With Condition of Local Erie
Yards.
SECTIONMAN IS INJURED
Falls on Ice and When
Found was Nearly Dead.
Private Ownership of Cars May
Cease to be an Advantage to the
Coal Companies.

"It seems as though our yards
here are not properly laid out.
lhey arc strung cut for several
miles making 1t almost impossible
to conveniently equip them," said
an Erie official Thursday morning
in conversation. Continuing he
said, eve have spent thousands OF
dollars improving and experiment
ing here and yet our troubles seem
to have just began We have too
many blockades of freight trains
in the west yards which seems to be
due to the fact that the yards are
not wide enough. Thc problem here
is certainly pcrplexing one and
is necessitating meetings of the
higher officials and yet no definite
solutions has been reached. "
The official furthermore stated
that there would be meeting of
supcrintcndents here next week at
which time there viii be some ar
rangemcnts made 10 relieve the con-
gested condition IN the yards.
Tonic Segannlus, an Erie Italian
sectionmMn, was painfully injured
late last night Tonic was sailing
about three sheets in the wind and
was homeward bound 10 his little
home III box ear when he slipped
on the Ice and fcl. When he was
found Il half hour later by some of
his companions. he had bad cash
in his head AMI was almost frozen
to death. He was carried to his
home and his fellow countrymen ad-
ministered the necessary surgical
and medical attention.
Leroy Tuttle. general Erie re-
pairman of inteflockers, with head
quarters at Gallon. made an inspec-
ton of the two new interlocking
plants in the west yards today. He
reported them in good condition
and recommended some slight i'm
provemcnts.
The Erie and Big Four trains
were from one to three hours late
today and impatient passengers were
quite conspicuous obout the union
depot all day.
A meeting Of tilr Central Freight
association was held in Chicago yes
terday for the purpose of discussing
the coal freight rates. So far as is
known no definite changes were
made.
Private ownership of railroad cars
in Ohio will cease to be an advan-
tage to coal companies if ruling
made by state railway commission
is sustained by the courts.
The commission held that where
a private coal company owns ears
and uses them exclusively for then
own shipments, to the detriment of
smaller concerns, which the COM
pany IS unaOle TO furnish cars SUI
ficient to handle tneir business, all
such private cars owned must be
apportioned by the railroads among
all shippers on the road pro rata
The opinion Of the commission
was that It was directly against
the interests Of fair play to permit
q condition whcr, small producer
might be cut off completely from
the market through no fault of his
own, while a competitor who chanc-
ed TO lhaye money sufficient to buy
his own cars was profiting by the
inability Of the lailroad to care fol-
all it's consumers.

chloroform to all above that age. The
petition will be passed upon at the
next meeting of the council. Its con-
tents as presented to Mayor William
McGann are as follows:
"We, the unmarried women OF
Clark, petition the city council of said
city an ordinance dem anding of all
unmarried men tax to be graduated
as follows: From 20 to % years, So:
from . to 35 years, $40: from 35 to 40
years, $40: over 40 years, use chloro.
form in large doses.
"We, the petitioners, further assert
that bachelors are barnacle on the
growth of society. They are of no
earthly use except as pallbearers.
We are not advocating such law
because we are single. That concerns
US the least. We hope immediate &C.
tion will be taken by the council in
the matter and that all newspapers
