THE RAILROAD CONFERENCE
Lower Freight Rates Promised for
Nevada.

The following special dispatch was
published in the Carson appeal Sum
day morning:
San Francisco, March %. - There
was meeting to-day at the parlors of
the Grand Hotel, between the special
committee appointed by the legislature
and President Hayes, of the Southern
Pacific. Chairman Prudential first adj
dressed Mr.. Hayes, and laid down the
principal grievances Nevada had suf-
fered. Among them was the hauling
of freight past Reno and the return
charge, which placed Nevada at such a
disadvantage. The general high
charges on freight and fares, etc.
President Hayes received the COM
mittee with the greatest cordiality and
assured them that the road had for
some time contemplated giving Ne
vada a substantial reduction in fares
and freights, and that he was glad to
receive the committee and talk over
matters from a business standpoint.
All the members of the committee
spoke and there was general free
conference for two hours. The matter
of keeping political agent, was also
discussed, and Mr.. Hayes assured the
committee that the keeping of political
agents in Nevada, or any other State,
was thing of the part.
The road proposed to treat the peo-
pie of Nevada so fairly that there was
no need of any political agent on the
part of the road and he did not appre-
bend that the people would treat the
road in any other way but with fair
ness. The road wanted all the Nevada
business it could get and hoped to be
able to build up the State. 1t was pre-
pared to pay it's fair share of the bur-
dens of government and the road
would be run on business basis as
near as the present management knew
how to run it.
The grievances would all be taken
under consideration by the president
of the road. There was the utmost
cordiality displayed, and the COM
mittee went away from the meeting
we'll pleased with the new president.
The committee will make its report
to the governor.

A Carson Lady's Request.

Mrs. Ann Hickey, highly respected
lady of Carson, has written the follow
ing, which explains itself:
To the Trib Company:
Gentlemen sprained my foot and
ankle very severely, turning the foot
clear over. Itried a number of appli-
cations which usually relieve sprains
but without effect. At the end of three
days the swelling was greater than
ever, the pain intolerable, and / could
not walk. The whole foot was double
its natural size and black in color.
then tried .Trib. In few days was
entirely well, and to-day that ankle is
better and stronger than the other.
The Trib seems to have renewed the
life of the whole limb. Use my name
in recommending Trib. Keep on ad-
vertising until all the world has knowl-
edge of the great value, the great
this new remedy.
ANN RICKEY.
Mrs. Rickey's testimony is confirmed
by that of hundred others in and
about this city.-Carson News.

MAIL CONTRACTS.
Proposals Will Shortly be Asked tor
on all Routes.

In September next general adver-
tisement will be issued inviting pro-
poeals for carrying the mails on all
star routes in this State for a term of
four years, beginning July u, 1902
Notice is given early by the Postal De-
partment that all persons who may
contemplate bidding on any of these
contracts may have ample time in
which to inform themselves regarding
the service to be rendered, and in this
way be prepared to submit bids in
diligently. having in view the condi-
tions of the country to be served, and
the roadways over which the mails
must be carried. There is disposition
on the part of the Postoffice Depart
ment to discourage the practice of al
lowing non-residents to secure con-
tracts throu Oh sections of country with
which they are not familiar, and to
favor, SO far as possible, bidders who
reside on the several lines. p.
1t should be taken into consideration
that the Department is willing to pay
just and reasonable compensation for
the services desired, and the people
for whose benefit these lines were es-
tablished are justified in demanding
good and efficient service. Prospec-
tive bidders should remember also that
the Department will uphold the people
in demanding that the terms of con-
tracts shall be honestly complied with,
and it may be depended upon that no
slip-shod service will be tolerated IN
der the new contracts.
Postmasters are instructed to notify
all persons residing on or near any
mail route that under the new suburb
an free delivery plan, now in force,
they will be entitled to have their
mails delivered free of charge by
simply placing proper box conven-
lent to the road, and mail carriers will
be instructed not only to deliver mail
matter at such places when properly
addressed, but to gather such letters
and other mail matter as may be de-
posted there for transmission. All
persons authorized to carry mail must
be competent to handle such mail mat
ter in an intelligent manner, and will
be held responsible for its proper de-
livery.
This innovation is meeting with sue
cess in the districts where it has been
tried further East, and no doubt it will
be appreciated by the people of Ne
vada who are remote from established
postoffices.

