A Grand Chief Officer Makes Grave
Charges Against Ex. Chief Wheaton.
CEDAR RAPIDS, July 5.-The RailWdy
Conductors Monthly contains highly sem
sationsl article over the signature of Will
lam P. Daniels, grand Chief Secretary of the
order, making serious charges against ex-
Grand Chief Conductor Wheaton. 1t is in
timated that Daniels is holding
back some of the worst charges, but
those put forward include double
dealing, treachery to the order and gross
misconduct in Office. Daniels admitted that
under previous pledges of support, and in
order to avoid public scandal, he long stood
by Wheaton, and says that he how exposes
him only to save himself from Wheaton's
dishonest practice of throwing the response
bility for improper acts upon his associates.
Secretary Mounts of the order, inter-
iewed at Indianapolis, says the controversy
is trivial and cannot affect the organization.

They use clotheswringer for a letter
press in one of the largest Wall street tele-
graph offices. The messages to be copied
are treated as usual until the time for the
putting of them into the press; then, instead
of the ordinary screw press which it takes
time and muscle to use the message and damp
tissue copy paper are simply run through
a clotheswringer. The rubber rollers answer
every purpose OF press, and the operation
is almost instantaneous and much easier
than the usual way. The machine is placed
at basement window, aud there is always Q
little throng on the sidewalk watching the
boys wiring out messages.
