Railroading Years ABO.
I , , .Scrlbncr's . : When wo picture the sur-
< .rpuntlinps of the traveler upon railways
during tlio first ten or fifteen years of
their existence , wo find his journey was
not ono to bo envied. Ho was jammed
into n narrow scat with a stilT back , the
deck of the car was low and Hat , and
ventilation in winter impossible. The
. i , springs of the car wore hard , the jolt
ing intolerable , the windows rattled
' like these of the modern omnibus , and
conversation was n luvury that could bo
indulged in only by these of recognized
, superiority of lung po.ver. The brakes
wore clumsy and of little service. The
ends of the flat bar rails were cut diago
nally , BO that when laid down they
would lap and form a smoother joint.
Occasionally they became sprung ; the
spikes would not hold and the end of
the rail with its sharp point rose high
enough for the wheel to run under it ,
" ' rip it loose and send the pointed end
through the door of the car. This was
culled a "snake's head , " and the un
lucky being sitting over it was likely to
Ijt j bo impaled against the roof.
% Insuring Kmploycs.
f ; Now York Times : The Reading Rall-
ty road company proposes to organize n re
lief drmutual insurance association for
the benefit of its 15,000 employes. A cir
cular giving the details of the scheme
and signed by President Corbin was
eont out to the employes of the company
yesterday. Any employe who has been
in the borvico of the company for six
-'months , upon passing a satisfactory
.medical examination , may become u
member. The contributions arc to be
1 deducted monthly in advance from the
i earnings of members , and the railroad
1 ' company , besides assuming all the expenses -
ponses of clerk hire , oflice room , and
stationery , will contribute to the fund
' -10 per cent of the amount given from
"
, time to time by the employes until the
; total sum shall reach 81,000,000 , after
which the company's contributions will
ij bo 6 per cent. In the event of a deficit
! , in the fund prior to the total contribution -
, " tion of the 10 per cent guarantee the
( icompany will cover said deficit to the
if .full amount of the proposed contribu-
? ftion , to-wit , 3100,000.
$ : < The employes will bo divided into
j' ' five classes , according to the amount of
? ' wages earned. The first class , whoso
t wages do not exceed $10 a mouth , will
If make a monthly contribution of 7o
* cents , entitling a member to CO cents
I daily for fifty-two weeks , in case of dis-
°
i ability by accident in the company's
K service , or to 40 cents for ilfty-two
W weeks in case of sickness incurred during -
* ing service , and to S2-50 at death. In
i this proportion the scale ascends to
these receiving wages of moro than
S100 per month , who will pay $8.75 and
receive daily benefits of $2.50 or $2 end
n death benefit of $1,100. ! The division
superintendents have been instructed
to give full information to all employes ,
and as soon as an organization can bo
effected the contributors will elect ofll-
eers.
eers.The plan of the relief fund is very
much like that in operation among em
ployes of the Pennsylvania. This or-
jff' ? pmitzation was effected in February ,
I860 , and it now numbers 18.714 mem
bers. Last year the employes con-
f' tributod $341,191 , and the' company
! " $58G4H. The sum of 8260,548 was paid
for benefits. The scheme was first put
in practice by the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad , but that company has entirely
severed its connection with the insur
ance association , which now rests upon
its own footing by a special act of the
Maryland legislature.
Kullronds nnil the Snlibatli.
Rochester Post-Express : Henry
Monott , general passenger agent of the
Central , writes in regard to the Sunday
excursions as follows :
"Tho executive officers of the Now
York Central some time ago decided to
discourage and check the growing ten
dency toward increased special business
on Sundays , and Instructions wore is-
Bucd to that effect. No Sunday cxcur-
pions not previously advertised have
since boon or will bo run. A great
number of recent applications have
boon declined , and the parties inter
ested encouraged to select other days.
The excursion fares between Rochester
pnd Ontario Beach are in effect daily ,
and so for as the Now York Central Is
concerned , no special inducements are
offered the people of Rochester to visit
Ontario Beach on Sundays beyond the
necessary provision for the increased
travel on these days.
The Now York Central is pursuing a
conservative policy in dealing with this
difficult problem ; and the extremists
who demand a total suspension of rail
way service on Sundays would probably ,
il their views were adopted , be among
the first to ask that an exception ba
made upon ono pretext or another. A
very largo percentage of the population
of Rochester desires facilities for reach
ing Ontario Beach on Sundays , and
many good citizens drive tholr families
to the beach , who certainly cannot ob
ject , upon any rational eround , to their
less favored neighbors taking the
cheaper mode of conveyance to reach
the same destination , presumably for
the purpose of escaping the heat , of the
city , to enjoy a , brief change of sur
roundings , secure .tho undoubted ben
efit of purer atmosphere , and to return
refreshed by a few hours at the luke
front.
