Il did considerable travelling about
the country and found the systems well
conducted. The railroads do not run
at night, and consequently travelling is
slow. They are all under government
control There is a strict law against
tipping the employees. 1 innocently Of
fered a railroad employe tip and he
refused it. At first l didn't understand
why, but he finally told me that 1 was
liable to a fine of ten pounds for Of
fering it and he would be liable to
similar fine if he took it.
The telegraph system of course
works at night, though under govern
ment control like the railroads. The
aim in all these enterprises. is to con-
duct them, not for large profits, but on
a basis which will produce reasonable
returns.
Il travelled on the steamer from here
with the successor to Premier Seldom,
and he discussed a new economic idea
which he may put into effect, to limit
land ownership. His proposal is to
limit the amount of land any one person
may own or hold, by valuatisn He
proposes not allowing anyone to hold
land at all, over the value of fifty thou
sand pounds. Any person having land
worth more than that must sell or
dispose of all over that sum, if this rule
becomes the law.

by exhausted men, partially
under water, with nothing to
propel it but two long oars save
over the backs of sailors, could
get away from the wreck, against
the surf, why. ask the people,
could not boats or RATS from
rescue ships, rowed by strong,
fresh sailors, get in the the wreck
and take the people off? Seamen
haze sworn that it could have
been done, and without any ex-
ceptional danger. And yet the

FIRE HORSES RAN LOOSE.
Door Left Open when Alarm Rang Blaze
in Bradstreet's.


Acting Fire Department Chief John Binns
while returning to his quarters from the
fire in the New York Steam Company
plant early yesterday morning, dis
covered smoke coming from the offices
of the Bradstreet Company on the elev enth
floor Of the New York Life Insur-
ance annex, at 81 Lafayette street. He
started to the engine house at Lafayette
and Elm streets, a few blocks away, and
ordered his driver, Fireman Stack, 10 give
a still ala
Stack obeyed, pulling the alarm gong
on the apparatus floor. This automatically
dropped the chains and the horses came
running out. 1t happened that Stack in
the midst of his excitement left the engine
house door open and the horses forgot to
stop under the harness and ran into the
street. Before the firemen were aroused
the horses scattered all over the neighbor-
hood. The oops and freInen then played
the game OF cowboys. One horse was
found up near Broadway and White street,
one outside q saloon at Walker and Lafa-
yette streets, and the other took shelter
on the stoop Of an u~noccupied residence
opposite the fire house. Capt. Meyers and
a few of his men had a hard time gettin this
horse down of his perch.
Everything was mixed up for
five minutes, until the sleepy tiremen had
! awakened to the act that there was some
thing doing. They arrived at the fire Just
in time TO do a little of the work.
Men of Truck 4 in North Moore street
with the aid o, the building s~tandpipes
extinguished the fire, which had started in a
pile Of waste paper. The damage was
, slight.

Proposed New Route From Minneapolis

MINNRAPOLIs. Oct. 27.-Extensions re-
ported TO be under consideration by the
management OF the Minneapolis and st.
Louis and Iowa Central railroads promise
Minneapolis a new route to Chicago as well
as new connections with the Southwest.
One Of the extensions will give the COM
bined systems an independent route between
Minneapolis and Chicago over their own
rails.
This will provide against the time when
the Illinois Central will ave no further
use for the traffic agreement with the Mime
apOlis and st. Louis, by which II uses the
st. Louis rails from Albert Lea to Minneap-
oils and the st. Louis uses the Central rails
from Albert Lea to Chicago. time
will come when the Central has completed
proposed extension into Minneapolis from
Madison or some other point on it's lines.
The new Chicago route will be over the
Minneapolis and St. Louis to Albert Lea,
over the Iowa Central from Albert Lea TO
Keithsburg, ILL.,, and over the Chicago,
Joliet and Kansas City from Keithsburg
to Chicago. Il is said that the new line
will he continued from Keithsburg in a
southwestern direction to Kansas City.
but as yet contracts have been made only
for the line from Chicago TO Keithsburg.
Work will be under way on January 1.

