CHURCH EXTENSION SOCIETY.
Rev. A. j. Kynett, of Philadelphia, En-
plains the Work.


Last night the anniversary of the Church
Extension Society was celebrated. Rev. j..
T. O'Neal presided, and the congregation
was addressed by Rev. A. j. Kynett, Of
Philadelphia, chief secretary of the board
of church extension. His discourse was in
explanation of the work of the Church Elk
tension Society. He complained that the
laity did not know what the society was,
because it was not explained to them by
the clergy. He thought if the people knew
more about the movement there would be
more contributions for its support.
one branch of the work of the society is
similar to home missionary work. The soci-
ETY. distributes funds intrusted to its care
for building churches in the frontier coun-
try, where there is need of churches and a
good field for the work of a minister. Some
times these churches are Duilt as memo
rails to some person who makes the gift
of money to erect the buildings and some
times to the memory of some departed loved
one. Mr.. Kynett thought that a living
church in a living city was more appro-
pirate and sensible memorial than a dead
shaft of marble in the city of the dead.
Another branch of the work of the Church
Extension Society is carried on through the
present amounts to $IO2O,0O0 1t is made
up of money, partly contributed outright,
partly contributed with the condition that
the donor is to have a life annuity from ii
and partly loaned at interest TO the fund.
With this money weak churches are assist
ed, always as a business proposition, how
ever, which means that the money borrowed
by church must be paid with interest.
Mir. Kynett said that although the society
seemed rich, most of its money was in the
loan fund, which fund was sacredy kept for
the purposes intended. The more important
work was the establishment Of new
churches, and the funds for this depart
ment of the work were always low, for
they were expended as they came in, and
did not come back with interest. He in
vited any person who felt like endowing or
building a frontier church, or one in the
poorer localities in city or village, to give
their check TO their pastor, and it would be
forwarded to the society and used as re-

Pleased with Their Trip.

Oscar Murray, receiver, and other Of
ficials of the Baltimore & Ohio. who spent
ten days on an inspection trip over the
Western lines has returned to Baltimore
and to a reporter of Baltimore paper said
he was very much pleased with the condi-
ton of their lines and the amount of bust
ness they were doing. When asked con-
corning the condition of business in the
West. Mr.. Murray said it was much better
than it had been and that there was every
indication of a still further increase. A
great deal of grain was moving and there
appeared to be a general Improvement in
all lines OF business as shown by the char
acter of the freight that is being handled
both east and west. With reference to b.
& o. Southwestern changes, Mr.. Murray
said that those that had been made have
been contemplated for some little time, and
with regard to his being made president of
the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern he said
that Mr.. Bacon was still president of that
corporation, and would remain so as long
as he desired. No overtures had been made
to him to accept the position All of the
officials commented upon the fact that for
the first time in many years b. & o. freight
trains were recognized by reason of having
b. & o. cars in them. The new equipment
was found scattered the entire length of the
line, and it formed major part of each
train. The demand for cars is very large,
and on many days the b. Il o. fell short
from 1,200 to 1900 cars to supply the de-
mand.

Affairs of the Pennsylvania Lines.

According to high official authority the
Pennsylvania lines, both east and west of
Pittsburg, are doing better than at the cor
responding period last year. and If present
conditions continue extensive improvements
will be undertaken in the early spring on
the Western lines. On the Fort Wayne di-
vision, where the company has from year
to year extended the double track. it is said
about twenty-five miles more will be added
as well as making a number of new and
long sidings. This company has for some
time past been introducing these long sid
ings, and in many places the road is the
same a double track. Since the PennsyI-
vania Company was allowed a differential
on all passenger business to Chicago by the
Panhandle route there has been a big in
crease in travel by this road. This road
has been popular route for many years,
and some of the best trains that the Penn
syvania runs to Chicago go by it, That
the Panhandle will be double tracked be-
tween Pittsburg and Columbus within
twelve months is a foregone conclusion
and it is the opinion of one of the Penn
sylvania officials that inside of three years
the Panhandle will be double tracked from
Pittsburg to Indianapolis and Chicago.

NO NEED TO CUT RATES
YET 1T Is CLAIMED THAT SOME
FREIGHT LINES ARE so DOING.
The Panhandle Profits Through Its
measurement Railway News.

