A Curious Railroad Contract.

From the New Haven Journal and Courier.
The Great Western railroad of England
has just had to pay $4,000 to free itself
from the obligation to stop every train at
Swindon station for ten minutes. In 1S41.
before the road had reached Bristol it
made an agreement for ninety-nine years
with a firm of builders to hold every train
carrying passengers, mot being sent ex-
press or for special purposes. for a rea-
sonable period of about ten minutes" at
Swindon, in consideration of the erection
of suitable refreshment rooms, for which
a rent of penny year was to be paid.
The railroad soon found out the incon-
venience of The arrangement and tried to
break it. This courts in 1915 and in 1872 held
that express did not mean in the con-
tract what is now meant by an express
train; but the price asked for the annul-
ment of the concession was always more
than the company was willing to pay. AZ
ter fight of over fifty years it has been
driven by the competition of other roads to
buy out its opponents, and the ten-minute
stop of fast expresses at Swindon is now
a thing of the past

Radical Change to De Made From the
"MemOrandum System.'
New York Letter to s.: Louis Republic.
A radical reform is about to he made
in the diamond and iewelry trade which
will mark a new era in the dealings be-
tween wholesaler and retailer. This il
nothing more than the adjustment Of tho
memorandum system" which for fifty
years has governed the sale of diamonds
and iewelry to small houses and casual
purchasers. The memorandum system"
is so called for the reason that heretofore
any retailer has been enabled to obtain
supplies of diamonds for the inspection Of
customers without paying for and by
merely promising to return them at the
end of three days If not sold within that
time. The big wholesale houses have lost
thousands through the operations of bogus
statesmen. The New FORK jewelers. ASso-
citation, the New York jewelers. Board OF
Trade and the Chicago Jewellers Associa-
ton have each agreed to appoint a COM
mittee to formulate scheme by which the
present deficient memorandum plan will
be superseded By strong uniform rule
which will relegate swindlers to other
fields of industry.
These three Organizations include nearly
all the wholesale and jcbhing diamond and
jewelry dealers In the United States. There
are few in other cities. but all manufac-
turers of jewelry and nearly all importers
of and dealers in diamonds and precious
stones have offices in either or both New
York and Chicago. Consequently this uni
criminal courts throughout the country
will he considerably reduced hereafter and
the swindling fraternity will be forced to
the cold realms of pauperism.

CERTIFIED CHECKS GOOD.

Mr.. Thomas Rules ON Protest Made
by IA Bidder.
The attorney for the District has decided
that a certified check presen ted with a bid
Is equivalent to a receipt Of the collector Of
taxes, that the money has been deposited
with him.
This opinion was called forth by the pro-
test Of Contractor Dunn. who insisted thai
the lowest bid made by Mr.. Winfree, for
constructing certain school houses, was in
formal in that the specifications and in
structions to bidders were not lived up to-.
there being no receipt Of the collector Of
taxes accompanying the lowest bid. Mr..
Winfree inclosed with his bids certified
checks for the amounts Of the guarantee
or indemnity fund, instead Of the receipts
Of the collector Of taxes for the money. In
his opinion Mr.. Thomas says:
lin this case Mr.. Dunn. it seems to me.
has no right to complain. His objection Is
purely technical. 1t goes to form and not
to substance He deposited money with his
bids, while Mr.. Winfree deposited certified
checks, which were, we have seen, equiv
alent to money, and which for all purposes,
except tender, are money. The case is
not as though Mr.. Winfree mad deposited
his bids without the indemnity in money or
certified checks for the amounts. He de-
posted certified checks. and thus parted
with his money as effectually IS did Mr..
Dunn. If Mr.. Winfree had failed to ac-
company his bid with the indemnity de-
posits, either in money or in certified
checks, then Mr.. Dunn would have just
ground on which to object to the accept
ance of the bids. Acceptance of Mr.. Win
frees bids under those conditions would be
unfair to other bidders who deposited their
money.
whilst good administration requires that
bidders for public works should be held
strictly to all the substantial conditions
int 10 he in q n
Mr. Winfree's bids in this case is too slight
to Justify their rejection"

A Train Runs Nfnety-FOur Miles in
Ninety-EiRht Minutes.
Special to the New York World
PHILADELPHIA, September 1S.-The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company made an
attempt to run a full vestibulc train of cars
from Jersey City to Philadelphia this after
neon in ninety minutes. The distance Is
nirety-four miles, and the object was to
test the engine and fuel, and not to break
the record Although the attempt failed,
the run was made in the remarkably fast
time of ninety-eight minutes
The train left Jersey City promptly at
lis o'clock, and was in charge Of Assist
ant Road Foreman George Heddon, who
was at the engine throttle. A number of
officials of the railroad company made the
journey. Newark, the first stop, a distance
of seven miles, was reached in ten minutes.
Thirty seconds later the train left Market
street station. After reaching Elizabeth
the speed was increased, and mile after
mile was reeled off in fast time.
The train reached Broad street station at
2:53 O'Clock or ninety-eisht minutes after
leaving Jersey City. The average run was
sixty-five miles an hour. the quickest
stretch being between Princeton and
Trenton, where the run averaged seventy
miles an hour. The quickest mile of the
run was covered in fifty seconds.
The entire weight of the train was ESQ, 161
pounds. 1t was drawn by engine No 1851,
which is one of The thirteen recently ac-
tirely satisfactory to the officials, and will
probably result in the shortening of the
time of the regular trains between New
York and Philadelphia.

LIBERTY BELLS TRIP.
Mules Won't he Allowed to Haul the
Patriotic Relic.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
When the liberty bell Is taken from In
dependence Hall on October to the train
which is to convey 1t to Atlanta it will
probably be escorted by q procession of
civic and military organizations. This is
according to the idea of the subcommittee
on correspondence and arrangements of
the Joint committee of councils on the At
lanta exposition, which met yesterday and
resolved to recommend to the general COM
mittee that the bell shall DE escorted by
such civic and military societies as shall
volunteer for that purpose. Chairman
Miles said it would not be the proper thing
to load the bell on the wagon like piece
Of merchandise and haul 1t to the railroad
station without ceremony, and the rest of
the committee agreed with him.
Mr. Hults stated that the bell would be
loaded here and unloaded in Atlanta by
riggers in the employ of one of the big
safe companies. He had been informed
that the arrangements for the transporta-
ton of the bell, after it's arrival at Atlanta
contemplated having the patriotic relic
hauled by a team of mules. He told the
representative Of the company that rather
than have the bell hauled by mules the
committee itself would pull the wagon.
would that make the matter any bet
ter?" dryly asked Chairman Miles.
Mr.. Hults said that question need not be
cor sidered, as the mule idea had been
abandoned.

game was one of the best played here this

game and but two misplays being INDUCED

Mercer twirled for the Washington men,
and his work was first-class, despite the
fact that Keefe gave him shade the worst
of it in calling strikes. De Montreville, the
new shortstop on the local team, played
with dash that was extremely refreshing,
and his work yesterday indicated that he Is

His batting was not productive of hits, al
though he hit the ball hard every time
Joyce put another homer to his credit, the
ball going on the fly into the far end of the
bleachers. In the second inning the visitors
home team scored one earned run on Cart

Washington people scored three times on

home run in the seventh was the last time
they scored.
The visitors scored one each in the fourth