ITALIAN QUEENS CROWNED.
Great Turnout OF Their COuntrymeD Rnd
C-OuntrywOmen 10 Hail Them.

No Drawer company ever gathered in
New York than that which danced far into
this morning at the Grand Central Palac
after the coronation Of four Italian queens.
respectively representing the East Side,
Little Italy, Brooklyn and the West Side.
They were democratic queens, selected
hy the votes Of their compatriots. and they
we're a. handsome, if not handsomer, than
many to the manner born.
The Italian newspapers started the vot-
ing four months ago, when the Italian
American Press Associat. on came into
existence. The ArcLdo then had a daily
c.rculat ON of 25, 900. Before the conteA
ended It was sell ng 10000 a day. The vot-
ing was closed on two hours not ce q
thu IS, 900 ballots were shut out, to the
distract on of a large colony OF admirers
of certain Ital an American young women
who had hoped to lead the regal process
son to the stage.
Last nil hts coronation was the first of
it's kind in America ard il drew asbig and
representative a throng of Italians n
Americans of Italian ,parentage a. has
ever appeared in a big hall in New York.
Tn crowns were bestowed by the Italian
Con sui, Count Ray baudi Massiglia, to the
flourish of an enthusiastic Italian orchestra
and mingled II ALLAN and American cheers.
The queen of the a Side, G~iuseppena
Peluso, was preceded by a little banner
carrier and followed by a blonde Italian
American page wearing a curly white wig.
She had received SIS ,306 votes. She was
born in Italy, as were the West Side queens
Silvia la Mamma, and the Little Italy queen.
Maria AItieri. who has Titan hair and blue
ewes. The Brooklyn queen, Emilia Monaco
looked the American she is, being a native.
and spoke chiefly in English. Sixteen
Drincesses followed the royal quartet.
Eleven Of them are natives of America, and
proud Of it.
Among the patrons of the show were
Coroner Acritelli, creole Cantelmo, O.. M.

Michael MoDonougtN Ind Frederick Lucas,
prize fighters, have a grudge against
ecch other. They decided. il is alleged,
70 settle the matter with their fists, and
for the last two weeks both have been
training for the bout, which was to have
been pulled OF yesterday afternoon on the
recreation pier at the foot OF Market street,
on the East River, just behind the little
floating church for seamen and others.
Az a further incentive hackers Of the W
fighters, the police say, made a side wager
OfS2SO. But the boys still have their grudge
and the stakeholder has the $500.
Peter FrascellR, the "1OS pound cham.
pion," who travels under the name OF Kid
Murphy, was master OF ceremonies. He
had failed TO figure on the police. All
noon and the crowd Of 500 who had paid
81 each to see the fight had collected in
South street.
Then R~oundsman Spsck and Policeman
Howard Of the Madison street station house
smelled q rat. Howard was sent TO the
top Of the recreation pier and he had no
sooner stuck his head abo the top OF the
stairway than he was carried on his feet by a
rush from a crowd and before he knew what
happened no was being carried toward
the edge Of the pier. while some one yelled:
Eighteen and carfare for youse. over
into the drink wild him.
Then a big sailo took q hand and in about
six seconds the crowd which was bent on
hurting the bluecoat overheard was scat
tered in as many different directions, inn
PEELED by the brawny fists Of h sailor.
By the time Howard recovered his equil-
ibrium the crowd was scurrying away
through South, Market and Water streets,
with R0undsm1n Speck in pursuit, Sew
eral were chased into a vacant building at
Az Water street, but Policeman howard
could not say that my Of them had p~artici-
pated in the assault on hima and they were
let go.
In the meantime Capt. Ferris and the re-
serves had come down from the Madison
street police station, but the dove Of peace
had settled down by the time they arrived.
The only damage done was the loss OF
Towards helmet. which went overheard
into the East River and the injury to his
feelings.
That was only a stall, said n Of the
crowd afterward; we weren't going to
pull OF the fight to-day. It's coming on
on he West Side. and she'll be a peaoh.'
