Orient Probably Has Made Deal
With Gould Interests.

w. c. Edwards. who is looking after
Orient interests in Oklahoma, has been
interviewed in Wichita as follows:
What about the statement made by
them that there is a prospect of run
ming trains into Wichita over the Mis-
souri, Pacific traclzs?" asked the re-
porter
1T is true replied Mr.. Edwards,
that such arrangements are being
talked of, and I think it probable that
we will be running trains into this city
over the Missouri Pacific by the first
of February"
Railroad men say that the Orient rail-
road has made close traffic alliance
with the Missouri Pacific railroad The
contract is said to be for long term of
years, and covers all parts of the sys-
TENS Involved.
The alliance Will give to Mr.. Sti1well
and his associates an outlet to the east
which could scarcely be improved upon.
An alliance with the Missouri Pacific
naturally tends to friendly relations
with all Of the lines of the Gould system,
which would give Mr.. Stilwen highly de-
sirable connections. by way of the Wa
bash railroad, to the eastern markets.
Mr.. Gould. who is said to have sig
nified hih personal approval of the all1-
ance, lately expressed himself concern
ing the increasing popularity of the
southern lines to the coast In this con-
nection the Missouri Pacific agreement
with the Orient would give the Gould
lines an advantage in the competition
for coast business as well as an addi-
tioral outlet in the race for the traffic

A FASHIONABLE BOOK.
California Limited Advertisement Is
Strictly Up-to-Date.

The Santa FEES California Limited
book, which has been in preparation for
some time, is now being distributed by
the Santa F'e passenger department. The
book is superior to any former bit of
advertising of similar nature.
In every way the book is highly sty-
fish. The cover is a soft tint of grayish
brown. Illuminated with yellow and red.
The cover decorations are plain, clear
cut and artistic The typographical
style of the book is decidedly modern.
The text is in italics with red and black
initial letters. If any criticism is to be
made on the book. it would be on the
illustrations which are combina ton
of pen and ink work and red color, laid
on in heavy blotches in poster style. The
pictures may touch a popular fashion,
but they are not artistic The illustra-
tons are by H f. Townsend. The book
is printed on heavy cream wove paper,
with rough edges.
The context of the book is new and
tells in entertaining manner the advant-
ages of the California Limited as a
route to the midwinter resorts of the far
west.

VADING CANADA.
American Railway Financiers Taking
Everything in Sight.

NeSotiations are under way between
officials of the Grand Trunk railway
and the owners of the Canadian North
ern for the purchase of the latter COM
pany's lines. The Canadian Northern
system embraces 1,150 miles of railroad
in the Canadian northwest, reaching
from Port Arthur, on the shore of Lake
Superior, to Erwood, near the Great
Saskatchewan river. a distance of over
800 miles. There are branches and con-
Meeting lines which go to make up the
total mileage given above. The road
has contracts for use of the Northern
Pacific tracks over a portion of the
Northwest territory and provision is
made for connection with lake ports
further south than Port Arthur
The avowed intention of the Grand
Trunk, in getting control of the Cana
dian Northern, is to make these lines a
part of a proposed grand transcontf-
mental system which will be composed
of over 5000 miles of track. with termi-
nails on the Pacific as well as on the At
1antic To complete this system some
building will be necessary and the
Grand Trunk is in position to push this
rapidly.
The entrance of the Grand Trunk into
the northwest, with its own lines to the
Pacific coast. will make sharp COMPETE
ton for the Canadian Pacific. The rap
id development of the western portion
of this territory and the avidity with
which the Americans have seized upon
the opening presented by cheap lands
and rich mining properties have reused
the railroad people, and in a measure
the Canadian government, to the neces-
Slty for keeping control of the north
west 1t is said that for political rea-
sons the Canadian government is ready
to give every encoura cement to the con-
struction of more roads, which will af-
ford easy and quick access to the new
country.

of it will come out of their own pocket.
If on company business, they will be
entitled TO reimbursement
At the same time the lordly politicians
will be able to keep their pockets lined
with free transportation for their per-
sona1 use and for their friends who are
close to them. or individuals to whom
they become obligated. In reaffirming
the agreement for another year, the
presidents action will serve to give
railroad officials of varying degrees of
authority very rude jolt. and there
will be growing and gnashing of teeth
in impotent indignation.
That it should have been deemed wise
to renew the agreement that has been so
wantOnly evaded in spirit and letter,
passes comprehension in the light of
the fact that some of those who were
its most earnest sponsors a year ago
have become disguised with its opera
ton. and had declared they would not
support its re-enactment In fact, it is
well known that their clerical stats have
been busily engaged in the preparation
of pass lists preliminary to the issuance
of ANIMALS and requesting a reciprocal
courtsey. All this work has been wasted
as well as many reams of paper, hours
of industrious labor and much printed
matter.

