PREDICT HEAVY TRAVEL
INDICATIONS THAT TOMIIST III SINESS AVII-L HE LARGE. Excellent Exhibit of the LonUville S: Nnshvlllc fienernl mid I'ernonnl Hallway News. The passengtr ofll elals of the leading railroads in Central Passenger Association territory, trunk line territory, and throughout New England are actively preparing for a lively campaign of California business, which they expect to surpass that of all previous seasons, and the outlook for Florida business la also particularly bright. The tourist season opens Nov. 1, and sharp competition is looked for. The Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe are expected to make a great fight for business to California. The Southern Pacific has heretofore had its own way, but the Santa Fe Is as well equipped this year as its big rival and will run Its trains over its own lines to the Pacific coast. It Is stated that the New England roads and the Central States roads will make a great feature of tourist travel this season and will have many tourist cars leaving Boston, New York, Buffalo, Philadelphia and other Eastern cities for Pacific coast points and for the South. Owing to the completion of the Seaboard Alr-llne through routes there will be three strong companies In the field this vrlnter for Southern tourist travel, all running solid trains and of the highest standard of equipment. The Illinois Central will cut quite a figure In the tourist travel. A Prosperous Southern Rond. The Louisville & Nashville's annual report makes an excellent showing, of which Its officials are very proud. The gross earnings were much larger than those of any previous year In the company's history, and are reported as $27.742.000, against J23.739.0CX In year ending June SO. 1899, which was the next best year In the last ten. During the year large amounts of income were put into permanent improvemenL yet the net earnings rose from $S,027.000 to $9.12c. ). In round numbers, gross earnings increased JI.GUO.OOO; operating expenses, $2.joo.OOo; net earnings. $1,100,000. The net divisible Income of 1900 Is $3.fil9.000, compared with $2,626.000 in 1S99. The average mileage operated was 3,007 miles. The Congestion Relieved. For six weeks past General Manager Dickinson, of the Union Pacific, has been eneaged constantly In getting the heavy trains through as near on time as possible and so active has he been that In railroad circles he Is alluded to as Trainmaster Dickinson. The unprecedented heavy travel and shipments of all classe? of freight are what caused the congestion all along the line west of North Platte. The new cut-offs are now practically In use and will help relieve the situation.. The Union Pacific people are congratulating themselves on the speed with which their construction has been pushed during the past summer, and say that in the early spring the new Sherman tunnel will be completed, when.they can make even belter time than now. I'rmonnl, Loral and General Notes. "With Its recent acquirements the Santa Fe Railroad Company is now operating1 7,715 miles of road. Albett P. Chapman will on Nov. 1 go to Chicago as city freight agent of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul. Officials of the Hocking Valley road will on Monday start on their tenth inspection annual trip. The inspection will occupy the greater part of four days. Since the price of steel rails at $26 per ton was announced, three of the big systems have ordered 400,000 tons of rails, none lighter than eighty pounds to the yard. C." F. Manderson, general solicitor for the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, who, with his wife, has been abroad for some months, cables that he will be home In time to vote. Freight traffic on the Panhandle has so Increased the last ten days that six heavy freight engines have been transferred to the Panhandle off of the C. & M. V. division.. On Nov. 1 the Pennsylvania lines west will renew the Insurance policies on all Its property, including rolling stock, buildings and all other possessions liable to bo destroyed by fire. The superintendent of the Ike Shore's Chicago division has Issued an order that there shall be no decoration of engine cabs. Trouble between an engineer and fireman led to its Issuance. The Northern Pacific's Western business is growing so fast that the company is making arrangements to improve on an extensive scale their terminals at Tacoma, Seattle and Everett. W. C. Arp. superintendent of motive power of the Vandalla, returned from Pittsburg yesterday, where he was In attendance at a meeting of the motive power department of the Pennsylvania lines. George Coppell. chairman of the board of directors of the Denver & Rio Grande, says there Is no truth In the report that the directory is dissatisfied with H. T. Jeffervs as president of the road and that he is to retire. With the consent of the Wisconsin Central to become a member of the