MISSION BOARD MUST RErRENCH
Or Violate a Strict INTERPRETATION of the
NJ. e. Church Canons.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 13.--Because of a
debt of $4,000 hanging over the Meth
odist Episcopal board of foreign mis-
sions in session here that body must
either retrench to the extent of $40 900
in making appropriations for the for
eign mission field or violate a strict in
depreciation of the laws of the church.
which say that the board shall not APP
propriate more money than the income
Of the foreign mission board during the
previous year. This condition is due to
the separating of the foreign and the
home mission societies during the past
church year. The committee on gem
eral appropriation will report in favor
of violating the strict Interpretation of
the law and 1t is expected It's action will
be endorsed in the general meeting be-
cause a curtailmeDt. of 600 in the
income would mean a vast reduction in
the number Of missionaries in all for
eign fields.
The conference appropriated $26300 to
the support of missionary bishops, $1S,-
coo to the support of retired missionaries
and the widows and orphans of mis-
sionaries, $25, 900 for incidental needs of

lives in First avenue west. Since last

There are SO hotels in the system of
Harvey houses on the lines of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and ST.
Louis & San Francisco railroads. These
are the only lines where Fred Harvey
has hotels at present but 1t is the be-
lief of many people that this famous
concern will soon open hotel in New
York city and will have a line of hotels
along some line of railroad. possibly
the New York Central, from that city
to Chicago. A line of diners would also
be equirped with a Harvey service. 1t
is known that the New York Central
lines have for years tried to arrange
for the Harvey management of the
dining service for the entire Four Track
system. 1t is probable that this may
be done and that one of the finest of
the fine hotels in New York city may
be ,ander the management of the Har-
Vey system.
Certain 1t is, though, that the houses
along these two roads at the present
time mean a big business. The COM

South American horse hair. The quail
ity is of the finest and it is said they
cost about $40 to manufacture.
Recently this factory sent a large or
der of mattresses to Needles, CAL, and
some are being made now for two new
houses in California and two new ones
down on the line of the Pecos valley
division in New Mexico.
The Santa F'e has a list of Harvey
houses now at a distance of about loo
miles apart all the way from Kansas
City to California. There is no chance
to miss meal. A train cannot be far
away from some of the houses at all
times. Besides dining cars are run on
two of the through trains.
IT is found that these houses are so
highly patronized that new additions
are being built to many of them. rms

in Hutchinson makes work for good

it may be informed and recommend to
congress whether the acquisition of
stocks by railroad companies in other
companies or by their officers shall be
prohibited. Furthermore, under Sec
ton 20 of the interstate commerce act
it is the duty of the commission to re-
quire reports of railways, showing all
the details of its capital stock, the
amount paid therefore, the divisions
paid, the funded and floating debts,
cost and value of carriers property,
franchises and equipment, and COM
plete exhibit of the financial operations
of such carrier each year. Counsel in
the brief declared that the commission
has a right to inquire not only to the
cost and value of the railways, but of
all securities and other property pur-
chased, from whom purchased and
whether purchased in good faith, or
whether the Union Pacific has been
used as a banking house for its Off

The commission had a right to re-
uuire Mr.. Hartman to disclose whether
he had been dealing with his own COM
pany: whether the stocks were pur-
selling them to the Union Pacific rail-
road for what they cost him, as bearing
on the value of the securities and as
bearing on the recommendation
the commerce commission should make
to congress with view to prohibiting
such transactions by officials of inter-
state carriers. The value of the prop
erty; its cost and the good faith of the
purchase; whether it was the result of
a bona fide purchase or fraudulent
transaction with it's directors, bears on
the rates the company shall charge be-
cause it has a right to earn reason

property used in carrying on business.
