Railway Transportation.
The recent session OF the Iowa legis-
lature passed three acts affecting rail-
roads. The first one regulates the assess
ment of sleeping and dining cars. The
annual statements of the railroads must
"show the average daily sleeping car and
dining car service operated on each divl-
sion" The second enlarges the power
to condemn. Section 1898 of the code Of
Iowa is amended so that any company
operating a completed railroad shall have
power to condemn lands for necessary
additional depot grounds cor yards, for
additional or new right of way for con-
structing double track. reducing o!
strengthening curves, changing grades.
Shortening or relocating portions of the
line, for excavations, entertainments, or
places for deposting waste earth
The third act regulates the sale and
redemption OF tickets, Every railroad
must provide for the redemption at the
place of purchase and at the general
passenger agents office of the whole or
any integral part of any unused passen-
ger ticket that such carrier may hav'
sold; and shall redeem the same at a rate
which shall equal the difference between
the price paid for the whole ticket and
the cost OF ticket between the points for
which said ticket has been actually used.
No carrier shall limit the time 10 which
redemption shall be made to less than
ten days from date of sale at the general
passenger agents office. Where the rate
is regulated by statute tickets sold at the
maximum legal rate must not bear any

Complaint Made ON Account of In.
equality in values.
The assessment OF property by railroads
is one of the most perpiexing and at
times annoying problems with which rail-
way officials are confronted, on account
of the unequal value placed on the prop
erty when compared with other property
rendered for assessment. Following is
from the New Orleans Picayune:
Railroad managers are discussing the
mysteries OF assessment. They are In
cllned to the belief that there IL not
much encouragement given railroads In
this State 10 improve their tracks, hs-
cause such improvements so materially
increase the taxation assessments
"As an instance Of what the assess
ments have done tor railroads" said a
prominent railroad man yesterday. 'there
is a certain line on. Of New orleans
which has bean assessed about $500 more

Panama, Jan. 1.-The officials and
business men of Nicaragua are not dis
turbed over the rejuvenation of the Pa
mama canal scheme. They believe the
Nicaragua plan is the only feasible one.
The Nicaraguan Government would, it
is said, prefer to deal directly with the
American Government in the negota-
tions that are to come, and it is as
serted that more liberal terms would
be given under those circumstances
Nicaragua territory cannot he ceded
but long lease could be obtained. The
attitude of Costa Rica is uncertain.