Transcontinental Passenger Association the new organization will be launched on a career of usefulness under the leadership of a capable man. f E. Lw Bevington Is to be secretary of James Charlton, chairman of the Transcontinental Passenger Association. Mr. Bevington was for many years chief clerk in the general passenger office of the Chicago & Alton. The railway men In Columbus. O., assisted by the Young Men's Christian Association of that city, are going to organize anti-cigarette unions among the people. Willis Brown, of Chicago, will spend a week In that city to aid In the undertaking. The llttlo town of Emmons, In Freeborn county. Minnesota, has a population of 230, but does a business of about $11,000 annually, which goes to the Minneapolis & St. Louis Hallway, and has petitioned the railroad commissioners of Minnesota to order a depot built there. The directors of the Pennsylvania lines west hive decided to establish the pension fund on the lines west on Jan. 1. It will be Identical with the one east of Pittsburg, and will affect a considerable number of employes on the several western lines, including the Vandalla. M. K. Ingalls has proposed to the citizens of Rising Sun that, contingent on their t-ecuring the right of way, the Big Four Company will extend its line from Aurora to Rising Sun. Final action will be tak?:i at the November meeting of the Big Four directorate in New York. Among those in attendance on Wednesday evening at the annual meeting of the Big Four Mutual Insurance Association was M. Hanafin, who in 1S33 was appointed section foreman of the Sidney section, which position he held until quite recently, age requiring him to retire. A number of the most prominent railroads are getting ready to compete for the honors to be awarded by the P.in-Ameri-can exposition. Much energy and exiense are being devoted to the exhibits to be sent, and the expectations are that the display at the world's fair in 1S33 will be surpassed. Since Oct. 1 the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy has placed an order with the Baldwin locomotive works for thirty more new freight engines of the so-called "prairie" type. The type of engine will differ but little from the lst twenty received recently. The Chicago. Rock Islard Pacific has placed an order for twenty engines with the Brooks locomotive works. Henry Miller, who died at Chappaqua. N. Y.. in his eightieth year, on Monday, was the inventor of the Meam and air-brake, the patent having been Issued Jan. and all railroad brakes now in use are patented after his invention. The Idea came to Mr. Miller after the accident near Norwood. Conn.. In 1&4. and he was encouraged In getting his brake patented by William H. Seward. Horace Greeley and other public men. President Injalls. being called to New York, was not with the Big Four inspection
party yesterday which passed through Indianapolis about noon. General Manager Schaff was with the party, which consisted of J. D. Iayng. first vice president of the Big Four lines. E. T. Osbom, secretary, and C. F. Cox, treasurer. New York. Mr. Layng in conversation spoke of traffic with all Vanderbilt lines as being highly satisfactory and said the various interests were working harmoniously. On Monday next the annual inspection of the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton will be commenced, the officials leaving Toledo at 7 a. m. The Inspection party will consist of C. G. Waldo, general manager. General Superintendent Turner, all of the division superintendents. Chief Engineer Wilson, superintendents of bridges and buildings and the several supervisors. The inspection will occupy most of next week, the party reaching Indianapolis on Friday. The conservatism which has always characterized the Ixjulsville & Nashville's business conduct in the various departments, will, it Is thought, rule in the matter of maintaining the passenger organization. While it is true that Charles L. Stone, the new general passenger agent, comes from another road It is not thought probable that he will make many material changes. Mr. Stone has been general passenger agent of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois since 1SS1, and Is considered strong as a competitor and positive as a friend. The Russian government Is Investigating the method pursued in America for Improving the condition of railway employes, and the representatives of that government who attended the international convention of the Young Men's Christian Association, held in Philadelphia, this month, were instructed to thoroughly investigate railroad work in America. These delegates are now making a tour of the United States, and will to-day be In Kansas City, where they will be received by the Railroad Branch of the aoung Men's Christian Association. At prornineni railroad centers, shops, tracks, yards and terminals and hospitals are carefully inspected.

