The Examination System Again.

"Aeitate the examination system"
said L. w. Hosford this morning. 81
for one. would like to see the matter
investigated. 1t places che applicant
at the mercy of the doctor to an I'M
reasonable extent. For instance, the
doctor will at first hold the verse
which the applicant is supposed to read
squarely in front of the eyes. Can
you read that?' is the question asked
A little farther away and can you read
that?' ana 80 on until the letters are so
far away that the applicant could not
read them with field glass. Now you
see, "he continued with q look of indig-
nation, chow the G. H. company can
Systematically dispense with the SER
vices of an employee should they de-
sire to do so. In my estimation it has
ceased to be an examination to deter
mine the value of the applicant, but
simply to let man out of work with
out mourning the displeasure of the
various railroad orders which are in
existence wholly and solely for the pro-
lection of the men whose rights are
being outraged by 'this ABDOMINAL ex-
animation system recently adopted by
the G. II. You may quote me as being
T. P. employee and in favor of hon
est government, but my sympathies
are with my G. II. brothers who are
being forced into q difficulty which
might eliminate in a manner detri-
mental to the G. Fl. company"

Spain's Coal Resources.
from the Independent.

The question of coal even in it's own
country is very serious one to Spain,
While Basque and several of it's pro-
deposits, they are almost inaccessible
from the sea coast and the cost of trans
portation is such that foreign coal is
used almost exclusively in all of the
seaport towns. Fully 95 per cent comes
from Cardiff, in Wales, the bulk of it
being sent in British steam ships which
are bound for the cities on the Medi-
terranean and Suez canal. While q
small tonnage comes from Belgium
and France, the quantity is insignifi-
caut. The present strike among the
miners of the Cardiff regions has de-
veloped to such proportions as serious
ly to curtail the output. This has al
ready raised the price of Welsh coal
considerably, and even were it not
q contraband article since. the declara-
ton OF war, the price, delivered at
West Indian points, would be so high
as to prohibit its importation. Cut off
the main source of fuel supply, and
Spain, it is conceded by those in the
best position to know, would be at the
mercy of the United States or any
other hostile power. England supply
ing the bulk of coal for Spanish use
would prevent any other country from
furnishing it, since such a step would
cut OF her revenue in addition to VIC
latlng the articles of international
agreement relative to contraband ar
tlcles. The predicament in which
Spain Is placed will thus be perceived,
and the end of the present hostilities
may be quickly decided by a far more
peaceful agency than force of arms.

No Switch Lights.

''Just the man I've heeu looking
for,'' said a brakeman yesterday. 81
was reading in your railroad column
where an engine and several cars went
into the ditch west of Ell PasO few
days ago. Don't think I was surprised
at the news. Oh no! Only a wonder
to me that the wreck ira n is not busy
pulling cars out of the ditch all the
time. While you Sleep" he continued,
with look of unquestionable sinceri-
ty, 1--WE are travelling through the
darkness at an awful rate and general
ly sing as we 60, but often times in my
few leisure moments l get down to
studying the dangers of the rail and
actually SILVER in nv shoes. l will,
however, stop right here to explain
why railroading on this end of the S.
P. system is dangerous. The company
have no switch lights to amount to
anything between Lordsburg and Del
Rio and an engineer will go thunder
ing along and possibly crash into an
open switch without the slightest warn
ing. The company is protected by this
state of affairs because after the switch
is torn to pieces by the wreck who can
tell whether it was opened or closed
when the engine struck it? The an
swer is simple enough, No one, and
the company is thereby protected
Near San Antonio the conditions are
altogether different. Every switch
bears signal of being true or defect

Conductors Beware.

1.-The HERALD reporter learned yes
terdsy that the railroad companies
had taken advantage OF the
dull season, not only TO repair the de-
fects in their rolling stock but also &c
ifloat decoys in the railway service.
fssWe could collect $40 a trip on any di-
vision out of Ell Paso," said train
man yesterday, land the individuals
who offer the money are plainly dis
tingulshed from the ordinary hobo. 1t
requires q skilled man in the detective
business to fool US at present, because
we have had all classes of detectives
males and females-to contend with
aud we are getting pretty well along in
this particular line of learning.
81 we'll remember about year ago
when couple approached me. They
left box car east of here at small
station and l questioned them as to
their circumstances and to where they
boarded the train and why they were
there. The man produced most pa
thetic appeal during which he recalled
his numerous misfortunes for years
back. When he reached in his heart
rending appeal, the awful death of his
third child by starvation ir Texas
hamlet'his wife(?) wept bitter tears in
apparent endorsement of what the head
of the box-car family had said. l lis
tened attentively and watched the
move of each with the greatest con-
sideration, but positively refused to
carry them another inch. Now, this
may seem to you an elaborate display
of be artlessuess," he said, looking the
reporter square in the eyes, "but when
tell you that the conductor following
me used his kindness and carried them
about 20 miles and lost his job as q re-
suit, you will stop and think. as l did
on that occasion There was something
in the mans talk that told me he was
a spy. What it was I confess 1 know
not, but nevertheless it was there and
discovered it.
1--WE have a scheme this year that
will make the life of spy very I'M
pleasant. The scheme l can't disclose
at present, but I assure YOU it will have
the desired effect. You will remember
a few months ago the wholesale but
cherry which the railroad officials ex-
ecuted on the divisions between here
and Tucson. One stormy night my
brakeman came to me and with an
earnest appeal secured my consent to
carry an apparently helpless individual
from Lordsburg to Ell Paso. 1 inves-
tigated and found the man to be
as represented, an apparently lifeless
mass of human flesh. Without the
huOwlOoeO vi JUG oupPOoO0-eO-OS IL
valid told my brakeman to carry him.
Now, what was the consequence?
Well, when we arrived at Ell Paso my
brakeman received order that his SER
vices were not longer required. The
man who plished this unprin-
cipled act walked about the streets of
Ell Paso for weeks afterward aud boast
ed of the act, which he, in his degrad-
ed state, supposed was great. 1 think
its wrong, at it serves in time to bring
an hones:-hearted railroad man on q
level with a ahobo, both in principle
and practice
