CHICAGO, July 1.-THE managers Of
tine Western roads met to-day to fur
Their consider the committees report on
the adjustment OF rates from the Mis-
souri, river and points beyond. The
Atcbison, Topeka & Santa Fe effectually
blocked the scheme by refusing to agree
to the proposed reduction in grain rates
from Kansas and Nebraska points to
the Missouri river. 1t insisted OIL pro-
tecting its through business by presery-
ing greater difference than cents per
100 pounds between the through rate
and the sum of the locals. No
amount of argument could induce
the Atchison to abandon its
position, and this part of
the report was temporarily passed. The
meeting then took up the proposed adj
vance in cattle rates from 1913 to %
cents per 100 pounds Kansas City to
Chicago. The Chicago IL Alton was III
favor OF the advance provided there
should be an agreement among the roads
in interest as to the proportion OF the
cattle traffic each was entitled to, and a
division made upon that basis. All the
lines assented to this except the Chi
cago, Milwaukee -t& st. Paul, which
steadily opposed it. The result was
that no conclusion was reached. Finally
a new committee was appointed COM
posed of Chairman Walker, President
Cable, of the Rock Island; President
Manvel,o the Atchison; Vice President
Newman, of the Chicago 81 Northwest

WOMEN WHO MERIT FAME.

The name of Florence Nightingale
has been familiar to two generations
and will continue to hold high place
in history through the services she rem
dered to suffering men. Miss Nightin-
gale was called 1.-THE Angel of the
Crimea" by the grateful British soldiers
who owed so much to her for her splen-
did work during the war with Russia.
A few weeks ago. on the occasion, of her
seventieth birthday. all England rang
with her praises. The Prince OF Wales
delivered eulOgy of her at the training
school for nurses. which she mad round
ed in London, and Queen Victoria sent
her letter of congratulation by spec
al messenger. But that day was one of
grief for her, for the telegraph had
brought the news of her sisters death.
Miss Nightingale was the daughter OF
an English country gentleman and was
barn in Florence. Italy, while the family
were on continental tour. While
mere girl she developed the benevolent
disposition which has since made her
famous. She nursed Arabs in Egypt,
spent much of her time in the London
hospitals, and finally resolved to devote
herself entirely to hospital work. She
became pupil at German hospital
and went through regular course or
training. Just before the Crimean war
she founded hospital for sick
governesses. Reading ''Buil Run"

her services to Sidney Herbert, the sec
rotary for war, and they were promptly
accepted. Her splendid work, there
and its beneficent results are Known
throughout the world. On her return
to England she was presented with
e5O,oOO raised by popular subscription.
She did not apply penny of it to her
own use, but applied it to the founding
of training school for nurses, which is
a permanent success. During the Am
erican civil war she was in constant
correspondence with the lady nurses
who attended the military hospitals and
gave them much valuable advice, but
the bad state of her health prevented
her from coming in person.

preston that the Pioneer Press is his
