samuel Thomas's Views.

Samuel Thomas, president of the Chicago,
Indianapolis e. Louisville, who spent soy
eral days in the West in company with
Vice President and General Manager Nc
Doel, has returned East, and on Thursday
said in an interview with a reporter Of the
New York Press: II never saw a time be-
fore when you could not meet a man either
on the train or in the shops or hotels from
Western towns who did not have something
unpleasant to say about the times. Now
it is the reverse. Everyone has something
good to say. They are all bulls on prices
of everything, especially the crops and the
future prosperity of this country. 1t is sur
prising 10 see how the silver and socialist
talk has disappeared. Increasing prosper
ity IS killing off these fancies faster than
anything else could. The. fact is people
in the West have had nothing else to talk
about for the last year or more than their
troubles. They had little work to do and
We're not making money. Now they have
something to do and they forget their
troubles and will not listen to political ag-
itators. / think we are in for a period of
prosperity for several years to come"

There is much feeling among the Western
roads against the lines running east from
Chicago because of the refusal of the latter
to stand any portion of the reduction nee
essary to enable the Western roads to meet
the low rates made by the 500 line, from
st. Paul and Minneapolis to the East. The
Western roads assert that the lines of the
Joint Traffic Association are guilty of dis
elimination against them, as they will not
stand any reduction to enable them to meet
the rates of the 500 line and at the same
time they nave shown themselves willing
to accept the tickets of the latter. Commits
sioner Blanchard. of the Joint Traffic Assoc
citation, has informed the Western roads
that he is working with the roads of his
organization in the effort to get them to
decline to honor the tickets issued by the
500 line, but has not as yet been successful
in doing so. There is some talk of an APP
peal to the Interstate-commerce Commits
sion to see If the lines of the Joint Traffic
Association can refuse from one set of roads
the same rates they accept from the 500.
There is also trouble over west-bound
Northern Pacific coast rates, particularly in
the second-clasS fares from Seattle. The
regular second-class fare from Seattle to
of the Western Passenger Association, has
found tickets on the market that cut this
rate by $4.50 and the brokers on the street
are said to be cutting these rates lower
still. In addition to selling tickets at fig
ures under the agreed rate it is claimed
that several of the roads are paying COM
mlSSlJ'lS anu f6SOTIllS TO OlIer irregular
methods in order to obtain business. Chair
man Caldwell has gone to st. Paul for the
purpose of finding out just what is the
trouble and to see if he cannot settle it.
ScaIpers i'm Trouble at Cleveland.
The railroad companies and the brokers
of Cleveland lave had another falling out.
The Baltimore & Ohio, the Nickel-plate
and the Lake Shore have agreed to cease
fostering the brokers, and hereafter they
must not look for favors from these roads.
The Lake Shore claims that it became a
party to the agreement simply to add
strength to the combination, and denies
having any dealings with the brokers. 1t
Is stated that the incentive for the antag-
onistic action towards the scalpers was a
moralizing passenger rates. Some of the
treatment of the brokers', and it is said
that the latter have received anything thew
wanted. The railroads allow reduced rates
is a matter of considerable Importance to
traders. The brokers are accused of COM
bining, together and securing parties, the
work being carried on very extensively.
Now 1t is claimed that the railroads have
stopped this so-called abuse and have gone
farther in their efforts to deprive brokers
of their means of sustenance. They nave
also stopped selling transportation to brok-
erS or others when 1t is known that the
tickets are to be scalped.

MRS. srANroRp,s INSURANCE..

Largest Policy Ever Written by
Life Insurance Agency.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 10.-The
ten since life insurance was invented
was signed, sealed and turned over
yesterday to Mrs. Jane l.. Stanford.
The policy, which calls for the pay
ment to the Leland Stanford Junior
University of 81 000, 900 in the event of
Mrs. Stanford's death within ten years,
or 81 900 900 should she die after she
has made her tenth annual payment.
is issued by the Mutual Life Insurance
Company of New York, and is the re-
suit of long negotiations between the
company and the insured. No com
pany has ever been known before TO
assume such a risk on a single life, and
the big deal was the subject of not
small amount of gossip in insurance
circles yesterday when the facts be-
came known.
Mrs. Stanford's object in taking out
the policy is understood to be the fur
therance of the interests of the univer-
sity, to which the policy is made pay
able. From what can be learned Of the
transaction, however, her estate or the
university will only profit by the big
deal in the event of her death within
FIVE years. After Mrs. Stanford has
paid her sixth premium the insurance
company will stand in bond, principal
and interest. almost the full amount
of the insurance, and after that until
the tenth payment shall have been
made the holder will be at the dis
advantage of paying hundreds of thou
sands Of dollars without securing any
benefit in the way Of increased insur-
ance.
Mrs. Stanford is now 60 years of age,
and the mortality tables show that she
should not die within five years. But
Should she die within five years the
company will be loser to a consider
able amount If her life should be pro-
longed six, seven or eight years, the
company will profit by the transaction.

