Record Run by Schooner.

The threemasted schooner Bertha Walk
er, laden with lumber from Jacksonville,
Fla, was brought into port yesterday morn
Ing by the tug Yerkes after having made q
record run up the coast and to this city.
The schooner sailed from Jacksonville at
o'clock pm. January 18. and, with a favor
ing wind from the southwark, had a good
run up the coast for a day. Then came light
winds and Gains for four days, during
which the schooner made but little progress.
Strong and favorable breezes followed, and
faster than most Of the coasting steamers
the vessel raced past Cape Hatteras and I'D
the coast. passing in the capes at daybreak
Tuesday morning. INHALED by a tug, she
came up the bay and was of Piney Point
when picked up by the tug Yerkes which
brought her to this port She arrived here
early yesterday morning, making the run
from port to port in little over seven
days. This record has seldom been excelled
by vessels coming from the south to this
city. The Walker will be berthed alongside
the schooner Mary A. Hall at the wharf
foot Of 9th street until she can get to q
pier to unload her cargo. She has aboard
several hundred thousand feet of heavy

UNION STATION ITS AIM.
Baltimore Association to Improve
Railroad Facilities.

NEW YORK, January 25-With the de-
termination to have a great union passen-
ger station in Baltimore, so that all steam
railroads entering into the city will have
the one central stopping place. the Associa-
ton to Improve the Railroad Facilities Of
Baltimore was organized yesterday at a
meeting at the builders exchange, attended
by many leading citizens, who also repre-
scented practically every Improvement asso-
citation in the city.
The object Of the association was stated
by Mr.. E. Stanley Gary Of the Municipal
Art Society and the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association, when he offered a
resolution to the effect that commission
Of representative citizens of Baltimore be
appointed by the mayor and city council
to select the most expert engineers in the
world to prepare plans for a proposed union
station for all roads.
Before offering the resolution, which was
adopted after much discussion in which
many valuable suggestions and views were
expressed by some of those present, Mr..
Gary roundly scored the Pennsylvania and
ingly small interest taken by them when
a plan for a proposed station was submit
ted to the presidents of the respective roads
He said that the roads should be made to
look into the question seriously and that a
commission be appointed whereby the rail-
roads will be compelled to give their views
as to the feasibility of one great terminal
after the experts employed by the city have
submitted comprehensive plans.

McCREA RAISES LIMIT.
Pennsylvania Will Employ Men Up
to Forty Years Old.

PHILADELPHIA, January 25 The
Pennsylvania railroad management has de-
cided to change the age limit at which
men may enter the employ of the company
from thirty-five to forty years, and the
stockholders will be asked to approve the
change at their 1nual meeting to be held
In March.
The age limit at which men can enter the
service was fixed when the railroads PEN
sion plan was adopted. 1t was found at
that time that the average age at which
men entered the service was twenty-seven
years. 1t was thought that a minimum
limit of thirty-flve years would afford suf-
fcient margin and permit the retirement Of
employees after thirty years service at the
age Of sixty-fve.
The age limit was soon found to be q
mistake, and the Boston and Maine, the
Chicago and Alton, and the Chicago, Mil
waukee and st. Paul railroads, all OF which
had adopted a system like the Pennsylva-
mia, ignored the thirty-ive-year provision.
In the west, II Is said. the Pennsylvania
company has had difficulty in getting COM
petent men under the age limit in all
branches. and in the mechanical depart
ments everywhere capable men have been
barred because of II.
