LINES ARE TIGHTENED.
Commission Lays Down More Rules
fog Filing Tariffs.

Complaints are being made by the in
terstate commerce commission that the
number of applications made for per-
mission to file special tariffs, without
the statutory thirty days notice, have
been steadily Increasing, whereas the
commission expected at the beginning
that they would steadily increase. The
commission has found it necessary to
tighten the lines considerably, and has
issued a new circular on the subject
specifying the cases in which such leave
will be granted.
Among other things the roads are no
titled in this connection that simple
desire on the part of one road to meet
the rates of competing line will not
be considered a sufficient reason for
granting such special permission. APP
plications for special permission will be
considered only on receipts of verified
statements, and not simply on tele-
graphic requests as heretofore. Failure
of certain roads to file such verified ap-
plications, when the Geographic re-
quests have been complied with, has led
to the adoption of this rule.
The commission also specifies the
cases in which it will permit roads to
make reparation on formal complaint
to shippers who have been charged I'M
reasonable rates. The commission is
anxious to assist in the settlement of
equitable claims of shippers without
formal complaints, where such can be
done lawfully but it will not permit any
such settlement to be made where dis
elimination against any shipper or ship
pers would thereby be created.
Attention of the roads is called to the
great number of cases in which tar
ifs are mailed to the commission with
out sufficient postage being attached.
Heretofore the secretary of the commits
sion has paid such postage out of his
own pocket in expectation that the de-
linquent roads would rectify the matter
when their attention was called to 1t.
So many roads have failed to come
to time however. that the commission
has adopted a rule that no insufficient
postage may in any such cases be paid
by any employee of the commission, but
the communication will be allowed to
remain in the hands Of the postoffice

Kansas City Southern Makes
Wonderful Showing.
There Has Been a Marvellous
Gain in Its Earnings.
TRAFFIC EXPANSION.
Net Increase for Ten Months Is
Placed at 81, 2SS,O21.
Other Items of Interest to
Railway People.

For new road principally depend
ent upon its local traffic for it's in
| come, and which at the time of its
building passed through a territory
wholly undeveloped, the Kansas City
Southern has been making a wonder
full showing of late in regard to its
earnings and the expansion of its
traffic. The original promoters of the
road were severely criticised for en-
gaglng in what was described as a
wildcat enterprise, but events have
proved that they built considerably
better than their critics knew.
Since the dissolution of the voting
trust, which was created about nine
years ago, when E. H. Hartman
gained control of the property, it has
been in a state of transition. and was
subjected to a good deal of neglect.
Since two years ago, however, when
the present Independent management
obtained control, the property has had
an opportunity really to show what
there is in it. For the fiscal year now
drawing to a close it has been able to
earn the full 6 per cent on it's pre-
ferred stock and about 5 per cent for
it's common stock.
For the ten months already reported
gross earnings of the road increased by
$1,222,730, or a little more than 19 per
cent. Owing TO radical reductions
which the management has been able
to make in operating expenses. net
earnings show an increase of $685.
021, or more than 81 per cent a show
ing which, even in prosperous times
like the present. is something phe-
nomenal.
This increase in net began with the
opening of the fiscal year and has
been continuous throughout it. Au-
gust was the best month in the ten.
Net earnings for that month showed
an increase of 1913 per cent as COM
pared with the same month in the
previous year. July showed an in
crease in net of 135 per cent. Oc-
tober and April also passed the 100
per cent increase mark, the first hav-
ing 100 per cent to it's credit and the
latter ia per cent. The lowest in
crease for any month in the ten was
SIS per cent. in November.
OF course the rapid development of
southwestern territory now in pro-
gress is the real secret of the roads
prosperity, aside from the able way in
which it's affairs are being handled,
and as provision has been made for
the extension of the system to New
Orleans still fuller advantage is to be
taken of that development
When it's new extensions are in
operation, there will be no road in the
country better located for availing
itself of the advantages of a con-
tinually expanding traffic situation.
It's lines will pass through the very
center of the new lumber. oil, rice and
grain regions of the southwest.

RATE CLERKS WORKING HARD.
It's Herculean Task to Get Out Two
Cent Tariffs.