Wants Proposed Santa Fe Hospital
Located There.

San Bernardino, Cal, Nov. 22.-Em-
ployes of the Santa Fe are making an
effort to have the new company hospi-
tai, which it is proposed to build in
Los Angeles, located at this place. Their
argument in favor of the change is a
strong one and it is thought that the
officials when apprised of the feelings
of the men will arrange to have the
building erected here instead of Los
Angeles. A petition was in circulation
among the employees today and was be-
ing generally signed. 1t gives u rea-
sons why the hospital should be built
here and will contain the signatures of
about 1,500 men who request the changes.
The Santa Fe hospital service is main

small sum each month, for this rea-
son as well as others their wishes in
the matter will probably be considered
by the officials. Only a small number
of men are employed at Los Angeles in
comparison with the force in this city
and their wishes in the matter must
necessarily be a secondary considera-
ton.

NINE CASES of CONSUMPTION out Of

ten occur in this way:
A person catches a cold The cold is
not properly cured, and they quickly
catch another one. This cold is dilly-
dallied with by no treatment. or some
treatment that is Intellectual. and the
cold continues.
Then they catch another cold and be-
gin to cough. Then they take cough
syrups, but they do no good.
By and by they get tired of taking
medicine, and give UP in despair.
Their cold continues, and their cough
grows worse. Then they apply to a doc
tor, only to discover that they are in the
first stages of consumption.
Miss Lila, of Illinois, started out ex-
actly in this way. Fortunately, she took
course of Peruna before it was too
late. She had caught several colds, then
a cough developed She took all sorts of
cough medicines until, she puts it.
Il sickened at the sight of them In
four weeks Peruna had cured her of her
catarrh, and her system was entirely
rid of it.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not a day. and probably not an
hour, passes but some one has a similar
experience with Peruna.
The first step toward consumption is
catching cold. The next step is failure
to cure it promptly. The third step is
the development of catarrh. which
gradually becomes chronic. The fourth
step, the catarrh begins to spread from

Bradstreet's says:
Favorable conditions still govern the
trade situation. The mild. open fall
weather is complained of as restricting
the movement of winter goods at retail
and delaying collections a t a few points,
but it is not to be forgotten that pres
ent temperatures favor the continued
growth of the cotton crop and a larger
yield than heretofore expected, while
it is enabling the railroads to make 4
far better fight against the prevailing
freight congestion Shan was earlier
deemed possible. Export trade returns

owing to high prices, have gone abroad
in smaller volume than expected but
there is evidently a larger movement of
manufactured goods.
The railroad situation is certainly a
remarkable one. The complaint is no
longer one of car shortage, of lack of mo-
tive power. or even of insufficient yard
facilities. The fact is becoming appreci-
ated that the business of the country Of
fered to the railroads is so large that new
measures must be devised to meet new
conditions.
THE strength of the raw material has
been of benefit to the cotton goods mar
ket, which, however. remains quiet. The
wooden goods situation is without special
feature. Leather and hides have ruled
steady in price, and manufacturers of
shoes report good orders for the season.
Among the features brought out in
kilograms to Bradstreet's this week is the
increased activity noted by jobbers ii
holiday goods especially the better grade
of iewelry and fancy products.
Fancy groceries are also moving more
freely.
THE iron trade situation is rather
stronger than a week ago. Pig iron prices
immediate delivery, are slightly higher.
The fuel scarcity still dominates the sit
uation and prevents high production ap-
preaching more nearly to a parity with
consumption. Western buying of pig iron
has not been notably active. but a sharp
demand is observed at the east. Bessem er
pig iron is 80 cents higher at Pittsburg
and at Philadelphia Western steel rail
mills are reported to have sold practically
their entire 1903 production. Plate and
structural men also heavily sold
ahead, and the latter continues quite ac-
tive, despite the advanced stage of the
season. Good sized transactions in steel
billets are reported at Pittsburg. There
is little new to report among the finished
g.oducts. Heavy hardware is reported
quieter at western markets, but light
hardware is active"
