Gossip of Railwaymen

A passage at arms between Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Franklin
X. Lane and Peter F. Dunno of the
Southern Pacific is being repeated with
much amusement by the railroadmen
who attended the Los Angeles meet
ing
1t will be remembered that at
former meeting before the commission
Dunno was most anxious to place
George w. Luce. general freight agent
of the Southern Pacific, on the witness
stand for the purposes of immunity.
Lane overruled this request. and Luce
was not put in the exempt class.
The other day at LOS Angeles Lane
asked Dunno:
Have you any more Witnesses"
NO, your honor. have not"
Are you sure of that?" replied Lane.
Yes, your honor, l am. There was,
however, one time when I was anxious
to place a witness on the stand and
you would not allow him to go on"
"Ah, that was where you missed
golden opportunity, Mr.. Dunno"
laughed the commissioner,
A new team ferry steamer has been
at it's ship building plant at West
Oakland. 1t has a wooden hull, 2I2
feet in length AZ foot beam and 10
foot depth of hold. with four boilers
and tandem compound engines. with sa-
loon deck accommodations for 100 pas
sengers.
Owing to increasing business ii is
thought advisable to build a duplicate
steamer for the exclusive handling OF
automobiles, carriages, team traffic
and baggage between San Francisco
and Oakland pier Within the last year
this class of traffic has grown exceed
ingly and it is thought another boat
for this business will be able to cope
with the needs of automobiles and
those who use carriages In crossing
the bay.
.One of the greatest affiictions that
has to be borne with heroic patience
both by the transcontinental lines as
well as by the interstate commerce
commission said an old raflroadman,
'fs the claim broker. 1t is only ques-
ton of time until the shipper will be-
come as weary of him as are the trans
portation companies. These claim bu-
reaus seek out the little technicalities
In the tariffs on the basis of which they
make claims against the carriers, not
withstanding they themselves know
that the intent of the tariff is entirely
foreign to their intention. They call
upon shippers and tell them they have
been overcharged on certain COM
modify and will collect their claim for
so per cent for the amount paid. OF
course the shipper has nothing to lose
in an arrangement of this kind. These
claims are presented to the transporta-
ton companies and usually rejected. If
thew are legitimate claims the shipper

CHANGE-H e. Alameda. Cal. Several
young men have informed me that while with a
young lady they never examine their change
after paying for earfare, buying theater tickets
or coming from restaurant contending that 1t
looks cheap in the young lady's eyes TO do so.
Is that proper?
A young man who does that is play

money is no object to him. A young

change is returned to him creates the
impression that he is careful.

outside concern so per cent for collect
ing it, After these claims are rejected
by the carriers in many cases they are
taken before the interstate commerce
commission and the time OF the COM
mission and the employees OF the car
riers is simply wasted with questions
that are turned down usually by the
commissioners. The transportation com
