IT STARTLES ENGLAND
The Times Prints Figures to Show
the Insolvency of the English
Railroads.
.SetD York S,I,, Special Sesvtoe

London, Sept. 4.-The Times has taken
up the question Of American and British
railway finance and it handles the situa
ton in a manner to startle it's readers.
1t publishes article by writer whom
it VOuches for as man who began his
railway career in England and who has
since attained an important position in
the United States. The writer practically
prOclaims the insolvency Of the English
lines. He selects for a comparison of &C
counts the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western with the Northeastern Railway Of
England and similar lines. He declares
that If the latter charged to revenue all
that the Lackawanna company does the
Northeastern's dividend, which Is 6 per
cent, would be absolutely wiped out.
The Times editorially handles the
writer's figures. 1t considers that he has
proved his case and that broadly speak
ing the English railways have no reserve.
They maintain their property, but don't
supplement and don't improve out of their
revenues. The Times revelations are GER
tain to provoke retaliat ton. Mr.. Glib,
manager Of the Northeastern railway, is
regarded as being among the ablest bust
ness men in England. He was selected to
serve by the government the commit
tee to consider reforms Of the war office,
and was also recently delegated to visit
the United States to compare British and
American railroad methods.

THE STEAMSHIP COMBINE
Conferences of Directors in New
York This Month.

New York, Sept. At Is quite evident
that definite action as to- the practical
operation of the Morgan trans Atlantic
steamship combina ton is soon to be de-
cided upon, says the Journal of Commerce.
conferences Of directors of the various
lines have been arranged to take place
In this city during the latter part Of the
month. 1t is understood the conferences
are to have nothing whatever to do with
the financial end Of the transaction; they
are merely to consider the best form
Of economics that can be put into opera =
ton. and it Is also understood that no
economies-at any rate, no radical ones
involving changes in existing clerical ar
rangements-will be put into operation
until Dec. 81, when the purchase money
will be passed for the White Star and the
Dominion lines. The Leyland line is al
ready the property Of Mr.. Morgan, and the
transfer of the American, Red Star and
Atlantic Transport lines does not involve
the transfer of cash on the scale Of the
British lines.
w. J. Pierrie, a director Of the White
Star line. will it is understood, be the
head of the combination abroad.
number Of European directors and
officials Of the lines interested are now
on their way across the Atlantic to at
tend the coming conference.

A JEAN YALJEANa CASE
Infinite Meanness of a New York.
Street Car Corpor- +. e
alton.

New York, Sept. Am expression of
sincere gratitude from a trolley car con-
ductor to a passenger caused the arrest
of John B. Hendrickson, who had served
short term In prison, had established a
home for his wife and children, and, &C
cording to his fellow employees, was try
ing hard to better his condition In life.
There is a law in force in New York
making the person guilty Of misdemeanor
who obtains employment through false
statement to name, residence, previous
employment, qualification, etc. John
Hendrickson had been convicted Of secur-
ing business mans signature to bogus
petition and used it to draw funds from
a savings bank
Judge Hurd took pity on the prisoner
and sentenced him to eighteen months at
Sing Sing, only. At the expiration of the
sentence HendricksOn determined to- re-
deem himself, applied for and secured a
position as trolley car conductor, under
the name Of Cox. His wife and two
babies were established in neat home
and their happiness was complete.
Recently Judge Hurd, who, since the
hearing of Hendrickson's case, had re-
tired from the bench, boarded the car In
charge of Cox. The conductor spoke to
his passenger, recalling the case and
thanked Mr.. Hurd for his leniency.
The eX-judge, In conversation with a
friend later, mentioned the case. Others
took up the story and finally it reached
the railroad officials. Cox was at once
dismissed and arrested.

AN EXTRA SESSION
How Gov. Stone Proposes to Go
About Settling the Anthra-
cite Strike.
BE Proposes to Have the Legislature
Pass a Compulsory Arbi-
tration Law.

Plttsburg, Sept. Am extra session Of
the legislature would cost the state less
money than 1t is costing to maintain the
militia in the anthracite region to prevent
and suppress riots"
In these words Governor w. A. Stone
Indicated to a few of his friends during his
visit here his purpose to call an extra
session Of the Pennsylvania legislature
and try to end the anthracite strike.
The plan he proposes is a compulsory
arbitra ton law. Under a carefully
thought-out scheme which he has pre-
pared, a committee appointed under his
proposed law would arbitrate the
present strike, whether the operators or
miners were willing or not Ample pro-
vision will be made to compel both sides
to accept the award. Governor Stone Is
confirmed in his belief that his proposed
compulsory arbitration law would stand
the most severe tests in the courts. The
general principle is that the public rights
are greater than any law. The courts
have repeatedly upheld this principle.
