DOCTOR RECOMMENDS THEM.
Hospital Cars Save Money for Rail
roads Nowadays.

At the meeting of the New York City
Medical society, DR.. VIM. W. Sanford
read a paper on THE Hospital Car:
Its Equipment, Uses, and Importance"
DIT Sanford said that when the plan
OF having such a car was suggested to
the Erie railroad officials. a combina-
ton baggage car and smoker was Sc
lected for the purpose. By removing
the double row of seats sufficient room
was secured for six ordinary hospital
beds supplied with mattress and rub
Der sheets. In the baggage compart-
ment were operating table, sterilizers,
oxygen, drugs, etc. Such a car would
prove to be almost invaluable The
hospital car, and this he believed
should serve as type of several cars
which should be distributed at certain
distances along the roads. He then
gave the details of the interior arrange
ment of such cars, which would be of
great value to the companies, as we'll
as to the injured, because Of % saving
of valuable time, (2) bringing to their
aid a sufficient number of physicians
and nurses, 80 equipment being always.
at hand. He believed that at present
the large number of deaths from rail
way injuries was due TO lack of i'm
mediate surgical and medical treat
ment, the lack of facilities for treating
these patients, and the lack of time.
The need of such cars seemed to him
imperative.
DR.. Andrew H. Smith referred to the
diminished liabilities of the companies
from the results of accidents, and
stated that things were different today
from what they were a few years ago,
when the life of man was cOnSid-
cred to be equivalent to $1,000 Then
the companies were in pocket if the
people were killed outright; if then
they were injured and not killed there
was scarcely any limit to the amount
of damages claimed. Today life was
estimated by the earning capacity of
the individual In case an accident
takes place and the company had made
no provision for the care of the injured
he said the sympathy of the juries
would be against the company; but if
such cars as suggested were provided
sympathy would change in favor of the
company.

COMPLICATED FINANCES.
S. P. Mortgage Refunding Scheme Is
Being Worked Out.

New York March 11.-Bankers who have
assumed the financial guardianship of the
Hartman railroad system have, accord
ing to the Herald, taken up for serious
unifying the funded debt of the Southern
Pacific system It has been generally
known for a long time that some compre-
henS1Ve plan must be prepared in order
to refund bonds which mature in 1905.
The matter has been discussed in
formally by directors of the company and
various plans have been suggested. The
work of constructing a refunding mort
gage estimated at 800 600 600 and S3OO 900 :
the first time, but it is not expected that
the plan will be completed for several
months.
So intricate are the finances of the
Southern Pacific, owing to diversity of its
holdings that it has been doubted whether
any comprehensive plan for unifying the
debts of the various companies in the
system could be devised without the Gre
alton or an entirely new corporation
Those who have undertaken the soIu-
ton OF the problem believe it can be
reached. however. without altering the
character of the Southern Pacific's hold
ings Of any of its properties or originat-
ing any new device for welding together
the debts OF the constituent companies.
The frame upon which the great plan
will depend will be a general refunding
mortgage The amount viii depend who'll
~ upon how much of the debt of the sys-
tenn which aggregate ties 1855, Bis. 419, can be
included in any refunding mortgage, how
ever broad in its scope
Debts of some properties which should
be included in the refunding scheme are
held by ownership stock. Others are held
by lease. Some of the operating COM
panies are owned by other operating COM
panies, and some are held directly by
the Southern Pacific company, which is
a Kentucky corporation. 1t IS difficult in
some instances to carry out the plan OF
harmonizing and unifying the system
without coming into conflict with state
laws.
It is on account of the difficulties pre-
sented by this complicated situation that
the work has been started we'll in advance
of the time for its inauguration.

Will Handle Groceries and Meat
at the Start.

