OPENED IN MARYLAND
Republican Campaign Started by
Fairbanks at Baltimore.

Baltimore, Sept. Ex-senator Chas.
W. Fairbanks was the chief speaker
at Republican mass meeting held in
this city last night. the event being
the formal opening of the Republican
campaign in Maryland. Senator Fair
banks was escorted from Wilmington
to Baltimore by a committee of leading
Republicans. At the Hotel Rennert a
reception was held.
In his speech Senator Fairbanks de-
clared that the losses of Baltimore in
the confiagration of this year were not
so large as those sustained by the city
during the last Democratic administra-
ton as a result of temporary over
throw of Republican principles. He
declared that during the Cleveland ad-
ministration business in this and other
large cities was checked, pay rolls were
reduced and the wage rate dlnlnlSneo-
On the subject of protection he said:
1.-The Republican protective system
is an issue in the pending campaign.
The Democratic party, true to its ira
ditions and policy of hostility to 1t, has
declared protection to be robbery
THE overthrow of Republican poll
cies today must bring similar results
to those that followed their overthrow
in 1892 Strike down the protective
system today and we will eat the bread
of repentance tomorrow

means to touch the nerves of your IN
dustries with paralysis. 1t means loss
of revenue, loss of opportunity which
merchants, manufacturers and WORK
ingmen must all share in some degree
for an indefinite period.
LET us not forget that revolution
in our economic policies means rev.
olution in our industrial and CONNER
cfal conditions. We cannot under

'The instability of the Democratic
party during the last few years gives

of the government. 1t Is continually
shifting its issues. 1t has been grasp

tomorrow. 1t has seemed
to lack confidence in itself.
I'VE should understand that party

affairs of this government which does

President Roosevelt toward Panama,

the presidents timely act the con-
struction of the canal would have been
postponed for years. The country'S

RAILROAD BUILDING IN TEXAS.
Two New Lines Are Planned In
Texas.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-C. L. Tallmadge
has returned from New York where
he completed the financing of a pro-
ject which will give Texas a railway
line through a productive portion of
the state now without transportation
facilities.
The new line will extend south and
little east from Canyon City, Texas,
in the direction of San Antonio, to
which city it probably will eventually
be extended. The Pecos Valley lines
City, but officials of that road deny
that the Santa Fe has any interest in
the projected line. Surveys have been
completed and contracts let for the
construction of $50 miles of the road,
which IS to be built by the Northern
Texas Construction company, organ
lied for this purpose.
1t is understood that the same in
terests have made surveys for a second
Texas line to extend from Ell Paso
east, to be known as the East and
West Texas road. and to cross the
Northern Texas line at some point
south of Canyon City. The Ell Paso
line will connect with the Pecos Val
ley road at Dexter, N. M, in the heart
of the Pecos Valley country. These
two lines, it is stated, will give both
the Pecos Valley and the Panhandle
plains and south plains of Texas ample
transportation facilities.
The Northern Texas line will open
one of the most fertile regions in Texas
ana which is now occupied largely
by eight-sectionN ranchmen. There
are, however, 10000 acres in this sec
ton in cotton cultivation and corn,
wheat, vegetables, milo, maize and In
dian corn are being raised extensive
ly. All of these products now have
to be hauled 100 miles or more to the
railroad
Construction will begin at once on
the Northern Texas line, and by the
time of the completion of the first $50

RAILROAD NEWS.
Outlook for Big Output of Rail
Tonnage.
RaiImakers Will Guarantee a
Price Not Exceeding $28.
DEMAND CONCESSIONS.
Much of Railway Building Will
Be in the West.
Gossip and Matters of Interest
In Railroad Circles

A big rail tonnage for next years de-
livery will soon be let if the various
roads now considering placing orders
for 1905 get the assurances they re-
quire as to prices. There is authority
for the statement that many of the
principal lines have let it be under
stood that they are ready to book for
next year as soon as there is no longer
any doubt as to what the schedule for
the coming year is to be.
This bridge is likely to be crossed by
the railmakerS guaranteeing to the
roads a schedule of $2S a ton, or a re-
duction in price to the schedule pre-
vailing at the time the rails are deliV-
cred. This would be satisfactory, it is
said, to practically all the roads
A tonnage said to be very large is
expected to be let soon after the mem
berS of the rail pool who are now con-
stdering Informally the situation, agree
as to what they shall do. The better
feeling among consumers as to the low
er price schedules on the maih lines of
production except rails makes it easier
for the rail pool to consider the conces-
sions demanded by rail consumers
Among the roads which will soon or
der for next year are the Pennsylvania,
Baltimore and Ohio, the Gould roads,
the New York Central, the Atlantic
Coast Line and its allied lines, the
Rock Island and the Hartman sys-
TENS, the southern lines and the I'LL
nois Central.
Several of the most important rail
are not going to order all
their years quota at once. They will
place a fair percentage of their needs
this fall and then wait for develop
mentS in the traffi situation before fill
ing out their schedules. The roads
know that any changes in the price list
can only be ON a declining scale and
they seem willing to take chances on
not getting their rails as they need
them next year.

INTERESTS COMBINE.
Believed an Alliance Is On Between
w p and G. 6

New York, Sept. 21.-Edwin Haw-
ley's election to the directorate of the
Western Pacific, announced today,
suggests in the minds of many the
likelihood of an alliance between the
Western Pacific and the Colorado
Southern, in which the HaWley inter-
ests are dominant.
No explanation of his election to the
Western Pacific board was given by
Mr.. Hawley. He said he did not care
to say anything about it 1t was point
ed out, however, by interests connected
with the Western Pacific. that the
Denver & Rio Grande reaches Salt
Lake, the terminus of the Western Pa
cific, and that the Denver & Rio
Grande, with the Colorado Southern,
controls the Colorado Midland.
1t was pointed out that the Western
Pacific management, wishing to estab-
lish friendly relations with the Gould
rectory, Edward T. Jeffrey president
of the Denver & Rio Grande. and Ed
win Hawley, the dominant interest in
the Colorado Southern.
In the absence of official informa-
ton Wall street jumped at the conclu-
sion that Mr.. Hawley had identified
himself with the Goulds, following his
cific interests Wall street popularity
believes that the Western Pacific is a
Gould proposition and will so develop
when the enterprise has reached a
more tangible shape than it is in at
present.
The Western Pacific is the new
tranScontinental system, which is gen.
orally supposed to be controlled by
Gould interests. Mr.. Hawley is presi-
dent of the Minneapolis & st. Louis

WATCHING TESTS.
Illinois Central Considering Adopting
Electric Motive Power.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-The Illinois Cen
trail railroad officials will watch with
interest the tests of electric locomo-
tives to be made by the New York
Central within the next two weeks.
Upon the results will depend the sub
stitution of electric motors for steam
power on the lake front
The noise and the dense black smoke
of the soft coal burning engines are
extremely Objectionable and cause
many complaints from tenants of the
new Railway Exchange building and

and assert that for years they have
been considering plans for the substi-
tuition of electricity for steam. If the
electric locomotives being built at the
General Electric works and the Ameri-
can Locomotive plant for tests on the
New York Central prove to be well
adapted for the hauling of large trains
and that company adopts them for the
suburban business, the Illinois Central
proposes to follow suit.
AS soon as the New York Central en-
gines are ready they will be taken to
the ten mile stretch of tract which has
been prepared near Amsterdam, and
for several days the tests will proceed.
During the speed tests it is hoped to
attain maximum of rs miles an hour,
although in the hauling of heavy trains
between 60 and 65 miles an hour proba-
bly, will be the limit.
