Lancaster, Pa.
LAHOABTEB, PA., October 5, 1889.
The Opening: of Tracks.
We have mere thau once had occasion
te suspect that President Geerge B.
Roberts docs net have an Intimate
knowledge of the mode of mauagemeu
of the Pennsylvania railroad by his
subordinates ; for what he writes nbeut
its policy seems te be contradicted often
by Its practice.
Reading his letter te Mr. flecves,
while journeying te Philadelphia, we
noted with particular Interest his
declaration that "it has always been
the policy of the Pennsylvania
railroad company te open Its tracks te
all railroad companies which will In
return afford It equal facilities." Know Knew
ing that the Pennsylvania railroad has
net in fact heretofore opened its tracks
in Lancaster te the Heading railroad
company, we determined te call at lis
office te see whether such connection
could new le had or; If net, whether
the fault was with the Reading railroad.
We found that, under a late arrange
ment, the Reading and Pennsylvania
companies give rates te shippers ever
each ether's read j but we also feuud
that these rates arc bluiply the sum of
the local raics of the two companies and
are worth little or nothing te the ship
pern. WoXeund, further, that the two
reads " opened their tracks" te each
ether at three points only, namely :
Phlladelphla,Harrlsburg and Montgom
ery; and that this opening of trucks was
only a convenience te the shipper and
was net accompanied by a concession in
rates. Fer iustance, sixth clara freight
in carloads from Lancaster te Philadel
phia either read, Is charged elx cents
per hundred pounds; whereas if ship
ped by one read te n place in Philadel
phia en the ether read, the rate ia eleven
cents.
Manifestly no business can be profited
by an "opening of tracks" that costs
the shipper mere than the cost of haul
ing in wagons ; aud under the clrcum
tnuccs,we lest the lively Interest we had
felt in securing the opening of these
tracks te each ether in this city by the
Reading and Pennsylvania reads. If
they propose te charge the shipper mero
te get en their tracks, after they are
opened, than the carluge would cost,
obviously they may as well ktcp them
closed se far as the local business inter
est is concerned.
But it certainly does net reflect well
upon the inagnamnity, geed sense and
public spirit of the management of these
corporations that their tracks.whlch run
side by side through the town,,
should net be open te each ether ;
and it does net sjcak well for the
energy aud wisdom of the authorities of
this city that this should be permitted
by it. The city has sufficient control of
the railroads te secure from them a
proper consideration of Its Interests, if
its officers were wise and vigor
ous enough te exercisel t. lint
they arc net of this kind ; and
the city is bound te t Iwhlud in the
race of industry until seme ene docs
arise te lead It te the employment of the
abundant resources it has. te secure fair
ETntmcnt from the railroads it deals
"Mi se tenderly and that abuse It ie
grossly,
Sew is the chauce for our city
councils. They have the published
declaration of President Roberts, that
he Is ready te open his read here te the
Reading. Let them ask him en what
terms ; let them knew from him whether
he will open his tracks at a price that
will enable our people te avail them
K'lvca of the concession ; aud then
let .them them sec whether Pres
cient Cerbln will refuse the ac
commodation which President Rob Reb
erta offers. He will net de it, in
view of the particular importance te his
read of concord with the city.
De our councils realize that there has
net been for years, If ever, any connec
tion of the Reading and Pennsylvania
railroads nearer te this city thau Lnndis
ville? And that new this connec
tion is cut off, and that Harritburg
is the nearest iieliit of Junction?
De they understand that the Interests uf
merchant) und manufacturers demand
free communication with all sections of
the country at the lowest rates of
freight; and that the city with the
best and cheapet facilities for nnch
Interchangn is sought for as the
neat of manufacture? If they de realize
this, they must bee the hiiertnucc of
securing for Lancaster the opening te
each ether of all of the railroad tracks
within the city limits ; and an agree
ment by the railroads te charge a fair
und net a hoggish rate of freight, such
as that of eleven cents by the Joint Hues
te Phlladelphia.when the charge hv one
line is six ccut.
The Philadelphia Jitcenl Uuds that
President Roberts is net posted as te
another matter concerning which he
niudc positive declaration in the same
better te Mr. Reeves. He said that no
terminal charge in Philadelphia was
made by the railroad ; whereas it ap
pears that such a charge In transporta
tion in the city is made by creating a
"constructive distance" between cltv
points whereby one mile actual distance
Is charged for u constructive dlstance
of five, ten, or twenty miles, it
is clear that this Is iu effect
a terminal charge. The Jlccerd thinks
that President Roberts kuews better
we rather Incline te the opinion that he
la either net posted by his subordinates
or that his letter was signed by him
without carefully reading Its contents.

Di.srATcncs from Spain say Hint tlie
government Is watching the congress of
the thre Americas with anxiety. Spanish
Liberals and Itcpuhllcans believe with Cas
telar that the principles of protection are
contrary te the essential pilnclples of
domeorncy, "because they croate in a
modem democracy a new feudalism and nn
oligarchy of plutocrats with their clients
certain privileged classes or operatives
as against the majority of their fellow
citliena." The Snlards evidently fear
that there may be aeme kind of Interna
tional American protection system con
templated that would threaten their com
merce with the Spanish Rpcaktng Seqth
Americana. It Is significant in this con
nection that n Spanish American Congress
is new talked of at Buones Ayres.