Chicago. June 25.-As a result of the
determinat ton of the railroad presidents
to not oppose public sentiment at this
time, railroad rate clerks are working
night and day to put passenger tariffs
on the 2-cent basis, the first effort be-
ing to comply with the new laws now
effective in various states, and then to
adjust the situation to the determine
ton of the conference of executives,
held here Friday, to apply the 2-cent
rate to interstate traffic.
The task is almost herculean, and al
though the interstate commerce law
requires 80 days notice of reduction of
rates, it is believed that the present
situation will be classed as an "emer-
gency within the meaning of the law,
and the roads permitted to put the re-
duced rates into effect as rapidly as
they are compiled by the rate clerks.
Thousands of tariffs will have to be
compiled before the work is compile
ted.
Nominally, interstate rates are sup
posed to be upon a 3-cent basis, but
the roads actually have been receiving
but trifie over cents a mile, due to
reductions to conventions, etc.
Western roads will be hit hardest by
tied territory will not respond to the
stimulus of cheaper rates as will the
more thickly inha bited eastern districts.
The reduction of one-way and return
trip tickets to basis of cents a mile
may cause an increase in travel which
will more than offset the special bust
ness created by convention and other
rates, but the officers of western roads
doubt it.

COffeyville to Have a New and
Unique Factory.
Will Be the Only Plant of It's
Kind in the Word.
CASKETS 6 FEET LONG.
For Adults One Half Inch Thick
and Weigh 200 Pounds.
Said to Hav e Especial PreserY-
ing and Sanitary Features.

Coffeyville. June 25.-J. NJ. Stafford
of Petersburg, Indiana, is in Coffey-
Vile perfecting arrangements. for the
establishment of a glass casket fac
tory. The company has been incor-
porated under the les of Arizona and
is now being financed. Ninety thou
sand dollars worth of stock will be
thrown upon the market at once and
viii doubtless meet with a ready sale
as this is the only mandatory of its
kind in the world.
Adult caskets will be feet long,
one-half inch in thickness and weigh
from 200 to ESQ pounds. The price
viii not exceed that of the now popu-
lar metallic casket which ranges from
$50 to $3.50. Aside from it's great COM
mercial possibilities the casket has
sanitary and preserving features and IL
may be said of it for the benefit of the
skeptical that when made of tempered
glass it is not susceptible to heat.
The casket will be sealed with a
soluble glass which is liquid when cola
becoming CONCEALED only when it
comes in contact with air. Just before
sealing phosphorus is shot into the
casket This consumes all the oxygen
and completes a perfect vacuum, thus
adding permanently to the preserving
features.
The incorporators have taken out
patents on both the casket and moulds.

UNIFORM CODE OF SIGNALS.
By 1t Engineers May Run on Any
System.

Much Roadway was made toward
having adopted a uniform system of
signals for all railroads by the signal
and interlocking committee of the
American Railway Engineering and
Maintenance of Way association, which
met in Buffalo recently. The plan will
enable an engineer to take an engine
anywhere, run it across the continent,
if necessary, and be able to read the
signals on any road.
The committee is working on an out
line approval at the last national meet
ing of the association in Chicago in
March. 1t will meet in September in
Philadelphia and hopes to complete it's
work by December 81.
The movement contemplates the prac-
teal revolutionizing of the present sig
nal system. The principal indications
proposed are:
On all signals comforting or restrict
ing rights red light shall be the night
indication for stop, a yellow light for
caution and a green light for clear
track.
The day indications for somaphore
signals shall be given in the upper
right-hand quadrant as follows: The
semaphore arm horizontal shall indi-
cate stop; inclined upward As degrees,
caution, and inclined upward go de-
grees, proceed.

ABOUT AS BAD AS SALOONS.
Beer Wagons From Missouri Supply
Kansas City. Kan, Thoroughly.

Kansas City, Kan, June 25.-Thir-
ty-one persons were tried in the police
court Monday, sixteen for drunkenness
and nearly all the others for causes
that arose from the sale Of liquor;
twenty-four tried for drunkenness
Monday, week ago, of forty persons
arrested.
That is the record of the city since
brewery wagons engaged in Inter
state commerce" began to distribute
beer in the streets Saturdays and Sat
urday nights. While this beer was not
actually peddled in the streets, it was
delivered in large quantities to houses
where it was illegally distributed and,
as a result, the need for police and po-
lice court has increased.
Previously to Monday two weeks
ago not more than six or seven pris-
oners were entered on the police dock
ct Saturday night and Sunday There
were few disturbances.
Saturday nights" a patrolman said
beer wagons loaded to the limit cross
the state line from Missouri. Although
these wagons are supposed to sell only
on order, no one seems to have the
least trouble in getting all the beer
wanted. Men go to an extreme now
more than during the time of the
joints, because they seem to think that
every drink is the last drink Most of
the men wouldn't get drunk at all if
the stuff was offered Them

RECORD BREAKING BEET CROP.
Prospects Around Garden City Are of
the Best.

