The extent to which free passes have
been issued by railroads for the purpose
of influencing business Is illustrated in
the report of an interview held with an
official of the Western Association at
Chicago. At the beginning of the year
the roads in the association entered into
an agreement that none of them would
issue pass of any kind to influence bus
mess. Up to that time, it is said, no rail-
road was ever known to Befuse d pass to
a Standard Oh official. Now. however
such officials are put upon precisely the
same footing as the small shipper, and
must pay fare. The amount saved to
the roads so far this year is said to be not
less than 100000. If the agreement is
lived UP to throughout the year it is es-
timated the saving will amount to not
less than SlO,OO0.OO0. The other railroad
associations of Chicago will also proba-
bly, form anti-free pass compacts.

During the active hostilities between
Japan and China cable dispatch from
London made mention of a submarine
fight between Japanese and Chinese div
ers. Later reports of this remarkable
encounter show it to have been quite az
desperate as 1t was unusual japanese
divers were sent down to remove torpe-
does from a channel. Chinese divers took
to the water and attempted to prevent
the removal of the torpedoes. hand-to-
hand fight ensued, with short knives, at
the bottom of the channel. The submarine
Japanese fighters were as fortunate as
their compatriots on land, and won the
day and removed the torpedoes

THE FENCE NOW DOWN
One Can See the Whole of the New
Library Building
Improving the Grounds About the
Structure - Much Work to BE
Done on the Interior,

The high board fence which has sur
rounded the new Congressional Library
building is being torn away, and the pass
ing public now. gets a better view of the
stately proportions and classic beauty of
the structure. The fence was not removed
until the grand stairway and main en-
trance to the building was completed.
Heretofore it has been possible to get a
view only Of the upper stories from the
outside and it is probably just as well that
such was the case, for now the public, in
stead of getting piecemeal snapshots at
the grand structure will find it burst upon
their gaze complete and glorious whole.
Improving the Grounds.
That is, it is practically completed as to
outward appearance. OF course, there will
be work for years on the interior. The APP
pearance of the building will be greatly
enhanced in a few weeks. when the
grounds surrounding 1t are put in better
condition. Some grading will be necessary
In the course of the landscape gardening
to be done around the house, and stone
coping of the same description as the walls
fnclosing the Capitol grounds will be put
on the inner edge Of the pavement. As
long as the weather will permit work will
be pushed in finishing the grounds. Gran
olithic walks will be laid, driveways to he
porte cochere constructed, fountains put
in and the whole place beautified.
Work on the Interior.
There will he no cessation of work upon
the interior of the house this winter, but all
hands will be kept busy and laboring full
time. There are a multitude of things
which can be done, irrespective of climatic
conditions or the weather Painting, stucco
work, decorating of different kinds, finish
ing the marble work, putting in apparatus,
laying floors and paving courts. and
thousand-and-one other things.
The sandstone tagging upon the landings
of the outer grand stairway will be laid
this fall, and the main entrance will de-
mand further attention.
the tunnel connecting the Library build
ing with the Capitol has been completed,
and no traces Of its construction remain
upon the surface. This will be used for es-
tablishing rapid transit for books between
the two buildings and furnishing easy com.

Commissioners this morning for the purpose
of getting the latter to include in their
estimates 10 Congress an item of $4,000 for
the purchase of the building and ground
occupied by the dispensary on Delaware
avenue. The dispensary, they stated, was
doing excellent work, and the ground could
be purchased for very much less than it was
really worth under the contract the trustees
now had with the owner Of the property.
