GREAT HELP TO THE CITY
Train Warmly Endorsed by Shippers
and Jobbers' Official.
A MOVABLE BUSINESS GETTER'
Some Revelations Adduced About the
Way Washington is Being Hurt
by the Railroad Companies.
Special From STAFF Correspondent.

DANNILLE, Va, Sept. a.
The officers OF the Jobbers and Ship
pers Association probably realize by
now that they did very wise thing
in accepting The Stars invitation to
send representative with the Great
er Washington Exposition Special.
Had they not detailed Assistant Sec
rotary Clum to this work they might
possibly have been enabled through
local jobbing houses which the MEM
bers OF the association to secure
some reports on trade conditions in
the southland. But these reports
must OF necessity have been incom-
plete. The travelling salesman has
no time to trifle with statistics and
trade conditions in the abstract. He
is too busy by far doing things in the
concrete.
But as result of Mr. Clum's in
vestigation the association will find
itself in possession of information
which it would have been impossible
to obtain in any other way than by
having representative on the
ground The association will be put
in possession of the reasons-and |
may as well say frankly that there
are an imposing number of them
why large proportion OF the mer-
chants in this section have not been
going to Washington to place their
orders. And that sort OF iniorma-
ton is going to be valuable to the
Jobbers and Shippers Association,
and to every man and body of men
interested in furthering the Greater
Washington movement.
The phrase that suggests IF YOU
can't boost, don't knock" doesn't bv
any means hold good here. Mr..
Clum hasn't been looking for boosts
since the train left Washington. He
wants to hear knocks" not the
kind born OF dyspepsia or a general
mental crouch against mankind, but

detailed knocks that have "the rea-
son why written all over them.
With a proper amount of inforna-
ton on hand there seems to be no
reason why the Jobbers and Ship
pers' Association should not be able
to undertake and carry out with
foresight and intelligence compre-
Intensive campaign for the CONNER
cial subjugation of this territory.
Last night Mr.. Clum wrote let
ter to Secretary Luchs of the Job
bers and Shippers Association, in
which he said, in part:
My Dear Mr.. Lucfs: You have
missed rare experience land also
some strenuous work. in not having
been with us yesterday and today
We are not on a boom train. Far
from it. We are on a Movable
Business Getter. The wisdom OF
the scheme has been demonstrated
over and over again, for while l
have been picking up information
that | believe will be of inestimable
value to our association, the boys
have been selling goods. Nearly
every salesman says that he is doing
better business than he ever did be-
fore in the same length of time, and
it is unanimously suggested that
Movable Business Getter be sent
out from Washington every three
months.
Summing up what I have ascer-
tanned thus far, | must say that | be-
lieve we should spend $4,000 in Sc

WINCHESTER INTERESTED.
Baltimore Jobbers Are Looking tc
Their Laurels-Await Train.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WINCHESTER, Va, September 90
Business men and the general public of
Winchester and vicinity are manifesting
a great deal of interest in the Greater
Washington exposition special train of
Pullman cars which is to visit this section
under the auspices Of The Star, and from
conversations held with prominent men of
this city The Star correspondent learns that
since the Greater Washington movement
was inaugurated recently there has been
sharper competition among wholesalers
and jobbers of Baltimore and other market
centers to hold the big trade of the Valley
of Virginia, which for years has been going
to Baltimore, principally because whole
salers elsewhere made no active or deter
mined efforts to get share of it.
Situation Different.
The situation is quite different now and
a glance Of the hotel registers reveals the
names of many Washington knights of
the grip who were unknown here a year
ago. There are some Washington houses,
however, who have been doing a good
business in this section for years, but the
number has recently been increased, which,
1t is pointed out, is all the better for local
merchants and tradesmen in general. The
and a leading merchant today correctly
expressed the current opinion that IF
Washington can deliver the goods Winches-
ter can sell Them" Baltimore home-comings
and tin-horn tootings and jubilees to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
Already Friends There.
In view Of the fact that many of those
who will accompany The Stars exposition
special, arriving here on the evening of Oc-
tober 8, have scores of patrons and warm
personal friends in Winchester, 1t is more
than probable that the Greater Washing
ton boosters will be received in a most
cordial manner characteristic of Virginians
when they meet their old friends.
Local merchants have been expressing
themselves as being hopeful that The Stars
exposition special will in some way result
in better freight transportation facilities
being put into effect without delay Up to
this point the freight facilities are better
than those enjoyed, or rather endured, by
merchants further up the valley" but
merchants say great improvement could
be made by the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road between Washington, Brunswick and
Winchester.

APPROVES BANKERS PLAN
SECRETARY SHAW AUTHORIZES
STATEMENT ON CURRENCY
LEGISLATION.

Washington, Nov. 19.-Secretary
Shaw of the treasury department has
authorized the following statement on
the subject of the proposed currency
legislation:
In his previous reports Secretary
Shaw has recommended currency leg
islatiOn, but has never recommended
any particular plans to the exclusion
of others. He has been much graft
fed at the attention given the subject
by chambers of commerce, by bank
ers' associations and by committees
appointed by each. He has remained
in the cabinet largely in the hope of
securing some legislation on the sub
ject. but he has not, and will not,
recommend details of legislation. That
is the province of congress, under
such advice as it may deem wise to
invite, or to which it may have the
opportunity of listening. The secre-
tary will be pleased beyond measure
If congress will adopt every detail Of
the plan recommended by the recent
committee Of bankers and business
men. He thinks congress will have
no difficulty in working out a plan
thereby satisfactory to all, though in
detail meeting the wishes in every
particular of no one man, whenever 1t
decides to legislate on the subject"
