BELIEVED TO BE ASSURED.
Given Project of Or
ganizinS Real Estate Exchange.

The committee appointed at "a recent
meeting of real estate brokers to report a
plan Of organization to be formed of those
interested in the various phases of this
business is endeavoring to ascertain to
what extent such an organization will re-
ceive the cooperation of the men engaged
in that line AS far as the members of the
committee are enabled to do, with the time
at their disposal, they are personally CIR
culating a paper for signatures. In this
and In other ways they are endeavoring to
reach all licensed real estate brokers, trust
companies, banks and bankers engaged in
the handling and management of real
estate, or lending and investing money on
real estate located in the District of Co.
lumbia, as individuals, firms and corpora
tions.
AS there is to be a meeting Wednesday
night at s o'clock at the Hotel Barton, on
18th street near H street, for the purpose
of hearing report from the committee. the
lack of time as we'll as the difficulty of
seeing every one, all concerned being busy
men. will probably render it impossible to
reach all who are included in the above
enumeration. 1t is the purpose, however,
that the cooperation of all shall be in
vited, and if omissions are made, they will
be entirely que to the causes mentioned
AS stated it is proposed to form a real
estate exchange, which shall include auc-
tioneers as well as brokers and those who
lend money, and the object of the organiza-
ton. as set forth in the paper which is
being circulated, Is the establishment of
uniform. Just, equitable and minimum rates
of commission to be charged on the sale OF
real estate, placing of loans and the col
lection Of rents within the District, and to
establish just and reasonable rules and
regulations governing the conduct Of the
several branches of business relating to the
sale and management of real estate and
the loaning of money.
This project has received such cordial
support, not only from individuals, but from
trust companies and others, that 1t is be-
lieved a sufficient number will have ex
pressed their purpose to join the proposed
exchange to- warrant steps being taken to
proceed with the organization at the meet
ing Wednesday evening.

MERCURY TAKES A DROP
WASHINGTON HAS THE FIRST Sc
WE'RE TOUCH OF WINTER.
Heavy Wraps iN Evidence-Prevalence
of Severe Colds Through
out the City.

Shivering Washington was brought face
to face today with the fact that the city
Is in the throes Of the first cold wave Of
the winter. The mercury in the tube had
performed acrobatic stunts during the night
in an almost successful attempt to reach
the bottom, and the thermometer showed
itself at IA degrees above zero early this
morning as the final result Of its perambula-
tions.
Blue noses and heavy furs were much in
evidence on the streets as result Of the
sudden drop in the temperature.
The weather man was kept busy answer
ing questions as to the cause and probable
duration Of the Geld wave. Regarding the
temperatures s unseemly behavior he had the
same reply for all:
THE cold weather Is general throughout
the country, and the prospect Is that the
temperature will not deviate from its pres
ent register until Wednesday,"
The forecaster states that the strong
northwesterly winds, so persistent all of
yesterday. will diminish during the day and
tomorrow will be clear and cold
The temperature dropped in many places
throughout the country yesterday from 40
to 80 degrees, and the sudden assault of
Jack Frost had a marked effect upon the
attendance at the various churches. Par
ticularly was this true of the night ser
vices, where slim congregations were the
rule.
The present cold wave had its origin in the
west, and was the direct result Of Saturdays
storm, which left havoc in it's path in many
parts of the country. Adyices received tell
of severe floods in central New York and
eastern Pennsylvania. These sections suf
fered the worst from the deluge of rain and
high winds.
In many places rivers rose swiftly, car
rying before them houses and railroad
bridges. and many railroad wrecks. causing
severe loss of life, were the result of the
storm.
The prevalence of severe colds Is giving
the physicians some concern. In the first
stages the cold is of the ordinary type, but
in the opinion of some physicians it is akin
to influenza, and some doctors regard it as
contagious. Prompt treatment is advised in
all cases. Already the hospitals are be-
ginning to feel the effects of the sudden
rise in temperature, having an increased
number of patients. Some are suffering
from influenza symptoms

Jan KubeIik's yioIins.

Young Jan Kubelik brought to these
shores a supply Of fiddles which ought to
last him through this season and several
others. No virtuoso before him ever came
with so many. He has three Of great
value.
One is a Joseph Guarnerius, given to him
by Friedrich Brosche; the second is violin
by the same maker, for which he paid the
Crown Prince Kranczowicz In Budapest
81 600. and the third is splendid specimen
of the work Of Antonio Stradivarius and
was given to him after his first season in
London by the family Of Walter Palmer,
jr., the millionaire member of parliament.
These are the most valuable Of the Kul e.
lik violins, and he was fortunate to have
received them as gifts, but he has one that
he values more than any of the other
three. This is not the work Of famous
maker and probably it would not bring
more than a few dollars If it were offered
in the markets, unless Kubelik admirer
knew its history. 1t Is a rude affair." small
and without grace or beauty. But 1t was
made for kubelik when he was a boy by
his father, who could not afford to buy him
one. And 1t Is the instrument on which he
took his first lessons.

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.
RAILROADS CANNOT LONG BE
HELD BY MONOPOLISTS
Some Figures from the Annual Report
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion-Tbe Corporations Are Overcapi-
taIized on AN Average of 500 Per Cent

The preliminary report on the in
States for the year ended June 80, 1900,
prepared by the statistician to the in
terstate commerce commission, con-
tains returns of operating railway
companies representing 19O,406 miles
of line. The gross earnings of the
railways included in this report were
81 ,4S0, 673,054, or $7776 per mile of
line. OF these earnings 1896, 1850, 76O
were classed as passenger earnings,
and $1,04S, 26S,S75 as freight earnings.
The gross earnings shown in the final
report for the preceding year were
s1,313, 6lO,11S. Openting expenses for
the first fiscal year aggregate $685.
S14,412, or $5O25 per mile of line.
The net earnings of the roads en-
braced in this advance report were
$523, S5S,912 for 1900, or $73,1lO,74
more than they were for 1899.
Income from investments and other
sources amounting to S6O,675,7OO were
received so that the total income
was 1884, 534 ,612.-Press Dispatch.
The railroads of this country are
over-capitalized 800 per cent Divi-
dends are paid on three times the
sum for which the roads could be re-
placed. and yet they earn in net profits
for very few men nearly $500 ,CCJ,OO0
quite enough money to pay the entire
cost of this government economically
administered. The railroad is as much
public utility as the dirt road and
there are just as many reasons why
one should be owned by the state as
the other.
The state should own the railroads,
but in fact the railroads own the
state. Our government is dominated
by the railroads-they get just such
legislation as they want-they send
their servants to congress and the
state legislatures and every law is
passed by the hired men of these cor
porations.
Suppose, now, these roads were
owned by the people, as they are in
most civilized countries, what would
be the result? If rates were kept at
the present level the railroads would
pay the entire costs Of the govern
ment and all taxes could be abolished
but rates would be much reduced and
even then there would be a handsome
surplus to go into the state treasury
wages could be raised, hours could be
reduced and the products of the west
and east, the north and south, could
be exchanged at half the present
price of transportation and the Ne
braska farmer could go down to Mas
sachusetts to see his mother-in-law
without mortgaging the farm to pay
the bill.
The same relative saving could be
made in telegraphs. express and in all
the public utilities in towns and cities
and the community would get rich on
what it now gives away to millionaire
monopolists.
These are plain and simple facts
which have been fully demonstrated
In many countries, and We can apply
them to our home government as
room as the American voters get sense
enough.

the guests vying with each other in de-

the health of the hostess with high

each of the two youths put one foot

idea was voted picturesque. but undig-
