Since Mr.. Mudge's resignation on
the Santa Fe to become second vice
president Of the Rock Island. con-
siderable gossip which had been
kept pretty quiet till that time has
broken out. II is now mid that
there was considerable friction be-
tween General Manager Nudge and
Third Vice President J. w. kendrick
in regard to the attitude taken by
the company in the machinists'
strike. It Is currently rumored that
Mr.. Nudge does not approve Of the
policy adopted by Mr.. Kendrick in
Of absolutely ignoring members Of
the machinists' and boilermakers'
unions in their strike against the
company.
Resardle1 Of whether or not this
rumor b true. il d . fact that Mr..
Nudge has been selected for much
more important position on the
Rock Island than he had on the
Santa Pc. II is reported that his
salary will amount to $35. 900 on the
Rock 1slsnd.

Railway Passes for Life.

The fact has been brought ous in
connection with inquiry by the rail-
roads relative to passes. that in Wis
consin there have been for many years
quite a number of life passes. In the
earlier days of railroading in Wiscon-
sin many life passes were issued by
officers. such as Alexander Mitchell
and S. S. Merrill. These were given
for various reasons. in consideration Of
right-of-way privileges. personal
friendship or special services. AS a
rule these life passes read Pass Mr..
Blank on the lines of this road until
further orders" This constituted an
indefinite contract or agreement. with
the signature of the highest officer Of
the road or the head of the operating
department, and there has seldom been
an excuse for taking up such docu-
ments. Death has cancelled a good
many, but there are still some holders
OF such passes.-Milwaukee Evening

but a highly creditable showing when
1t is recalled that on that ballot the
votes were scattered between fourteen
candidates and Depew ran third to
sherman and Gresham. Harrison, who
was finally nominated had but 50

good start.
He TASTED three ballots and then mis-
strength went to Harrison which was

ing that our foreign trade Tor the year,

greatest in our history. The Imports
and exports together amounted to 81

crease over the previous year All rec
ords for both imports and exports hav-

Another comforting fact is that the
exports exceeded he imports by $780,
100000. the onicial figures being, ex-
ports, si.5Oo.ooo.oOo. and imports, ST.
iOo.0oOooO. In other words. the hal-

In view OF this. the proposal. TO RENE

hoping that the aggregate revenues
would be greater is not likely to nnf
favor with our law-makers For grant
ing the soundness OF that theory, 4
more goods were brought in it woule
mean the production Of less at home
and consequent stagnation here.
But we notice that there has been a
great decrease in the exports Of agri-
lcultural products excepting cotton.
Most OF the grain is now kept for home
consumption. There are two reasons
for this. The opening up Of immense
wheat-growing areas in Canada, Al
lgentine and Russia has satisfied the
foreign demand, and We require a
greater proportion of the home product
nor ourselves. The cities are increasing
out OF proportion " the spread Of as
rlculture, and the workmen in rho
shops and mills turning out articles "a,
the world, require bread.
The great increase in exports is IL
manufactured articles. which despii,

similar period. steel. cotton good.
