learned a great may facts from personal OBJ
servation and interviews with men connected
with the work.
"On is the chief topic of discussion in Kansas
to-day" said Mr.. Garfield. and it is likely to
be uppermost in the public mind there for some
time to come. l do not believe the State is
going to be injured by reason of its antagonism
TO the Standard. Production is, of course,
halted, but the oil beneath the surface is there
and may be pumped to the top whenever it is
needed and conditions arise to make the work.

facts there well in the other States |

impossible for me to say what evidence if any
of wrongdoing has been gathered by employees

proper time"

FREE CROSSTOWN SUBW AY
4rt Society's Suggested ISOLATION Of
City Transit Problem.

The latest report of the Municipal Art Society S
committee city plan comprises letter to the
Rapid Transit Commission. mainly devoted to
transit facilities through 34th-st. on this sub
ject the committee says
The evident desire of the New York New
Haven and Hartford and the Pennsylvania roads
to avail themselves of the subway system of this
city marks distinct and interesting transition
in the use of the citys subways. AS a result of
the local electrlfcation of these roads and of the
New-York Central from Croton south. it is evil
dent that the distribution and collection of their
passengers can be most advantageously effected
by running the coaches of these steam roads
through the subways.
We heartily commend your discrimination
against elevated railroads, and trust the Borough
of The Bronx may not be handicapped by the
future imposition of such roads to It's compare
tive disadvantage with the rest of the city We
desire to take exception to your proposal to de-
fleet north and south bound traffic in Manhattan
through 25th-St.. 34th-st, 35th-st. and 36th-st
The convenience of the existing local and
steam road companies should in this matter be
made subservient to the more important inter-
ests of the people of the city. crOsstown line
through S4th-st.. from river to river, should be
made TO serve all these interests by contract
provision for free transfers at all north and
south intersections. and provision should also
be made as indicated for later extension of this
subway to Long Island and New-Jersey.
While It may be, and probably is, desirable
that the trains OF the steam roads should have
access 10 the city's subways, the local travel
should not be made to suffer as a consequences

were concerned. he commended was as effective
az il could be made. He did not think the
Elkins law relating to determinations was eff

would become a vast political machine.

Statisticians who devote their leisure
moments to figuring what becomes of
all the pins will have widened field for
speculation when a recent invention for
their manufacture, embodying many
improvements over the present type,
comes into commercial use. The in
ventor claims his machine will point
and head 900 pins a minute, as COM
pared with 60 for the present type of
machine, while auxiliary machines will
insert the pins in papers 80 at time
instead of singly, one machine turning
out 10S packages day, against the
present output Of ten. Whether the
new machine will succeed in pointing q
pin finely enough to meet commercial
requirements remains to be determined
by practical working. This is a fine
point in more senses than one, since
an oddly of the present conditions of
the trade is that while the raw material
used in the manufacture comes from
America, far more pins are imported
from England than are manufactured
here, because up to the present Amer
lean manufacturers have not been able
to equal the British needle point on pins.
