RAILROADS AIDING

Free Transportation for China Relief

Special to The He-.ld.

Special to The He-:ld.
CHICAGO, April PA solid train of
thirty Union Pacific cars, containing
1000 tons Of flour for the Chinese fam
Inc sufferers is being rushed across the
country in time to be loaded aboard the
United States transport Buford, which
sails for the orient on the 30th. Free
transportation of the shipment is pro-
vided by the carriers who handle it on
it's way to the coast.
Announcing the progress of the plans
under it's charge for relief of the Chi
nese famine sufferers, the Christian
Herald says:
when the efforts of the Christian
Herald to secure from the United States
government vessel for the transpacific
carriage OF a cargo donated by this
paper to the starving Chinese were
crowned with success, and the army
transport Buford was assigned, the
question arose, How shall railway
transportation of the 10000 barrels of
-four, bought in Minneapolis from the
Mississippi to the dock at San Fran
cisco be arranged for without a serious
drain upon the funds set apart for pur-
chasing additional food supplies?' Rail-
way freightage on the thousand tons
meant an expenditure Of nearly $4,000,
and $4,000 If applied to food purchase
meant the salvation of fifteen thousand
lives.
I'm this dilemma it was decided to
appeal to Mr.. Hartman, head of the
Union Pacific system, and Mr.. Hughitt,
president of the Chicago & Northwest
ern, whose roads form a connecting line
between Minneapolis and San Fran
cisco. Frankly and simply the facts in
the case were put before thc-e rulers OF
the rail and as frankly the query pre-
sented, What will you-what can you
do to help?' Response was instant and
far in excess of the highest hopes; We
will take the thousand tons free, was
the reply,
''In the broad sense, and to those
possible Of imagination, it IS vel. nigh
impossible to gauge the greatness of the
results this generous gift shall aid in
securing"

WASHINGTON, April 24.-The In

willingness of the Sioux Indians at the
Cheyenne reservation to lease about
100000 acres of their land to the band
of 300 Utes who left their reservation
in Utah last summer and who wintered
at Camp Meade.
Nothing has been heard as to the
attitude of the Utes toward this prop
osition, but the fact that they have
expressed a determination to remain
near where they are now leads to the
conclusion that they will accept.
The bureau will put no obstacle in

When questioned as to their object
in filing the papers and requiring their
services upon Mr.. Farley, Attorney
Fitzgerald this evening stated to a
Herald reporter that they intended the
procedure to net them ten votes, which
when added to the votes they intended
to gain in the general recount, will give
their candidate a seat in the mayoralty
chair. If the votes are deducted from
the Farley ballot, the plurality of Mr..
Farley will be weakened and the OBJ
stacle placed in the road of Mr.. Water
house at once lessened.
The votes are challenged solely on the
grounds that the men who cast them
had no right to cast their ballot in the
election Just passed. 1t is claimed in
some of the cases that the men were
not in the city a sufficient length OF
time to allow them legally 20 place their
name on the great register and there
fore not long enough to make electors
out of them. 1t is thought that the men
will be found to have Illegally cast their
ballot and some serious charges may
grow out of the muddle If that fact is
substantiated.
In order to carry out the design with
which the papers, served today were
filed it will first be necessary to prove
to the court that the votes were
illegally cast Then the court will or
illegally cast. Then the court will
order the men whose vote was
illegal to appear before 1t and swear
his vote. The vote being determined
by the court in this manner will deduct
from the total of ballots polled by the
candidate for whom it was cast.
These questions are not answered by
the Waterhouse faction.
1t will be noticed that the precincts
named are the following: Five, Eight,
Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Fourteen
and Sixteen. The remaining precincts
of the sixteen in which votes were
polled include the strongest Waterhouse
precincts. 1t is thought then that the
Waterhouse forces will concentrate
their attack on the weaker precincts.
The following table will show the
strength of the Farley vote in the pre-
cincts against which there was no at
tack. The figures do not include the
trifling vote cast for Candidate Hicks,
who ran on the Socialist ticket during
the election:
