NEW MAIL CATCHING DEVICES.
Washington Notifies Railroads to
Improve.

Notice from the postal authorities
in Washington has been received by
the railroads in Topeka to the effect
that improved devices for delivering
and catching mail sacks must be in
stalled. Two devices have been chosen
by the government, one of which
must be adopted although there are
four other patents pending, and it may
be that one or more of these devices
will be added to the list from which
to choose.
The step taken by the authorities in
Washington does not displease the
railroad officials, as they have often
stated that they were DESTROYS of hav-
ing a standard device prescribed for
them, and in that way eliminate the
possibility of sudden changes at the
will of different officials who become
convinced that another device is
preferable to one which they happen
to be using at the time.

SANTA FE IN TRAFFIC WAR.
e. p. & S. WIS Extension Opens Three
Cornered Fight.

San Bernardino, Cal, June 4.-As a.
result of the completion of the Ell Paso
& Southwestern railroads extension
from FL Paso to Tucson, the Southern
Pacific will lose considerable income
from traffic hitherto turned over by the
Southwestern at Ell Paso, and a three
cornered fight for freight has developed
in the southwest, the Santa Fe being
the third factor.
Hitherto the Southwestern has de-
livered all the freight destined for the
Pacific coast and turned over to it by
northern Texas to the Southern Paci-
f1c at Ell Paso, the Southern Pacific thus
getting a long haul. But with the
Southwestern's extension to Tucson
completed, it proposes to retain as
much of the haul for itself as it can,
and will be ready in another fortnight
to haul westbound freight as far as
Tucson. Thomas Schumacher, traffic
chief of the Southwestern, has Just
left San Francisco, after a three days
conference with Southern Pacific traf-
fic chiefs, called for the purpose of at
tempting to make some satisfactory
agreement with the Southern Pacific
for taking the freight at Tucson.
The Southern Pacific is fighting. it
is understood, to control the South
western to keep up the old Ell Paso
agreement. The terms offered the
Southwestern for hauling its freight
north from Tucson, it is further under
stood, are anything but satisfactory to
the Southwestern thus far and the lat
ter road is said, according to railroad
officials, to have threatened to reserve
its Tucson extension for Tucson bust
ness only for the present and to turn
over its California freight to the Santa
Fe. The outcome is being awaited with
considerable interest in railroad circles.

who have been in the service six
months or longer. Under the plan
employees will be privileged to set
apart a certain sum from their month
1y earnings, which is to be invested in
500 line securities, each holder of one
share, par value 1, in the proposed
management.
AS the 500 line payroll amounts to
100000 annually, it is estimated
that saving of per cent of the
wages of employees in this way will
amount to an annual investment fund
of nearly 100000. The plan has the
twofold purpose of encouraging thrift
and increased interest in the road on
the part of employees.

ing held in the courtroom in the after
noon.
Judge J. S. West, associate justice of
the state supreme court, delivered the

but said that there are some things
worse than war; for instance, to let a.
little island empire dictate the land
policy of one of our sovereign states
This sentiment was heartily applauded.
The address was preceded by patriotic
songs and flag drills by school children
and young men and women Another
and usual feature was the dinner
served by the Ladies Good Will So

Proposition.

Dodge City, Kan, June IA special
bond election has been called here for
June 25 to vote $4,000 bonds for a
new high school building. The school
board chose this method of relieving
the evident congestion in the local
schools over plans to build additions
to the various wards and to buy port

ton, make possible the addition of in

the board to take advantage of the
appropriation by the last legislature
for high school normal courses.

INCREASE IN MAY EARNINGS.
Substantial Gain of 10 Per Cent for
First Three Weeks.

Gross earnings of all United States
railroads for the first three weeks of
May amounted to S22, S55, 1923, a gain
of 10 per cent, as compared with the
earnings of the same roads for the
corresponding period a year ago. This
is a slight recession from the total for
the first two weeks of May, but is well
above the earnings reported by the
same roads for the three weeks in
April, the gain for that period being
only IL per cent. Practically every
road that has reported continues to
show more or less gain over last year,
and on some the earnings are large.

AGENTS MUST MEASURE TRUNKS.
Commerce Commission Sends Out
Rules on Excess Baggage.

Commerce Commission Sends Out
Rules on Excess Baggage.
Baggage agents in Topeka are now
required to measure trunks as a re-
suit of a ruling by the interstate COM
merce commission, that an excess
charge may be collected by railroads
for transportation of any trunk, the
largest dimension of which exceeds 40
inches. Instructions have been given
to baggagemen in the employ of the
railroads to collect an excess charge
ON every trunk of so-called unusual
size.
The rule of the interstate commerce
commission provides that a charge
equal to 5 pounds of excess baggage
may be made for every inch in excess
of As inches. The ruling of the inter-
state commerce commission was given
after a prolonged investigation.
The 45-inch rule is now in force in all
trunk manufacturing concerns.
