The duties of a train dispatcher are
probably more trying than any other
railroad position. Some years ago
President Ledyard of the Michigan
Central remarked:
ct wonder why it is that all our tram
dispatchers are gray y-bearded-eVeh
those under 50 years OF age A divls-
ion superintendent who was with the
PARTY and who had himself been pro-
NOTED from a dispatcher replied
Mr.. Presidet, | think that If there
is anything calculated 10 encourage
gray hairs it is TO sit over train sheets
for eight consecutive hours and deal
out train orders and do the other nee
essary work incumbent OH the posi-
tion. The Dispatcher is practically
the sponsor for every railroad man on
his division
In case of a wreck he has to know
foreman, how to reach him with
message and about how many ties
and rails are on the section. Also
at what particular point this material
is piled up. If the accident happens
at night the dispatcher must know
what telegraphers can be depended
on to execute his orders promptly.
Some night operators get 'doZy' after
midnight and it would be considered
poor policy to put out an order at their
station. as a serious delay might oc-
cur.
Must Know Operators Ways.
"The train dispatcher is the only
official who knows the peculiarities Or
the operators along the line and has
to be governed accordingly. Il would
naturally be thought thar dispatcher

of steamers reported in the papers to
have been chartered to bring provis-
ions to Port Arthur. many OF which
boats fell into the hands of the Japan
ese, it is evident that there could not
have been very much beyond the ordl-
nary supply regularly kept in the
place. At the time of the Boxer scare
the Russians had only 1000 men in
Port Arthur; then, of course, the for
tifications were not completed. 1t was
from Chifu that the Russians obtained
their vegetables, cattle, and the ponies
on which the ordinary Cossack is
mounted This source of supplies has
now been cut off.
1t was a strange thing that Gins
berg, the naval contractor to the Rus
sian fleet, should get one of the hrst
shells in his stores on the Bund, and
that the Russian bank should have
Jared similarly. This clearly shows
how accurate was the information the
japanese had of Port Arthur, and how
well they used that information in di-
recting their fire. Had the mining de-
partnent of the railway had fair play
and proper machinery, their mines at
Matchmaker and Mochisan would have
proved themselves invaluable during
the war. The Russians transport their
stores in two-horsed carts with two
wheels; and the horsing of these carts
constitutes a great difficulty. Doubtless
they and the Japanese will in time use
the mule of the country for transport
purposes. The British Indian govern
ment during the Boxer trouble bought
very considerable number OF these
mules, and found them must useful.
The Russians also largely used them
on their advance from Newchwang to
Mukden during the Boxer trouble. 1t
will, however, be the feeding and horsins
of the field batteries that will give the
authorities the most anxiety.
OF only one thing have we any assur-
ance that Port Arthur is we'll sup

che supply of ammunition for the guns,
both big and little, is short, that the food
supply is inadequate for any protracted
siege, and that it cannot be replaced

boats to reach that port just previous to

Last summer Mr.. Bachelor was one
of party staying at Uncle Pills camp,
the little shanty high up in the woods,
far from any other campfire or frying
pan. Be it known that Uncle Phil-who,
like true Adirondack guide, is proud Of
his skill as cook, Unfortunately proud Of
his pancakes-overheard one of the
ladies that had stopped overnight criti-
else the cakes of the previous evening.
This, of course, was intolerable, and

eating almost the same food; so that for
much of his supplies he will not have to
fall back on his base in Japan, but can
collect from the friendly native.
The system of transporting supplies
from Japan is most perfect. All sup
plies are done up in packages covered III
mating, of size that can easily be lifted
by two men, There is therefore no
wastage, and the difficulty OF transit Is
reduced to a minimum. These packages
are put on steamers, then transferred TO
smaller tugs, of which the Japs nave
plenty and the Russians none, then from
the tugs to the small boats, where again
the Japanese surpasses the Russian, as
he is born boatman. For this reason
the Japs seized the waterway to Tlentsin
in 1900, whereas the Russians seized the
railway; and it is beyond doubt that
the Japs will use the waterway from
Newchwang to Mukden as a means OF
transport during this, as well as in the
China-Japan war. The Japs, on the
other hand, having command of the
sea, bring their wood from Japan in
small bundles, as they did in the time
of the Boxer troubles.
From the shore, on which, owing to
their light-draught steamers and small
boats, they can land with considerable
facility at many points, their supplies
are transported to bases in light carts.
most adaptable to the country they will
have to fight in. These vehicles are
in strong contrast to the heavy Russian
cart The weak point in the Japanese
cart is that they are set too low, but
doubtless this was seen during 1900, and
has been remedied. Again, the Russians
have no corps of transport-men other
than the Cossack, whereas the Japanese

These men were tried by the British
generals in Tientsin, but were found to
be failures. as with foreigners they were
mutinous, not being at all amenable to
foreign discipline. There can be no
doubt that Japan, in both her supply
and transport, is as well found and
equipped as it is possible for her to
be. Japan's arrangements were beyond
praise during the Boxer trouble; and
doubtless there will be many surprises.

Russia has nothing in order and can

country for supplies or transport; hence
