AGREEMENT NOT

OF LAST YEAR EE P.2NS'vVEu.

.FAILED TO

They did so last year, but it was quiek-

t,sts

foiintf "d('triment.i 1 to the vital interof a number of the individual and ^enker roads and these immediately jvithdrew. If they can be persuaded to come in for next year the result will be Highly important and beneficial for the •agreement will be altogether stronger.

When the president/ last, met to act upon the agreement it was oP.cially stated that they had reafTir'n^.l the one of the lost year, notwithstanding that some of tlios.e who had been its warmest friends in the beginning were understood t'o be unalterably opposed to its continr because of the manner in which if had been evaded in both snirit and letter. This was a great surnrise and to none •.more than the executives of Western lines who had been, made agcTessivelv indignant, by the manner in which certain trunk lines having contro1 of connections tVest of trunk lines termini had obtained Annual passes for their officials by putting them on the list of those connecting ronds. as regular representatives. Ik They did not propose to be caught •igain in that way, however, and while it \va.s the intention to refuse to issue any "siich transportation next year, such ac.tion was held! in abeyance when informa.tioit was received that the trunk lines' previous action was not absolutely decisive,^ut was likely to be amended. Since tliat time the WJEtern trunk lines have remained inactive pending the meeting to be held in New York. They have had a consultation, though, with a view of learning if possible what the prospects were.

While the presidents of the trunk lines Will not give any details of what is probable for the coming year and are extremely reticent upon the whole subject pf discontinuing this class of free transportation, it is frankly admitted that if an agreement is finnJly made'it wall not be the same as the one which expires this hiorith. Beyond that, however, they will not-say anything.

Presidents Asked to Testify. President A. J. Cassatt of the Pennsylvania Railroad, President W. H. Newman of the New York Central and the Lake Shoi-e roads, President W. H. T'msedale of the Delaware, Lackawanna &, Western, President. Underwood of the Erie. President Spencer of the Southern Railway, President L. P. "Lorse of the Baltimore & Ohio, and President M. E.

THE CASE

Believes That the Large Engines Now Being Used on Some Lines Will Be Abandoned.

Though the Southern Indiana railroad is known to buy ti.e best ol everything in the matter of equipment, it is a noticeable fact, that their engines are not of the giunt type now being purchased by many of tiie roads "Why is that the ea&e'' an ollieial of the road was asked lie replied that it was not because the S. I. dkim't have the n.oiiey to get a larger type if it wanted tliem but because they didn't believe that railioads would continue to use them for any great length of time.

All S. I. locomotives are of the same size and according to the standard set by the. enormous machine now being employed by most of the railroads, they are undersized This is not only true of those engines they already have on hand but even of those which they have recent lv ordered for the Evansviile extension. It seems queer to those interested in railroad affairs that this should be so, for it is plainly their policy to buy the best there is to be had in every thing. They need big engines, if any one does because their traffic is practically all freight, and they have trains running continually.

The reason is that big locomotives are believed by the officials to be somewhat of a fad, which will soon react in favor of a smaller machine. The big engine after it passes a certain point in size will haul very few more cars and in order to haul those few. burns up nearly as much coal as a smaller engine would burn to haul a train with the few cars left off. In other words, it is considered poor economy to burn nearly twice as much coal to haul seventy-five cars as it would to haul sixty-five.

A CURE FOR CROUP.

A Terre Haute Mother Tells of a Simple Remedy for This Disease. Editors of the Terre Haute Tribune:

Last winter while visiting in Ithaca, N. Y., famous as being the seat of Cornell University, a frk»ud told me of a medicine that was made there which had cured her children of the worst attacks of croup and which, when used in time, had prevented the disease." Naturally I did not believe it woulu have any more effect than the many things I had used, but I resolved to try it, and as' my youngest child is predisposed to croup, whenever she seemed croupy I pinned to her night robe close under the chin, on going to bed, a piece of flannel cloth dampened with a few drops of Hyomei. This has thus far prevented all attacks and I feel sure there will be no more croup in my home. ^My sister and her little child were visiting me last week', and one night after the little girl had been out of doors playing in the wind, "she awakened the whole house with a hoarse, barking cough and it seemed as though the poor little thing would strangle to death. I immediately got my bottle of Hyomei, put about 20 drops of it on a piece of flannel and held it close to her face so that she could breathe it freely. This broke the spasm almost immediately and after adding a little more Hyomei to the cloth, I pinned it to her night robe under the chin and she was soon asleep. I forgot to say that I also rubbed the front of her chest and neck with Hyomei bairn. The effect of this fareatiri-ent was immediate.

I feel so grateful for my wonderful relief that I have the most earnest desire to let mothers know of this preventive and cure for onQ of the most dreaded diseases of childhood. I hope you will print this letter in a prominent place so that every mother may see it.

Yours verv truly MRS. E. S
