REGULAR ARMY TEAM
WINS DRYDEN TROPHY
Best Individual Rifle Score Is Made by
CoIored Sergeant.

SEAGIRT. N. J., Sapt. 1.-THE infantry
rifle team of the United States army came
to the fore decidedly late this afternoon
and captured the Dryden trophy by scor
ing a total of 995 out of a possible 1900
Quartermaster Sergeant Hawkins, a
negro, made the best individual score.
The competition was closer and more
spirited than any other team contest held
during the meet At the conclusion of the
firing at the 200yard stage, New Jersey
was in the lead. When cease firing
was sounded at the 5O0-yard stage, how
ever, the District of Columbia had NOV
ed to the front and led the race by II
points. But at the final stage, the LOCO
yard range, the infantry team of the Unit
ed States army closed the gap and fin
ished points ahead of it's nearest COM
petitor, the District of Columbia
The winning team received a cash prize
of $3.50 and will hold the beautiful trophy
for one year. The District of Columbia
team received second prize, 500. The
scores in the Dryden trophy match is as
follows.

Is making an extended trip about the

IN regard to railway operations
or course, when compared to your
systems, ours seem very primitive"
said Mr.. Mcintosh. but we are rap
idly getting hold of new ideas and in a
few years will have become thoroughly
moderntzed. We have two systems.
one on the north island and one on Hie
south. Both are owned and operated
by the government Within the last
two years we have purchased a number
OF American made locomotives
Owing to the mountainous charac-
ter OF the country, the narrow gauge
track is used entirely. Fast service Is
something we have not attained as vet.
All trains stop at every station and, of
course. that causes much delay. There
is no such thing as a through train in
New Zealand. We have no night trains
and consequently no sleeping cars All
the. employees of the roads work but
eight hours day.
One other thing that hinders the
making of fast time between points is
the fact that most of the trains are
what we called mixed that Is, made
up of freight and passenger cars, and,
Of course, whenever there is freight to
be taken on time is lost
ut costs much less to travel in New
Zealand than in this country, the av-
erage rate being about IL cents per
mile. On holiday excursions the rate
is usually l cent a mile for the round
trip. Our officials are paid about the
same as those in the United States.
They are divided into three or four
classes, and each man in the same class
draws the same salary. Promotions
are made from one class to the next
higher, with the corresponding higher
pay.
"Our telephones and telegraph sys-
TENS are also owned by the govern
ment. Telephones rent at about one
third less than in this country, and
kilograms about the same"

WHEAT Is A FAIR CROP.
Northwestern States Yield an Average
Harvest

Threshing has been. greatly delayed
throughout the Northwest. by the con-
tinuous rains, according to the weekly
report of the Northern Paeific's freight
department. However. it is not likely
that great damage will result from the
rain, as the shocks are drying out
without the grain Sprouting.
The yield of wheat while not as
great as was expected early in the
season, will be an average crop. Pros
poets now look much brighter than
they did a few weeks ago. The Red
river valley is showing up well. The
yield will amount to at least twelve
bushels to the acre, and in some To-
calities will go as high as twer ty-five.
In North Dakota the crop will average
at least fifteen bushels.
Potatoes and corn in Minnesota and
the other Northwestern states will be
poor crop. The weather during the
past few weeks has been decidedly I'M
favorable to corn.,sil The cool nights
have held back the grain, and the
days were no. sufficiently warm to
mature the backward crop. Potatoes
are rotting in the ground due to the
excess rains.

RENDERS NO DECISION.
Judge Kelly Hears arguments in Dis
tributon Rate Case.

Judge Kelly yesterday took under
advisement the distribution rate case
of the state railroad and warehouse
commission against the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific roads.
The commission is seeking to force
the railroads into giving the towns in
the interior of the state the same rates
for like distances as are made for ST.
Paul and Minneapolis. The case orig
mated almost three years ago, when
the jobbers at Crookston, st. Cloud and
Brainerd complained to the commits
sion that they were unable to get as
cheap rates for like distances as the
Twin Cities jobbers.
The commission at that time ordered
a reduction, which the railroads made.
On Jan. %, 1902, the. Great Northern
and the Northern Pacific notified the
commission that they were going to
restore the old rates. 1t was then de-
cided by the commission to take the
matter into the courts
Arguments in the case were heard
yesterday, Gen. Childs appearing for
the commission, General Solicitor NJ. d.

and Chief Counsel G. w. Bum the

OPPOSES UNIoNIsM IN
FIRE DEPARTMENTS
Chief Harris, of Tampa, Fla, Says IL
Is Fatal to the Service.

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Sept. IL
The International Association Of Chief
FIRE Engineers. at today's session, to-
day recalled the papers submitted bv
Chief A. ]. Harris, of Tampa, Fla. en-
tiled Should Firemen Become Mem
bers of Labor Unlons?" which the
board of directors shelved on account
OF the severe attack on unions It was
spread on the minutes. thereby gaining
the approval of the convention. Chief
Harris said:
"The moment the fireman becomes
labor unionist he ceases to be a true
and trusted fireman. Consider the fire.
man bound by the strict rules of or
ganized labor. The result is horrible
to contemplate. Our hazardous expe-
rience in Tampa taught all those who
watched the conflict with unprejudiced
eyes that the limit of labor unionism
had been reached when it seeks to en-
ter the fire service. There are many
reasons why firemen should not be
unionized. Politics in a fire depart
ment is bad enough, but labor union
ism is infinitely worse"
