That 2-cent passenger fares In ONO
are an unqualified success both Tor
the public and the railroads, Is con-
clusively proved by reports made to
the Ohio railroad commission by the
roads themselves in the first compre-
hensive detail of the general opera
ton of 2-cent fare anywhere with
in the United States. The Ohio law.
which was the pioneer became ef-
fective March 10, 1906.
The figures show that under the
operation of the present rate railroads
made net gain in Ohio passenger
receipts of $1,32O,2 ,2S2 .46 in 1907 over
1906. when the first three months
under the 2-cent fare law were in
cluded in the report which, in each
case, is for the report year ending
June 30. Practically every road made
a gain.

Will be Asked to Assist in
the Matter.
Chief Executive Of the City Has
Established Record Ia 0atter
Of Collecting Fines.

Mayor Scherff is planning to make
| a determined effort to have the city
ordinances codifed and also to have
number of new ordinances enacted
to replacemany of the old ones that
are practically useless in their pres
ent form
The mayor, is working first, last
and all of the time for the city of
Marion. Every month he turns in an
amount in fines much larger than his
salary, thing unheard of before.
Since Mr. Scherff Assumed the mayor
ality reins, each month there are a
larger number of state fines which
money Is placed to the credit of the
county. If the city ordinances would
"hold water these cases could be
taken under the city ordinances and
the fines would be turned into the
city treasury whereas they now go
into the county treasury.
II is probable that the mayor will
personally attend one of the council
meetings and have a talk with the
councilmen concerning the great nee
essity for codiAcation of the city or
|dinances. number OF the council
men have expressed themselves in
favor of the mayors plan and 1t Is
very probable that council will take
the action desired by the mayor ana
order the codifcation.

Forty two gypsies, 81 horses, 8
wagons and forty-two sets OF har-
ness were loaded on freight ears
at the Erie depot this morning.
A band of gypsies that has been
camping in this vicinity for the
past several DAYS determined to
leave this country and HE for a
warmer climate. -Four. large box
cars were necessary to carry their
stock and very unusual spectacle
was presented while the cars were
being loaded.
There were twenty children in
the families and while the ears
were being loaded. the little ones
nearly nude, were crawling over
the platforms like bees. The tribe
seemed to be of Mexican descent
and spoke mostly in Spanish Ian
guage. It was representation of

has been seen in this citv for
many days. The tribe was bound
fer Memphis, Tennessee.

THE WHITLEY SIDE OF
THE SHANGHAI STORY
LIN. III I'm N>
BY william t. Ellis.

BY William t. Ellis.
The greatest moral sensation at pres
ent agitating the Far East is not being
created by missionary, but by an Off
Ger of the United States government,
Judge l.. r. Wiley, of the new circuit
court for China. With the majority of
foreigners resident in port cities Judge
Wiley is today probably more unpopu-
lar even than are the missionaries, and
for largely the same reason. What
the missionaries have been trying for
generations to accomplish in the way
of cleaning up the American reputation
out there and improving moral condi-
tions Judge Wiley has wrought al
most overnight.
The shame of Shanghai is interna-
tional; in every part of the civilized
world Shanghai is known as "wide
open" city. AS one resident expressed
it, "There is no public sentiment
here" Shanghai about fulfls the de-
sire of Kipling's soldier:
Ship me somewhere east of Suez,
Where the best is like the worst,
Where there ain It no Ten Command
ments,
And man can raise thirst.
But here comes the rub; the Ameri-
cans have had almost monopoly of the
business end of the vice of Shanghai.
The gamblers, panderers, divekeepers
and loose women were mostly registered
at the American consulate. British
consuls in the East have had the right,
which they have generally exercised,
to deport shady characters of their own
nationality; American consuls have not.
For fifty years, then, the abandoned
women OF this chief port of the Orient
have been claiming the protection of
the Stars and Stripes. The result is
that nowhere in decent circles in the
East is the term american lady" ever
employed, for it has only one signifi-
canoe. An American father dare not
speak of his daughter as an "American
girl" When first came to this city
it needed few pointed and illumina
ting words from friend to explain to
me the large proportion of richly clad
and artifcially bedizened women, mani
testify my compatriots, who rolled along
Bubbling Well Road in sumptuous equi
pages.
OPEN AND SHAMELESS.
So open and shameless has been this
corruption of Shanghai society, rami-
flying into the most extraordinary and
unexpected places, that gradually bra
zen vice has crowded virtue to the rear, !
and, as a most eminent resident assures
me, the demi-monde of Shanghai has
held the center of the social stage.
have it on credible authority that lead
ing business men, married men with |
elegant homes in Shanghai, have been
in the habit of dropping in of after
moons to take tea with the American
girls" A short time ago prominent
British nobleman found after spending
an evening in ''the American colony"
that his watch had disappeared. Now,
this particular watch bore autographs
evidence that it was personal gift
from King Edward, in recognition of
high public services, so every effort was
put forth to recover it-without pub
licity, of course-but in vain. There is
no absolute evidence that it was taken
to the States by one of the score of
" American girls" who left on a single
steamer a few days after but nobody
would be surprised should it turn up in
San Francisco.

