Railroad In. and outs.

It is estimated that labor receives
II per cent OF the gross earnings OF
American railways. Fuel and oil abb
sorb about 8 per cent. When one stops
to consider the original cost, the In
cessant expense for new equipment,
the wear and tear, taxes, insurance,
extensions, etc, it is easy to under
stand how it is necessary to have
enormous gross earnings IL dividends
are to have any show at all. The rail.
roads earn annually, in round figures,
says the Railroad Record, 100000,
600, while the dividends average only
80 on the invested capital; a capital

Care Of Farm, Machinery.

Many farmers are very careless OF
their farm machinery. 1t is a common
thing to see plows, harrows, cult
vators, moving machines and even
binders standing in the field for
months without any protection from
the clements. The direct loss from
such exposure is very great. 1t
amounts to more than the use in al
most every instance.
The greatest item perhaps is in lo~'
Of time when the machine is required
for use next time. Farmers who are
careless enough to leave implements
In the field are almost invariably care
less about the belongings Of such i'm
plements. Furthermore, such men are
surrounded with help that pattern
after the master in this respect. There
are always shiftless characters in the
neighborhood, and they seldom hest
tate to appropriate any loose article
belonging to these neglected machines.
and it Is only natural that they should
neglect to return these things. -
The loss from rust and decay, al
though considerable, is less than the
annoyance and time required to get
the different implements back into
condition the following season.-Farm

NEW TRADE
Proposals Of the German Government
to be Submitted to the President.

Berlin. October 30.-Baron Speck
Won Sternberg. the German ambassa-
dor to the United States. who sailed
for New York October 25th from
Bremen. on the North German Lloyd
steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II. will on his
arrival at Washington this week pre-
sent to President Roosevelt the pro-
posals of the German government for
a new trade agreement between the
United States and Germany.
The imperial chancellor. Prince Won
Buelow. would not define Germany's
attitude with some precision. Among
other things he said:
can idea I suspect. is abroad in
America that the changes in the Ger
man tariffs. and the modifying agree
ments with other European countries
were in some way directed against the
United States and that Germany de-
sired to damage the trade of the Unit
ed States. This I am glad to say a
never a motive with the German gov
eminent and the proposals that are
able to be made are designed to in
crease h exchanges between the two
countries and lot to contract them.
Germany is as little inclined to
shape its policy according to rigid
dogma. as the United States. We de-
sire to promote the interests of our
country and act in consideration of its
economic needs"

THE SQUABBLE IN CHARLOTTE
Conflict of Authority Between Mayor
and RecOrder-The Police in a
Pickle.

AS a result Of orders issued by May
or S. S. McNinch last night to the
members of the police force, warning
them that any officer attempting to
close up any gaming stand on the fair
grounds to which he had granted per-
mission to operate would be summarily
dismissed from service, the dice tables
ring stands and other chance games
which in the opinion Of the mayor Were
fair were in full blast today and did a
land office business. The police did
not attempt to interfere, although they
were under instructions from Recorder
ShannonhouSe to close up all chance
games.
Mayor McNinch issued this order at
teh consultation with the city attorney,
Mr.. Hugh W. Harris. Recorder Shan
nonhouse has informed the police that
after the regular Monday morning oath
taking when all police officers are re-
quired to swear that they have known
of no gambling during the past week,
he will indict them for perjury.
When seen by a press representative
today Mr.. Shannonhouse declined to
make my statement.
There We're large crowds here at the
fair grounds during the afternoon and

tied.
Public sentiment seems to be over

from the court DON what the testi-
mony OF witnesses was. Abercombie
SAID he was trying to clear Smiths
memory from the allegation that he
was a thief who was arrested here.
A. NJ. Smith, of Washington, a brother

friend to find the murderer and see il

AbercOmbie said the attorneys for the

cutting Clark and Lilleston. Abercom-
bic had been permitted to talk with
LillestOn because the latter's counsel
concluded LillestOn was not guilty, and
that A. NJ. Smith so thought also.
Justice Badger said there was not
enough evidence to hold Abercombie
for contempt, but that he had been in
discreet.
A number of witnesses were examin-
ed concerning this murder. George H.
Epple. a Norfolk detective, and w. NJ.

left, swearing he would kill him, re-
peating this threat twice the day of the
killing.

shot entirely in self defense. A Ra-
leigh student named Wilkins swore
that when Clark shot, Lilleston jump

coat. This hearing is as to Lilleston
