STANDING OF THE TEA,

The game Saturday, in WHICH the Audit
ors trimmed the Trea surerites by the close
score of & to 4, was the fastest game
played in this league, it only taking one
hour and thirty-five minutes to pull off
the contest, which was at all times inter-
esting and was witnessed by a crowd
which rivaled the Departmental League
followers.
The Treasurers in their two games have
outhit the opposition, but have lost out in
both games by small scores. which is due.
no doubt to poor base running and fail
ure to take chances at proper moments.
Cooke, besides banging the ball hard
every time up and getting two singles and
a pretty double, fielded his position adj
mirabIy, and without doubt is the pre-
mier shortstop of the league. He has nam
died ten chances in the two contests his
team has played without the semblance
of a slip-up.

finger broken and was forced to retire III

him out of the game for at least month

Barges Severn and Arundel Finish
Loading at Alexandria.

The big sea-going barge Severn of the
Dougherty fleet, and the smaller barge
Arundel completed loading cargoes of
railroad ties at Alexandria in the latter
part of last week. and are at Norfolk
awaiting the tug that will tow them up
the coast to New York. The Severn has
aboard about 22,00o ties, all of which
were loaded at Alexandria, but of the
cargo of about 1900 ties on the Arundel,
about a third were taken aboard at DC
coquan, and the barge was then brought
up TO Alexandria to complete her load
The Severn is the second big barge to
load ties at Alexandria in the past month,
and lit is stated that another large vessel
is expected to arrive at Alexandria this
week to take aboard railroad material
for New York. The ties are being ship
ped by l.. \. Clark & Son of this city
who are also loading a half dozen barges
at river points and on the Rappahannock
and James rivers. The demand for ties
will be heavier this summer than it has
been for several years.

Sixth Presbyterian bunch to brace up

cannot make a showing to warrant it a

OBJECT OF THE TRIP

This is a campaign of Santa

bring about a better understand
between the Company they
represent and the people with
whom they do business.
There are MANY questions abOu
rates. service, physical valuation
and capitalization. which lately
have been brOnoht to the atten-
ton of the rNhlir, and the Of
ficlals say that IN some instances
heSe subjects have been handled
in a manner calculated to preju-
dice the public against the rail-
roads. The officials came here
10 get acquainted with the peo-
pie, and tell their side of the rail
road story.
The expedition, the officials de
clare, has no political signifi-
canoe whatever. It is a business
proposition pure and simple.
The new policy of the Santa
Fe will be to make a town to town
campaign with a party of from
three to six general officers at
least twice a year. These trips
will be made over the entire SyS.

for rate making. He called at

tended that the rate, based on a

maximum basis, and in support
of this contention, it has been
claimed that the decision Of the
Supreme Court in the New York
gas case, is to effect that if the
rates yield to the company a re-
turn of six per cent, then such
rates shall not be held to be I'M
reasonably low or cOnfiScatOry.
The Supreme court, in the case In
question, did not say, as claimed
by some advocates, that the earn
ing capacity should be ON a six
per cent basis, but the Supreme
court did specifically that if the
earnings of the gas company
yielded a return of not less than
six per cent. then such rates
would not be held to be prejudi-
cial to the interests of the lnveS-
tor in the gas cOmpany's securi-
ties.
In the case of the railroads,
the earnings have been, for a
number of years, ON such a basis
as to yield the investor in raid
road security, much less than SLY
per cent. In the case of the SAINT
Fe, the average return per year
for period of fifteen years, has
been 4.03 per cent, and for much
of the fOrty-One years covering
the life of the railroad, the earn
ingS did not warrant any return
to the investor.
