THIS Is VILLARD'S IDEA,

Tests Of Long Distance Electric Roads To
BE Made.
In his annual report as president OF the
North American company, Henry Willard
says: ''Of great Importance and much
promise for the future of this company,
Your board considers the theoretical and
practical investigation that has been made
under its suspioes during the last year, by
the best obtainable experts, into the practi-
cability Of substituting electricity az a mo-
tive owe for the propulsion of passenger
and freight trains on ordinary standard
railroads. These Investigations have been
carried on both IN this country and in Eu-
rope, and have sufficiently advanced to war
rant the announcement that practical ex-
periments with electrical locomotives will
DO undertaken during the current fiscal
For that purpose your company. has
secured the cooperation of the General
Electric company and of the General Elec-
tricity company, of Berlin, Germany. Two
systems. with both overhead and
surface conductors, the latter devised by
the last mentioned company, will be tried.
The North American company will have the
exclusive right of exploiting the surface
system in this country, which is endorsed
by leading electricians in Germany.

TAMMANY'S GREAT WORK.

Something About the Winner of the Rich
Realization Stakes.
When Marcus Days great horse Tam
many won the rich realization stakes at
Sheepshead Bay on Saturday, he added one
more to his series of successes. The Ana
oonda Standard gives a brief history of this
aristocratio young Thoroughbred. He is a
three-year-old. He was foaled March %, 1889,
at the Belle Meade farm, Nashville, Tenn,
and was bought by Mr.. Daily At a sale of
yearlings in New York city. His sire. Iro-
quois. one of the grandest race horses ever
bred in America, made the tour of the
English turf, and he enjoys the distinction
of being the only horse that has o Eng
lands three greatest stakes-the Derby,
the Prince of Wales stakes at Ascot and,
the st. LeRer at DoncRster.
Tammany's first important performance
as a two-year-old was the winning of the
Great Eclipse stakes in June, 1891. This he
did to the surprise of Matt Byrnes and the
lads in the DAILY stable. Tradition has it
that the stable backed Sir Matthew that
day. It was a six-furlong race; the time
was l:1214; the purse netted to the winner
$24, $50. Two months later, as the winner
of the Criterion stakes, Tammany added
$5.49O net to his bank account. In the run
for the Futurity. last year. he got a bad
start and failed to make it good.
This year, Tammany started in by win
ming the Withers stakes and doing it in
gallant style. On the books of the stable
S7,46O have been passed to his credit for
this performance. Coming i'll second last
week in the run for the Tidal stakes, he won
$500, where he ought to have taken first
money handily. He had already beaten
Patron. the only horse rated to be- really in
the race with him. but Garrison was caught
mapping and Charade got home first.
The race of Saturday was the fourth run
for the realization stakes. First on the list
of winners, in 1889. was J.. B. Haggin's
Salvador, whose amous battle with Jenny
is ono of the traditions Of the turf. abe
late Senator Hearst's Tournament took this
stake in 1890. winning a sensational race
and surprising the turfmen. Last year the
was awarded to Potomac of tho
Belmont stables, although thousands of
declared that the first place was
fairly taken by Montana. In each of these
years the time was 2:51, with the track in
splendid condition. Tammany's time Sat-
with the course in wretched shape.
is therefore more noteworthy-he did the
distance, a mile and tive-eighths in 2:51 2-5.

AS TO REDUCED RATES.

Railroads VIII BE More Careful In the
Future About Granting Them.
Upon request of a member of the West
ern Passenger Association, Chairman Cald-
we'll has docketed for consideration at the
July meeting a proposition to restrict the
number of occasions for which reduced
rates may be granted. The complaint is
made that the amount of business done on
account of these gatherin gs does not in
many cases justify q reduction in rates; in
fact, that 1T does not pay for tho extra
work necessary to issue the circulars, The
association rule of both the Western and
Trans Missouri Passenger Association is
that the number of people carried to insure
q reduced rate shall be 100. This must be
guaranteed before the association will
authorize the rate. VIII enthere is likely to
be any question as to the number. tickets
are sold on the certificate plan. and the
association signing the certificates is BUD
posed not to sign any until the full number
has been received. The secretary of the Or
Ranlzation securing the reduced rate is not
always careful, however, to see thai this is
the case, and oftentimes less than one half
the required number of tickets are sold. In
the matter of open rates the case il often
worse. The Trans-Missouri's report of tick
cts sold at reduced rates for any one month
IN 1881 shows that many cases whore reduced
rates were authorized not q single ticket
was sold and in the majority of cases tho
number liz not reach fifty. For instance.
during the month of September, 1891, which
IL one OF the big meeting months, reduced
rates were authorized in trans-Missouri ter
Eitory for 260 meetings. OF this number
less than fifty tickets were sold to ninety
eight of them and to only forty-nine of
them were more than 100 tickets soId. and
shis 10 above the average.
The railroads claim that il has come to a
point that every organization, no matter
how small a membe ship, think on everv
occasion on which it is to hold a ~spcciAl
meeting it is entitled to q reduced rate.
1t makes the statement to the association
shat it will have over 100 persons to carry.
and the rate is authorized in the majority
OF the cases with the result mentioned. In
the Central Traffic association all reduced
rate tickets to small meetings are sold on
the certificate plan and then a clerk of the
association Is sent to the meetings to sign
the certificates, with positive instr lotions
not to sign q single one until 100 have been
presented to BIN. This is doubtless the
plan which will be adopted by the Western
Passenger association and later by the
IrhuBmiSBOuri.
All the general passenger agents in the
country have been annoyed with the lay
way in which the rule has been enforced.
and after the July meeting of the associa-
tion 1t will doubtless be more difficult to
secure reduced rates for special GATHERINGS.

future is to be measured by his phenominal
success this season, it is going to be a
glorious one. His singing voice is bird

his own. He is the incarnation Of graceful
repose, and his smile has that something in
it that reminds one of a sunny summer
