SHUT IN VAUlTED HUMlD0R
TIme-Lock Device Protecting 100000
or SO Choice Havanas Catches
Clerk Mapping.

Chicago.-Fred Rosenthal, a cigar
clerk at 10 Monroe street, has always
loved the aroma of a good cigar, and
especially OF the imported variety, but
the aroma of 100000 cigars which he
was forced to inhale for two hours the
other day has completely cured him
of his fancy.
At 2:30 o'clock the other afternoon
Rosenthal entered a new steel vault
holding 100000 cigars, which the II.
NJ. Schermerhorn company has had
recently installed in its store. AS he
stepped within, the automatic lock
sprung. closing the heavy double
doors and Rosenthal saw no hope but
to wait until the lock would automatic
ally open at the next morning.
In the meantime the patent humi'
doris. which are installed In the vault
to keep the cigars most, worked over
time and filled the alright compart-
ment with the strong, damp fumes OF
the Havanas
Rosenthal kicked on the door, but to
no avail. and the fumes began to make
his head spin around like top. Be-
cause of the confusion on the first
floor, when the afternoon trade was at
its height, no one paid any attention
to the young clerks knocks.
1t was two hours later. when
Charles Link, the chief clerk, jour.
neyed up to the vault to procure a
particular brand of imported "stogies, .
that he found the door locked and
heard faint noise within. He hur
riedIy worked the combination and
threw open the door.
Forth stumbled Rosenthal, sallow
and pale, and he staggered as II in a
drunken stupor. After a couple OF
hours rest on couch In the Office he
was able to again resume his work
but feeling weak and faint. And now
the other clerks are kidding him with:
"Oh, you imported aroma"

wHATLL RAILWAY ORDERS DO?
Doubt as to What viii Be Done in
Mcnamara Affair.

What will the railway men do should
a call be issued by the heads of the
various brotherhoods to contribute
funds for the defense of the Mona
(CaL) Sun.
This question has often asserted it
self in conversations between local con-
ductors, brakemen, engineers and
others of the operative forces. They
have their organizations and are Won
dering if the executives of their or
ders will issue instructions to levy
upon each individual lodge per cap
tia assessment of members, the money
to be devoted to aiding the alleged
dynamiters.
The Brotherhood of Railway Train
men, Order of Railway Conductors, B.
of L. E. and B. of L. F. are organiza-
tons of workingmen banded together
for mutual protection, but are recog-
nized as being in sphere by them
selves when compared to the trades
unions. They are really more of Sc
cret society than a union.
For this reason it is not believed the
railroad men will mix in the affair at
all. Then there is a second reason,
and a very good one. The railroad
companies, should it come to official
ears that employees were contributing
toward the defense of alleged dyna-
miters, would be apt to take stringent
action to prevent any such demonstra-
ton, and those guilty OF encouraging
such a matter would be liable to Sc
we're censure.
The popular view of local railroad
employees is that 1t is not a matter
for the railway brotherhoods to med
die with. A number have decided
opinions upon the point. and person
ally state that, although members or
the brotherhoods, if any such order
should be issued as that asking them
to "dig down. they would fatty re-
fuse to do so, as it is no fight of theirs
So the prevailing sentiment is to let
the case strictly alone and allow the
radicals to fight it out along their own
lines.

Lincoln, Neb., May 4-The Lincoln

ing the entire transaction, would be
$44.55. But as 1 have reason to suspect
that the horse will be shipped posi-
bly,, from Topeka think it would be
perfectly proper for me to indicate
that you will have to dig little deep
err, as the rate on the horse from To-
peka to East FIT. Madison is the ex-
ceedingly low figure of $3.50 and the
rate on the trusted employee would be,
according to Jerry Blacks passenger
schedule, $7.65, instead of $3.50 from
Kansas City, or if the horse is to be
shipped from Topeka the entire amount
which you will be compelled to pass
over the counter to the trusted en-
ployee of the Santa Fe, $51.70.
IT regret very much that this rate is
as low as it is, as it is just such low
rates as this that cause us considerable
trouble before the commission and
anxiety in our relationship with the
public.
81 hope that you will see your way
to give us your patronage.

SLOAN TO MANAGE STABLES.
Greatest Jockey in the World Can Not
Secure Reinstatement

New York. May 4.-Friends of Tod
Sloan, once the greatest jockey in the
world, learn that he secured a contract
for the management of the big Brus-
sells racing stable of Theodore Movers.
He hopes to reeoup his fortunes on
this new job. Sloan still weighs less
than 1O8 pounds and frequently climbs
into the saddle for tryouts. He can
not ride in colors, however, for the
reason that the English Jockey club
has steadfastly refused to reinstate
him. He has been on the ground now
for nearly ten years, and has tried his
hand at many occupations, including
automobile demonstrating and avia-
ton.
Frequent attempts have been made
to secure Sloan's reinstatement from
the English Jockey club, but without
success. The nature of Sloan's offense
In England was never made known,
and his friends have always insisted
that prejudice and persecution were
the causes of his predicament. He is
said to have earned nearly $500. 600 as
a Jockey, but the money went as easily
at it came.

LIMIT ON SIZE OF TRUNKS.
Extra Charge on Each Inch Over
40 Inches in Dimension.

