THE commissioner of the fourth
ward of this city is grading Boundary

point where your railroad crosses il.
AS the track of the railroad is sew

will be necessary for you Immediately
to raise the track to correspond with
the legal grade OF said street. or the

it over the rails
mo answer to this letter has been
received by the mayor up to noon
today and the work proceeded up to
that hour, at which time one rail on
the left-hand track was covered with
earth. At this time the men stopped
work. taking their usual intermission
of one hour for dinner. The train due
here at 1910 and that leaving at 9:3o
passed this morning without any

at 12:45.. the work east of the rail

with Mr.. w. 8. Cox. counsel for the
company here, are consulting this
afternoon as to what course to pur-

at $40 followed the example of the
2:40 and was switched on the east
track, being thereby delayed by some
minutes. 1t is. however. doubtful
whether the 4:20 train or the $40

distractions. 1t is quite likely that
legal proceedings will be taken in a

BUDAPEST IS MECCA
 OF RED AGITATORS
Many Citizens Hope for Allied
 Occupation as Relief Measure

Vienna, Jan. IA Correspondence of The Associated Press. )-Living condi- tions in Hungary have reached the stage where the only hope of the arlS- tocracy Is that the Entente powers will send troops to Budapest and to other parts of the country to save them from the dreaded menace Of Bolshevism. Many of the former aristoerats have gone to their country homes and many others would like to so to Switzerland, but are unable to obtain permissiGS to leave the country. The streets ~ Budapest are considered unsafe S&fer dark and wealthy persons employ soldiers to guard their homes
 Thousands of unemplo,anA in Buda- pest and other towns are receiving from the state 40 to 50 crowns day three-fourths of which is contributed by manufacturers, who are fast losing all the money they made during the

war. One of the largest n1unition firms, which recently employed 30,000 persons, is paying them 5,000,000 crowns a, week. It is asserted that this is tending toward the demoraliza- tion of the Workmen, who prefer to live upon the state rather than ito re- turn to work.
 Many factories have been brought to a standstill owing to the lack of coal and it is feared that flour mills may also be forced to shut down. The train service has been reduced to one train day between Budapest and Vienna the journey occupying 16 hours instead of four.
 The cabinet ministers, who, before the revolution, received salaries of 25.000 crowns, are now taking 100000 crowns. The number of under-secre- taries of state has been increased from 12 to v, each being paid 10000 crowns year. Immense sums have been expended in payment to inva- lid0d soldiers. A plan was suggested by which the sum of 25,00O, 900, 900

 These supplies are intended for refugees in districts where the Red Cross is operating distributing agen- cies, but there is included a special lot of clothing and clothing materials for Russian employees of the Trans Siberian railway. These men have stuck to their posts under most dis heartening circumstances and their devotion has eIicited a special recom- mendation for assistance from John T.

 The train carried seven cars of un- derwear, four of blankets, five of clothing material, one car of sweaters, gloves and socks, one car of childrens $ clothing, a car of fannelette, one of miscellaneous articles and several of drugs and hospital supplies and pro- visions.

SHIPBUILDING BOOM
 EXPECTED IN WEST
Wide Expansion of All Maritime Industries Is Predicted on the
 Pacific Coast.

San Francisco, Feb. 21.-~--An extea- sive development of shipbuilding and wide expansion Of maritime indus try in all of its branches is looked TOT by shipping interests of the Faclnc coast with the return to the world or normal peace conditions. This expec- ta,tion is based in a great measure on the fact that the Pacific coast Sut- fered comparatively little by the de- mands of war. while at the same time ifs immense natural resources were extensively developed by the govern ment for increased tonnage. Ihe coast is now equipped with more than a score of modern shipbuildtng plants some of them among the largest m the country. These yards were equipped u,itb every facility for turning out tonnage at the highest speed, and now that the war is over, these facilities will not be allowed to go to waste.
 Tn San Francisco, the harbor board recently announced plans for exten- sive reconstruction of piers and ware~ houses. Plans for an absorbtion of usual port charges by division of over- head expense brings to the front the free port movement, a subject which  commerce of all ports.
 According to Robent Dollar, a ship ping authority, Pacific shipping by America will come into keen compe- tition with Japan.
 Japanese ship owners" he said, have made enormous profits during the war; therefore, that competition will be backed by plenty of money. supported by subsidies for shipbuild- ing and for carrying of mails, advan- tages which Americans will be forced to com bat.'
 With the recently announced re- lease by the United States Shipping board of all requisitioned ships, and the turning over to private interests of governm ent- owned vessels. many of the larger Mines engaged in Pacific coast and Panama Canal trade are planning early resumption of inter rupted service.

Rayarian Minister Says England Did
 Not Hinder Free Trading.

Berne, Switzerland, Jan. 10 (By Mail. )--On the question of freedom Of the seas, Professor Friedrich W. Foerster Bavarian minister to Swift 2erland, said recently to a correspon- dent of The Associated Press:
 T must frankly admit the Germans had no reasons to complain of the lack of freedom in using the seas to develop their commerce and indus tries before the war. In fact, both America and England placed no ob- stacles in this respect"
 pr. Foerster declared that Prus- sanism and militarisnl now are dead n Germany--killed by the war-and that Germany will become a great re- public on the lines of America, but hat the process necessarily must be slow owing to international conflicts and the differences between political parties.

of the province of Shantung in China.
Great Britain and France, as everybody
now knows, in order to make it more
certain that Japan would come INTO the
war and so assist and clear the Pacific
of the German fleets, had promised that
any rights that Germany had had in
China, should, in the case of victory of
the allies pass to Japan. There was no
qualification in the promise. She was
to get exactly what Germany had, and
so the only thing that was possible was
to induce Japan to promise, and want

fair If didn I say it, that Japan did
Very handsomely make tho promises
which were requested of her, that she
