East Hawaii. $500 West Hawaii, $50;

ty the power TO issue bonds and incur

Several changes are made in subdi-

that the Organic Act explicitly and

Collector, to be one officer; the Treas

'"TELEGRAPHONES" TRIED
Omaha Officials Make Interesting
and Successful Tests With
New Phone Device.

The Omaha road gave the "telegra phone"
a test yesterday afternoon between ST.
Paul and Hudson. The instrument in
vented by b. l.. Grauel. is used to permit
train crews and stations toS communicate
and to assist in handling trains. All that
is needed is the instrument aboard the
train and a telephone at each station.
Communication was had yesterday as far
east OF Eau Claire Wis. the last station
equipped with an instrument.
The wires along the railroad track are
reached by an extension pole, similar to
a jointed fishing rcd. At the end of the
rod is a hook placed over the wire with
which connection is desired and q wire is
run from the hook to the instrument in
is an ordinary telephone with a reef ON
which the wire that connects With the
telegraph wire is wound and unwOund.
The telephone in the train has two jacks
through which connection may be made
in either direction. BY means of this de 5.
vice it is possible to call in either direction
without signaling in the opposite direction.
When the instrument in the car is
connected with the Wire, the chalk of the
combina ton of currents which cause a
buzZing sound in the relay OF the office
connected with The operator. in, the
office then answers as with an ordinary
telephone and conversation may be car
ried on.
= The instruments used in the test yester-
day differ from the telephones generally
in use in that the receiver delivers the
sound with such strength and distinctness
that it is heard in all parts Of the car
The sound is similar to that produced by
a phonograph.
A large party Of twin city railroad men
witnessed the tests.

Mr.. HILL DOESN'T CARE
Talks OF Sale Of Lake Freighters and
Buffalo Elevator.

James j. Hill, president of the Great
Northern, has returned from the east. On
the sale of the Northern Steamship COM
panys freight steamers, the elevators ana
terminals at Buffalo, Mr.. Hill said:
We Still own the passenger steamers
North West and North Land. Those
steamers will continue to be operated by
the Great Northern. but we had no more
use for the freight boats. When we built
those boats lake freights were high and
elevator charges in Buffalo amounted to
a cent and a half a bushel. When we
built our elevators we put elevator
charges down to half a cent a bushel and
made a deep cut in freight rates between
Duluth and Buffalo.
'',rhere was only one man in the state
at that time who understood and appre-
ciated what the Great Northern had done
for the farmers of the northwest in re-
ducing those freight and elevator charges,
and that man was Ignatius Donnelly. He
was in Buffalo when our elevator was
opened and investigated our charges and
reported it in his paper.
But we don't want any more lake buSl-
ness. Buffalo is a long way from here
and it is hard to: manage interests that
are so widely scattered. Besides, If the
other people wanted QUE boats and were
willing to pay a fair price for them, let
them have them. We are tired of fight
ing other peoples battles, anyhow. Let
them fight for their own. That's why
the boats were sold, and I don't care
what the new owners do with them"

locations for the line.
At the time of his death he had. gone
some distance ahead. A blizzard arose
and great alarm was felt for his safety
and a search was instituted in the direc-

was not until several hours had elapsed
before he was found lying on the ground

STORY Is EXCUSE
TO RAISE RAT'ES.
Railroads Said to Be Using Diplomacy
To Allay Shippers
Anger.

(From the Marion, Ind, ws-Tribune.)
Reports have lately been spread by
the railroads: that owing to the large in
crease in expense, which is cutting down
their revenues, important improvements
they had planned for the coming summer
will have to be abandoned, says the Chi
cago Tribune.
These reports it is asserted, are given
out to allay the bitter feeling caused
among western shippers, merchants,
and manufacturers over the large ad-
vances lately made by the western and
eastern roads in rates on all kinds Of
merchandise and commodities. Scarcely
a week passes that the rates are not given
a twist upward, and so remunerative are
the rates now that, with a large decreased
tonnage, the earnings are far in excess of
what they have been during the previous
three years Of prosperity.
While operating expenses on most
roads have increased from 10 to is per
cent, the rates have been advanced sall
the way from 20 to- SO per cent, and in
some instances the advance is fully 100
per cent.
The injunctions issued by the United
States courts against rate cutting have
caused a strict maintenance of rates and
the saving of millions Of dollars formerly
paid out to shippers for rebates alone
amounts to far more than the increase in
operating expenses.
-
double tracking or improvements in the
physical conditions of the roads or the
building of necessary extensions will be
stopped on account of the inability of the
roads to earn enough money to undergo
such expense.
Most of the large railroad systems in
the west have during the last year or two
added largely to their capital by issuing
new stocks and bonds for the alleged rea-
son that such improvements have become
an imperative necessity to meet pres
ent requirements, and, few roads pay for
large improvements or extensions out Of
| their earnings. They need all the earnings
they can make to pay large dividends to
the syndicates which control the roads
and to keep UP the price. Of stock.
That the earnings are increasing, and
not falling off as alleged by the railroads.
! is shown by a statement just issued show
ing that gross earnings of all railroads in
the United States which have thus far
issued statements of earnings for Janu-
ary, made gain Of Sc per cent over last
year and 17.7 per cent over 1901. There
are included in these earnings many of
the leading systems, which continue to
show heavier tonnage than last year.
when traffic was unusually large. There
is an increase in earnings on all classes
of roads, the western lines making large
gains over all preceding years, with ex-
cellent prospects for a continuance Of
large earnings.

Opposition TO the proposed advance of

the move. Unless the association lines
are unanimous in the change it is posi-
