Rail Road Information.

FROM d SChGlSllCdl report recently re-
ceived from Jesse d Newton formerl,
ofthis city ana now connected witt.
the Interstate commerce Commissioners
office i'll Washington the Times is
able to give some interesting infor-
nation concerning the rail roads in tn.
United States. Following is selec-
ton from the report.
Employees.
The number of persons employed by
the railways Of the United States as re
ported OH June 3d. 1899, was 1923, 1924, or
an average of 495 employees per ont
hundred miles of line. AS compared
with the number on June 30
1888, there was an increase of 50, 36f, OF
81 per 100 miles of line. From the
classification of these employees it ap.
pears there were 1890 enginemen, Al.
l52 tiremen, 1922 conductors, and 60
497 other tralnmen. There were 4S,
$50 switch men, tlagmen, and watch
men. Upon the basis of special returns
made to the ST cretary of the commits
sion, it appears that the number of
switchmen, tlagmen and watchmen in
cluded in this aggregate could fairl,
be assigned in the proportion of 6
and 2 respectively.
Dlsregarding 1884 employees not
assigned to the four general divisions
of employment, it is found that the
services of 34,l7C employees were re
qnired for general administration, 287,
463 for maintenance of equipment, and
1l7,508 for conducting transportation
The report contains statement of the
average daily compensation of eight
cen classes of employees for eight
years beginning with 1892. A sum
mary in the report also gives the tota
compensation of more than 90 per cen,
of railway employees for the fisca
years 1895 to 1899
During the wear ending June 81
1899, 1922, 1867 1896 were paid in wage.
and salaries. an amount $77.459, 635, in
excess of that paid during 1895. The
compensation of the employees OF
railways for 1899 represents 60 PEI
cent of their operating expenses, ant
40 per cent of their gross earnings.

Philadelphia Telegraph in comment
ing on Mr. Ottendorfer's remarks says:
1T is one of the evils entailed upon
this country by our neglect to regulate
aud limit the admission of foreign
Immigrants that we should be COM
PEELED to make allowance for the great
body of voters who act tOgether not as
Americans but az foreigners.
1T is an unspeakable national mis-
fortune that the BALLOT which controls
our destinies cannot be in the hands
exclusively of American citizens who
know what they are about in politics
and will vote according to the dictates
Of common sense. Common sense has
no sway. however, when people are
frightened, and Mr. Ottendorfer tells
US that the erman-American is under
the dominion of fear. Like 9 flock OF
frightened sheep they are flying from
imagined perils. That dread cry Of
imperialism" has started them in 9
panic, and they are cunning pellmells
into the Bryanite fold. So much for
and exercise the full rights of citizen
lzed." . ~
The Germans have not had the rep.
utation from the time of Hermann TO
Btsmark or from @DeKslb to Sthley
of being towards, but now they are
thrown into panic of fear, have lost
their common sense and are going to
vote for Bryan.
True, some millions of American
born will vote for Bryan but the Tele-
graph says "cowards" only to--the
German. Americans who have Rerer-.
ally supported republican. policies but
are DESERVING the republican party by
thousands.

HOW TO LIKE WAGNER,
Scenic Accessories Are Necessary to
a Perfect Realization.

Scenic AccessOries Are Necessary to
Perfect Realization.
The strict Wagnerite refuses to hear
the music of his favorite composer in
the concert room. 1t was never intend
ed, he will tell you, to be performed by
itself, but to be played as an accompa-
niment to the action, for the purpose
of heightening the effect of the intense
ly dramatic situations coupled with
gorgeous stage pictures that are in
separable from Wagner's famous art
work.
The most important part of Wag-
ner opera, according to the composer
himself, is not the music, but the
drama, which, indeed, the beginner
should closely follow with the aid Of
the book Of words, since the music is
usually sung in German words.
The intending Wagnerite should also
begin with the masters most popular
works, "Tannhauser" and "Lohengrin."
He will then at once recognize the ia
miliar music he has already heard so
often at concerts, and, struck by its
Beauties he will attend many perform
ances Of these two. Next year he will
want to hear these again, supplement-
ed by Christian und Isolde" that won
derful music drama so charged with
intense emotion and passion. Having
heard Christian" and liked it, he there
upon becomes a full fiedged Wagnerite
in the true sense, and the season after
he attends performances Of the Ring
der Nibelungen," or he may make a
supreme effort to get to Baireuth.
From Baireuth he returns the ardent
disciple of a musician whose name he
terrifies his friends by pronouncing in
the German fashion, not Wagner, but
'Vaachkner."-L Mail.

Rockville news in Hartford Times A
Mr.. Smith OF Stafford Springs was unable
to find his team when he went to get 1t at
Crystal Lake late Saturday night. It
was soon ascertained that 1t had been
taken by two Hartford men, who had been
driven over from Rockville In the after
noon to attend the farmers picnic. 1t
was thought probable that the men had
driven to Rockville and Mat Herman, who
was just starting for home, was instructed
to look out for the team. He found the
horse hitched on Main street, in front of
the Butler block, when he reached Rock
vile. The horse was not injured, but the
end of one shaft of the carriage was bro
ken. The team was placed In the hands
of the police, and Mr.. Smith was notified
that his team was all right. Mr.. Smith
came to Rockville Sunday morning and
secured his team, but did not care to
make any complaint against the men.
