RESIGNATION OF EDWARDS
Umati||a Superintendent Finally
Shuff|ed Out Of Agency
WASHINGTON, May 13.-Maior O.

WASHINGTON, May 13.-Major O.
&c. Edwards. superintendent of the
Umatilla Indian reservation, has re-
signed and his resignation has been ac-
cepted by the interior department. The
office refuses to announce who his
successor will be. though it is under
stood that the appointment has been
made.
Major Edwards will be sent to a diff
ferent station. 1t is understood, and
will not lose by the change as his next
charge is reported to be even more
important than the one from which
he has just resigned. The career of
Major Edwards at the Umatila reser-
walton has been a stormy one. Acting
under instructions of the department
he made radical changes in the land
leasing system in vogue on the reser-
walton and by it gained the enmity of
the reservation farmers who before,
had had it all their own way in their
trafficking with the Indian alottees.
Prior to Edwards time the farmers
made their own terms with the In
dians and paid them as they saw fit.
Charges were made that the Indians
We're not receiving fair treatment and
Edwards was ordered to change the
system of leasing, to ratify all leases
made and to compel all payments to
be made to him personally, as superin-
tendent of the agency and guardian of
the Indians. He enforced the orders
and met with the bitter resentment of
farmers and business men at PendletOn
as well. All manner of charges were
made against the agent but investiga-
ton by the department eXonerated him.
The result of the investigation was
simply TO draw the lines tighter.
Major Edwards would have resigned
earlier. it is said as he had been Of
fered the place to be filled by him. but
he refused to leave under fire. The
newly appointed agent will continue the
policy followed by his predecessors.

SOLVING TRAFFIC DEMANDS
Car Shortage Problem Being Net
by Huge Orders

CHICAGO, May 10, effective meas
ures have been taken to meet the
heavy transportation demands on the
lines of the Union and Southern Paci-
fic systems. Not only is the number
of cars and locomotives, side and main
track being largely increased, but old
equipment is being sent to the scrap
heap, and each new car and locomotive
is of greater capacity. Improved meth
DDS of handling traffic have been intro
duced with such success that these two
systems now hold the highest record
for car movement on the basis of the
number of miles their cars make in a
year.
For delivery this year the Union Pa
cific has ordered 144 locomotives, 63
passenger cars, 5000 refrigerator ears
and 1880 other freight cars, the aggre-
gate cost of which will be $14, 900.
The Southern Pacific, to provide for
increasing traffic and new lines, has
ordered 1877 locomotives 1913 passenger
cars, 5000 refrigerator cars and 4108
! other freight cars. Together with the
three new freight and passenger steam
ers building for this road, it's new

Facilities Ahead of Demand.
Old and inferior equipment on the
Southern Pacific. to the number of 1927
locomotives and 1899 freight cars, was
withdrawn from service in the past
year to be replaced with rolling stock
from which much better service can
be secured. The average carrying ca
nacty of the cars on the two systems
has been increased II 900 pounds in five
years. the total new freight car equip
ment ordered in this time, 10000, being
equal in carrying capacity to 1OOO0
cars of the standard type used 4 few
wears ago. These new additions ar" far
greater in tonnage capacity than the
entire equipment owned by the two
systems only four years ago
Anticipating to great extent the
increased traffic to be handled, the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific in
five years have purchased 1894 lOcOmO-
tives and 4O196 new freight cars, rep
resenting an expenditure of over $50
