AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.
Personal and Ducal.
Albert ?. White, general a sent of the Bee-line,
*s summoned to Cleveland last evening by
telegraph.
The 1.. B. Ai W. people this week purchased
fifteen hundred tons steel rails at S2B, f. o. b.
ears at mill.
Harry Wotsell, general agent of the Vandalia
at this point, returned yesterday from an ex
truded Western trip.
The Ohio & Mississippi people havo estab
lished an agency at Evansville, and have ap
pointed H. Levick their agent
Scalpers' Row, on South Illinois street, was
wrasually quiet y „erday. The boisterous times
of Thursday seemed to have cleared the air.
In the case of the TA NARUS., C. & St. L. road, the
Qaley committee have bepn making a still
hunt, and. it is said, nave outgeneraled the Cor
lao syndicate.
There is such a blockade of grain at the Indi
anapolis elevators that several of the roads have
■notified shippers that no more will be received
fltttii t'uo blockade is lifted.
That there has not been an ugly strike on the
Wabash system is largely due to the firm stand
Against strikes which the Brotherhood of Loco
nuative Engineers and Firemen have taken.
James Reed, general agent of the C., B. & Q.,
and K. L. McDonald, of the C., W. &M. road,
ar in the city on official business. Both report
lm*iness improving with their respective roads.
Oscar Vanderbilt, district passenger agent of
th* Northern Pacific, was yesterday summoned
l>jr telegraph to St. Paul, it is said, to explain the
methods by which he has teen doing business of
Ist*.
Bad feeling exists between the Ohio & Mis
sineppi and the Evansville & Terre Haute
road*, and the E. & T. H. are now sending Cincin
nati passengers via Terre Haute and Indian-
AfK>fis.
Traffic Manager Lazarus, of the TANARUS., D. & S.
road, has promised the roads that if they will
let bis passenger man, who has so disturbed
rates of late, down easy, he will place a curb on
hue in tho future.
A leading freight official says that there is
enoagh tonnage in sight for all the roads it
freight rates were only fixed at remunerative
figure*, and it is tho intention of the managers
to advance rates at their next meeting.
George M. Pullman has increased his subscrip
tion to the New Orleans exposition from SIB,OOO
t® $25,000. He is only lending that money. If
A*f roan imagines that Mr. Pullman is a philan
t beep hist or an eleemosynary institution it is
lime for him to be undeceived.
TfieC., H. &D. people assign ns a reason for
taking up the frog at the Belt road, winch con
nected them with tho C., St. L. & P., that the
latter have been using their main track as a
Aitia-track. and in several instances have de
layed theC., H. & I. passenger trains.
Creditors of the Illinois Midland road are
itrach disheartened that the sale of the road has
been indefinitely postponed. Attorneys in the
cue© are of the opinion that the road vviil not be
sold in the next twelve months, so many new
questions is the postponement of the sale to
open up.
The report that the Wabash was about to drop
th* St. Louis, Kansns City & Northern from its
jpystem, and that the Quincy would pick it up.
lacks entire truth. It is stated officially, that
present relation are not likely to be disturbed so
long as tho Wabash meets the interest, which
■when last due was not promptly paid.
Manager Tandy, of the Commercial Express,
yiotifios Western agents that the Philadelphia &
Reading railroad will not accept Philadelphia
rates and divisions to Lansford and Tamaqua,
Ta.. via Carbondale. This cancels the arbi
traries to the above points as shown in Commer
cial I Express line tariff No. 1. to points on the
Oentral railroad of New Jersey, issued July 1,
1883.
C. H. King has declined to act as ngent of the
Canada Southern line at this point, and Frank
Ensworth, cashier at the C., H. & I. freight
depot, has been appointed their agent. R. C. J.
