Nothing Certain About the ROCK
Islands Texas Deal

Fort Worth, Tex, July 2S.-Interese
still centers in the ultimate outcome
of the Rock Island-Central deal ana
people interested are patiently waiting
the announcement when the election of
officers to preside over the combined in
terests will be held. Inquiry at ROCK
Island headquarters in Fort Worth
throws no light upon this proposition,
and very little, if anything tangible. IS
obtainable at this end. r. S. Iovett.
president of the Houston & Texas
Central and general counsel for the
Hartman interests in Texas, will re-
main in New York and Chicago until
the Rock Island deal has been consum-
mated. 1t is intimated that meeting
of the stockholders to elect three Rock
Island directors and a Rock Island pres
ident of the Houston & Texas Central
will not be held in the near future. 1t
is the policy in connection with the
management of the combined interests
to arrange all other matters connected
with the deal after which the new
president. vice president, directors, etc.
will receive attention. This will be the
final action taken in completing the
transac tion uniting the two interests.
1t is now stated that the apOoint-
ment of W. G. Parker to the auditor
ship of the Central was in no way con-
nected with the Rock Island deal.
While there is speculation regarding
the exact changes to be made in the
Central as result of the consolidation
of the Central and the Houston & West
Texas and the Rock Island, it is stated
that not more than three other changes
are yet to be made.

A CHICAGO BUSINESS MAN
Cured by Pe-ru-na of Catarrh
of the Stomach After Doc
tors Failed.

VIM N. Selig, a well known business
man of Chicago, Ill, in a recent letter
from 4S Peck Court, Chicago, ILL.,, says:
"After having used several reme-
dies for indigestion without beneficial
results, I was induced by a friend of
mine to try Peruna. and I gladly say
that it effected a positive cure.
IL have lately recommended it to
several of my acquaintance as I firmly
believe il is all that is claimed for it,
In catarrh of the stomach, as well as
catarrh of any part of the body, Peruna
is the remedy AS has been often said
if Peruna will cure cztarrh of one part
it will cure catarrh' of any other part
of the body.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
and the remedy that will cure it any
where will cure it everywhere.

WHO WILL PAY DAMAGEP
Question Raised for Interchange Com
mittee by Kansas Flood.

The Kansas and Missouri floods again
make prominenet a delicate point in the
Master Car Builders Rules for Inter
change that concerning responsibility
for cars away from home damaged by
the Act of God" A recent decision OF
the Arbitration Committee fixes the re-
sponsibility for a car destroyed by
cyclone upon the road having possess
sion of the car at the time of destruct-
ion, in pursuance of the provision in the
preface to the Rules. The preface broad
ly provides that damage done by acct
dent is chargeable to the road handling
the car, and the Committee ruled that
damage caused by a wash-out, fire or
tornado is covered by this provision. So
far as can now be recalled. this ques-
ton first occurred in 1896 as a result
of the St. Louis tornado. It was point
ed out then that the Interchange Rules
impose obligations not recognized by the
courts, since courts will not compel pay
ment for damages to property destroyed
by an act of God. Some of the St Louis
roads signifed their Willingness to re-
pair the damaged foreign cars at their
own expense. Others refused on the
ground that while willing to do so, pro-
vided other roads party to the Cole
would do likewise in the future, there
was no guarantee that such costs could
be collected, since redress was not OBJ
tainable in the courts. There will be
many similar cases based on damage or
destruction of cars in the recent floods,
and we understand that agreements are
being arranged on a basis similar to the
St Louis settlement.-Railway Gazette.

PAY FOR PRIVILEGE.
Method Used in Europe to Keep
Crowd from Depot Platforms.

We recently commented upon an I'M
reasonable criticism of the practice of
erecting fences and gates in railway sta
lions in the large cities to keep people
not intending to become passengers
from crowding up to the trains, says the
Railway Review. The necessity for such
a provision, particularly at terminal sta
TONS is of course apparent, and people
who have had opportunity to observe
the conditions would hardly expect a
railroad company to assume the defen-
sive in any objection that is raised to
the practice. In this connection the
practice of railroads, quite largely, in
Europe, in handling crowds of people at
stations is interesting. The platforms
are fenced off from the waiting rooms
or other parts of the station where peo-
pie con2regate without restriction, and
through the gates unless they can show
either railroad ticket or a ticket giving
them the privilege of the platform.
These so-cailed privilege tickets cost
about 215 cents each. and may be pro-
cured by dropping a coin in a slot ma
chine Persons VINO wish to accompany
passengers to the trains may therefore
do so at nominal expense, but the free
passage of the public through the depots
and upon the platforms where the trains
enter and depart is restricted. The rail-
ways of the Grand Duchy of Baden,
which have hitherto enforced no restric-
tions on the movement of people about
their stations, are now putting this sys-
tenn into force. As the new order in
wolves considerable expense and neces-
states some changes at the stations, it
will not become effective on all lines at
once, but is being carried out gradually.

