with the operation Of trains.
AT the lecturers desk is mini
allure block system, by means Of
which the pupils" can be graphical
ly shown the operation Of this
wonderful system in minutest
detail.
Behind are charts illustrating
change of time table, and black
boards showing tabulated systems
with rules governing changes in
all kinds of trains, and orders for
trains by telegraph.
The instruction carries with it
its board Of examiners TO instruct
employees at every division as to
the standard runs for operating
trains.
Between stations where there are
yard crews the car runs as an
extra stopping at each station to
examine and instruct railroad
telegraph operators.
AS the lectures are open to all,
it provides brakemen with instruc-
tons for conductors, and fremen
with instructions for engineers, far
in advance of their regular exami-
nations for promotion.
The car is now on the Coast
Division and has since last October
covered the entire system. 1t will
be four more weeks on the trip,
completing it about August 31st,
the last three weeks being spent in
San Francisco. The car is run as
an extra, stopping at each station
to examine and instruct railroad
telegraph operators and at yard
terminals the school sessions are
held in the forenoon and afternoon.
This work is entirely in addition
to the ordinary examination given
employees before they enter the
service, while the pupils chief in
terest is in the fact that it make;
the men more competent through
advanced knowledge. Yet it has
a great interest for the men ais.
in that it enables those DESTROYS 0
increasing their knowledge anC
lettering themselves to gain capa
city and therefore stand bette
chance to gain in position.

Southern Pacific instruction Car.

The Southern Pacific is operating
an instruction car over the entire
route of its Pacific System, being
in charge of corps of expert lee
turers, for the purpose of explain
ing to employees more thoroughly
the theory and practice Of railroad
ing, particularly in its relation to
accidents.
The Hartman Lines have spent
several million dollars for i'm
proved block signal safety systems
in the last few years, and indeed
the Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific have more mileage pro-
tected by the latest improved block
systems than any other three large
railway systems of the country COM
bined. With these devices comes
the necessity for increased educa-
ton of the men, and the Company
through travelling school is en-
deavoring to help them gain the
necessary instruction.
The car is in charge of W.
Nichols, who is lecturer for the
department of instruction for dis
patchers. With him are associated
w. H. Pitts of Oakland and J. S.
Moore of Fresno, who instruct the
engineers.
The instruction is organized as
carefully as a college course. The
car has a completely equipped
school room, in which the lecturers
hold forth to yard men and all
employees who come in contact

IN SHERMAN LAW
Great Gathering in National Cap.
ital Discusses important
Legislation.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-A confer
ence of far-reaehing Importance to labor
began here today, with III national and
International trade unions represented.
The big labor gathering is the result of
a call issue by President Gompers to

Injunction decisions of the Supreme
Court of the United States affecting
labor organizations, with particular ref
erence to the Danbury hatters' case, IN
which that court substantially held that

cred trusts. as much as organizations
of capital.
The object of the conference is to
consider proposed amendments to the
Sherman antitrust act. which are be-
ing drafted to. prevent any injustice be-
ing done through the operation of law
to laboring men, particularly through
injunction. 1t is decided to SO frame
the proposed changes in the Sherman
law as to meet the requirements of the
Supreme Courts decisions.
President Gompers today stated that
an effort would be made to formulate
plans to offset the rulings of the various
courts regarding injunctions boy

PRIESTS SLAYER
PREDICTED ACT
WHEN IN JERSEY
WOman's Story May Give Clue
to BIO0d-thirsty Band of
Anti-CIericals.

DENVER, Colo. March 1S.-To a
woman of Paterson, N. J., Giuseppe
Ala, who murdered Father Leo Helm
richs. formerly of that city, at the altar
of st. Elizabeth's Catholic Church in
this city, whispered a black prophecy
on the eve of his departure for the
West.
"Within six months you will hear Of
a murder that will shock the world"
said he. When, over the wire came the
news of the assassination in Denver,
the omar stricken with terror, re-
peated the words of Ala.
Father Eusebius, while in Paterson,
whittier he journeyed with the body
OF the dead priest, was informed of
the interview which Ala had with the
woman, and caused inquiries to be
made. He returned to Denver last
night with the news that may put
the police on the track of a blood
thirsty band of anti-clericals.
Father Eusebius learned hat Father
Leo had informed certain priests in
Chicago some time ago that he had re-
ceived threatening letters. The writer's
declared they would kill him because
of his denunciation of anarchy. Search
Is now being made among the effects
of Father Leo for these letters.
A motion for a new trial for Ala,
the condemned murderer, has been filed
by his attorney, Robert II. Widdi-
bombe. 1t is alleged that Ala was in
sane when he killed the priest and
should have been so declared by the
Jury.
