senger and ticket agents special tram
between Toronto and Montreal an In.
teresting feat was performed in wire

MoGill university. They succeeded in
establishing wireless communication
between the train, which was running
at the rate of sixty miles per hour, and
st. Dominick station. This is the first
time, il Is said. that wireless telegra-
ply has ever been attempted from a
fast moving train and the experiment
was a complete success Communica'

STOREY AT ST. LOUIS.
Attends Meeting to Discuss Subject OF
Track BaIlastinq.

w b. Storey, chief engineer OF the
Santa Fe. has recently been in st.
Louis. whore he attended the meeting
of the committee on ballasting of the
engineering and maintenance OF way
association Those present were the
chairman, Vice Chairman Molltor, S.
B. Fisher and W. u. Storey, Jr The
subject as to What Constitutes Bal
lasted Track was discussed and the
following definition drafted: ballast
ed track Is track held In line with the
surface by selected material placed
above the roadbed in which cross.ties
are imbedded. The object of such ma
terial being to obtain a solid and uni
form bearing for the cross-ties 20 dis
tribute the applied load and to provide
suitable drainage The question as
to what material could be used for
ballast was also discussed, and II was
agreed that the materials named in
the last annual report. namely. broken
stone, gravel, burnt clay, partially dis
integrated rock, chats and cinders
could be used. A rough draft was form.
ulated for specifications for stone. IL
was decided that no specifications
could be drawn up for gravel, as in
each case any particular deposit would
have to be passed upon as to whether
it was of practicable value. The ques
ton of cinder ballast was discussed
and II was found that the experience
of the members present has been that
they have had very poor success with
engine cinders. The question arises
as to whether the increased whee
loading has placed too great burden
on cinders. 1t was the desire of the
members of the committee present
that each meinber formulate specifica
tons Cor each of the various kinds o.
ballast promptly and send to the chair
man.

THE MlDTS.
A Lac Vegas Family Who vamoosed
Their Home.

The railroad boys who have been
rooming at the Santa Fe house seem
to be without proprietress. Mrs.
Schmidt. who Is the wife Of the fellow
who went crazy here few months ago
and shot up the town. together with
her daughter, yamoosed Sunday. or.
at least, so 1t seems. The daughters
said they were going to Albuquerq p,
when seen Sunday at the station. but
the mother was. apparently, no where
to be seen.
II has since developed that the fe-
male who gave the name OF Miss En-
ma Blake to the reporter. was no other
than the mother in disguise. wearing
goggles and disguised otherwise. The
reporter thought he recognized her
but the name and disguise temporarily
misled him. 1t seems that they have
jumped the town, at least so the boys
who have been boarding at the hotel
think. Some one ought to ask their
creditors.

FAIR TO FERGUSON.

The republican press Of this terri.
tory has seen unusually kind to Mr..
FERGUSON. II is well known that he
has no possible chance of election and
on that account no serious campaign
has been waged against the gentle
man. Last night he complained that
Ae had no audience at Colombo hall on
account of the unfairnecs of the two
daily newspapers OF the city toward
him The dailies of this city have
shown every possible courtesy to Mr..
Percussion. Full publicity has been
given to all b., movements A double
head free notice Of his meeting was
published in yesterdays Citizen. The
democratic nominee started into his
campaign with n flourish OF charges.
He was called down by the governor
and territorial land board. His paper
organ at Las Vegas asserted that he
was the champion and friend of the
laborlng man. and The Citizen mildly
corrected that paper by pointing to
the fact that Mr.. FERGUSON was the
extra prosecuting attorney against the
railroad strikers in 1894. He signed
the legal papers causing the arrest oil
one Wagg. who proved to be the most
contemplate man who ever went 70
| Jail in a good cause. In the campaign
OF 1896 Mr.. FERGUSON used him by
getting him reinstated on the Atlantic
| e. Pacific road, Wagg agreeing to sc
over the territory in Mr.. FERGUSON
interest. At that time Judge Collier
practically owned the Atlantic 4 Pa
cific road, the line being in the hands
C.. a receiver. and the Judge and his
| friends rode in private cars. The cour,
\ reinstated Wagg on the road providing
that he would vote and work for Fer
gusson This Wagg did to the yer,
best of his feeble ability. Yes, indeed
the press OF this city have treated Mr.
FERGUSON with unusual fairness. 4
Las Vegas paper recently ASSERTED
that ne was pledged to help that cit!
