in the slightest way implicated or even

Bank Employees Badly Scared.
The immediate result Of the publica-

enough, a certain amount Of disquietude
in the banks and especially among those
of their employees who are posted in
their smaller branch offices. Of course,
| they do not like the prospect of being
| held up by revolutionary maniacs or
criminals masqueradirg in the red cloak
of liberty. It has been proposed that
they should be armed, but that would
on the other hand be rather disquieting
to the customers, as the majority Of the
employees in question are young ladies
not supposed to be able to aim straight.
! Another result will he that the con-
| gress Of the cadet party in the Russian
! duma which, it has been rnmored, was
| to be held here in Stockholm next
month, will now be prohibited. As an
other matter Of course every refugee
/ from Russia or Finland will be kept

and who of course, even if they should

FREE SEEDS CUT OUT,

House Committee on -
Strikes Appropr ION.
A Washington special says: Over
the solid opposition Of the southern
members, The house committee on ag-
riculture Wednesday struck from the
agricultural appropriation bill all pro-
vision for purchase Of seed for free
distribution. This action came as q
climax to hard fight which south
ern members made to retain the APP
rropriation on the ground that it fur
rished one of the few direct benefits
the farmers of the country receive
from the government treasury. For
number of years a fight has been
made against this free seed proviso,
led usually by men representing city
districts, but heretofore the agricultu-
raj committee has always included the
item in the appropriation bill and the
opponents have been unable to striks
1t out in the house. Now It has been
stricken by the comniittee however,
the friends Of the appropriation win
find it extremely difficult to secure its
Insertion when the bill reaches the
house. This year the department Of
agriculture made the usual estimate
Of s252,0OO for the purchase Of seed
fer congressional distribution. The
subcommittee cut this to $4,000 by
vote Of 8 to Z. The full committee
struck it entirely.

THE SAME OF b FIGHT.
Opposition Again develops Among
Northern consressmen Against
Bonus for south's Fast Mail.

Report is current that the special
appropriation or bonus offered by the
government for the running of the
fast mail train to the south, would
have opposition when ne subject is
brought up in congress-. Many north
ern republicans in congrs n are back
Of this opposition andwhl they want
to cut out The fast mn service to
the south, they want to TAKE the money
saved in this way and make 1t pos
sible for more fast trains to the west
II was also learned that some Of the
southern members OF congress had
been enlisted by the Imposition for
the doing away with the fast mail
train to the south, although they were
not made aware that the money saved
in This way would be used for the
running Of fast trains 10 the west.
So far as the railroads are concern
cd, offciaIs state that while the bo-
nus for this fast service is 100000,
the railroads hardly more than pay
expenses because Of the heavy fines
which are imposed whenever this fast
train, No. 81, Is late. These heavy
fines. together with the great cost Of
maintaining all average speed of 50
miles and running at times UP 10 so
and more miles an hour. ats up this
100000 bonus, while as the fast mail
has the right of way Of all other
trains, regular passenger trains have
to be sidetracled and held, and in this
way the regular schedules are inter.
fered with and the railroads lose.
But whether the railroads gain or
lose, there is no doubt about the peo-
pie of the south winning by this fast
mail train, which has done much for
developing the business interests Of
the south, and to which the people
have become SO accustomed that the
r,ater Of withdrawing it would mean a
terrible blow at the commercial cir
cles of all Dixie. For New Orleans
this fast mail train means the saving
OF twenty-four hours, and for other
cities to the north of New Orleans
in this same proportion.
Besides this matter Of the mail,
very many southerners wSuld not Ge
able to get their morning papers pub
lished in southern cities until in the
afternoon or the next day. The saw
ing of twenty-four hours in the mat
ter of mail orders in these present
conditions means much to almost ev-
cry line Of business. 1t means that
orders can be received and sent OUT
the same Gay, while with the with
diawal of the Midnight Mail" as the
. train is known, would make this I'M
possible, and would in most cases
mean delay Of two days to the per-
son sending in the mail order. AS It
is the rapidity with which these mail
orders may be sent to business houses
and filled is responsible for the ire
mendcus growth of this just kind Of
business, the injury which would re-
suit in the taking off of the fast mail
would be hard to even estimate.
