a loudly advertised, secret patent medi-

wholesome. perfectly harmless vegetable
essences, fruit salts. pure pepsin and bis

These remedies are combined in Iozenge

black walters, it is charged, that has
caused many of the railroads, hotels
and restaurants to change to white
help. The latter must be paid higher
wages, but they are said to be more
satisfactory.
Speaking of the new order, an officer
or the Santa F'e said:
we are determined that every pa
iron of the Santa F'e shall be treated
alike and to this end we have issued
the order against tip soliciting. We do
not forbid our walters from accepting
fees or tips, but we insist that the same
attention and service be accorded to the
man who does not pay a waiter as that

The Santa F'e maintains an elaborate
ana extensive system of dining cars and

ployed exclusively in the dining cars.

and for this reason they are demanding
higher wages.

Expect to Save Much Money.

Ofhcials of the Santa Fee expect a
great reduction in operating expenses
to result from the improved facilities
with which they have provided them
selves for handling traffic, says an ex-
change The company's new motive
power will practically all be in service
by July L next, and with it the depart
ment expects to cut down the engine
mileage very materially. A marked
improvement in this respect is being
made in the current fiscal year, but
next year full results should be obtain
ed The Santa Fre has suffered from
relatively poor motive power since re-
organization, and has been obliged to
spend very large sums on maintenance
of its locomotives every year. This has
been true in a measure of freight equip
ment also, but both motive power and
freight equipment are being greatly
improved now, and will be further bet
tered in the near future. Mr.. Kendrick
expects that the saving in the trans
portal ton department alone will equal
the sinking fund of the debentures
The Santa F'e has made comparisons so
far this year with a period in which
100000 was arbitrarily charged against
the expenses for betterments. This has
enabled the company to keep its total
expenses down and yet spend fully as
much for pure maintenance as in 1900.
expenses so far show a
declining tendency, which will become
more marked in the next few months,
as at this time last year the

purposes.

GOVERNMENT DON'T LIKE 1T.
May Make Trouble Tor the Military
Rate Pool,

It is likely that the war department will
erect radical changes in the rating and
routing of the movement of troops over
the eastern and western roads
The routing and rating of troops has
caused the government authorities consid-
cradle trouble. The railroads have been
attempting to pool this business for sew
eral years and the war department has
been trying to defeat the plans of the
transportation managers
The army officers, it is said, will in
future ignore any bid for transportation
or troops that does not quote charges 5
low at least as the rates made for parties
OF ten or more persons. which is cents
a mile The government claims the right
to settle all movements on the party
rates basis in case bids are not lower
than that standard
Several court decisions are to the effect
that the railroads must not discriminate
IN quoting party rates, but must allow
them to any party of ten more. The
passenger agents say they have OBJ
lection to allowing the party rates for SOL
der business. but object to being forced
to allow this rate in addition to the con-
ceSSiOns which must be made by govern
ment land grant roads.

Santa Fe Considering New Daily
TranseOntinental Train.
Will Carry Nothing But Mai,
Baggage and Express.
TOPEKA NEEDS CHANGE
Afternoon Westb0und Service is
Now Very Weak.
Running Schedule of No. 1 Nay
Be Reduced.
TOPEKA NEEDS CHANGE

Instead of running a fourth daily
transcontinentaI passenger train, 1t is
likely that the Santa Ffe road Will put
into service within a short time a daily
mail and express train from Chicago
TO the Pacific coast.
This will enable the present trans
continental trains to carry less mail
and baggage. and thereby keep closer
TO schedule time than is at present pos
sible-
If the new mail and express train is
put on, it will probably be arranged to
pass through Topeka about in the
afternoon, thus greatly improving the
west-bound afternoon Santa F'e service,
which is now very weak out of Topeka.
If the new train is not put on, it IS
likely that the schedule of train No. 1.
which reaches Topeka west-bound at
lis p. m, will be changed so that this
train will make a slower trip and reach
,opeka later in the afternoon. At pres
ent No 1 is too heavy and too fast to
make its schedule time, and is late
nearly every day
Train No. I, the California train,
which reaches Topeka at lis. is about
two hours faster between Chicago and
Kansas City than No. 5. the Chicago
Denver train If No 1 should run at
the same speed as No. it would reach
Topeka about 3:15 in the afternoon,
which would be very satisfactory to
Topeka people.
1t is possible that the proposed new
train to California, carrying nothing
but mail, baggage and express, would
in this case be run from Kansas City
TO Enporia over the cut-off, and No. Z,
which would be relieved OF a large
amount of baggage cars, would come
around by way of Topeka instead of
taking the cutoff.
A west bound train from Topeka some
time during the afternoon is one of the
great needs of Topeka, and the question
of how best TO arrange for such train
is now being seriously considered by the
Santa Fe officials.
General Passenger Agent W. ]. Black
when asked concerning the proposed
new train to the coast said:
1T can not be stated positively just
now that the Santa Fe will put on
fourth train from Chicago to the coast,
but it is a fact that the matter is being
considered There is no doubt that We
need a new train Our business justifies
IT. We are loading our present trains
too heavily with baggage and mail, and
the best plan of relief is to put on a new
