BATES TO TIIE WORLD'S FAIR

Suggestions of Committees Named by th8 Central Traffic Association. Uanazers of the Lines Intemted lo Decide yext Week A General Passenger Ajjent SpeaVs for Ilia Department. At the regular meeting of the passenger department of the Central Traffic Association at Chicago, yesterday, the entiro session was devoted to a discussion of the world's fair rates. There was a large attendance, as all the roads in the territory, whether members of the association or not, ere represented, including the lines operating between Chicago and the Ohio river. After nearly every man present had aired his views on the subject, two committees were appointed to make recommendations. One of the committees composed of the general passenger agents of the Ohio river lines; the other was made up of the representatives of the eaat-and-weet lines. The first of these committees reported in favor of making a rate of 2 cants per mile for round-trip tickets on regular trains from i Cincinnati, Louisville, Indianapolis and I Kindred points to Chicago and return. It also recommended that a special excursion train be run every Friday during the exposition, oa which a rate of 1 cent per mile may be charged, such trains to be made tn of day coaches only and the tickets to be good for return passage up to the following Sunday night. The other committee recommended a reduction of rates only for apeoial excursions, to be agreed upon by the lines directly interested; also, that the regular tariff rates be charged on trains from points in the territory of the Central Tratlio Association when equiped with sleeping or parlor ears from points east of the eastern boundary of the association. There were other phases of the subject in which the committee could not agree. The reports were received and referred to the managing officers of the various lines who will meet next week. rA Word for tho Puitnr Department. "So common is tho remark that it is the freight department which makes the earnings, and it makes little difference what the passenger department does," said a general passenger agent, "that is has come to be believed that the roads would earn about as much without any passenger service. Investigation will show directly the reverse to be the case. It costs more to handle the freight business in every way. To illustrate: The passenger department of the Pennsylvania road at Indianapolis has nine men to keep matters running, the freight department eighty -live, including the fast-freight line men. The Big Four has seven men in its passenger department at Indianapolis, the freight department 122; this includes, of course, the clerical forces in the city freight offices and the line men." A financial paper says: The New York Central and the Pennsylvania have panned the wise coarse of building up the passenger business by the addition of excellent train service, passenger stations and other equipments to the interest of the passenger bualness, while the so-called freight lines have expended millions In elevators, sidings, tracks, yards and other conveniences for the handling of freight business which does not begin to yield them a sew dollar for an old one. If tho accounts of a railroad were properly kept and each item of expense charged to the different trade, passenger and frelrnt. It would show on an average passenger Una that the passenger business exhibits average earnings of CO per cent, of the gross, alter deducting expense for operating that department, while the freight, taking Into consideration the enormous amounts expended and the exceedingly low rate at which freights are carried, would not show 21 per cent, net of the gross. Another thing directors and managers should consider about freight and passenger business. As a general thing passenger earnings will from year to year show a healthy increase, nothing spasmodic, but an increase on a good business basis; while In the case of the freight It vacillates. Good crops, large groae earnings: poor crops, down go the earnings. Hence, while railroads have to decrease their dividends, owing to the reduced freight earnings, the passenger earnings remain the same. If they do not show a little lncrease. Another point. Hare we ever heard of a railroad passenger strike, bat how many strikes of railruaa freight men. Is this cot worth considering; Look over the list of accidents for a year. IIow many are attributed to passenger trains and how many to freight. I should say lo per oent. to the former and io per cent, to the latter. All this counts against the line trying to flo a freight business. In conclusion, the writer of the financial article says that were the accounts of the two departments to be kept distinot it would lead to some surprises. The writer of the financial article fails to mention how much business the freight department secures at the expense ot the passenger department in the giving of passes. Mast Be m Fopullte Scheme. President V. U. McBee, of the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta, the Western North Carolina and the Columbia & Greenville railroads, of the Richmond Terminal system, made a sensational spoech yesterday before the South Carolina Senate committee on railroads regarding the proposed railroad commission bill now before the General Assembly. The bill proposes to give the commission power to fix all freight and passenger rates, to regulate joint rates, supervise all contracts and agreements, to direct and control the building of all depots and warehouses and to arrange schedules. Kailroads are denied the right to appeal from the decisions of tho commission. Mr. McBee deeribed it as a scheme of confiscation under forms of law. He said it violated the State's contract to give corporations a chance to live expressed in tho charters granted them, and that it went beyond the idea of communism, which is to seize private property to be divided among the people, to anarchy, whioh means want or destruction of values without purpose or benefit to anybody. He described the present unfavorable condition of Southern roads, declared it was caused, in a great measure, by unfriendly legislation and oppression by railroad commissioners, and earnestly nrgsd that the properties bo given a living chance. He declared It the purpose of the roads to submit to the laws as long as they could, but intimated that if forced to hght for their lives they would do so, and would exhaust all the powers of me courts to secure protection ana a chance to exist. If the bill passed it would cause consternation in financial circles, followed by endless litigation. Floor Rates Disturbed Again. There is trouble again over Hour rates. ' A few weeks ago the Chicago and St, Paul roads and the Soo line agreed upon a uniform rate from Minneapolis to the seaboard, and the whole matter was supposed to have been amicably settled. It was subsequently learned that a reduced rate on through shipments was in effect by the Kewanee route, which has a boat-line link across Lase Michigan. Like other routes of this kind, composed partly of water, a differential of 2 cents is allowed, but only to points in the territory of the Central Traflio Association. The Kawanee route, without authoritv, applied the diflerential to sea-board traffic The Michigan Central and the Grand Kapids & Indiana reads, resenting this sort of competition, have met the reduced rate from Mackinaw, where they connect by transfer with the Soo. The Chicago-St. Paul lines are alarmed lest the whole fabric of Hour rates should again give way. Kothmg will be done, however. until next wtet, when the matter will 1 laid before the regular meeting ot tho Western Freight Association. Personal. Local and General Notes. The Toledo, St, Louis & Kansas City earned last month $184,001. an increase over November, lbUl. of ijos. General Manager Noonan yesterday appointed Harry I Wyatt to represent the Central States Dispatch at Chicago. Boston papers say that General Manager Jackson, of the Mexican Central, insists on the directors accepting his resignation. P. A. Hewitt, auditor, and K. E. Kreotheffer, general freight agent of the Big Four lines, are in the city on official business. In the month of September 55 per cent, f the earnings of tho Peoria & Eastern

