TO CURTAIL PASSES
WESTERN ROADS WILL DO AWAY
WITH MANY .sBoNDs-
MEN,
SYSTEM HAS BEEN ABUSED
Action of the Rio Grande in En-
pIoying Girls az Walters Not
Likely to BE EmuIated
by Other Roads.

1t is said to be quite likely that West
ern roads will materially curtail the
passes heretofore given to big shippers
I'm exchange for freight traffic. At "a
meeting of the executive officers Of the
leading roads held in Chicago the mat
ter was discussed, and It was the gen
eral opinion that at least 70 per cent of
these passes should be revoked.
The proposition is to discontinue the is
suance of passes to boHdsmen of rail-
roads. 1T appears that the bulk OF tram
sportation now given to shippers is is
sued under the head of transportation to
official bondsmen, and the evil has under
this cloak grown to an alarming extent.
Whenever a general manager or q traf-
fic official desires to give big shipper a
free ride for himself and his family over
the line. it is only necessary to have him
appointed an official bondsman for the
road and the way is then clear.
Ever since the pass agreement went
into effect among roads, it has containeh
an agreement against issuing free
transportation to shippers, the favor be-
ing viewed in the light of an inducement
for the routing Of traffic. Like Il great
many other good ruIes, the general man
ayers soon found a way to circun1vent it.
1t is necessary In the course OF a year
for every railway system to give a great
many bonds in lawsuits and for other
purposes. To take care of this contln-
gency all railroads have ofticial-bondsmen
in almost every county through which
they run.
1t is the duty Of these bondsnlen 70 take
care of all the bonds the railroad has to
give in their respective counties. In the
pass agreement there is nothing against
issuing free transportation &c the bonds
men, and accordingly many big systems
now have spurious bondsmen Tor nearly
every mile of the road. In fact, the Of
fetal bondsmen constitute the most nu
merous class of employees railroads now
have
The proposition now before the execu-
tive officials is to limit the limb n of
official bondsmen of each ROAD to one
in every county through which the road
runs.
This new rule will probably go into eff
feet on January !.
by cutting off IS per cent OF the bonds
mems passes much will be done toward
better maintenance of rates." said one
of the managers who attended the meet,
ing at is one of the worst features of
the transportation question. These bonds
men are counted by the hundreds along
every railroad. 1t has been suggested
that instead OF using shippers or others
as bondsmen the railways turn the bust
ness over to guaranty comban:es
wherever possible"

which costs the company 100000 annually.
The question of fuel is becoming most
serious one with all the railroads, and

other Chicago roads. fireman is now

is remarkable for its helplessness 1t
needs men to deal with in directing it on
almost every point that arises, even to
the most trivial. Some of these young
women may surprise us in their work as

GIRLS AS WATERS.
Railroad Officials Do Not Think Gus
tom VIII BECOME Common.

The action of the Denver e. Rio Grande
road in announcing that girls will be
employed as walters on the dining cars
and in the cafe sections of the buffet
cars, while being watched with interest
by railroad men, is not likely to become
p prevailing railroad custom. The idea
is not a new one, but has been tried
before, and many railroads have iuvesti-
gated and considered the proposition,
but it has not generally met with favor
General Passenger Agent Miller, of the

Il don't think women walters In din

they do not serve just as well as man,
