RAILROAD COAL COST
DRASTICALLY REDUCED
1877 Pounds Consumed Per 1000
Gross Ton Miles-Record
Best in History.
Rr the Associated Press.

by the AssoCldi-u IItsS.
CHICAGO, September 5.-Figures
regarding fuel consumption, says the
Railway Age, are the most striking in
the statistics of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, showing the oper-
ating results of the railways in June.
1.-The number of pounds of coal con-
sumed per 1000 gross ton miles of
road freight service was only 127. This
is the best record for efficient use of
fuel ever made by the railways in
freight service in any month, the best
previous record being 131 pounds.
which was made ifNAugust, 1924.
The making of this new low record
for Summer months was due entirely
to the Improvement in locomotives
that is constantly going on, and to i'm
prOvement in the supervision of en-
ployes and in the way that employees
do their work.

SAFE ROBBER is EXPERT.
Works Without Tools and Escapes
With 81 ,9OS.

Thieves entered the establishment
of Hatcher, Boaze & Co, commission
merchants, at 204 Tenth street, last
night and stole S40O in bills and
checks for S1,50S.60 from the safe.
Entry was obtained through a rear
window.
Police believe that the safe was
opened either by one who had discov-
cred the combination numbers or by
a modern Jimmy Valentine, who could
feel the drop of tumbiers as his sem
sitive fingers sought out the combi-
nation.

has been kept for those whose sen.
tences are long enough to enable them
to take advantage of the opportunity
of industrial training afforded. No one
is admitted to this prison with a SEN
tence OF less than six months, and an
11-hour days hours work, hours
education-is enforced. The results
have so far been encouraging and the
system would doubtless be extended
later.
Prison Spirit Changes.
There is a change of spirit in our
prisons today" continued the home
secretary. THE atmosphere is one of
hope rather than despair, and among
the prisoners there is cooperation
with the prison regime rather than
opposition to it. The prisoners look
upon officers as friends rather than
enemies"
Separate confinements in English
prisons had been almost entirely
abolished. Systems of voluntary edu
cation had been inaugurated and
prison libraries had improved out of
all knowledge. Cell windows were
now made to open and prisoners were
allowed to see visitors naturally, with
out bars. The object was to promote
sef-respect by avoiding any unneces-
sary degradation. Instead of stern
repression a new system of strenuous
training and education mad been
adopted.
The home secretary expressed the
opinion that short sentences were alb
solutely useless. A few weeks i'm
prisonment did not give the authori-
ties a chance, and was not long
enough to make people dread the idea
Of prison. He hoped that the system
of probation and fines would be ex-
tended

Federal officials dare not tread. A
brewery where the word Near" is un-
known would be turned over to the
veterans for one day of the encamp-
ment.

Several runners, carrying from 100

Solbadis companions fled and he

from Vests home. 1t contained about
800 cases of liquor.
Shortly after this chase the patrol
boat of Capt. TruaX pursued another
boat, whose crew of four men beached
it and escaped. This vessel was found
to contain about 200 cases of liquor.
