The Trolley Line

The history of the proposed
trolley line, from this city to
Morgan City, is possibly still
fresh in the minds Of the readers
of this joufnal/ Gen'I F. F..
Myles took hold Of this enterprise
as pioneer in the field and it is
lastlngIy to Ns credit that he
prepared nuch of the ground for
the success of any future effort in
this direction. He had surveys
made, secured rights of way. and
bad special legislation through the
legislature fostering his efforts.
1t is unfortunate for his Interests
that his failing health compelled
him to retire from the activa pro
motion of the enterprise and com
PEELED the forfeiture of his bond to
the parish before he succeeded in
financing the scheme.
To the efforts made by Gen'l
Myles is due the thorough and
general interest of the people of
this entire section in the scheme.
No proposition could have been
more favorably received and had
the road been built, it would have
been a success, as business prop
osition, from the Inauguration of
its service
The delays that have follow ed
the getting Of the first franchise,
and the final abandonment Of the
scheme by It's pioneer promoter,
has only accentuated the desire
of the people for snch Il cnnven-
fence and utility Only for the
want Of leader in big nudertak-

ONLY TWO DEATHS YESTERDAY.
In New Orleans the Fever Condition
Continues to. Improve.
(Rv the Associated Press.

New Orleans. Sept. 29.-The official
report of the fever situation in this city
UP to six o'clock this afternoon fol-
lows:
New cases, IS; total to date, 2,9G9;
deaths, .; total, 1851; ne wfocl, D.
cases under treatment, 243; dis
charged, 2,340.
With the steady improvement in the
yellow fever situation there is expect
cd to be a gradual reduction, begin
ming next week, of the forcs noew en-
ployed under the auspices of the gov
ernment in the struggle to eradicate
the disease
Some increase over the very low
record of the preceding four days was
shown in today's report of new cases;
but in view of the fact that the popu-
lation today is much larger than II
was a month ago, the percentage OF
sickness is considered exceedingly
small. The days deaths showed a de-
cline.
The feeling of uncertainty regarding
the visit of President Roosevelt still
exist, and there is some apprehension
that the decision of the American
Public Health Association to have a
committee communicate to the Presi-
dent it's sentiments OF opposition to
the visit at this time may cause the
cutting out of New Orleans from the
present trip. Public opinion is almost
unit in believing that the President
personally has not shred of fear in
connection with the trip. Any an
'nouncement therefore, that the visit
has been deferred will be attributed to
the pressure that apparently is being
brought upon him, growing out of
ignorance of the actual conditions
prevailing here. 1t is promised that
decision will be given finally on
Monday.

FOR RATE LEGISLATION.
senator Chandler Warns Against
Dangerous Amendments Slipped
in by Railroads.
am the ASSOCIATED Press

Concord. n. H.. Sept. 29-In a series
Of open letters to Edward A. MoSeleS
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, former Senator William f.
Chandler, of New Hampshire. defining
his attitude toward the Esch-ToWn'
send rate legislation bill to come ne,
fore Congress at it's next session. ano
calls to the attention of the commls-
sion some of the dangers that bese'
the attempts to pass this Bill as tneS
appear 70 him..
Mr.. Chandler laid great stress
upon the attitude of the railroad com
panies, and says the Enethods OF de-
feating the measure to be put TOT
ward next winter will be by very
dangerous amendments. or additions
to the Esch Townsend rate bill under
the guise of friendly improvements
but really as railroad tricks
In one of these letters he said:
."The railroads loudly assert that
there is no possible need or govern
mental interference with their free
dom, except for the prevention of re-
bates and other determinations, and
those they say, they will do all in their
power to suppress. Secretary Paul
Morton is the ardent advocate of this
great work, and it seems that he is
the original apostle Paul who first
preached repentance to the railroad
sinners, having seen a great light him.
self while on his road.
yet If the railroad managers for
twenty years have been gross violators
of the laws against determinations
and have successfully evaded their en-
forcement and have at last succeeded
in repeating the penalty of imprson-
ment, it would seem that others than
themselves are the best judges to what
extent new remedies are needed and
what those remedies should be.
Nevertheless. in their desire to turn
the efforts of the president in some
other direction than the giving of
power to the commission to fix a
remedial rate various propositions will
be suggested instead of the one thing
needed.
THE present laws against rebates
and other Determinations are reason
ably ample, although lacking the inn
prisonment penalty. The great and
perhaps the only thing that is neces-
sary is the power to fix rates. which
is championed by the President. and
chat would be absolutely potent
against Determinations for a very sim
pie reason: If railroad grants d
lower rate to one customer than to
another, the Interstate Commerce
commission, upon PROOF OF the fdct.
will fix that rate as the legal and only
rate for all persons, and diScrimina-
ton instantly ceases from that very
condition. 1t is the one great remedy
which the commission has been striv-
ing for and the railroads successfully
resisting for twenty yearS-the fixing
of new rate when an old rate is
proved to he unjust-and now the
time of trial has come with d Presi-

