A Matter Of Business

1t is charged by Senator Lodge that
the colored delegates from the south
have been badly treated by the McKin-
ley managers. That depends somewhat
upon the point of view. In his commer-
cial transactions Mr.. Hanna enjoys the
reputation of being a man Of his word
and the colored brethren ought to know
that friendship has little to do with
matters OF business. Kansas City Star

j. A. Fillmore, manager of the Pacific
division of the Southern Pacific Company,
is seriously i'll at his home in this city.
For week he has been confined to his
house and yesterday did not leave his bed.
The trouble is an attack of pneumonia fol-
lowing very heavy cold which settled on
Mr.. Fillmore's chest week ago.
Since some time the week before last the
railroad managers desk has been closed
and his work has devolved upon the as
sistant manager. AT first it was thought
Mr.. F1llmore's indisposition was OF mild
nature. simply a common cold, though a
really severe one As the days passed ii
developed into an acute form until at last
pneumonia began to show itself.
Wednesday last Mrs. Fillmore, who was
IN the East, started for home and is now
coming westward as fast as possible to be
with her husband, whose condition was
said to be critical yesterday.
AT the railroad offices the fact OF Mr..
Flllmores sickness was kept secret, al
though on the street several railway men
knew OF 1T. The news was a great surprise
TO them. One agent stated that while Mr..
flllmore's condition was said to be not OF
a nature that would cause any un easi-
ness among his friends, it really was seri-
ous de said that pneumonia had come
upon very bad cold and Frustrated MIR.

Will Examine Our Elevated Systems
and Railway Supplies-Got

The great city of Toxic is soon to be
gridironed with elevated railroads.
R. Nomnara, a special commissioner of
the Japanese Government to investigate
different elevated systems in America and
companied by three other prominent
Japanese gentlemen, who are investi-
eating different railroad problems.
HI. Iwasaki is one of them. He is super
intendent of locom otives of two private
railroad lines, and is here on business In
connection with railway locomotives s..
Yamaguchi is also commissioned by the
Government on railway matters, and K.
Takibe is here to study locomotive engi-
neering.
They landed at Tacoma. They will be
in different parts of this country from two
to three months before sailing for Europe.
All this and more was set forth yester-
day to CALL representative who met the
gentlemen at the Occidental, by Mr.. Yam
aguchi, their spokesman.
Yes, we have got to have elevated
roads in the big cities of Japan" he said /;
there are too many people for US to get
along without them. Japan is moving to
the front. We intend to have better ele-

''Tokio, which will be the initial city
for the elevated system, is great place
and may be III time the biggest city in the
world. 1t is 400 years old and has 1000,
900 people. 1t is growing right along, and
so situated that its growth must con-
tinue.
"We want to visit Chicago, New York
and other cities where the elevated sys-
tenn is used, and see and understand for
ourselves the workings of these roads,
We have had the plans of them and all
the details by competent engineers m ade
out and forwarded to the department in
Japan for good while. But the object of
the commission is to learn other details.
We want to study the practical workings
of the roads.
"Tokio at present has only horse rail-
ways for the accommodation OF the people.
There is an electric system in but one
town-kioto. We intend in the future to
use electricity and steam.

kio great central station.
Before this year Japan never bought a
ton OF railroad iron in the United States.
This year already we have bought and
contracted to buy 10000 tons Of steel rails
We have also bought large number of
American locom olives.
During the pastyear our railroad build
ing has progressed with great rapidity.
We have about 5000 miles of oa in oper-
alton now, and in ten years We will have
