The minor of the resignation of President r.c-jn, of the Louisville and Nashville, was partially eon firmed yesterday by semi-official ci-paiches from Hew York statins tost Mr. Hilton II. Smith was actios as President of the company. At tbe general ever, nothing could be learned, as usual.

Ilr. A. U. Quarrier, the Assistant to the Trepan Ignorance on the said he had not heard aaytbing about it. In two oilier general departments it was stated that Mr.

Bmith Was the acting although no notification of the resig-tToa ef llr. Holers has been receiTed. The fmpreeripB) appears to be general among business msn that the road will go Into toe hand of a receiver, and it is stated tUt Victor Nswcomb or Dr. Standi ord will be appointed to thet office by the courts. There is aothlsg to base snch a rumor on, however.

Louisville and Nashville stocks opened at 28tf and closed at 27 yesterday. 4 A etechaoleere Vim. ITp t4 Editor th Crir-JntralA Louistillx, June 10. Were railroads managed with the same views to economy that are obserred by men at the head of any other bruins, they would in eaost eaeee pay large dividends. There are too many persons employed who do nothing absolutely nothingthat benefits the company in any way; and la evsry case where there is nothing to do a good salary is paid; aad proportionately as the amount of work increases the salary tenatM, tintO the hard t-worked ploys receirs a mere pittance.

1 It it, of course, necessary to bare education aad rgenixation to direct the movemente of A large business, but the number of persons who usually say: "Respectfully referred." or "please Investigate," are very large- Ijr la excess of the requirements. This la crease in force arises In a Tariety of ways, but in a great many cases in order to pro-' Tide employment for a relative or friend of km official or friend. The applications are countless, and in many cases can not be ignored. The working force of a road raries with the en rant of business done, which business pays for itself and leaves a food margin. With an increase of business comes an increase of clerks and officials.

When bosiness decreases there a corresponding decrease of the working force, but no decrease of clerks and officers. They just, bare en easy time. Then, again, there is a large amount of mismanagement, too many heads of departments, eto. In a few words, what is needed on a few non-paying roads is a thorough aad practical msn, with the nerve to dispense with tbe eer-Tices of every parson who is not actually needed to property conduct tbe business of the road, no matter whose son he Is, and: there would never be any oocaskav for are- ductioa of wages of the laboring portion of the employes. In a majority of cases, the bead of a department is.

to a greater or less extent, dependent on his asautant or clerk for everything, and can be absent any time days, weeks or months -and still the business is attended to with tbe same regularity. Why not dispense with oue man's services in each met A Stockholder. The feet Freight Llae tleesrlem. Thereteems to be a determination with the Presidents of some of the trunk-lines to out down the number of fast freight Jines, says tbe Indianapolis Journal. But one practically operates over either the Pennsylvania or the Baltimore an Ohio road.

The higher oQcials of these two road are quoted as saying tbey would not favor an advance in rates until tbe fast freight line question has been definitely settled. It will be remembered that at tbe meeting of the Joint Executive Committee at which the new contracts were formulated, a resolution was passed to the effect that it was tbe sense of those present that the initial roads should solicit and forward all traffic; in other words, that tbe fast-freight lines should be abolished Since that time no further action has been taken about the matter, but it is said now that several of the roads will insist on a meeting to decide the point before consenting to higher rates. This meeting will probably be held in a short time at Mr. Fink's office. Of course this talk about tbe fast-freight lines being responsible for the cutting of rates is all "bosh," as no line agent would do so unless instructed so to do by his superior oncers.

Doubtless there could be a thinning out of fast-freight lines, however, to advaa-; Sage. A Pesltry Car. llr. Win. P.

Jenkins, Traveling Freight the Lake Erie and Western, and Jlr. James L. Streeter, an extensive poultry dealer and shipper of Muncie, have recently invented a car which promises to revolutionize the present provincial plan of. shipping and handling fowls. Tbe new wrinkle is called a lire poultry car, so de-si and constructed as to enable tbe ship-pm; of live fowls any distance by rait without any of tie drawbacks attending the handling of "crates' and "baskets." which are the bane of tbe express agent everywhere.

Tbe car is not unlike a stock car in general appearance, having four or five ceck or floors far enoujh apart to accommodate standing poultry. Each deck may be separated by portable partitions into com-partmeata, or tbe length of the car may be thrown together. Each compartment is with a main door, which locks as bereft Iter described, and each door has a sliding door, which locks independently, for ose in transfer. A simple contrivance of rods and staples locks with a lever crank every door at once, and a storm-curtain protects tbe fowls in bad weather. A feed and water trough, which holds food and water for a trip to tbe seaboard, and will not allow tbe latter to splash out, tops off the completeness of the invention, for which a patent has teen applied.

