are the prey of the train robber, and II Ia
their safety that must be provided for. K.
Is. Pope, western passenger agent of the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway, has a simple
device that seems to solve the problem. His
idea Is to equip every safe with two locks
which interiock with each other. and which
he calls clock No. 1" and ''lock No. 81 and
to paint on the outside Of the safe the fol-
lowing:
EoTICE.-In case of assault by robbers.
throw the combination of lock No. 2. This safe
can then DO opened ONLY by the agent at the
terminal station
Lock No. can be either an ordinary key
lock or a combination lock. II Is connect
ed with lock No. by small steel bar
which works in and out OF the com binatio..
OF lock No. - the messenger locks and
unlocks No. |. the tnmblers N lock No. Q
when in their normal position being always
set at 'open" and held In that position by
simple mechanism to prevent the jar Of
the train or an accidental knock from
throwing them ont of position and locking
lock No ..
The messenger knows the com bination of
lock No. | or has key to unlock Il, but he
does not know the combination Of lock No.
2, and II he once throws of the combina-
ton OF lock No ? IL is utterly impossible
for him to unlock and open the safe, and
the painted notice on the door will apprise
the train robbers Of the fact.
The number OF men who are skilled
enough to blow open n safe quickly are
very few, and of that few the number who
would care to combine train robbing with
safe blowing are fewer still. and the bust
ness having thus been made improbable
for regular practitioners 1t In probable they
would abandon IL and seek some other field
OF operations
The likelihood Of their killing the mes
senger In revenge for throwing on the COM
bination OF lock No. 3 is not great, as expe-
rience has shown that they do not kill him
now because he cannot open the through
safes. But IL they did kill him they would
be no better of, as they could not get the
valuables.

CHICAGO, June 23.-Chairman Midgley
of the Western Freight association, tele-
graphed the Great Northern, Northern
Pacific and Union Pacific railroads, call
ing attention to the special freight on
wool from the north Pacific coast termi-
nails to the Atlantic seaboard at rate
81 .05 per 100 pounds, and requesting that
as eastern lines will not accept less than
local rates east of this city, his name has
been Withdrawn from that tariff, and no
shipments Hereunder will be delivered to
the lines in the Western Freight associ-
alton unless the eastern roads would ac-
cept the % per cent. quoted rate.
Inquiry has been made as to the ar
rangements the Union Pacific has made
with eastern lines for the protection OF
that rate. The eastern lines claimed that
they had not been consulted in the estab-
lishment of the rate and would not accept
less than their locals from this city to the
seaboard, namely, Philadelphia GO cents,
New York 65 cents, Boston II cents. The
secretary of the joint committee has in
formed Midgley that no arrangement ex-
listed where any line east of Chicago would
accept less than local rates. Under those
circumstances there was no alternative
LETT for the Western Freight association
than the cancellation of the tariff.
Midgley says the Western Freight asso-
citation lines are disposed to do all they
can to aid their connections in meeting
the competition in this encounter on the
| ans-continental traffic, but their will
| lingness does not go to the extent o
shrinking their revenue and allowing tht
eastern roads their locals, especially wher

Money Stringency Relieved by
Currency Shipments.
MATTERS In BETTER SHAPE,
Beyond the Failure Of the Pacific
Bank, No More Is Expected.
President Mcdonald, of the Suspended
Bank, Gives What He Believes
Were the Reasons for Closing
the Doors-Financia1 Outlook.

NEW YORK, June2 3.-The banks re-
ported an easier feeling this morning in
the west and said the demands for ac-
commodation, rediscounts and currency
were much less. The attention of bank
ers today were mostly concentrated on
the situation on the Pacific coast. at the
sub-treasury it was said that $500, 600 cur
rency was exchanged today for transfer
to San Francisco. Besides the gold thus
transferred shipments of currency were
made direct today by express, which
made the aggregate amount of money
| forwarded today about 81, 900, 600 and
more may be sent tomorrow in the same
way.
| 1t is believed that the help sent San
Francisco from this city has relieved the
stringency there, so that beyond the fail
ure OF the Pacific bank no further trouble
is expected. DIR. r. II. Mcdonald, presi
dent of the Pacific bank. who is in this
city, was shocked when he heard today
that the bank had closed. He said:
"Though president of the bank, l have
not been active in the management foT
some time. I am sufficiently familiar
with the affairs of the institution
however, to feel confident that there is nc
chance that any depositors will lose any

HOME RUIZ Tor IRELAND.
New Financial Proposals in Con-
nection with the Measure.
TWO CLASSES OF REVENUE.
The First Is General and Will Consist
Of the Gross Taxes.
Ireland Shall Bear Her Own Civil Charges
"A Separate Exchequer and ConsoIi-
dated Fund Shall Be Established
Illustrative Treasury Statement.

LONDON, June 23.-New financial pro-
posals in connection with the proposed
establishment of the Irish parliament
were issued today. In the original
clauses, ten relating to separate con-
solidated fund taxes, those relating to
hereditary revenues and income tax;
twelve relating to the financial arrange
ments between the United Kingdom aud
Ireland, and thirteen relating to the
treasury account OF Ireland are omitted
from the new proposals.
The new scheme provides that the
revenue be divided into two classes
general and special. The general revenue
shall consist of the gross taxes, Ireland's
portion OF the hereditary crown revenues
and certain amount OF customs and ex-
else duties collected in England on ar
ticles consumed in Ireland. The residue
of the general class of revenue, after Ire
lands imperial contribution shall form
special revenue. ireland shall bear her
own civil charges. A separate exchequer
and consolidated fund shall be estab-
| lished.
Taxes imposed by the Irish parliament
shall form part of the special revenue to
be applied to the public service of Ire
land. Postage duties In Ireland, until
the imperial contribution shall have been
revised, shall be imposed by the imperial
parliament. If the postoffice revenue
shall be less than the expenditures the
deficiency must be paid to the imperial
eXchequer out Of the Irish exchequer.
The illustrative treasury statement, based
upon the receipts and expenditures for
1929, shows surplus of 2512, COO.