road, with its inferior train service, came from its passenger business, and in October 52 per cent, 12. Kent Dixby.-chief clerk of District Fassenger Acent Brnnner, of the Vamlalia and Pennsylvania lines, is iutte ill at his home in New Albany. Managers of Western lines seem very confident that au agreement will he reached to pool Western traffic, and be in operation in the early part of lVJl S. 13. Hover b.ns fieon appointed vicepresident and ceneral superintendent of the Chicago & Texas railway, with beadquarters at Bowie, Tex. The Toledo & Ohio Central is delivering to the Big Pour and other connecting lines from five hundred to six bnndred car-loads of coal a day from mines on its line. Train 20, on the Vandalia. in tho month of November averaged to handle 12 local and turned over to its connections here forty-two through passengers a day. The Ohio Falls car-works are running to their fullest caDac.tr. On Dec. 1 the works had contracts for building 3.203 freight cars and forty-two passenger coaohes. H. A. Fisher, of St. Louis, ex-general manager of the Old BlnfFline, has been appointed vice-president and general manager of the Louisiana, Arkansas & Missonri railway. Since the first of the month the Wabash has received from the Knode Island locomotive-works three more heavy passenger engines, which are being set up at the Fort Wayne shops of the company. The Baltimore & Ohio is to spend $100,000 in improvements at Youngstowu. O., which

win enauia tne road to IA n. much mnr im. POrtant competitor of th IVnrmvl vanin. and the Lake Shore at that point than heretofore. In the month of November the Pennsyl vania lines took from the Indianapolis tockrards 702 car-loads nf lirw stnrlr for Eastern markets, which was fifty-four carloads in excess of the number shinned in November. 1S0L The encine which went into Kinder creek, on the Wabash road, a few months ago. killing five of the employes and olticialson the road, has been rebuilt and comes out with a new number, and will haul one of the fast express trains. The Wheeling & Lake Erie has decided to remove its headquarters to Massiilon, regardless of consequences. If it removes its shops there the citizens of Norwalk say AS - If). AS . . . tney win asg tne company to return a cash bonus of $33,000, given some years ago. A special train on the Wabash, carrying a theatrical troupe last week, averaged eighty miles an hour for a considerable distance, but the passenger department says that such speed is so common on the Wabash that they never think of mentioning it. For the first time in the history of Western railroads west-bound shipments have for a considerable period been in excess of east bound. Kailroad officials say this is because the West is full of money and is buying freely, being an evidence of unusual prosperity. H. B. Chamberlain, general manager of the Erie fast-froight lines, spent yesterday in the city in conference with the several representatives in this territory. He says that never before in its history have the a flairs of the Erie been in more promising condition than now. A. W. Street, general manager of the Hoosao Tunnel fast-freight line, is in the city for a conference with W. H. Parmelee, who represents the line in this territory. Under Mr. Street's management the line has reached a more important position than at any time since its organization. It is stated that the new management of the Evansville & Terre Haute will adopt the policy of the Chicago fc Eastern Illinois, that of running first-class passenger equipment and trains at hours which will accommodate its patrons, and the property generally is to be pat in the best physical condition. C K. Stone, general passenger agent, and L. R. Brockenbrongn. general freight agent of the Chicago &. Eastern Illinois, returned on Tuesday from An extended Southern trip in the interests of that road. Both are said to be on good terms with the parties who are getting into control of this and the EvaosvilJe & Terre Haute. What were known as the Mackey lines are maKing a lavoraoie exhibit ef earnings for N ovember. -The Evansville Terre Haute earned $l(2,2-:o. an iucrease over November, l&M. of 87.157; tho Louisville.

