court. preliminary to an additional
hearing today in the case OF the al
legged abduction of the children of
Thomas Murphy. a laborer. residing at

The agent of the Gerry society
stated in his complaint that he found
the four children in filthy rooms. with
no one to care for them. When the
Youngsters appeared before Justice
Wyatt they were found to be clean.
well cared for and apparently happy.
The father was found to be a hard.
working man, regularly employed, and
he protested vigorously and earnestly
at what he termed the abduction" OF
his children. Numerous witnesses tes.
titled that the children were well taken

the Gerry agent was baseless. Muir.
ply said that his wife died last Sep.
tember. leaving nine children Five
of them, as well as the father, are
working, but the four younger ones
had to be left at home. and 1t was
for this reason that they were seized

Charges of cruelty and abuse have
been made by dozens of youngsters

INCREASE S. p. DIVIDEND.

New York, July 31.-It is generally
believed in the financial district that
when the Southern Pacific directors
meet tomorrow they will place the
common stock on per cent annual
dividend basis, as against the per
cent now paid. Meetings of both the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific di-
rectors were held a week ago, but ac-
tion on the matter of dividends was
postponed until tomorrow. Wall street
Is disposed to criticize this delay on
the ground that 1t resembles too close
ly the famous holding back in August
of last year of Hartman dividend
news, while important stock market
operations were carried on. When the
increased dividends were finally made
public Union Pacific jumped 30 points,
and Southern Pacific also rose in a
sensational manner 1t was persist
emily alleged in some quarters that
the news had been held back in order
to let the INSIDERS" accumulate stock.
Ii has been reported that the South
ern Pacific dividend rate might be in.
creased to z per cent but Il. H. Har.
riman is quoted as saying that per
cent would be enough for the stock
holders.

NEW POSTAL CARD RULES.

Washington, July 31.-As the result
of an order promulgated by Postmas-
ter General Meyer, messages may
hereafter be written on both sides Of
government postal cards, the new rul-
ing going into effect at midnight to-
night. Some months ago the postal
laws were amended so as to give that
privilege to users of private post cards
but the concession was not made ap-
plicable to postal cards issued by Un-
Gle Sam. 1t was to remedy this in
consistency that the new order was
made. which provides that the face of
a postal card may be divided by a
vertical line placed approximately one
third of the distance from the left end
of the card, the space to the left
OF the line to be used for a message,
the portion to the right to be reserved
for address only. A very thin piece
Of paper may be attached If it com
pletely adheres to the card, and such
a paster may bear both writing and
printing. Advertisements, illustrations
or writing may appear on the back of
the card and on the left third OF the
front. Postal cards of new design
conforming to the conditions of the

Tor nearly nine months has been at
tempting TO form pool of all the
freight cars OF the country. Is admit.
tedly in the last stages of dissolution.
The Chicago. Milwaukee a. st. Paul
has already withdrawn from the pool,
and many other OF the leading roads.
both of the west and the east, have
announced their intention OF abandon.
ing the project.
The principal object of the clearing
house and the only excuse for its main
tenance was to insure each road hav.
ing on its own rails at all times the
exact number of cars owned by It.
In attempting to accomplish this the
organization has miserably failed,
chiefly because IT had no power to
penalize the roads for disobeying its
orders beyond the established rate of
daily rental. When all roads were
short of cars no road would give up
any of them when told to do so by
the pool management
The project OF having the clearing
house keep record of the inter
change of all cars and collect the
rental due each road mas failed be
cause all the big companies have in.
sisted on keeping their own records of
their cars and making the collections

1907. which closed its session here n
week ago, according to a statement Is

about $4,000. This includes the pub
lication of the laws in all of the
newspapers OF the state.

agement.
National attention was attracted to
his knowledge OF monetary matters
when he wrote reply to Coins Fl
nancial School," which he called Coin
at School In Finance" He went into
the treasury department with only an
elementary knowledge of finance. AT
once he made a close study OF the
intricate problems confronting him
as director of the mint. and OF the gen
eral questions OF national finance, and
is now looked upon as an authority.
Since assuming his position in
Washington Mr.. Roberts has received
many hattering offers from financial
institutions all over the country, but
declined them all until the presidency
OF the Commercial National bank, sue
ceeGing the late James E. Eckles. was
rendered
Mr.. Roberts has been infatuated
with his work as director Of the mint
and has done much to reorganize and
improve that bureau. During his in
cumbency many new methods have
been introduced. and the antiqnated
machinery formerly in use has been
replaced by modern inventions. some
of them suggested by the experienced
employees. From the smelling OF met
ais to the finishing touches on the
coins the mints of the country have
/ in late years been revolutionIzed. One
| OF the notable reforms introduced was
an automatic weighing machine. which
condemns short and heavy weight
coins and passes only those OF exactly
the correct weight.