Pendleton, the retiring agent, was yesterday
instructed to turn the books, etc., over to him on
Monday next. Mr Ensworth will remove the
office from the Board of Trade building to the C.,
H. & I. dopot.
The 1., B. &W. people will, as soon as the
five sleeping cars can be got in readiness, put on
p. lino of WoodufT cars between Peoria and New
York, using the N. Y., P. & O. and Erie. The
Pullman Car Company has consented to such
on arrangement, which the Erie people first
assented to providing the Pullman company did
not object. The Woodruff cars are uot at the
present time running into New York over any
road.
A delegation of six firemen employed on the
!., N. A. & C. railway went to Chicago Thurs
day night to lay certain grievances, of which
t-heir brotherhood complain, before General
Manager Woodard. The engineers along the
lino recently sent a committee to Mr. Woodard
with grievances similar to those of the firemen,
And they were most hospitably received, and
proper attention paid to their complaints, and
the necessary redress made at once.
At the meeting of the passenger men of tho
Chicago and Ohio River pool on Thursday a
round trip rate of $ll.BO. Chicago to Cincinnati
And return, was agreed upon on account of the
pulfivan prize fight at Cincinnati to-day, tickets
good returning Monday night next. It was also
Agreed to run two excursion trains to Louisville
during the continuance of the exposition there.
One will be over the Louisville. New Albany &
Chicago, the other over the C., St. L. & P.
Cud J., M. <fc I. roads. The round-trip rate will
a sl2.
Western merchants mav as well base their
calculations on an early advance in west-bound
through rates. As yet no change lias been
made in freight rates even on the New York
Central and West Shore, but of course the same
power that in a moment doubled passenger
fares can advance freight rates at its will. If
not through rates, local: ami if not east-bound,
certainly west from New York. All the trunk
line Mare glad enough to see a cessation of hos
tilities, and the difficulties in the way of higher
rates on all traffic are not insuperable.
With the prospects for an improvement in
Business, stock of the Cincinnati, Sandusky &
Cleveland road has advanced several points.
'jL'liu: road js operated by the 1., 13. & W. people.
The road has not earned more than its minimum
Xenial of $22,000 for the last fiscnl year, but that
sum takes care of all its expenses, and the prop
erty is in a condition to profit by any improve
ment in general business. The stock may be
considered a good purchase upon any future
reactions. Having entirely extinguished its
floating debt, the road paid small dividends on
the common stock in 1882 and 1884.
The charges against the Vandalia line, pre
ferred by the Chicago & Alton road some weeks
g>. w* rc investigated Thursday by Arbitrator
"K I* V ilbon. of the Chicago. St. Louis & Mis
souri River Passenger Association. Representa
tives of both lines were present. It was shown
that tho Vandalia, in making the special rates
that caused the trouble, were not as great,
offenders as was believed at first, for it was
proven that the tickets were authorized in favor
of '-the Sumner Guards and their friends.” As
tteople who travel are anybody's friends, it was
xml surprising that a large number of these
tickets fell into scalpers* hands Instead ot 100
of the Vandalia’s issue but ninety were found,
imd as the Alton road had requested the reduc
tion, it was deemed best to give both sides one
■week's time in which to produce further testi
mony.
Tho Cincinnati, Sandusky & Cleveland suit
Ag3<:i;-t the Indiana, Bloomington & Western
railway, which is expected to come to trial in
the Ohio Supreme Court next month, if decided
in favor of the Sandusky, will give the latter an
ifterease (f $60,000 per annum in its future
rentals, and a lump of $240,000 for fotlr years’
back r< ntnls. The difference in opinion is in
regard to the construction of the lease of a por
tion o‘ the Sandusky road to the C.. C., C. & 1.
The Sandu-ky people claim that 33 13 per cent,
of the total earnings of that portion of their
road should be turned over to them, while the
B. A VV\ people assert that only one third of
!$5 per cent, of the earnings of the piece of road
in question should go to the Sandusky, while the
other two thirds should go to tin* 1., & \V.
This lawsuit illustrates tlm care with which rail
road leases must be drawn.
