COAL MEN COMPL Lain
Say Per Diem System oil
Charges Works Hardships.

st. Paul coal dealers, as well as coal
dealers in other cities, have been hit
hard by the per diem system of charg-
ing and accounting for freight cars
adopted by railroads generally few
months ago instead of the old mile
age system. Coal deaders therefore
assert that this action of the railroads
may serve to promote the price of
coal.
Under the old system car service was
computed by the number of miles
which a car travelled while on freight
line, but this was changed by mutual
agreement of the car accountants of all
the railroads. so that at present the col
lection is made by the day.
1t was formerly the custom for the
wholesale coal dealer to order several
hundred cars Of coal and keep them
standing on the side track so that or
ders could be filed Immediately after
they We're received, but this is all
changed, much to the, detriment Of the
dealers. Since the new order went
into effect the dealereis safe in order
ing only so much coal as he feels sure
of selling.
There is another z feature which
comes in here to make matters worse
for the coal man. In, some cases when
coal is ordered from the mines it ar
rives in three or four days and in other
cases it does not arrive for, perhaps,
three or four weeks, so that the dealer
is always at sea as to just how he is
going to come out.
Of 1OIIrSa tho IInI09 ding IF the fIIal
and holding It in the local yards is
not to be thought of On wholesale bus
mess, as the cost of taking the coal out
Of the cars and reloading 1t would con-
sumo most of the profit. The dealer is
allowed two days time to dispose Of a
loaded car on reconsignment and three
days in cases where the car is to be
unloaded. After that time has, expired
he is charged at the rate of 81 per day
for the use of the car.

GREAT NORTHERN SHOP
HANDS ARE LAID OFF
Force at Spokane Is Reduced, but Only
Temporarily.

SPOKANE, Wash. Nov. Seventy
five employees of the Great Northern shops
at Hillyard were laid off indefinitely Sat
urday. This move is said to be in pursu-
ance of general policy of retrenchment
in shops all along the line.
None of the local officials of the COM
pany would discuss the matter last even
ing. The employees express the hope that
their enforced fdleness will be but tenn
porary, as they say there is plenty OF
work on hand to keep them all busy
Employees of the Northern Pacific shops
at the coast, whose hours of labor were
cut down about a month ago, have gone
back to the ten-hour day. This means an
increase of about 271s cents day to each
of about 1000 shop employees there. who
have been working but nine hours day.
The return to the longer time at Tacoma
is believed to have been the result OF

Saturdays Dispatch.

The Northern Pacific and the Bur-
lington have entered into an arrange
ment with the Chicago Grand Trunk
whereby transcontinental freight may
be routed direct from the Atlantic
coast to the Tacoma wharves, and
thence to Oriental points, via the new
Canadian Austra1iandiand the Puget
sound steamship lines. The first sail
ing will be made Dec. 20.
This announcemeAtEis looked upon
as being Of the utmost Importance to
railroads. E@~
The Grand Trunk gyms a direct line
from the Atlantic, aid within a few
months will have a double-track low
grade railroad from tfdewater to Chi
cago. From this point, the freight will
be taken by the Burlington. trans
ferred to the NorGtefn Pacific, either
at st. Paul or Billings, and carried
thence to Tacoma. teed
The Grand Trunk Is practically In
dependent Of the Trunk Line associa-
ton and no rates or terms can be die
tated. By securing this connection the
Grand Trunk is still more Independent
Of the Trunk Line association.
By the new arrangement a new route
from coast to coast is provided.

CHICAGO. Nov. 10. - The Grand
Trunk has entered into a traffic ALI
ance with the Burlington and the
Northern Pacific whereby transconti-
mental freight may be routed direct
from the Atlantic coast ports to Ia
coma and the Orient via the newly es-
tablished Canadian and Puget sound
steamship lines. The first sailing will
be made Dec. 20.
The Grand Trunk is practically.
though not completely, independent of
the Trunk Line association. 1t has
always been stated by the Trunk Line
officials that the lack of a connection
west of Chicago would suffice to
keep the Grand Trunk within bounds
in regard to rates.

He says, however, that the conductor

Lower River Boats Will
 B gin Running Again.

The lower Yukon steamers have all been making very slow progress going up the river. Many people bound down the river from Dawson have been compelled to abandon the trip and to return up stream to Skagway. Others are stlll stuck at Dawson. Dr. Braw- and received letter from John F. Dil- lon last night, and he, like others, was stuck at Dawson.
 However, a dispatch In the Dawson Sun from Eagle of July 2i states that many Of the boats that have been caus- ing so much uneasineSs to their owners are coming up the river
 The Pacific Cold Storage Company's s steamer Kerr had arrived at Eagle, bringing news Of the lower river boats. The Kerr reports the Sarah to be on a bar 20 miles below Circle City. The Hannah was expected to follow the Kerr, and the Leah behind the Han nah. The Kerr's crew said the water came up considerably after passing the Sarah, and it was thought she would get of with help.

NO FAIR
Barnes Says DawsOnites Are
 Not Good SpOrtsmen.

That the Dawson baseball league IS in the hands of men, many of whom arc not true sportsmen, Is the opinion o' Charley Barnes, who returned from the Yukon metropolis last night. Mir. Barnes says the Dawsonites insisted that all games be umpired by the league umpire, and that the latter was so unfair that the Dawsonitcs them- selves were at times utterly disgusted. Mir. Barnes says further, that the um- pire admitted himself that the w. r. S Y. R. would have won the game against the Gandolios but for decis- ion that was wrong.
 It is also claimed by Mir. Barnes and in this the record bears him out, that the Dawsonites were really playing a picked team an The time instead ot each of the league teams Sperately. The line up shows tha, about half of the players were in an the games, and it Is said after the first inning, the oth- er half would be changed and protes- sional ball players would be put in at all positions.
