Needs of American Railways.

It is now generally recognized and conceded that railways should be sub jected to regulation and control by the state and national government. So writes Samuel D. Dunn in the Techni- cal World Magazine for March.
 It is agreed that main object of public regulation should be to abolish unfair discrimination in rates between travelrs, shippers and localities. When the regulating authorities have sought to attain other objects they seldom have selected them wisely, and the re- suits of their efforts generally have not been satisfactory or beneficial. This has been due to deficient knowl- edge or misunderstanding on the part both of public authorities and of off cials of railways concerning the condi- tions under which rail transportation is and ought to be carried on.
 The discussion of railway problems during recent months has afforded some choice specimens of ignorance and misreprepresentatio We have heard spokesmen of the railways, for example, contrasting the average charge of 7.66 mills per ton per mile in the United States in 1905 with the average charge of about 2 cents per ton per mile in the United Kingdom as evidence of the reasonableness of freight rates in this country, without
 ntioning such very pertinent facts a. that the average charge in United Kingdom is made up of the rates not only on what we call freight but also on the kind of business that is handled in this country by the express companies at very high charges that the mean haul there is 2S miles, while here it is 13O miles, and that there the roads not only transport goods from station to station, but also collect them at and deliver them from the stations in their own wagons. Our passenger fares have been compared with those of France, where the first -classrate is 7-10 cents and the second-class rate is 2R cents-without stress being laid on the fact that, according to Prof. Emory L. Johnson, about 90 per cent of the travel in France is at the third class fare of 6-10 cents and that there is enough more travel on reduced-rate tickets to bring down the average charge per passenger per mile to 2-10 cents. Many regulating authorities have betrayed ignorance of conditions and reckless disregard of conse- quences. Many representatives of rail ways have shown want of intelligence and judgment in choosing the argu- ments and methods with which to op- pose unwise and unjust policies of reg ulation. The results have been harm full to roads and public.
 With tIiS introduction MT. Duu, proceeds to valuable discussion of the rule of the railways. putting many things in light ne@v to most Ameri- can readers. The article Is well worth reading and thinking about.

Utility in Firing.

It can be fired from almost any kind of a conveyance or from the ground without constructing a platform Or, it can be placed on railway trains ana be fred as 1t is moved. So light IS the gun, indeed, that a motor car of 50 or 60 horsepower can take 20 of the guns in tow and be rushed to any dan ger point in Il skirmish line.
 Another great advantage of the new invention Is that the carriages are strong enough to hold two of the gun combinations. Thus 1t is possible to fire Hp and down. to east or west. or from both sides of a. moving railway train at the same time.
 The two tiers of barrels, instead of the compact nest, also offers many ad- vantages One tier or both can be fired at once, or can be held in reserve for emergencies. The same fact applies to the loading. With practically two sets of barrels in one it is next to impossi- ble for the gun to be entirely disabled,
 Further precautions iN the same di- rection are found in the effort to make each tier of barrels as simple as pos sible. The automatic device for load ing and discharging the shells is ar ranged in such a manner that every round of ammunition can at all times be seen In it's respective barrel, and after every discharge 1t is possible to see through the barrels from muzzle to breach.

 Thomas W, Ryan eonfesses with tears in his voice to friends that he is deeply hurt by the newspaper attasks upon him and his methods. "To read the papers the people must get the idea that l am q common thief" he said A caller with fine discrimination in the use of words demurred from MT. Ryans remark. whereupon the great financer repeated it and asked with some spirit if he hadn't stated the case mildly. The caller ae- quieseed in this later remark and added that he thought the people might get the impression from the press attacks that the great manipulator was an "uncom- mon thief" As the visitor made his es- cape from the office he heard Mr. Ryan make a remark about some people being very "loose-mouthed"

A Study of Hitchcock.

From Washington Letter to the Utica (N.
 Y.) Press.
 Frank H. Hitchcock, who is to under take the work of swinging the southern delegates to Taft, is a typical instance of one class of successful man in the executive civil service He was clerk in the department of agriculture few years ago, and one day was told that his services were not needed longer. It meant hunt new job, and he was telling fellow clerk that he did not know where to look.
 Haven't you any influential friends? ?" asked the other clerk.
 "I don't know a man in high position except MT. Cortelyou,' said Hitchcock.
 AS result of the talk Cortelyou was appealed to. and the President sent word that his secretary's friend must not be disturbed. From that time he was known as "Cortelyou's man." and as such four Ished He was promoted in the depart ment of agriculture until he became a division chief MT. Cortelyou made him chief clerk of the new department of conl- merce and labor in 1908, and later took him to New York as his rSht-hand man in the campaign of 1904. He was made first assistant postmaster general when Cortelyou became postmaster general aiiu this is the position he resigns to become :. Taft manager in the south.
 : MT. Hitchcock is fend for work. He works from 12 to IS hours day. and ac- complishes about much in that time as an average man of his position would in eight hours. He makes work, works around in a circle. fairly drives sten- ographers into insomnia, and accomp- fishes little worth while. Yet his repu- tation as a worker is sending him south fo. Taft and ma yet land him in the cabinet He would be a good cabinet officer, too in the way that Cortelyou is familiar with every phase of govern- ment administration, a good hustler, but a poor counselor
 MT Hitchcock is a Harvard man from the academic course; six feet two in height, well proportioned, with line face and firm jaw. He has a warm handshake, a charming smile and con iding look in his soft blue eyes that makes you want to buy his brick without even opening the satche.

Iondon Stock Market.

London, February 22.--The foreign bourses especially were unsettled by the political and trade outlets, and offered their specialties rather freely until the end of the week, when some covering operations made the market look steadi- er although prices today were still lower than last Saturday. This is especially true of Japanese bonds, the lower price in British being largely due to unfavora- ble returns
 American securities displayed no fresh feature during the week.
 Various new bond issues, the message of President Roosevelt, and government action regarding the railroads have been the chief bearish points of notice Flue- tuations which have been narrow and somewhat irregular, leave values from a point higher to a point lower on the week. The money market is feeling the effects of the cash returning from the country and with the bank reserve in- creasingly strong discount rates weak ened considerably They were helped by recovery in American and French ex- change.

The list is, he points out, almost entirely list of losers" in iife's material race,
 But of the winners he finds that al- most two thirds died leaving on ! the average only G200 C$1,000) out of the gigantic total of nearly e300,OOO,oOO.

Avoidance of Drawbacks.

With the Gatling gun the ten barrels are loaded with cartridges from one side, the latter being discharged from the other. As army men point out. one of the first principles of such a rapid fire weapon is to supply rigid back, or base, to the barrels, to offer resist ance for the exploding cartridge and the accompanying recoil. The new En- glish gun has a ballistic similar to that found in the rifles used in the British army. The whole charge goes to the propulsion of the bullet The recoil is spread over the breach mechanism and Is not felt.
 Closely related to this fact is the question of cooling agents. The Maxim machine gun abroad and the Colt auto matic gun In this country have the bar rels covered with a jacket filled with water the idea being to keep the steel cool during continued rapid firing.
 Critics of this device find in 1t sev- eral rawbacks. The jacket implies the necessity of having water always within reach on an open field. A buck etful of water poured into the jacket soon boils and is converted into steam. After being fired for short time the heat is concentrated in the gun barrels, the tendency being to soften them. When cold cartridge is introduced into the heated breech. the critics say, the combination destroys the fine riff ling of the barrels. Thus the gun loses it's ballistic energy-rapge and pene- tration.
