Hrs. Herman Oelrichs Makes I'm
portant Trip to San Francisco.
May Sell so City Blocks Of Water
Frontage to E. h. Hartman.
PRICE IS s1,2OO,O 600.
Wants to Secure Position in Bat
ties With Gould and Ripley.
Key to Supremacy Of TranspOr-
tatiOn Situation at Golden Gate.

San Francisco, Cal. Sept. 15.-The
Call today says:
The coming to san Francisco of Mrs.
Herman Oelrichs. who arrived from
New York last evening. has to do with.
things other than the contesting of her
husbands will. Primarily the purpose
of Mrs. Oelrichs' western trip, which
was contemplated before her hus-
bands death, is to confer with local
people regarding a big realty deal in
which it is reported that E. H. Harri-
man, of the Southern Pacific company,
is deeply concerned. 1t is the sale of
so blocks of property on the northern
boundary of the city, commanding one
of the largest pieces of water frontage
on the bay and forming a key to a
transportation situation that would be
of ineaiculabie advantage to Hartman
in his coming battles with Gould and
Ripley and possibly Hill for future SUI
premacy on the San Francisco
peninsula
Mrs Oelrichs has received an offer
of S1,200,000 for this piece of property
which IS her last holding of the orig
inal Fair estate. In laying his wires
for the requirement of the Fair prop
erty Hartman has in view a plan for
another railway gateway into San
Francisco and one that will more
quickly reach the business portion of
new San Francisco and improve his
position against mpetition in secur-
ing the bulk of the governments b-si-
ness emanating at the Presfdio With
Mrs. Oelrichs' water front property in
his possession he will transform it into
big terminal point and will then
commence building in a southwesterly
direction toward his main coast line
using rights of way he already has at
lngleside te aid him in carrying out
his scheme.

WILL OPERATE BIG LAUNDRY.
Illinois Central Prepares to Do It's own
Work.


In a few days the Illinois Central
viii put in operation in Chicago a
modern laundry in which will be wash
ed all the linen used on the 1875 miles
of this system. Up to this time only
part of the linen has been washed at
terminals and considerab bic has been
sent to private laundries When the
new plant is opened washing for the
entire system from Chicago to New
Orleans, st. Louis, Omaha and St Paul
will be done in Chicago; one of the
few railways in the country to be SO
equipped. The new laundry will cost
with machinery about $4,000 Nearly
everything Will be done by machinery
and these will be manned by TWEEN
ty-five girls
Some idea of the work that will be
put up to the new laundry may be had
by the following figures showing the
mum Der of pieces of linen sOiled and
washed on the Illinois Central system
every month: Napkins, 10000: table
cloths, 10000: aprons, 10000: jackets,
5000; towels. $4,000: cooks caps,
table felts. sheet slips and miscel-
laneous. 1000. This covers the laun-
dry for thirty-two standard dining,
cafe. buffet and cafe library cars
eleven officers working cars. one pay
car, and five eating stations, Chicago.
Champaign, Decatur, Louisville and
Memphis
It is a rule to keep everything clean.
and as an illustration of this rule on
the run of single dining car between
Chicago and New Orleans there are
soiled 600 napkins 220 table cloths
and 100 small doilies, to say nothing
of walters and cooks caps, aprons
and coats.
The expenses of maintaining first
class linen in dining cars and at eat
ing stations is immense. When a hole
appears in table cloth or napkin it is

Pullman Stockholders Went Dividends.

New York, Sept 13-@The latest re-
port here in regard to Pullman stock
is that some of the stockholders, tired
of waiting for the melon cutting that
long time. are taking steps to organize
for the purpose of formulating de-
mands upon the controlling interests
and to force them to declare more lib
eral dividends and TO give more in
formation about the financial affairs
of the company. So far no names of
d committee have been mentioned be-
cause it is said that the matter has not
proceeded far enough to make it pos
sible to give the personnel of a COM
mittee. Interests connected with the
company say that it needs its surplus
funds as working capital and that it
would take a good deal of persuading
to get the management actually to dis
burse this working capital to the ex-
tent that some people appear to wish
them TO do.

The following is the text of a rail
road mans prayer" pasted on the fire
mans side of a switch engine in the
Northern Pacifics yards in Spokane:
Now that / have tagged Thee. lift
up my feet from the rough road Of life
and plant them safely ops the deck of
the train of salvation. Let me use the
safety lamp of prudence. make all the
couplings with the link of love. and let
my hand lamp be the Bible, and keep
all switches closed that lead off the
main line into the sidings with blind
ends. Have every semaphorc block
along the line show the white light of
hope, that I may make the run of life
without stopping. Give me the Ten
commandments as a working card. and
when I have finished the run on sche-
dule time and pulled into the terminal

ROCK ISLAND BUYS.
Now Reported That HawIey Has Sold
His Holdings.

Now Reported That HaWley Has Sold
His Holdings.
It is reported today that Rock Island
interests have purchased from Edwin
Hawley all his holdings of railroad Sc
curities. particularly those of the Iowa
Central and Colorado Southern roads.
These roads lie right in the center Of
Rock Island territory and could be made
useful feeders of the Rock Island lines.
It is understood that the Yoakum and
Hawley interests have been closely al
lied for some time, and there is nothing
unreasonable or impossible in a deal as
is now reported. The matter of such a
deal, however. was not even mentioned
at the annual meeting of stockholders
of the Iowa Central held last Friday
