tied to the Improvement of old lines,
the extension of short feeders; railroad
investment would not go beyond such
territory as insured immediate returns
on capital, and the era of development
for the west would be confined to the
present transportation systems. There
would be no more undertakings on a
colossal scale such as the Great North
ern. the San Pedro or the Western
Pacific.
The truth is, and 1t is conceded by
the thoughtful everywhere, that the
evils of over-capitaIization in a few in
stances have been utilized to promote
a hysterical cutlery against all the
transportation companies when a very
few of them have been to blame. The
proposal TO make a fixed rule of valu-
alton and base traffic rates on it, is as
preposterous as it would be to fix in
advance the earnings an individual
may make for himself An undertake
ing which would stagger the ablest of
accountants ana railroad experts is
proposed glibly by men VINO know
nothing practical either of accounts or
railroad investments. If such a rule
can be established as law, entrusted to
theorists for enforcement and used as
a power in national politics, the day of
real enterprise and daring in new rail-
road projects will be ended.

LITTLE GIRL SEVERELY BURNED
Taken to Hospital, Where She is In
Critical Condition.

Malfssa Gordon, six-year-old colored
child, was severely burned about her body
and legs yesterday afternoon. The child
was in a room occupied by her mother
at 222S 9th street northwest. Considerable
excitement was caused in the vicinity by the
screams of the child, and a large crowd
collected. Some of those who went to the
house extinguished the blaze after most
of the clothing had been burned from the
little ones body, but not before she had
received severe burns.
1t is stated that the stove in Mrs. Cor
don's room had became overheated. and
the child's clothing came in contact with
the stove.
When she screamed a number of pedes-
TRANS went to her assistance, and one of
them turned in an alarm of fire, summoning
several companies of the fire department.
There was only slight amount of DAM
age caused to the property. When the
eighth precinct patrol wagon reached the
house the police were told that the ambu-
lance had been telephoned for, but Capt.
Doyle said he would not wait for the am
bulance. He found the child had been SER
lously burned, and it was believed she had
inhaled the flames.
The little girl was lying upon sofa with
an overcoat thrown over her when the
moved the coat and wrapped her in a
blanket carried her in his arms to the
patrol wagon. and had her conveyed to the
hospital. Mrs Gordon was not at home
at the time the fire occurred, the child be-
ing alone 1t was stated at the hospital
last night that the latter was in a critical
condition, and that recovery was doubtful.

The mercury in the thermometers took
toboggan slide last night, and by 1880
O'Clock the street temperature, as register
ed al Affieck's, was 20 degrees above zero
and still going down. That was drop OF
II degrees in seven hours. The weather
bureau prediction was that the temperature
would not stop its downward course until
it had reached the 10-degree mark this
morning.
Real winter scenes were in evidence on
the streets of Washington last night, in
striking contrast with those of few even
ings ago. when balmy conditions prevailed.
Pedestrians who were out in the candle
light hours did not tarry by the wayside,
as had been their won't but scurried along
in the icy north wind. But scant crowds
attended the open-air meetings of the re-
vivalists at 10th street and Pennsylvania
avenue and on Market space. and the few
outdoor singers shivered as they sang.
There was a hustle observable in the
throngs on the business thorouShfares. and
those who had no urgent business to call
them out into the chilling night atmos-
phere remained indoors and Rugged the
stoves, as it We're. The crisp air caused

POSITION OF FORESTER.
Appointed to New Office of Pennsyl-
yania Railroad.

Mr.. f. A. Sterling. assistant forester in
the forest service in charge of the office of
forest extension, has accepted the position
of forester with the Pennsylvania railroad.
He will assume his new duties March I.
The appointment. it is explained, is the
result of an investigation made by the
forest service for the company last year,
which contained recommendations for the
management of their existing timber lands
and for the purchase of other reproducing
lands The company has bees experiment.
ing in tree planting. On the basis of the
experiments and of the report the position
of forester has been created.
This is said to be the nrst appointment
of a technically trained forester by an
American railroad, and shows recognition
of the necessity of practical forestry. The
ADOPTION of forestry by commercial organi-
cations has been prophesied for many
years.
The work in the beginning Will be plant
ing on waste lands and the management of
the timber land now owned by the company.
More important, however, will be the shap-
ing of policy for the purchase of addi-
tional lands, particularly those now COW
cred with second growth loblolly pine in
eastern Maryland and Virginia, and pre-
servative treatment to increase the life of
the ties used. Since the company uses
5000, 900 ties per annum on the lines east
of Pittsburg alone, 1t will require nearly
10000 acres of well-stocked loblolly pine
to supply the need.

BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE.
District Commissioners to Appear
Next Thursday.

Commissioner Mcfarland was notified
yesterday that the Senate committee on ap-
preparations will begin it's conferences with
the Commissioners upon the District of
Columbia appropriation bill next Thursday.
The Commissioners will ask the Senate
committee to put in the District appropria-
ton bill those items of their estimates
which the House omitted. aggregating in
all 81, 10000 The items omitted by the
House include the high pressure fire protec-
ton service, number of suburban sewers,
fire department buildings. school sites and
buildings, Fairgrounds. archaeological lab
oratory for the health department. hospital
for chronic cases and other improvements.
The Commissioners will contend that the
District revenues are ample to provide for
all the current expenditures which they
had recommended and also for q reason
able payment on account of the money
advanced by the United States treasury
to the District on its share of the cost
Of extraordinary municipal improvements.
and will once more ask that the relations
between the treasury and the District with
respect to these advances be put upon a
business basis. They will maintain that
the estimates for current expenditures
ought not to be cut in the attempt to make
the District do what is not done anywhere
else, pay for permanent extraordinary i'm
provements out of current revenues.

Victory for the Underwood.
Great Event in the History of the Type
writer.

Great Event in the History of the Type
writer
No class of mechanism has involved in
like period of time a greater amount of liti-
CATION than that of the typewriter. The his
tory of the writing machine is, indeed
history of suits and cou1ter-suitS among
the various concerns engaged in their con-
struc.;on. and the complicated mechanical
points involved have puzzled numbers of
Patent Office experts as we | as judges and
jures.
BY far the most important litigation of
this class is that in which the Underwood
Typewriter Company has just won signal
victory over the Remington Typewriter peo-
pie and others and the former company
and its legion of friends are quite happy
over the event.
This litigation has centered upon the tab
ulating mechanism used on typewriters, and
from many points of view the latest victory
of the Underwood Company is the greatest
event in it's history. The Underwood ma
chine is today recognized by many in indus
trial and professional life as the best. fast
est, most reliable and durable machine in
the market, and the fact that the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals has sus-
tanned the companys patent rights in such
a conclusive fashion places it in a more
commanding position than ever before.

Cause of Complaint Removed.

Building Inspector Ashford reported to
the Commissioners yesterday that the new
engine recently installed at the garage of
the United States Express Company, be-
tween Sd and 4th streets and G and III
streets northeast, is run without vibration
or noise and should cause no ANNOYANCE
to residents in that vicinity. The old en-
gines at this garage have been the source
of much complaint from occupants of sur
rounding buildings, who declared that the
noise from vibration was SO great that
they were not only annoyed during the day
but their sleep was disturbed.
Several weeks ago a delegation of these
protestants requested that the Commission
ers revoke the permit Of the express COM
pany, prohibiting the running of the en-
CINE, and as a result the officials of the
garage promised to install new machinery
which would remedy vibration and remove
all cause for complaint The building in
spector is satisfied that this has been
done.
