Expert And Able to Speak InteIIi-
gently

Expert Stephen Little, who has JUS,
returned from an extended trip over
the st. Paul, Burlington and Chicago
Great Western system. says mo one
who has not recently examined these
properties has any idea of their value
and infinite prog1 ess. The service on
the st. Paul, Burlington and Chicago
Great Western is unexcelled. There
is nothing in the East to compare,
much less to equal it, and it towers
fundamentally over any other tran
sportation In any part of the world
The train service of these three oorpo.
rations is superb. Until recently the
Pennsylvanea limited, out of New
York, to Chicago, was believed to be
ideal, but 30 thorough is the service
Of the Chicago Great Western, with
the buffet cars. with their bulk heads,
stained glass windows, and thorough
electrical equipment, that the Penn
sylvania people have ordered their re-
nowned "Chicago Limited" nto the
shops that it may be rebuilt, OF rather
modernized, after the cars that are in
service on the Chicago Great Western.
l think the future OF this property is
very great The earnings are away
ahead of what they were year ago
and the outlook Is brighter.

THE PATENT COMMISSION.
Recommendations to Congress
Before the New Year.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The govern
ment patent commission, which has
been inquiring into needed changes in
the system, expects to submit Its re-
port to congress about the beginning
Of the New Year. 1t has practically
decided to recommend that applicants
for patents who applied abroad pre-
vious to filing here be given priority
here from the date Of application
abroad, If application is fled within
seven months thereafter. The effect
VI this is to antedate the application
here, giving it the date when it was
filed in the foreign country. 1t also
doubtless will recommend abolishing
caveats. The trade mark matters, how
ever, present great difficulties. The
commission is seeking to proceed as far
as possible and is anxious to effect a
general trade mark law to which, how
ever, q recent supreme court decision
stands in the way. The commission is
now considering proposition to in
clude in it's scope the consideration of
these matters in the new territorial
acquisitions of the United States.
Whether it is authorized to do SO is not
quite determined, but If it's duties are
SO extended it opens up a wide field
Of labor, involving important compli-
cations, principally in the way Of con-
fict with the original schemes in the
lElands acquired.

Late Literary News

When Stephen Crane wrote "The
Red Badge Of Courage" he had never
been in field of battle and knew
nothing of military affairs. His work
excited great admiration. But later
on he went to Cuba and was in the
front at San Juan Hill, and in the
December COSMOPOLITAN we have an
other story, this tine from a real field
of battle, entitled 1.-The Wool OF Thin
Red Threads" 1t will be interesting
for those who are familiar with his
previous work to compare the two
the imaginary and the real.
Apropos of the name COSMOPOLITAN
it is rather curious to note that the
December issue of that magazine con-
tains one article having to do with
Spain. another with India, another
with japan, another with Cuba, an
other with Jamaica, another with
England, another with Rome and
still another with France. This is a
pretty wide range,

charge of murder committed in Dem

year, Detective Moore was shot and
killed while taking two prisoners to

good his escape and until the present

mystery. A Mrs. Golfer, Of Orange, now
comes forward with the information
that Hancock in q burst OF confidence
confessed to her that he killed Detec-
tive Moore. He was then travelling I'M

convey the information that man
named F. A. Benton served term in
the Colorado penitentiary for burglary.

Paris, Dec. 5.-There was no joint
session of the peace commission Sat
urday. The Americans had three
hours meeting, however.
The report from Berlin that Germany
is negotiating for the purchase of the
Caroline islands is confirmed from sew
eral quarters, although Count Won
misunderstanding, the German am
bassador here, informed q correspond
ent of the press that he knew nothing
at all about the matter. The American
commissioners are inclined to believe
the report, and it is looked upon as eN-
planning the reluctance of the Span
iards to give the Americans an answer
in regard to the Caroline islands, as
well as on the question of religious lib
erty there, and the latest developments
confirm the report that the Spaniards
have been instructed not to yield on
these points until they have made
good bargain.
Not Discouraged at Outlook.
Washington, Dec. b.-While it is be-
ginning to be recognized that the
the work Of the peace commissioners
in Paris in time for the Americans to
take the steamer of the 10th for home,
the officials are not discouraged at the
outlook, knowing that the delay in the
proceedings of the commission admits
of reasonable explanation at some
points. For instance, there has been
some difficulty in reaching an agree
ment as to the disposition Of the pub
lie property in the Philippines, includ-
ing war material, guns and stores. 1t
seems, however, likely now that the
commissioners will agree to adopt a
plan for the disposition of these claims
based upon the procedure that gov
erned in the case of the Spanish prop
critics in Porto Rico. It will not be
necessary, it is hoped, to send joint
evacuation commission to Manila, as
was done in the evacuation Of Porto
Rico, but simply to adopt the plan laid
down by the Porto Rican commission.
