PASSES FOR TRAFFIC MEN

somi; or tiii: wiistiirn hailhoads MIX II TIIi:I OUT AS USUAL. Pooling of I.ocoinotlvra on tlir Snnla Fe l'otiiitl Atl vantnKeou Hallway Clerkit OrKaniziiiK. Traffic men In the Trunk line and Central Traffic Asoeiation territory are receiving annual passes, much to their surprise. The passes are sent individually as personal favors without the formality of going through the offices of the president or general manager, as has been the case heretofore. The pa?.-e are accompanied by a note which states that the issuing of passes by their respective lines is offered as personal favors to the indivduals. The Cleveland Leader says: "One of the severest blows to the anti-pass agreement came to light yesterday. A traveling freight representative who has just completed a tour over an extensive territory makes the statement that he found the local freight agent3 working under a general understanding tnat all freight which has no routing specified upon It shall be routed over the line which is unfriendly to the pass agreement. It is an acknowledged fact that a great bulk of the freight Is sent into the freight houses with no routing-specified upon it. The routing of thi3 freight all falls to the local agent, giving him a certain amount of power which it Is of Interest to any line to have in its favor. The freight agents at the smaller stations have taken it upon themselves to break the pass agreement by swinging this freight along lines that will persuade the pass abolishers that they are losing traffic by their stand. They consider this one of the strongest possible arguments against pass abolition. "A peculiar angle in the pass situation developed yesterday when the roads that subscribe to the agreement sent out the information that all employes of any road may obtain a half rate from any other road if asked for through the general passenger agent of their own line and if traveling at their own expense. If an employe of any line wishes to travel on any other line in the interest of the road with which he is connected, he must pay full fare. This considered a peculiar angle." The Santa Fe Pooling System. On July 1. 1S9S, the present pooling system of locomotives was Inaugurated on the Santa Fe. The system was first put into service on the Chicago divsion of the road, and is now used throughout the entire Santa Fe system. The question of whether or not the pool system is a success, all things considered. Is one that can stand much arguing pro and con, and opinions are expressed in favor of and against It. Master Mechanic Grandee says the pool system is a success in that the business of the roads could not be handled by the former system with the limited number of engines. Locomotives in the pool will last on an average about three years before a complete overhauling is necessary. When an engineer reaches a station now he is done with the engine, and if a half dozen bolts ar broken or as miny leaks hindering the power, it is all the same with him. The enginemen say there are now at all times a large number of "dead" engines in all the shops, and that as each crew has its own pet engine the death rate would be so diminished thaf it would make up for the extra work obtained by running a line engine continually. As a rule the engineers would prefer to have their own engine. Personal, Loral nml General Notes. J. M. Kelley yesterday succeeded J. D. Fidler as agent of the Toledo, St. Louis & Western at East St. Louis. James L. Head has tendered his resignation as claim agent of the Wabash's eastern division, and goes into mercantile business. Pullman porters have completed their organization, which will be known as the "Colored Men's Hallway Mercantile League." The Philadelphia & Reading has purchased a large tract of land in Philadelphia and will expend a large sum in improving its terminals. Train 5 on the Panhandle west, between Pittsburg and Columbus, is run in two sections, and much of the time consists of nineteen cars. The Erie announces that It will grant half rates to its employes and their families when application is made through the proper channels. The Erie has closed u deal for an extensive tract of land in New York city, covering two entire blocks, the ground to be utilized as a freight yard. The Pennsylvania Company has a new position, that of assistant to First Vice President James McCrea, and S. C. Scott has been appointed to the place. James Corbet t yesterday succeeded the late G. A. Coe as superintendent of the Susquehanna division of the Erie. Mr. Corbett has been assistant superintendent. The New York, New Haven & Hartford will organize an insurance department, and has selected John A. Orr, of Bridgeport, as examiner, with headquarters at New Haven. A special train on the mew York Central ran from Syracuse to Rochester, eighty-one miles, in seventy-four minutes, and from Syracuse to Uuffalo, IVJ miles, In 133 minutes. It is stated that J. C. Woodworth, traffic manager of the Pacific Coast company, will be made assistant to Traffic Director Darius Miller, of the Chicago, Burlington & Qulncy. Passenger rates between all points in South Dakota have been reduced from 4 to 3 cents per mile. This will make a reduction in through rates from Chicago and intermediate points. Among the latest appointments on the New York Central are those of W. J. Hurley as traveling engineer and Joseph 15. Salas as traveling fireman. Both were promoted from engineers. E. K. Smith, ticket agent at Louisville, will, on Jan. 6, come to Indiananolls as ticket agent of the Big Four, and Samuel Hice will again take the position of city passenger agent at Indianapolis. It is reported that A. B. Starr, now assistant superintendent of the Pennsylvania lines west, will be appointed superintendent of transportation, vice E. B. Taylor, elected last week a vice president of the company. One of the most Important as well as delicate subjects the Trunk-line Committee ha3 left over for is the abolition of excess and second-das fares, and it promises to -be one of fruitful discussion and difficult to adjust. J. W. Sherwood, formerly superintendent of the Big Four, more recently holding the same position on the Toledo, St. Louis & Western, yesterday assumed the duties of general superintendent of the Detroit Southern road. John T. Irvine, central passenger agent of the Big Four at Cincinnati, retired yesterday to become secretary of the Merchants' and Manufacturers Association of LOST.

