6 RAILROAD AFFAIRS. Orders from different roads for new steel lreisht cars amounting to $2,000, OOu were placed last month. Station Agent White, of the Delaware Hudson, was on the sick list yesterday. Engine 820, of the Lackawanna road, that went into the mud at Cres co at the time of the ice train runaway recently, was run down to the shops here yesterday. The big 'hog" was a sorry sight.

Supt. Salisbury, of the Lackawanna, has directed that in all cases where a damaged car is taken on back of a caboose a brakeman must ride the car. Hereafter no ice will be carried on the Lackawanna in box cars of less than 60,000 pounds capacity if possible to avoid it. Sir. F.

J. Griffith, formerly assistant to the Lackawanna road's division superintendent at Hoboken, is now running a hotel at Asbury Park. Being a popular railroad man it naturally follows that his hostelry is a success. Along the Lake Shore line at intervals are sign boards bearing the words "proceed at full speed." They are placed at points where engineers are expected to make up time and indicate that there is a clear track ahead, with nothing to prevent their going ahead as rapidly as the wheels can he turneu The Lake Shore is said to be the only road that uses these signs. The Wabash and Rock Island roads have given up paying by checks, going back to the old plan of handing over the cash.

The Lackawanna pays in money at Scranton and Buffalo, but elsewhere in checks, and every month there is a fervent wish all around that the checkbooks could be thrown over in favor of the real thing. It is not believed, however, that the company will abolish the check system. According to the state superior court, ticket scalping must go. A decision was handed down in Philadelphia last week affirming the decision of the Allegheny county court in the test case of the commonwealth against Edward Keary, a ticket broker of Pittsburg, who was found guilty under the act of 18G3. This act was framed for the purpose of preventing the unauthorized sale of railroad tickets, and is aimed at all persons who sell tickets without a proper certificate from the railroad company.

The telegraph operators who hold "keys" in the various superintendent's offices of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company located in Philadelphia, Har risburg and Altoona are feeling "mighty good" these nice warm July days. They were notified several days ago that their salaries had been increased to the extent of $5 per month which is to date from July 1. The Lackawanna operators in this city have heard of the good luck of the Pennsylvania men with mingled feelings that can be imagined as well as described. They have not heard of any proposed benefit their way, but would appreciate it. The Railroad Gazette says that the new railway projects in the United States amount to 1,205 by 010 companies, 1S8 new lines and improvement, by 13S companies in Canada, and 51 new lines and extensions by 42 companies in Mexico.

New lines, extensions and improvements on which building is in progress number 465, of which 407 are in the T'nited States, 3(i in Canada and 22 is Mexico. The estimated new railway mileage for the first half of the year is 2,117 miles, ae alnst 1.1S1 miles in the same time in 1S00. Owing to a row between the president and treasurer of the Order of Railway Telegraphers a special session of the organization is to be held at St. Louis October 1, LACKAWANNA BOARD.
