The horrors of the have not been felt
in either country and there is no memory

will be made which will settle all cases of
precedence in Asia 1t will be first Japan
and Russia and the other nations in any
order they please if they will only not fol-
low too closely.
Some people may object against this and
declare 1t impossible on the ground of
Japan's friendship for the United States
Well friendship is a beautiful thing. like
religion; but business IS more profitable

of the general Offices went out over
the branch checking out agents who
had quit. Glenwood, Willard and Cy-
rus among them, There are no OPERA
tors at closed Offices, but someone 10
left to look after mail and express.
One Of the great Inconvenience at
Offices where there is still an agent
but no operator ia that no information
about train movements can be learned,
and passengers must wait In the STA
tion hours for trains. or likely miss
them.
All express is taken subject to delay,
and many articles are being sent by
express which ordinarily would 60 by
freight. The delay in receiving farm
repairs is causing much complaint, ss
this is the season when the repairs
are greatly needed.
It seems that local passenger trains
keep on time pretty well, that east
bound coast trains are generally late.
and that the freight service is de-
moraljzed to great extent.
There Is difficulty in getting compe-
tent operators, and the expert train
dispatchers who have been doing the
most of the work, and are pretty tired.
Undoubtedly good many incompe-
tents aud men who know but little
about operating have taken the oppor-
tunity to get transportation free out
west. Chief Train Dispatcher Nc
Lane is still in charge OF the local
Office
The passenger trains appear to be
piloted by short freights. consisting of
