New Railroad
Yards At Cowan.
N. c. s St, L. Making Es-
tensive improvements on
Chattanooga Division.

Considerable enlargement of
The facilities of the n. 9. Il St.
l.. Railway at Cowan, Tenn, have
been authorized, and work on the
grading for the new yards there
has begun. The capacity
Of the old yards has been in
creased to 100 ears, and grading
is under way laying additional
tracks which will bring the
capacity of the yards up to 275
cars. A "Y' has been installed
in connection with the yard
trackage and work has just start
ed on Il new automatic coaling
station which will serve engines
on three tracks. The new coaling
station will be operated by cleo
tricty, and the chutes will later
ne cAtSuuSu 81 blldU lOuf TRACKS
may be served. In nut she'll,
the work under way at Cowan
means that the present capacity
of the yards at that point will be
doubled, and improved facilities
afforded in handling business
over the Chattanooga division.
Cowan is also the point at
which the Tracy City branch of
the F. c. &. st. L. comes into the
main line, and in handling the,
business off the mountain, and in
forwarding the business from
Nashville, and beyond to Chatta-
nooga two new Mallet compound
engines will be employed as
'pushers" to help the heavier
trains over the mountain, These
new locomotives are said to be
among the largest, if not not the
largest, in operation in the South. !
They weigh 100000 lbs without
the tender, or 100000 lbs with
the tender.
In connection with the work
at Cowan, which is now we'll I'M
der way, it is contemplated to
reduce the grade just north of |
the new yards. This reduction
will involve some two miles of |
track which will be cut from a
one per cent grade to tive-tenths |
of one per cent. This work will |
involve the cutting down of the
hill Just north of Cowan fourteen
feet and making a fill further
north of eighteen feet.
From reports gathered through |
out the South indications are
that business conditions will
improve materially; in fact, such
Improvement has already been
noted, and the work being done
by the N. G. &. st. l.. railway is
in futherance Of the policy of
preparedness" which the man
agement has adopted in handling
traffic over its lines.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

A few more days and Con-
gress will be in session in Wash
ington, but that does not mean
business will Immediately begin.
The usual time will be consumed
to preliminaries, and not until
after the holidays will the le-i>-
lative wheels begin to reyoive
regularly and steadily.
Democrats in the Senate AMI
House have begun their pre-
parations for the coming session
of the Sixty fourth Congress. AT
both ends Of the Capitol there
are evidences of Il desire for
harmony. which will lead to Il
careful avoidance of action that
will create friction within the
party.
With many mutterinGS of
trouble under the surface, but
with the conservative Senators
, trying to keep the peace the
Senate Democratic caucus has
reelected Senator Kern a> chair
man of the caucus, with Senator
Pittman, of Neva,la, as >ecre-
tary. Cloture is the foremost Of
the real questions of controversy
before the Senate. The caucus
sidestepped for the time being
the question whether Senator
Clark, OF Arkansas, who bolted
the Presidents shipping bin
plan last WINTER, shall succeed
himself a. PRESIDENT pro Ten-
pore of the Senate.
In the House, the committee
on ways ami means is deyoting
it, efforts to the vexatiouS prob
lem of how to satisfy every new
member with his committee
assignments, and how to acced
TO the demand of Minority Lea
der Mann that the largely in
creased Republican membership
of the House entitled that party
to substantial increase in COM
mittee membership. 1t is APP
parent that Democratic leaders
in the House, fearing insur-
gency as a result of their great
ly diminished majority, do not
intend to encourage rebellion by
materially endangering their
preponderating control of all
important committees.
The real Christmas spirit is
becoming apparent in the shop
ping districts. This week marks
the beginning of the real rush.
The stores are ready for the
early shoppers, and the display
of goods in windows, on coun-
tiers, and on shelves and in cases
is its,best. The indications are
that the Christmas season will
be ii good one, and that the peo-
pie Of the city will give gene
rously and to the best effect by
carefully selecting each rift.

