On a summer day, they went to play, Down the road to Neacon .

London Letter to The Hartford Times. “‘A right little, tight little island,” is Great Britain, as the old song properly says; but her railway interests, consider- ing the territory they cover, will bear comparison, in point of magnitude, with those of any country, not excenting the United States. The total number of miles open to traffic last year was 17,933, The number of passengers conveyed, ex- clusive of season ticket-holders, was 603, 885,126, Number of miles travelled by passenger trains, 122,548,268; by goods (or frieght) trains, 115,408,845; by mixed trains, 2,000,301; total, 240,056,404, The total number of persons killed on the British railways in 1882 was 1,121; num- ber injured during the year, 4,601. The railway traftic in this city is simply im- mense. Sixteen hundren and nine trains start every day between 10 a. m. and 11 p. m, for the London termini, which is rather more than an average of two a minute. Nordoes this calculation include the underground trains, During the same time 2,200 trains are dispatched from the London termini, 1,750 of which are devoted to traflic within an area of thirty miles around the metropolis. three hundred and ninety-five trains leave Broad street alone, each day, while 321 start daily from Liverpool etreet. To see what the railway traffic of London is like, one shovld go to Clapham junction, where the great systema connect.

It was decided to christen the new-born child the ‘Utah Tariff Association.” All business to and from Utah points between the Pacific coast and the Missouri river, both east and wost-bound, excepting grain and farm products, is included in the new pool. The agreement is to date from January 16, 1884, and is to remainin force until July 1, after which time any road dis- satisfied with the arrangement may give 90 days' notice of withdrawal, at the ex- piration of which time ‘the pool is then pinno,and sixteen hundred trains run over them every day.

No one is allowed to cross the lines except the officials, and these, like railway men the world over, grow fool- hardy from long familiarity with danger, and now and then come to grief. On an average one man is killed there every six weeks; and after watching the traffic for time, one wonders that somebody Rallroad Rioters. PeNvLETON, Oregon, January 12.—In the beginning of the week two hundred railroad men were discharged, and spent their wages ip whiskey and riotous living. They came here two days ago dead broke and demanded a freo ride to Port- land. Theys were refused. Yesterday they boarded the regular west bound train and held possession.

GOODMAN, Agent Omaha Neb. to be terminated. The new pool is therefore certain to be in existence for nearly ten months at least. By that time the other complications between the roads west of the Missouri river will have taken such shape that there will be no qrcn difficulty in deciding what should be done with the Utah business. The rates will be advanced next Mon- d:{, and after that date no shipments will be taken at less than the old tariff rates in effect between the Missouri river and Utah points before the war between the Union Pacific and Denver & Rio Grande was inaugurated. The new rates are all the way from $3 per 100 pounds on first class to 75 centa on spe- cial class, Mr. Georgo H. Daniels was elocted commissioner of the new association in addition to his duties as commissioner of the Colorado Pool association, which position he has occupied for some time past. His headquarters will be at Den- ver. The agreement was made subject to the approval of the general managers of the various roads, but there can be but littlo doubt that it will be promptly rat; fied, as the representatives of the various roads acted under instructions from their general manager DR, FELIX LE BRUN'S AN PREVENTIVE AND CURE.

The opinion is that the Union Pacific cannot be forced to remain in the association if it really desires to withdraw, as the per- formance of agreements by railroads can- not be enforced. Hopes are still expressed, however, that the association will not be dissolved, and the fencu! freight and or agents of the various roads, together with Commiissiener Ristine, are still en- gaged in the task of adopting rules and regulations, The general passenger | | agents were in scssion all day Friday, devising rules for.the transaction of the a0l sunngor business.

