DELANO GETS PLACE
Superintendent of Motive Power
Succeeds Mr.. Brown as @
General Manager.
YOUNG MAN FOR rHE POSITION
Begins Railway Service in 1885
as a Machinist APP
prentice.

w. &. Browns resignation as gen
eral mansger of the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy railroad was accepted by
the directors of the company yester
day. Mr.. Brown has formally &C
cepted the vice esidency of tie
Lake Shore IL Michigan Southern rail-
way, and will assume the duties of his
new position July L.
1t is learned from reliable authority
that +. A. Delano, present superin
tendent of motive power of the Bur
lington railway system. will succeed
Mr.. Brown as general manager of the
company. This comes rather as a
surprise, as it had been all along un
derstood that Howard Elliott, gen
eral manager of the Burlington
lines in Missouri. would succeed Mr.
Brown in case the latter would GO
TO the Lake Shore. 1t is understood
that strong pressure has boon brought
to bear on Dir. Elliott to induce him
to accept the position of general
manager at Chicago, as he was con-
sidered the best qualified man for the
position, but he begged to be allowed
10 remain in his present position as
general manager of the Burlington
lines in Missouri. This position he
considered equally as good as the
higher one offered him on account of
the Importance of the Missouri liGes
and his desire to have charge of the
Burlington's interests in St. Louis
during the exposition in that city.
DeIano Is "a Young Man.
+. A. Delano, to whom the position
of general manager of the Burlington
road has been offered, and who. it is
understood. has agreed TO accept, has
been with the Burlington ever since
he entered railway service in 1885.
He is comparatively young man for
so high a position. having been born
on Sept. 10. 1868. at Hong Kong.
China He is graduate of Harvard
university and a skillful and able me-
chanic. He commenced railroad SER
vice as machinist apprentice in
erecting shops for the Burlington at
Aurora, Ill. From July, 1887, to
april. 1889, he was in charge of the
Burlington bureau of street rail in
spcction tests and records. In July.
1889, he was appointed assistant to
he second vice president. aud in
July, 1890, was made superintendent
of freight terminals of the Burlington
at Chicago. From Feb. /. 1899, to
date. he has held the position of

MOTHERS CHARGED WITH
NEGLECT OF CHILDREN.

Complaints have been filed in the
county court against two mothers for
the neglect of their children by G IL.
& rman. superintendent of the Union
Mission.
Mrs. Lena Ohlweiler, whose two
boys. aged 3 and 5 years. were sent a
year ago to the Catholic orphans
home at Metamora. it is alleged, has
failed TO contribute to their support
as she agreed to do.
Mrs. Mary Gudekunst, whose CT
dren were recently sent to this city
from Davenport. where they were
found homeless on the street, cannot
now be found and the little ones are
being cared for at the mission. 1t is
the object of that institution to gain
the legal control of the children of
both women.

it will pay people to take the revenue
stamp into consideration. OF course,
no one would stop sending telegraph
messages for 10 days. hold an express
package the rest of the month to save
penny. but many dollars can be
saved on deeds and mortgages, and
the manufacturers OF proprietary ar
ticles long ago began to restrict their
production in anticipation of a repeal
of the tax.
So far as the general public is con-
cerned the repeal law will be chiefly
grateful because it abolishes the
stamp taxs on bank checks, kilograms,
express receipts and money orders
These are the little taxes. small in
amount, but annoying to the indi-
viGual. What the people AS a whole
will save money on will be the stamps
on conveyances, mortgages, leases
and bonds.