'
Tun New Yerk Iferahl nays that English
holders of Confederato bends are very
serious In insisting that the Seuth wants
capital, and Americans are constantly
visiting England te raise money te develop
Seuthern nntural resources. These poeplo
are told Hint their credit In worthless by
reason of Seuthern repudiation, but that if
they will'brlng about the payment of one
per cent, en the bends, the wealthy bank
ing heuses holding them will advance the
capital w anted. This dctunndjn te be ro re ro
peated for evcry large lean. This is a
rather improbable nxplnnatien, bulitlsone
of the 'wonders of the day that cautious
Englishmen should have bought Cen fed fed
erule bends when Americana weie hurn hurn
thein, aud that tliey even new held en te
them.
Wnr.N the Episcopal liouse of deputies,
in frosslen in New Yerk, transformed Itselt
into a mlslennry council en Friday It is
recorded that Bishop Whlpple took the
chair otllred In black rebes, purple velvet
skull cap and purple silk ribbon te Ids e; o e
glassos. The care for artlstle harmony
evinced by the use of the purple si I It rib
bon should net pnst unnoticed. The silk
ribbon should be cnthuslnKtlcally wel
comed as a feature of ecclesiastical uniform,
and if drawn ever the right ear and lied in
a bow the effect might be considerably en
hanced. Ir is announced that there will boanethcr
trial trip of the cruiser Baltimore, as the
official report shows that the herse )ower
was a little, less thau required and net
lnrgely In excess of requirements us at llrst
rcjKrtcd. It Ik ex plained that the Indica
tors used had net been tested. We seem
te have crewed tee neon ever our fust
cruiser, but slie did nobly In speed at any
rate.
Hu.MeiiisT "lleu" Buiti'BiTn was a
prominent figure In the lecent conference
of the Philadelphia Ilaptist association. Te
a comment en the mixing of fun and re
ligion he replied: " Religion Is the wave or
lll'ej humor the scintillations that sparkle
en Its stirface."
Mr. Burdetle might have carried the
metaphei further, and Introduced wicked
ness as sea-dckneti.
Uoeu voices are comparatively rare in
this part of the hind, and it has been
shrewdly gu cased by musicians and phys
icians that the limestone dust from our
highways lias something te de with it.
And new u Dr. Kiinze, or the Uuivcraity or
Kiel, (lermany, publishes u report or a
serics of examinations of lungs atlccted by
the breathing of dust, ile finds that "dust
lungs," n he calls these se Injured, are
affoetcd net only according te the quantity
but also according te the kind of dust.
" He concludes from his experiments that
even the greatest alterations In lliose lungs
such as nodes, Induratiens aud vemica)
are mainly prodttced by the inhaled dust,
and that tubcrculeslx is only an occasional
coincidence. The IcuM serious alteration
In the lungs resulted from the Inhalation
of huilp-hlack, Hie particles of which are
very line and little injurious; the most
serious, from the dust Inhaled by carthou cartheu
ware manufacturers and stuno-masens."
There seems te be geed reason te conclude
that hewever fortumile I.uncastiians may
be in the geuurul hcalthuilucsH or their
surroundings their lungs and lives ere
threatened by the line dust from tiie streets
supplied Willi tireleks liberality by a street
committee that will use son stone.

One only realizes tlie ti no Ircsliuess and
truth or Wogel, the dignity and pathos of
Ttirgenief and Tolstoi after reading tlie
three studies which comprise Dupuy's
book. W will reread the works of the
"Great Mastcis of Kussian Literature"
with double enjoyment aud undcislaudlng
alter having had this key. Mr. Dupuy is
an enthusiastic admirer of these authors,
but he Is erfiH.tlyJust. The llrst essay In
the hook Is en Nikolai tlogel. Gegel's llrst
cflbrtsdid net meet with success, and It was
only after he ceased being a copy
ist nud determined te be himself that
his writings were greeted w itli enthusiasm.
He went back te the impressions of Ids
childhood and get his mateilal around the
Male-ltussiau hearth. Alwajs a poet, at
first he began te write Iu rhyme, but he
discovered u poet cannot always adapt
hlinseir in verse; It was only when he had
thrown oft" the formulas of romanticism
that the brilliant satirist and precocious ob eb ob
servor were revealed. Being a poet he
went te nature for his niodels ; he was
almen the llrst Hussiau writer who was
net an imitator.
Tlie subject el'Mr. Dupuy's second study,
Ivan Turgculer, must be intensely inter
esting te overy one. The full sadness and
sull'orlngef Ids life were known te Mr.
Dupuy, who knew him iierseually. Mis
judged and censured by his countrymen, a
prey te Intcnse homesickness, and suller
Ing, physically, the most intolerablo agony
from an Incurable disease, Ttirgenief was
at times heart-broken, but never envious.
Ills gladness In the success of his friends
and his humble opinion eflilscwu merits
were touching te theso who came In con
tact with his great mind. Mr. Dupuy, It is
evident, Is net in the same sympathy with
Count Tolstoi as he Is with cither Gegel or
Turgculer; or is it that we, his readers, loci
after leaving Turgenler, at rest ufter all the
weariness el' his life, as we feel en coming
away rrem the funeral of ene dear te us,
and at ouce being brought In clese contact
with a mil, vigorous life, a man who at
another tlme we would admire and enjoy?
But new the contrast is se great ; it Jars, us
it were, and Turgeuief has upicaled te our
hearts as much as te our minds, se that in
leaving him we feel as If we were leaving
ene near te us.
We feel tlmt the translator docs net de
himself Jmtlee when he tay "that te
transfer Inte English the style which marks
Mr. Dupuy's essays is an Impossibility."
Mr. Dole is correct In calling them works
of art, but the translation is also a work of
at t. The appendix adds much te the inter
est of the bonks and for that also Mr. Dele
Is responsible.
