Some Advice
To Railroad Men

This Is what II. l.. Magee of st.
Louis, general superintendent Of the
Wabash railway, said as he sat In his
private car at the union depot in Kan

window towards the Burlington
tracks, he said: More than twenty
five years ago | superintendent the

Old Tom Corrigan was the contrac-

Il do not care what line Of business

said, "If he applies himself properly
he will become valuable to his en-
ployer. There Is room at the top for
everyone. Grumbling about a present
position will do no good. Dig in and
do the work-not the routine work,
but look ahead where you can do a
little more; reach out and learn more.
1t is a policy which will take any
young man to the front. The rail
roads want such men and the rail.

PRINTING TELEGRAPH.

The printing telegraph, or telautograph.
which was SO enthusiastically advocated
several years ago as an adjunct Of office
equipment, for the transmission of written
orders, and other business requiring a rec
ord, has blossomed forth in Berlin as a
reality. The German post Office depart
ment. which controls the telephone and
telegraph facilities as well. is said to have
contracted with a concern known as the
Ferndrucker Company, giving the latter
the use Of It's wires for the conduct of such
a business.
An outfit is rented from this company at
a given rate per annum, which gives the
subscriber the privilege Of communicating

ACCIDENT ON THE B. AND o.
Duquesne Limited Strikes Derailed
Freight Cars-No One Hurt.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CUMBERLAND, Md, January THE
Duquesne limited east-bound, the same
train that was wrecked at Laurel Run De-
cember % with big loss of life, met with a
mishap at North Branch, on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, about four miles below
here. shortly after midnight this morning.
The train was moving about forty miles
an hour. and while passing a freight going
in the same direction on third track two
cars Of the latter became derailed and the
Duauesne sidewiped them.
1t was after the Duquesne engine passed
the caboose attached to the freight that the
cars of the latter were derailed. All the
steps were torn off the right side of the
train, but other than that there was little
damage. The engine was somewhat broken,
but, fortuna tely, in striking the dera1led cars
the air hose on the front of the engine was
broken and the emergency brakes We're
voluntarily thrown on. Engineer A. W.
Zepp had narrow escape.
One of the derailed cars was loaded with
lampblack, and when struck the powdered
substance was scattered in all directions
and the faces of passengers and all were
made almost as black as the SCOT itself
The limited train was at once backed into
Cumberland, and three company doctors
were on hand. only to be advised that no
one had the slightest scratch. The passen-
gers were transferred to train NO. III, Wmch
left here about 2:3O a. m, so very little
time was lost.
There was a similarity in the cause OF
the two accidents to the same train, just
two weeks apart. the Duquesne ilmltea, at
Laurel Run striking timbers that fell from
a passing freight on the track, while last
night 1t struck a derailed car, but results
were entirely different.

The American Sporting Spirit.

From Outing.
You cannot wholly eradicate an Ameri-

which will cause him to close up his roller

his sporting page he follows the home team

average is not too hopeless. his sluggish
sporting blood will begin to flow again, and
he yearns for the sharp crack of the bat as
1t lines out a boundary hit And so he hangs
up his black alpaca coat, and, having given
his secretary permission to sign his dictated
letters. he takes the car marked ITO the

again. He sits on a hard bench or an
equally hard cushion, and If the weather
gives him any excuse at all he takes off his
coat and unbuttons his collar, borrows a
light for his cigar from his neighbor, and
then roots" for the home team. And when
it is all over. and he has prayed and sworn
and howled with the best Of them, he goes
home very happy. and wonders why he
does not more often spend an afternoon in
the open air and see the game as it really
is, instead Of getting it secondhand from
his sporting extra.

AGAINST THE MERGER
ARGUMENT ON MINNESOTA'S
CASE BEGUN.
Attorney General Douglas Of That
State Addresses the Supreme
Court at Length.

The argument of the case of the state OF
Minnesota agt. the Northern Securities
Company. involving the legality of the con-
solidation of the Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern railroads in the securities
company, was begun in the United States
Supreme Court today.
The case involves the same general issues
as are involved in the proceeding of the ma
tional government against the securities
company, but there are some differences of
law governing it. w. s. Douglas, attorney
general of the state of Minnesota, and NJ
d. Mum appeared for the state, and George
b. Young and John G. Thompson for the
securities company.
Attorney General Douglas made the open
ing statement. combining himself largely to
the facts in the case. He said that the case
involved principally the constitutionality
Of state laws and added that in addition to
Incorporating the evidence taken In the fed
eral case, the state had added testimony
company and also concerning the result of
its acts. Outlining the differences present
ed by this case from those of the federal
case, he said that these were found.
Points of Difference.
First in the fact that the organize ton of
the securities company and the purchase of
the two railroad lines is violation of the
state law of 1874. prohibiting the consolida-
tion of railroad lines in the state; second,
the consolidation violates the state anti
trust law; third, that the transaction In
wolves the proprietary interests of the state,
and fourth. that it operates to violate the
common law as we'll as the Minnesota
Statutes
With reference to the purpose and effect
Of the union of the two roads he contended
that 1t was to violate the state law and
create a monopoly; that this had been &C
oomplished in the northern part of the
state, and he urged that the state had q
right to prohibit such monopoly although
undertaken by nonresident of the state.

Wrestling Revival.
rom the London Chronicle.


A great revival of wrestling has taken
place in England recently, and though the
art is abundantly cultivated in the north
and in the west, 1t Is to foreigners that the
chief interest of the present competitions is
due. Far otherwise Is it in Japan, where
wrestling has been practiced for centuries.
and has indeed produced a race of men
who in stature. and especially weight. are
extraordinarily unlike the average Japan
ese. Ii is reported from the far east that
the ceremony of comforting the rank of
''Yokozura" connecting like varsity
"blue') on the two famous wrestlers,
Hitachiyana and Umegatani, by Mr..
Yoshida, whose family stands at the head
OF the wrestling clan, has just taken place.
The two champions wore the undress usual
in the sawdust arena and received the or
namental rope from Mr.. Yoshida before tla
shrine OF q deity Of wrestling.
