Chicago. Feb. 16.-Chicago shippers

years. Twenty-four hours has been
added to the time required to deliver
Chicago freight in st. Paul, Omaha,

these points the third day after ship
ment instead of the second as hereto
fore.
On all the roads in the Western

slower Chicago time freight" which
formerly was a phrase to conjure
with in railroad yards, now goes on
the same time schedules as the slow
trains. Never before in the history OF
railroading has there been such a gen
eral and sweeping change in freight
schedules. Prevented up to this time
by the interstate commerce commits
sion from increasing freight rates, the
rail officials say they are obliged to
resort to measures that will reduce
the cost of transportation. The change
has caused anxiety and alarm among
Chicago jobbers. who through fast
freight service have been enabled to
compete more easily with local whole
sale houses scattered fhrouphout the
middle west.

Lower House Passes Bill to
Refund Two Former Trus-
tees in Wayne County the
Funds They Lost.
MEASURE NOW GOES
BEFORE THE SENATE
Louis Bowman and Albert
Chamncss, Who Will Ben
eft, Were Victims of Hag-
erstown Bank Smash.

When the late John Bowman in
1904 wrecked the private bank at Ha-
gerstown Of which he was practically
the sole owner. by squandering the
funds Of the depositors. Lewis
Bowman. couny auditor elect, then
trustee OF Jefferson township, and Al.
bert NJ. Chamness, then trustee Of
Dalton township. lost $1,739.4S and
$2s5.4s. respectively. of their town
ship funds. which they had deposited
in the institution.
Both made good their losses to the
townships which they served as trus-
tees On Wednesday at the afternoon
session of the legislature. Representa-.
tive Lee Reynolds bill for the state
to reimburse these two former town
ship trustees was passed without
much dissent
TOGO to the Senate.
The measure will now go to the
senate. where 1t is anticipated similar
action will be taken. Representative
Reynolds Introduced the bill upon re.
ceipt of voluminous petitions from JET.
ferson and Dalton townships. which
were signed by the residents. asking
the state to take this action. Neither
Mr.. Bowman nor Mr.. Chamness had
asked that these petitions be started,
the action taken by the voters being
entirely voluatary on their part.
The loss which Mr.. Bowman sus.
tanned was nore than his total salary
for the four years he was trustee.
Bowman nd the implicit confid
ence of the tesidents in the western
part of the county and hundreds OF
people In JEFFERSON. Harrison and Dal.
ton township deposited their funds
In his bank. Having sole control, he
had opportunity to use the funds for
his own purposes OF which he took ad
vantage and when he had taken more
than could be ereplaced. he committed
suicide. 1t ws then found on inves
] tigation of the bank records that his
shortage was exceptionally large. thus
explaining his motive for taking his
life.