Prisate Prelsht aa4 Pi Care. AYhen railways were first built it -It tbat tbey would only amount to aa improved kind of highway, tbe company i tte road and ciotiTe power and each patron owning his own ear. The greater advantage of having the company furnish all ficiiltics for transportation became apparent so quickly that tbe other way was t'rl'y tried. Dut everything mores in a chcle.andwe seem to be re turning; to tbe 1 car fathers in regard to private own-t: oc fears. For several years theatrical e- I o'eber- traveling combinations have re 1 cr owned their own coaches, and a rr ways have simply drawn them over i Hany IndiviJuala of means now 5 care of their own, or hired oraniy.

Lit, toTrevcr era cf privats cars for many persons may become, tbe custom of individual ownership of freight cars is destined to become itiil more common. A great trouble to extensive shippers and manufacturers has always been tbe lack of cars.

"When the busy seasons come most roads have an inadequate equipment, so that they can not accomodate their patrons. Be-. cause of this fact many firms and maan-fsetnring corporations now own their own cars, and the railway company only furnishes tho motive power. It is impossible to travel much without noticing how general this practice is, especially where ears of a special size or kind are needed, ae refrigerator or furniture cars. This custom must become more general until a supply of ears will become a necessary part of tbe plant of every Urge manufacturing company or organiza- tioa.

Tee railways wiil not be losers, for they will not be obliged to latest such large sums in equipment nor to be at as great an expensa for repairs of ears. As for the ad- Tantajes to tbe individual owners, they are not less important. Every firm can most profitably use cars specially adapted for tbe goods deals in, lor necessary arrangements of their interior and construction eaa be pro-Tided, tin this way we art coming back to the ideas of our fathers and to first princi- i Meveaseat ef Leeeee Cars.

General Manager Potter, of the Burlington road, returned from tbe West to-day. He denies tbe truth of the report telegraphed from Omaha a few, days ago to the effect that the Burlington and Missouri Kiver road had given notice of withdrawal from the Transcontinental Association.

Tbe recent changes in the management of the Monoa will have" no effect on the traUio agreement with tbe St. L. and which will go into effect as soon as this connecting link is finished. P. IIcstesgtox, the great railway magnate, is quoted as saying: "He never would be satistied until be was instrumental in building a railroad across tbe great Sahara Desert; that it was a work be bad long contemplated, and.

if his health permitted it, be would yet live to see this, the greatest achievement of his lifetime, fully accomplished." Tei Tolrdo, Cincinnati and St. Louis (Southeastern division) bondholders voted unanimously yesterday to add tbe name of Austin corbtn to their committee, subsequently the Iron division income bondholders appoinbed a committee to confer with tbe first-mortgage bondholders committee, with ariew to ascertain their rights exactly and protect them. Tes Indianapolis Journal prints the following solid fact: "As tbe railroad reporters of the leeamfc Western journals manage to get bold of Commiisioaer Fink's most important circulars, would it not be well for him to mail them direct to newspapers which publish railroad departments. It is not always pleasant for a reporter to slip in at a Genera Manager's office and hanl over his papers to bunt up Commissioner Fink't circulars." Thk Traffic Manager of the Wabash system sent out a telegram announcing that the pay ear would strike the P. and division about tbe 7th of June to pay for April eervkea.

The 7th came as usual, and likewise as usual tbe pay car did not come, and now there is every indication of a strike on that division. Tbe Indianapolis Journal says of this matter: "Tbe non-appearance of the pay car is becoming quite a serious matter, aa wages on tbe Wabasb system have been pressed down to the lowest notch, and it has been impossible for the employes to Imy up any money; Bwentim their grooere awl butchers are pressing them, for their pay. and in many cases are refusing further credit, and a general strike is imminent the whole cf the road.

The game was close enough to be interesting' up to the eighth inning, but the Toledos set all doubts aside in tbe ninth inning when, with two men on basse and two out, Muilane sent a long fly right to center, which llollia captured in good style, but Smith collided with him, causing Mullin to drop the ball, and before either player could, recover the men on bases scored.

IS THI KUrilfO BJCOIONS, The story of how Holbert, tbe catcher of the Metropolitans, first entered the professional ranks, has been told recently in the newspapers, but not correctly, llr. Chas. E.

Chase, who was one of tbe directors of the famous: Louis villa bins of 1S77, was tbe one who first introduced him in tbe busin "Every time I see bis name," said Mr. Chase last night, "I think of the first time erer saw him. I went East with the club on their first trip In 1877, and one day, whue we were In Philadelphia, we ran -out into one of the mining towns in Pennsylvania to play game with the club there, it being an "off day', with us. There was. a very rough crowd of spectators present, principally the men who worked in the mines.

