CRIMINALS In CHICAGO
SAID TO CONTROL POLICE, POLL
TICIANS, MAGISTRATES AND
ENTIRE SITUATION.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-More than 1000
cases are awaiting trial in the Grim
inal court and the result is that
States Attorney Deneen, driven to his
wits end to reduce the docket, has
demanded that judges clear up the
waiting trials and thus give him and
his assistants free rein to keep up
with the work ordinarily required Of
them and cope with the increased Ia
Dor imposed upon the office monthly
by grand juries.
There are more than 900 persons
| in the court Jail, half Of them await
! ing trial. Assistant States Attorney
Barnes says that in the last six years
| the Cook county grand jury had
year, returning about 5000 indict-
ments annually. Many cases now
pending have been called at each Of
| three terms of court and must be
| disposed Of at once.
A mass meeting Of Hyde Park cit
! liens was held last night to start a
movement to demand more police pro-
| lection for the district. The speakers
declared that there is an alliance be-
tween police officials and powerful
politicians which protects criminals
and prevents their apprehension.
In spite Of the graft investigation
which has exposed official corruption
in the police department., the auCnOrl-
ties seem powerless to check the wave
of crime which is sweeping over the
city. "
The arrest of the car barn murderers
seemed to have been a signal for an
outpouring Of thugs and bandits who
have participated in carnival of rob-
berries and murders.
The police department seems for the
most part to be stupef1ed and nc
amount of shaking up suffices tc
arouse it. Inspector Schuettler, prob.
ably the most efficient man on the
force, has been made assistant chief
but until the department is completely
cleaned out the appointment canno
do much good. 1t simply removes ar
efficient executive man to an office
Job where he plays second fiddle.
Chief O'Neill and Mayor Harrison
blame the newspapers for the sudde1
increase in crime. saying that the pub
licity given to the careers of the ca
barn murderers melted other men tt
. follow in their footsteps, but this il
regarded as a specious defense.
They also denounce justices an
judges for light sentences at this time
There is some truth in this, for
r large proportion Of suspicious charac
| tiers who are arrested armed are dis
, charged without fine for violation o
the law against carrying revolvers.

PREDICTS RATE WAR
Prominent Operating Official Says 1t
Is Sure to Come.

Special to The Journal, g..
New York, Dec. 10.-One of the
most prominent operating officials in
the United States, who has served his
years also in the traffic department,
says: II don't like to think of it,
but am as certain as am Of to-nor-
rows sun that we have not seen the
last big rate war west of the Mis-
sisippi. There is going to be war on
the first crop failure if it doesn't come
before that time.
'Just at present Missouri Pacific
and Frisco are shaping for a scrap.
Rock Island went to Mr.. Gould and
said: We want right of way over
your new line to the gulf, with the
right to do local business. If we don't
get 1t we shall build
"Mr. Gould told them after a while
to go ahead and build. And they are
doing it to-day. There are going to
be two lines down the west shore Of
the Mississippi 800 miles long and
nowhere more than two miles apart.
That is, unless somebody comes to
their senses. I don't know the pros
and cons, but it's an easy guess that
somebody is wrong. The sooner they
find out who it is the sooner I shall
sleep at nights, for I, too, have inter
ests in the Missouri Pacific country
| and in Frisco.
"Of course, Great Western is raising
a row. 1t would be funny if there
were no little lapses like this into the
old state Of affairs. Mr.. Stickney is
an altruist. He saw that there was
a big margin Of profit in business from
Omaha to Minneapolis over his nice
new line at the old rates, and he de-
termined to give a slice Of it to thu
shippers. It is the brand of altru
ism that begins at home. It doesn'
touch his next door neighbours, tn,
railroads, at all. That's the rub. How
ever, they may fix that up. 1t alone
will not disorganize the universe any
way.

THE NEW DAM.
Mr.. Reed of Washington, Up Here
With IDEAS.

W. F. Reed of Washington, a civil
engineer of the United States service
and a man who knows what he is talk
ing about, has been in town this week
and he is very much interested in the
plan of damming the Connecticut, CIV
ing the town some water power and,
incidentally, doubling the population of
the place.
Mr. Reed is on a visit to his family
at Park Hill, n. H. He is well known
and he belongs to the United States
service. He knows all about the prob
lens of electrical engineering, dam
building, bridge construction and all
that He has had much to do with the
construction of the navy yard plant
and is up to date in his work.
He is a personal friend of Col. G.
H Bond of this town with whom he
has spent day or two in Investigate
ing problems of damming the river
and making Brattleboro grow. He has
full faith in the project and will con-
tinue his Investigations and report
to capitalists in Washington.
There seems to be every reason for
the guess that something will soon be
done.

PENALTY OF OLD AGE.
City Horses, Worn Out, Go to the
Country to Die.


Apropos of recent visit to Boston
by Mrs. Powers. agent of the Humane
society, Our Four Footed Friends"
the official organ of the league, has
this to say of the end of good horses
who have faithfully served their own
ers until they have finally become
worn out:
There is firm in Boston who have
the finest stables in town and all the
most approved conditions for the care
of their horses. The horses belong
ing to this firm are well fed, carefully
driven, groomed by expert stable men,
rested "a day out Of each week, and
then sold as soon as they show signs
of age to farmers up in the country.
An agent actively engaged in humane
work in New Hampshire and in Ver-
mont has recently visited this city,
and all who think it is a humane act
to sell o. give old horses to farmers
should have a chance to hear what she
has to say about this matter. They
are taken from warm city stables to
old country barns, where the wind
sports through every crack, often left
standing all night in narrow stalls
unblanketed, fed on coarse hay with
scarcely a taste of grain, and one
might as well say that it is humane to
take an old person from a snug city
home, we'll heated, where every COM
fort had been enjoyed, and put him or
her into farmhouse to live in a cold
room and have the poorest food and
no care. Most of US would rather die
than to suffer such a change in old
age.