The Pennsylvania people appreciate brave
icU. A serious accident was prevented a night
or two since at Birmingham, on the Pittsburg,
Fort Wayne & Chicago road, by the forethought
of C. Hoevler who lives near that point. He
observed a place where the heavy rain had
washed away a portion of the railroad track. He
knew that the Erie express would pass on it3
way to Allegheny in a few minutes, and that he
would not have time enough to get a lantern.
He according tore some leaves from a note book,
which he lighted as the train came in sight.
Although the light was feeble, the engineer
stopped for it When the trainmen and passen
gers learned from what danger Mr. Hoevler’s
signal had rescued them they overwhelmed him
with thanks. The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, in recognition of the service, presented
him with a pass over its lines for life.
Foreclosure Suit Against the L., B. & M.
Special to the lndianaDoli* Journal
Bloomington, 111., Aug. 28. —The Central
Trust Company of New York to day commenced
proceedings in the Circuit Court, here, to fore
close the first mortgage on the Lafayette, Bloom
ington & Muncie, now the Lake Erie & Western
Railway Company. The mortgage was given
May 1, 1873, to secure bonds to the amount of
$2,500,000, with 6 per cent, interest. It covers
the road and all switches, station and rolling
stock between Bloomington. 111., and Muncie,
Ind. Complainants allege that the interest is
due and unpaid, that the road has passed into
the hands of a receiver, and that the security
has become insufficient.
The 1., D. & S. Sues to Recover 8147,000
In Bonds.

catur & Springfield Railway Company began an
action to-day in the United States Circuit Court
against the Central Trust Company of this State
for the recovery of 147 unexecuted second mort
gage bonds, valued at SI,OOO each, which it is
alleged the Trust Company unlawfully withheld
from the plaintiffs. These bonds were held in

Why They Want Divorces.
Very succinctly Annie W. Lehman states her
alleged cause for divorce. She was married to
Frank P. Lehman ia December, 1880, and two
years thereafter, she charges, he failed to con
tribute to her support Mary E. Cameron, a
teacher in the public schools, recites the same
charge in her complaint, but adds thereto that
of abuse. She and John J. Cameron were mar
ried in June, 1871. She says that ho on one
occasion tore a part of her ear away, and on
another bit her nose so badly as to leave a
permanent scar. She also claims a decree on
account of drunkeuness, and wishes to have the
custody of their children.
Improvements at the Fair Grounds.
Mr. J. F. Studebaker, of South Bend, who is
in the city, yesterday submitted to the State
Board of Agriculture a proposition in which he
offered to erect on the Exposition grounds a
building finer than any now located there, if
given a lease to the grounds which he desired to
use for the purpose. The board has agreed to
give him a lease for five years, and the erection
of the building will at once be begun, so that it
can be used at the forthcoming State fair for an
exhibit of the wagons manufactured by the
Studebaker Brothers.
The City Sued for Damages.
The sidewalk on the north side of Washington
street, near Meridian, was icy Dec. 17,
1883, when Mrs. Emogen E. Woodall, while
walking thereon, slipped, fell and broke a leg.
jjjrfie alleges in her complaint, filed yesterday
against the city for SIO,OOO damages, that she
was prevented by her injuries from attending
to her work for three months; that the bones of
the leg were badly shattered, and that if the
sidewalk had been kept in proper repair the
accident would not have occurred.
Testing a Fire Engine.
The Remington Horse power Fire Engine was
tested yesterday on New York street, near
University Park, before a committee from tho
city tire department, and also one from the in
surance men of the city. The engine is very
light, and can be made to force a stream of water
from the hose fully 125 feet high. The county
commissioners, it is understood, will purchase one
to be placed in the neighborhood of the Orphan
Asylum.

Mr. Tutevriter Not a Candidate,
Mr. Charles Tutewiler says that the statement
in some of the city papers that ho is a candidate
for the Republican nomination for Council in the
Tenth ward is unauthorized. “I should like to
see some good Republican nominated.” he says,
“and will no all I can to elect him, but 1 am not
and will not be a candidate.”
A Laborer’s Suit for Damages.
Charlos Bnnkley has sued the Indianapolis
Chair Manufacturing Company for $5,000 dam
ages. He charges that an accident to his hand
while working at one of the defendant’s machines
has permanently disabled him.
