Col. Dupont has several millions
invested in the powder trust which
has been recently subjected to a
hot fire in the Senate by Mr.. Bacon
of Georgia for robbing the Govern
ment. Since Addicks has spent
all his surplus arising from the cas-
trust, no doubt Col. Dupont will
be able to harmonic the party by

tect the powder trust by means of
of his vote and influence against

FREIGHT MANAGERS HERE.
Conference to Be Held Over Schedules
With the I. c. c.

Freight managers from every important
railroad in the country are in Washington
today, and will be before the interstate
commerce commission all this afternoon
and probably for several days thereafter
trying to settle the details of freight sched-
ules that will have to be filed with the COM
mission under the new law.
There are representatives Of the Eastern
Trunk Lines Association, the Southeas ern
Traffic Association the Western Traffic AS
ISOLATION and the Miss ssippi Valley Asso-
citation. About a hundred of the railroad
men held a meeting in the parlor of the
New Willard this morning and the sew
eral committees that have been working on
the schedule business reported and tried
to get their ideas in shape for presentation
to the commission this afternoon
The principal object of the commission
and the railroad men is to strike simple
and unders andabe form of schedule
which all of the roads can adopt and which
it will be easy for the shipping pubic to
use. There is also the question whether
the initial roads shall file the whole of a
through schedule where it is Jointly made
up by several lines and how much of the
schedules of connecting systems roads will
be compelled to file and how duplica ZION
may he avoided.
The whole matter of tariffs is at present
in a much mixed condition. Each of the
roads has its own system of filing, and it
ldhtS an tAptIt tIeIh " Keep lTdck Oh
the various volumes of tariffs of his own
road while it is almost impossible to ex-
pect one man to carry the systems of two
lines in his head.
1t is possible that by an exchange of
ideas something like uniform system may
be developed, and the railroads are about as
anxious the commission to see this
done. The shipping public will also be
greatly benefited by having schedule that
they can understand and will not force
them to mane continual, complaints of over
charges against the roads.

TELEGRAPHERS COMING
OLD TIMERS AND OTHERS TO
MEET HERE.

Old-time telegra pliers and telegraphers
of other sorts were drifting into Washing
ton all day today In preparation for their
convention, which opens at the Arlington
Hotel tomorrow. There will be three con-
ventions in one, the Old Timers. the Tele-
graph Historical Society and the Society
of the Military Telegraph. There will not
be much business done as business Is
usually understood at convention. The
officers of the three branches of the society
will be elected and the remainder of the
time will be spent in reunionizing and in
trips around the town.
There was nothing much doing at the
headquarters in the Arlington this morn
ing, as the few early corners had not ex-
pected to get down to business for another
twenty four hours but the local men were
all on hand ready to welcome the incom-
ing guests and the members sat around
in the lobby and smoked and snapped
stories.
That is one of the beauties of a wire con-
vention. for it brings together people that
may have known each other over the wire
for years and yet have never met. Some
of them meet but once a year, and then
New York will hunt up Chicago" and
washington will chin with New Or
leans" it being their chance for a face
oface talk though they may have been
talking per sounder for the past year
There are some of the oldest men in the
telegraph business who belong to the old
timers. The president of the association
is usually elected with view to the city
where the convention will be held the fol-
lowing year. This is the case with Wash
ington as the convention city this year and

perhaps. than Mores, whose name Is so
bound up with the commercial develop
ment of the service. For he says that had
Henry not invented the relay the telegraph
business could never have been put on the
