Fe out Of their sacred society at OnC0,
before the rude Investigators Of that
roads books make any more distressing
discoveries.
It is hard for the public to believe
that the great men at the head Of q rail-
way system should have really broken
laws with far longer generalization than
any riotsr in the recent labor troubles.
For it is an axiom Of high repute that
railroad presidents cannot sin. Conse-
quently the report that the reorgsniza-
tion committee intends to ask Mr., Rein
hart what has become Of 2 million
dollars, part Of these illegal rebates, Is
enough to give any properly constituted
Admirer Of our railroad Rristocracy .
chill.
Let US see what the charges against
the Santa Fe's officials exactly amount
to. In the first place, the railroad is in
the hands Of a receiver, having become
bankrupt in the recent financial crisis.
The receiver, under that delightful sys-
tenn which is 80 prevalent nowadays, is
the president Of the railroad under
whose management it had been brought
to bankruptcy. But the stock and bond
holders did not for some unaccountable
reason rest Contented with this eXquis-
itOly simple msneuver. They formed q
reorganization committee, and set an sx-
pert at work upon the books. The frat
thing Of great interest that he found
was that million dollars had been paid
out as rebates by the Santa Fe to ship
peEg, in plain violation Of the interstate
commerce law. It was also breach Of
faith with the other railroads which had
pooling relations with the Santa Fe.
The stockholders had heard Rs much
about these rebates as the general pub
AACp uBWDlyD nObnAnRs
President Rsinhsrt acknowledged that
such rebates had been made, but said
they had been entered in the books. That
they had not appeared in the financial
statements Of the company was due to
the Santa Fs's system OF bookkeeping.
When Mr.. ReinhRrs was made president
there was q great tO-do about what he
would do TO improve the bookkeeping Of
the road. It is already clear that Mr..
ReinhRrt knows how to keep books.
Then the expert went at it again and
found million dollars had been given
away contrary to law to the roads GUS
toners, but of 2 million dollars alleged
to have been paid out as rebates they
could find no trace. So that the still
more interesting question now stsres Mr..
Reinhnrt and the Santa Fe stockholders
in the face. Where are those 2 million
dollars? Are they concealed under that
marvellous system of bookkeepingS Or
has there been added to the breacn Of
the interstate commerce law-for infrRc.

unique clocks that perhaps has ever

trio clock" and at glance resem-

clock, bat upon closer inspection it
is found that il only has 3 wheels,
me Tor the second. one for the min
Gte and one for the hour hands
These wheels, with magnet. small
battery aud pendulum, constitute
the entire machinery of the time
piece. The wheels and magnet can
be seen through the open space in
the dial. the pendulum and battery
are hidden from view by little door
in the bottom The clock can be
regulated just the same as any other
time piece. but does not require any
winding. 1t is placed against the
wall, and without being touched will
run for over a year and keep accur
ate time. The battery should be re
| newed once year, and it is claimed
that even this is not necessary, as il
will supply the electric current fo'
at least eighteen months. There are
only four or five clocks like it in tn,
