What Marines Have Done

The assembling of so large a force
of marines in China was in accord
ance with the unbroken practice of
the marine corps of having a sufficient
force on hand to serve as an advance
guard TO seize and hold landing places
for the army in any foreign opera
tions. In Cuba it was the marines who
seized and held Guantanamo and gave
the navy base or shore many days
before the first soldier was landed on
the beach. In the famous Boxer cam
paign IN China. it was the marines led
by the late Admiral (then Captain)
McCalla, who first got within the lega-
tion compound and enabled the little
garrison TO hold out until the inter
national army arrived.
Again at Panama the marines We're
to the fore in promptly seizing the
| line of the Panama Railway and pre-
! venting the clash between the Colon
| bians and Panamaians that might have
made the Panama canal nothing more
| than an engineers dream during this
| icentury.

Movements Made Quietly

Washington, Jan. 15.-Nine hundred
men of the United States Marine Corps
are now in China, dispatched there
from the Philippines in small numbers
since last October
The United States as early as that
date was moving quietly in prepara-
tiOn for any eventua1ity in China.
With this marine force and the bat
talon of 500 nfantrymen now on it's
way, the United States Will be well
equipped for its share of the inter-
national work in China.
In October when official and private
reports from Admiral Murdock, the
commander chief of the Asiatic fleet
and marine officers in the Far East,
were received by officials here, they
began to realize the probable extent
of the .diSaffection in China. Very
quietly and without awaiting any in
structions from the State department,
a movement was begun to strengthen
the small force of marines then in
China. Altogether almost full regi-
ment of marines has been gathered in
China without publicity and marine
officers are chuckIing over their sue
cess in having at the seat of trouble
twice as many men as the army will
have even after the transport Logan.

WN.S He

When f. ed Winters departed for

gagement between him and Ruth Burt,
and that when the war was over and
the lieutenant came marching back
again there was to be wedding.
BY and by there came strange ru-

they be traced to fountain head, but
those who held them in greatest con-

man that first set the rumor afioat!"
And the youth pulled out his chest
and walked to and fro in the long
parlors and tried to look determined
and ferocious.
When Miss Ruth's letters ceased to
put in an appearance, Mr.. Winters was
on his dignity at once. There was some
good reason, but was it for him to beg
it? He had written last, and now he
must wait. At the front there were no
rumors of cowardice. 1t was the other
way. Lieutenant Winters had received
high praise from his superior officers

.0VfRtAAaGR / CAUSED
BY IMPROPER BILLING
Ii Bills of Lading Are Properly Fill
ed Out Less Confusion Would
Result.

"A railroad would rather spend
two dollars to avoid an overcharge,
than half that sum in adjusting one,' .
says E. o. Mccormick, vice presiden,
in charge of traffic on the Southern
Pacific. One of the common causes
for overcharge claims is the failure
OF the shipper to properly describe
the article on the shipping ticket,
and in such cases the bill OF lading
carries erroneous information.
Claims, in many instances, arise
from causes beyond the control of
the railroad company, and can he
avoided only through the active in
terest and cooperation of shippers.
Another cause for overcharge claims
is llegible and poorly written tick
cts and bills of lading. The use OF
authorizations also makes a great
deal of trouble. Frequently these
alleged overcharges are really un-
derchargos. Proper description OF
the article shipped is one of the bes:
methods of avoiding overcharges, ga
the officials. 1t means much delay
to the shipper when the railroad
company has to adjust these, and
the company is able to save much
of this delay and expense principally
by having the agents and shippers
see that proper descriptions and
correct addresses are we'll written
or printed on the shipping tickets
and bills of lading.