Dr, Hexgy, Now York, says: *In ner vous diseases, 1 know of no prepaation to equal it,” Mrs. David | P is not killad every day. The total number of men engaged in the railway service of Great Britain is 326,000, and of these 160,000 are connec- ted with the regular traffic. In most of the departments promotion is gradual and by merit. Before a man can blos- som into a full-fledged engineer he must have served an apprenticeship, first as cleaner and afterwards as fireman., En- ginoers who have charge of tho fastest trains make as much as $30 a week, but those employed in local trafic seldom get more than half that sum. These, how- ever, fare much better than those en- gaged in other branches of the service. Station masters are divided into three classes. Those belongihg to the third class get about $7 a week and a house, uaunl:{ with a little garden attached. At second-class stations, many ot which have a very large traffic, the agent gets house and garden and about $9 a week. The salary of first-class station agents varies, but is always wretchedly small, consider- ing the work and responsibilities en- tailed. The English railway guard an- swers to the American conductor, but his duties ,are different, and his wages, of course, much smaller. He has nothing to do with the tickets or fares. These, at small stations, are collected by the station agents when the passengers alight, the doors and gates of the station being locked for the purpose; and when a large station is being ap- proached the train is haltel a distance outside, and the regular ticket-collector takes up the chips. The work of tho guard is to watch the signals to see that the train starts on time and in proper order, thatis, with everybody aboard and the carriage doors all closed and fastened and to attend to the putting off at the proper stations of the passengera’luggage. For this he gets $6 or $7 a week, and the guards on freight trains receive still less, But {he poor porter is the worst off. American visitors will surely not begrudge the trifling *‘tips” they drop into the itching palm of this much-abused Knblic servant, when they know that the ighest wages paid to his class is 17 shil. i or $4.26, a week! The gratuities that fall to him average from $1.25 to $2.60'weekly, so that he is poorly enough Elid even when he does his best to help imself out of the pocket of susceptible- minded passengers. Those connected with English railways who have the greatest responsibilities and desorve the largest share of sympathy, aro the signal men. The signals consist at night of red, green and white lights, the first n}niiymg danger, the second caution and the ‘other safety. By day the signals are given by arms worked from the top of high posts. When the arm protrudes horizontally the way is blocked; when it is extended downwards at an angle of forty-five degrees the approaching train is thereby admonished to move carefully, but when the arm has fallen to a_perpendicular position it may go forward at full . Each man controls a large number of these arms and lights, in addition to manipulating the points and switches, in the locality. The work is done by means of levers, and the signal-man's box, which occupies an elevated position and has windows on all sides, sometimes contains a score or more of these. The mental and physical strain incident to such work is very great, and the constitutions of the men usually break down at middle age. 1Itis roverbial that there is not a single man in the service over forty years old whose hair has not turned gray. The shape of English railway cars, and their division into first, second and third class, are things with which American readers are quite familiar, The first-class compartment carries six passengers, and each has a soft arm-rest on each side of him and a reclining upholstered back to lean against. The seat is more comfort- able than those afforded in the ordinary American car, but not as much so as in the American parlor cars. The second class has alio a soft seat and back, but is minus the arm rests and allows less space for ench passenger, In the thixd you must sit five on a side, instead of three, as in the first; but in long distance trains the third-class compartments generally havo cushioned seats. The third-class carriages on local trains are of rougher pattern, and you meet in them, often, & very coarse class of people, But if you are going far on an express, your companions, with now and then an exception, will be well-dressed, well-be- haved and highly respectable. There is a saying that nn{y “princes and Ameri- cans” ride first-class, and it is a fact that none but the very wealthy or fastidious do to. In 1882 there was an increase of one million pounds in the third class re- ceipts as compared with the previous year, and tkird class traffic is now much moro than double first and second class together; the amounts being third class 16,381,000 pounds, and ~first and second class 7,170,000 pounds, The cost of the different grades is about as follows: First