SAMPSON WILL NOT GO SOUTH.
He ?nlts Giving: Ilobion Permission to ty What the Latter Did. BOSTON, Oct. 23. Rear Admiral ' Sampson in reply to questions says he has received cn invitation to attend the Alabama state fair at Birmingham, but that it Is Impossible for him to accept. He says he has put himself In tno hands of Dr. Beyer, of the receiving ship Wabash, and he feels that his health would suffer greatly from a trip to Birmingham. He says he is gaining steadily. The rear admiral says regarding Lieutenant Hobson's speech, in which he praised the bravery and skill of Admiral Sampson and said he was dying of a broken heart: "When Hobson was here he asked me if he might say something to the people of his section about me. I said he might. I knew he would not say anything improper. Hobson is a tine fellow who performed his duty well and who nearly lost his life in doing so. He always served me faithfully, and I take an interest in him." THREATENED BY BOXERS FOREIGN DEVILS". IN SOUTHERN CHINA NOW IN DANGER. Proclamation Pasted at Llen-Chnu, on North nirer American Mission Property Imperiled HONG-KONG, Oct. 23. Advices from Llen-Chau. on North river, say that American mission property there Js threatened with destruction by Boxers, who have posted the following proclamation: "We organized to protect our country and our homes and we rely upon one another to support the order to drive out tho foreign devils. They are mad. Their folly rasses description. They arc the usurpers of our land. They disturb out borders. In all the provinces and prefectures chapels have been. .opened; and our people are deceived., Jipped .Open and disemboweled, while the foreigners grow fa on the revenues of China, insulting out officials and merchants and seizing our temples and palaces. "The Emperor is indulgent and permits this. Who can foretell the Intentions of the foreign devils. Day by day they act more outrageously. When we behold tho present condition of affairs our hearts sic bruised with grief. Therefore we have organized our strength to . destroy the devouring wolf throughout the empire." The Boxers took the American Presbyterian mission buildings, but have not destroyed them. Rebellion is spreading along East river and North river, in tho province of Kwang-SI. It is supposed to be aimed at the overthrow of theManchu dynasty, but the reports are so contradictory that It is next to impossible to form a lucid Impression. In Canton the Chinese officials are taking the Insurrection so lightly that foreigners believe It will be very difficult to suppress. Minister Conger's Instructions. WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-Minister Conger has been authorized by his government to begin negotiations at once with the Chinese envoys on the basis of the points in the German and French notes, upon which all of the powers are agreed. Upon these points where divergence of views has been found to exist the governments of the powers themselves will negotiate with a view to reaching a further understanding. It is understood that the ministerial representatives at Peking of the other powers have similar instructions, but whether they have or not Mr. Conger Is not to be restrained. THE POLITICAL GAME. One of Its Pawns Is the Guuner-Plio tographer of the St. Paul. "Tip." in New York Press. Politics is but a plaything when men aro nominated to bo beaten. In Brooklyn a negro has been pur up for Assembly in a district hopelessly against him simply because no white man wanted the humiliation of deteat settled upon his record. Of course you can at all times find candidates, but no good man is set up to be knocked down in these small offices. In the bigger game things may be different, as when liatt humiliated Tracy and drove him out of the firm of Tracy. Boardman & liatt. lr. a district where Warwhoop Lynn looks like a lead-pipe cinch our side has playfully put up an ex-gunner in the German navy, Charles Vogt. Vogt is a good-sounding name for a candidate provided he gets a majority of his namesakes, differently spelled. This candidate is known in his district as "Otto." He tended bar in .1 place where there were three Charleses, and in order to avoid confusion the proprietor dubbed him "Otto." "Otto" Is not a bad fellow. When the Cuban war broke "out he was among the first to enlist, and his assignment was to a gun on the St. Paul, under command of Captain Slgsboe, of Maine fame. In an evil hour he took a snap shot of a flying shell. Commodore S. Nicholson Kane. Lieutenant Commander Drlgs. Lieutenants Gillmore. Poyer. Young, Pattson, Dixon and Osborn and Surgeon Heneberger, most of whom are amateur eamerlsts, inquired if he knew aught of development, and. being answered in the affirmative, obtained Captain Sigsbee's consent to establish the German in a dark room in the hold. So, frou; being a man behind the. gun. "Otto" became by unanimous appointment of their excellencies photographer to the St. Paul. He developed all the plates and -films that were exposed during the'eruise of the converted liner. "Otto's" dark room was a little bit of hell. He had to work in his skin, clothe being unbearable in the awful torrldlty over the keel. lie returned to New York with a set of pictures that be hoped to sell for 11. Ox; at least. Those be bad printed for his superiors were worth more than their weight in gold. But he was disappointed. There was no demand. "Otto" got straitened and the lot went for $3.

