MAINTAINING A STANDARD.

An extensive traveller returning from trip

1t is this distinctive higher grade that makes the
Pennsylvania the Standard Railroad of America and that

To maintain this standard the first railroad in the

track tank establish block signal system inaugurate

To maintain this high standard it has stonebalasted it's
roadbed from New York Chicago; has built separate
distinct freight line from New York Pittsburgh; has
tunneled the Hudson river and building the handomest

That it is maintaining its high standard in roadbed in

MOVEMENTS OF TROOPS.
Regulars Coming Home From
Philippines; Others Going There.

A general program for the movement of
United States troops during the year 1910
has been prepared at the War Depart
ment and approved by President Taft. It
involves the return home OF regiments in
the Philippines whose terms will have
expired and their replacement by troops
now at home stations. For military
reasons the details OF the movement will
not be made public for several weeks yet.
A new policy as to the assignment Of
stations is to be entered on this year. It
is proposed to send regiments that were
scattered through several posts on their
last tour in the Philippines to some regi-
mental post, In order to bring the regi-
ments together again for a period. The
same method will be followed to some ex-
tent on the return of regiments from sthe
islands to the United States.
The infantry regiments that are likely to
go to. the Philippines in 1910 are the 6th
9th and 18th. The infantry regiments to
return from the islands are the 4th. 14th
and ed. The I'd Cavalry is scheduled to
go to the islands in January. and may
possibly go on the transport to sail De-
cember 5. but no other cavalry regiments
are to go in 1910. AS some Infantry regi-
ment il to be selected to 60 to Alaska. 1t
is not safe to say positively that the 9Th,
9th and. 10Th will go to the Philippines.
as one OF these regiments may 60 to
Alaska.

Fuel or Lumber, which,

1t is up to the interstate commerce
commission to decide what is sawdust
If 1t is fuel the railroads will carry IL
at a certain rate. but if it is lumber they
will charge differently. The question
comes before the commission on COM
plant of the Plummer Company of Mil
waukee. and the point at issue is a
charge made by the Great Northern rail-
way for the transportation of a carload
OF sawdust from Milwaukee to Hettin-
ger, N. d.
The railroad holds that sawdust is lum-
Der. and consequently charged lumber
rates for the carriage of the product.
The complainant AYERS that sawdust is
fuel and therefore entitled to a lower
rate. If the commission decide that saw
dust is fuel instead of lumber" the
complainant asks that it be awarded
reparation in the sum of $3.50.

BANKS IN GOOD SHAPE.
Treasury officials Regard Fact as
Best Evidence of Prosperity.

The best evidence of prosperous con-
ditions and restored confidence, accord

of the currency is the lack of bank
failures throughout the country.
1t is pointed out today that there has
not been a single failure of a national
bank for two months. when one failed
due to ENLIGHTENMENT by officials. 1t was
a small bank UP in Michigan.
Reports reaching the controller of the
currency from bank examiners point to
the generally satisfactory condition of
the national banks in all parts OF the
country. Where the usual honesty and
business sense is shown the banks are
doing well and are unhampered by fear
of hard times. A year and a half ago
the same banks were using the utmost
caution to guard against losses and lack
of confidence.
1.-The national banks were never in bet
ter condition." said Deputy Controller
Kane today. Except in a few cases OF
dishonesty there have been no failures
of banks in a good many months. Dis
honesty will ruin any bank, no matter
now prosperous times are"
