In commenting on the meeting of the officials
Of the roads in the Transcontinental Pool Asso-
citation, held a few days since, in San Francisco,
the Chronicle says: Our masters, the Trans
continental Pool Association, have transacted
the business before them and are now prepared
to return to their homes. The essential point
the defeat of competition by the Atlantic g.
Pacific on the south and by the Northern
Pacific on the north-was adjusted to the emf
nent satisfaction of our masters, and thus all is
serene. There were guileless observers who
believed that, when the Northern Pacific
reached Portland and the Atlantic & Pacific
secured the Mojave branch, California would
enjoy the advantages of competing railway lines
to the East. They now see how simple they
were. The cute Yankees who own the Atlantic
and Pacific have pooled their earnings with the
Southern and Central Pacific, and the Northern
Pacific has again accepted a subsidy of s per
cent. of the gross traffic on condition of refusing
to carry goods or passengers to California at the
tariff rates. Both bargains are in violation of

Rough Times for Railroading.

Passenger trains on the Northern and eastern
roads are still more or less troubled with snow
drifting and the severe cold. and are arriving at
the Union Depot, a majority of them several
hours late, although all Indianapolis lines are
sgain running their full complement of passen.
ger trains, hauling such trains, in many
cases with two or three engines, which is an un-
usual thing TO do over the roads Of Central Indi-
ana Freight traffic is practically at a stand-still,
especially through business. The roads that
we're willing TO cut rates some 5 or 7 cents below
the regular tariff have, from force of circum-
stances, been Obliged TO slow up, and at Chicago
he roads have felt obliged to advance rates be-
rause of the freight blockade along their respect
we lines. not that the roads are wholly blocked.
mt they feel that it is ali they can do to pull
II rough their passenger trains. All of the East
e., Iines have now on hand more freight than
they can handle. and it is believed the same will
be true of indianapolis roads as soon as the

Miscellaneous Notes.

Traffic Manager Reeve, of Grand Trunk, is
quoted as saying that he expected the rate war
to last five or six weeks more before the roads
got tired of it.
The earnings of thirty-seven railroads for the
second week of January aggregated So. 468. 1913.
against So, 205, 049 for the corresponding week of
last year, an increase of 1868, 749.
A prominent Boston grain shipper says he has
been offered 300 cars over the New York Central
any time in six months at the lowest rates ever
made. No prospect of peace in that.
w. r. White, general passenger and ticket
agent of the Santa Fe road, gives notice that
holders Of immigrant tickets to points in Cali
fornia, reading via this line, will hereafter be al
lowed the privilege Of stopping off at all points
en- route in the State of California that they may
have an opportunity to see the country, examine
lands offered for sale, and satisfy themselves as
to the inducements for location at points short of
destination of their through tickets.
In commenting upon the recent strike of train
men at Fort Wayne the. Railway World says:
with demagogues in Congress and some
of the State legislatures crying out for stringent
regulations of railway charges and methods that
would prevent some of the practices necessary to
maintain solvency, and with employees, on the
other hand, ~contending for the right to dictate
how railroads shall be operated mechanically,
the outlook would be by no means cheerful if we
did not remember that even the excuses of folly
sometimes exert a curative influence, and that
common sense and common justice have not yet
been exterminated."
The Atchison, Topeka s. Santa Fe is reported,
from Boston, to have earned, in 1884, So, 600, 900
above interest charges and dividends. The
bonded debt and contingent liabilities of the
Atchison, Topeka 6 Santa Fe railroad, Jan. %,
and comparisons given Herewith, show that the
Atchison has a far lighter Indebtedness than the
average sof railroads of its size and character.
The Union Pacific, with about the same number
of miles of road as the Atchison company, has a
funded debt of over $40, 900, 900. The Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy, with less than twice as
much road. has three times as great a bonded
debt as the Atchison.

Bound Freight Rates.

CHICAGO, Jan. 28.-All the east-bounG trunk
lines to-day restored freights to a tariff whichis on
the basis of 81 cents per 100 pounds for grain, and
80 cents for provisions. Very little hope is ex-
pressed that the restoration will outlast the snow
blockade. Representatives of the Southwest
railroad, interested in Virginia business, met to
consider the question of reducing rates to a basis
corresponding with current rates to the eastern
seaboard. AS it was found, however, that the
latter had restored tariff charges, it was decided
to make no reduction.

The Troubles of a Railway Manager.