that city. On Monday evening the Big j Four passenger department gave him a dinner, j C. E. Schaff, general manager, and Wll- ;

urwii lank, ruuniuu'iiiitrui ni'iv, power of the Big Four lines, are going over the system this week, visiting the shops and planning for improvements the coming year. Yesterday much of the day was spent at Brightwood. California winter tourist travel is developing at such a rapid rate that the present facilities are proving inadequate. Eastern roads are waking up to the possibility that exists for increasing their business, and are making more than ordinary exertions to Increase travel in that direction. The report is revived by an Eastern financial paper that the ownership of the Evarisville or Terre Haute will change hands, and that there Is an understanding between the Chicago & Eastern Illinois and the Monon people that it is only a question of time when there will be an amalgamation. Passenger and freight agents who travel on the Pennsylvania lines have been notified to purchase mileage books for points east of Pittsburg, but to buy no books on Pennsylvania lines west until further notice. This Is taken as an indication that the anti-pass agreement will not be carried out on the Pennsylvania lines west. The directors of the Panhandle have set aside JGoO.mx) to be expended in increasing the size uf the shops at Columbus, G. The machine department will be enlarged, a new boiler shop built and supplied with the latest approved machinery; also a new roundhouse and a new power station. The machinery will be run by electricity. Regarding the report that the Pennsylvan.a will Increase wages of its employes J. B. Hutchinson, general manager of the lines east, says such an advance will be made on some divisions among the trainmen with a view of equalizing as far as possible wages for men in the train service, but the details have not been perfected. There has been some surprise expressed that a man of Mr. Leeds's wealth would care to undertake the work of operating a big railroad like the Chicago & Rock Island. It often happens, however, that a man desires to run an affair of his own that he is largely interested in, and Mr. Leeds, with his brother-in-law, owns a majority or the stock, and both are deeply interested in the road's prosperity. Superintendent J. B. Barnes, of the Wabash, arrived in Fort Wayne yesterday to assume the duties of master mechanic un til such time as he sees fit to appoint a successor to George S. McKee. who resigned to take an Important position with the Mobile & Ohio, ihe Wabash road, it Is announced at Fort Wayne, will soon start an aggressive tight against the new interurban line to Huntington. F. P. Scraper, of Topeka, has invented a device to prevent collision of railway trains, which he has confidence will be adopted by every railway in the country which does not use the double-track system. During the past week he sent a working model of his invention to Washington, and has been granted letters patent on it. It is a method of blocking trains by torpedoes, which works automatically. Mr. Scraper calls his Invention the noncolllsion safety patent. It is stated the most enthusiastic supporters of the per diem theory for the use of cars are to be found among the officials of the Illinois Central, and In this connection it Is interesting to note that the dally average freight-car performance during the last year on the Illinois Central was thirty-one miles per day and eighteen miles on foreign lines. The general average for all the lines of the country was about twenty miles on home lines and about twelve miles for cars running on foreign lines. On Dec. 31 James Means ended his long connection with the Panhandle, and the directors and officers of the company placed on record their high appreciation of his service. Mr. Means entered the service of the Steubenville & Indiana In the autumn of 1S54. and his long and active service has been marked at all times by fidelity, ability and zeal. He retires on a pension and will make his home with his daughter, Mrs. R. J. Beatty, of Washington, Penn. Concerning the published statement to the effect that the Lake Shore is about to establish a St. Louis service out of Toledo via the Vandalia, to compete with the Wabash in retaliation against the latter for its entrance into the Chicago field. Vice President and General Manager Brown, of