Why There nro Ticket Scalpers.
New York Sun : Presidential years
are good years for ticket scalpers.
Every convention and big mass meeting
makes moat for them. At the Chicago
convention the round-trip rate from
Pittsburg was cut to $ o , from St. Paul
to (3 , and from Omaha to $1. The rates
did not stay so low long , and they wore
not made by every road , but each ticket
issued , even at the lowest rates , had a
week or so to run , and during that tlmo
there was : v margin of profit to the
ticket scalper of SO per cent or so on
xthe original cost. The prices , then , are
'rv good example of what opportunities
J werc offered at tha St. Louis conven-
'tion , and on a smaller Eeule at every
Btuto convention and state mitis mcct-
Ju.it now the exposition ut Cincinnati
has bcon furnishing the ticket scalpers
opportunities. Frequently the oxour-
f $ on rates are lower than the regular
lai-e ono way. The regular faro from
Pittsburg to Chicago was twice the &r > -
round trip rate made during the , Chicago
cage convention , and ? 2 is only a frac
tion of the regular faro from Chicago to
St. Paul , and from Omaha to Chicago
singly costs thrco times as much as a
convention excursion ticket. The re-
fcuh was that every sensible traveler ,
though ho wao going only ono way ,
i. bought an excursion ticket nnd sold the
return coupon for what ho could got t , ,
* " fef tag better off oven if he cov nothing
for the return , coupon than ' Ifhe had
paid the regular faro one way.
, A train of thlrtv or forty scalpers fol
lows the conventions uround the coun
try. They wore at St. Louis with the
democrats , at Chicago with the repub
licans , at the Cincinnati exposition , at
the Now Orleans carnival , at the St.
Paul Ice palace , every where that n
crowd goes and excursion tickets are
sold. At Chicago they did moro busi
ness than the regular railroad compa
nies , at St. Louis most ns much. They
would have done moro business nt St.
Louis only the competition there was
not so great and the rates wcro not below
low as at Chicago.
A man who can cheese his tlmo for
traveling within a limit of a few weeks ,
nnd to whom the speediest route is not
necessary , can save half the cost of his
railroad faro by watching the news
papers for notices of excursions to con
ventions , expositions and carnivals and
such things. Lot him go to a ticket
scalper and explain whore he wants to
go , being sure to impress on the Scalper
that ho is in no hurry to go , for hurry
costs money , and the man who has to go
at once pays the highest price. The
scalper will give him a ticket cither to
the place ho wants to go or to the con
vention place nearest with an order on
a brother scalper for a ticket the rest of
the way , or ho may got an excursion
ticKct with a drafton a brother scalper
to bo paid on presentation of the return
coupon of the ticket. If the passenger
Sees not like to have so many dealings
with the scalpers he can buy a regular
excursion ticket at the railroad offices
and lake his chances of selling the rc-
lurn coupon , Iho price ho gels for it de
pending on his shrewdness as a seller
and the kind of scalper he happens lo
cncounler.
The excursion rates give some rail
road that are always hankering after a
cut in rates , the opportunity they are
after. There are half a d-j/.en ways
of going out of Now York to Chicago.
Other things being equal , passengers
would naturally take Iho lines lliat
have Iho besl cars and make Iho best
timo. To get any tralfle at all the
other roads must oiler lower rates.
They are in a pool , and they can not
make a lower rale at their regular of
fices than the pool allows. To make a
low rate and got passengers they must
do it with seeming concealment.
Everybody knows , of course , that it is
done , but a pretense of not doing it
mubt be kept up. Hero is where the
natural usefulness of the ticket scalper
comes in. % The railroad does its part
by paying commissions for the bale of
tickets , the commission sometimes
amounting to two-thirds of the faro.
Any scalper can get this reduction by
bonding a boy with a note and the price
of alickct , less commission , to the pas
senger office of the company. How
much of this commission he keeps for
himself depends on his shrewdness
and the shrewdness of his customer.
With judicious care ho can bo induced
to lake within 32 or S5 ! of Iho price he
pays the railroad company. Without
caution ho may make as much profit
from the passengers as the railroad gets
for the passenger's transportation.
A Ijocomotive's Vngnrles.
Now York Times : The Erie railroad
yard in Jersey City was Iho scene of a
singular accident yesterday afternoon.
Engineer James Powlan started engine
No. 81 out of the round house soon after
8 o'clock on the way to the track on
which the train ho was to take out
awaited him. When opposite Hender
son street his locomolivp was struck in
the roar by the locomotive of the Mont-
clair train , which was moving out of
the yard. The collision reversed his
engine and started it up the inward-
bound track. The train known as the
Susquohnnna cxprcss.was running into
the stalion on that track. When Pow
lan taw that a collision between Ihc
locomotive of that train and his own
was inevitable ho leaped to the ground
and fell beneath the wheels of Iho
Montclair train. Ho was dead when
the Montclair train was brought to a
standstill.
