CENTRE FOR RAILROAD TIES.

LEN l1lf r Ofs fIsAlLtNOAD IIEsS
According to Greater Buffalo, Buffalo
city is an important centre for the trade
in wooden railroad ties. One of the larg-
est orders recently given was received by
a firm in Saginaw, Mich, for the Wander
bilt lines. 1t is for 100000, or approx
mately $4,000 ties. All this lumber is to
shipped from Manistique to Buffalo to be
distributed from the latter city over the
various branches of the Vanderbilt sys-
tenn. From 2,6G0 to ESQ ties are used in
the construction of a mile of track White
oak is the wood in most general use in
this country. A large number of cedar
ties also find their way to market, while
hemock and tamarack are sometimes en-
ployed on roads where the traffic is light.
The New York Central now uses yellow
pine ties almost exclusively, being cheap
er, and is is said more durable also.

Favors woman's Suffrage.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. s.-AIbany is the
center of suffrage agitation.
The female advocates and opponents OF
woman suffrage were wrought up oyer
Governor Roosevelt's message, in which he
advocates gradual extension of suffrage to
women. There was great perpleXity among
the ladies interested as TO what the gov
ernor really meant.
To an Associated Press representative
the governor tonight said that what he
meant in the message was a gradual eX-
tension of suffrage to women. How far to
extend it he is not certain. He believes the
condition of "A large number OF women
could be bettered. He is not sure that
legislation can accomplish much, but if it
can do a little he is willing to try it.
Woman suffrage has worked well in the
school district in which Oyster Bay is sit
uated, and the governor thinks it may
work well elsewhere.