the Lake Shore, said yesterday: "There is absolutely no truth in the report. "W hie we may at some future time Inaugurate a St. Louis service via Butler and the Vandalia. the matter, up to date, has not even been discussed." BRAVE YOUNG VENVILLE. Story of the American Hero "Whose Lonely Grave Wasj Lntely Found. Last Sunday the Journal's Washington dispatches told of the complimentary letter written by Secretary Long, of the navy, to the secretary of the war, commendatory of the zeal and perseverance of Capt. G. A. Detchemendy, Lieut. Parker Hitt and the men under their command in prosecuting a search for the remains of D. G. A. Venvllle, a naval apprentice who was murdered by Filipinos at Baler, P. I., when Lieutenant Gillmore and his party were captured. The pathetic story of young Venville's bravery in the fight Just previous to his capture is related in a recent Issue of the Youth's Companion by a writer who was evidently unaware that the body had been recovered. The article says: At Sellwood. near Portland, Ore., there was recently unveiled a monument to Arthur Venvllle, a lad who lies in an unknown grave in the Philippine islands. Venville was born in England, but was brought to this country at the age of ten months. When he was only seven years old his father died, charging the child with his last breath, almost, "to take care of the mother and sisters." The little fellow promised. He was a quiet boy, of studious habits. He liked o go to school and he wanted to go to eolkge, but he had to take a place in a shop to help support the family. In 1S97 his health began to fail and he enlisted as an apprentice in the navy, still giving his people wages. The other fellows called him a "girl sailor," he told his mother when he came home on a furlough a year later. Venville was on the gunboat Yorktown In 1SW. She went to the Philippines and in April was sent to Baler bay to rescue some Spanish prisoners. I he young apprentice was one of the party of seventeen which, under command of Lieutenant Gillmore, was sent ashore to reconnoiter. As the crowded launch approached the silent shore there suddenly burst upon It a storm of bullets. Several men were killed, others were desperately wounded, and all were drenched with the blood of their comrades. Lieutenant Gillmore has since told in McClure's Magazine of the behavior of Venville. the eighteen-year-old apprentice, who had never before been under fire. "Having no other weapon than a revolver, useless at the range," wrote the officer. "I reached for the rille dropped by one of the dead. It had been hit in the lock and the clip was jammed in. Venville, one of the apprentice boys, attempted to fix it. A bullet went through the llesh of his neck. " 'Mr. Gillmore. I'm hit,' he said. But he continued working at the rifle. "A second shot plowed through the boy's breast and came out in his armpit. " 'I'm hit again, Mr. Gillmore.' "He was still trying to pull out the jammed clip when a ball cut a furrow In the left side of his head. . " 'Mr. Gillmore. they've hit me again!' "He wiped the blood from his brown eyes with his coat sleeve and then returned to his task as calmly as If It were only a mosquito niat had stung him. It was not three minutes until a b ill crashed Into his ankle, Inflicting a painful hurt. There was just a slight quiver In the lad's voice as he looked up to me and said: " 'Mr. Gillmore. I'm hit once more, but I've fixed the gun. sir. " One wishes this true tale night have ended, as stories do, with the hero's recovery and return; but when the other survivors of Lieutenant Glllm.re's party were taken into the Interior Venville. being unable to travel, was left behind and some time later he was killed by the order of an insurgent general. Yet his eighteen years, few though they were, had been spent to some purpose. The monument stands a fair and stately symbol of the boy's life. DIED IN A SALOON. Denth Overtake Thnmns OTonnell,, of the Poor Farm. Suddenly. Thomas O'Conntll. seventy-three years of age, who has been at the poor farm since lM'ti. left the farm yesterday morning to go to church. After attending services at Haughville he went to Loerkamp's saloon, at S312 West Tenth strtet, and while standing at the bar talking in a jovial way fell ovtr and died In about live minute?. Heart dl.-ense was said to have Ixen the cause. He has a daughter living on StlliwcII ßtrtet.

