WOULD GUIDE IMMIGRANTS
Certain European Non-Landowner rs
Would Make Desirable Americans
SpectaI To The Horaid


ST. LOUIS, Mo. July 15.-Broughton
Brandenberg, sociological writer and
author. president of the National Insti-
tute of immigration, with headauarters
in New York city. is studying criminal
conditions as a basis for future maga-
zine articles. He addressed a body of
railroad immigration agents at the
Missouri Athletic club.
Because the great body of emigrants
settle in the already congested cities.
ne suggested that land owners organize
and send competent men to Europe to
select likely emigrants and to guide
them to the farming lands of the United
States.
Mr.. Brandenberg believes that the
emigrants should be given a main :
tenance, if necessary. until they get
their farms opened up and seeded.
The speaker said that there are thous-
ands OF agricultural people along the
Baltic coast who are hardy and reliant
and would make excellent citizens. Bo-
hemians, too, he said make desirable
farmers. and declared that not fewer
than 100000 of them go to Germany
each year to assist i'm the harvests.
These people have no land of thei,
own and could easily he induced TO emf.
crate 10 the United States. The same
he thought is true of nearly all tn.
Baltic countries.

NO TR|FL|NG c WITH

Jail Sentences Confront Those Who

Expense for New Tariffs
Likely

Intimations are being sent out by
some of the strong lines that from now
on there must be no trifing on the part
of commercial agents with fixed sched-
ules of rates.
A different practice is to be pursued
from this time forward by officials Of
one road who may discover those OF
another cutting rates.
Heretofore all such transactions have
been covered UP and kept in the dark,
so far as the administrators of the law
are concerned. 1t has been a point Of
honor of officials of one road not to in
form on those Of another who may have
been discovered brea king the law.
Now this is to be changed, and all IL
legal transactions discovered are to be
called to the attention of the Interstate
commerce commission Immediately, ir-
respective of whether an imprisonment
penalty attaches to the offense or not.
If this intimation actually is put into
pra ctice. 1t is said that it will inevitably
result in rigid maintenance of rates.
No official will cut rates If a moral
certainty exists that he will have to
go to jail for so doing.
AdVices from Chicago are to the effect
that there will shortly be a general
meeting of both ca stern and western
roads representatives to discuss the
provisions of the new law.
is the publication of the tariffs which
is required by the law. 1t is almost a
physical impossibility to comply with
the strict letter of the law. To do so
would cost hundreds of thousands of
dollars and require more depot wall
space than many depots contain. The
expense, in fact. would he so great
to drive some lines out of business If
they are compelled to comply with it.
The roads desire to obey the law, their
officials say, and it is further desired
to act uniformly. so that the best re-
suits of whatever publication is made
may be obtained

A southerners idea of a westerner's
gold and silver coin instead of the
paper currency that is prevalent
throughout the east and the south was
given a good hearing before Dan r.
Murphy, chief clerk at the Westmin-
ster hotel last week, when members
of the National Educational associa-
tion were guests at the Westminster.
The discussion of the preference of
paper currency over that of gold and
silver came up when one of the West
minister's feminine guests wanted a
gold certificate of large denomination
changed into smaller bills. With a
delicious dreamy southern dialect the
guest asked Mr. Murphy
Gould you-all kindly change this
hyah gold certificate for me?'
Here's where you get yours, "
thought Mr. Murphy when he caught
sight of the shining yellow back.
With more than ordinary speed Mr..
Murphy made a wild scramble for the
cash register and landed stin left on

bell was like the contact of a bullet

Projected Trolley Line Will Come via

There is reason to believe that the
projected Cotton Riverside trolley line
will come by the way of Elliotta
Springs. The route proposed from the
springs to Riverside is on Strong street,
west to Market street and in on Market
to the Southern Pacific depot.
There is understood to be deal in
process of incubation between Harri-
man and Huntington whereby the
Southern Pacific turns over the right
of way on Market street to the trolley
magnate, the Southern Pacific making
joint use of the Salt Lake tracks and

The trolley line would pass close to

Murphy. and he went to the safe, from
which he produced the desired change
in paper money. Dramatically the
chief clerk laid it out on the counter,
while other visitors crowded around
and wanted to know if Mr., Murphy had
any more of them greenbacks."
Fearing run on his bank" Mr..
Murphy descended TO deception and po-
litely informed the guests that had
surrounded the counter that his supply

Every
Heart Beat

Forces about 8 ounces of blood
out of the heart, and sends it
coursing through the veins to
the remotest part Of the body.
This is the amount required by
nature to nourish and sustain
your body. Every ounce less
than this means a shortage in
natures supply of building-up
material. A weak heart cannot
meet this demand, and conse-
quently you suffer. If your
heart skips a beat, or Autters,
palpitates, pains you, or you
have shortness of breath, you
may be sure that the heart is
working imperfectly.

list of bankruptcies were those own
ing costly terminal properties in two
large cities, Chicago and Toledo. but
operating, practically, only switching
lines; two great real estate and rent
ing corporations which have proved
Improbable, not on account of general
conditions in the transportation busi-

not pay rent enough to support the
landlords
The Toledo Railway & Terminal
company, which owns thirty-one miles
of tracks around and into the city, a
freight and passenger station and con-
siderable equipment, affords terminal
facilities for eight railways. 1t was
leased for SO years to the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton and Pere Mar
quette companies which had uncondi-
tionally guaranteed it's $3,500,000 of
bonds; but the failure of these reck-
lessly financed concerns put the affairs
of the terminal company into a tangle.
The Toledo Terminal is a legitimate
proposition, at present suffering from
connection with speculation.
The Chicago Terminal Transfer, a re-
organization nine years ago from the
illfated Chicago & Northern Pacific
and Chicago & Calumet Terminal COM

several hundred acres of highly val

tensive freight houses and costly
passenger station tenanted by several
important lines. Several companies
have been negotiating for the property
and it undoubtedly will fall into strong
hands; but on account of heavy inter-
est arrears, and the obligation imposed
by the city of heavy expenditures for
track elevation, the security holders
asked the protection of the court. After
a sufficient scaling down of the $46,-
