TALK OF CURTAILMENT
BECAUSE OF THE NEW TWo.CENT
FARE BILL.
3. 6 o. Will Do Nothing If the Traf.
fic Continues to Hold Up to
Present Standard.

There is still considerable specula-
ton as to whether the Baltimore &
Ohio will cut down its passenger ser
vice through West Virginia on account
OF the new two-cent fare law going
into effect the latter part of next
month, and there is a great deal of
publicity being given the matter
throughout the state An official of
the passenger department of the road
in speaking of the matter made the
statement that there was little likeli-
hood of the company curtailing their
passenger service until after the new
law went into effect and then not
until after there had been a thorough
trial and it was shown that the service
was not paying.
When the new law went into effect
in Ohio there was the same talk about
the passenger service being cmtailed,
but nothing ever came of it. In fact,
on the other hand the railroads were
not only compelled to put on addi-
tional cars on some of the local trains,
but in a number of instances it was
absolutely necessary to put on addi-
tional trains. 1t is clear to one with
common sense that the railroads are
not going to cut down their passenger
service until they find that the new
law in West Virginia has done them
some harm and that the trains which
they are running are not bringing in
a sufficient amount of revenue to make
them show up a balance on the right
side of the ledger, and with the excep-
ton of few places in the state where
the population is very sparse, it is not
likely that there will be any decrease
in traffic, but on the other hand that
it will increase to a considerable ex-
tent.

CHANGE IN 3. G. @. PLANS
Will Not Use the New Station Until
Next October.

For the second time the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad has changed its plan
to occupy the new union station. Last
summer it was announced that the
company would begin using the sta
ton in October, but this was not done,
and about month ago it was stated
officially that the Baltimore G Ohio
trains would enter and Lave the new
station on May /. Commissioner Mac
farland has received a letter from
President Oscar Murray in which he
says:
"On further consideration, in view
of the inconvience to patrons of the
cluded undesirable for this company
to undertake the contemplated tenn
porary occupation of the terminal sta
ton, and the present intention is to
delay until it is sufficiently complet-
ed to permit the entrance of all the
companies. The expectation now is
that this can be accomplished by Octo-
Der next"
While the station itself win undoubt-
edly be practically ready for use by
all the railroads next October the
street car facilities to the depot will
still be very crude Congress, at its
last session refused to enact any leg
islation authorizing the street railway
companies to extend their lines to the
depot, and if the necessary authority
is given as soon as congress meets
next December it win be probably
some time in the spring before the
car lines can be extended

The mayor and council of Bruins
wick have restrained the Baltimore &

tracks across three streets of the
town, which the company desires to
do to connect its freight yards.
The council, supported by citizens of

the railroad encroaches too much upon
the public driveway to the bridge over
the Potomac river, and asked the com.
pany to open up another approach to
the bridge. The company refused.

DR.. Minghini Applies Compound In

Ashes-Valuable Discovery.

Since the discovery by John ELL
more, OF Altoona. Pa, that coal ashes
can be utilized as fuel If treated
chemically, inventive minds have
been turning their thoughts into that
channel to discover the secret. The
report comes from Altoona tnat some
druggists in that city have discovered
the secret They have given it to the
world as containing the following in
gradients:
Common salt, one pound.
Oxalic acid, two ounces.
Water, one gallon.
1t is said that coal ashes treated
with this compound viii produce heat
and light. New York chemists have
experimental with the ingredients and
have decided that there is nothing in
it,
1t would seem that their conclusions
are incorrect, for Or. Minghini. of
this city, who is interested in anything
that promises to reduce the expense
OF running an automobile, has used
the compound as suggested and be-
lieves there is some value in it.
In his first experiment he placed
some Of the compound over the end of
a clay pipe and immersed the whole
in water with the stem projecting He
found that the water failed to produce
gas as it would have done had the
bowl of the pipe contained carbon.
He then lit the material itself and
found that it would burn It did more.
1t threw ont a gas very similar in
odor to acetylene gas, He found that
the gas would burn. He considers the
discovery of value and says that if
the gas can be confined in some way
that it will do away with acetylene
gas as a means for furnishing light
for automobile lamps since it will be
much less expensive. He proposes to
conduct experiments to ascertain some
way in which to confine the gas.
