Girl BRINGS p Brothers to U. S.

Miss Marie Tufer, a young Viennese
girl living in New York, arranged
for the passage of a brother from the
old country, who will be the twenty
first brother she has brought TO the
United States in six years.
She was the first of the family to
venture to America and, settling in
New York, soon obtained employment
and prospered. Her glowing accounts
of the promised land quickly inauenc-
ed her brothers, who began to follow
her one by one.
Miss Tufer has acted throughout
as the American banker for the fam
lily, and as each brother made up his
mind to emigrate she would send the
money for his passage to the sister
who made all necessary arrangements.
The girl has the work thoroughly sys-
tematized When a new brother arrives
he applies to the German Immigrant
society, and as a result all of the
twenty brothers are now protitably
employed in and about New York. Only
the father, mother and one daughter
are left in the old home just outside
of Vienna.

According 10 Dr. W. j. Arlitz, Of
Hoboken. y. j.. there is no foundation
Rr q report that the doctors who at
tended Mayor Gaynor. OF New York,
after he was shot look TO the city or
the mayor to pay bills amounting to
about $4,000
A physician who did not wish his
name used said that the services of
the doctors would be estimated at that
amount He called attention to the fact
that the bills of the doctors who at
tended President Mckinley came to
$4,000 and were paid by the United
States government by special act Of
congress.
Dr. Arlitz said that none of the Gay
nor physicians expected the city to
pay the bills They had not sent bills
to anybody yet. he added, but when
they did send them in the bills would
be addressed TO the mayor himself.
Not until the mayor was back in har-
ness, or until the bills were requested,
would they be sent. he said.
In reply to the suggestion that $34.-
600 might be considered excessive, it
was pointed out that Mayor Gaynor
was in the hospital about three weeks,
while President Mckinley was attend
ed less than a week.

Taft VIII Be Fair to RAILROADS.

President Taft will give the rail
roads of the United States a fair deal,
He will not attempt to have any in
crease in freight rates by the carriers
declared ineffective by the interstate
commerce commission unless there is
conclusive proof that such increase is
unjust.
That is the substance of what the
president told T. j. Nolan, general sec
retary and treasurer of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Steam Shovel
and Dredgemen.
Mr.. Nolan called to tell the presi-
dent that many railway employees and
thousands of men who work for rail
roads, incidentally as to steam shovel
men. wish to see increases in rates so
that they can be assured Of work.
The president told me" said Mr..
Nolan, that he could be depended
upon to give the railroads a square
deal, regardless of the clamor Of po-
litical influence, and that furthermore
he was going to see that they got a
square deal"
