ME Stead Brings Out a New Paper
 For London Women.

The first issue of William T. Stead s paper for women has made its appear ance in London. It Is daily, devoted to womens news, with some attention paid to society Mir. Stead has begun a series of what is called social inquests,' and | has brought out that out of a population of 15s,0Oo at Paddington, 31,OO0 went to church, while 122,0O0 went to the saloon.
 He is evidently seeking to arouse the co-operations of women in his crusades, for a paper conducted on such lines should be widely read by London women, who a class find crusades more exciting and interesting than do the women of America. The English woman has al ways taken an active part in politics, and there are various organizations of women in Great Britain which are mani festing the keenest interest in the ap- preaching general elections
 Sir Gilbert Parker had recent letter in the London Times urging the women to rally to the support of the feminine annex to the Tariff Reform League, the protectonalist organization. It is said that MT. Chamberlain already realizes
 
 against him. Where women are as ae- tive in politics as they are in England, 1 the papers must have large clientele of women readers, and MT Stead must feel confident of reaching the intelligent class.
 | According to a London letter Mr. Stead, in his prospectus. issued some weeks ago, said:
 T hope not only to produce a paper that will be good in itself. but at the same time create an organization among its subscribers for mutual purposes of cooperation I think If I could manage to get two hundred thousand subscribers in London, to whom l could deliver the paper at their own doors just at the time when the man has gone to business and women and children of the household have an opportunity of reading it, great results might be obtained
 The subscription will be one shilling per month, or half guinea per year. The messengers, who will be bright young girls, will be instructed to collect from each subscriber letters. complaints or ad- vertisements in envelopes addressed to the editor, and in this way I hope to get in personal touch with all my readers.
 Twenty depots, in time to be increased to sixty, will be established at various points in the city, at each of which expect 10 have a 'poste restante.' which sort of thing does not exist in London now; free telephone, circulating libra ", reading room, or place of call and. hope, an automatic restaurant
 As to it's contents, there will be se- rial on the basis of an endless story which will be based on events in the days news. One page will be set aside for children.
 'As to editorials, there will be column of occasional notes About foreign news shall not worry much at first. l want to localize the paper. There will be four editions, all published at the same hour"

ImperlIed Hundreds of Lives.

New York, January 1.-Two incendiary fires early today imperilled the lives of hundreds of persons living in tenement houses at Seventh avenue and Thirty first street. In one of the tenement build ings the tenants extingushed the flames in the basement with snow but the flames in the other place got such headway that the firemen had to carry fifty half-frozen capes.
 A man, said to have been seen emerg- ing from the basement, was captured by the police and is alleged to have fired both buildings. He was arrested two weeks ago at the scene of a tenement fire in another quarter, but was released after an examination as to his sanity

 The November gross earnings of Sea- board shows an increase of per cent and the November net an increase of 14 per cent, while the five months gross shows an increase of 21a per cent, the expenses and taxes have increased per cent so that the five months net shows a de- crease of per cent.
 The increase In the November net and gross is the first fruit of the campaign for developing the oyster, fish and phosphate production of Alabama ana Florida inaug- urated by Chairman John Skelton Will liams
 In addition to these products the road carried more Florida fruits in November ten years ago.
 While not a heavy carrier of cotton the Seaboard traffic in this commodity fc- November was the greatest for the past five years
 The management is constantly expen6- ing large sums of money on the property with the hope of increasing the traffic facilities and thus swelling the gross and net returns.
 In few months the Birmingham exten- sion will be completed and Seaboard will become a large carrier or iron, steel and allied products
 The management proposes to relay the entire system with heavy rails and install high class operating equipment.

RAILROAD WORLD.

The seaboard Air Line Railway com pany intends to relay the entire system with heavy rails and to install high-class | operating equipment.
 President B. F. Yoakum of the Frisco announces that the system will soon open two new lines into St. Louis. The St. Louis, Memphis and Southeastern will be ready for operation into and out of St. Louis by March l. The St. Louis extension of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois will be opened for traffic by April 15 in ample time for the worlds fair and establish ing another St Louls-C Chicago line. It is announced that the Illinois Central railroad and the Tennessee Central rail- road in all probability will operate a through passenger service between Louis- vile and Nashville. as q competitor of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. The distance from Louisville to Nashville via the Illinois Central-Tennessee Central route is 29S miles, or III miles longer than via the Louisville and Nashville. 't%''a St. Louis house of delegates in passing an ordinance prohibiting brokers from deal ing in mileage, communication, excursion or other form of transferable tickets will have a great effect upon the St. Louis worlds fair rate question.
 The recent decision of the United States circuit court of appeal in sustaining Judge Grosseups' decision that railroads troops in party rates, is said to be gen eral victory for the railroads of the coun- try. For many years the question has been in dispute between the comptroller of the treasury and the roads.
 The roads were at one time on the verge Of submitting to the terms of the gov ernment, but finally decided to test the matter in the courts. When he case came up for hearing, 1t being instituted by the Chicago and Northwestern, counsel for the government contended that the rail- way companies in refusing to grant party rates to soldiers discriminated unjustly and violated the interstate commerce law. This was not sustained.