On It Republicans Can Stand Wlthont Any 3Itsgivlnffs. Chicago Journal. When McKinley stands upon the record of his administration of national affairs for the last four years he stands In a position wholly unassailable. To prove as much, it is only necessary to glance back. The achievements of these four years, the conditions they have wrought on the welfare of the people, the monumental addition to our prestige abroad these things make argument there Is no resisting. Let us look for a moment at this brilliant rage of American history. The Republican platform on which McKinley was elected in 1S96 made four precise and specific pledges: First, to place the gold standard on a firm basis; second, to reform the damaging Wilson ta"T so as to protect American capital and labor; third, to reassert the Monroe doctrine In its full extent; fourth, to maintain a firm and dignified foreign policy with American control of the Hawaiian islands. The fidelity with which these pledges have been kept is the bulwark upon which the supporters of the administration build their confidence. First in financial importance must be reckoned the Dingley tariff; second, the reform in the currency; third, the war lean of 1S0S; fourth, the settlement of the Pacific Railroad indebtedness. The measure bearing the name of the late Mr. Dingley was passed by the House of Representatives March 31. 1S97, less than a month after the inauguration of the President. That has the appearance of reasonable promptitude. After tinkering by conference committees the bill became a law on July 21. No other tariff law was ever passed in so short a time. The Dingley law formed the basis of the prosperity of which tho Nation is now feeling the full effects The currency law placed on the statute book March H of the present year establishes the soundness of our money. It directs that all money issued by the United States hall be maintained at one standara of value, and such maintenance is made the duty of the secretary of the treasury. A reserve fund of $l30.000,0u0 in gold coin and bullion 13 set apart In the treasury for the redemption of United States notes and treasury notes of 1SS0, instead of $100,000,000. formerly recognized as the gold reserve. The most notable feature of the law is that which relates to the refunding of the national debt. The 5 per cents, of 1&04. the 4 per cents, of 1307, and the 3 per cents, of liW. the principal of which aggregates $SXU4Jf40O, v.-cre authorized to be refunded into 2 per cent, bonds, payable at the pleasure of the United States after thirty years from the date of their issue, and payable, principal and Interest, In gold coin of the present standard of value. The act contains a provision that the new 2 per cent, bund to be issued in exchange for the old threes, fours and fives shall not be issued at less than par. The exchange of these old high-rate interest bonds for 2 per cents. Is an achievement nver accomplished by any other nation. Under the refunding provision the treasury effected a net saving in Interest of KGS4.431 on bonds replaced between March 14 and May 4. It"). The rapidity with which the SpanishAmerican war loan was subscribed was a superb demonstration of the stability of the national credit, and showtel to governments abroad that American resources were nbnoluttly unlimited. In thirty-one days the subscriptions reached 1,4MKAXX nearly seven times the amount of bonds offered. If -money talks" that is sholiting. The administration secured a practical settlement of the sncient Pacific Kailroad debt, realizing, in cash or Its equivalent, the sum of $124.4:1, CToiO in less than two yearn, out of a total Indebtedness of 11."?.ton,noo It secured the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands.