The Troubles of a Railway Manager.
The general manager Of a system of Indian
apolis roads Monday last, remarked that the hos
tility to railroads in this country was more detri-
mental to their interest than are rate wars.
Farmers, merchants, justices of the peace, courts,
common pleas courts, circuit courts, all seem
to have conceived the idea that no action or de-
cision they make against railroads can be un-
just If a boy jumps onto q train at a station,
should the conductor put him off, he Is sued by
the parents of the boy; if he falls beneath the
wheels and is crushed to death, they claim, and
usually get damages unless the road carry the
case to the highest court. If the company main
tains a good fence and a farmer knocks some of
the boards off, and his cattle get upon the
company's ground to feed, and then stroll upon
the track and are killed. the road is asked to
pay for such stock. To show what dishonesty
there was in rendering accounts against a rail
road, he stated that a few years ago their COM
pany built 100 miles of road. hauled every cross
tie used in its construction from another State,
even the cross-ties for the side-track, yet three
farmers presented bills against the company.
When payment was refused, they in each case
sued the company and obtained judgment, the
farmers swearing to the account. The railroad
official mentioned another incident of recent
date. A carload of coal was shipped from an
Ohio mine TO a Toledo coal dealer. He claimed
never to have received 1t; threatened
suit for the coal; the company paid
for it, but under protest, as the matter was un-
der investigation, which investigation resulted
only last week in showing that the original car
in which the coal was shipped broke down at
Troy, o., the coal was transferred to another
car, he received the very coal, had never paid
for it. and knew all the time the circumstance
attending the transfer of the coal from one car
to the other. Frequently claims for cattle killed
OH the track, he said, were presented that the
company knew were never killed, the cases
would come up in court, the evidence of section
men, no matter how probable, was considered
untruthful by justices of peace, andthe same is
true in some county courts. TIL company's
witnesses were always seemingly looked upon as
less truthful than the men who sued for damages,
and whose testimony was of a doubtful charac-
ter. When such cases were carried to higher
courts the railroad companies were more apt to
secure justice, but it was often better
to pay such claims, avoiding the annoy
ance and expense of carrying the cases higher.
These, he said, were but few of dozens Of sim
liar cases he could name. The fact is, said the
manager, no matter how square and honorable a
railway management may be, they can never
satisfy certain classes of people, and there
seemed to be no end to the schemes SUCH men
would devise to extort money from railroad COM

upon the integrity of the Democracy's
honest administrations.
We hold that the Democracy of Indiana
was sincere in that promise. We know that
the majority OF voters, blushing for the
official corruption, Jobs and thefts that have
disgraced the last several Republican Ma
tional administrations, are conscientiously
DESTROYS of a return to the honest methods
that characterized the long reign of Democ-
racy before the Repu 3lican party introduced
the shameful practice of covering up or con-
doning rascality in high places and main
tanning the occupants of them in power.
Thus holding, the State Democracy would,
if consulted, favor such accounting from its
public servants as would have no ground
upon which our political opponents could
found imputation of irregulsritY or con-
ceaIment.
The strength of our party will be greater
and its lease of power longer in proportion
as our methods are most strikingly in con-
trast with Republican methods, which ap-
proved or white-washed populations by Re-
publican officials--which made possible
whisky ring frauds. land grant frauds, Credit
Mobilier frauds, election frauds aud all the
frauds that have wronged the people of the
country and disgrsced our civil administra-
tons.
Our Democratic majority in the Lsgisla-
ture will, by strengthening the safeguards
about public funds, commend the party to
the increased confidence OF the whole people.
By demonstrating a fearless determination
to keep watch and ward over the interests OF
the taxpayers and to see to it that public
trusts are administered as for the people
rather than for individual ACKNOWLEDGMENT,
privilege and emolument. will most surely
deserve and win the continued support of
the people.
1t is in this faith that the Sentinel has
spoken and will continue to speak in behalf
of the Democracy of Indiana.

THE WOMAN WHO SHOT o'DoNoyAN RossA
The career OF the woman who shot o Dom
ovan Rosa can not, as.yet. be fully related.
She came to this country last September,
and has been employed as nurse in various
places for the greater part of the time since
then. She is cultured and refined, and pos
sesses considerable personal attractions.
Her complexion Is very fair and clear; her
hair light. brown, and her teeth white and
regular. Mrs. Dudley is tall and long,
WASTED, and neatly dressed in black. She
converses elegantly in English, and is mis-
tress of the "brogue" spoken by the coun-
trymen of her victim, also. it is said, OF Irish.
These latter accomplishments seem TO have
led Rosa to suppose that he was establishing
a patriotic intimacy with an Irish woman.
He evidently did not suspect that she was
English, and indeed it appears that she
is 20 only by the accident of her biIth
in England neither her father nor mother
being q native of that country. Ii seems
that her mother YVES an Irish woman. As
everybody is acquainted with the circum
stances of the shooting which has given her
notoriety, there is no need to detail the
simple plot she laid to acquaint herself with
Rossa's political secre Is, and TO shoot him.
he seems to have given her his confidence:
but refused to sign receipt for cash he had
not received.
The British consul at New York denies
having taken any steps towards defending
Mrs Dudley and so far nothing has APP
peared to justify the con jecture that she is
acting in behalf OF the British authorities

THE GRANT FUND.
cessor.

For the benefit of the discussion over the
proposal to retire General Grant on a Gen.
erals pay it may be as well to read what Mr..
John 7. Ferry, one of the trustees of the
Grant fund of $3.50, 000 has co say. 1t will
be remembered that this fund was invested
in Wabash bonds, on which the estate of
Ex-Governor E. D. Morgan is held to guar
sntee of interest to the expiration of ten
years from Mr.. Morgsn's contract. Mr..
Ferry on being asked to give true state
ment of the condition of the fund said:
1.-THE Wabash bonds at present pay an inter.
est of something over 6 per cent. and are
valuable. Their value in . few years will
increase, and the investment is by no means
uncertain. There is not Morgan heir that
knows anything about the Grant fund, or
even in what bonds the money has been
placed. Furthermore, the guarantee of
Governor Morgan has six years to run in
stead of three. By the time the guarantee
has expired, the bonds will be worth good
deal OF money"
Six per cent. on $4,000 amounts to SIS
600 year, or 81, $50 per month, or $41.66 per
day. 1t does appear that even a distin-
guished man might live on that sum pretty
comfortably. There is many gallant
soldier, still suffering from wounds received
in battle, who would deem General Grants
monthly income big one per year for the
balance of his life.