We had i nobody with us to umpire the game and told the manager of the other club to select some one. He said he knew of a man who was somewhat of a ball player, and be would get him to act. He accordingly called a man out of the crowd and told us be would de. Tbe man was one of the most remarkable specimens I saw. His clothes were ragged and dirty, his face covered with coal-dust, and his shaggy, brown hair stuck out through the boles in his hat in several places.

We agreed to take him, however. and the eame was commenced, isvervtntng went all right until the fourth, inning when Snyder, our catcher, in attempting to run home from third base slipped and sprained his ankle.

He borrer wd Border's shoes, and Devlin commenced to pitch him a few balls for prac tice. He let them come easy for a while and then aent them like a shot, but tbe miner clung on manfully.

The game was com' menced again, and 1 never was more sur- orised in mv life. He finished the remaining fire innings without an error or a passed ball, and nob a single man stole second on him. When the game was finished 1 asked him his name and he said it waa Holbert. I wanted to know bow much he made, and he replied (1.50 a day.

He was 'guyed' unmercifully, but took it good- botnoredly, and caught for us against tbe Athletics tbe next day, and had not a single error and but one passed ball.

nnt-street Captist Church Last Reports From workers la British Amer ica ca Its Gofidiboa cx tta Great Oassos. FifcfT Montana and Orezon Sand Cheering Words to the Gathering, of the Children's Friends. i THP? FIRST DAYS PROGRAMME. The Walnut-street Baptist church was crowded last evening with an audience of oitizens and delegates attending tbe prelim inary meeting of the great Sunday-school Convention. American and British nags bung down from, across and around the pulpit and platform.

Chancellor Blake, of Toronto, Canada, presided. At his request all stood and sang. "Blest Be the Tie That Binds." He said they ware all of one accord in one place. The condition of the blessing was all one, of one heart, with one accord. in one place.

We beliere the blessing is to be given bow as much as 1800 years ago. The same hand is outsretched, tbe same band is as strong and as ready; will it not be well for us thus early to crave tbe blessing to warm, refresh, renew, us for our workt 1 ask each one to join In silent prayer for two minntea. We will then be lead in prayer by brother Ballard, of Vermont. After prayers. All TT.il tha Pftwarof Jesus' Same," sung, a stalwart dele- gate leading the tinging.

Chancellor Blake spoke, saying: I am reoueated to sav that lf there are any del egateaia the house to whom homes have not baea assigned, tbey wUl please report ia tb basement of the church: and they win be attend ed to. Will you allow me to say. first, how deeply I feel the honor you have givea moot Dreeidina ever the Citizens' meetings. I thank you i or ib i am. xooiian enougn to uunx wis convention is the most important ox au tnat have recently or wiU soon be convened We til conduct ours without the noise, tur moil and advertising that is ased to at tract to the other conventioaa, and vet ours wui he the greatest coavenaoo.

Now I don't deny that proper means should be used to call the attention of people to arrange to secure good goveraseeat, but our art is with human bearta Other works will pan away: ours rose oa forever. Wa are co-workers with God in drawing: all neople to a knowledge of Jesus. Let us look at us past, now wonaenuuv is uoa i hand aeen. God had said a little child shall lead them. Is it not a little child which has led as thus fart Uod says gather my people, that they may make a.

covenant of sacrifice. This aatnerina- recalls the great one when the anal reckoning win be made. What better sacrifice can be made than that of self? Let us lose ail and seek the glory ef God. God loves to see such a people come together. Should not our cominr recall the words for a motto: "An hatra all thr cbildreat' YOU member when the nroDbet sought a King for Israel, and bad ail of Jesse's sons pass before him.

one lad waa lacking. God would not have them ait down to tbe banauet tUl brought, i An. in the solemn review before God can we ear lovf ullv. "Are here ail thy chil dren!" Shall we say. Lord, here is the host thou hast given me? As we meet here together to get new toe ngnts.

Rev. A. F. Schauffler, of New York, fol lowed, saying: 1 raxxow-CHKiartAm. Wbaams Are Famtne suppose tbe opening of my address ought, as far as possible.

Indicate tbe spirit of our meeting to morrow. Though It may ne noia to propnesy wbat shall be, yet I shall try it. I have attended two of our conventions, and have seen the programme of this one. If I could condense the spirit of all Into four words. tbey would De; Always encoursgea, never aaUsfled.M The man who is discouraged has lost the battle.

