Made Railroad History.
Charles H. Wood had much to do with
making railroad history in the United
States, particularly in Chicago an1
Kansas City. Out of the package car
rying business which he operated be-
tween Cincinnati and Chillicothe on the
Marietta line mixed train, grew the
Adams Express company, pioneer in the
business. While representing the Chi
cago, Santa Fe & California line in Chi
cago, he established the present center
for railroad offices on Clark street near
Adams. To do this he worked with the
real estate agents to secure proper
quarters and then induced also the Bur
lington and other lines to come down.
While holding this position he also OBJ
tanned the land and municipal conces-
sions which resulted in the Santa Fe's
entrance into Chicago from Kansas
City. About this time he christened
the famous g Panhandle line, and
finally secured official recognition Of
the name.
Mr.. Wood did great work for Han-
sas City also, establishing it's present
freight terminals as well as the first
union station.
Mr. Wood had strong personal char

"Pay or be penalized,'' is County
Treasurer G. w. Johnson's ultimatum

Before Coming to Minneapolis
a Joint Proprietor Of the Nicollet
House for Years-Funeral Sunday.

Colonel Charles II. Wood, proprietor
of the West hotel, died at 3:l5 am.
today from pleuro- pneumonia, after a
short illness. Always an enthusiastic
lover Of horses, Mr.. Wood rarely missed
his daily drive. Last Sunday the drive
was unusually long and it is supposed
that Mr.. Wood took cold. A severe
chill Monday morning, as he was on
his way to the bank, presaged pneu-

The many requests received by Dick

day night patrons will have an oppor-

something more than a simple statement

While there was much latent opposi-

that their ideas are right, and that their

have prevented much confusion and

1885, at Worcester, Mass. When about
twenty-five years of age he went west to
Ohio with an uncle, Gilbert Wood, a
railroad builder, to begin life as a rail
road man. His work was on construc-
tion train on the old Marietta line.
Following the completion Of the road he
was made conductor Of a mixed train
running between Cincinnati and Chilli
cothe. For seven years he was with
this company, then became general
agent Of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St.
Louis road at Chicago, and for four
years was with the Blue line at Chicago.
The next eight years Mr.. Wood spent IN
the employ Of the Chicago, Santa Fe &
California and the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe roads as general agent at
Chicago. The last two years of his
railroad life Mr.. Wood had charge Of
the Santa Fe freight interests at Ar
mourdale and freight and passenger
business at Kansas City.
Became a Hotel Man.
When President Strong left the Santa
Fe Mr.. Wood decided to quit railroad
ing and fifteen years ago he came to
Minneapolis with Ira ii. Shattuck and
bought the Nicollet house and land
lease. Until May, 1908, he remained in
partnership with Mr.. Shattuck at the
Nicollet. He took possession of the
West hotel, which he had just pur-
chased, June 1, 1908, and which he has
since controlled under the name of the
Charles Ell. Wood company, which con-
tinues the management.

TOO MUCH RED TAPE.
Pull and Graft Control in Many Gov
eminent Bureaus.


Washington, Aug. 22.-Much COM
ment has been aroused in local pcliti-
cal circles by the recent article Of
Frederic En- DRY, ex-chief of bureau in
the State Department, entitled 'rhe
Bane of Bureaucracy" Mr. Emory, in
the light of his experience in connec-
ton with Government departments
condemns bureaucratic administration
as inefficient, unfair, and subject to
useless delays caused by the ever pres
emit red tape.
While praising Secretary Wilson, Mr.
Emory claims that the cotton leak and
other recent scandals seem TO show that
the Department of Agriculture has for
sometime been run not by its head but
by bureau officers and their proteges.
Bureaucratic evils in the Navy Departs
ment are manifold, he says, stating
that 'sThe Schley episode exposed a
nest of intrigue and web of bureau
jealousies and rivalries which are less
only in degree than those that brought
about the political humiliation of Rus
sia's feet"
The explanation of Mr.. Emory's claim
that the Departments are run by under
lings lies in the statement that the
heads of Departments, often appointed
for political reasons, are either inauffi-
ciently acquainted with departmental
work to allow them to assume intelIi-
gent control, or that political changes
render the tenure of Office SO uncertain
as to defeat permanent plan of bust
ness management The subordinates,
who are OF course less susceptible to
these influences, are therefore very
naturally depended upon for the con-
duct of business.
The argument is generally advanced
that even if the integrity of rate-mak-
ing commission could be guaranteed ii
would still be out of the question for q
rate-making body to attend to its ire
mendous press OF business on account
of the red tape which surrounds all Of
fetal transactions. Mr.. Emory indi-
Gates that since favoritism or worse has
been an impediment in the past III the
conduct of the business of bureaus and
Departmental it is logical to believe that
such tendencies would be manifested
in bureaus in the future, such for in
stance az rate-making commission.
Finally Mr.. Emory, as result of ex
perience and study, claims that future
safety lies not in continued bureau
cratic administration, but in a depar
ture from such policy.
