MOVEMENT OF
THE FRUIT CROP
Looks as if Harriman's Pur.
chase Means Abandoning
Private Car Lines.
HAS ORDERED 5000
REFRIGERATOR CARS
Magnate Owns About One
Fourth of All These Cars
Used By Road.

There is little doubt that the pur-
chase by the Hartman lines OF 5000 re-
frigeratoT cars. expected to be consum-
mated this week. means that the great
fruit crop OF California, which has
amounted roughly, to 10000 cars a year,
will hereafter move to Eastern destina-
tions without much dependence upon the
excellent, but heretofore more expensive,
service of the private lines. This is the
conclusion arrived at by the Railway Ga
zette. AT local Hartman headquarters
the matter Is not discussed,
The Hartman lines and the Santa Fe
have enjoyed a practical division Of this
trafac. the Hartman lines usually get
ting q reported 40 per cent and the Santa
Fe the remainder. The Salt Lake Route
also has recently taken share. The
Santa Fe has between 5000 and 5000 re-
frlgerator cars available for handling its
share Of the traffic through the agency
OF the Santa Fe Refrigerator Dispatch;
but the Hartman lines have relied chief
ly upon equipment OF the independent
private car lines. With 5000 new refrig-
orator cars OF its own, the Hartman
lines will have total OF nearly 1000
refrigerator cars-more cars OF this class
than are owned by any other railroad
system and almost onefourth as many
refrigerator cars as are owned by all
other roads combined.
In the. year ending June, 1904. the
railroads, according TO the Interstate
Commerce commission. owned 22,75S re-
frigerator cars. Since that time they
have ordered about 5000 refrigerator cars,
not counting the proposed order OF 5000
by the Hartman lines. No accurate rec
ord is available OF the refrigerator cars
owned by the private companies. but 1T is
of interest TO note that since January
!. 1904, the companies have ordered more
than II 900 refrigerator cars.
The fact that the Hepburn law makes
railroad companies responsible for the
reasonab bleness of the icing charges over
their lines, together with the present
spirit OF antagonism toward private car
lines, has induced railroad companies
generally TO consider the advisability of
owning their own refrigerator equipment.
1t is known that the Santa Fe Refrig
orator Dispatch has been working for a
year or more to adjust its icing rates
TO a thoroughly consistent basis with
the purpose of filing all its tariffs with
the Interstate Commerce commission.
During the year important reductions
have been made in the rates from Cali
fornia, and In these reductions the Ar
mour lines have participated, But ap-
parently the credit which the latter will
receive on this score will be historical
rather than practical, for, in ordering
5000 refrigerator cars, the Hartman lines
have plainly taken the bull by the
horns"

cided to put In the proposed schedule
1t brought that particular hearing to an
end. MIR. Olsen then insisted that Mr..
Hill be subpoenaed to appear in the
Hastings case relative to reduction Of
the coal rate at that point, The sub
poena was issued, signed by Ira B. Mills,
chairman OF the commission, and A, c.
Clausen. secretary. The subpoena COM
manded Mr.. Hill to lay aside all other
duties and business and appear before
that body on September 1S Mr.. Olsen
called upon Mr.. Hill today and handed
him the subpoena. Mr, Hill read 1t and
said:

Dear Sir: We want a good agent in
Greenville to sell Devoe, the paint
that does every job with less gallons
than any other paint; and less cost.
The biggest fact in all paint is this:
every gallon costs S., when labor is
paid. The proper cost of Io-galion
job is $50, the usual cost is SIS, and
$Ioo is not uncommon Here's how
it works
c P Hanger, Stanton, Va, painted
two new houses, same size, Devoe and
another pure paint. Devoe cost !
quarter less for paint and labor.
Frank Edelin,, Grafton, w Va, says

c B Edwards, Raleigh, N C, had
used 80 gallons paste paint; bought 50
Devoe for same house; had rs left

apparently better fitted by education
combined with experience and tenn
permanent for handling the delicate
and complicated relations with our
Latin friends and enemies, than any
man just at present obtainable. Three
men in this country have become not
able in this country's experiments IN
colonization, Secretary Taft, General
Leonard Wood and Judge Magoon,
and of these only the latter is avail
able for Cuba. Secretary Taft, whose
heart is with the Philippines, feared
that by appointing Judge Magoon to
Cuba, the Philippines, for which he
was slated, would suffer and, conse-
quently, he urged that some one else
should be found for Cuba. Secretary
Root interviewed with the President
and convinced him that the situation
in Cuba was more critical than that in
the Philippines, and so it was decided
that Judge Magoon should succeed
Secretary Taft at Havana. The work
before him in the Island is likely to be
as different and thankless as that
mapped out for any man. While
Panama was a problem when Judge
Magoon took charge there, it was Z
simple one compared to the one h
will now undertake and his success
even with the talents he brings to thu
| work, is not by any means assured
but his appointment seems to be high

dent and epop1e here believe that tn
| same qualities of patience, honesty
sympathy and insight which accom-
plished so much in Panama, will no
be entirely wasted on this distracte'
Island.
