Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 23.-In ref
papers that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road had lost" eighty per cent of it's
freight car equipment to '.foreignS
railroads, the company makes public
figures which shows that the Pennsyi-
vania has contributed enormously
although not quite to the extent in
dicated-to supplying the needs of
other lines.
An extraordinary proportion oe the
company's own equipment is actually
is use on other lines, carrying heavy
tonnage which originated on the Penn
sylvania. Several years ago 1t became
apparent to the Pennsylvania manage
ment that tremendous building boon:
was developing in the United States
a movement which would inevitably
call for very large number of cars
of heavy capacity. Steel cars in I'M
precedent numbers were ordered
The boom is now at it's zenith. The
for structural steel is over
and the Pennsylvania Rail-
road is of necessity supplying cars to
haul it, particularly to the cities OF the
Middle West.
Just what effect this vast demand
from points on foreign" railroads has
had in absorbing cars of the Pennsyl-
vania, may be gained from a perusal
of records now compiled On Decem-
Der i, 1905, out of total of 2O5, IS
cars in the regular freight service of
the Pennsylvania Lines proper, SO 92G
were on the lines East and 1900 on
the lines West; 56,917 were on for
sign roads.

"Typhoon" is by no means the only
word for storm that has come to the
English language through Portuguese
and Spanish. Others are tornado
and hurricane" which Shakespeare
could still write hurricane" Old
time Engl.shmen, at any rate, spelled
the last word in at least as many ways
as Shakespeare and other people
spelled his name, and some of the
spellings indicate frantic attempts TO
make the word suggest derivation
Ineligible to the English mind. OF
such are '.furicane,'' ..hurlecan,
.Herocane" and ..Harry-Cain." Even
hurricane" was finally adopted, no
doubt, as suggesting hurry" The
original was the Carib ..hurrican,"

gal and Spain having been instrument
tai only in bringing it to England from
the west, as they brought "typhoon"
from the east.

Clever Land SWindler Finally

Ulysses b. Kellog, the Canadian

indeterminate period of from two to
fourteen years. kellog's waterloo
came Saturday in the Tippecanoc cir
cult court after the jury which heard
the testimony had deliberated but
seven minutes.
kellog's game was simple. The
knowledge Of the great opportunities
in Canadian farming land is wide
spread and he had little difficulty in
securing the interest of his intended
victims. He planned a number of ex-
cursions from Indiana towns to the
Canadian wheat belt and persons
contemplating the trip placed in his
hands various sums which We're to
guarantee that they would accom-
pany the party. But Kellog's excur-
sions never materialized. Dwight
North, of Milton, this county was one
of the men who paid his fee to ac-
company one of the excursions which
never developed further than the
early stage. There were other Wayne
county people who had contemplated
taking the trip but Kellog's arrest
at Bloomington caused a halt Kel-
log was charged with swindljhg. but
was acquitted. George w MichaeIs,

the lines East and 52,4S2 on the lines
West, while 72,4S2 were on foreign
roads
While number of P. r. r. cars On
foreign roads has been increasing, the
number of foreign cars on Pennsylvan.
ia lines has been decreasing.
On December /, 1905, there were
1920 foreign cars on the Penrsyl-
vania Lines East and West. while on
December :, 1906, this number was
only 56,354. The roads west of the
Mississippi River had on December
1906, 4,435 Pennsylvania cars, while
the Pennsylvania itself had only e,523
cars belonging to the same roads.
These totals show that the Penn
sylvania in one year has suffered 2
net loss to the other railroads of the
country of 1890 number almost as
large as the total increase in car units
to it's own equipment, and represent.
ing a much greater difference in total
tonnage capacity.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has thus
been originating freight and foreign
roads have had long hauls from a
large part of it. Necessarily, as a
consequence, the company has been
deprived of the use of a large portion
of it's own equipment without COM
pensating contribution to it's supply
from other railroads.
The company has thus had to face
the very difficult problem OF how to
get it's cars back from the foreign
roads, to which they had become,
.lost,' West of Pittsburg men are
now securing the country for cars for
the purpose Of sending them home
Practically every road
Of the United States will be gone over
and the men will travel thousands of
miles for this purpose.