The train reaches Indianapolis at 10:45 a. m. and St, Louis in season for supper, and insures connections with all trains from St, Louis west. It Is stated that Cel. George F. Evans, who left th T.nntavillM Kvan.vUl. v Louis to accept a position onhe Boston fe M sine, could have tha general managership of the L., E. fc St, L. road if he chooses to accept it, The report may be true, but the Journal has good authoritv for stating that, ou Jan. 1. E. O. Hopnins wm Decorue vice-president and general manager of the Lonisvillo. Evansville & fct, Louis road, of which Mr. Mackey still retains the presidency. W. H. Markland. of Altoona. chief electrician of the Pennsylvania lines east of Pittsburg, expresses the belief that the rennsyivama will eventually light its main lines by electricity. He says most of the Pennsylvania yards are lighted in that manner, and the results are highly satisxaciory, tne saving in the non-wrecking of cars being sufficient to pay the cost of such improvement. Another consideration, and in xact tne most important, cays Mr. Markland. is the saving of human life and limb, for with such good light tho liability io acciuenis is greatly lessenea. A sub-committee of the freight department of the Chicago and Ohio liiverTrafflo Association were in conference yesterday at the Bates Homo, nrenarincr r Am mm nitra tions as regards rates to be acted on at the meeting of the freight men to-day. There were present at the meeting C. E. Fulton, commissioner: j. ij. inn, of the Pennsylva nia lines: it. m. Arnold, or the Monon: A. H. McLeod. of the C, II. & D.; Ford Wood, of the Dig Four; H. B.

Joe Howard. Extreme measures never work cood results. That immigration is a curee, as it has been managed during the past few years, all native-born and all sensible for-eitru-horn citizens recognize. The radical difference between men who are bom in this country and those who coino to this country, taken in large groups, is that, while the native American cares bnt little for otlice. the naturalized citizen jumps for it as dogs jump for bones.

OBSTREPEROUS IN COURT 1

Attorney Everett Talks Rack to the Judge and to Another Lawyer. Another Phase of the Fredericls Case-G rani Jury and Policy Shops Street Assessment baits. There was a stormy time In Room 3, Su perior Court, yesterday afternoon, when attorney H. J. Everett came in and ob jected to the suitof bamanthaC. Fredericks against John W. Fredericks, for support. being set down for trial on Saturday morn ing. 31 r. Everett claimed tnat it was not time enough in which to prepare pleadings, but was informed by Judge Bartholomew that in such cases no pleadings were neces sary. William P. Herod, who is attorney for Mr. Fredericks, happened to be in the court-room when Everett came in and the latter was somewhat surprised m at bis presence and very broadly insinuat ed that be was trying to iuiluei.ee the Judge. Judge Bartholomew very promptly. but politely, resented the insinuation against bis integrity and said neither Mr. lierod nor anvone else had spoKen to mm about the case and that be would not per mit such a thing to be done. Mr. Everett continued bis remarks, which were wholly oat of the record, and kept up a continual abuse of Mr. Herod, accusing him of unpro fessional conduct. 3lr. lierod interrupted him when Everett turned sharply upon him and very curtly said: "Mr. Herod will you shut up! ' M.No." replied Mr. Herod. 'Well, you will, if I have to knock yon down to make you do so." llefore Mr. Herod cuid reply Judge Bartholomew rebuked Everett in severe terms, and told him very emphatically that the court would not permit any euch language or conduct in its presence, after which Everett in a degree subsided, but expressed his intention of tiling an affida vit for a change f venue from the judge if theconrt would waive the rule requiring such allidavits to be tiled live days before the trial. The court waived the rule and Mr. Everett left the room, after civ in z notice that he would file tho affidavit this morning. The Fredericks case has becomo famous in this county, and nearly -every court in the county has had the troubles of the family aired in its chambers in some form of action.

It is probable that a settlement of the questions at issue between the Big Four company and its telegraphers will be reached this morning. The work on the wage scale was finished at yesterday's con ferences. Superintendent Peck sent his last revision to the operators last eening. and the advances madeproved satisfactory. The only question which is now at issue is that of unionism. It is understood that the operators have demanded of the com pany that in the future none but uuion men be employed. This the company is disin clined to accede to. While it reeogmxes unions and their committees, ittdoes not beliove in discriminating with them. It is not likely that any serious trouble will prow out of theditierences, nowerer. ABOUT TIIE BANQUET BOARD Masons of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Ilite Enjoy a Spread.
