To Prevent Freight From Going
Far Astray
The Santa Fe Has Adopted a
New Plan.
GREAT MONEY SAVER.
Directors of Santa Fe Report on
Bakersfield Road.
Give the Stockholders a Reason
For Its Purchase.

Kansas City, Nov. "a scheme to
prevent less than carload freight from
going to a wrong destination has been
recently put in force on the Santa Fe.
Formerly, when a shipment went astray,
the agent at whose station the frelghC
was left made an lover" report to the
auditor and the freight awaited orders
from headquarters. This occaSioned
considerable annoyance to the shipper
from loss of time in delivering the
freight to the wrong place and required
the railroad to keep a clerk to look
after this particular kind of trouble.
The present plan is as follows: Each
car to be loaded in the warehouse has
a tin box nailed on the side with num-
Der on it. This number is called the
layout number. In car No. all freight
for points between Kansas City ana
Lawrence is loaded, and in car No. z
all freight for points from Lawrence TO
Topeka, etc. Each checking clerk has
q bunch Of tickets with his number at
the top, the truckman'S number IS
placed next and the layout number. at
the bottom. After the truckman has
loaded his truck, he is given a ticket
with his number on it and also the
number of the layout. He finds the
proper car by the number of the layout
on the tin box and, after loading the
freight in the car, he places the ticket
in the tin box. At the close Of loading
the cars, the tickets are collected from
the cars and given to the proper check
ing clerk. The checking clerk sees that
all the layout numbers in each box cor
respond But, If he finds NO L lay
out ticket in a No. 2 box, he knows
something is loaded wrong, and, re-
ferring to the ticket, he calls the truck
man whose number is on it to correct
the error. This locates any error in
loading and, as the billing clerk also
inspects the tickets before making out
bills of lading, there is double check
on the loading.
The Iowa Central railway has had the
scheme in operation for some time and
finds it a great time and money saver.
The Santa Fe is the only other road
using the system.

Russell Harding, well known by all

Under a contract recently entered in
to between the Missouri Pacific and the
Union Pacific railroad companies, the
former is to furnish the latter $50 car
loads of coal a week, and the coal is
brought up through Fort Scott over the
Fort Scott and Southern. The Union
Pacific sends it's own cars down to be
loaded.
Six Missouri Pacific railroad men
who have lately been transferred to
Atchison, complain that they are being
i'll treated by house owners in Atchison.
They say that houses that have been
renting for years for $12, have been ad-
vanced to $1S. They are indignant at
these attempts to hold them up.

that partnership and I will break it up
again when 1 have the chance, let Mr..
Croker cry ever 50 loudly. 1t is small
wonder that I should be denounced by
those who exact tribute from puryeyors
of vice, who rob the honest poor and who
care as little for civic pride as they do for
decency and morality. Every purVeyor
of vice who plies his vile trade unmOleSt-
ed in consideration of the blackmail which
gives the true reason for the existence
of the wide-open policy-every such man
cheers Mr. Croker when he attacks US,
because We made the police force honest.
1t is fit that Mr.. Croker, now seeking to
corrupt and degrade the bench, should rail
at the men who drove out corruption from
the police department. He now runs the
city through one of his delegates; and,
swollen with the, power which this gives
him, virulent in his brutality, he tries to
strike down an honest judge because that
judge is not his bringing sycophant If,
through another delegate, he gets control
of the state, the honest men of the state
may expect evil times indeed"
In conclusion Colonel Roosevelt said:
Mr.. Croker is striving to render the
judges his equally servile tools. He has
the mayor: he wishes the governor. If
the police force and the judiciary. the ex-
ecutive at Albany and the executive in
New York all become, his supple-kneed
we will have no single way of making eff
fective protest against any extreme Of
corruption or aWleSSneSS.

Republican Anxiety
Lest a Democratic Congress Be
Elected Next Week.
CHEERS FOR CROKER.
Great Democratic Rally at Car
negie Hall
Roosevelt Begins Speechmaking
Before Breakfast.

New York, Nov. 3.-Every seat In
Carnegie hall was filed last night soon
after the doors were opened and a great
crowd filed the vast hall before the
mass meeting of the Business Mems
Democratic association was called to
order by. Theodore W. Meyers, former
comptroller of the city of New York
Ex-senator David B. Hill was the
speaker of the night and throughout his
speech was greeted with applause The
gathering was a very enthusiastic one
and the entrance of Richard Croker
while Mr.. Hill was speaking was the
occasion of one of the heartiest demon
Strat1onS OF the evening. Inc platform
was crowded with prominent business
men and there was a gOodly sprinkling
of ladies in the boxes.
The reading of a letter to the Bush
ness Mems association from former
President Grover Cleveland, congratu-
lating it for striving to prevent mall
administration and extravaganza Of the
Republican party was followed by a
deafening applause.
Mr.. Hill was introduced by the chair
man and at first spoke with some eff
fort. AS he went along, however, his
voice became distinct and ringing and
could be heard in every part of the
hall.
In the course OF his remarks Mr.. Hill
said:
This terrible anxiety, largely af-
fected, of our Republican friends for
rear that the war may be renewed in
case of Democratic victory is really
pitifuI
1T is also difficult to appreciate the
apprehension of our opponents that the
Democrats may embarraSS the presf-
dent in perfecting his plans for securing
permanent peace.
Senator Lodge, of Massac husetts in
a speech in this city last week, in one of
his flights of fancy, said in substance
that If his audience was not in favor of
placing the people of the Philippine is
lands back under the rule of Spanish
tyranny they should vote for the Re

suggest to the distinguished senator
that neither he nor anybody else knows
what the policy of the present admin
9stratiOn may be as to the Philippine
islands That policy has never been
declared; on the contrary it has been
carefully concealed. The only express
sion heard from any member of the adj
minlstratiOn was from the late secreta-
~ OF state, Mr.. Day, now one of our
peace commissioners at Paris who some
did not favor the retention of these is
lands Perhaps he spoke the presi-
dent s own views. who knows. The
truth seems to be that the Democratic
nostllty which is apprehended springs
from Republican fear that some IN
duly liberal or generous terms OF
peace involving a base surrender of
some OF the conquered territory, may
be approved by the administration to
which Democratic opposition would
naturally be expected. The suspicious
delay in the peace negotiations which
will undoubtedly not be permitted to be
concluded until after election, confirms
this view of the situation.
