SEEK TO ABOLISH
TRANSFER SYSTEM
Minority Shareholders of
City and Suburban.

s. proposition to- abolish the transfer
system is the latest development I'm the
Washington turbulent railway situation
The project affects only the City and
Suburban Railway however, and Is
only JOB an embryo state.
The idea OF abolishiHg the transfer
suggested itself at a meeting last night
OF the minority stockholders Of the road
in the law Office OF Leon TObriuer, 80
John Marshall Place To the distriBu-
ton Of the transfer the shareholder at
trl5uted the poor financial condition OF
the company, on the ground that the
the worst of the zo-caued reciprocal ar
raugement with the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company
VIII Enter Suit.
il was decided 10 institute equity pro-
ceedlugs ia the District Supreme Court,
petitiouiuE the court 10 order the aboI-
zion Of transfers. Ia 0rder 10 do this, 30
would be necessary for the court TO in
strucr the receiver 10 discontinue the
reciprocal arrangement with other
roads.
Minority stockholders maintain that
llelT receipts are cut down fully $1,000
yearly under the present system of ac-
ceptUE and issuing transfers. The new
scheme, IL carried into effect, they be-
IeEer would double the profits. and ia
the course of time free IL from debt.
From the viewpoint Of the minority
shareholders. the connecting lines with
which the City and Suburban has recID-
Tgrll relations have an advantage I'm that
the suburban road carries passengers q
greater distance on transfers than do
other lines -L the city.

Helping a Composer of Music.

Halevy WAS somewhat of pedant
in writing music. He worked very
slowly and deliberately and made hun
dreds of changes before he was sat
listed. When ideas would not come
at his bidding he employed a very
singular means to help his genius
along. A kettle filled with water was
put over fire, and the monotonous
singing of the boiling water acted as
n wonderful stimulant OH his magma
ton. While composing, his brother,
Leon Halevy, was always with him,
doctoring the verses Of the text and
adding and scratching syllables wher-
ever it was necessary. For this reason
he was called text surgeon" among
his friends. Leon Halevy was by no
means preposSessing man. and the
poet Heine is responsible for the fol-
lowing description Of him: "He looks
as if his brother had composed him

Ready Russian Offender.

Count Tolstoy, in cable dispatch to
an American, says that in the Russo
Japanese war he sympathizes neither
with Japan nor Russia, but with the
poor men who have been prevailed on
by their governments to kill one another
against the dictates of their cOnsciences
and their religion.
Isabel Hapgood, the translator OF
many of Tolstoy's books, once visited
the great novelist, and during her visit
he told her story of an ancestor of his.
This ancestor, an army officer, was an
excellent mimic. One day he was MINI
licking the Emperor Paul to group OF
his friends when Paul himself entered,
and for some moments looked on upper
ceived at the antics of the young man.
Tolstoy finally turned, and, beholding
the Emperor, he bowed his head and
was silent.
$50 on, sir" said Paul. Continue
your performance"
The young man hesitated moment,
and then, folding his arms and repro.
ducing every gesture and information OF
his sovereign, he said:
"TOlstoy, you deserve to be degraded,
but remember the thoughtlessness OF
youth, and you are pardoned."
The Gear smiled slightly at this speech
"Well, be it So" he said.
