TRAINS TO TRAVEL SLOWER.
Operating Officials Reach Decision to
Lengthen Schedules.

After discussing the question for
several weeks. the western railroads
have reached an agreement to lengthen
the schedules of their through passen-
ger trains All the roads will put into
effect June new schedules under
which the minimum time of passenger
will be fourteen hours and thirty min
utes which is two hours more than the
running time now of the fastest trains
to and from Omaha
The minimum time between Chicago
and Kansas City will also be fourteen
hours and thirty minutes The aver
age running time now of the fastest
trains is thirteen hours and thirty
minutes.
The minimum time of passenger
trains between Chicago and Denver,
now twenty-seven hours and thirty
minutes will be thirty-two hours on
and after June 9. the increase in time
being four hours and thirty minutes
The greatest stumbling block en-
countered by the railway officials try
ing to reach an agreement for slower
train schedules has been as to the
minimum time of passenger trains be-
tween St. Louis and Denver. This has
been settled by adopting minimum
standard OF tEeEty-nfne hours, which
is one hour more than the present
schedules of the BlIrIington's fastest
trains between St Louis and Denver
The only schedules to be adjusted
are between Chicago and San Fran
cisco 1t is probable they will be
heightened at least four hours
Western railway officials declare
that the present schedules are not too
fast for safety, but are for economical
opera ton Last winter. owing to I'M
usual weather conditions. few of the
roads were able 10 operate their trains
according TO the present schedules
great part of the time The railway
managers declare that it is better to
adopt schedules which can be main
tanned. even IL ordinary delays to
trains are encountered. than to disap
point passengers by delivering them
at their destination later than the
en- route

The Milwaukee Meeting Success in an
Experiment.

Chicago, May 27-Experiments
conducted by the officials of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St Paul railroad
have demonstrated that between So
locomotives can be abated by supply
ing the proper appliances The man
agement has decided to install them
alta cost of 100000 or 4 million dol
lars.
The new device is in the nature of a
hollow brick arch. Besides decreas-
ing the amount OF smoke which is
emitted from the locomotive, it is said
the use of the arch has prolonged the
period during which a locomotive may
be used without overhauling.
This is not the first time a form of
the hollow brick arch has been used
on locomotives s NJ FELTON,, presi-
dent of the Chicago & Alton road. was
one of the first to experiment with 1t,
and to use IT successfully When he
went to the Chesapeake & Ohio road
ne equipped all Of his locomotives
with the arch and made the road as
free from coal smoke as an anthra-
cite coal burning line. Later he had
the same thing with the Chicago &
Alton. but the use of the arch was dis
continued to a great extent as the first
arches wore out
The reason railroads have not
hitherto stopped the smoke nuisance
is the original cost and the fact that
when the arch had to be renewed the
locomotives were out of service for
too long a period. In this time when
power is at a premium, operating men
do not like to take engines out of
service
A report which A. y. Lucas of the
Chicago. Milwaukee & St Paul road
has made to the boilermakers' organ
ization shows that his road has abated
rs per cent Of the smoke emitted from
passenger engines and 81 per cent in
freight engines Careful firing will do
away with the bulk of the balance.
The report of Mr. Lucas is said to
prove canc1usfve1y that the railroads
can abate the smoke nuisance in large
terminals if they desire to do so and
can do II with benefit TO Themselves.

SHIPMENT OF ALLIGAToRs.
Three Cars of Saurians Handled by

Kansas City, Mo-, May 27.-Rail-
roads in general can boast of all kinds

to look over the various consignments
made to them. The Kansas City

three cars of live aIligators. The
saurians were caught at Port Arthur.

Ice Famine Averted

Yesterday morning a cOndl- tion in the nature of an ice famine confronted Prescott which called for the most heroic treatment.
 The cause, the treatment and the result came about like this:
 R. P. Arnold is furnished ice by the Hope Ice Co. At this season of the year it takes 1-2 car of ice day to supply Pres cott-a car coming in every other day. Yesterday morning Mir. Arnold was notified by the Hope people that on account of a break down they would be un- able to ship any ice for a few days. The stock in town was about exhausted. Telegrams to Little Rock, Camden, ElDorado and Texarkana brought back the answer that it would be impos- sible to fill an order that day.
 In desperation Mr. Arnold caught the cannon ball south af- ter 10 o'clock for Texarkana and in short while after reaching 
 that place had the entire force of the plant in that city dumping blocks of ice in a car, and in a short space of time the car was in transit for Prescott, reaching here about dark; in fact got here before the Mayor did.
 Now, just what means MT. Ar hold employed to get the goods, even his most intimate friends will never know. Whether he used a big stick, a shot gun, his official title, intimidation or the long green is not as important to a threatened community as the fact that he got the ice.

There is a local end to the sensa-

doctor and deserted family Of small
children. One of the children, Crete.
the eldest daughter, was given over to
the custody Of Mr.. and Mrs. A. B.
Coppock, 1912 West Main street, where
she is still stopping. Mr.. and Mrs. Cop
peck have become very much attached
to the girl, who is a bright child about
10 years old. The court, however, has
ruled that the children must be sur
rendered to their father
When Mrs. Keister deserted her
home, the children were turned over
to Des Moines home finding society.
Now the father wants them. and has
had to go into court to. secure custody;
All of the children have been returned
to the father with the exception OF the.
daughter who is here, and Judge Bren-,,
nan, at Des Moines, has directed that
the girl be brought there at once or

started.
Mr.. Coppock, when asked this NOR
ming relative to the case, said that as
yet. he had not been served with any
such notice, and expected to keep the
girl until he was compelled to give her
up. Clerk of Courts Lounsberry has
also received no order from the court
directing the return of the child.