DEEDS EXECUTED.
Birmingham Realty Company Trans
fers School Lots to City.

The Birmingham Realty Company
yesterday executed the deed to the
lots on which the city will erect two
new school buildings. One of the lots
Is in the vicinity of Behren's Park
and the other on Cottage Hill. The
Realty Company donated these lots to
the city for school purposes, as has
heretofore been stated III The Age
Herald.
Several years ago the Elyton Com
pany, the predecessor of the Birming-
ham Realty Company, obtained judg-
ment against the city for $4,000, but
this judgment had never been salts
fed. Last year when the City Council
decided to provide three additional
schools for the children of the city
the Realty Company offered to donate
the sites for two of them il the city
would pay off the old claim against it
growing out of this Judgment. The
Council accepted the offer, and at the
meeting last week authorized the
Mayor to pay over the amount speci-
fed whenever perfect titles to the
property were furnished by the Realty
Company.
Yesterday President Fulenwider of
the Realty Company signed the deeds
to the lots and turned them over to the
Mayor The money will probably be
paid this week.

FRANK MILLER'S
ENDLESS CHAIN
Letters Are Still Coming in
Bringing Him a Small
Sum Daily.

The "endless chain" started by Frank
Miller, who is in Jail under sentence of
death for killing Police officer Adams
has not yet ended although it has grown
to no great proportions. Deputy Sheriff
stratford, who is in charge of all of Mil
ler's mail, stated yesterday afternoon that
six letters had been received during the
day for Miller, containing a total of 81.
Most of the money has come from the
north One letter received by him from a
lady in New York stated she had started
out to raise $50 for him, and assured him
that she would have the money in a few
days Other letters contained expressions
of sympathy and assurances of help
One letter received BY Miller was from
Haleyvlle, Ala, stating that a petition
had been circulated there in his behalf.
and seventeen people had signed it, and
contributed 10 cents each, which amount
was sent in the letter.
Miller feels hopeful of the success of his
plan, and is much gratified at the express
sions of sympathy he is receiving.

DISSOLUTION SALE.
j. Blach G. Sons Forced To Convert
Stock into Cash.

The withdrawal of Mr.. Charles Blach
from the firm of j. Blach Sons has
caused some commotion in trade circles
by reason of the fact that such changes
mean reorganization and reorganization
means a wiping out as 1t were of old ac-
counts and new beginning.
I Mr.. Charles Biachs retirement from the
firm is due to his III health, having been
urged by bis physician to take trip
abroad. This announcement came as t,
surprise to himself as well as the other
members of the firm and after large
stock of spring goods had been purchased,
which somewhat complicated the situa-
ton A conference was held, at which
a proposition was made and accepted.
and Mr.. Charles Blach's interest was
bought out by his brothers. who in Or
der to reorganize the business have in
augurated a dissolution sale to convert
their stock into cash, and are offering
goods at greatly reduced prices.
The business will be continued at both
Birmingham and Nashville by Messrs,
Max. simon. Colman and Sam Blach.
under the firm name of j. Bach & Sons,
which is synonymous of fair and square
dealing.
The firm is one of the best known in
the south and the reliable methods that
have hitherto marked its management
will be continued and improved

1T CAME BACK.
The Doctors Wife Found Her Com
plexion Again.

Coffee is no respector of persons when
1t ZONES to the poisonous effects there
Of A prominent physicians wife of
Monticello, Ind, says that coffee treated
her very badly. indeed giving her seri-
Gus and painful stomach trouble, and a
wretched, muddy complexion
Her husband Is a physician of the reg
ular school and opposed to both tea and
coffee. so he induced her to leave them
off and take on Postum Food Coffee.
The stomach trouble disappeared almost
like magic, and gradually her complex
ion cleared up; now she is in excellent
condition Throughout.
There are thousands of highly organ
ICED people who are made sick In va
rIety of different ways by the use of cof-
fee and most Of these people do not sus-
pect the cause of their trouble. They
think that others can drink coffee and are
WELT and they can, but about one person
out of every three is more or less poison
ed by coffee, and this can be proved by
leaving off coffee and taking Postum
Food Coffee. In nearly every case the
disorder will be greatly relieved or en-
tirely disappear. 1t is easy enough to
make trial and see whether coffee is a
poison to YOU or not.
The name OF the Doctors wife can be
given upon application to the Postum
Cereal Co, Ltd, at Battle Creek, Mich.
