Gossip Of Railwaymel

Ticket" said Conductor Muller to a
lady who boarded the train at Palo
Alto.
Certainly" she replied, as she
opened a large purse and took out a
pasteboard.
Conductor Muller punched the ticket
mechanically; then he gave a start
while shiver passed over his stalwart
frame and a blush mantled his deli
cate features.
He stood stock still and gave an
apprehensive cough. but the lady was
so absorbed with the scenery that she
did not notice his presence nor his
discontinue.
He finally leaned over and whispered
in her ear:
Madame, this is good only for five
cents. and when you return an empty
beer bottle"
.Is that So. said the lady coolly,
as she took the ticket froom the con-
ductor. This Just happens through
my husband running with railroadmen.
I'll tell him that he must drop the
society of Gill and his boon companion.

c. w. Cook. assistant general agent
of the Santa Fe in Chicago, is in San
Francisco for fortnight, and has
charge of the issuing of all the Santa
Fe systems tariffs. He Is establishing
now In the San Francisco office a new
system of fling tariffs This system
has been patented by him and is being
used extensively by eastern lines. In
speaking of his work, Cook said yester-
day:
The individual tariff has been sim
plifed. as a rule. but the situation, on
account of the lack of system and
uniformity, is more confusing than
ever before. There is absolutely no
uniformity nor system governing the
issue of freight tariffs. and just before
l left Chicago, October II, the vice
presidents in charge of traffic of the
various lines, who are becoming in
terested In the question, were dis
cussing the adyisability of taking up
the matter.
From what could learn, there was
a possibility of meeting being held
to consider the question OF adopting
uniform and simple system OF tariff
issue. This is to be placed in the hands
of a committee OF experienced men.
who will be expected to work out
system devoid of the present per-
plexities. This committee will work
in harmony with the interstate COM
merce commission. One good will re-
suit from this. The committee in
charge will endeavor to substitute a
less eldpOTdtt syStSil tudl W. III MAKE
our printing bills smaller, for since
the passage of the Hepburn act our
expenses for printing tariffs have more
than doubled"
Advices have been received from r.
H. Countess, agent of the freight trans
continental bureau. that the new lum-
Der adjutment is now in the hands OF
the interstate commerce commission,
and it is confidently expected that per-
mission will be obtained from the
commission to publish the rates In less
than statutory time. This will be well
come news to the lumber interests In
California. for the reason that the
basis is now in force from the north
Pacific coast. California dealers are
unable to meet northern line quota
tions until the new rates have been
published.