Tli© Caune of Mr. Wilcox’s Death.
The coroner yesterday found, on u post mortem
exam nation, that Joseph W ilcox, whose death
occurred so suddenly on an 1.. B. & W. train
night before last, died from fatty degeneration
of the- heait.
The combination, proportion, and process in
preparing Hood’s Sarsaparilla, are peculiar to

THE LNDIANAPOLIS JOURNAI* SATURDAY, AUGUST 29, 18S5,
GOOD-BYE TO DR. MARINE.
The Farewell Soeial at Cent ral-Avenne Clinrch
—-Kind Expressions Toward the Pastor.
The people of Central-avenue M. E. Church,
men, women and children, came together at that
tabernacle last evening iu a farewell social to
Rev. Dr. Marine and wife, who are about to re
move to Lafayette, where the Doctor is to take
the pastorate of Trinity Church, to succeed Rev.
Dr. Buchtel, who has gone to Denver, Col.
The church was filled, even children in arms
being numerous. Rev. Dr. Lynch said he had
been requested to cali the meeting to order, and
did so, introducing as the first speaker Dr. E. S.
Elder, who explained that he was merely a sub
stitute and would read what had been given him
by Mr. John B. Conner, who was unable to be
present. He read as follows:
Eight years ago Trinity and Massachusetts-avenue
churches were consolidated, and the tabe-nacle we
occupy erected in the northeastern part of the city.
It was then seen that this section of Indianapolis was
destined to become the homes of a very la’ge part of
its citizens, since it was true that in no other direction
did the natural facilities for growth afford such ad
vantages. The more rapid growth of this part of the
city during these years than that of any other has
fully justified our anticipations. At first leasing the
lot, 100x200, upon which our tabernacle is
situated, we have recently bought and paid for it.
Realizing the growing need of church privileges of a
more permanent character, we have a sum in bank to
the credit of the permanent building fund, and have
a building committee standing ready to devise and
recommend to the society more definite steps when
tho opportune moment shall come to begin anew
edifice.
The pastorate of Dr. Marine has been a most
prosperous one for the church. The very remarkable
revival work under his charge during the closing year
has greatly strengthened the society in every way. As
showing something of this, as well as tho present con
dition and numerical strength of tho church, the fol
lowing statistics are given: Mi mbership, 350; acces
sions the present year, 94; enrolled in Sunday-school,
325; amount annually raised for salaries.etc., $2,725:
regular annual benevolent collection, $410; annual
special collection for poor, $200; miscellaneous,
S2OO. Total, $3,535.
Capt. Eli Ritter spoke next, in -behalf of the
young people of the church. He said that he
did not feel that Central-avenue was called upon
to weep as did that primitive church when Paul
went up to Jerusalem. Dr. Marine was going to
Lafayette, but not to be bound. During the
two years he has been here the church has made
great progress. This church, which was once
Trinity, has had a remarkable list of pastors—
Snyder, Bayless, Andrus, Beard, Marine—a roll
that will compare favorably with that of any
church in Indiana. The congregation shows
very clearly what Kind of ministers they have
had. The young people of this church represent
this. A little of the Sara Jones slang goes a long
way. People ought to know that Sam Jones’s
slang is intended for the ignorant and the vi
cious. Such is not for you, but for a class not
raised in the Sunday-school and church. This
church has had a regular stated ministry of tre
mendous power. We have had a revival of the
kind that will have permanent results. I do
not believe any church in Indiana has had bet
ter instruction from the pulpit than our young
people have had. My great admiration for Dr.
Marine's ministry has been from the fact that it
has been solid. There has been nothing sensa
tional about it. His sermons have told. Our
last revival was the most remarkable I have ever
seen —not for noise, but for good results. Wo
will be able to remember our pastor for more
than we now know. He closed with wishing
Dr. Marine God speed, and saying that the young
people would extend a welcoming hand to the
next migratory minister who comes to take the
beloved pastor’s place.
