WHAT DID VENEER GET?
Denied That Rock Island Was Forced
to Pay Him $4,000

President Loree of the Rock Island,
denies that c. H. Venner was paid
$4,000 a share for his 100 shares of Rock
Island stock, a total of $500. 600. James
Hamilton Lewis of Chicago, Nenner' )
attorneys, is said to have received $25.-
600; John S. Miller, representing the
Iowa corporation of the Rock Island,
500 and John ]. Herrick of Chicago,
representing the Central Trust COM
pany of New York, $12, 800
The appeal from Judge DUNES or
der has been dismissed and the order
vacated by stipulation and the equity
suit before Judge Grosscup has been
dismissed. In his equity bill Venner
made sensational charges and the suit
to be for matchmaking purposes. The
allegations showed that the stock of
the railway company amounted to
$4,000, 600, the stock of the railroad
company to 1925 900. 600 and that of the
Rock Island company of New Jersey
to 150,000,000. Venner claimed that
through the organization of the two
new companies the Moores and their
associates were attempting, in lieu IF
SIS, 900 of stock representing the
Rock Island property values when they
secured control of the company, to
float on the market securities aggre-
eating a par value of $2O2 SOC, 900.
According to the bill the original
Rock Island stock was worth 5000 a
share, or a total of $3.50 900, 900, and
therefore the Moores We're charged
with injecting at least $50 100000 of
water into the company's assests.

BONE OF CONTENTION.
Peter Mcdonnell Makes Trouble for
Railroad Immigration Agents.

Chicago, April 14.-After a stormy
meeting the Western Passenger ASA
citation temporarily tabled the subject
of the employment of Peter Mcdonnell
as an agent of the immigrant bureau.
It appears that the Union Pacific took
upon itself the right to employ Nc
Donnell, and the statement was made
today that it was done with a view
to dividing all of the McDonnell's bus
mess according to agreed percentages
among the lines. Passenger represan-
tatives of the other lines were greatly
incensed at the action taken by the
Union Pacific, and were in favor Of
passing a resolution disappearing it.
All efforts to get from the Union Pa
cific their reasons for securing Nc
DonnelIs services proved futile.

Red sKIRTs BARRED.
Women Who Walk ON Right of Way
Must Dress Properly.

The statement is going the rounds of
the press that the Pennsylvania rail-
road has forbidden women wearing red
skirts from trespassing on the right
of way. An official is quoted as say
ing: Red skirts have stopped fast
trains. Italian women gathering coal
along the line, when the harvest was
good. pulled off their red skirts AMI
tagged both freights and flyers. AL
women wearing red skirts found on
the line of the company viii be SUM-
have been instructed to try to keep
the offenders off the line.'' This is ev-
identity a covert blow at the red flag
of anarchy. 1t reminds one of the old
story of the goat which, having de-
voured its owners washing on the line,
was condemned to death and chained
to the railroad track to be run over;
but had the presence of mind to cough
up a red flannel shirt and thus flag
the train. Goats should be prohibited,
as well as Italian women.

CALIFORNIA PASSENGERS.
Statistics From Coast Lines Show a
Big March Business.

Los Angeles. Cal. April 14.-Figures
compiled by the general passenger
agent of the Santa Fe show an enor-
nous increase in west bound passen-
ger travel for the month Of March over
that of the same month of 1903. The
company brought $3.50 passengers to
California during the thirty-one days
of last month. For the same period
last year the number was 1888. This
includes both first and second class
passengers.
The Santa Fe has improved its ser
vice during the past year and has also
advertised California extensively
throughout the east. The showing is
a source of great satisfaction to Off
cials of the company. That the passen-
ger business is almost doubled in a
year is proof of the strong bid now
being made by the Santa F'e for Cali
fornia traffic.
Officials of the company state that
as soon as satisfactory arrangements
can be made, and the financial condi-
tiop of the country will warrant the
expenditure, work will be commenced
on the cutoff in New Mexico, which
will bring Chicago and Los angeles
nearer by ST. miles.

Device by Which Engine Is Auto
maticalIy Brought to StandstiH.
The use of a glass rod or pipe in
connection with the air-brake system
of a train, in such a way that the rod
VIII be broken by a projecting arm OF
lever in case the engineman should at
tempt to run past a signal set in the
stop position, is an old idea advanced
or experimental with quite a number
of years ago. The breaking of the
glass would effect the escape of the
air and set the brakes. The Barberie
system, which employs the glass pipe
and is designed somewhat on these
principles, was recently exhibited by
models in New York city. At the side
OF the track, a desired distance in al-
vance of the home signal, there is a
dwarf Semaphore, the movements of
which correspond with those of the
home signal From the side of the To-
connective there is piece of glass pipe
hanging downward, in such a position
that it will strike the dwarf sema-
phore. when that signal is set in tie
stop position, and be broken The I'M
mediate effect is to bring into play in
the cab a steam mechanism which
shuts the throttle, locks it, applies the
air brakes and finally deposits sand on
the track. Only after the train has
stopped can the engineer unlock the
throttle, and he must first adjust a
fresh glass rod in place of the broken
one. The apparatus is so designed that
if the engineman, having his train IN
der control, wishes to do so, he can
prevent the smashing of the glass -od.
and run slowly to the home signal To
keep the rod from hitting the dwarf
semaphore, he manipulateS a mechan-
ism in the cab which shifts the posi-
ton of the ''destructible member" and
saves it from injury. When he does
so, a. record of the time is made auto
