Washington, June 16.-The records of the American Beet Sugar Company showing expenditures in Washing gton were destroyed two years ago. A fund is collected and turned over to an agent ill Washington who does not have to account for it.
 The expense funds of Henry P. OX- nard, vice president of the American Beet Sugar Company is quoted orally by the Board of Directors and the cashier makes no record of the eX- penditure. If the free clause of the Wilson Underwood passes OXnard will start the formation of new trust and asserts he can do so legally.
 These are facts brought out by the Overman Lobby Committee today while Henry F. Oxnard, vice pres- dent of the American Beet Sugar Company, was on the stand.

There was not much romance in Meyndert Hobbema' S life. He was born in Amsterdam in 163S and was buried there ln pauper's grave in 17O9. So, 1t is seen, his work received small ap- preciation while he lived; though now he and Ruysdael are considered the greatest landscape painters of the Dutch school
 England discovered his greatness more than a century after his death, and nine tenths of his works are found in that country, because the English collectors gathered the landscapes before Holland awakened to their value.
 But maybe Hobbema had a much bet ter time than these few facts of his life suggest. Maybe he knew something of the contentment and peace of his pic lures, which so admirably typify the Dutch character. He saw the magical beauty ln familiar prosaic scenes of tho Dutch countryside, and these he could bring out in his paintings; for no artist has surpassed him ill truth of atmospher::' effect, Tn tone, in brilliance of color. Fig ures interested him not at all. It is said that when he found it necessary to put them in picture he had other artists paint them.
 Although he lived seventy-one years. there are in existence only about One hundred paintings credited to him. There is no mention of Hobbema in any sale catalogue until twenty-six years after his death, when two of his land scapes were sold for $4i. But the recog- hilton of his genius, so slow in coming, was none the less sure. In 1880 one of his landscapes sold for $il,OO0.

RAILROAD UNIONS
 WILL COOPERATE TWO BROTIERHOOBS WILL PRE. SENT FRONT IN DEALING
 WITH COMPANIES.
Delegates to Convention Here Believe Agreement is Most Important
 Work of Meeting.

Washington, D. C., June 16.-United action hereafter will mark all deal ings with the two great labor organ izatiOnS, the Brotherhood of Loco motive Bremen and Enginemen and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers, with the various railroads of the country. An agreement for the complete cooperation of the local and general grievance committees of these two organizations was ratified yesterday by the Brotherhood of Loco motive Engineers, which had been giv- en full power to act by it's organiza- tion. The adoption of this agreement is regarded by officers of both organ izations as one of the most important steps yet taken for advancing the in terests of railway employees.
 Work upon this agreement was be- gun about two weeks ago in Chicago by a special committee from each or ganizatiOn. These committees were composed of the field and executive officers of the two brotherhoods and number of brotherhood chairmen of some of the largest railway systems. The committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Enginemcn had power to ratify the work of the joint commit tee. Delegates of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen considered the agreement, section by section, through both morning and afternoon sessions yesterday, adopted it just before adjournment
 First Step to C0-OperatiOn.
 By the terms of the agreement, the two organizations will act together on all matters between either organiza- ton. and any railroad system. Mem- bership in either organization will henceforward mean the protection and backing of both organizations. It is further provided. that in the future, lowed to raise difficulties between the two brotherhoods. In arrangement of general wage-scales, the two bodies will act as one, also.
 One of the officers of the brother hood in convention announced that this agreement is only the first step to general cooperation between all four of the train service brotherhoods, which include, besides the two men tioned, the Order of Railway Train men. A similar agreement for CO., operation is already in force between agreement will go a long way toward developing a unity of action between all railway employees and the rail roads in matters at issue between them. In opinion of the delegates, the most important piece of work be- fore the convention has been accom- plished.
 Consideration of the terms of the agreement completely took up yester- days sessions, and debate upon vari- ous projected changes in constitution and bylaws will be taken up today.
 Delegates were well pleased with their work last night, and prophesied that the consolidation of the efforts of the two engine mems organizations would give tremendous impetus to the movement for concerted action be- tween all organizations of railway employees for more advantageous con- ditions.

 any respect whatever for his pictures, not even the won- derful Avenue at Middelharnis," now in the National Museum in London; but he was admitted to be competent wine gager. If, after his death, someone who saw the genius in his works had gone to Amsterdam seeking knowl- edge of him as a painter, the good Dutch folk would probably have said, "Meyndert Hobbema? Oh, yes, he tried to paint pictures. Foolish things indeed, "a pond full of ducks and geese, a moscow cred mill, little houses with red roofs, and sunsets,-things any, body can see for himself, mere daubs. Jakob Ruysdael tried to make painter of him; but"
 Then perhaps the bored tone would give way to one of lively interest, to the telling of something important.
 ! He escaped dying of starvation in the strangest way. He had a business head after all, had Meyndert Hobbema.
 "He married old Eltige, but maybe it was she who had the business head, for she was four or five years older than Meyndert and she had worked as a servant for the burgomastcr.
 Eltinge had girl friend who worked as servant to the burgomaster too, and she had great influence with him. It was arranged with this servant that, ii she had NIeyndert appointed wine gager he was to pay her out of his salary an an- nual pension of SlO0, unless she married and secured a similar: position for her own husband. The contract was drawn up all in proper form and signed before a notary, and the servant did persuade the burgomaster to give Meyndert the position.
