"The craw for fast time on railway is taking a new feature," observed a prominent railroad official to Star writer recently. "It is the shortening of lines and reconstruction of surveys In order to make a given line as . straight as possible between two points. It is, in fact, a scheme to make time by saving distance. A railway with out a curve or a cutting is, of course, a Splendid thing from an engineering standpoint, but it is a very tedious affair to the passenger. To thoroughly realise how extremely monotonous a long journey on a railway without a curve or cutting is, one must travel on the road from Buenos Ay re to the Andes. That railroad beats all known records for having 200 miles of tracks almost on a- line, such as mathemati cians describe as the shortest distance between any two points. No one who has not seen this remarkable stretch of road, straight in front and behind as far as the eye can reach, even when aided by a field glass, can grasp what it means or what an amount of wearisome monotony it involves and entails."

Only good report are received from distributive trade centers, and some markets report fall demand aa holding out longer than expected. Kailway earnings, bank clearing, re turns and quotations of staple prices are all encouraging, pointing a they do to a maximum volume of business for this period of the year. Crop re turns tor October bear our earlier im pressions of shortened yields of most loading agricultural products. Expec tation of more moderate yields of lead ing cereals is not confined to this coun try; the world' wheat crop will admit tedly be smaller, and rye, barley and oats yield are not expected to be so large as a year ago. The higher range of price of all staple, and particularly of agricultural product, will furnish a profitable balance of producers. The liberality of foreign demand Is, perhaps, beet known In the September report of exports of leading product. Shipment of breadstuff are as large as those of August, and there was natur ally a heavy gain in cotton exports, which are doubled those of the same month a year ago. Total of leading exports show an increase of 23 per cent over September, 1890, but a decrease of 8.5 per cent from September 1897, which witnessed very heavy shipments of breadstuff.
