Freight shipments over the main line of the Pennsylvania railroad between Pittsburg and New York last week broke all records for a like period in the history of the system. In the niatti r of the number of cars moved it was the greatest week that has ever been known, not only on the Pennsylvania but on any other road in the United States or Europe. The total of daily movements on ttoe three main line divi sions of the lines east of Pittsburg hov ered close to 20.000 cars, and in one in stances a maximum for one day ship ments was reached when the cotnpain handled 22,280 cars. This represents the total shipment for one day over the Pittsburg, middle aud Philadelphia divisions. The New York Central has decided to spend more thans4 700,000 in reliv ing all the main line tracks with liH)_ pouuds rails. Orders for 85.000 tons of rails have been placed and the work of laying them has been staited The action marks a new era in the opera tion of railroads. Only last year the company was busy renewing old rail? with the 85-pound type, and now these are to be replaced with still heavier ones This will require 170,000 tons of rails, all of which will be purchased in this country except 25,000 tons, which are to be secured in Canada for the Michigan Central lines there.

September 17th, 1905. the Butler County Merchants Mutual Fire Insur ance Company was three years old, and the Board of Directors feel proud that in that time it has called upon its policy holders for but one assessment to pay a fire loss. Paying the loss it had with the promptness it did spoke well for the Company at the time; as it had been do ing business but 105 days and had less than $170,000.00 of insurance written up when it met with a loss of #0,000.00 which was paid in full 30 days after the nre, On June Ist, 1905, it passed the half million mark and from present indica tions the one million mark will be reached before a great while as hardly a day passes but what it has inquiries and applications. The consei vative uourso they pursue in selecting their risks keeps the busi ness down to a slow but healthy growth as they have rejected more than SIOO,- 000 00 worth of business that might have cost them considerable more in fire loss than what they have been call ed upon to meet in the past three years.
