Rock Island Notes.

There have been no ten-day stop
over privileges granted by the rail
ways on one way passenger tickets
since October 1 at Wichita and To-
States will have no stop-over privileges
for one way tickets after October 1.
On round trip tickets the stop-over
privilege will still be granted.
Work has been in progress at Well
ington, Kan, on the reballasting of the
Rock Island line through Topeka from
Harrington to Caldwell. Burned gumbo
ballast will be used entirely in the
work, which will cost in the neighbour
hood of 100000.
The Rock Island. as we'll as other
large corporations have of late years
introduced the pension systems with
marked success. In France they in
tend to do the pensioning on large
scale. One hundred million dollars
will be needed in the next budget to
carry their new pension scheme that
will embrace all working men. Eng
land already has an old age pension
system. Somewhat apropos of the
pension for workmen is the recent
of the City of New York. 1t estab-
lished that $3.50 was the minimum
needed to support five-personed fam
lily for a year, but that S535 was the
yearly salary of the average family.
1t has been requested by a number
of Herington employees in various de-
partments to present the name of Don
aid B. Lothian, trainmen's timekeep-
er, as the most popular employee on
the southwestern district
A large force of workmen have been
engaged in making the excavations
and laying the foundation for the new
railroad hotel and passenger station
for the Rock Island road at Liberal
Kan. The buildings are designed to
replace the hotel and passenger depot
that were DESTROYED by fire last March
The new buildings will be constructed
of brick and concrete and will be fire

NEWTON SCHOOLS ARE CLOSED
Epidemic of Scarlet Fever Has Not
Abated.

Newton, Kan, Nov AT meeting
of the board of education it was de-
cided upon the advice of DR.. L. T.
Smith, that the schools ought to re-
main closed another week, in order that
all further contagion may be avoided
There are now but 25 cases of scar
let fever in II families, but both health
officer and board thought it best that
the schools be not opened until the time
mentioned in order that here may be
present when work is resumed, the
largest number of pupils possible
In the meantime everything within
the power of the board of education
and health officer will be done to stamp
out the last vestige of the disease.

SOLDIERS GIVEN A SURPRISE.
Inspection Officer at Fort LeavenwortI
Orders Out All Troops.

orders Out All troops.
Leavenworth, Nov. 2.-Major General
Omar Bundy, inspector of the depart
ment for Missouri. who arrived here
from Omaha Tuesday for the annual
inspection of Fort Leavenworth, caused
surprise by directing that the entire
garrison command be turned out in the
afternoon equipped for field campaign
service to see if the brigade is on a
war footing.
Fort Leavenworth was practically
deserted at 1870 o'clock in the after
noon when all of the troops comprising
the Thirteenth infantry, Second squad
ron Fifteenth cavalry, Third battalion
engineers and battery E, Fifth field
artillery under the directions of Major
Omar Bundy, inspector general for the
department of the Missouri. marched
from the post to the grounds south of
Merritt lake and pitched camp, pre-
paratory to the annual inspection. The
position for the camp was laid out by
Lieutenant John S. Chambers.
After the camp had been pitched the
inspector general, with Colonel r. H.
R. Loughborough, Thirteenth infantry,
the commanding officer. proceeded to
inspect it. The men were supplied with
full field equipment, prepared to re-
main until Friday.
1t is the purpose of Major Bundy to
learn whether or not the garrison is on
a war footing. The order to prepare
for practice marches and problems was

RATE EVIDENCE Is ALL IN.
Arguments on EVidence-Then Dec1-
sion by Commission.

Chicago, Nov. REPRESENTATION of
evidence in the rate hearing before the
interstate commerce commission was
concluded Tuesday afternoon. Argu-
ments on the evidence will be heard
by the commission at Washington on
December IA and. after due delibera-
ton, the commission will announce
what it is generally considered will be
the most important decision ever en-
anating from it.
The hearing was instituted at the
instance of shippers who rose in pro-
test when railroads announced that
rates on SO different commodities
would be advanced. Opposition to this
became general and the railroads
agreed not to put the new rates into
effect until the interstate commerce
commission had conducted a hearing,
at which the shippers should be heard
as to the fairness of the proposed ad-
vances.
Hearings were held at New York
and Chicago, conducted st first by an
examiner, but later, owing to the para

the duty. 1t took the shippers only a
few hours to introduce evidence. but
an imposing mass of statistics and tes-
timOny went into the records for the
railroads. The shippers were repre-
scented by a number of attorneys who
confined their efforts largely to attack
to introducing original testimony for
themselves.
Railway men admitted that the adj
vance in rates on the so commodities
which formed the basis of the hearing
was merely an entering wedge, the I'LL
innate purpose being to advance rates
all along the line. According to the
shippers, the final effect of this policy
would be to place a tax of $500, 100000
on the consumers.
In a general way the argument pre-
scented by the railroads was that in
creased rates were necessary for the
following reasons:
1. Increased wages to employees.
2. Increased cost of maintenance
and operation.
3. Public demand for increased eff
cheney and expansion of transportation
facilities.
The position taken by the shippers
was that the railroads at present are
receiving a generous return on their
actual investment and, among other
things, sought to show on cross exami-
nation that the low rate of earning
shown in the statistics presented was
due more to over-capitalization than
to low rates

SAYS VALUATION IS ALL RIGHT
Interstate Commerce Commission Then
Gives Advice to Roads.

NIlNCS AObACC " LOOcAuSs
Washington, Nov. 2-Validation pro-
blems growing out of sale of limited
excursion tickets figure in two decis-
ions announced by the Interstate COM
merce commission. In the case of Geo.
w. Ritter against the Oregon Short
Line and other roads the complaint
that the railroad exaction of a so cent
validating charge operates as a fraud
upon the public is disposed of with the
conclusion that it is not violation of
the law to exact a part of the tariff
rate at the selling ticket office and the
balance at the validating agency.
At the same time the commission says
there is great force in the complaint
that good faith to the public would re-
quire railroads to state in advertise
ments of their excursions the total
amount which would be charged, in
Guiding the valuation.
In another case, the commission sus-
tainS and commendS to carriers gen
orally, the regulations of the Las Vegas
& Tonopah and three other western
lines making provision for refund of ex-
cess amounts collected on account of
passengers failure to validate round
trip excursion tickets
This decision dismisses a complaint
of a woman who had sought reparatiOn
for refusal of the Las Vegas & Tonopah
road to accept the return portion of
ticket she had neglected to validate at
Omaha.