class, 4 centsa mile; secend, 3 cents; third, 2 cents with a slight allowance on each according to the distance traveled. The rate of speed made by railway trains is better hure, on the average, than in the United States; though you have “omo trains that will compare favorably with the futest in this country, The wain kuown as the “Flying Dutchman’ of the Great Western railroad runs from London to Bristol, a distance of 118} miles, in 2 hours 36 minutes, or at the rate of miles per hour, including twe stops of 11 minutes. Excluding these stops, the speed 18 40 miles per hour. The distance from London to Swindon, 77} miles, is niade in 1 hour and 27 min- utes, without stopping. or at the rate of 53,3 miles per hour. Water is invariably taken up by suction while the train is going at full speed, and the rate of pro- gress is greatly helped by the smooth, level-graded and well-ballasted road- wn’fs. 'he inconveniences attendant upon roilway travel in Great Britain are very great. Excepting on the few leng dis- tance trains ts)mt have Pullman cars at- tached, there are no places for retirement, and no fires. In the coldest weather iron foot-rests, containing hot water, are Auiaplied, but they are scarcely over avail- able for all the passengers, and are a poor substitute, at best, for your hot stoves or steam-heating apparatus. No train is witheut smoking carriages, but the compartments are so small and the tendency of the English to smoking strong-smelling pipes is 8o great, that in weather when it is not comfortable to have the windows lowered, the atmosphere is sickening 1n the extreme. OF course, there is no such thing as walking into another compartment when your cigar is done. The English railway carriages aro like the Jews and Samaritans of old, who had no connections with each other. But the greatest inconvenience is in regard to baggage. The passenger must keep this on his mind from the begin- ing to the end of his journey. He must see that it is put in the van at the place of starting; and when his destination is reached, or a change of trains has to be made, he must jump from his carriage the moment it stops and rush frantically to the same van to see that it is put off and taken care of. Such a scrimmago as occurs around the baggage vans when a crowded express train pulls into a metro- politan station, is worth going a long distance to see, if you are fond of excite- ment. The wonder is that many frauds do not occur. Anybody can claim any- thing if he is earliest in the field, and for a three-penny bit a porter will hustle it into a cab, and off you go before any- body has time to protest. Asa matter of fact, however, there is little thieving of this kind practiced, and very little luggage is permanently lost. On some lines the American system of checking is being introduced, but it is not much patronized as yet, owing to the additional charge the accommodation entails. The small and close compartments into which the railway carriages are divided have their advantages and their disadvan- tages. In promoting sociability they are a great success, for the passengers, sit- ting close together, and in opposite rows, cannot for shame ignore oue another’s presence; and it often happens in long Journeys that former strangers become quite well acquainted with each other. But when there aro only two in the car- riage—a lady and gentleman, and one of these is unscrupulous, an opportunity for scandal occurs such as couls not arise under the American system. To say nothing of the many base attempts made by men upon women, a_case has just oc- curred in which an abandoned female came near destroying the reputation of a gentleman by false charges made sgainst him because he would not submit to merciless extortions at her lmn(ls]:I e — How can you remamn a sufterer from dyspepsia when worse cases than yours are being cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, Try it. ——— The Tumble in Chicago. CHICAGO, January 15,—The downward turn in wheat continued to-day amid very considerable excitement. The weakness shownyesterday seemed to have been the unexpected forerunner of an increased demonstration. To-day the market opened heavy and weak and the failure in New York when bulletined only served to add to the depression. May sold down to 98¢ and February to 918, which latter approaches the lowest point touched for near future th:‘{:ut year. One or two spasmodic rallies occurredand May finally ran up to 993 at 11 o'clock, and at noon was 99} @994 and displayed a greater degree of steadiness. Trading was confined almost entirely to May option although some attention was paid February, which option was regul- ated by May and remained persistently seven cents in the rear. Corn likewise was very weak at the opening, May sell- ing down to 68}, but gradually improved and at noon sold up to 58]. May oats sold for 87} under yesterday's closing. May pork solddown to$14,90 at the open- ing, but at noon was quotable at $15.15. At noon May lard sold at $9.26 and re- mained steady.
