A PENSION SYSTEM
Proposed Change, Satisfactory ON
Other Roads, viii Affect over
10000 Men.

A pension system for employees or
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad lines.
following the example set by other
large roads OF the country, is expected
TO be inaugurated as soon as the I'M
certainty regarding the changes In the
presidency and vice presidencies is
ended. 1t Is intimated the change NAV
go into effect January l. next Satar-
day but may not be made until June
I.
Baltimore a Ohio officials are
known to have collected information
relative to establishing pension poll
cy two years ago. but the plans were
temporarily sidetracked by the bust
ness depression. Recently extensive
data has been collected on every divi-
sion relative to the length OF service,
age and average pay OF employees.
Statistics are said to be in such shape
at the Baltimore headquarters that the
system could be put into effect at a
moments notice.
1t Is estimated over 10000 men win
be affected on the lines OF the Balti-
more & Ohio. Popularity OF service
pension system from the viewpoints OF
both officials and trainmen has been
proved by the experience OF the Penn
sylvania.

HAD PRICE ON HIS HEAD
Gordon Was Suspected of Having
Hand In the Assassination
of Lincoln.

Memphis, Tenn, Dec. 31.-Sought
at one time by the Federal authori-
ties under a $4,000 reward for his
capture, dead or alive, for his alleged
part in the conspiracy that resulted
in the murder of President OF the
United States and now appointed as
member of the highest legislative
body of that country, is the strange ex-
perience of Colonel James Gordon, of
Okolona, Miss. who has been named
senator by Governor Noel, OF Mississ-
ippi. as successor to the late Senator
A. J. McLaurin.
Gordon was one of several Confed-
crate leaders suspected of being in
conspiracy with J. Wilkes Booth to
kill President Lincoln. He escaped
arrest and probably death only by
the Intervention, it is stated, OF a
Yankee colonel, with whom he cross.
ed swords in a fight in Virginia.

the assassination of President Lincoln.
the reward of $4,000 was offered for
/ his capture. Colonel Gordon went to
Canada, and it was several months
after the close of hostilities before he
! found it safe to return home.
During one of the campaigns in
Virginia, Colonel Gordon had crossed
swords with the colonel of New
York cavalry regiment. Both were
wounded in the conflict, but they af-
terward became fast friends.
Colonel Gordon wrote letter 10
this New Yorker, denying he had any
part in the conspiracy, and stating
that he desired to return home. The
former foe took the matter up with
General Dix, then in command of the
army forces in New York and the lat
ter sent him a passport and an invi-
tation to come to New York and sur
render, which he did. He asterward
satisfied General Dix that he knew
nothing of the Lincoln conspiracy.
Gordon took the oath of allegiance
and returned to his home to Chicka-
saw county, where he has since re-
sided.