The man wbo is dissatisfied may rearrange his armor and go on to victory. We have great cause for encouragement. Our statistical secre tary will tell us that the members ox tne nunaay- scbools in the United States and Canada number ten million, and this great army Is an army of power. And there are similar forces In foreign lands. Though we have much to be encouraged, yet if encouragement turns to satisfaction we lose.

We must be always encouraged, never satisfied. If we look at the enrollments into the church from the Sunday-echool we have much to be encouraged. A very km percent, co from the Sunday- school into the church. Yet be not satisfied, for there are some who do not. Look at our mission schools.

Some wbo attend are like tbe pu- mJm an MM lim Kiit a alvht Tlwrmmt an VMk mil are e-one next week. Tbey aradnale, No one should erer graduate from a Sunday-school; rise into tne cnurcn. must never forget the permanent object of tbe Sunday -school la conTexslon. Ye must be born agaia." Then, as to the offerings of Sunday-schools, thev are Increaaine vear bv year. The rills are risins- into Amazons and MiMissippis.

ret we are not content. The potentiality is not exhibited; it as naroiy mnteo as. 'i ae conn i eg awonat uiwcn called on Its little ones aad was raised for foreign -missions. The day is cominr when tbe little ones will lead the larger ooe in contributions for home and foreign missions. Our gratif ring statistics, our mana with colden stars on all the States, will never satisfy till all is solid gold, and then we win turn to foreign lanue ana say; are we.

and gold shall ye ne." In New York we are iust from our eon Tendons. Six missionaries sat on our platform and told ue of travel through our waste places. There are waste nieces even ia Sew York. We are not sat- isfled. We have encouragement when we look at our lesson helps.

The past year has even shown aa enormous advance. The poor worker now has a aword like Goliah. and can say, like iMtrid. -'there ia no sword KU it: five it to- tne;" yet we are not satis tied. sWi are firing too high: we are firing over the heads of the Utile ones; we must si loot lower.

We ask the convention to show es a better wav. We are content, more than con tent, with the International Lessons. Blessed be the Uod of our Bible for them. We know far more about the Bible than we did fourteen years ago, for tbey have carried us through from Genesis to Re elation. Infidels carp in vain: the Bible waa never so studied: Christianity was never so in earnest as to-dav.

But we are not satisfied. I sneak now with diffUence. For two years our lessons have been outside the gospels: two years without tbe life of Christ- Tbe Old Testament points for ward to liim and tne hptsties point oaca to mm. Give us all the ScriDtures. but more of the life of Christ.

And then we have made progreas ia theological e-hoola, and we are gratified. We are rratined with very little. Andover has added two Sunday-echool lecturers. The theological seminaries are not working up to their duties and privileges in this regard. Tbey should add a lec turer oa this Sunday-echool study and work.

bo, while we have much for encouragement, we must press forward where uod is leading. Chancellor Blake said our friend has left us in such dissatisfaction, let usunga hymn. "Xj iaita looks up co inee." of aav, Dal wood. Rev. L.

i used to think, after a twelve-year pastorate in the Old Bay btate, that a maa with a double-back-action tongue hung in the middle talking with both ends aad limbs to gesture as fast as a lamb could shake its tail, was the man for the west; this was not any reason that I went there. (Laucbter.) There are maay Christians, or rather profeesors of religion, there. The great work is to convert the church. They are blocking the road to salvation, alost of them have left their religion iaKew England and forgot send for it. Laughter.

We have 2.000 church members in a population of 100.000, we have 1-50 And many of ours remind me of the story of the tipsy man who went searching ia the cupboard formilk. His wife told him It was there; three times the assured him. He couldn't find it in the dark, and asked "Is the milk in anything-, or la it tying around looser" jaaav cnurcn memners ia Montana are not in anything: they are laying around loose. Our land ia rapidly filling up. Of tbe 300, 000 emigrants who annually lead at castle Garden, many come to our great Northwest.

God sends them to our shores. We have a work with them that is more enduring than the pyramids. Ever since the wise mea laid their nreseats at the feet of Jesus tbe tendency of everything has been westward. Why there is plenty of Virgin soil in Russia more than ia America; yet none tk tt uod ban made rree sioaary field of the world. God says to us, 'I will gather them rrom the east ana the west, ana my sons aad daughters from the ends of the earth." I want to lay before you at another time the charms of this special field.

We are uvtng in a grand aad awful time. It ia said that ia the Mosque of St. Sophia when ail the imaees were removed bv the Turks thev left tbe one that bore tbe face of the Son of God, but out a vail over it, That vail is now falling away and through the rents are seen the dear face, so in our work, tbe streaks of lights are streaming and we can see the face of tbe son or. uoa loosing through the sin that we have covered it over One of the delegates with a voioe of marvelous power and melody tang a solo: Death.
