Commissioner Lane Criticises
Railroad Managers.
Charges Them With Present
Threatened Car Shortage.

Regulations of Different States
Too Conflicting.

way Circles.
UNIFORM DEMURRAGE

Washington, D. c., Oct 20.-Adop-
ton of car service and demurrage
laws that will be uniform in all states
OF the union is the recommendation
carried in the report of the commit
tee on car distributors and car short
age, presented by Franklin K. Lane,
a member of the interstate commerce
commission, at meeting OF the state
railroad commissioners held here.
Commissioner Lane has made a study
Of this question extending over
period of several years. which included
the time of the serious car shortage
in all sections of the country in the
winter of 19O6-07, and is. therefore,
probably the man best qualified to
speak on this subject from an unpre-
JUDGED point of view.
State authorities have no jurisdic-
ton over the demurrage or free time
upon Interstate shipments" Mr.. Lane
says. They have full Jurisdiction,
time upon purely interstate shipments.
This division of jurisdiction over what
is practically one mass of equipment
will be disadvantageous to both car
riers and shippers unless the rules for
interstate demurrage and intrastate
free time are made harmonious, and
are framed with a view not to securing
free storage time for shippers, but to
securing the largest possible use of
railroad equipment as a means of
transportation.
at is evident that the public inter-
est requires that car service rules
throughout the North American con-
tinent should be harmonious, and I'M
der like conditions absolutely uniform.
The entire body of railroad equipment
is part of practically one system of
transportation. Especially is this
true of freight cars.
For years an agitation has been
carried on to secure the pooling of
freight cars by American railways.
During the agitation it developed that
the cars actually are pooled in prac-
tice, cars moving from road to road
freely and railways using cars upon
their rails regardless Of their owner
ship.
LAS the body of freight car equip
ment is practically a unit the system
of rules governing its use should be
free from conflict. 1t is evident that
local regulation of this subject must
have in mind the general good, or To-
cal regulation will find itself compelled
to yield to national regulation. Good
faith and intelligence on the part of
local regulative bodies will secure uni
formity of car service rules without
any shifting of jurisdiction"
Commissioner Lane then points out
the necessity of a concerted movement
for uniformity of car service and de-
fact that twenty-five states enacted
car service laws following the car
shortage of 1907-07. Twenty states
provided for reciprocal demurrage,
but their laws differed widely, and in
one state, Texas, the law was so radi-
cal that it has since been declared I'M
constitutional

BEvERIDGE IN KANSAS CITY.
He Says There Is No Longer a Demo-
cratic Party.

Kansas City. Oct. 20.-United States
Senator Albert J. Beveridge, of In
diana, last night addressed large
meeting in Convention hall. Senator
Beveridge took up the issues of the
campaign severely arraigning Mr..
Bryan and the Democratic party. As
to the latter Senator Beveridge said:
There is no Democratic party any
more. There is simply the government
and it's opposition"
All day today Senator Beverage ad-
dressed large crowds en- route from
Oklahoma. Seventeen speeches were
delivered, the principal one being Cof-
feyville, where the senator addressed
large crowd in the opera house. The
stops today included Coffeyville. Pitts

MORE CARS NEEDED.
Colorado Hasn't Enough to Move Her
Freight.

Denver, Colo, Oct. 20.-All freight
cars in Colorado are in use, virtually
for the first time since the financial
depression of a year ago. In fact
there is slight shortage in some
classes of freight cars. The railway
managers take this as an indication
that Colorado has not fully recovered
from the financial disturbance, but
that it is again forging rapidly ahead.
Crops in most parts of the state
were normal. and some districts
showed an increase over a year ago.
While the ore shipments are not as
heavy as usual. the deficiency has
been more than made up in other
kinds of freight.
The sugar beet crop is moving; coal
is beginning to move in quantities, and
all kinds of freight shipments are
heavy. The earnings of the Denver
& Rio Grande railway are climbing
back to what they were prior to the
financial scare; the earnings of the
Colorado Midland are improving, and
the incomes of the Colorado & South
ern and Moffat roads are larger than
a year ago.
The Rock Island and other COM
panies have a large number of freight
cars in Colorado, and look forward to
a still further increase in Colorado
business.
According to the latest report of the
Denver & Rio Grande it has 15,461
freight cars, and the Colorado &
Southern has 9,166 freight cars. Every
car is now in service, and the COM
panies could use more If they had
them.

IMPROVED BLOCK SIGNALS.
Northern Pacific superintendent Makes
Practical Invention.

Tacoma, Oct. 20-Today all the
Northern Pacific trains operating be-
tween Trout Creek, Mont, and Taco
ma come under the control of the A.
B. c. block system of train dispatch
ing devised by A. Beamer, superintend-
ent of the Idaho division. All western
lines on the road excepting the division
between Portland and Tacoma are now
operated under the new system, which,
it is said, makes collisions practically
Impossible. The adoption of the A B.
C. system will, it is asserted, complete
~ revolutionize the method of train
dispatching.
The system has been adopted after
extensive and thorough tests extend
ing over more than a year. Under 1t
trains are run between block stations,
which are ordinarily about ten miles
apart, on authority of a block card
issued by an operator by the direc-
ton of the train dispatcher at the
headquarters of the series of blocks.
This card gives the train a clearance
only to the next block station. Be
yond that it cannot proceed until given
authority by the issuance of another
block card. All trains are run entire
" independent of each other, the card
system eliminating the necessity OF
comparison of orders between conduc-
tors and engineers of different trains
waiting for orders and uncertainty OF
movements of other trains ahead or fol-
lowing.

