bic destruction of the train. But the
snake, after wrapping around Clark's
ann swayed to and f.! o a moment, fix
ing its stony eyes on the engineer.
The COILS tightened, the neck arched.
the jaws slowly opened and Clark
heard the buzz of the ratties.
At that sound Clark realized that
it was time to do something and
gripped the snake just below the head
with his free hand.
His first thought was to tear the
reptile off and throw it ION the cab,
but with one arm held by the snake
and the other engaged with its head
he could not do this. His train was
also jumping over the rails at rapid
speed on a rough part of the road and
he knew he could not take any
chances.
Mile after mile sped by with Clark
keeping off the snake and running his
train. Rowland was near, and if he
could reach the station and stop the
t; ain ne would be able to finish the
rattler. The fireman terrorstricken
by the very sight of the rattler, VS.

enter the cab.
Rowland drew near and Clark revers-
ed the lever. The train slackened its
speed and the engineer brought 1t to
stop at the station. The fireman
eaped from the cab and fed.
Then with his left hand Clark
opened a stop cock, while with his
right he brought the snakes head into
the steam that poured forth. The

as another OF the queer Wills Ol teA-
tamentary literature, but which
friends of the testator say is not
queer at all-only thoroughly chat
acteriS1ic of the mans nobility OF
mind and charactel-is the DOCUMENT
that was recently admitted to pro
bate in this city as the last will and
testament" of Colonel Joseph Barton
Chandler Under its provisions part
of the testator's 100000 estate is to
be applied after the death of his widow
and certain other relatives to cru
sade for the suppression of vice IN
the wicked western country of which
Chicago is supposed to be the Vof'
tex. The funds for this purpose are
to be turned over at the proper time
preston or Vice, if such an organiZa-
tion is in existence at the time when
the beuuest becomes available.
Should it chance that no such society
or organization IS then battling with
the forces of vice in these parts, the
will directs sin that event that the
Northern Trust Company, executor
and trustee. shall expend the money
in a war for the suppression of vice
in whatever manner its officers may
deem most in keeping with the in
tention of the testator in making the
request.
Only one-fifth of 100000, Or about
$4,000, is bequeathed to the antl-ylce
crusade. The ematnder is to be
given in equal parts to four charlta-
bic institutions of this city-the nome
for the friendless. the Chicago Relief
and Aid society, the Chicago home for
incurables and the Chicago old peo-
pies home.
Perfect Will; Wrote It Himself
1t is the bequest for the suppress
sion of vice that has gained for the
will the distinction of novelty. In
most other respects the document is
of the conventional type, though
rather more lengthy than the
average testamentary paper. 1t was
written by Colonel Chandler himself
and in the probate court is said to be
the most lucid and unambiguous, the
nearest to being the perfect will of
any document placed on file there for
a genel alton.
Colonel Chandler was for years the
private secretary Of Stephen A.
Douglas. to whom he was greatly at
tached by ties of friendship and gen
ial association Besides Douglas he
numbered among his close personal
friends Abraham Lincoln, Potter
Palmer Secl etary Seward. Congress
man r. R. Hit, Colonel Nelson
Lyle Dickey. General John \. Nc
Clearnand and other celebrities of
generation that has now passed into
history.
In telegram to Mrs. Chandler
from Washington. Congressman HIT
spoke of Colonel Chandler as "one
of the noblest of men and uest OF
fiiends"
Just what motive impelled Colonel
Chandler to devote some OF his for
tune to the cause of vice suppression
in Chicago and the west had not peen
clear. \ favCrite explanation among
his friends is given as his quaker
faith. He was disgusted with the pro
family and vulgarity and vice to be
met with in late years at every turn
IN many of the most prominent streets
and boulevards of the city. He traced
much of the vice of the times 10 the
depraved taste developed by vile
reading and pictures He regarded
immoral books and pictures as CON
stituting the greatest evil of the
times
Disliked yellow Journals.

the rates must be the same on both classes
Of traffic inland carriers would in many
instances mako domestic rates that would
be lower than those now in force. 1t
often happens, he said, that railroad car
riers have to make rates on imported
larticIes where they; have no domestic
articles of the same class, and that@under
such g. law these carriers could make a
low import rate without suffering ANY
diminution of revenue from their domestic
traffic. while other carriers having q

The Reply Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission to Sen
ate Inquiry.

From The Journal Bureau, Room 49, Post Build.
ing, Washington.
Washington, March 17.-Shortly before
adjournment last summer the senate
passed a resolution Of inquiry into the
relation of railroad rates on imports and
exports from ports of entry to interior
points and the rates on the same articles
origina ting at the ports Of entry. 1t has
long been noted that We had in opera
tion In this respect a reversal of the pro-
tective system. The supreme court has
held that the long and short haul clause
does not apply to foreign business. 1t
results in. consequence that the British
exporter may be able to lay down GER
tain article in Chicago at a lower trans
portation charge than that on the same
article if produced in New Jersey. In its
Industrial aspects this phase of the trans
portation question is of far-reaching i'm
portance. The reply of the interstate
commerce commission to the resolution
of the se1la te is now In the hands Of the
printer, and will soon be made public.
1t contains a mass of information as well
as some intelligent discussion of the con-
siderations of the public policy which
weigh in favor the present practice.
The duty on cement is s cents per 100
pounds. The transportation charge on
this article from New York to Chicago
was found by the commission to be 20
cents per 100 pounds. and from Vulcanite.
N. j., 1t was IA cents. cement is largely
imported through Newport News; from
that port to Chicago the rate on the i'm
ported article was 10 cents. This charge
with the duty amounted to IS cents as
against a purely domestic rate on cement
from New York to Chicago Of 20 cents.
THE testimony shows that the through
rate from Antwerp and Hamburg via
Newport News to Chicago was IA cents
per 100 pounds, or exactly the domestic
rate from Vulcanite, n. j. The disparity
to East ST. Louis is cent greater in ia
vor of the imported article.
Salt pays g duty in bulk of s cents per
100 pounds. The domestic salt rate from
New York to Chicago is 20 cents, while
the rate between the same points on the
imported article is 13 cents. This; in
effect. scales the rate of duty down to
cent per 100 pounds. If however, New
port News is made the{ port of entry,
the rate to Chicago on the imported salt
with the duty. a rate 2 cents below that
on the domestic article originating in New
York. x .r.. .,s- s~
The duty on iron ore is 40: cents per
ton. From New York to Chicago the
freight rate on the domestic article was
Sound by, the investigation to be $3.50
per ton, against $3.50 on the imported ar
ticle. This difference Of 80 cents neutral
ICES the tariff completely and throws in
SO cents a ton toward ocean carriage on
the foreign article. A similar difference
prevails in regard to the ports Of Phila
delphia. Baltimore and Newport News.
