Rcnsons why II should Not Pass the
II Next Congress.
scalpers Of the West already have begun
their efforts to prevent the passage Of the
Sherman and Cullom bills by congress.
These measures are identical and prohibit
the dealing In railroad tickets except by
authorized agents, The petition blanks. a
few of which are already here, contain the
following arguments:
l. The bill would tend to disturb a nat'ir-
al and legitimate right TO dispose OF ones
own properly In the open market
q 1t would enable the strong railroad
systems to shut out the weak lines on
through business and thus disturb competl-
ton.
3. II would send a citizen to prison and
brand him with infamy for disposing OF
his own properly while imposing no penalty
upon tho railroad company for failure to
redeem tickets as provided.
l. Tho business OF ticket brokerage is d.
rectly In the interests OF the travelling
public.
g. The passenger traffic rs controlled al
most entirely by trusts, leaving the people
at their mercy. except for the relief at
forded by ticket brokerage.

May BE settled by Diplomacy

The ccl respondencs referring 10 the
Lueders case between the American Lin
lister, " T. Powell al Port au Prince, and
the Haitian secretary OF state, Mr. Menos,
has been received at the State Dep lrt-
ment II shows the desire of the American
minister to have Lueders released and The
friendly tone OF the Haitian authorities
toward his representation. The a3els
throw no new light on the case the .listo-y
OF which is familiar.
It is believed now that no harsh
measures viii he resorted To Immediately
by Germany TO enforce her claim, and
Haiti, according to Minister Leger, viii
not resist payment if Germany can prove
her case. She will, however, maintain
her dignity at all hazards.
The Marblehead will proceed 20 Port
au Prince from Annapolis in u few Gays
where it is understood she goes 10 look
after American interests. II is not i'm
probable that the Wilmington, which il
soon TO san for the South, will also go to
Haiti, If her services are needed. The
Annapolis and tile Newport will also be
in that neighborhood in a few weeks.
The express purpose of the trip of the
Marblehead Is not stated TO be in relation
to the PENDING controversy, nut in view Of
the recent inSiStent tone oil Germany there
is little doubt that she will go with special
instI uCi ions from this Government.

Nearly million cross ties have been
bought in the last year and placed in
the track ready for the new rail. Bal
last trains have been kept busy up and
down the line and the work has pro-
gressed with such rapidity that when
the new rail is down the tracks will be
practically bran new from Wheeling to
Baltimore. There are lots of good rail
in the old tracks, not heavy enough for
the new motive power, which will be
taken up and laid on divisions where
traffic is not as great as it is on the
main line. About ten thousand tons Of
new steel will be laid on the lines west
OF the Ohio river this fall if the wealth
er permits.