Reno in Great Danger From the
Raging WaterS-Southern
+. Pacific Trains Held.

Reno. New, March 1S.-The Truckee
river has reached the highest mark in
its history. Since Saturday morning
there have been heavy rains i'm the
mountains, and bridges all along the
line OF the river have gone out. West
honnd trains have been held at this
place. and, according to information
from the railroad, il may be seVera
days before any train will be able to
get through. Numerous washouts have
occurred in the mountains.
Reno is in danger Of a flood. The wa
ter is now nearly at the top of the main
bridge across the river. and all ba se-
ments along ;he river front are under
five feet of water. One man is reported
to have been drowned. Two others,
who have their home on an island in
the river in the center of town, are in
grave danger, as the water has over
flowed the island and there is no means
by which the men can be taken off
The dam at FrolistOn, Cal, has been
blown VI. and all the power plants of
the Truckee River Electric company
ard the Reno Power & Light company
are under water. If the water rises
above the main bridge in this city
there will be a general flood. which
will put most of the business section
of the city under water. The situation
is extremely grave, and the only hope
of relief is that the heavy rains in the
mountains viii cease before the ex-
IRENE danger point has been reached.

NOT ENTITLED TO MORE PAY
Supreme Court Settles Case of a
Lieutenant Who Commanded
a Company.

Washington. March 1S.-Some of the
questions pertaining to the subject of ex-
ira pay for officers of the army during
war were considered by the supreme court
of the United States today in disposing OF
the case of the United States VS.. Don G.
Mitchell, which was decided in favor of
the United States in an opinion handed
down by Chief Justice Fuller. The par
tiCular point involved was that relating TO
extra pay for duty in higher rank in time
of war but actually in the presence of
the enemy. Mitchell entered the army
during tie war with Spain as second lieu
tenant of troop T. of the First Ohio vol
unteer cavalry, and while stationed at
Huntsville, Ala, in August. 1925 was deS-
ignated by ar order from Captain Rogers
Tegimental quarteTmaster of the First
Ohio. to take command of the troop. He
continued to perform the duties of that
command until the following October. He
then made claim to the pay of a captain
under the act of April, 1898. providing
that in time of war every officer serv-
ing with troops operating against the en-
envy. who shall exercise under assignment
in orders. issued by competent authority
a command above that pertaining TO his
grade, shall be entitled to receive the nav
and allowances of the grade appointed to
the command so exercised" and also for
pay for the extra month allowed at the
rate paid a captain.
The court of claims decided in MitcheTs
favor, holding that he was entitled to a
captains rate. but Chief Justice Fuller $
opinion reversed that ruling and held that
he should receive only the pay of a sec
Ond lieutenant.