Garden City, Kan, June 25.-Pros-
poets for q record breaking beet crop
in Kansas are better than ever ac-
cording to r. P. Davie, who has just
inspected the holdings of the United
States Sugar & Land company. The
first water was taken from the big
reservoir owned by the company last
week. The reservoir is five miles long,
one and one-half miles wide and
averages 80 feet deep. 1t will hold
water sufficient for the irrigation of
112, 600 acres of land.
The farmers are feeling much bet
ter since the water was taken from
the reservoir said Mr.. Davie. MANY
of them believed that it would be i'm
possible to store so much water and
irrigate the land, but now they are
thoroughly convinced that the scheme
will be successful
The company has 1880 acres of
sugar beets planted in the vicinity of
Garden City. The harvesting of the
crop will begin about September l.
The company has a large beet sugar
factory at Garden City and will be
able to handle its own crop as well as
those of all farmers in the region.

CH1NAMEN TO BUILD ROAD.
Syndicate of Them Get Concessions IL
Old Mexico.

Mexico City, Mexico, June ga syn
dictate of Cinnamon, headed by DR.. ]. w.
Linn, a heavy stakeholder of the Banco
de China Mexico of Torreon, has
been granted a concession by the Mexi-
can government to build an electric rail-
way between Torreon and Matamoros.
The road will be extended to other
towns of the Nazas river valley and
will be about twenty miles long. The
survey is now being made and its con-
struction is to commence soon. There
are a number of wealthy Cinnamon in
the Laguna district, in which Torreon Is
situated. An electric street railway sys-
tenn is being constructed in Torreon by
a Chinese company. They have estab-
lished strong bank in that city and
are large property holders.
DR.. Linn and associates recently ap-
piled to the Mexican government for a
concession to establish line of steam
ers between the ports of the western
coast of Mexico and China. He says
that plans have been arranged for put
ting number of large vessels into this
new service as soon as the concession
is granted.

FRIsCO's TEST OF OIL.
1t Proves to Be Most Satisfactory for
Engines.

Muskogee. L. r.. June 25.-After test
ing crude oil obtained in the Cherokee
oil fields in the engines of the Frisco
railroad. in place of coal, Frisco Off
Gals declare it is pronounced success,
and is in many ways far superior to
coal Oil is now being burned in the
engines of this road out of Kansas City
as far south as Springfield. The first
test of the new fuel was made in pas
senger engines two weeks ago, and
since that time not a pound of coal
has been used. The road has been
burning oil in its switch engines near
Sapulpa for two years. According to
a Frisco man there is little difference
in the cost of oil and coal as fuel, but
the former is so far superior in many
ways that there is no comparison. BY
its use all ashes and cinders are COM
pleteIy done away with, thus increas-
ing the possible work obtained from
each engine. 1t produces practically no
smoke, and, best of all, it is to be de-
pended upon at all times. No matter
how good a grade of coal was used it
was impossible to avoid getting bad
lot sometimes, and all efforts of the
fireman were unavailable to keep up
steam.

A GALENA MURDER CASE.
Charge of Serious Character Placed
Against the ex-Cfty Marshal.


Charge of Serious Character Placed
Against the ex-City Marshal.
= Galena, Kan, June 25.-Ex-City Mar
shall Charles Garner, recently arrested
here for alleged completely in the rob-
ond-hand dealer, has been bound over
to district court in the sum of $4,000
on charge of murder in the first de-
gree. N. c. Malone, another second
hand dealer, turned states evidence
and accused Garner, R. d. Booth and
Ed Jones of committing the crime.
Jones died in the county Jail of blood
poisoning shortly after the hour set for
his preliminary.
Frick was an eccentric character
whose antipathy toward banks was
known, and was suspected of carrying
large sums of money on his person,
and was the victim of a Job" Ac-
ccrding to MalOne's confession he help
ed plan the robbery and Garner was
indicted to lead Prick to an isolated
section of the city under the pretext of
finding some cheap jewelry stolen from
the victims store shortly before the ex-
piration of Gamers term of Office.
When near the place where the jew
elry was found Prick and the ex-off1cer
were held up and the former relieved
of about $500. In attempting to defend
himself Prick was shot in the neck, an
injury which caused death a few days
later. In addition to the confession of
Malone the parties under arrest were
also indicted by Tricks dying state
ment.
Following his arrest on a charge of
murder and the dismissal of the charge
previous to making full confession,
Malone was arrested for grand larceny
and is also bound over to the district
cOIrf
