Fast Train Service.

One of the topics that received attention
at the recent meeting of master mechanics
at Saratoga, was the cost of running trains
at high speed. Elaborate reports upon this
intricate subject were made by a committee
OF the most competent superintendent of
motive power. The report treated the sub
ject on the mechanical side exclusively, and
made clear a distinction between the cues
ton, what does IL cost TO run trains at high
speed, and the question. does il pay to run
trains at high speed? The question whether
the running of trains at high speed is profit
able it was claimed is purely a commercial
one and far more difficult to solve than the
other. because the extent of earning power,
advertising value and many other consid-
e~rations enter In as well as the question of
the expense of operation. II is well known
that with the railroads generally. outside
of southern New England and the middle
States, passenger traffic Is not a money
maker. RailrOading, speaking generally,
Is understood to be the transportation of
freight. This. indeed, was the original mo-
tive Of building railroads. The historians
say that the earliest promoters of the rail-
way system of England were astonished
and NOT a little Disguised when they found
that their first line, designed for the move
ment of heights. must be burdened with
travel also. As TO fast freight traffic, such
as that gest-bOund between New York,
Chicago and st. Louis. the opinion OF the
master mechanics was that IL had been
much overdone and that II opened i prom
sing field of investigation.

Ticket Scnlpers Watched.

Buffalo Courier.
Although there are more than half a
hundred ticket s~calpers doing business in
Buffalo at the present time, they are hav-
ing a rather hard time of 1t, with the rail-
the stations. In barber Shops. stores, sa-
looms and other business places. desk room
has been secured by the energetic scalper
and with his usual assertiveness and bust
ness activity he has so overshadowed, by
the display of poster type, the original
character of the place, that only the old.
steady customer or the man in search of a
cheap ticket, thinks of entering.
At the stations the scalpers claim, de-
tectives are so active that when an incom-
ing passenger registers his excursion ticket
at the joint agency. the special man takes
his description and the number of his
ticket. When that ticket is again presented
at the station to the gate man. If offered
spotted at least two times out OF five and
marked mot valid" The result is that the
passenger is held up, forced to look up the
broker from whom he received the return
check, secure the return of his money and
purchase a regular ticket. The fact that
this is so, is discouraging the business and
there are fewer applicants at the scalper's
offices than earlier in the game. 1t was an
nounced Saturday that the Lake Shore road
had appointed a detective TO each two cars
falo to catch ticket brokers who have been
buying up the train on tickets, originally
at l cent al mile.
The brokers have busted themselves with
the cheap rate transportation which has
been issued on account OF the
can exposition, and in order to protect it
self the Lake Shore has employed detec-
tiyes as assistants to the conductors.

Ebert E A NAN
Therefore Ellis Glenn, the Woman,
May BE Freed-PhOtogrnph Found.

PARKERSBURG. w. Va. July 2l.-The
mystery known as Ellis Glenn seems now
to he in a fair way TO be cleared ~. To-
day counse for the defense received from
Marietta a letter containing a photograph
of Ebert Glenn. taken in that city in 1896.
with a sworn statement that the picture
was taken there and that Ebert Glenn was
a man. A comparison of the two photo
graphs shows the greatest difference in the
two people and strengthens the statement
made a few days ago that Ebert Glenn
was here in the courtroom and could be
produced at any time. The photograph
shows a broad shouldered. black-haired
black-eysd man, with a long neck and
large Adams apple" Fills hair is course
and hangs over his forehead on one side.
He has a long nose and large ears and
does not resemble the defendant in the
least. He wore a checked suit, white shirt
and low lay-dovn collar at that time. The
production of the picture has created quite
q sensation here and the friends of the
defendant are jubiiant.
