NEW B. & o. TRAIN
National Limited Is All It's
Name Implies.

Spick and span in minutest de-
tail, the National Limited, new all
Pullman train of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, started on its first
trip from the Capital City to St.
Louis, gliding smoothly out of Union
Station at $40 p. NJ, Sunday on its
23-hour- 40-minute journey. This
marked the first time than an all
Pullman service has been attempted
by any railroad between the Nation
ais Capital and St. Louis, the Gate
way of the Southwest.
Except for the route and its name
on the observation end, the new
National Limited is the same as the
Capitol Limited, which has been op +
ating between Baltimore, Washington
and Chicago for two years. It's add
ton provides both main lines of the
Baltimore and Ohio-the one to the
northwest at Chicago and the Other
to the southwest at St. Louis-with
identical modern train service both
westbound and eastbound.
The Capitol Limited during its
short life has built up a reputation
for comfortable and dependable serv-
ice which has placed it among Amerj-
cas- finest trains and the effort viii
h. 10 have the new National Limited
merit the same favorable considera-
ton from the Company's patrons.
Westbound the National Limited
leaves Washington at 6:2O p. NJ, ar
irving Cincinnati $40 the next morn
ing and st. Louis 5 o'clock that after
noon.
Eastbound it leaves St. Louis at ~
o'clock noon, arriving Cincinnati $40
that night and Washington 12:45
noon the next day.
All the features of modern passen-
ger travel are included in these new
trains in both directions, embracing
barber, maid manicure, train secre-
tary, club car, shower bath and OBJ
servation car 1t is also provided with
current newspapers, periodicals, stock
reports and bulletins.
While the National Limited west
bound will start from Washington
and its companion train eastbound
end there, passengers from other
cities such as New York, Philadel-
phia, Wilmington and Baltimore, will
be able to use its facilities the same
as if they lived in Washington, be-
cause through sleeping cars from
eastern points will go forward on the
National Limited from Washington.
Passengers eastbound for Baltimore,
Wilmington, Philadelphia or New
York, will likewise be afforded SINH
lar accommodations.

are being perfected by the Republi-

action by the finance committee
when the tax revision bill reaches it
from the house.
Senator Curtis, Republican floor
leader, a member of the committee,
said today, before leaving for his
home in Kansas. that he intended to
return early in October to follow the
tax hearings which will be held by
the house ways and means committee
beginning October 10.
Republican members of the senate
committee, he said. planned to fol-
low closely the house committee
hearings and the debate in the house
so hearings could be begun as soon
as the bill reached his committee. !,
Suggestions have been advanced
house leaders to put the new tax bill
in the hands of the senate before the
Christmas holidays. The hearings
before the finance committee will
be brief, Senator Curtis asserted,
and the bill will be reported quickly
to the Senate, with special efforts
directed toward having it passed be-
fore March, when the tax returns for
the next year must be filled.
Senator Reed Of Pennsylvania, an

London Aug. 27.-LP) - Con slider
able surprise. not altogether pleas
urcable, has been aroused here by
the terms Of the provisional settle
mcnt Of the French debt to Great
Britain as arranged yesterday be-
tween Winston Spencer Churchill
chancellor Of the eXchequcr, and Jo-
seph Caillaux, the French ministr r
of finance.
Each Of us had to put little wa
ter in our wine" said VI. Caillaux
in discussing the terms OF the GOV
ernmeni under which Franch would
pay her debt Of 100000 pounds
in siNty-two annual payments Of r.
100000 pounds each. if Frances ne
gotiations for wiping out her debt
to the United tSatcs prove satistac-
tory and if the French government
gives It's approval.
While some persons are of the
opinion that the dilution referred to
by VI. Caillaux would prove good for
hoth countries, there are others who
very strongly express the viewpoint
that Great Britain is getting too
much of the water and France too
much of the wine. The potion, how
ever, has no: yet been finally mixed,
and the people here are waiting to
see whether forthcoming Franco
American negotiations will bring
about a prohibitory influence on the
suggested composition Of the Anglo
French debt.
One adverse criticism Of the pro-
posal that France make the siXty-two
annual payments is that if this basis
were accepted, it would impose upon
the British taxpayer the payment of
a larger proportion Of the interest
on the French war debt than on the
French taxpayer. and this is regard
ed as an impossible position from
the British standpoint.
Another objection is to the pro-
posed moratorium for France until
1880. when the French treasury
would be reliesed Of aiding the Bank
Of France to liquidate its debt Of L.
3O0,000,OOO francs to the Bank of
England.
Anxiety is expressed in some quar-
ters that the provisional settlement,
if ratified, should put Great Britain
in a position of receiving from her
debtors less than enough to meet her
payments to the United States.
