RED TAPE IN ENGLAND.
Some fragrant Cases Brought Out by
the War

Some fragrant Cases Brought Out by
the War.
A month or two ago the commanding
officer of volunteer corps. desiring to
have the services of a worthy and re-
spected clergyman as chaplain, sent in
his name to the war office In reply he
received a form Of printed questions as
| to age, birthplace, character and quail
fications. Among them was the follow
| ing: Has the applicant ever been in
prison, and, If so, for what offence?"
| The idea Of crime in connection with his
| reverend friend seemed so absurd to the
| colonel that he left the question unan-
swered. Rep tape, in the person Of
war office clerk, looked at it in differ
ent light. The blank in the form sug-
gested to him only one thing, and that
was official I'VE note that you give no
answer to Question No. =" he wrote to
the colonel 1--WE hope this does not i'm
ply that the person you name has been
convicted We shall be glad of a def
mite answer on this point"
Here detachment from ideas is merely
ludicrous. 1t has, however, another
side. Early in January a battalion was
ordered to the front which was short of
officers. The colonel. knowing that the
twin battalion IN india was exactly the
reverse, write to the war office explain
ing the circumstances, and urgently re-
questing that the full strength of his
command might be made up by an ex-
change, the officers being sent direct to
Durham In great anxiety he waited
week without reply. The day before
he left his own letter was returned to
him, and across 1t a red tape official had
scrawled in blue pencil: This applica-
ton should be sent In duplicate" The
battalion, therefore, sailed from South
ampton short of officers, with perhaps
unfortunate consequences in the field
But red tape knows nothing about ac-
tuality; its limits are bounded by form.

Supt. Ressegue Announces Santa Fe
Change.


General Superintendent Ressegue has
issued an official order announcing the
change in Santa Fe superintendent. The
changes will become effective February l
although the superintendents are now
visiting the divisions over which they

ouainted with the situation. Superindent-
ent D. D. Bailey of the Panhandle diyis-
ion, who takes charge of the Oklahoma
division, was in the city yesterday look
ing over the ground. Superintendent Do
Ian went to Newton last evening, as he
desires to get acquainted with the work
on the Middle division. Superintendent
r. J. Parker Of Newton will take charge
of the Western division, and has already
visited it.
While the change is not officially ef-
fective until February first, Superintend-
ent Dolan's work is practically ended
here. Wichita regrets to lose him. His
energetic administration Of the affairs
of his division of the great road with
which which he IS connected IS a remark

guaged manhood. and his amending devo-
ton to his work has shown great re-
suits for the Santa Fe and for the coun-
try into the Oklahoma division runs.
Everybody liked Superintendent Dolan
from the car wiper to Mr.. Dolan's chief
clerk among employees on the division,
and as wen every membe rof the public
community that was interested in trans
portation traffic. His conscientious
appreciation and qualities for ex-
ecutive labor viii land him high