TO TRY NEW HAVEN
MEN THIS WEEK
Twelve to Appear in Curt Wednesday
-First Test of Lew Holding
Directors Criminally.

NEW YORK, Oct. ll.--Eleven dircc-
tors and former directors of the New
4 rk, New Haven & Hartford railroad.
and Edward d. Robbins, general coun-
sci Of the road, face trial this week on
a charge of consPiring to monopolize
the transportation traffic of New Eng
/ land. They are to be called before the
bar in the federal court before Judge
Hunt on Wednesday.
While the trial is one of number of
/ proceedings that have been directed in
I the past few years against the New Ha-
wen road, involving the question of al
legged violation OF the Sherman anti
/ trust law, it is the first under which
! the directors themselves are brought in
/ to the court with the prospect of fac
/ ing Imprisonment. The maximum pen
atty, If they are convicted, is one year
in prison and $4,000 fine, as provided
in that section of the Sherman law
known as the criminal clause
The indictment of the defendants
which occurred last November, repre-
sents the efforts of the present admins
tratlon, 1t is said, to carry to an issue
IN the courts the question of the per
sonal guilt of directors of an alleged
monopolistic corporation. The proceed
:. ings were taken, it is understood at the
direct instigation of President Wilson.
; There were originally p defendants,
whose names are among the foremost in
financial affairs in the United States
Three Of these gained immunity on the
ground that they had testified at pre-
, vious New Haven proceedings, and SIX
were granted separate trial on the plea
that they were not directors when Ger
tain of the acts charged in the indict
ment were committed.
The II who go to trial on Wednesday
, are William Rockefeller, Lewis Cas-
: Ledyard, George MacCulloch Miller
Charles F. BROKER, Charles NJ Pratt
Edward d. Robbins, ID. Newton Barney
: Robert W. Taft, A. Heaton Robertson
g, James S. Hemingway, Henry X. Nc
Harg and Frederick f. Brewster. TIL
six last named are still listed as diree
tore of the New Haven.
The six granted a separate trial ar
George f. Baker, T. Dewitt Cuylel
s. Theodore n. Vail, Francis T. Maxwell
Edward Milligan and Alexander Coch
rane.
The three given immunity were Wi
liam Skinner, James S. Elton and job
Billiard.
The indictments were procured chief
~ on the testimony of Charles S. Me
len, ex-president of the New HaveI
who is expected to be the government
witness. They charge in a general wa
pr that the New Haven directors for tn
e past % years; in fact, from the day O
{, the enactment of the Sherman law, Jul
Of ,, 1890, combined under the control G
y. the road, virtually all the railroads, tro
ley lines and water lines of New Ems
land, which they did not drive out {
business, thus extinguishing all comp,
tition.

noon while on his way to the St. Al

ST. ALBANS MAN
DROWNED IN DITCH
Francis P. Ward, Recently Paroled from
the State Prison, Was Once
Pugilist.

ST. ALBANS, Oct IL. - The body
of Francis p. Ward, 50, was found
Saturday lying face down in the mud
in a ditch at "The Blocks. The au-
thorities gave permission for the re-
moval of the body to McCallister 5 I'M
dertaking rooms where an autopsy was
performed that afternoon by DR.. B. IL.
Stone and DIR. c. F. Whitney of the
state laboratory. 1t was determined
that drowning caused death, the lungs
and tracha being filed with water and
mud. The stomach was taken to Bur
lington for analysis.
A superficial investigation by the of
ficers does not give ground for sus-
picion of foul play. Ward had been
drinking heavily, it is claimed, and it
is thought he tripped over wire fence
and fell into the ditch. Over $40 was
found on his person which seems to
| dispel the theory of robbery.
| Ward returned to st. Adams few
| days ago, having been paroled in
| August from the states prison at the
expiration of a minimum sentence for
| burglarizing the Vermont Power com
pany's offices. He had informed ac-
| quaintances that he was going to make
complaint TO Gov. Gates regarding con
ditions at the irison.
In his younger days, Ward was {
prize fighter of more than ordinary
skill and figured in important bout
in Montreal and other cities.