81 can see no reason" said General
Agent Baker, of the White fast freight
line, for cutting rates at present on
through or local business, as in neither line
are there cars enough to handle the freights
offered. / know it is true, however that
some of the lines are shading rates-lines
that are unable to fill orders for cars to
haul grain and grain products, the only
lines in which rates are well maintained.
There is not day but some shipper comes
to me or writes me that this or that line is
offering such a rate, but the shipper pre-
ferred to ship by the White line if a sim
liar rate would be given. l invariably an
swer: We have not cars enough to carry
the business offered at full tariff, and
can see no reason for cutting a rate just
now there is quite fight for the wool traf-
fic, and while the wool rate from st. Louis
TO Philadelphia is Go cents pc 40 pounds,
one Of the lines is carrying 1t - cents,
and good paying business is moving
over that very line, so short il !. 81 cars"
Another line agent was ASK d about the
matter He said he was satishat that some
of the lines were shading rates, and he
would not deny that their lines were do
ing so to meet the rate made by compet-
itors. He said the billing might not show
cut rate, but every month he knew GER
tain shippers were getting rebate checks,
and his employers were asking him how it
was that such and such fast freight lines
were getting business which had but re-
Gently been going over the lines he repre-
sented. The most singular feature about
the whole business is that, If reports are
true, the strong lines are the aggressors
and the so-called weaker lines are carrying
their business at tariff and loading all the
cars they can furnish, which, said the
freight official demonstrates that some of
the lines are favoring shippers now with
the expectation of holding their business
should freight traffic become lighter than
at present. Said the last speaker: THE
ways of some of these freight solicitors are
a mystery to me. and it sometimes seems
be kept away from the head officials of the
railways, which certainly are anxious to
make good earning exhibits

THAT EXTRA SESSION.
New Jersey Legislature Liable to
SIT for Some Time.


Trenton, N. j., May 12.-The law de-
paitment admits this morning that under
Gov. Griggs' proclamatioathere no power

gavel falls on May 25. While the intention
OF the governor was to call the legislature
in extraordinary session to change tile
word provided" to -'probibited'' In the
proposed aifti-gambling Institutional
amendment, which must be sHbmitted to
the people in September next, the governor
has reeonyened the legislature without
specifically setting forth what duty Is ex-
pected of the la wInakers. That the legis-
lators will transact business other than
that Tor which tile governor called them
together is already settled
The adoption or the anti gambling Con-
stitutional amendment means that about
So 900 invested in race tracks IN New
Jersey Is practically wiped out
Gen. Grey said the amendment was
valueless as 1t stood, and rather IegaIze ed
gambling OF all kinds, than prohibited It
An investigation was set ON foot by Gov
Gnggs, and 1t WAS asoertained that all
OF the trouble was caused by a type
writer named Miss Mabel
Miss Mabel, Gov. Griggs found In his in
vestigation, was asked to copy the bill
by Lawyer Bergen, OF Elizabeth, who had
drafted IL upon the request of Senator
Voorhees,. The bill as incorrectly copied,
went through the engrossing departme Of
both houses and was not discovered until
1t reached the governorss IS hands.
When the legislature meets Senator
Voorhees, viii move the bin TO the calen-
dar, 1t viii then be placed back on second
reading, corrected, passed under suspension
of the rules, sent to the house, and there il
can be passed In six minutes and returned

Assemblynlan Porter, of Newark, is de
terinued 10 have the house act upon bis
vetoed police pension bill If the other shall

This viii open the gates and no man eau
tell where il viii end.
No matter how the State constitution
may have been twisted in the past to
enable 10 chief executive OF New Jersey
20 hold the bills dumped in upon him
after the adjournment, the governor must
send in his yetoes for the fifty or more
measures which he now has in his political
graveyard, and among the bills vetoed will
be found some pet measure of nearly every
member and senator, and the politicians
dare not even hope that these men will
let slip the opportunity to pass their

The Matter with Hanna.

The junior Senator from Ohio smells

is unable to nip 1t In the bud, as his
British parliamentary prototype swore,
by heavens, that he would do. The net
result appears to be sulky If not bilious
