CHICAGO, July 27.-Passenger rep
resentatives Of the Chicago-St. Paul

their efforts to put.an end to the de-

The Rock Island insists that it will
make an open reduction in fares unless
all lines keep authorized rates up to
the required basis.
Some of the passenger men are SAN

that it seems inevitable.

POOLING OF FREIGHT CARS.
Some of the Advantages Claimed for
Such Action.

Such Action.
CINCINNATI, O.. July 27.-The plan for the
pooling Of freight cars, which is a pet
scheme of j. R. Cavanagh, superintendent Of
car service of the Big Four road, was ap-
proved at the recent annual meeting of the
General Association of Railroad Officers held
at Indianapolis. The committee having the
question under consideration reported Mr..
Cavanagh's plan both feasible and practical.
1t was suggested it would be advisable 70
start with limited pool as an experiment
by division Of the country into territorial
sections, and that gradually the territories
could be consolidated and eventually there
would be one pool of all the freight cars in
the United States. The advantage of the
pooling of freight cars, it is claimed, would
be:
No more building for at least six years,
except to maintain the present number of
standard cars.
Economy in maintenance.
More rapid standardizing Of sizes, parts,
etc.
Saving in the expense of keeping on hand
large stocks or varieties of parts of cars or
material for repairs.

The U. s. will use ballons in actual
military service for the first time, in
Cuba, although their usefulness has
been fully demonstrated some time
ago, by experiments in this country
and by actual service in Europe.
Each of the two u. S. armies which
will be used for the invasion of Cuba
will have complete balloon outfits and
corps of experts to work them.
These balloons will be sent up high
enough to make thorough observa-
tions in a radius of twenty-five or
thirty miles and each of them will
carry a signal officer to report to
the commanding officer. They will,
of course, be controlled from the
ground by means of ropes.
