SMOKING ON TRAINS.
Travellers Were First Entitled to
Smoke by Rail 81 Years Ago.


Smoke by Rail 81 Years Ago.
Accommodations for smokers In rail
way trains, which is now being dis
cussed, says the London Chronicle,
dates back only to 1868, and on Octo-
Der l it will be thirty-seven years
since travellers were first entitled to
smoke by rail. The question was
raised as an amendment to a board
of trade bill regulating the railway
system and providing, among other
things, for means Of communication
between the passengers and the guard,
and also imposing penalty Of $4,000
on any company conveying principals,
seconds or spectators to prize fight.
A clause enjoining smoking carriages
was proposed by Mr.. Sheridan, M. P.
for Dudley, and carried by a majority
of 16, after a debate in which John
Stuart Mill made his last speech In
the house, earnestly supporting the re-
form and recommending with remorse-
less logic that the last carriage in the
train should be reserved for smokers.

which 1t is claimed by the govern
ment was one Of the affiliated con.
Germs through which the packers con.
trolled the prices Of by-products. He
made the direct assertion that the
witness was not telling the truth in
his answers, and brought on warm
legal argument In which all the attor.
neys In the case took part. The ques.
ton was finally ruled out of the court.
District Attorney Morrison, at the
opening Of the afternoon session of
court, refused to admit the authenti-
city Of section Of letter written
by President Roosevelt and incorpo-
rated In report from Attorney Cen
eral Moody to the senate. The mat
ter is now. a public document.
The portion of the letter has to do
with the allegation of the packers that
part Of the report Of Commissioner
Garfield was used by the department
Of justice. 1t is as follows:
with my approval, the department
Of justice, with the assistance of the
department of labor. has for some
months been endeavorihg to find out
whether or not they can obtain legal
evidence of such wilful and deliber-
ate violation of the Injunction by any
individual. If the grand jury now
sitting in Chicago find indictments
against any individuals -, connected.
with the packing corporations 1t will
be because i'm their Judgment such
legal evidence of the violation Of the
injunction has been laid before
them"
Attorney General Moody was an in
terested listener during the cross.ex-
animation of Mr.. McFarlane. and
made many suggestions to the district
attorney.
During the noon recess Of court At
torney General Moody said in reply
to questions: II notice that the at
torneys for the packers have produc-
ed evidence to the effect that Com
missioner Garfield said that he would
not give to the department of justice
the information he secured from the
packers. If he ever said that he GER

THE RUSSIAN CRISIS.

With the imperial ukase dissolving
parliament the curtain rose upon pos
sibly the last act in the great drama
of the Russian revolution. The people
and the government now stand face
to face, and upon the army depends
the immediate issue. Even should
the government succeed in restraining
an outbreak of the people the victory
probably will only be temporary and
simply confine the steam for the final
explosion.
At Viborg, Finland, in the last gasp
of it's dying agonies Russia's short
lived first parliament cast the die for
revolution. Under the spur of a
threat to hasten it's death with the
