Too Liberal with Passes.

The passenger officials of the Chicago &
Alton lines are disturbed over the number
of passes that one of the lines TO Kansas
City has issued to secure business, and last
evening A. ID. Perry, district passenger
agent of the Chicago & Alton, said that in
order to meet the concessions made by
other lines on Kansas City business and to
equalize the rate concession that the c.. &
A. is likely to announce that they will issue
one ticket free for every two paying pas
sengers going to Kansas City. He says 1t
is a known fact that the Vandalia line and
the Missouri Pacific have agreed to issue
twenty free tickets TO members of Chair
man Martins crowd, and they will not
agree to send half that number of paying
passengers. The German-American Club,
with fourteen members going, and seven
to get free tickets, and the Cleveland Club.
taking the Lebanon Ban and seven of
their members go free, and only sixteen
paying passengers to go. Mr.. Perry says
this is in direct violation of agreements of
Western lines. The matter is now before
the presidents at Chicago, and chances are
that the contracts will have to be can
celed or allow the Alton TO carry out its
plan of giving one free for every two pay
ing passengers.

LIKELY TO POOL ISSUES
SOME SIGNIFICANCE IN THE ACTION
OF WESTERN PRESIDENTS.
The Chicago & Alien Alleges Gross
Violation of Agreements Oh the
Part of Its competitors

The four committees appointed at the
presidents conference in New York last
Saturday are composed of railroad men
who have shown themselves active in be-
half of harmony and uniformity Of rates.
Complete restoration of w~est-bound rates
at this time will be difficult because of the
many contracts entered into between car
riers and shippers whereby the latter are
TO be granted concessions until Jan. /. 1t
Will probably be impossible TO secure a
cancellation Of all these contracts, and
whatever arrangement is agreed TO by the
traffic men or presidents will have to take
into consideration the existence of these
deals and the conditions involved. 1t is not
unlikely that there will be presented to the
presidents propositions to pool issues on
all competitive business and to make the
agreement effective as to lines in the vari-
Gus territorial divisions. There is a double
significance in the action of the Western
railroad presidents in separating the sec
ton Of country traversed by their lines into
four divisions and appointing a
Of executive officers to look after each d.
vision. This action indicates a clear reali-
zation on the part of the presidents of the
deplorable rate conditions now prevalent in
the West, and also a disposition on their
part. to apply investigation and remedies in
a systematic and detailed manner.

chief officers. His election az one OF the
directors OF all the new lines the Pennsyl-
vania is acquiring in the East is said TO be
in the line of the transfer spoken Of. With
Mr.. McCrea going East. doubtless j. T.
Brooks, second vice president, will be made
first vice president of the Pennsylvania
lines west and the usual promotions would
follow.
the railroads on the Fourth of July will
travel at a half-fare rate this year. All
the railroad companies have made conces-
sions which are an Improvement over last
year. The Central Passenger Association
disposed of the question at a meeting held
in Chicago. Last year the rate was one
and one-third fare. An effort was made to
have the same rate prevail again this
year, but il was voted down. Local pas
senge agents anticipate an unusually
heavy business. They base their claims on
the fact that the times were never better
and the rank and file have been getting
higher wages.
Two complete locomotives coupled to-
gether is the new type of railway engine
for steep grades just finished and shipped
by the Baldwin locomotive works to the
st. Cloud River Railway. a part of the
Southern Pacific system in California. 1t
is a Notwithstanding motor. which will
pull 15 tons of freight, aside from the
heavy cars, up a Z per cent. grade. which is
a rise of $50 feet to the mile, TO say moth
ing of lifting its own enormous weight of
16l, 400 pounds. Bars connect the two en-
gines and render them practically one.
One engineer. by a single operation of the
throttle lever. manipulates the dual mon
ster. Each engine has six forty-inch driv-
ing wheels, but no flexible trucks, such as
have given much trouble to engineers.
Each has four cylinders. two high and two
low pressure, using the vauclain compound
system.
The Erie Railroad Company, through its
passenger agent. d. L. Roberts. has given
formal notice that because of violations of
the joint passenger agreement by other
lines it considers itself absolved from OBJ
servance of the compact. This trouble has
been brewing for some time and 1t reached
the critical stage at the recent meeting
of the joint passenger committee in New
York city. At that meeting the Erie and
other differential lines demanded hat the
excess fare rule, which is applied to west
bound trains in trunk-line territory, also
be applied to eastbound trains running
between Chicago and New York. but the
demand was objected to by the general
passenger agents of the Western connec-
tions of the trunk-line roads. This rule
directs that an excess fare at the rate of
81 an hour be charged on all trains max
ing the run from New York city to Chicago
in less than twenty-eight hours.