Mr. E. W. Halford spoke next, directly ad
dressing Dr. Marine on behalf of the church and
congregation. lie said that Central avenue
Church had expected to hold Dr. Marine to the
close of the third year, but consented, as obedi
ent to church authority and interests, to allow
him to go and sever the pastoral connection, and
that he goes with the hearty good will, good
wishes, prayers and love of all the people of
Central avenue Church.
Dr. Marine, in replying, said he did not know
until after his arrival that the meeting was to he
a speaking one. He said there was a bare pos
sibility that he might not go away, but the
probability was that he would. Ho said that in
the event he did not go he should carry tlie ex
pressions of tho evening as an inspiration to
greater zeal among this people. If ho went he
would carry it as a beautiful picture to
hang upon the walls of memory, and treasure it
with great delight. He said that Captain Ritter
had taken all the wind out of his sails by pro
nouncing a eulogy upon the church. He had in
tended to do that, himself. Nothing that had
been said exaggerated the truth in the least.
When 1 came here, two years ago, I found an
organization in many respects superior—more
complete and effective—to any to which I have
been appointed in my ministry. This was due
largely to my immediate predecessor, Dr.
Beard. There is a movement to a more specious
and better edifice to replace this one.
I believe you have a vantage ground as to loca
tion and have all the elements of future prosper
ity. I shall carry away from this congregation
many pleasing recollections of social enjoyment.
Our people here are like a family, and. this
church is home to us. Our congregation is com
pact. We livq in close proximity, and this
strengthens the social bonds of the church. I
shall always remember the enthusiasm with
which you have supported me and shall remem
ber you in my prayers in future.
A “crazy quilt” of fifty-six beautiful silken
squares, each .square a separate contribution,
was presented ?o Mrs, Marine, by the ladies of
the congregation. Each square contained the
monogram or the name of the individual donor,
and the gift was to convey to that lady an idea
of the love and admiration of the givers.
Four other squares, of like beauty and
contributed in the same way. Termed a beau
tiful sofa pillow and a single square a pin-cushion.
The cushion was for Mrs. Marine and the pillow
for the pastor.
Following* the brief speeches refreshments
were served and a general social and good time
followed. Dr. Marine will preach the last ser
mon of his pastorate at Central avenue Church
to morrow.
Rev. A. W. Lamport, who is expected to suc
ceed Dr Marine, is now pastor of Wayne street
Church, Fort Wayne. He is a man of forty
two years of age, of fine education and ability,
and with sixteen years’ experience iu the min
istry as a member of tho North Indiana Confer
ence. He has served verv successful pastorates
at Richmond, Anderson and other places, and
now at Fort Wayne. The church there con
sents to his transfer to Indianapolis, while
deeply regretting his withdrawal, just as Cen
tral-avenue gives up Dr. Marine. The South
east Conference meets at Brookvillo Sept. 24.
Tlie New Insane Hospital Buildings.
The regular monthly meeting of the commis
sioners of the new insane hospitals was held at
the Governor’s office, yesterday. The work on
the new hospital buildings is progressing satis
factorily, and all will be ready for occupancy
next spring, doubtless. The laundry and boiler
rooms of the Evansville building are completed,
anrl the wholeof the structure will be under roof
before the winter season opens. At the present
rate of progress the building will be completed
before either of tho others. The estimates al
lowed the contractors, yesterday, aggregated
$59,380.34, of which $15,117.47 was to A. G. Can
field. for work on the Richmond asylum; sll,-
281.7 Gto McCormick & Hodge, Logansport
asyium, and $12,981.11 to P. H. McCormick,
Evansville asylum, in addition to which $9,500
was allowed for heating aparatus and SI,OOO for
pipe tunneling.
A Boy’s Eyes Ruined by an Explosion.
While playing with powder last evening I)odio
Magee, the eight-year-old son of a widow living
at No. 153 North Tennessee street, was fright
fully injured by a premature explosion The
full force of the discharge struck him in the
face, and one of his eyes was completely ruined,
and it is feared he will lose the use of the other
eye. His face and head were badly burned.
