FA,RsR TO RAILROADS.
Abatement Of Hostility Leaos to Re
sumption Of New Construction.

A striking illustration OF the effects
Of anti.railroad agitation upon rail.
road enterprise and the subsequent
beneficial effect of the lessening OF
the pressure put upon railroads by
legislatures and other governmental
bodies is found in the conduct Of the
Atchlson, Topeka and Santa Fe over
the last two or three years. The
sytem was spending very large
amounts in the development of the
territory which it serves, but at the
height of the agitation against the
railroads suspended practically all OF
this work. This year. even before
the full tide of prosperity had re
turned, the feeling OF hostility against
the railroads in Texa having subsid-
ed the directors Of the road desired
to go ahead with very important new
work in the state.
The incident is regarded in railroad
circles as at striking object lesson.
Here is what President E p. Ripley.
OF the Atchison. had to say on the
matter in his statement TO the roads
shareholders contained in the annual
report made public last week:
In the last report it was indicated
that while public opinion seemed to
be changing, and there was reason to
hope that the harassing OF railroads
had reached its climax. your direc-
tors did not deem il wise to proceed
to further development Of the terri
tory tributary to your lines until the
reaction should become more apper
ent The state most in need OF de-
velopment was Texas. and with but
one exception its laws and the admin
istration thereof have been the most
severe and unjust: but in the last
two years there has been a marked
change in sentiment. evidenced by
the fact that the last session of the
Texas Legislature resisted practically
all efforts to commit the state tc
further radical legislation. Anew

Peru's New Railway Lines.

The long-awaited railroad connect
with the Amazon seems at last 10
be almost in sight. The Peruvian
government has granted a provisional
concession TO a German firm. and sur
veys will soon begin. The Amazon. II
will be remembered, nearly cuts the
South American continent in two.
Navigation is possible clear up 70
Iquitcs, at the eastern foot of the An
dean slope. only about 400 miles from
the Pacific. There has never been
either railroad or wagon road from
there westward. AS a result, Peru
Wan products destined for Iquitos are
generally taken all the way round
Liverpool, reshipped to Para, and
there reshipped again. Peruvian rub
Der is carried down the Amazon and
shipped as Para rubber instead o,
going cut by way of the west coast
The new railroad will bring Iquito:
within ten days of the Pacific coss
instead OF the six months often con.
sumed now in shipping goods from
a Peruvian port TO the Amazon head
waters. In short. this little strip d
railroad, only about 400 miles long
will mean TO Peru and the uppel
Amazon country very much what the
transcontinental line meant to on
own western states. The plan is t.
build the road in from the port o.
Paita and over a pass at an altitude
Of 1890 feet This is extremely low
for the Andes-the Oroya railroad
little farther south in Peru. climbing
Is. 500 feet in order to cross the range

 Hal Chase, the brilliant baseman of the Yankees. has marked manner ism in his throwing. It is peculiar lift of the ball to a point just over and close to the left shoulder. There Is an almost iaa:erceptible hitch or break in the movement of the arm just before the ball Is thrown, then the hand shoots forward just past the ear.
 The great Latoie throws, as he does everything else on the ball field. in an indifferent, careless manner. He Is the personiffcafion of careless, sup pie grace. There is rather a wide sweep of the arm, but with the move ment so well attuned to the require ments Of the occasion that 1t has the ease of everything else Lajoie does.
 Quite different in build is Lajoie's great rival in popular opinion as to who is the greatest ball player in the country Dutch Wagner is less symmetrical than massive. Massive though he is. he Is boundless in activ- ity When 1t comes to throwing, the Dutchman can vary his style. just as ne can for batting. Sometimes he losses the ball-merely floats it over to first base, as if to show his con tempt for the speed of the runner Sometimes. when the time Is short. ais arm describes a swing. swishing arc, and then he cuts loose with great force

 Bill Bradley. the tall and rangy third b&seman of the Cleveland club. ma>es 2 lariat of his arm throws with a swinging motion and has such a reach that he seems to be handing the ball to the first baseman. .
 Joe Tinker is another who might be described as an enthusiastic thrower. He conveys the impression that he would rather throw than eat. Every bit of him is mixed up in the throw ing motion, some way or other, and he goes at the job with the gusto of hungry man tackling hot meal
 There Is plenty of action in the throwing of Bobby Wallace of the St. Louis Browns, who, however, appears to have more control over his move ments, more finish, than Tinker The arm part of Wallace's throw is of attractive proportion in it's swing and elevation.