Convention Rates.

There has been considerable correspond
ence between general passenger gents of
Eastern and Western lines regarding re-
duced rates for certain conventions and
other large meetings in the West. For
several big meetings to be held in Denver
and other Western points the Western rail-
roads made a round trip rate of one fare
plus 81. The Central Passenger Association
followed this by agreeing to charge a
round trip rate of one fare plus 81 to Chi
cago. and the Trunk-line Association took
similar action. Some of the Western lines
think that the Eastern lines ought to make
half rates to Chicago without charging an
extra 81 between New York and Buffalo
and another extra 81 between Buffalo and
Chicago. The Eastern lines. however, are
not disposed to agree with the Western
lines on this point.

CASE OF FRED KETTLEHAKE TO BE
TAKEN UP IN SEPTEMBER.
The Reasons Assigned for the POST
pOnement-Grand Jury InveG-
tigation-Court Cases.

The case of Frederick Kettlehake. who
drove through the streets with a shot gun
in his buggy last spring, and shot down
and killed Frederick Simon in front of
his store at Market and Noble streets, that
was taken to Noblesville On change of
venue, has been continued until the Sep
TENDER term of court. Prosecutor Pugh
desired an early trial, and had the case
set for June is, but the defense said its
evidence could not be procured by that
time. The Hamilton court closes June
%. and Judge Neal said IL the case was
not brought up by that time it would have
TO go over.
City Attorney Kern. who is Kettlehake's
attorney. stated to the court that there
were some dispositions to be taken at Hot
Springs, Ark, before the trial, and that
they could not be secured before the time
of the courts adjournment. Kettlehake's
plea will be insanity, and these deposit
tions are to show his mental condition
while at Hot Springs.
Prosecutor Pugh will go to Noblesville
soon and ask Judge Neal that the trial
be set for the first week in September or as
early in the term as possible.

John Nv. lilo.


There are nine ''abides'' in our Scripture pas

thought.
To "abide In Christ fs. 1t seems. 90 abide
in His love" What Is that? IL Is 20 live as
the child lives. safe and serene. encircled by
the love Of the home. IL r. 10 live as the wife
lives. surrounded by the loving strength OF her
husband. IL is not TO worry. never to be lone
ly. to have no fear in danger. no discourage
ment IN failure, no shrinking before obstacles.
And this abode is possible for every one. even
for the homeless Wanderers.
II must be. We learn. a continual abiding.
Our homes are valued the more when we must
be a long time absent from them; but this
abode we must carry with ts or IL is not ours
at all. No one can "abide In Christ" by fits and
starts.
For. II we abide In Him. He abides In Us. His
abiding is the test OF our abiding. n we md
Him in our lives. we may be sure that we haze
entered into His life. And His abiding Is also
the power OF our abiding. IL Is only by His
grasp on US that our grasp on Him can keep
from slipping. II Is only by His continual In
dwelling that our continual dwelling In Him -

The grand jury has taken up the inves-
tigation of saloons purporting to be run
by the men who procured the licenses, but
said to really be operated by the Indian
apolis Brewing Company. 1t is alleged
hat there are twenty such cases in the
city and that the men who procured the
licenses are employees of the brewery, hav-
ing no interest in the saloons at all. The
law specifies that the applicant for license
must be the owner and proprietor of the
saloon, and an effort will be made to re-
turn indictments for perjury against the
men who swore falsely. The management
of the brewery can also be indicted for
selling liquor without license.
The investigation is the outgrowth of a
protest filed before the commissioners to
prevent a license being granted under this
condition. The complainant was a whole
sale liquor dealer.
