FREIGHT BUSINESS OF
PENNSY ON INCREASE

PITTSBuRG, Sept. 2s.-The reports
OF a weeks business show that the
freight business of the Pennsylvania
Railroad on its lines east Of Pittsburg
and Erie, Pa, is increasing greatly. 1t
is shown that during the week 1.017,-
1888 tons of freight were shipped, this
being an increase of more than 200. 900
tons over the previous week, and this
week bids fair to beat even that figure
In spite of the great drouth, which is
stopping the coal and coke industry.
Within the last ten days 1000 more
freight cars were placed in commission
on the lines west of Pittsburg.

FORAKER STRIKES
BACK At TAFT
AND ROOSEVELT
Declares That Presidents Ac.
tons Show That He Has a
Guilty Conscience.
SAYS TAFT CONSORTED
WITH OIL TRUST MEN
Makes Appeal to Negro Voters
to Vote Against Republic
can Nominee.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 26.--In a 5000
word statement United States Senator
Foraker undertakes 10 explain and de-
fond the paid services he performed for
the Standard Oil Company, and his eff
forts to hamper the Roosevelt policies
for the control of lawIess corporations.
He maintains that he acted as at
tempted to influence legislation for the
trust while in the Senate. and utters a
general defense of the corporations as
maligned and prosecuted institutions.
The chief feature Of the statement,
however. is a savage attack upon
Senator Foraker. forced to withdraw
from the national and State Republi-
can campaigns because of the expos
ure of his trust relations, outlaws him
self entirely from the party. and de-
nounces the candidacy of Taft.
He is particularly bitter over "the
Brownsville affair."" the dismissal OF
negro troops accused of rioting, and
makes an open appeal to the negro
NOLcTS VI Lie COultTy " NOtc oSuihSt
the Republican nominee.
Foraker takes up the Hearst charges,
including the correspondence between
him (Foraker) and John D.. Archbold,
the oil trusts political i%ntriguer. He
acknowledges being employed by the
corporation, but denies that IL has any
thing to do with Legislation. He asserts
that Hearst has other letters. which. If
made public. would show his connec-
tion with Standard OIL to have been
harmless.
He charges that Mr.. Taft consorted
with Oil trust officials and asserts that
the Presidents action indicates a guilty
con science.

DEATH OF YELLOW JOURNALS

William LANCE, the we'll known

this prophecy:
Thirty years from now white
paper will command such a price
that the size of newspapers will be
reduced to a minimum, and cot
ton fibre will be used exclusively
in it's manufacture. The novel
will disappear, as we'll as the yell

properties in a greater degree

properties in a greater degree
than do some of the hickories.
Peculiar interest is given to the
situation by the fact that hickory
is disticntively an American genus.
1t occurs only in the Eastern part
Of the United States, and large
quantities of hickory handles,
spokes, wheels, and other parts of
vehicles, and farm implements are
exported each year to all parts of
the world.
The requirements of the trade
are very exacting. Hickory tim
Der to be serviceable must be
heavy, clear and straight grained.
To this very essential qualification,
custom and tradition have added
an unnecessary burden in the
shape of grading rules which dis
eliminate against red hickory, and
also against iron streaks, small
bird pecks, and hard knots in the
wood, which may not really affect
the strength at all.
Practical users of this timber
have realized for years that a re-
vision of the grading rules was not
only advisable put necessary, and
now, the National Hickory Asso-
citation of Chicago has requested
the United States Forest Service to
cooperate with it in the revision Of
the grading rules for vehicle and
agricultural implement stock.
This Association is composed larg-
ly of hickory and oak users, and
its members represent the wagon,
carriage, spoke, handle, hard
wood dimension and agricultural
implement manufacturers, to-
gether with the accessory trades.
The grading rules for the classes
of material used by the manufac-
turers of this Association are to-
day largely what they We're twen-
ty-five years ago. The dissatis-
faction constantly arising from the
inadequacy of the present rules
calls for a complete revision to
make them conform with present
day conditions.
|. During the past two years the
Forest Service has been conduct
ing a study Of the vehicle industry
supplemented by a large number
of tests to determine the relative
effect of various defects upon the
strength Of vehicle stock, and tt
, ascertain the relative strength o.
white and red hickory. The re-
suits of these studies have beer
made the subject of a Forest Ser
vice publication which will be IS
sued shortly.
