Members of the traffic depart
ley road met Monday in Houston to
devise a system for handling the
cotton crop of Northern Texas The
road is one of the biggest cotton
handlers in the southwest and is
looking for an enormous business
this year.
It's connection at Fort Worth and
Dallas with the Rock Island and
Fort Worth and Denver City lines in
sures it much of the cotton of the
Red river country, Oklahoma and
that country between Fort Worth
and the Panhandle Also it viii ham
die much cotton delivered to it by
the Frisco and the Cotton Belt
The scheme this year is to work
local freights, which will gather un
the scattered cotton along the line
and when a dozen or so cars are
punched" they will be delivered 70
the fast through cotton trains. 1t is
expected that it will be necessary to
run three or four of these limited
cotton trains daily to handle the
business.
By this method of gathering up
the single car shipments and attach
ing them 10 the fast trains in lots Of
ten or more the through trains will

Bought To Do a Nasty Job Says
Dr.. Richmond
OTHER CRITICISM PLENTY
Pastors In Many Places Devote Part
Of Their Sunday Sermons to
the Subject

Philadelphia, Sept. 1O.-The Rev.
George c. Richmond, rector of st.
Johns Episcopal church, who was the
first minister to criticise Col. John
Jacob Aston when his engagement to
Miss Madeline Talmage Force was
announced, denounced in his sermon
today the Rev. DR.. Joseph Lambert Of
Providence, r. l., who officiated at the
Astor-Force wedding yesterday In
Newport
1T has remained for a Demas' to
forsake our standards" he said. "One
minister has at last been bought to
do the nasty job. He was offered his
price. Worse than Judas, he has ta-
ken his thirty pieces of silver, and
in few weeks, hope instead OF be-
ing driven by his own conscience (of
which he is lacking) he will be driven
from his sacred Office and set to tend
ing an Aston garage or cleaning out
an Astor stable.
THE pastor of the Elmwood Con
gregational church in Providence is
disgrace to Gongregationalism."
DR.. Moseley H. Williams, clerk Of
the Congregational Minister'S associa-
ton, also criticised DR.. Lambert.
"Of course, can speak only for my
self, he said, "but unhesitatingly
say that it was shame and an out
rage. was exceedingly sorry to hear
that a Congregational minister per-
formed that marriage ceremony. 1t
was a union which no conscientious
minister should have had anything to
do with. do not think that any Con-
gregational minister in this city would
have married Col. Aston"