BIG ISSUE OF BONDS

MOIlTGAGi: FOR, $750,(K5 OX MANTIXSVILLE ELECTRIC LIXIL Two Local Trust Companies as Trustees Fine Construction on the Itond Concrete Substructure. An issue of $750,000 in bonds of the In dianapolis & Martinsville electric line was secured yesterday by the execution of a mortgage, In which the Union Trust Company and Security Trust Company, of this city, were named as trustees, and to-day the mortgage will be filed in Morgan, Marlon and Hendricks counties, the three counties which the road crosses. Charles Finley Smith is the president of the In dianapolis & Martinsville Rapid Transit Company, and Emmet M. Smith is its secretary and treasurer. The bends secured by the mortgage are thirty-year 5 per cent, gold bonds, with principal and interest payable at the office of the Security Trust Company. The Union Trust Company is made registrar of transfers. The mortgage covers nearly twenty-five printed book pages and is very complete. The Indianapolis and Martinsville road was the first electric railway in Indiana to be financed entirely by Indiana capital, those associated with Mr. Smith in his enterprise being Hoosiers. The road was financed early in the autumn, Mr. Smith having the largest interest, and work is progressing on the line during th6 winter. The road is graded as far as Mooresville, and ties and rails for this section of the line are. on the ground. Between Indianapolis and Mooresville are nine steel bridges, all of which are of the best type of construction, with concrete piers and abutments. There is no wooden piling of any kind on the line. First-class standard ties are used and seventy-pound rails. Instead of going up and down hill, the road is so graded that there is no grade greater than Hi per cent, and no curve greater than lu degrees, the largest curve being at Mooresville, where the road crosses the 1. Ac V. and runs up into the town of Mooresville. This side of Mooresville a mill has been moved back a number of feet in order to save the road from making a detour, and the company bought a number of town lots in Mooresville In order to save making a sharp curve. The track has been laid from the Belt Railroad and Kentucky avenue to Eagle creek, the construction company operating from a switch in the Indiana Car Foundry Company's yard. The line is on the company's own private right of way all the distance to Martinsville, except where It goes over the streets of Mooresville and other cities. THE POWER HOUSE. The power house, which will be equipped with machinery to operate from sixty-five to seventy miles of track, is being built at the edge of a hill on the northern limit of Mooresville, close to Big White Lick creek, where there is plenty of water. A däep excavation has been made in the side of a hill of clay, and In this excavation will be the boiler room with a large storage capacity for coal, while the engines and generating machinery will be on top of the bluff. The excavated boiler room is surrounded by high concrete walls nine feet thick at the base, now built, together with foundations for machinery, and devices for running coal on tracks immediately ove the engine room, practically permitting the dumping of coal from the cars immediately Into automatic coal feeders, liiere will be three boilers of 300 horse power each of the Sterling water tube safety type, and the two engines, each of txio horse power Corless condensing heavy duty type, made by the Atlas engine works, of Indianapolis. They are direct connected to the two generators, each of 4o0 kllowats. The system will be of the three-phose alternating current, which is that used by the Union Traction Company. Many of the shorter interurban electric lines use the direct current, which limits the capacity to probably thirty miles, but the Indianapolis & Martinsville Company believes it will be more economical to Install an equipment to furnish power for a larger system. The motor power on each car will be 2oo horse power. The double trolley wire will be used throughout the line. The company will use its own bridges throughout the entire line. The largest bridge is over White river, near Martinsville, which Is three spans of 150 feet each, with two abutments and two piers. The line will go directly to the heart o? Martinsville, and a carhouse and station probably will be built there. The line passes the door of Bethany Park, and it is anticipated that the traffic to this park during the summer, as well as the traffic to Martinsville on account of the mineral water resort features, will be very large. The Indianapolis & Vincennes Railroad now runs seven trains a day out of Indianapolis to Martinsville, and four of these trains go no further than Martinsville. Barring any delays from extraordinary weather or other unavoidable causes, the road Is expected to be in operation before the first of May. COUNTY TAX DUPLICATES.

F. W. SAMUELS'S STATEMENT. Says He Gave General Harrison First Xevrs of Ills Victory. F. W. Samuels, local manager of the Postal Telegraph Company, In discussing a recent article In the Journal describing the scenes which took place in the old law offices of Harrison, Elam & Miller, when General Harrison received the news of his rominatlon to the presidency, tells how the news of the success of the general was received here. "The Postal Telegraph Company." said Mr. Samuels, "had a direct wire to the convention hall. As fast as bulletins were received by us they were handed to Patrick Fanning, a lineman, who stood on a dry goods box and read them to the cheering crowds. Finally a message was handed me which read like this: 'Hurrah for Indiana; Mr. Harrison will be nominated on the next ballot.' "I hastened to the telephone and tried to get General Harrison's office. Howard Cale finally answered the phone, and 1 told him to keep connection until I could announce a decisive vote. When the vote on the final ballot came I asked Mr. Cale to request General Harrison to