Tho little fellow had a toy cannon which tho
servant took from him. He then put a consid-
erable quantity of powder in an empty peach
can and touched it with a match. It is said the
force of the explosion raised him two or three
feet from the ground. The mother of the boy
was frantic with grief over the sad accident
THE INJURED AGITATOR.
Socialist Chilton’s Meeting Brought to an
Abrupt Close by the Police.
T. L. Chilton, the fire-breathing Socialist,
spoke again last night from a dry goods box, at
the corner of Kentucky avenue and Illinois
street, to a crowd that numbered about 150
persons. He waged war against the millionaires
and the landlords, claiming that the laws of
the land were made in their favor, and
that the rights of the laboring men were ignored.
He urged resistance to all monopolies, and war
to the bloody hilt against the moneyed men. It
seems that the motive which has led Mr.
Chilton to proclaim against the existing state of
things in society is the fact that Mr. N. N.
Morris, the rental agent, has filed a suit for his
ejectment from the premises which he occupies
for the non payment of rent, and for this reason
he made some very bitter allusions to Mr.
Morris.
“Chilton, you’re a good carpenter, why' don’t
you ever work?” was the remark with which a
mechanic interrupted the Socialist’s harangue.
“I used to work alongside that fellow.” contin
ued the mechanic, “but henever did much good,
because his head was too full of the idea that his
mission was to fight monopolies.”
“That man,” said another in the crowd, “has
been turned out of no less than fifty houses, I
guess, for failing to pay his rent.”
There wasn't much sympathy in the crowd for
the injured agitator, and finally his address was
abruptly cut short by Patrolman Raftery, who
happened to drop into the gathering.
“What are you talking about, anyhow?” in
quired Raftery, who added, as Chilton began to
meekly explain, “Well, it don't matter; 1 don't
care about discussing the question with von If
you want to make any speeches you must get out
into the street to do it, and not blockade the
sidewalk. ”
Chilton subsided, after announcing another
meeting for next Tuesday evening in the court
house yard, and the crowd dispersed.
A Chess Club To Be Organized.
A meeting of chess players will bo held at
Ilurty's drug store thi3 evening, at Bo’clock, for
the purpose of forming a club. It is expected
that William Steinetz, the celebrated chess
player who came to this country recently from
Austria, wiR visit this city soon, and vrill prob
ably he a guest of the club which is about to bo
formed. All chess players in the city who desire
to become members of the club are requested to
attend the meeting.
The Cost of the Stale Printing.
The cost of the State printing during the cur
rent fiscal year, according to the report of Colonel
Maynard, the. clerk of the printing board, reaches
$41,285.13, of which $8,752.97 was for the print
ing and stationery of the lost Legislature. The
cost last year was $21.34G.32.. It is explained
that the cost of the increased expense is caused
by the publication of several official reports
which should have been published during last
year.

An Indication of Coining Prosperity.
That Indianapolis is again coming to the front
as a grain center is evident from tho fact that,
yesterday, there was in store here 452,312 bush
els of grain, against 198,700 at the corresponding
date last j ear, besides which there were fully
400 car loads of grain ou side-tracks to deliver
to elevators.
The Kokomo Division Again Victorious.
General Carnahan, the commander in-chief of
tho uniform rank, K. of P., yesterday received
a telegram from Cleveland, reading: “Score
one more for Indiana; we took first prize to-day,’
which means that the Kokomo division of the
uniform rank were the victors in the competi
tive drill there.

The Removal of 51 rs. Sproule.
To the Eilitor of the Indianapolis Journal*
The friends of tho Institution for the Blind
were very sorry to learn, through your issue of
Aug. 12, of the removal of Mrs. Sproule. It will
not seem like home to the pupils to return and
not find her there, for she was a mother to all.
W. B. \\ ilson tried for three years to get her re
moved in order to secure the place for his wife,
and it has been the general opinion that Mr.
Jacobs meant the same thing. There is no one