Violated Immigration Laws.

Chinaman, by the name of Sal Nui,
was arrested last Saturday for viola
ton of the immigration laws. 1t ap-
pears that about year ago Sol Nui,
who is rice planter at Kalihi, applied
to the Board of immigration for per-
mits to obtain two laborers under For
eign Office conditional permits. He OBJ
tanned permission, and the two men
came and commenced to work for him.
One condition of the above permit is
that the laborerS must deposit 81 so
apiece each month with the Board of
immigration, which is for the purpose
Of sending them back to China at the
expiration of their contracts. Sal Nui
kept up the payments regular for about
six months-and then stopped. He made
repeated promises to pay for the men,
but failed, and as a consequence was
arrested. The case was nolle pross'd
in the Police Court yesterday for the
reason that Sol Nui paid up the deposit
owing, and the men have been taken
away from him and transferred to a
more responsible party to serve out
the balance Of their contract.

would be no trouble to keep B up to

grown careless of late, and there seems
to be no Encouragement for him TO

ganization. If another candidate is
nominated Captain White hoped his
name would be withdrawn, and the
vote of the company cast for the new
man. Speeches by various members
present were full of good words for
Captain White and it seemed to be
the opinion of every one present that
he was the only one in the company
who could hold them together. His
name was put in nomination and re-
suited in his being unanimously elect
ed. A committee of three was appoint

notify him of his election. A canvass
will be made of the members TO see
what support may be depended upon.

The Chronicle of April 10th says
l'that the immigration law has been

incurred by some one, and the Inspec-
tor of immigration, Walter P. Stradley,
is trying to find out who is RESPONSE

fault of DR.. William Mudd Jordan of
the United States Marine Hospital
service, and DR.. Jordan says it makes
no difference to him
1t all arose over the landing of AZ
alien immigrants from the Monowai
Thursday evening before they had
was notified that the Monowai was ap-
preaching the harbor at the same time
that the other officials, whose duties
required them to meet her, received
the information That was about 3
o'clock in the afternoon. They were all
promptly on hand except DR.. Jordan.
Inspector of immigration Stradley
went out to meet the Monowai with
the national quarantine officer, DIR.
Rosenau, and had made his inspection
by the time the vessel was docked. DIR.
Rosenau had made his inspection and
left. The customs officers were there
at the dock, and soon had the inspec-
ton of baggage completed. There was
nothing to prevent these immigrants
men, women and children-mostly
from Australia and New Zealand, from
landing except the absence of DIR. Jor
dan. He had gone over to Angel ISL
and on the General Mcdowell after he
was notified Of the arrival of the Mon
oval and he did not get back until 6
o'clock.
Meanwhile the immigrants were inn
patient to get off. The steamship Off
cials were impatient to have them. So
were the customs inspectors. Inspector
of immigration Stradley told Captain
Carey they could land as soon as DR..
Jordan had made his examination, and
still DR.. Jordan did not come.
The Monowai was docked at a little
after o'clock. Six o'clock came and
Captain Carey wanted to let them land,
but did not like to take the RESPONSE
bility Captain Howard who has
charge of the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany's dock, said he would take the re-
sponsibility, and, with Captain Carey's
permission, directed the immigrants
to land. They had all reached the
wharf and were nicely away when DR..
Jordan returned from his visit to An
gel Island. He found no immigrants to
examine, and he also went away.
Inspector Stradley says that he ord
cred the immigrants to be landed as
soon as they had been examined by DR..
Jordan, and DR.. Jordan says that the
immigrants had been landed when he
