WORLD RAILROAD
RECORDS BROKEN.
New York Chicago Trains Beat
18-Hour Schedule and Set
New Marks.

Chicago, June 12.-On it's first run
from New York, the Pennsylvania rail
roads eighteenth flyer the fast
est long-distance train in the world, ar
rived in this city at 1852 O'Clock this
morning, three minutes ahead Of Shed
ule time.
Extraordinary achievements in the
way of fast running were necessary.
After leaving Pittsburg the tender of
the big Atlantic type engine, which
had been attached at that city for
the run to Crestline, Ohio. developed
a hotbox, twenty miles east of Mans
field, Ohio. The engineer stopped his
train and fifteen minutes were lost in
futile effort to cool the troublesome
tached and the train limped into Crest
line. Here the regular engine was in
waiting.
When the "fyer'' left Crestline it
was twenty-six minutes late. The run
to Fort Wayne, 131 miles, was made
in ll411a minutes, an average of IS Clio
miles an hour. When the train pulled
out of Fort Wayne for the last lap of
the long journey, it was only nine min
utes late. Miles were frequently reeled
off in from forty-four to fifty seconds
and average speed Of a mile minute
was easily maintained over long
stretches of track.
| The fastest time was made near Ada
Ohio, where three miles were covered
in IS seconds, or at the rate of d mil,
in % Is seconds, breaking all tn,
worlds records. This is at the rate o:
1918 miles an hour.
President Underwood of the Fri
railroad was passenger
Already the Pennsylvania railroad Of
fcials. are discussing the. possibility O.
reducing the running time between
Chicago and New York to sixteen hour
and it is not improbable that such
schedule may be attempted in the nea
future.
New York, June l2.-The first east
bound train of the Pennsylvania ney
eighteen-hour service between Ne1
; York and Chicago arrived in yerse
City at 9:22 am. today-three minute
ahead Of schedule time.
The running time from Chicago t
Jersey City was II hours and 81 mir
utes. A short distance east of Hobar
Ind, the train covered mile in 8

BIG COURT WILL
BE USED AT LAST
Interior Space at Courthouse Will
Be Assembly and G. A. r.
Halls.

There will be no branch library or
readingroom at the courthouse as
planned. some time ago and for which
1000 was at one time set aside. In
stead, the interior court with the big
circular wall that. has caused so much
speculation from visitors, will be con
verified into sort of pavilion which
will be devoted to variety Of pur-
poses One-half the space will be made
into an assembly hall which will seat
about 800 people, and will be available
for conventions and other gatherings
Of public or semipublic character. Such
a hall has been strongly urged by the
Commercial Club for long time and
it was in response to the oft-expressed
demand that the courthouse and city
hall commissioners have decided to
build it.
| A portion of the remaining space will
be used for G.. A. R. hall to be placed
at the disposal Of the veterans or
CARNATIONS Of this city for permanent
home. It is understood that the old
soldiers are planning to establish q
1 war museum on a small scale, but in
the main it is intended for an assem-
bly-room. A retiring-room for ladies
will also be provided.
These plans are disposed Of beyond
recall as the contracts have been lei
and G. F. Haglin, woh holds them, has
already entered upon the work. TIT
old circular wall will be torn down, al
| tho it cost tidy sum. The new con
struction will be rectangle SO as t
make use of all the available space. I
is said that the roof and new walls will
not come high enough or close enough
to the courthouse and city hall quarter
to shut out the light from the grount
and first floors, but as many Of the of
fees already use artificial light nearl.
all day, the new structure can make bu
little difference.

ROCKEFELLER WINS;
SALOON Is TO CLOSE.
New york Sum Special Service.

Tarrytown, r. Y, June 12.-John Me-
lin, who owns little hotel adjoining the
country estate of John d. Rockefeller at
Tarrytown, has advertised his saloon for
sale. It is believed that on account of
village where the saloon is located. his
business has been ruined. Several years
ago Mr. Rockefeller endeavored to buy
the saloon, as he did not want liquors
sold in the vicinity of his place, and
Melin would not part with his hotel.
Now Mr.. , Ro &c, + H is going to wipe

Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, June 1.-THE Tribune this
morning publishes the following cable:
HLillehammer, June Sl2.-The DISCO
luton Of the union is by the will Of
a united Norway. The Swedish people,
too. wish it, altho the method used
hurts their feelings. Denmark is with
US; There viii be no future union Of
all three. Norway will be republic
if no Swedish prince accepts the
throne. -BjOrnson.'
No Recognition by Sweden.
Stockholm, June l2.-Premier Ram
stedt says the Swedish government will
refuse to recognize the revolution in
Norway and will submit to the riksdag
motions comfortable to this standpoint.
The premier thinks the riksdag will
adopt this view, and is convinced that
no foreign power will recognize Norway
as an independent country against the
will Of Sweden.
May Mean Use Of Force.
London, June l2.-Forceful measures
on the part of Sweden to prevent the
full realization of Norway's aims seems
the, only logical sequence of the ster
ing to dispatch from Stockholm re
fusal to recognize the,revoiution in Nor
way.
This view was expressed in diplo
matte quarters, and it was intimated
that recognized rules in European di
plomatic affairs tend strongly to sup
port the views Of the Swedish premier
that foreign nations will be slow to rec
ognize the republic or the kingdom Of
Norway. In fact, it was frequently as
serted that such step on the part Of
any one nation would establish new
precedent in European international af
fairs.
Prospects Of Peace Vanish.
Hopes of peaceful revolution, which
heretofore have been generally enter
tanned, were shattered by the report 0:
Sweden g definite decision to refuse tt
recognize the new Norwegian regime
which among diplomats here is inter
preted as an indication that forceful re
sistant will be made. 1t is not believed
however, that any radical action will
be taken until the riksdag has beer
asked to act. That that body will close
ly adhere to the wishes Of the king AM
the crown prince is presumption JUST
fed by long chain of incidents durin,
the Swedish Norwegian controversy.

MINISTRY AS A PROFESSION.
Quality Rather Than Quantity the Cry,

A conference lately held in Boston
tc consider how a greater number OF
able young men could be induced to
enter the ministry was attended by
two bishops. five heads OF theological
schools and colleges, and by clergy
men, editors and others-eighteeu
persons In all. They agreed unani
rously that so far as numbers went
there were ministers enough, but that
what the church needed was abler and
r.ore effective men in the ministry.
In its present state the Protestant
ministry seems an extrahazardous
profession. in which the peace OF
mind. as well as the maintenance OF
conscientious men is exposed to too
many risks.
It does not surprise the tholghtfu;
observer that in spite of its great at
fractions the ministry finds trouble in
attracting the class of recruits It
needs. One of the privileges that are
dear to the American mind is that Of
attending the details of his theology
whenever he thinks he has got enough
new light to warrant IT, A layman
may do that without embarrassment.
