SENATOR BERRY HURT
AGED ARKANSAS STATESMAN MET
WITH AN ACCIDENT.

+ LEBANON, Mo-, Dec 19.-United
States Senator ]. H. Berry, of Arkansas,
while en- route to his home at Benton
vile, was badly injured at Newburg to-
day by fall. Senator Berry slipped on
the ice which covered the platform of q
sleeping car, causing the senator to fall
forward into the car. He struck the
stump of his leg on an iron weather
strip, injuring his hip joint. The sur
geons think the hip joint is not dislocated,
but there may be fracture, which would
prove serious at Senator Berry's age.

There was a difference of Judgment
just before the opening of congress, when

SO persistent have been the efforts to
place w II. Truesdale. president of the
Lackawanna road. who came into promi-
hence at Terre Haute on the Vandalia, in
a bad light that the showing that the road
is making In earnings becomes a matter Of
interest. The figures show that. despite the
anthracite coal strike in the year 1900 the
road earned 1917 per cent. on its preferred
stock after paying all interest on bonds for
increase i'm equipment and its operating ex-
penses. Those in position TO know say that
never before did an official accept the posi-
ton Of president OF a road under such dis
advantageous circumstances as did Mr..
Truesdale unless in the case of Charles NJ.
Hays, who took the presidency of the Grand
Trunk, but he has handled the property so
satisfactorily TO it's owners that his ira
ducers, many of whom had been connected
with the Lackawanna for many years, are
obliged 10 admit that his work is efecting
radical and much needed reforms. The
company has been obliged TO expend a large
amount in bringing the road and its equip
ment up TO the required standard, and there
is yet much TO do i'm that direction. When
Mr.. Truesdale took control 81 per cent. Of
the motive power consisted of old-style
locomotives carrying only 40 pounds Of
steam, against $50 to 200 pounds now car
ried by the new locomotives. In the year
1900 there was expended $9S6, 200 on ordinary
improvements to the road and charged to
operating expenses and 81, 500. 200 was spent
for new locomotives and cars. ard of this
sum $1S5, 800 was charged 10 operating ex-
penSeS and 1913, 400 to profit and loss.

Excessive storage Charges.

Among the exactions which the American
public puts up with is the storage charge
on baggage left at railway stations. The
storage of baggage is an accommodation
which the roads owe to the travelling pub
lie and for which in turn they should be
adequately paid. but the present actual
storage charge is so out of proportion to
service rendered that IT amounts to a fine
for not removing baggage promptly, and
baggage men seem TO take delight in maxi
ing the charge as oppressive to the traveller
and the imposition as burdensome as posi-
BILE, charging for a day IL the baggage Is
not taken within the allotted time by an
hour or so. This excessive charge is a blot
on the railway operations of the country.
Europe sets a good example, but one which
can hardly be practiced in this country.
In foreign countries baggage can be left
at a cent a day for each piece stored. An
equivalent charge In this country would be
10 cents for the first and . cents for each
succeeding day. The % cents a day charged
by most of the roads in this country is un-
questionably excessive.

WENT DOWN in MAINE
A STORY COMES FROM THE PRO-
BATE DEPARTMENT.
Mrs. Robert Hathaway Appointed Her
Husbands Gunrdian-Loss Of
Their Cases.

The appointment Of a guardian for Robert
Hathaway, in the probate department, yes
terday, recalled the story of the blowing
up of the battleship Maine, in Havana har-
Dor. Hathaway had a son on the battleship
that went down and nothing has ever been
heard of him since. The old gentleman is
now seventy-one years old and almost
helpless. His enfeebled condition at the
time of the wrecking of the Maine made his
mind more susceptible to the influence of
grief, and the loss of his son greatly ag-
gravated his declining mental disability.
Hathaway is a veteran of the civil war
and draws a pension of s51 a quarter. Upon
this governmental allowance he has sup
ported his wife and reared a family Of
three children, none of whom is now liv-
ing, the son who persisted in the Maine
disaster being the last of the three. Several
years ago the son joined the navy and his
parents lost all trace of him. When the
Maine was blown up they made an investi-
cation and found that their son was among
the missing. This was the first informa-
ton they had of his whereabouts since he
left home. Efforts to locate his grave in the
cemetery at Havana proved futile and the
old people have given up hope of ever learn
ing more about their boy.
Mrs. Hathaway is some years younger
than her husband and filed the petition Wit
Judge Walker for the appointment of a
guardian. The judge asked the old gentle
man IL his wife treated him kindly and he
replied: Indeed she does" Judge Walker
considered this sufficient and appointed his
wife guardian, although she has acted in
that capacity for years. The purpose of the
appointment Is a step towards getting the
old veteran an Increase of pension.
During the hearing Mrs. Hathaway told
an interesting story. She said she did not
marry her husband for his pension. They
were married in Missouri before the war.
but their relation was what was termed a
Missouri marriage" The husband en-
listed In the service and after the war,
when they came to Indiana, they decided
TO marry again, this time under the pro-
visions OF the statutes. The wife proudly
stated that this marriage was not for his
pension, as that was before he became q
beneficiary of the government. The rigor OF
a soldiers life had broken down the ply
sique OF the husband and he has never
been a man OF normal capabilities since he
was mustered out OF service.
