Expre.. x,a -s Ru..ness Booming.

To no one line is the business boom
more plainly manifest than in the
business Of the Southern Express
Company in this section, since the
breaking UP of the yellow fever epis
demic. While this lasted there was a
stagnation in the business, but it too i
sudden and unprecedented bound,
and, as we learned in casual CONVEX
sation with Mr.. n. s. Wood ward, Gen.
eral Superintendent, they have had
heavier shipments, and done g more
rushing business on the line which
passes through Knoxville than has
been known for y years. The bulk of
the business, in fact most all Of it, is
going south, and the boom is now at
white heat, Christmas goods being in
acourse of transportation. There is
scarcely a time when the regular Ex-
press and mail train west does not
carry from Is, 900 to 10000 pounds OF
through Express freight.
The shipments from Knoxville have
increased very heavily also. During
the month of November, they carried
10000 more pounds OF perisbable
freight from Rockville, than in Nov.

not be dictated to, and are ready
to remove their business from Chi

Union. A number of houses did
not buy any hogs yesterday after
noon.

A BILL was passed In the House the
other day that has history. 1t is 8
claim for damages on account of a
seizure without sufficient cause of a
ship by United States Consul. The
bill was first introduced in 1913, and
has been through the mill many times
since then. Curiously enough, Mr.. Nc
Lane, who made the speech ia its favor
during this session was the man who
introduced it away back yonder 10
1848-thirty-one years ago; and Beale,
who reported it from the Committee of
Cnmmerce, was also in the House in
1848 II the claim is ast one the
heirs OF the original claimants
have a weary time in waiting until
they should have their own again.

The following from the Cincinnati
Gazette, shows the enormous increase
in the wealth of some railroad compa-
nies:
SIN 1869 the total mileage controlled
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany
was 8 ,38i New York Central, 593; Chi
cago & Northwestern 1850; Chicago,
milwaukee, & st. Paul, $50. At the
present time the mileage controlled is
as follow: Pennsylvania (eslimated),
5000; New York Central (estimated),
1900; Chicago & North " estern, 2 1853:
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul, $3.50.
The increase of mileage here shown is
almost entirely due to the absorption,
by lease or purchase, of the minor
lines"

pounds was received. The amount
shipped this year exceeds the amount
received, while last ear it was the re-

Mr.. Davis, of West Virginia, in
troduced bill to repeal all perma-
nent annual appropriations. Re-
ferred.
Mr.. Morgan offered the following
resolution: That the continuance of
the existing volume of United
States Treasury notes, with their
legal tender preserved, and the
maintenance of their equivalency
in value with coin, is demanded by
the present necessities of trade,
commerce and industry, and that
the full restoration of silver coinage
to equal with gold is necessary to
secure to the people of the United
States sufficient and permanent
supply of money, to maintain our
National prosperity.
Mr.. Morgan, in speaking on his
resolution, said that it might be un-
wise to proceed too rapidly toward
the consummation of a policy
which was theoretically acceptable.
Our present prosperity was likely
to prove temporary. Should we be
obliged to buy largely abroad We
would need all the good sound
money We possess, and probably
more. Il was unwise to withdraw
any Of fhezcurrency.
