equipment is an electric carriage call,
which, when a large. evening entertain
ment is given at the white house, IS set
up above the entrance to the east wing,
or hat box. 1t is the same sort of de-
vice that is commonly used nowadays
by theaters. Each guest arriving in a
carriage receives a strip of cardboard
with a number on IL. Part Of this is
given to the coachman. while the other
part, which has a number of perfora-
tfons is retained by the guest. When
the guest, on departure, wishes to have
his carriage called. he hands the per-
fOrated piece to a man at the door, who
drops il into machine and touches a
button that makes an electric circuit
Instantly the number represented by
the ticket flashes out on the electric
board UP above. and the coachman, see
ing it, drives up.
This is a great Improvement over the
old method of calling carriages at the
white house by megaphone.

Want AN INCREASE
FIremen, Enginemen and Trainmen
Will Demand Ten Per Cent In
crease in Wages.
Special to The Neaos.

Special to The Net1s.
Jackson, Miss, July 26.-The fire
men, enginemen and trainmen on the
New Orleans, Mobile and Chicago
Road are going to demand a ten per
cent increase of wages. Mr.. w. A.
| Wilson, general chairman of the three
organizations, has been here securing
data on the earnings of the road, and
a formal demand for the increase will
be made within thirty days.
There are several hundreds of these
men, all told, and they are now re-
ceiving only 80 per cent of the wages
received by the engineers. 1t is their
intention to ask for 60 per cent, and,
failing to get the increase a general
strike will be ordered all over the sys-
TEN.
Mr.. Wilson is from Laurel, which is
the division headquarters of the three
organizations, and spent a day here
looking over the reports filed by the
New Orleans, Mobile and Chicago
with the Mississippi railroad commits
sloners. He sal dthe men thought
they were entitled to more pay. He
thinks the earnings of the road justi-
fy this demand, which would not have
been made if the net earnings had not
increased to point where the men
think they should have more pay.
The road officers have not heard
of the proposed demand for raise,
and it is not known how they will
view the request of these organiza-
tions, but it is not believed there will
be much difficulty in settling the
matter.

TAFT'S POLICY
With Reference To The Rivers AND

al United States.
Special to The NeaoS.


Washington July 26.-More and
more Is it becoming evident thai
President Taft struck a popular cord
when he informed the Congress Of the
United States, during the closing days
of the last session, that legislators
could expect a veto, If the next River
and Harbor Bill was not framed with
the view Of eliminating piece-meal ap-
preparations and appropriating for &C.
cepted projects In such amounts as
would hasten their completion.
The latest member of Congress to
express himself as being heartily in
favor of the Presidents policy toward
the rivers, harbors and canals of con-
tinental United States is Representa-
tive Ollie M. James, of Kentucky.
Mr.. James, who is an enthusiastic
advocate of waterways, said yester-
day: "The rivers should be made to
work. The transportation problem is
a great one and when our rivers can
be made to do their part the question
Of feight rates will be settled, for
