RAILROAD PASSES IN ITALY

ROME. Feb. 24-CSpecal Cabelgram 10
The BeeD-Italy. like the United States, is-
in the throos OF free pass agitation. q
what makes the situation difficult
deal with here is the fact that the rail-
roads are in many instances owned by the
government
According to the latest decisions Of the
officials In charge OF the state railways,
many changes in the free pass system have
already been made. The privileges of free
passes will still be given to all senators,
deputies and their families The term
family in this and in other cases is held TO
comprise wives. mothers and fathers or
grandparents sons up to the age Of 25 un-
married or widowed daughters and daug-
ters-in-law. as well as two servants. 1t
will be given to the wives and widows OF
all knights of the order of the Annunziata
and to few court cfficials under
secretaries of state who are not members
Of Parliament the president and the sec
tipnal presidents of the councils Of public
works, railway functionaries and eX-func-
tionaries above a certain rank and TO the
first secretaries of the prime minister and
minister of puOic works. 1t should be re-
membered tnat the railway pass of SEN
ator or deputy carries with it the rights
to reserved carriage. Free passes upon
particular railways or portions OF railways
are given to officials and functonaries con-
nectod with them OF with other railways
apart from actual members of the railway
administration; also to orphans of railway
agents for the purpose of instruction.
In addition, Italian journalists and cor
respondents Of the chief foreign news
papers have right TO three railway
tickets at reduced rates in the course of
the year. and to one free ticket in the
same period which will also be available
for their families. The minister of public
works has in addition the right to issue
every month sixty gratuitous uckets-each
available for five peoplc-for a single jour
ney. and 100 tickets every month at re-
duced tate. which may be given to persons
who have deserved such privileges by rca-
son OF services rendered to the state or
the railway. This order, ii enforced as II
stands. will greatly restrict the number
Of gratuitous travellers.

Another Fatal Accident.

Death came swiftly and in horrible
form to Walter Manuel at Shenan-
doah Junction last Saturday night
about 8 o'clock. The young man,
who was a son of Edward Manuel and
an employee of the cigar factory at
the Junction, was sixteen years OF
age. In company with another youth
he Jumped on a west. bound freight
train, and was thrown or fell between
the cars. Seven or eight cars ran
over him, crushing his body into a
shapeless mass of torn and bleeding
flesh that could scarcely be recognized.
The accident happened in front of the
station, and caused the greatest hor-
ror among the people who were about
the place. The remains were gath
cred up and laid in one of the build
ings near by, and later were prepared
for burial by Strider & Ramey, of
Charles Town. The funeral was held
in the Presbyterian Church at Shen-
andoah Junction on Monday, and the
body was buried in Elmwood Gene
terry.
