moist soils the cave must be walled. In

When r. p. Courtney. city passenger

fee yesterday morning he was met by
many friends who expressed regret at the
news of his transfer to the Dallas office
Dick has been representing the Katy in
this city a long time, and during his
residence here ne has made many friends.
They all like him personally and as
railroad man. and in that line Of business
be is considered one of the best The
transfer TO the Dallas office is a compli-
ment to him. as the company has large
northbound business out of that territory
and they would not entrust tho agency TO
any one but a man considered thoroughly
capable in his line. On this account ais
friends here congratulate him on what is
virtually a promotion, ana Wish Tor MN

drawn up by Mr.. c. s. Penheld. addressed
to James Barker, general passenger agent
OF the company in ST. Louis. 1t was a

business men to another business man, and
went on to say that the dealers in prop

competent and gentlemanly at all times
and a valuable man to the company. They
expressed regret at the rumor that he
was TO be transferred from here, and sus

contingency which would not occur, and
that Mr.. Courtney would be retained In

They WIN Withdraw.
Cleveland o., January s.--The Brother
hood OF Railway Trainmen have given no
tice OF withdrawal from the Federation of
American Railroad Employees The with
drawal OF the trainmen, IL is said. Will
dishand the federation as other orgauisa-
tons have grievances which they have
been unable to settle with roads because
of the failure OF the federation to unani-
mously sanction strikes. as is required by
the rules OF the order. It is declared the
firemen and telegraphers have grievances
in the East which are serious and that
there may be general disturbance as a
result OF the Withdrawals. which are eff
feotive January 16, The executive officers
held a meeting in Chicago January s, at
which time this course was made neces-
sary by disagreement. The American
Federation is composed OF the following

ductors, the Brotherhood OF Locomotive

ers, and the Brotherhood OF Railroad

for Port Arthur via Shreveport, on which
the loss OF revenue had amounted TO
10 liz cents per 100 pounds In comparison
with what would have been earned had IL
gone TO Galveston. His line had also
handled 1000 bales OF cotton for Port
Arthur via Galveston. on which II had
suffered loss OF revenue OF 13 cents per
100 pounds under the same comparison.
From this he argued that under tho pres
eut adjustment Port Arthurs disabilities
are being cqualized al the expense OF the
transportation lines. Cotton going to
Port Arthur via Galveston and the Gulf
and Interstate has, MIR. Paukeit said, 70
pay a trackage charge Of 80 cents per
car in addition TO the Gulf and Inter
states division. as there is no way for 1t
to reach Port Bolivar except by passing
over the wharf compsny's tracks
Chairman Reagan said 1t was never
contemplated by The commission that
trackage should be collected by the wharf
company on cars passing through Gall
weston for other ports.
General Attorney Greer OF the peegee
said the reason existing for originally
establishing the Port Arthur difierential
still exists, as the contemplated twenty
Ave foot depth OF water in the Port Ar
thur basin has not yet been obtained. II
was strange TO hear that an old port and
railroad center like Galveston should
come with advantageous insurance rates
and no lighterage TO contend with and
claim that it could not hold Its own
against a new port not yet open. The
very moment twenty-five feet OF water
was obtcined in the Port Arthur basin
the Port Arthur people would enter no
objection to the removal OF the differ
entail. This twenty five feet wAd In
all probability be obtained by March l.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Greer's re-
marks the Port Arthur matter was taken
Under advisement and the question OF
abolishing special rates for so-called re-
turned shipments Of agricultural imple-
ments obtaining on certain lines was
taken up.
Mr.. Jones OF the Houston and Texas
Central was OF opinion that as at pres
ent in effect the authority for making said
special rates was surrounded with sufh-
cient safeguards to prevent an actual dis
tribution OF agricultural implements at half
rates This matter was also taken under
advisement and a proposition to apply
the less than carload mllet seed rate TO
less than carload shipments OF cowpeas
was discussed and the meeting adjourned

Owing to some disagreement between the
hands and the general manager. the mill
