GEO. H. DANIELS TALK.
Says the Clerks Who Work Faithfully

Aspiring young men employed by
railways were given some good ad,
vice by George II. Daniels, general
passenger agent of the New York
Central, recently. He advised them
TO do faithfully the work assigned
and put aside the thought that because
they at present were filling minor pos.
itions there was no chance to dis
tinguish themselves. "If you are do
ing faithfully the work assigned to
YOU advised Mr.. Daniels. whatever
1t may be, you day by day are laying
the foundation for a better place, and
will reach 1t as sure as the days con

Der: .Despise not the day OF small

so many years president Of the Chi

his railroad carer as a telegraph opera

up from section foreman on the
Burlington to be its general manager
and afterwards president OF the Union
Pacific. Charles NJ. Hayes, vice-presi-
dent and general manager Of the
Grand Trunk railway, was q stem

the lowest positions IN the operating
departments OF railways until they

On San Pablo Point, San Francisco.
where a wharf Of a thousand feet IN
length pushes into the waters Of the
bay, the Santa Fe company has Sc
cured a terminal which Is expected 70
be the principal shipping point on THIS
coast. II was by acquiring the right
to operate the Richmond Belt railroad
that the Santa Fe obtained a wharf at
which deep water vessels may load
and discharge. The operating of the
new belt railroad was given into the
hands of the Santa Fe company last
Saturday, and is the first step in a
gigantic scheme by which the railroad
officials hope to establish a shipping
center from which grain and manu-.
featured products may be sent direct
by land and sea to all parts Of the
world.

January Show;nqs Bad.

One Of the high officials of the San
ia Fe says that railroad earnings all
over the country in January will prob
ably show a decrease, largely because
of the cold weather, which disabled
motive power to a degree to largely
interfere with transportation. Some
of the western roads are going to show
the effect OF the coal strike in Colora-
do. He says, however, that the bust
ness in sight is something enormous
and that the railroads will have all the
business they can handle for some
months to come. Santa Fe officials are
looking forward to a very prosperous
year. California crops are looking fine
and indications point to a record
breaking business from California In
consequence. This Is a very favorable
factor for the Atchison. as Its trans
continental business is the most profit
able the road has to handle.
