Huntington Noncommittal.

A New York dispatch says: c. P.
Huntington was asked last night
whether he was interested in the pur-
chase of the Galveston, La Porte and
Houston Railroad, which was bid in at
foreclosure sale two or three days ago
by George G. Holt, of Woodstock,
Conn.,, for 100000. This 'railroad was
ordered sold by the United States
court in Texas some time ago,
but the upset price OF $500, 600
was higher than any bid received.
Subsequently the upset price was re-
duce. Mr.. Huntington would not say
yesterday tibet the road had been
bought for him, but he intimated that
such might be the case. He said that
he was interested with persons who
were going to bid for the road. He did
not know Mr.. Holt, and therefore was
not prepared to say whether or not his
friends had secured possession of the
property. Mr.. Huntington said he had
personally made an offer for the Gal
weston, La Porte and Houston some
time ago, but it was refused.

Santa Fe and Cotton Belt.

A Chicago special TO the Dallas News
says: A contract has been signed by
the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Rail-
road company and the St. Louis South
western Railroad company whereby
the former will have entrance for its
trains into Sherman over the tracks of
the St. Louis Southwestern and the lat
ter will run its trains into Dallas over
the tracks of the Santa Fe.
This arrangement will apply to both
freight and passenger trains and lie
virtually the same thing as the extern
sion of the Santa Fe to Sherman and
the Cotton Beft to Dallas, and even
better, for the joint use of the tracks
will divide the expense.
Each of the lines will maintain Sc
parate freight depots at Sherman and
Dallas.
The Santa Fe will enter Sherman
via Wolfe City and the Cotton Belt
will enter Dallas via Wylie.
The arrangement will take effect
just as soon as the connecting tracks
can be built at Wolfe City and Wylie.
The operation of the Santa Fe into
Sherman and the Cotton Belt into Dali
las, it is believed, will affect a large
volume of business in north Texas.

Superintendent Martin of the G. H.

''Texas."
The railroads leading into Ell Paso
are all troubled with washouts aud all

The T. P. are turning out many new
box cars. The past season was the
most prosperous in the history of the
company and they are preparing for
the coming season.
If ever you hear that q man is re-
signed to his troubles, you many know
that it is because he has to be and
that the troubles are in q manner
rightfully troublesome.
The American railroad laborers are
complaining on account of the Mexi-

Mexican will work for nothing and
subsist on atmosphere while the Amer.

principle does not require the accept
sncs of places of profit or honor, and
the neglect of the company's business
on such accounts will not be tolerated.
SIT will not be difficult for an officer
or employe to properly draw the line
between his duties to the company and
to his country: he will constantly bear
in mind that his views upon every
subject and his fair ex-
preston at the polls, the primaries
or else where, are matters with which
the company has nothing whatever to
do; but the company rightfully demands
that no officer or employe shall accept
any public Office or take such part in
the affairs of political Or
CARNATIONS as will either interfere
with the performance of his particular
duties to the company, or tend to place
the company in the false position OF
appearing to be itself engaged in poll

Weight Of


Some of the six-inch and all of the
lesser calibers are rapid-ire guns.
The powder charges are. roughly,
about one-half of the projectiles.
The smaller guns composing the
secondary batteries are one, three,
Hotchkiss and Driggs-Schroeder pat
terms. The machine guns are of sew
eral patterns, including the Calling,
Colt, Hotchkiss, Maxim and Maxim
Nordenfeldt.
The small arms consist of the modifi-
ed Lee magazine rifle, caliber 236, and
the Colt revolver, caliber .38.
The projectiles used are shells and
,shrapnel, the former being of two va
rieties, common ana armOr-piercing.
Common shells are of cast steel. and
are exploded by percussion fuses. Ar
NOR piercing shells are of highly tenn
pered steel. with specially hardened
heads to prevent them from breaking
up on contact with armor. A small
nOsecap is commonly put on the tip to
preserve the latter until it has entered
the armor. Armor-piercinR shells
have no fuses aud are exploded by the
piercing.
Nickel-shesthed bullets are used in the
small-srm rifles, aud ordinary lead bull
lets in the revolver.
Nearly all the torpedoes are of the
Whitehead type, carrying $50 pounds
of gun-cotton and propelled by gas
engine within, although there are a
few Howell torpedoes. which are
driven through the water by fywheel
rapidly revolving. Torpedoes are
launched through the tubes on board
ship by means of exploding small
charge of powder.
Sword bayonets are provided for the
rifles, and cutlasses are still in use.

turned down. and requested the
HERALD man to look it up. Recorder
Patterson was the first one interview
ed on the subject and he said: I'm my
opinion the rejected men are entitled
to the amount advanced for examine
ton. Take for example an insurance
company. They refund q man his
money in case he is rejected. think
it no more than right that it should
be-" Another lawyer of recognized
ability said: "They expect more than
they will get if they appeal to the law
for q return of the examination fee up
on being rejected. In the first place,
no agreement exists to that effect and
in the second place no one issdound to
be examined. For instance" said he,
''you 60 to doctor to be examined on
your general health and he tells you
that you are physicsly defective,
would you expect to get away without
paying him for his trouble in examin-
ing you? By no means. It Is an un-
reasonable demand on the part
of the men and will not be rec
ognized In court. There are q great
many men crowding into Ell Psso at
present who have been rejected on
other roads and expect to pass ex-
animation here. AS matter of course,
they are physically disqualified and
are rejected and then howl goes up. "
Two other attorneys were interviewed
on the subject and they seemed to be
of the same opinion of the latter, SO it
is altogether probable that when two
dollars is deposited with the examin-
ing physician it is there to stay.

Bad management Keeps more people
in poor circumstances than any other
one cause. To be successful one must
look ahead and plan ahead SO that
when q favorable opportunity presents
itself he is ready to take advantage of
it. A little forethought will also save
much expense and valuable time. A
prudent and careful man will keep a
bottle of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house,
the shiftless fellow will wait until
necessity compels it and then ruin his
best foregoing for a doctor and have a
big doctor bill to pay, besides; one
pays out 25 cents, the other is out a
hundred dollars and then wonders why
his neighbor is getting richer while he
