RAILROAD TO COME
DOWN FROM CANADA

The Provincial government OF
Alberta has granted q charter to
eastern financiers, connected with
Standard Oil interests to build the
Dominion Western thru the province
Work will be started this summer.
Construction will begin at Calgary.
From there the read will run in a
straight line down to Pincher creek
from where it will go South to the
boundary line. This is all the infor-
maticn given by the charter. Those
who profess to know more about the
mysterious road, which originally
was to be called the Southern Pa
cific, say that it will come down
along the North Fork to the Flat
din Calgary it is generally pre-
dicted that it will eventually turn
out to be the Milwaukee & ST. Paul.
Our informant is the special cores
pendent in Alberta of the Vancouver
Daily Province, who makes the
above assertion with absolute con-
fidence in what he speaks about.

FIREMEN REQUEST AN
INCREASE IN WAGES ALSO

Following closely on the agree
ment of the engineers and managers
Of the SO railroads east of Chicago
to submit to arbitration the demand
of the engineers for increased wag-
es and changes in. their hours
of work, the locomotive firemen and
hostlers of the same roads have
submitted to the managers sched-
ule requesting additional ay,chang-
es in hours and in some cases the
employment of assistant firemen.
1t was stated on behalf of the
railroad managers that to. grant the
demands would mean an additional
outlay by the railroads Of between
s25.OOO,Oo0 and $30,00O,oOO. Pre-
viously it had been announced that
the managers would meet to discuss
the matter.
The demands Of the men en-
brace increases in the pay Of fireman
in the passenger and through local
and way freight services on switch
engines and for hostlers and helpers
on electric engines. They also call
for a days work of 10 hours or less
or of runs of 100 miles or less. A
stipulation in this latter respect is
that all mileage in excess OF 100
miles made within 10 hours shall be
paid for at mileage rates.

COMMEMORATE SENDING
FIRST TELEGRAPH ORDER

With interesting exercises and
in the presence of distinguished
gathering, tablet erected by the
Association of Railroad Superintend-
ents and the Old Time Telegraphers'
association to commemorate the
sending of the first telegraph train
order in 1851. was unveiled in
New York last week. 1t was from
the Erie railroad station, which was
then known as Turner, that the
first telegrpahic order was sent by
Charles Minot, the railroads gen.
eral superintendent.
The tablet commemorating the
event is Of bronze, and was de-
signed by Charles Keck of New
York city. 1t is six feet high by
three feet three inches wide, and
cost $4,000. The 1000 pound base
upon which the tablet rested was
quarried from the Hartman estate,
and was given ty Mrs e. H. Har-
riman The next largest contributor
to the fund was Andrew Carnegie,
who became telegraph operator
when he was IA years old, and who
is said to have sent the first tel
graphic train order on the Pennsyl-
vania railroad at Pittsburg in 1852.

Ruined by 4 Rseedina Sea.

Castle Rising is an instance of decay
brought about by receding sea, the
town, once place Of considerable i'm
portance, giving way to Kings Lynn
as the waters retired. A memory Of
the former relative positions of the two
places is kept alive by the lines:
Rising was seaport town
When Lynn was but marsh.
Now Lynn 1t II q seaport,
And Rising fares the worse.
But, though it lost its commercial
value, it retained its political status,
returning two members down to the
reform act of 1882. At that time it
had three voters on its poll list, but
the only person legally entitled to vote
was the rector.-London Standard.

RAILROAD BUYING HEAVY.

With the opening of May the rail-
roads placed orders for $4,000 cars
and 165 locomotives. Since April
contracts have exceeded $4,000
cars and 500 locomotives, calling for
about 100000 tons of steel bars,
plates and shapes. Similar contracts
are on the point of being closed
which will require about 100000
tons of steel. The principal orders
last week were by the Hartman
interests, the St. Louis & San Fran
cisco and Canadian Pacific systems.