reached.
During the last few days there have
been a number of meetings and con-
terences in the city between the rep
resentatives of either the Standard
Oil Company or the Coast Line and
the Directors of the new road yes
terday, it is garthered on excellent
authority. these negotiations reached
conclusion which means that the
Pamlico Sound becomes a branch of
the Atlantic Coast Line.
1t is also gathered that the origi-
nal plans as set forth by the promot-
crs of the road will be followed and
the line from Raleigh to Washington
may be said to be assured BY next
May, if the weather permits the road
will have been completed to Wilson
and the trains running between that
city and Raleigh. After the Wilson
connection work will be rapidly pros
cuted to Greenville. Washington,
and Snow Hill. 1t is expected
that the Washington terminus will be
established by Christmas, 1906 and
in all probability at a much Garlic
date.
The road is already completed to
Wendell Wake county. and it is pro-
posed to hold a celebration at that
point next month at which that good
community will have the opportuni-
ty of celebrating it's connection with
the Capital of the State and its direct
touch with tho coast.
II is regretted that the details Of
the deal cannot now be given 1t
is enough that it has been consum-
mated Whatever the result in the
scheme of railroad economies. the as
surancc that the line between Raleigh
and Washington is a practically Ger
tain fact will be pleasant reading to

ASKS TO SEE THE TORSO.
Mrs. Nathan, Sister of Mrs. Maurice
SchapirO Appears.
(By the Associated Press.)

Boston. Mass, Sept. 29.-Miss Ma
than. daughter of Mrs. Louis Nathan,
of Baltimore, came here today and
requested the police to show her the
torso of the woman which was found
in a dress suit case near the Winthrop
Yacht Club on Thursday of last week
She will see the body tomorrow
The coming of Miss Nathan has a
possible bearing o nthe Winthrop mys-
terry, although the police do not at
tach great Importance to it. Miss
Nathan is a sister of Mrs. Maurice
Schapiro, who has been missing for
the wife of former Westend doctor
who has also been missing for some
time. In the search for clues that
might lead to a solution of the case.
the attention of the police was called
to the missing doctor and his wife,
ard an investigation was instituted
and apparently concluded to the sat
isfaction of the officers.
1t was given out that the authorities
knew the whereabouts of Mrs. Scha-
piro and it was understood that infor-
nation had been conveyed to Mrs. Ma
than. Miss Nathan now asserts that
she does not know where her sister
is; the police must have been misn-
formed. and that she has come to
look for her. Miss Nathan will at
tempt to identify the torso tomorrow,
but as there are no marks or blem-
ishes upon it, identification is doubt
full.
Tonight two fish mongers found y
dress suit case in the water. They
grappled for it with boat hooks and
brought to the surface the upper por-
ton of the case. The police are not
inclined to connect this find with the
tragedy.

the pen of Francis kossuth will appear
tomorrow in which the, leader of the
coalition will state that he and his

with every peaceful intent, but that
they were not given an opportunity TO
demonstrate to the King Emperor that
the coalition does not contemplate any
obstinate adherence to its demands
and that the Hungarian nation wishes
to live at peace with Austria. These
are regarded as indications that the
negotiations between the crown and
