edge was taken off the rise in the last

Cence. Moreover it was announced
that the final $5,O00,000 warrant in con-
nection with the Spanish indemnity
would be deposited on Monday in
local bank, which announced that all
the needed exchange had been secured
end this was favorably interpreted as
to it's probable effect on sterling ex-

money, although often misleading, were
thought to forecast favorable bank

The Railroad Sky is
Cloudy.
WESTERN POINTS
Are Giving Trouble to New
England Companies.

! Worcester railroad men were consid-
erably disturbed yesterday by a report
which came from Boston stating that
before another week passed one of the
biggest siashing Of passenger rates
known to New England for years would
be recorded and railroad officials would
have chance to meet occasionally to
decide on rates as well as to drop
around and draw money.
1t has been some time since New Eng.
land railroad men have had an open
rate war on their hands, and for this
reason they predict that when the
storm bursts it will be a big one. The
| long period of peace had more than
satisfied railroad men that as far as
New England was concerned, people
would have to pay the same for a, ride
on one road as on another, but by the
VOCATION OF an aEreement relating to
second class rates from Boston to points
on the Pacific coasts ali railroad Off
Gals have made ready for trouble
Ihe rate to western points via direct
lines with connections either at St.
Paul or Chicago should be, according 20
the agreement made by the railroad
ofticials, $6775, and via the Boston and
Maine and Canadian Pacific $6540.
Ihe agreement was strictly main
tanned for some time until business
Ragged perceptibly, and the agents of
the direct lines suspected that the Bos-
ton and Maine and Canadian Pacific
roads We're cutting rates. The result
was that the direct lines reduced the
rate secretly, and after a time became
oold enough to openly quote the So. 40
rate which was accorded to the Boston
and Maine and Canadian roads at the
Iconterence, ana leaving the Boston and
maine road out in the cold as far as
second class passenger traffic was con-
cerned.
| The route by way of the Boston and
Albany, New York Central and Lake
Shore roads is much shorter than by
way OF the Boston and Maine and Cam
tadtan Pacific route, and as the travelling
punlc want to travel fast, the Boston
ana Maine was somewhat short on pas
senSer traffto al around.
AS the Boston and Maine and Canad-
ian Pacific routes are longer, it is moth
| lqg more than fair according to the
views or Worcester railroad men, that
they should pc granted a 'NdifferenttaI''
as 1t is called in railroad circles, by the
direct routes. All previous traffic agree
ments hara been made on this basis and
tRe routes having the longer haul have
| always insisted on lower rate for adj
dftional time taking.
The trouble may be averted by the
direct routes returning to the old
schedule, but chances are that they will
not retreat from the stand they have
taken, and the war viii go merriIy on.
| Both roads are wealthy corporations
and will put up q game fight if pushed
to it.
Charles A, Waite, local passenger
agent of the Boston and Maine railroad.
said Yesterday to The Spy man that he
did not know Of any such move on the
part of the Boston and Maine officials.
although it would be possible for the
road to cut rates without his knowing
II. Other railroad officials seemed TO
place considerable credence in the story,

TRIMMINGS AND HATS.
Beautiful Effects in Berries, Fruits and
Flowers.

Mrs. Kate Schofeld's millinery es
Establishment seemed to be defying The
weather to do it's worst yesterday. the
second day of the spring opening The
bright bits of color and the flowers
made pretty contrast with the white.
ness of the outside snow and the alto.
! gether unpleasant sleet. One could moi
help stopping TO look in the windows in
which are displayed some of the new
est ideas in spring trimmings and hats
Fruit and berries are to be used ex.
tensiyely this season, and I'm one Of the
windows are shown strawberries and
clover which look, II possible, more
natural than life. set against a back
ground of cornfower and snow balls
and Violets, while in one corner a mass
of pansies seem to be waiting to be
| picked.
Near the door on the inside is a dis
| play of fancy braids, one of the novel
ties in this line being a peculiarly
braided ribbon used for frames and
trimming An unique sort OF straw
braid appliqued on chiffon is one OF
this seasons oddities. This is used for
crowns and trimming. One of the new
bits of foliage shown is q fern leaf
which has all the appearance of the
real thing, while on the larger foliage
pieces tiny butterflies in applique work
are being used.
There is one case near the door in
which is placed some of the new effects
in berries and fruits and roses, Some
of the roses, by the way. are larger
than any Of last year, and the color
ings are better These are inter-
mingled with ribbons Of the new
shades, corona and automobile. A
number of white flowers are shown,
too and some of the yellows in ribbons
are used in combination with white
and black to produce very pleasing
effect
In ready trimmed hats, number OF
the Dewey sailors are to be seen. These
are narrow brimmed, rough chips
trimmed in the more expensive styles
in Roman scarfs. There are not as many
styles Of sailors shown at present as
formerly, and the tendency seems to
be toward narrow brims and rough
straw.
1t would be impossible to describe
the number and variety of styles
shown by Mrs. Schofield. The only way
to really appreciate them is to go anc
see for oneself.