FOLLOWING LEAD OF KANsANs.
Railway Employees of Oklahoma Or
ganize for Protection.

Guthrie, Ok, Oct 2O.-All candi-
dates for state offices, irrespective of
party affiliations. have received cir
cular purporting to learn where the
candidate stands on railroad regula-
ton and his attitude toward certain
laws now in effect. The circular is
sent out by the Railroad Employers
Protective association, numbering in
the neighborhood of $4,000 qualified
voters, whose interest, the circular
states, is too important to jeopardize
1--WE favor the adjustment of rates
on fair and just basis, and stand ready
at all times to support legislation
which tends to promote equally the
interests of all through which pros
perity will surely follow" is a state
ment at the close of the document.
An answer is requested from the
candidates not later than October Is,
for after that date the circular says
they will have to protect their in
terests."
The organization of the Employers
Protective association extends to all
railroads in all the state, it is said. but
does not include all the branches of
railroad service. When the organiza-
ton was first started early in the
campaign the objects were announced
as being for the election of candidates
who would grant the relief they asked
for and labor against the reduction of
rates upon the theory that it would
mean a reduction of wages. For this
purpose it was announced at the out
set that the organization would be
non-partisan.

freight with little risk of decay. Two
large plants, one at Roseville and one
at Cotton, will be erected, the first
capable of chilling 20 carloads in four
hours and the latter having a capacity
Of 40 carloads in the same time. To ac-
complish the same result in an ordi-
nary case plant would require four
days.
The companys scientists have dem
onstrated that the sudden chilling of
vegetable matter causes an absolute
suspension of the processes of decay
and the company announces that the
new method practically does away with
the loss of time and consequent loss by
decay in shipments of California fruits
and vegetables to eastern markets.
The Sprague device consists of plant
equipped to force through the loaded
cars under vacuum pressure blasts of
air that have been previously passed
over the ice. The vacuum removes
the warm air, thereby removing the i'm
mediate cause of decay.

SOME PHEASANTS SEEN.
Several Broods Hatched Out in Saline
County.

Salina. Oct. 2O-Of the Hungarian pleas
ants that were turned loose in Saline
county two years ago few of them can
now be found There was pair of them
Matched out a brood on Dry Creek north
west of the city. A covey of small ones
was seen with the pair in the summer.
A part of the covey was seen in August
and looked as though. they were about
half grown. - eET ---r
Two pair of what was supposed to be
the old ones were seen on the river bot
tom three or four miles east of Salina.
One nest was found where the female
was setting and they were Matched out
and later small brood was discovered
1t is thought that some of the birds stay
along the Smoky Hill river at this point
Some of the old birds were also discov-
cred up on the Mulberry about ten miles
distant from Salina but nothing has been
heard of any of the young being Matched
in that region.
The county clerk of Saline county will
have ten pairs sent him by the game war
den for letting out in this county this fall.
1t Is expected to place these in good 10

observations as to the raising Of cot
ton.
Mr.. Parker has lived in the south
a good portion of his life, and says
he believes the Kansas climate, soil,
etc, is of such a nature that cotton
can be made a paying crop here.
He says that Nashville, Tenn,
in the heart of the cotton country.
is forty miles north of this portion of
Kansas in latitude. and that If they
can raise cotton there. he can here.
To test the theory Mr.. Parker has
rented one hundred acres of land two
miles west of Scammon, upon which
he will plant next spring a crop of
cotton as an experiment. He will not
go at the matter in a crude manner,
but will bring from the south some
negroes who are adopts in the Gull
ture of cotton and will give the mat
ter a thorough test. Mr.. Parker says
that if he can only raise bale of
cotton from an acre of ground, 1T will
give him a return of fifty to seventy
five dollars to the acre.

MAJOR sLAvENs CLEARED.
Such Is the Unofficial Report That
Reaches Leayenworth.

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct 20.-An un-
official report known to emanate from
a highly reliable source to the effect
that Major T. H. Slavens command
ant Of the military prison at Fort
Leavenworth was cleared as the re-
suit of his court martial trial at this
post October IA, has been received
here.
Major Slavens was tried on the
charge of having assaulted Major
John Stone, chief surgeon of the
prison, in an alteration over the re-
fusal of the medical officer to obey
certain orders demanding that they be
reduced to writing. Major Slavens on
September %, the day of the alleged
quarrel, ordered Major Stone to his
quarters under arrest, and preferred
charges of INSTRUMENTATION against
him. Major Stone then sent in the
assault charge.
Major Slavens was today released
from arrest and restored to command
of the prison while Major Stone is
still under arrest.
