QIJAsHED
Are Several Indictments for
Obstructing an Alley in
Glen Elk.

Two mlsdemeanor indictments
against every one of the following
companies and four against them all
Jointly were quashed by Judge
Raymond Maxwell CT the criminal
court Friday morning on the ground
that they did not come within the
meaning OF the statute:
The Williams Hardware Company,
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, Morris Grocery Company,
Koblegard Company, and the Stand
ard Milling Company.
The offense charged was the OBJ
struction OF an alley in Glen Elk.
Judge Maxwell held that the statute
applied to public roads outside the
city only. The common law, how
ever, covers such offenses as are
charged making them nuisances,
thus paving the way for new indic.-
ments.

DIE|
Through Rates Over South
ern Railroad Lines Are
Asked For.

WASHINGTON. Mar. 1O,-AllegIng
that many of the southern railroads
are maintaining grossly and unlaw-
fully excessive rates" over the large
territory covered by their lines, and
refusing joint through rates to many
important points, the international
Agricultural Corporations filed with
the Interstate Commerce Commission
today petition asking not only for
relief from the present rates but also
for the establishment Of reasonable
Joint through charges. The petition
also asks reparation for large
amounts already paid under protest
over and above fair rates. The
amount in dispute will reach $780,
600 by the time ruling is obtained.
On sulphuric acid, which when
combined with phosphate rock makes
acid phosphate, the basic ingredient
of commercial fertilizers, the Com
mission is asked TO order reductions
of from 40 to 60 per cent in the rates
now offered from Copperhill, Tenn,
where 100000 tons of sulphuric acid
are produced annually, TO Richmond,
Norfolk, Savannah, Jacksonville, and
4 large number of other southern
and southeastern points.
The petition states that the pres
ent rates are so unreasonable and
excessive that the complaining cor
poration is unable to market its pro-
duct or use it in the manufacture of
fertilizer in many OF the most i'm
portant distributing centers.
Not only are the railroads rates
complained of as being excessive in
themselves, but It is alleged that
their charges grossly discriminate in
favor of iron pyrltes, the equivalent
in solid form of liquid sulphate acid,
although the transportation of the
latter is less costly to the carrier.
The Commissions ruling will be of
great importance to fertilizer manu-
, facturers and consumers. Owning It's
supplies of phosphate rock, the In
tcrnational could greatly increase
tho acid phosphate supply but for
the present high railroad rates on
dis predict.

VERY POOR
Is the Coal Mining Business
in the State Says
Chief Laing.

CHARLESTON, Mar. 1o.-John
Laing, chief of the department Of
mines, has returned from a trip into
several of the coal fields, and reports
the conditions of the mines good but
that the coal business is very poor.
Many of the mines, he says, arc
closed and in other instances they
are being operated but from two to
four days week.
When asked for reason for such
a condition Mr.. Laing stated that
the warm weather and the closing Of
so many of the big industries Of the
country was the cause for a short
age Of orders to keep the mines in
operation. The open winter always
plays havoc with the coal operators.
he commended, and added to this sit
uation was the fact that SO many Of
the big industries of the country had
been closed or We're running at only
apart of the capacity of the plants.
Reports Cut Out.
When asked IL the legislature had
given him sufficient funds to carry
on the work of his department, Mr..
Laing stated that he believed the
Legislature intended to be liberal
with his department but that for
some reason the department will not
get the money necessary to get out
a report unless come assistance can
be secured through the board OF
public works of the governor.
u asked for $500 more for the
contingent fund that l had last year
and instead Of getting it the amount
was reduced $500 below the amount
received last year. said Mr.. LANG.
This will not give mo enough
money to get out the report and mail
them as | am required to do"
Gets Three Helmets.
The department of mines did get
small appropriation 10 purchase
some oxygen helmets-three in all.
1t asked for enough to secuee such
apparatus for each mining inspector,
which would have been twelve. The
three, however, will be of much as
sistance although they cannot be
available in the different sections of
the state at the same time. The fail
ure to get sufficient appropriation
for getting out the reports will be a
serious handicap to the department.

NE w MACHINERY
OF LATE ST DESIGN
In the Shops Adopted by the
Bs.&O. for Safety Of
Employees.

BALTIMORE, Md, Mar. s.-The
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has
taken a progressive step in thorough
ly modern railroad management
through the precautionary methods
this big trujlk line system has adopt
ed in It's shops looking to the safety
and protection Of its employees. sey-
eral months ago tho, Baltimore and
Ohio placed extensive orders for new
machinery of latest design, much of
it being for use in heavy locomotive
construction and other shop work Of
similar character, and practically all
of this machinery is now in use.
With the installation of the new
machines, improved methods of safe
guarding the men employed to ope.-
ate them were adopted, after careful
study by the roads motive power ex-
perts and an inspection OF several
large anulacturing plants.
Most of the new machinery, which
is electrically driven, has been in
stalled in the Mount Glare shops,
Baltimore, the largest on the Balti-
more and Ohio system. Exposed
parts Of the machinery that would in
any way jeopardize the safety Of the
mechanics have been protected so
that it is almost impossible for the
men to come in bodily contact with
them Guard rails have been built
to inclose the betting used for pro-
polling the machines, while exposed
gears have been encased under metal
covers. Notices have been posted on
these guard rails surrounding the
machines that it is against the shop
rules for employees TO oil. adjust or
repair tools while running and that
this rule will be strictly enforced.
In addition to this the large cranes
which are likewise electrically driven
and used for transporting heavy ma
terial from place TO place in the
shops, have been equipped with
gongs as a protection to others en-
ployed about the shops. All elevator
shafts have been protected by guard
rails and automatic drop gates, thus
eliminating the possibility of the men
stepping through and suffering per-
sonal injury. The foremen of the
various shops have been Instructed
to keep aisles free from distractions
of all kinds, to protect the men NOV
ing about from place to place carry
ing material.
These methods for the protection
Of men from injury are being carried
out to a greater or less extent at all
the shops on the system; in fact, it is
general progressive step through
out all departments of the Bal
timore and Ohio. Bridges are being
equipped with safety platform for the
protection of men working on the
track.
