Their Sins VIII Find Them Out


THE REPUBLICAN while the Thomas s.

any opinion Of the 10 nocence or guilt OF the
accused. The jury did not take much
time to decide that he was guilty In man

on five counts, and 1t Is likely that he will
receive sentence Of five years in theTren.

the evidence which has been introduced by
District Attorney Lewis c. Vanaegrift.
every one OF the men who stands accused
of aiding and abetting William N. Boggs
to loot the First National Bank at Dover
will unquestionably be convicted Of the
charge for which ne was indicted. From
reading the evidence In Clark trial there
was some tall lying done. But the MEM

THE 2-CENT-A- MILE RATE
THE ROADS WOULD PROFIT BY IT
UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS.
The New York Central to Have One of
the Most CommOdiOus stations in
the WOrId-GeneraI Notes.

w n. McDoel, vice president of the Mo-
non lines, who has given all problems con-
nected with railway operations much study,
was asked what he thought of the efforts
TO make the legal rate 2 cents a mile. 1T
is all right" he said, eff the legislative
bodies will properly protect the railways.
Let the law provide that no person shall
take passage on a train until he or she has
purchased a ticket and paid cents a mile
for it; make it a fineable offeEse for per-
son to attempt to ride on a train unless he
or she has purchased a ticket from the reg
ular agent of the company; then do away
with all excursion rates to all classes of
organizations; make clergymen theatrical
troupes, in fact, everybody that rides on
trains pay the 2 cents a mile. 1 am satisfied
that the revenues of roads from passenger
business would be increased. With a 2-cent
rate there would be fewer fast trains. and
they would do more local work, which
would enable roads to take off some of their
trains. 1t would also lead to other econo-
mics which would result in an increased net
revenue to the roads of Indiana, Illinois and
Ohio. All the roads are running too many
fast trains, and if some of them did accom-
mediation work some of the so-called ac-
commodation trains could be easily taken
off and the travelling public be as well
served A 2-cent-a-mile rate would necessi-
tate some reduction in expense of running
trains; still, / am satisfied the roads would
make more money to do away with all class
es of tickets except one, which would mean
2 cents a mile for every mile that every
person travels on railway But when any
legislative body makes a 2-cent-a-mile rate
it should be the rate for every person that
steps on a train to make trip, whether it
be a legislator, minister. a theatrical
man or any one else"

The New York Central is expending
$500 600 on the Grand Central Depot in New
York city, and when the work of recon-
struction is completed the waiting room will
be the largest in any railway station in
the world This room will be 2OO feet long
by 100 wide and from the floor to the cell
ing will be fifty feet. All the passenger
and baggage business of three railroads is
to be conducted in it. The room will occupy
nearly all the space at the south end of
the present train shed and the entrance
will be on Forty-second street through
foyer 35x45 feet. There are to be two
rooms for ladies. one "a feet square and
the other 20X30 feet. Just off the rotunda
there is to be a general waiting room 3OxS0
feet. A smoking room BOXES feet is also
provided. The biggest Chicago railroad
waiting room would merely occupy one cor
ner of this immense space. In TACT, the
waiting rooms To nearly to all the railroads
that run into Chicago, Boston, Buffalo ana
Philadelphia, if put together, would not oc-
cupy much more space than the new one
now nearing completion. In order to en-
able passengers to go directly to the trains
without passing through the rotunda ac-
cess will be had from the present incoming
station on the east through a vestibule SxlO
feet and from the west. on Vanderbilt av-
enue through foyer 31X65 feet. The new
station will be five stories high. and the
entire structure is to be fireproof. Nine
teen trains can occupy the shed at one time.

There was one man from indianapolis
on board the battle ship Maine He was
Harry j. Keys stepson of John j. Turner
a letter carrier. He is young man TWEEN
ty-one years old. assigned to duty on the
Maine He went on Board the Maine a lit
tie over a year ago. when the ship was
sent to New Orleans to attend the Mardi
Gras in 1891 On the way the ship encouu-
tered a severe storm off Cape Hatteras
and seven men were washed overheard.
Among them was young Keys and two of
his companions. Keys was saved. but his
companions were lost Young Keys was
shipwrecked at another time, when ne went
to England. The boat sunk, but he was
rescued Mrs. Turner, the mother OF young
Keys, received letter from MIN Tuesday.
which was dated Feb. .. In 1t lie described
the ship he In more detail than
before and spoke highly of the captain and
officers. He said he had charge OF a part
cadets and took great pride IN the work.
He was well pleased with his life ana the
treatment he was receiving.
Mrs. Turner was unable 10 learn the rate
of her son yesterday and was greatly dis
tressed. She lives at 5l1 North Liberty
street. She surrounded yesterday by
sympathizing neighbors. Every sound OF ap-
preaching footsteps was taken TO be that
of q messenger bearing news OF her son.
But the expected news never came. Mrs.
Turner hoped for the best. but the failure
of good news TO arrive caused her TO be-
lieve the worst. She telegraphed TO Wash
ngton several times during the day, but
could receive no word of her son. She
learned from his letters that he spent near
~ all his time in attendance on Captain
Slgsbee and the officers and believed on
this account that he must have been ashore
when the explosion occurred But when
they day passed and no news was received
she was inConsolabe