Chicago, May 4.-To what extent
railroads should collect excess charges
for carrying trunks exceeding the reg
ulation size will be the subject of
conference which will be held during
the present week among representa-
tives of clothing houses and other
commercial concerns affiliated with
the Chicago Association of Commerce.
According to the new rules governing
the handling of baggage adopted by
railroads throughout the country there
will be an extra charge after January
L next on all trunks handled at the
rate of 10 pounds for each inch over
40 inches in dimension. In addition
to placing a special tax on trunks
whose largest dimension exceeds 40
inches the railroads have decided to
refuse to handle any trunk which ex-
ceeds 70 inches. Trunk manufacture
ers and clothing and millinery houses
have taken exception to the proposed
advance in charges and have obtained

ONE AS GOOD AS THE OTHER.
C. S. Gleed's Race Horse No Better
Than 'sThe Old DObbin.''

The disposition Of race horse with
a fast track record and the disposition
of a trusted employee with a record
for honesty and industry has nothing
to do with the charge of railroad rates.
This is illustrated by recent cores
pondence between G. S. Gleed, presi-
dent Of the Missouri & Kansas Tele-
phone company and J. r. KoontZ, gen.
eral freight agent of the Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fe railway both of To-
peka.
Mr.. Gleed has a race horse, Pat My
Boy" that has made great records on
the Grand circuit. Figuring on ship
ping his horse east Mr.. Gleed wrote to
Mr.. Koontz for rates.
Here is the correspondence:
Mr.. Gleed'S letter:
horse to Cleveland, o. I desire to send
in charge of the horse Mr.. Robert
Reeves, a colored man in my employ. l
wish to know what it will cost to do
what I want to do. The horse is a
great big horse and certainly weighs
a whole lot per ton, but he has a lovely
disposition and trotting records of
2:17%. The colored man is a sober and
industrious gentleman whose views are
somewhat liberal, but who always
votes the Republican ticket. If you can
tell me how to get the pair to Cleve-
land for the least money, 1 shall con-
slider you now as heretofore one of my
best friends"
Mr.. Koontz replied:
my Dear Mr.. Gleed:-Not because it
is you, nor because you are one of the
best friends that ever had, nor for
the special reasons as assigned as to
the qualifications of Mr.. Robert Reeves,
the trusted employee, but simply be-
cause the tariff requires it, the rate
on the large, fine trotting horse with
a 2:17% record, if shipped from Kan
sas City to Cleveland, would be as fol-
lows, towit:
From Kansas City to East TT. Mad
ison, $12; fare of trusted employee, Mr..
Robert Reeves, would be the same as
for Colonel Roosevelt, $3.50 from Kan
sas City to East FIT. Madison.
From East Fit. Madison to Cleve-

2:17% and the trusted employee would

gone ahead, the amount which you

Tucson, Ariz., May 4.-The compre-
hensive plan of President Diaz for
transportation facilities includes lines
of railway along the east and west
been granted B. F. Yoakum and assoc
ciates of the Frisco railroad to extend
the Mexican Gulf Coast line, which
now runs from Houston to brownsville.
down as far as Merida, Yucatan, touch-
ing at Tampico, Tuxpan, Vera Cruz,
Coatzacoalcos and Compeche. On the
west coast the plan includes the extern
sion of the Sonora railroad from
Guaymas, via Topolobampo, Cuhacan'
Mazatlan, San Bias, Colima, Ometepec.
Salina Cruz, Tehauntepec, Tonala ana
Ayl1tIa to Ocos, to connect with the
Guatemala system, which has been
completed to the Mexican border.
The southern end of this system mas
been built and is in operation from Te-
hauntepec to Ocos and Ayutla, and it is
possible to ride from New YORK TO
Guatemala City by rail, via the Next
can Central or Mexican National, the
Vera Cruz, Tehauntepec and Pam
American railway. The latter, being
the last link in the SYSTEM and ex-
tending from Tehauntepec to the
Guatemala border, was built by a Los
Angeles syndicate, and about a. year
ago was sold to the government OF
Mexico tn 'ough Mr.. Thompson, the
American ambassador. 1t is now O
part of the government system, winch
includes nearly all of the railway lines
in the republic, except the Southern
Pacific Railroad Of Mexico, which runs
from Nogales, on the Arizona border,
to Topic, near the port of San Bias, los
miles west Guadalajara.
The trains are not yet running to
Topic, but will be in regular operation
within a few months, and the extension
to Guadalajara will be completed as
rapidly as possible thereafter. From
GuadaIajara there is railroad via
Guanajuato and Queretaro to the City
of Mexico, and the connection will be
completed within the next year or two.
A sleeping car leaves Los Angeles
every night for San Bias, via Tucson,
Nogales and Guaymas. The distance
is 1902 miles and the journey is made
in four days. 1t is 567 miles from Los
Angeles to Nogales, 255 miles from
Nogales to Guaymas and $40 miles from
Guaymas to Topic. From Topic to
Guadalajara, the ultimate terminus, is
10S miles, making a total distance of
/ $40 miles from Los Angeles to Guada-
lajara. The same journey may be
made by the Mexican National via FL
Paso, or by the Mexican National via
Eagle Pass, but the west coast line is
considered shorter. .. ...
1t is the intention of the government
to extend the west coast railway the
entire distance, as I have suggested,
but the construction will not be under
taken for some time.