SPLENDID YEAR
FOR FACTORIES
Richmond Concerns Have Felt
the Hand of Prosperity
Most FavorabIy.
THE IMPROVEMENTS MADE.
HoosiER DRILL COMPANY IN
MIDST OF DOUBLING ITS
PLANT AND STARR ADDED AN
OTHER BUILDING,

The year which will close one
week from today has been unques
tionably one of the very best that
Richmond manufacturing concerns
experienced in their history.
Without exception, it is indicated
from statements given out by manu-
facturers, there has been an increase
in the output of the factories, though
some of them express the belief that
because of the excessive tariff on
various materials entering into man
ufactured products, the raw material
as made by American corporations
has reached the price when profits
are to a considerable degree lessen
ed.
AS has been stated previously, To-
great quantities, feel the effect OF the
tariff. However, there has been pros
perity in plenty for Richmond fac
tories and what is more of importan-
ce at this particular time, the outlook
for next year indicates that trade,
especially in agricultural machinery,
will equal or exceed that of the year
just closing. There are several
Richmond concerns which have add
ed to their export trade during the
year. Gaar, Scott & Co., whose pro-
ducts find entry into many foreign
lands, where wheat and rice are
grown. has had an especially flour
ishing business in South America
countries. The company also has
established a mammoth ware house
in the Canadian wheat growing re-
gion and its business in that part Of
North America promises to show
great development during the ap-
preaching year. Other concerns,
without enumerating them, show
comparatively an equal growth in
trade and the conditions In general
for the coming year are such as to
gladden. the hearts of manufacturers
their employees, the business men and
the people in general.
A number of factories have been
required to make extensive improve
ments in order that their capacities
might be increased to keep apace
with their growth. The Starr Piano
Company and the HOOsier division of
the American Seeding Machine Com
pany have made or are making the
most extensive improvements. The
new building at the Starr Piano Com
pany has been occupied some time.
The addition to the Hoosier is rapid
~ going UP but will not be ready for
use until spring. Other factory inn
of lesser magnitude
have been made also.
The coming year will see many
changes of this character among the
and probably a few
new industries will be located. 1t is
the intention of the South Side I'M
provement Association to prosecute
in vigorous way the campaign for
new factories next spring and with
inducements which should be deemed
it would seem that the eff
tort should be successful.

Sir-After reading the article in a

which every latest discovery" in

timately with cancer.
The cancer cell, in my opinion, Is
in the nature of a vegetable. There
are many species and varieties belong.
ing to this form of plant life, known
TO science as saprophytes. They live
on unhealthy or diseased and decay
ing parts of the animal body. The
scientific definition OF the cancer cell
then would be a saprophytic organism
existing on the partly decayed human
tissues However, the cancer cell has
a previous existence in a spore state
similar to the pollen of plants. They
are very minute and exist In pairs or
twins, one representing one element
and the other an opposite element OF
fertilization, what science terms con-
jugate; and when the requisite con-

occurs and results in the development
of a cancer cell. They are wonderful

for their growth.
The cancer spore remain as a harm

long as it affords no cell or the re-

and they will be eventually cast out

MONON MAY TEST LAW
MAKES SIGNIFICANT MOVE
Company Has Decided to Renew its
Contracts With Newspapers to Elk
change Transportation for Adver-
Using Spec as Before.

The Monon Railway Company. it is
stated, has decided ~ make new cen
tracts with newspapers, after Jan.
l, for the exchange of transportation
at tariff rates, for advertising space
in the papers. This has been done
for years by practically all the rail
road lines, but the Hepburn rate law,
enacted by the last Congress, pro-
hibits the issuance of transportation
under such contracts after December
81.
When the bill was passed there
was some doubt among railroad peo-
pie, whether or not its provisions
were intended to cover such con-
tracts, but the president of the In
sterstate Commerce Commission re-
Gently gave a written opinion that it
did In consequence the railroad
companies as rule, have served no.
tice that they will not issue transpor-
tation, and will cancel all existing
contracts providing for it.
The position taken by the Monon,
contrary to the definite instructions
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, is not explained by the officials.
1t probably means that it intends to
contest this provision of the law.
