TEXAS ANTTPAss LAW.
Its Stringent Provisions to Be RigidIy
Enforced.

Chicago, July 9.-The Texas antipass
law, which becomes effective July IL,
is giving considerable worry to the Of
hcials here of lines running into that
state. Stringent orders have been sent
to all agents and conductors to take
no chances whatever. The law is very
strict and forbidS the issuance of passes
to any but bona f1de employees of the
railroads and their families or persons
dependent upon them. Certain state Of
ficials, when engaged in official bust
ness for the state, are also exempted
The law also applies to the telegraph
and express companies.
Any violation of the law is punish
able by a fine of $1,000, this to be levied
against the corporation. The person
issuing the pass or express or telegraph
frank is liable to a fine of $500, or as
high as $4,000, and may also be sent to
the penitentiary for six months to two
years. Any person not entitled to a
pass who applies for one is subject to
a fine of from $500 to 1900.
At the general offices here of Texas
roads information has been secured
that some of the state officials who are
not in the exempted class intend to APP
ply for passes in order to test the law.
Positive instructions have been sent all
agents to refuse such applications, as
the railroads are not anxious for any
costly tests; and will obey and enforce
the new statute to the letter.

REVISE STEEL RAIL PLANS.
Experts Will Formulate Standard as
to Composition and Manufacture.


New York, July st is not expected
rail or a new schedule of steel rail
prices agreed upon until September, at
the earliest. The conference of steel
rail manufactu and railroad pres1-
dents adjourned at the call of the chair
man of the convention, E. H. Gary,
chairman of the Steel Corporation, for
the purpose of allowing the two COM
mittees to formulate a concrete plan
or plans, to be approved by the two
bodies.
The committees consist of IS members,
all of whom are experts in the steel
rail question. There is a committee or
nine appointed by the American Rail-
way association, and a similarly COM
posed committee of the steel rail manu-
facturers.
These experts are to revise the exist
ing methods of manufacturing rails ana
to agree upon a new standard rail. 1t
will be standard as to the composition
and practice of manufacturing. On
several points the railways and the
steel manufacturers are now agreed. Ii
is a comparatively easy matter, there
fore to predict that the new steel rail-
will be heavier and will have thicker
web and a thicker f1ange.
One of the innovations in the rail
business that is clearly indicated by the
conferences already held and the I'M
animity with which the idea was sup
ported, is that there is to be sliding
scale of prices The Republic cores
pondent has the highest authority IN
Stating that. while there is to be a
standard rail, which will cost basic
nrice. railroads which desire to buy
rail of a higher quality of steel will
be able to do so.

ALL RATES MUST BE REDUCED.
Interstate Schedules Will Have to
Meet Cent State Basis.

Interstate Schedules Will Have to
Meet Cent State Basis.
P s, Eustis, passenger traffic man
ager of the Burlington system, says
that since the 2-cent law is in effect in
practically all the western states, the
Interstate rates will be reduced as
soon as possible. He says further:
At first the railroads thought for
legal reasons it would be necessary TO
abstain from that form of voluntary
reduction of revenue which will follow
If Interstate rates are reduced from 8
to 2 cents a mile AS time passed, it
became more and more impossible to
maintain through fares on the old pa
sis and it has been determined the le-
gal phase of the question is not so i'm
portant as at first supposed. The rail-
roads are now revising interstate tar
ifs as fast as rate clerks can do 1t and
have applied to the interstate COM
merce commission for special dispen-
sation to permit making new inter-
state rates in each district as fast as
the tariffs can be published without
the necessity of the required thirty
days public notice.
The rates from Nebraska to points
in nearby states, like Iowa, Illinois,
Missouri and Colorado, can soon be re-
figured. Rates to points like Chicago,
St Louis or st. Paul can also soon be
refigured, but it will take long time
to adjust all fares to and from all
points in the United States. l think
it will take a year to rearrange all the
tariffs in the United States.
The roads hesitated about deciding
what they would do until after the
difficulty in Missouri was settled, but
have now decided to leave 1t to the
attorneys to get the cases into court
by some previous act and to abide by

MooDY's MANUAL REPORTS.
Amount of Money Invested in Rail-
roads Is Surprising.

Amount of Money Invested in Rail-
roads Is Surprising.
The edition of Moody's Manual for
1907, about to be issued, contains sur
prlsing statements as to the amount Of
capital invested in railways, industrials
and mines on the North American con-
tinent. Under four classifications of
steam railroads, public utilities, indus
trial and miscellaneous corporations and
mining companies, the Manual finds an
aggregation of $32, 800, 000, 900 of capital
represented in the United States, with
81, 64S, DOC, 900 more accredited to Canada
and Mexico.
In the steam railroad division the
Manual reports on a total of 256,301
miles of railroad, of which 222,O are in
the United States. This latter figure
is about 1000 in excess of the estimate
by the interstate commerce commits
sion of the mileage on June 80, 1906,
but this is more than covered by the
construction which we know has been
completed since the date named.
The figures for the steam railroad di-
vision are thus tabulated: Mileage re-
ported, 232,013; companies reporting, l.
419; capital stock, $5,279, 9O4,040; bonded
debt $S,62S, 552, 804; total stocks and
bonds, s13, $685. 56, S46.
This total of capitalization is larger by
$103, 000, 900 than that given in the last
interstate commerce commission statis-
tics.
Under the head of public utilities in
the United States the following figures
are given:
Electric tractions-Mileage reported.
0,824; companies reporting, 1,109; CAPT.
tai stock, 81. 1875, 172, 600; bonded debt, ST.
227, $50 900; total, s4.432, 764,OOO.
Gas, electric light and power COM
panies reporting, 1,130; capital stock,
81 ,14S, 909 ,000 bonded debt, $755, 900;
total, 1904, $4,000.
In addition. figures are given for wa
ter supply companies and telephone, tel
egraph and cable companies in the Uni
ted States. Canada and Mexico togeth-
err the countries not being separated.
These show water supply stocks and
bonds aggregating 1928, S38,00O, and teie-
phone, telegraph and cable stocks and
bonds footing 81, $50, 687, 900.