chirAe: It is a fact that there are
great many excellent operators out OF
work today for the simple reason that
they cannot handle a Geographic key
on account of their being paralyzed in
the hand wrist and arm. This peculiar
aff1iction is very common among oper-
ators. They can receive message, they
understand the code perfectly but on
account of their paralysis they simply
cannot operate a Geographic key Con-
sequently it is necessary for them to
give up the business altogether. This
machine of mine, however. will do away
with that constant use of the arm, wrist
and hand and in the long run paralysis
among operators win be eliminated"
Mr. Morelock's machine excells other
machines of its kind in one other respect
With other machines, especially Mr. yet
mans. the shaft upon which the SynDoi
discs are mounted is operated by CLOCK
spring This has to be wound nearly every
hour and is the source of much trouble TO
the operator for the reason that as the
spring runs down the speed OF the machine
becomes irregular and almost unlntelnsi-
BILE to the operator at the other END OF the
wire. In Mr.. Morelock's machine this
shaft is revolved by a motor, thus render
ing the speed of the machine always reg
ular. This motor attachment also does
away with the necessity of winding the
machine every hour or So The Morelock
has another feature which is not possessed
by any other machine. 1t is equipped with
motor lock attachment which prevents
the operator from pressing more than one
age uninteIli gible. Mr.. MOrelOckS machine
is also equipped with device with which
the speed of the machine can be regulated.
1t is possible to send about 40 words per
minute with Mr.. MOrelockS transmitter. 1t
must be understood that 40 words per
minute would be beyond comprehension,
but is possible with WheatstOne or Morse
register. providing the typewriter can be
operated that fast About so words per
minute, however, is as fast as an operator
could possibly take message from the
machine.
Now that Mr. MOI clock has completed
his machine he intends to begin the work
of manufa curing them as soon as posi-
bic. Mr.. Morelock said yesterday that all
of this work will be done in Topeka and
that the work would be commenced just as
soon as he could secure stamps and dies
with which to manufacture the different
parts of the machine.
Mr. Morelock's invention is protected by
several different patents. Representatives
of the Remington typewriter company and
several other typewriter concerns have en-
deavored to buy Mr.. l1O-elock's invention.
but he will probably arrange to put the
invention on the market with his own
company.

FIGURING UP THE CROP.
New York Railroad Magnates The
What Kansas Has Done.

New York, July 2S.-Reports received
in the New York offices of the railroads
which drain the great southwestern
agricultural belt indicate that the wheat
crop, which is nearly harvested, will
exceed the estimates made three weeks
ago.
The Atchison and the ST. Louis and
San Francisco have canvassed the trib-
rtary territory to their lines very care
FULLY In order to obtain data for eSu-
mating the necessary car supply. The
reports from the Atchison's agents esti-
mate the wheat harvest in Texas at
25. 600 900 bushels, in Oklahoma at 49,
600 900 and in Kansas at IS, OOO, 900 bush
els.
Estimates made by the Frisco indicate
a yield of 100, 900, 900 in Kansas, the esti-
mated for Texas and Oklahoma being
identical with those of the Atchison-
Advices received at the Atchison Off
ceS state that the secretary of the KAN
sas state board of agriculture estimates
the wheat yield of 100, 900, 900 in Kansas,

two weeks delayed. AtchiSOn Officials
expect an average yield of corn and
harvest of S.25O,OOO to S.5OO,0OO bales of
cotton in Texas.

our wheat traffic alone will earn our
dividends for the year on the first and

and in many sections is now assured.
Cotton is improving every day, and
we have no doubt of a large yield. Traf-
fic in sight is enormous, and, in spite
of our large recent additions to equip
ment, we are short today on cars to
move grain and lumber. On the Enid
Vernon line we are now loading more
than forty cars of new wheat daily

Santa Fe-Pennsylvania Deal Again
on the Docket

Chicago. July 2S.-There has been during
the past few days a revival of the rumors
that the Pennsylvania Railroad company
IS planning to get foothold west of the
mississippi river and that this is to be
accomplished through a purchase or traf-
hc agreement with the Santa Fee The
declaration that this is merely a repetition
OF an old story that has no solid founda-
ton to support it has not served TO re.
move the impression that there is at least
something in it,
AS long as the Pennsylvania was allow
ed to have supreme control in the territory
contributing the heavy iron, coal ana
manufactured products of the Pittsburg
district it ignored the new idea of EXTEND
ing feeder lines to the Pacific ocean. When
the success of the Gould plans to get to
The Atlantic became reasonably certain
there was no longer left a reason for the
PENNSYLVANIA holding to the old doctrine
of keeping out of the west
The Gould lines will be the direct COM
petitorS of the Pennsylvania in its strong-
est territory and they are already strongly
intrenched in the country west of the Mis-
SiSSippi river.

Mr.. Morelock has been working on
this machine for about year. He real
~ completed it several months ago and
since then the first machine of its kind
has been under process Of construction
at the Santa Fe shops in this city With
the exception of one or two possible inn
provements the machine is now COM
pleted and Mr. More!Ock is now using il
every night at the Santa F'e telegraph
Office. So far it has worked to perfec-
ton and all experiments that have been
made have been successful.
In some respects Mr.. MOrelOclxs ma
chine is similar to the Yetman tele-
graphic transmitter, two of which are
now in use in the local telegraph Office
of the Rock Island. but in it are en-
bodied many new principles which are
a credit to the genius of the inventor.
In fact Mr.. Morelock's machine excels
the Yetman machine in nearly every re-
spect and it is for this reason that near
ly every one who has seen 1t in opera
tion thinks that it will net its owner a
fortune The Yetman machine is a
clumsy affair It is built inside of the
typewriter thus making it necessary for
one to purchase typewriter and all when
he wishes to buy a transmitter. This
fact makes the Yetman machine very
expensive and in this respect it is not a
success for very few opera tors are will
ling to spend so much money on a ma
chine of this kind. This is not the case
with Mr.. Morelock's transmitter, how
ever. His is small and compact and can
be attached to any typewriter. Conse-
quently it can be manufactured and
purchased for a very small amount OF
money. Mr.. Morelock thinks that he can
put the finished article on the market
for about ten or fifteen dollars.
THAT was my main object in invent
ing the machine" said Mr.. Morelock.
Il wished to put an article on the mar
ket which would be within the reach Of
the most humble operator. 1 also had
another reason for inventing the ma
