But Nobody Seems to Care Particularly
and It Would Appear That No In

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Worcester, Mass, Oct. 9-As far as
can be learned from the police and those
directly interested, no steps have been
taken toward the prosecution of any per-
son as the result of statement made
public today that handwriting expert
had found forged Endorsements to paper
of the Worcester & Southbridge Street
Railway company, aggregating $1,000, 900.
The road is now in the hands of re-
ceivers for purposes of reorganization,
and c. M. Thayer, speaking for these
officials, said today that the matters of
the forged Endorsement was matter for
action by persons whose names were
forged, rather than by the receivers.
George w. Wells, one of the principal
stockholders of the road, whose name is
alleged to have been found illegally affixed
to the notes of the company, said that he
could not discuss the question, as he had
retained counsel in Boston to act for him.
The court officials and the police here
have received no intimations that arrests
are to be made.

Washington, Oct. o.--At the cabinet
meeting today all the members except Sec
retary Root and Hitchcock were present
The principal topic OF discussion was the
postoificc investigation, which was consid-
cred at length, and especially with refer
ence to the trials Of the cases now pending
before the courts
At the conclusion OF the meeting Post
master General Payne said that it was not
the expectation that there would be a
wholesale dismissal Of clerks and division
chiefs OF the postolficc department as a re-
suit of the investigation.
Some further dismissas might be made,
he said on the recommendation OF Mr..
Bristow, but thus far it had been the prac-
tice to dismiss offenders as soon as the
evidence Of their corruption or incom-
potency had been obtained.

HOW to Nrnke Pine Woods.

Farmers in the White mountains have discovered, or learned, what farmers elsewhere are slow to as- certain. It is that if you lop off the lower limbs of balsams when they are young the limbs will not grow again. Thus the tree as lumber will be improved; it will be freer of knots Part of the income of farm CTS about Jackson and Bartlett, and in districts on the southern edge of the mountains, is derived from sell ing balsams and birches, cut into five-foot lengths, to mills that strip the logs into excelsior for cushions and mattresses. Certain hotel own CTS, desiring pine lands near their hotels on account of healthfulness, asked a government forester how to get them. The reply was: Cut off the hard woods; then turn the cattle in to pasture for three years. That will keep down the shoots of the hardwoods, and the pines, which cat tie avoid, will grow up, and their needles will keep down other growths.-N. Y. Post.

FARMERS OWN THE RAILROAD.
Line i'm North Dakota Built by Them- selves Is a Paying In-
 vestment.

Ramsey county is one of the few communities in the country that boast a railroad built by the farmers themselves for the purpose of trans porting their produce to market--a successful venture, says the Bis marck Tribune The stockholders of the Farmers road met at Garske re- gently and it was decided to issue bonds enough to cover the indebted ness of the road. Up to this time the indebtedness of the road had been secured only by a mortgage and by few of the principal stockholders who have been liable for the debt.
 A report of the financial condition of the road showed it very prosper ous. The gross earnings of the road since last October amount to some thing like $21, ,O00, while the net earn ings amount to about $15,oo0. The total indebtedness of the road is now about $103, ,0o0. It can be seen that the total indebtedness can be paid in about four years at the present rate of earnings. The earnings, how ever, will be much greater in the flu ture than they have been in the past. This report ought to put a complete quietus, on the rumor that the road has been sold to the Soo or any other party. The Farmers railroad still lives and will no doubt be on earth for years to come.