Expect a Membership of About
1000.
Cooperative Stores Succeed in
Railroad Towns.

katy shopmen at Parsons to the
number of $50 have started a co-opera-
tive grocery and meat store by means
Ct which they expect to supply them
selves with goods at much less than
the current market prices.
The store is organized on the Roche
dale plan, and promises to become one
of the strongest of it's kind in the state.
1t is in charge of L N. Davis. who
for some time has been running an in
dependent lumber yard at Parsons.
The organization was made by Alonzo
Wardal. the Topeka promoter of the
Rochedale system
Mr.. Wardau is very sanguine for the
success of his railroad store. He said
after completing the preliminary or
ganization of the store:
There are 1 200 men employed in the
NJ h & T shops at Parsons and the
people who went into this Roehedale
plan are confident that within a short
time nearly every one OF these /. 200
shopmen Will be trading at the Roche
dale store. The store viii save them
money.
we organized this store by buying
out the stock of an existing grocery
and meat market and recognizing the
concern as a Rochedala store. The
plan is to enlarge the store before long
and include all departments of mer-
chandising in its line. 1t will handle
dry goods, clothing, hardware, and all
kinds of staples We expect the store
to DO a good business from the start
Mr.. WardalI is very enthusiastic over
the organization of cooperative stores
IN railroad towns. He thinks that rail
road shOomen are inclined to stand to-
gether and support such an enterprise
better than some people, and he has
organized cooperative stores similar to
the one at Parsons in several Kansas
railroad towns

soALPERs ARE SCARED.
Preparing to Make Fight Against
St Louis Law.

The ticket scalpers fear that if the
present injunction is sustained it will
serve as a model upon which future
hostile legislation will be built.
An example of the uneasiness felt by
the ticket brokers is shown by a circu-
lar which has been sent out. 1t is as
follows:
To All Ticket Brokers in the United
The railroad lines in the W. P. A. and
S. w P A, centering in st. Louis have
succeeded in securing a temporary in
junction restraining US from buying.
selling, dealing in or soliciting the pur-
chase or sale of mileage books, excur-
sion tickets and all forms of non-trans-
ferable tickets sold at reduced rates, in
Guiding communication tickets, drovers'
tickets; in fact, a very sweeping in
junction covering tickets already issued
and those that will be issued. In fact.
this is the most sweeping injunction
ever issued against brokers, because it
includes our every day stock and trade,
and what has happened here will likely
happen in your city The life of the
business is at stake and we would sug-
gest that a fight to the finish be made
on the temporary injunction already is
sued against US, and that this fight be
made right here in st. Louis. and, if we
win here, no doubt they will not carry
it into your territory. If we lose here
they will go to your territory and get
the same Injunction which they have
gotten here.
Now we deem it absolutely necessary
to either call a convention of all the
ticket brokers now doing business in
the United States, or, If you cannot
spare the time to come to this cOnven-
ton, to send a contribution of at least
so cents at once to some bank or indi-
vidual hereafter to be agreed upon by
the brokers at large. This convention
should be held Immediately, and all
brokers that have the interest of the
business at heart and at stake should
either be represented by person or by
sending the above amount so as to en-
able US to take united action with the
best legal talent obtainable. We should
not spare any expense in obtaining such
attorneys that have led US to victory il
previous fights.
Please advise Simon Steiner, treasurer
of the st. Louis ticket brokers, either
by wire or by letter what, in your opin-
ion, would be the best course to pursue
and if you are willing to help us in this
fight as per the above suggestion. Ou1
time is short and immediate action is
necessary, or otherwise you, as we'll as
ourselves, will lose the benefit of the
entire summer excursion business. Re
spectfully,

the last five years has been wisely ex-

In conclusion, I must say that when
you consider the size, location and i'm
portance of these forts, your committee
will, 1 believe, conclude that the money
which has been used in improving a 10

wisely but properly and judiciously ex-
pended
The efforts at this time to consolidate
these two forts recall the question
which was raised in congress five or six
years ago looking toward their consol1-

1t is impossible to tell at this time
what action the committee Will nnally
recommend to congress in the matter.

there will be no reduction in the regu-

will be continued as in the past As TO

RICH STRIKE.
Topeka Company Gets Sensational
Results at Thunder Mountain.

The following from the Idaho Daily
Statesman refers 10 the Thunder
Mountain mine which is owned by To-
peka people:
]. B. Eldredge. manager of the IN
dependence mine at Big creek, got
sensational assay yesterday from ore
taken out of the old tunnel on the
property. It returned $233.32 a ton in
gold and $77S.4S in silver, a total OF
s., 011.S0.
This was a sample of three feet OF
ore opened up by a cut on the hanging
wall of the ledge above where the new
tunnel will reach that side of the vein
Mr.. Eldredge knew there was a good
shoot of ore there but had no idea II
was so rich. He had the streak sam
pied to determine its value and was
astonished at the result.
