UNDERHAND WORK.
Santa Fe Roadmaster Steals Gang of
Workmen from the Frisco.

The following is from Chanute: Road
master Hadeen rather cleverly did the
Frisco last Tuesday. Laborers willing
to do grading and other heavy construc-
ton work at the price paid by a rail-
road company are difficult to obtain
and Hadeen has been working short
handed on all track work about the new
depot The Frisco in some way sue
ceeded in collecting a gang of
forty men and shipped them to Gil
rard to lay steel rails. They were being
fed by the company in boarding cars
and became dissatisfied with the grub.
Andy received a tip of the mems in
tentiOn to strike and wired the Santa
Fe agent at Girard to confer with the
foreman and persuade him to transfer
his gang to the Santa Fe. The bargain
was made and Ramsey brought the en-
tire torce of forty to Chanute Tuesday
evening. They are employed in grading
for the depot tracks and seem satisfied
with the change. The Frisco, however,
will be Hadeen's open enemy for all
time.

MORE FREIGHT HOUSES.
Kansas City Shippers Want Both il
and Outbound Depots

Kansas City, Aug. 18--There is a
movement on foot among the merch-
ants here to force the railroads to take
steps to handle freight more promptly.
1t is claimed by wholesale houses here
that Il c. L. Qess than car lots), are
always subject to more or less delay
and that the cost of handling to and
from the freight houses has been in
creased nearly 100 per cent since the
railroads have adopted the plan OK load
ing direct to the cars. This plan has
been in effect about a year and half
and since its adoption has been the
cause of endless delays.
Prior to this time the wholesale
houses sent freight to the depots, I'M
loaded it on the platforms. received a
receipt for it and then returned to the
house for another load. This. the
wholesale men say. is impossible now.
Where formerly a wagon made three
and sometimes four triDs in an after
noon, it makes but one, or at the most
two. and then only by starting imme-
diately after lunch to the depot.
The wholesale men unite in saying
that the present plan of loading direct
to the cars is a nuisance and they ask
that it be done away with: The mat
ter has been brought to the attention
OF the transportation bureau and Com
missioner w. F. Trickett has taken it
UP with the railroads.
Under the present plan the railroads
handle all in and outbound freight
through the same depot, and the result
IS a jam at the loading platforms at all
times. Two freight houses for each
road are needed for taking care of Kan
sas City freight and the present plans,
if pushed through. will result in the
roads increasing their facilities.
when the roads adopted the plan of
loading direct to the cars it was under
protest from the wholesale men," said
= prominent grocery dealer yesterday.
I'VE feared that the plan would cause a
waste of time to US. but it was protest
ed by the roads that it would insure
prompt shipments. We have given them
year and a half to try it and during
that time we have never been able to
handle shipments as expeditiousiy as
before. We are always tied up and
frequently our wagons return TO the
barns at night with loads of freight

with ease and grace. However, French
women will never become such inveter-
ate sports as those OF England and
America; they get their ideas of femin-
inc beauty from the Greek statues, and
there is a womanliness in them that the
French women do not want to lose. The
athletic woman is a mannish woman.
Not long ago, during a conversation
about sports for women, an American,
who is a connoisseur in wormanly
beauty, was asked what he thought of
a certain college girl. and said; She
is too great lover of sports; she has
developed her muscles until they look
like a mans: / would just as soon see
man as that woman in a decollete
dress. That is going too far, for with
strength and health we want womanly
beauty Brooklyn Eagle.

OF delays Formerly we could unload
our stuff on the platforms and get a

must be loaded direct from the wagon
to truck for hauling to the car and it

railroads adopted this plan in order to
reduce their working forces, as it does
not take so many men. The railroads
