LIVINGSTON WILL RUN
FOR SERGEANT AT ARMS
BY RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 6.-At the sug-
gestion of friends among the Georgia
delegation and other members of con-
gress, Colonel Livingston has deter
mined to make the race for sergeant at
arms of the next house, instead OF
standing as a candidate for the CLERK
ship.
There is a lively scramble for the
clerkship, and the position is worth no
more than that of sergeant alarms. 1t
is believed that Mr.. Livingston will ex-
perience less trouble in winning this
latter place, and moreover the duties
are more congenial and to his liking.

TRAIN Is SAVED
BY NEGRO FARMER

MARSHALL, Tex, Dec. 6.-To the fact
that a negro farm hand happened along
at the right time Is attributed the fall
ure of an attempt to wreck Texas and
Pacific train near Hallville, Tex, late
last night.
In making his way along the track the
negro stumbled over a series OF spikes
driven near the rail protruding far
enough to have derailed the first train
passing. Railroad officials are investi-
eating. In the same vicinity a quantity
of crossties and other distractions were
found piled on the track several months
ago.

PASSES UP LEE STATUE
DECIDES OBJECTIONS WOULD RE.
NEW BAD FEELINGS.
Encampmert Rejects Proposition to
Ask Congress to Grant 81
Day Pension.

Atlantic City, n. J. - After de-
bate of more than three hours the
national encampment of the G.. A. r.
at it's final session on the steel pier
indefinitely postponed action on the
controversy over the statue of Robert
f. Lee in Statuary hall at Washing
ton. The vote was 1873 to 102, small
total compared with the vote of SS7
cast for commanderin-chief.
The encampment rejected the prop
Osition recommending that congress
be asked to grant each Union veteran
of the Civil war a pension of 81 day
for life, but indorsed the McCum ber
bill now in congress relating to pen
sions of widows.
The question of the Grand Army's
attitude on the Lee statue matter was
one of the most important the en-
campment has had to deal with in
years.
The conservative element controlled
the encampment and won the day on
the argument that the bitterness en-
gendered in the Civil war was disap-
pearing and that sectional hatred
should not be revived; that action ad-
verse to the Lee statute would do
more harm than good, especially to
the G. A. r. and last, but not least,
that the state of Virginia, under the
act of congress in 1864, had the right
to place in Statuary hall the image
of any man from that state whose
memory it chose to perpetuate.
Feeling Ran High.
Among those who spoke for the ma
jority report were Commander-in-chief
Van SAINT. Feeling ran high and at
one time the commanderin- was
forced to direct the officer of the day
to compel comrade to take his seat.
A rising vote was taken and there
| was some doubt as to the result until
the tellers announced that the vote
| was 1O2 to 1873 in favor of the motion
to postpone. Following the debate
the encampment installed the newly
elected officers. Before Taps" was
sounded bringing the encampment to
a close Commander-in-Chie John E.

Philadelphia, Sept. 27.-John H.
Devine, head of large commercial
printing house in this city, has sent
the following letter to the president Of
the Pennsylvania railroad company:
Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. %, 1910.
Mr.. James McCrea, President Penn
sylvania Railway Company, Philadel-
phia, Pa.
Dear Sir: AS a stockholder of the
Pennsylvania railroad l have been
greatly surprised to learn there is an
account, long overdue. for transporta-
ton furnished by it to Theodore Roose.
welt. 1t is a matter of quite general
knowledge. so l learn, that this ac-
count amounts 10 more than 100000.
Whether the person owing such ac-
count be president or former presi-
dent Or whoever he may be, the IN
terests of the Pennsylvania railroad,
it seems to me, demand that there be
a settlement
Very truly yours,
JOHN II. DEVINE.
Theodore Roosevelt's extraordinary
travelling at the expense of the stock
holders of the railroads during the
first four years of his presidency re-
suited in congress apprOpriating $25,-
000 a year to meet the cost of neces-
sary presidential travel in the future.
The Pennsylvania furnished Roose-
welt with over 100000 in free trans
portation and in inner railroad circles
it has been common knowledge for sew
era years that this remains unpaid.
Publicly the Pennsylvania officials
will not admit that Roosevelt owes the
corporation anything. They say the
transportation was furnished without
any expectation Of payment; that there
is no account against Roosevelt and
that the items were charged up TO
advertising"
1t was the custom to carry the presi-
dent of the United States as free
and honored guest. The railroad could
not very well discriminate between a
bear hunt and a trip of the president
to dedicate a monument, SO no request
for transportation was refused. Roose-
welt rode up and down the lines at his
pleasure.
How the cost of transportation Of
foreign lines was apportioned has
never been made public. In railroad
circles it is said that the Southern
railway, over which Roosevelt trav-
eled south from Washington on many
occasions, has charge of $50 900.
The New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad and the Northern
! and Union Picifics also were gener-
ously patronized.
