Library Conduit a Success.

A conduit extends from the Capitol to the
Congressional Library for the delivery of
books to members Of Congress- and it is
said to be a success. A diversity of opin-
ion is said to exist to the capacity Of the
proposed carrier system-as to whether it
should be simply pneumatic conveyor Of
copy and light packages or an automatic
electric railway, capable of carrying sew
eral hundred pounds of books at one trip.
Either system could be operated from the
big prntery, it is said air compressors
being already installed to operate the Lam
ston typesetting machines, the pneumatic
delivery system, the gold-saving machinery
and other purposes. Electricity for I'M
foreground railway could also be furnished
by the electrical department If desired, and
a corps Of experienced men would be avail
able to operate it.
Enthusiasts claim that something should
be done the coming winter to start the
movement. SO that advantage might be
taken of the torn-up conditions of North
Capitol street. 1t Is maintained that one
third would be added to the cost If the i'm
provements about the union station are
completed and the streets concreted before
the installation of a delivery system is at
tempted. 1t is said that Public Printer
Stillings will investigate the subject before
the assembling of Congress. and be pre-
pared to cooperate with the desires OF the
printing committees of both houses.

WANT RAPID TRANSIT
PNEUMATIC SYSTEM POSSIBLE
BETWEEN CAPIT.L AND G. P. o.

The attention OF Congress viii again be
called this winter to the necessity of pro-
vidng means of rapid communication be-
tween the Capitol and the govern nlent print
ing Office. The means of sending copy to
the printing Office and of returning proof
sheets has heretofore been by bicycle mes
sengers: but the growth OF congressional
printing has been rapid that for num-
her of years Terent plans have been
under consideration to provide more rapid
communication.
Frequently committees meet at the Capt.
tol n the evening to consider or frame an
imp Ut mt b.-l. ana Will Seld copy to the
Er.niery 81 Intervals up to or :; O'Clock in
he morning. This copy is put III type and
the pToofsaeets sent back to the committee
loom at once: but with pneu n ,t:c or
other me ans of transmission IL is said that
the printed sheets would lie in the hands
OF the committee before they would be in
the rouch OF the bicyc.e messenger under
the present system. TIE pneumatic tuoe
system in the Office would not have to be
changed, it Is said, a central station re-
ce.vng the large carriers and transmitting
the contents to its proper defamation.
The chief objection to the installati ton of
a rapi0-delivery system between the Capt.
tol and the government printing office here
tofore has been the devious route necessi-
tated because of the presence OF the rail-
road tracks crossing North Capitol street.
When the matter WAS up for consideration
there WIS a TACT uldersta ffding that the
project should lie over unsil tie new union
station was cert ..nty and there was an
opportunity to extend the system in
straight line to the Office. On account of
the railroad tracks the tube would have to
be extended around by way of New Jersey
avenue and east on G street, and there
would be the objection of overcoming the
resistance Of the turns, well the in
creased cost; but now it can extend in a
straight line to the printing office.

CH|CAGO'S ELECTION
favors Municipal Ownership
But Not Operation
QUESTION SETTLED BY PEOPLE
Three Propositions Were Submitted,
Voters Declaring That the City
May Acquire and Control Street
Railways, and That While it Shall
Operate Them, Such Policy Would
Not be Desirable.

Chicago, Special.-Under the re-
suit of the city election held here in
which the question of municipal own
ership of the street railways was the
vital issue, the city of Chicago can
proceed to acquire and control the
railways but cannot oparate them. at
the same time the voters, while de-.
claring tia the city shall not. pro-
cecd to operate the railroads, declar-
ed that as question for public policy
it would be desirable for the city to
do so.
Three propositions were submitted
to the voters, tue first of which was:
"Shall The city Of Chicago proceed
to operate street railways?'
This proposition required 60 per
cent. Of the total vote c"st in order
to become effective. total vote
was .213,171. Of this number the
proposition to proceed to the immedi-
ate operation of the street railways
secured but 12O,911 votes, l7,792
short of the necessary threc-ffths.

Hard Coal Psrley Fails.

New York, Special The sub-com-
mittees representing the anthracite
operators and mine workers of east
ern Pennsylvania held their first
joint meeting here and after nearly
a three hours session adjourned I'M
til / p. NJ. Thursday without coming
to. an agreement. Each side to the
controversy has refused to mike the
slightest concession and the whole
question apparently is as far from
solution as il was before this con-
terence began. In The meantime the
tie-up of the anthricite industry re-
mains as complete as it was yester-
day, without indication that a re-
sumption of mining will occur very
soon. Notwithstanding the fruitless
session and the APPARENTLY hopeless
deadlock between the workmen and
their employers, rumors are still cur
rent that way will be found that
will enable the operators and miners
to stand on common ground and set
tie their differences.