The fireman , Blauvelt , followed the
lead of his engineer , and the abandoned
locomotive sped up the track until it
ran into the locomotive of Iho Susquo-
h ruin a express. The contact reversed
the machinery again , and the engine
ran over the switches again until a third
contact with something sent her speed
ily up the road , on the outward bound
track. Ono of the engineers opened the
throttle of hislocomotivcand started on
another track after her. Ho came
abreast with her at Coles street , and his
firemen , leaping to the cab of the run
away engine , brought her to a stand
still. The outerworks of all three loco
motives wore torn off by the collisions.
A passenger named Moore , on the Susquehanna -
quehanna express , who is said to have
jumped from the train when ho saw the
danger , was seriously cut and bruised.
He was taken to his homo on Coles
street , Jersey City. At the Erie rail
road yard all information was refused
last evening as to the details of this sin
gular accident. So far as could bo
learned , however , no other passengers
were injured.
A Canadian Railroad Scheme.
The Boston Transcript of September
13 prints the following dispatch from
Toronto : It is understood that Mr. II.
J. Boomer , manager of the Pontiac &
Pacific Junction railway , at present in
Paris , has succeeded in organizing a
company of capitalists there , with a
capital of over $800,000 , to complete the
Pontiao & Pacific line from Pembroke
to SaulrSto. Marie , to lease orpurchaso
from the Canadian Pacific railway the
North Shore road from Ottawa to'Que-
bec , and to obtain from the government
running powers over the Inter-Colonial
railway to St. John. The Canadian Pa
cific railway for Forao time past has
found the North Shore road , especially
that portion from Ottawa to Montreal , a
burden , and it is learned on the best
authority that the company is willing
to got rid of the whole line from Ottawa
to Quoboc. The scheme is a largo
ono , and the now company in
cludes lion. J. A. Chapman ,
secretary of state , and prominent
men in Canada. The object of this
system of lines Is to move western
grain from Minneapolis and the Cana
dian northwest to the Canadian winter
ports for shipment. The argument used
with the government by the company
in securing running powers ever the
Inter-Colonial railway is that the now
system of roads would be of great bene
fit to the country in case the American
government carries out its course of re
taliation , ns the amalgamated lines
would make a direct line to St. John
and Halifax. The Pontiao & Pacific
Junction road is now completed to with
in three miles of Pembroke , and will
bo completed to that place before win
ter sets in.

Now York Commercial Advertiser :
Herman Clark , of the firm of O'Brien &
Clark , who has bcon a railroad con
tractor for many years , says that there
has been less railroad building done
this year than for several years past
Ho accounts for this state of affairs by
saying that the railroads have in ore-

their business , and it seemed at ono

I build a certain amount of toad every
year , it was not In a prosperous condl-

miles of road wore built. This year the
total amount of road built will 'not ex
ceed 7,000 miles at most. Last year
building was at its height. The work
was carried on too fast , and now it has
assumed its proper level. There are
a great many miles of railroad in this
country , but let me tell you that rail
road building : in America is only in its
infancy. There are thousands of miles
of road to bo built yot. The reason
that there is a reaction now is that wo
went a little top fast for four or live
years. There is a better fooling among
contractors , and that is a good sign that
things are picking up. A great many
persons ask mo if I do not think railroad
building has bcon permanently over
done. I certainly think that it has not
been. I believe that wo shall see years
when over 20,000 miles of road will bo
built. Look at the map of the United
States and see the thousands of miles of
territory yet remaining to bo traversed.
Thou the eastern roads are building
mall roads all the time , and in nine
ascs put of ten they pay. I am talking
if legitimate railroad building , and not
, \all street speculation. There is a
great future in railroads in this coun
ty. "
Slow Improvement In Palace Cars.
Globe Democrat : "It is enough to
make ono disgusted with the palai-o car
monopoly , " ' said an old traveler , ' 'to see
'low ' slow tho.v are in making improve-
uents. Why , the cars are hardly as
jood as they wore ten years ago on most
jf the roads , and this is the moro
narked becaubc the regular passenger
ars have been wonderfully improved.
The bleeping cars on the majority of
'ho lines are lighted with kerosene ln-
tead of gas or electricity , the porters
lave more than they can attend to , es
pecially on those miserable bulTot cars ,
.ml the accommodations for ladies arc
rorso than over. Every car &hpuld
: iavo a female servant as" well as the
orter , and there should bo a division
'or ' ladies traveling alono. The scats
ro not as comfortable as they should bo
.ind the cars do not ride as smoothly as
' .hoy ought to. The American public is
ong-sufl'ering or it would compel the
? ullmans , Wagners and Woodruffs to
ervo it better. "
