lime, that great IacIOf 1n the He of the men who guard the throttle on locomotives, was subjected to se- were treatment yesterday by a gatl ering of about 2,500 engineers, their wives, and friends, who took advant ave of the Michigan Central railroas age of the Michigan Central rail roads invitation to the Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers, in conyen tion here, to visit Niagara Falls.
 Two trains, each hauling twelve coaches, left Windsor at 6 o'clock in the morning, bearing the gay party. They raced over the country to Mia gara Falls, and performed feats un- precedented in the annals of rail- roadom-feats which older men of the road say will not be outdone in this age.
 The first train, Mo- S431, in charge of Engineer J. Savigny, bowled along from Windsor to Niagara Falls View a distance of PA miles in PA min- utes. The second train with George Blanchard at the throttle, made the distance in 217 minutes. The time in itself does not appear record breaking. But engineers, men who
 consider every phase of the trip, explain that the trains were hauling loads of extraordinary size.
 Since the Michigan Central has been running to Niagara Falls it was always the custom for the crew to change engines at St. Thomas. But yesterday both iron monsters raced right through. Of course, there were places where they were forced to slow down, unless, they violated the laws. l At Welland bridge the greatest de- lay occurred, the trains being held back five minutes by the condition of the bridge which is being rebuilt. But engine Mo- made the run from Windsor to Welland, PIP miles, in 201 minutes. while the first train reqair- ed 207 minutes. There were the usu- al water tanks wbich meant slaw- downs. but ether than that the trip was not marred.
 By special arrangements the gath ering forced old Father Time to permit them to speed from Windsor to Niagara Fals, spend six hours viewing the worlds greatest scenic wonder, and return to Detroit long before the owl cars were running. The party returned at the Michigan Central depot at 9.3O o'clock.

solution of the question Of the Monaco
ceptance by European banks OF American
cotton bills Of lading. Since the cotton
crop this year will be worth about $50.

IL, settlement Is desired both here and
abroad.
Several months ago an Alabama firm
OF cotton brokers failed. and several
banks in Liverpool. which held bills OF
lading for cotton obtained through this
bank, found that some OF the paper had
been forged Shortly thereafter notice
was given by European bankers that
after october 81 they would not accept
American cotton bills of Iading unless
guaranteed.
National banks In the United states
have attempted TO secure the permission
OF Comptroller Of the Currency Law
renee o. Murray TO a guarantee by them
OF such bills OF lading. He has refused
the request consistently, and in conse-
quence. the foreign bankers are coming
over 10 see IL they cannot find a way out
