Front in Seaboard Directory.

Front In SeaDoard directory.
BALTIMORE, October 9.-Baltimore
has again assumed a prominent place
in the management of the Seaboard Air
Line railway through the action of the
board of directors of that corpora
ton yesterday in New York, when J..
William Middendorf of Middendorf, Will
liams & Co.. bankers. and John B. Ram
say. president of the National Mechanics
Bank, were elected to the directorate
More significant than this, however. was
the election of Mr.. John Shelton Williams
Of Richmond as director. Mr.. Williams
was the founder of the road and former
president until after protracted differ
ences with the Ryan interests he re-
signed.
Three other directors In addition to
these were elected, namely, Hennen Jen-
nings of Washington: Franklin O. Brown
Of New York. formerly vice president of
the Plant system of railroad, first vice
president Of the Georgia and Florida and
a member of the banking firm of Red
mon 4 Co. and L. F. Loree. president of
the Delaware and Hudson. and formerly
president of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road. Three were elected to fill the va
cancies made by the designations of
Thomas F. Ryan Of New York; James
H. Dooley of Richmond, and w. A. Gar
rett of Baltimore. Just what relation
Ryan and his friend will have to the com
pany now Is dark and puzzling mys-
terry. None of the directors could be in
dueed to give any explanation of the sit
Uation, but apparently the Ryan interests
have left the field to their former rivals.
The remaining three of the six new ones
were provided for in an increase In the
board from sixteen to nineteen.

BUILDING WITH CONCRETE.
illustrated Lecture Delivered at the
Y. M. G. A. Building.

In a lecture on art in Concrete Con-
struction' delivered at the Y. NJ. c. A.
building last evening by E. p. Cowell Of
the Franklin Institute, Philadelphia the
speaker declared that the city of Wash
ington is peculiarly adapted to lead the
country in the matter of concrete build
ings. He said that all the necessary ma
terials are obtainable here at moderate
cost and climatic conditions are such that
work may be executed very nearly all the
year round. Concrete buildings. he said.
are scientific, weatherproof. fireproof,
comfortable and INTELLECTUALLY beautiful,
and it is fitting that the National Capital
should take the lead in erecting the best
of modern buildings.
For the hall OF records which has
been proposed said the lecturer. "this
seems to be the ideal construction. II

into service again. A small rowboat
built of concrete on the Seine In 49,. was
also described by him.
Speaking OF the practical side of con-
crete buildings, he said:
The vital feature in concrete Is that 1t
10 the most highly resistive of fire. the
best obtainable material in this regard.
Our losses in the United States from fire
are terrible as compared with those OF
Germany and France, being six times as
great per capita. Something must be
done, and the answer is concrete
Standardization will help architects
and contractors who seem to lag In inter-
est on account of lack OF knowledge of
methods of calculating stresses. Soon
books full of data on Orders, floor slabs.
etc, will be available. These books will
be similar to those published by the steel
makers and will be boon to the con-
crete industry.
The lecture was illustrated with about
one hundred stereopticon pictures.

Two Freight Trains.

The amount of business being
done on this branch of the South
ern Pacific is such that it could
not be carried by one train and
Sunday last second train was put
on the branch, one train leaving
New Iberia daily, the other leav-
ing Port Barre. The cane plan
ters especially were complaining
of the service which caused them
a great deal of delay and inconvi-
nience. Business was delayed all
over the road and the train crew
was overworked. We presume
the freight crew did all they could
to relieve the situation. but the
handling of such an enormous
amount of freight, amount to more
than one hundred carloads per day
on forty mile road is more than
one train could do, considering
the amount of switching that had
to be done on account of the cane
cars. The second train will re-
lieve the situation and move the
freight more promptly.

Oppressive To The Poor.

the Town Council for electric light.
to take effect January LIST 1910,
which is arbitrary, unjust and OPP
pressive to the poor of this town
who are only using small num-
Der of lamps.
The present town administration
does not seem 10 consider or rea-
lie that all the residents of this
town are not wealthy and able to
stand the burden tried TO be i'm.
posed upon them and mildly sub
nit to such unjust treatment.
An ilIgal tax of three mills was
levied upon them contrary to law
and tried 10 be collected upon our
people, many were able to pay thus
unjust and illegal tax, but many
are not able to pay this tax which
would have been collected had not
this matter been taken up by some
of the friends of our poor people
and to protect their own right at
any cost. The poor would have
been compelled to pay this tax,
not having the means to stand
law suit if necessary. This is ty-
ranny!
Now comes the unjust rating of
the electric light, the rate of the
poor people. those who are using
one. two, three or four lamps.
Those using one or two lamps
their rate is Increased from 40 to
70 cents, those using three lamps
with meter not less than so cents;
$50 being munimin meter rate.
Why this dissemination against
those who can use one or two
lamps aud unable to buy a meter.
Are they not entitled to the same
justice, consideration aud rate as
their more fortunate nsighbors :?
This is oppression.
Compare the rates, the poor us
ing two lights paying IS cents per
light, those ursiDg meters pay
about 20 cents per lamp in sum-
mer and about % cents per lamp
in winter, the poor cannot use the
meter pays Is cents per lamp all
the year, is this justice? Consi-
der that this plant belongs to the
town, paid for by all tax payers
equally according to assessment,
why cannot the price be adjusted
10 the same manner aud not OPP
press the poor users of one, two or
three lamps?
1t can he done, in the first place
the flat rate should not have been
raised. The meter could have been
adopted for everybody, but a mu-
nimum rate graded according to
the number of lamps used in or
der to help and give justice to the
poor instead of expressing them.
The minimum meter rate for two
lamp should have been 80 cents,
for three lamps 81 20 for four
lamps $3.50 aud so on-this would
have permitted all those using
their lamps now to continue the
electric service and it would have
stopped all abuses that forced the
adoption of the meter system.
This would lave been an intelli.
gent and reasonable tariff that
would protect the poor people and
at the same time protect the plant
from abuses.
Will the poor people remember
this illegal school tax and the cleo
trio light rates at the next cleo
ton? If they do they can by their