FEW ARE DISABLED,
Police viii Not Necessarily be Retired
on Reaching Specified Length of Service

Officials of the police department
wish to correct an erroneous impress
sion that appears to have been gained
by some people, in their Interpretation
of the recent movement TO pension
members Of the police and fire depart
ments,
1t does not necessarily follow be-
cause a man has served the time spe-
Gifted, that he shall be placed on the
retired list, although this matter is left
to the discretion Of the mayor and
board of aldermen. Out Of the score OF
more of members of the police depart
ment eligible to the pension list, there
are very few cases, not more than
three or four at the outside, who are
really so as to be unfit for service.
Many of the officers in the depart
ment have served 20 years or more, but
are still hale and perfectly competent

NOT IN IT.
Taber Organ Works
Not Included
IN COMBINATION.
President Clark Hears
Nothing From New Trust.

| Dispatches from New York state that
an effort is being made to consolidate
builders of pipe organs into a trust.
The initiative has been taken by Chi
cago capitalists, who are now in the
east consulting builders.
These who are in favor of the plan
are reported to be the smaller firms,
and the larger firms are not willing to
commit themselves. 1t is reported the
proposed trust would have a capital of
nearly s50,O0O,OOO, and, according to the
propositions laid down by the promo
ters, would operate two large factories,
one to be located in the west and the
other in this city.
The representative of the Chicago
capitalists who visited this city was L.
S. Potter. When asked who the other
promoters We're besides himself, Mr..
Potter was not inclined to tell. This
refusal of what is considered important
information led some of the represent
atives who were seen to be a little sus-
pic1ous. 1t is thought by some that the
plan to form an organ trust is ad-
vanced by w. w. Kimball Company
organ builders in Chicago.
When seen yesterday c. c. Michel
of the firm of George Jardine & Sons.
this city. said:
Nothing will come of it, No one will
take any notice of it. 1t IS, think, a
scheme to take the trade west. None
Of the leading firms will entertain it."
George S. Hutchins, one Of the larg
est builders in the country, said:
while we admit that combination
which promises to be beneficial to the
organ building industry might be pos
sible, the probability Of anything like
a general agreement upon which soc
cess would depend IS a condition which
we hardly expect ever will be formed
to be made practically
President Clark of the Taber Organ
Company, 10 Union street, also ownera
of the Loring Blake Organ Company
told The Spy man yesterday afternoon
that he had no knowledge OF the conn
bine and no propositions had been
made to him by any Of It's agents. His
company had been IN the business fol
some years, and two years ago they
absorbed the Loring & Blake Company
Their work was we'll known all over
the country, and it is fair to assume
that in any deal the Taber Company
must be taken into consideration.

DELIGHTFUL CREATIONS,
Graceful Hats With Delicate Color Com
binations.

The spring opening of the Barnard.
Sumner e. Putnam millinery depart
ment, which began Tuesday, was un-
usually well attended yesterday in spite
of the storm. The opening will last all
tho week, and new goods Will be shown
each day. The ladies who have already
seen and raved over the delightful crea-
tions in imported hats and the equally
beautiful products of the firms trim
mers, need TO go every day to realize to
the fullest extent Just what may be had
On the way of headgear this season.
The hats shown are, If anything, more
graceful than those of last spring, and
the color combinations are more deli
cate and less obtrusive than formerly.
Flowers are used in abundance, violets
and roses being the faVorites, while the
smaller blossoms, ouch as heather, and
the bright berries have their places.
Fancy braids are prominent in the con-
struction of the frames and In trimming
and in place of the many oolored rib
rons OF last year are used ribbons Of
one color, or at the outside. of four col
ors only. Chiffon is still a favorite for
trimming, and a large number OF this
years hats have strings OF chiffon, vel
vet or ribbon The silk scarfs in Roman
stripes that were worn last year have
gone entirely out, though chiffon soarfd
are used to some extent in trimming
and some very handsome ones are
shown for neckwear.
Some of the particularly striking hats
to be seen at Barnard, Sumner & Put
MANS have for their color scheme the
new shade OF lavender which IL almost
blue, while others are made bright
with touch of the new shade, corona,
which is about the same thing as the
cerese Of past years. One particularly
striking importation has for its ground
work q frame OF steel grey braid and
chiffon and is trimmed with two shades
of violets and cerese ribbon, making a
dream of loneliness.
There is more latitude to be had in
the selection Of shapes this year. as the
hats run from a medium size to very
large, yet there are but few Of the big
picture hats Of last sea.on shown. For
the sake OF the Audubon Society ii 10
well today that feathers and birds have
a very small place on the SO spring hat.
