A Flying Hotel.

"The Golden State Limited, I" recently
placed in service between Chicago and
California by the Rock Island System, is
beyond doubt the most practical train
ever constructed. Bath rooms, barber
shop, library, dining service, electric
lights, electric fans-in fact every con-
trivance imaginable.
The Rock Island was the first line to
establish low excursion rates between
the east and Colorado, and the officials
will not cease to expound every effort to
continue to increase the popularity of its
resorts. With this in view, it will not be
surprising to see in the very near future
such trains as the Colorado Flyer" and
the Rocky Mountain Limited" similarly
equipped.
One thing is certain, there is never
anything better than the Rock Island
Service, and its dining car system is in
comparable.

Order of Railway Conductors.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 15,-Consider-
able business was transacted at the
third session of the twenty-ninth BIZ
ennial convention of the Order of
Railway Conductors yesterday. The
business completed was mostly Of
routine nature, few questions of in
terest being presented. The question
of an unlimited reserve fund in the
insurance department has been prac-
tically decided and was yesterday
passed on second reading. Probably
the most important new matter dis
cussed was the law of eligibility.
Since the founding of the order q
conductor was barred from member
ship until he had served 313 days
actual work as a conductor. This
period the members now consider too
long and are disposed to cut it down
to 1855 days or just about one-half.
Such an amendment passed on sec
ond reading.

MISSOURI BOODLING.
Ex-State Senator Schweikardt Be-
fore the Grand Jury.
An EXPOSE OF ALL THE BIG JOBS.
The Ex-senator Cannot BE Prosecuted for
Some Of Them ON Account Of the Statute
OF Limitations-Grand Jury TO
Report TO-Morrow.

st. Louis, May 14.-Charles Schwei-
kardt, former state senator, in SCI
ries of conferences to the grand jury,
has laid the foundation for o COM
plete and thorough expose of all Of
the big Jobs" which have been put
through the legislature On the last
six years-transit, combine, railroad
favors and long line Of minor meas
ures of the "hold up" variety.
Schweikardt is said to have revealed
that he not only divided $1,000 be-
tween four senators in the session of
1899, but that he carried $1,000 to
Jefferson City to defeat the Nesbit
bill. He gave Senator Frank II. Far
ris, leader Of the "big 10" combine,
$500 of the $1,000, but received it
back. 1t is said that the agreement
was that the money should be re-
turned in case the goods were not
delivered"-th is, II the bill, which
affected elections in St. Louis, was
not defeated. II is thought that o
party caucus may have had some
thing to do with the failure of Far
ris to deliver the goods" in this
case. .,..
Senator Schweikardt is said to have
impaired information relative to
number OF Doodle deals during the
session Of four years ago. He can;
not be prosecuted for any participa-
ton therein, on account OF the
statute of limitations.
The other witnesses Of the day
were Paul Coste, attorney for the
candy manufacturers while bill at
fecting them was pending in the SEES
sion Of 1899, and Cornelius Dolan, OF
Kansas City, a member Of the last
house Of representatives; Senators
Mott, Rollins and Busche. Repre-
sentative Dolan denied that he was
the member referred to in the story
related by Chaplain Russell, OF the
house, as having received money and
declaring that he would return it.
The grand jury will make partial
report tomorrow. Several indict-
ments, It is understood, have already
been voted and several others are ex-
pected.
To-day Judge Ryan will be asked to
pass upon the questions asked ex-
Senator Lyons, of Kansas City, which
that gentleman refused to answer,
on constitutional grounds.