come to thj telephone, and I had the honor, I believe, of being the first to congratulate him." Mr. Samuels says that the facts as he gives them are history in the files of the Postal Company and that the local office is very proud of its feat in being the first to give General Harrison the tidings of victory. DAY AT RESCUE MISSION IT IS ESTI3IATED THAT ELEVEN IIUXDKED PEHSOXS WERE FED. Open House nt the Institution After noon and Evening At the Y. 31. C. A. Marion Club Reception. W. II. Wheeler, superintendent of the Rescue Mission, was a busy man yesterday and last night entertaining the friends of the institution who called. The time for receiving guests was announced to begin at 2 o'clock, but an hour previous to that time the small hall and library were packed with people. At 2 o'clock Mr. Wheeler, with the assistance of several women, began a general song service) to entertain those present. A chorus was selected from the young women present, and they crowded around the organist. This song service was continued for half an hour. In the meantime Mrv Wheeler was making his way through the crowd in search of a speaker. His eyo rested on Thomas Boyd, ex-state senator from Hamilton county. On Invitation Mr. Boyd stood upon a chair and gave a short talk on his personal knowledge of the Institution. While Mr. Boyd was speaking the doors of the anteroom were thrown open. Here were three long tables covered with white cloths. In a side room stood a number of women ready with platteis covered with eatables. The children who' attended the meeting were served first. A man stood at the open door and let the little ones in as soon as a vacant place was found at a table. The children were served with ham sandwiches, baked beans, coffee and cake. This menu was continued until the closing of the mission last night, when It was estimated by Mr. Wheeler that the institution had fed over l.loo men, women and children. After the speech of Mr. Boyd the speakers previously invited by Mr. Wheeler began to arrive. Judge Stubbs was among the early arrivals. On his entrance to the room he was given an ovation. After exchanging the greetings of the day the Judge was called upon for a talk. In his remarks the judge complimented Mr. Wheeler on the work he was doing. He said that he was among those of the city who were closely identified with the workings of the institution and knew the hardships experienced by Mr. Wheeler. Following Judge Stubbs the. Rev. M. L. Haines, who is a member of tha board of directors of the institution, spoke. He was followed by E. P. Brown, of Ram's Horn fame, R. B. Griffiths, Mr. and Mrs. William Green, Henry Schultz, the Rev. W. H. Kellogg, the Rev. Joshua Stansfield, William C. Daly and "Abe" McPeak. Mr. and Mrs. William Green told of their conversion at the mission seven years ago. ' Many of the stories told by volunteer speakers during the day were so full of pathos that in many instances they brought tears to the faces of auditors. Some of the speeches by the city pastors were so touching that wayward men and women walked to the front of the altar and asked the ministers to pray for them. The minister, at the end of his talk, would kneel on the floor In company with the penitent and the two would pray together. During the day seven new converts were added to the roll of membership. MAIIIOX CLIH RECEPTION'. Hundreds of Persons Entertained During: Afternoon and EveniiiK. The Marion Club kept open house yesterday afternoon and evening with the generous hospitality characteristic of the organization. From 2 o'clock until midnight the handsomely decorated rooms were crowded with members and friends who greeted each other with hearty clasps of the hand and wished "Happy New Year." The honors were performed by Judge James M. Leathers, chairman of the reception committee, and others in line with the judge were President John Kirkwood, Secretary Bert E. Uhl. L. G. Rothschild, Frank Noble, Harry Negley, Charles O. Roemler, John C. Ruckeishaus. Harvey B. Martin. William Alonzo Bogardus, Dr. Emerson Diuly, Thomas C. Whallon, Harry D. Tutewiler, Charles P. Benedict, Guy Rocks. John Bowies, Dr. R. W. Garstang and others. There was no programme provided, nor were any speeches made, but the members of the club and the visitors smoked good cigars, told stories and passed away the first few hours of the new year In pleasant fashion. Carnations were the favors of the club. As each. visitor entered the door he was presented with a carnation for his buttonhole. The rooms of the club were tastefully decorated with smilax and the national colors. Banks of palms were arranged In the corners, and Klausmann's orchestra, which furnished music day and evening, was partially concealed from view by a solid mass of greens. During the conversation of the day and the talk on general matters, considerable discussion was had as to who will be the choice of the members to succeed President John Kirkwood. William Bogardus was mentioned favorably on all sides, and it seems probable that he will be chosen at the annual election soon due. Mr. Bogardus Is one of the most enterprising workers for the club, and devotes a good share of his time to serving on Its hardest worked committees. He Is popular with the members generally, and probably will have little opposition. Xevv Year's nt the V. 31. C. A. The open house kept by the Y. M. C. A. yesterday was in the form of an athletic contest in the afternoon and an entertainment at night. During the afternoon there wtre basketball games. At night the gymnasium was well crowded with friends of the association. Several musical numbers were given by the association's orchestra. "Stanley." a worker in magic, proved entertaining in his work. J. Russt 11 Powell was present and delighted the audience with a number of coon songs. The entertainment closed with an exhibition of Indian-ciuh swinging by Fred Yeaton, a member of the association. (ireat Skl-III Entertains.
