TRYING TO FIX IT Up.
That Pole-Cutting Episode Still Agi-

New York, Jan. 13.-Negotiations for
a settlement of the Gould-Pennsylva-
mia controversy, which eliminated in
the chopping down of the Western IN
ion telegraph poles along the Pennsyl-
vania railroad lines, have, according to
the Herald, been resumed, and it is
said a common ground has been found
which may lead to the settlement Of
the differences which are alleged to
have primarily grown out of the Gould
plans to reach the Atlantic seaboard.
There has been a long conference at
the Pennsylvania railroad offices in this
city, at which A. J. Cassett, and Sam
uel Rea were present. In the last few
days there had been other conferences
in Philadelphia. These meetings, con-
tinues the Herald, marked the begin
ming of serious consideration of all the
questions at issue.

CREATED A SCARE.
"Penusy" Officials Thought Their Kin
folks Passes Had Been Cut Off

The Pennsylvania railroad has cut
off from its list more than 500 annual
passes formerly issued to members of
the families of officials of the COM
pany. This action has created some
thing like CONSERVATION among hun
dreds of men. who have been accus-
toned to receiving ANIMALS in Decem-
Der, and who looked for them as mat
ter of course. 1t has been the custom
of the company for many years to is
sue annual passes to sons, brothers and
other male relatives of high officials.
These passes were sent out from the
general managers Office. and most of
them were good over all lines east.
Now all is changed The officials of the
auditing, freight and various other de-
partments. who have been getting
passes from the general manager have
been notified that they will receive
transportation only from the vice pres
idents TO whom they renort. 1t is I'M

PENNSYLVANIA COUP.
Said to Have Bought the Chicago
Terminal Railway.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-The Tribune today
says: The Pennsylvania company is
said to have secured control of the Chi
cago Terminal Transfer railroad. Presi-
dent F'aithorn of the latter road says
he has no information on the subject,
but considers the report quite plausible.
Control of the road, he said, might be
purchased without his knowing any
thing about 1t.
The Terminal Transfer road would

COUPLINGS OUT OF REPAIR.
Results in Federal Prosecution
Against the Rock Island.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. 13.-W. G. Por-
South Dakota, has filed in the federal
court a suit instituted by direction of the
attorney general of the United States,
against the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific company, which is charged with
having violated the act of congress of
road companies to equip their cars with
safety couplings which would not endan-
ger the lives of employees.
The car in question was once equipped
with automatic couplings, which, how
ever, were out of repair, necessitating the
between the cars. The railroad company
maintains that when the car was orfgf-
nally equipped with automatic couplings
it had complied with the law The suit
is to determine whether or not railroad
companies are liable if such couplings are
not kept in repair.

pleasure that 1 send you the photograph

with catarrh of the head from the Tina
of their infancy, and nothing seemed to
relieve them until friend advised me
to give them a little Peruna, saying II
would not harm them if it did them no
good. 1 gave them very small doses
and it not only relieved them of their
catarrh but it seemed to build them UP
so they can now Withstand the cold
weather. 1t built up their general sys-
