TO RELIEVE CONGESTION

'ACILITIE IOR II M)I.IC FREMillT TO HK DM HEASKD. lonfrrrarr of IVnn I vanla Rallvr a Official at 1'IIUlinri-l.argr Sum of Monrr to Br Spent. PITTSBl'RO. Pa.. Nov. 18. Prent nt A. J. Caaaatt. of the Pennsylvania Railroad, together with Second Vice President C. E. Puh, Third Vice Resident 8. M. Prevost an.. W. H. Brown, chief engineer of the company, are In Pittsburg wrestling with the freight congestion problem, which has seriously affected Pittsburg Industries for iodic time. President Cassatt called before him the division superintendents and others who could furnish data of any kind regarding the freight rongestlon In this district. Blue prints of all the Pennsylvania lines In the territory were studied In detail, and though much secrecy is maintained by all. It Is known that President Cassatt has been made aware- of the precise situation here. It is believed he will authorize any Improvement that in his opinion will aid In relieving the choked condition of the lines At the conclusion of the conference Mr. Pttcalrn said: "The conference was devot ed to the freight situation. Plans for relief of the congestion by the increase of facilities for handling business was considered. It remains now for the board to act upon the plans. The Pennsylvania means to spend a very large amount of money In carrying out this work." Relief for the freight congestion In the Pittsburg district, which is considered the key to the troubles east and west, is by this statement promised for as early carrying out as possible. The freight congestion here has been a fruitful source of trouble for industries of all kinds Iron and steel men. wholesalers, grocers, commission men, builders and others have made bitter complaints about delay of cars, loss of freights and other Ills. An offl( ial f the United States Steel Corporation said to-day: "The congestion is the worst In the history of the Pittsburg district. The conditions have been bad for a year and growing worse monthly. Within the last we-k matters have grown worse daily." Numerous other Industrial con- ( ris report like conditions. There is a possibility that th Homestead and Duquesne works of the Carnasjss Steel Company, employing about twelve thousand men. may be forced Into Idleness because of Inability to secure sufficient pig Iron for their operation. These works consume muih of the outsid mjpply of pig Iron purchased from merchant furnace men. Most of thes- Individual stacks are closed lown ntlrely or working at about 60 per cent, of their normal output. Complete suspension is not Imminent, but important departments may close down and cripple operations at any time. WOMAN KILLS A WOMAN. Music Teacher Stabbed to Death In Her Father's House.

British Minister Thinks There la No Need of H ee i p roe i f . HAVANA, Nov. .-Lionel Carden. the Hrltlsh minister, in a report or. the situation In Cuba, says none of the evils so confidently predicted by the advocates of reciprocity has come to pass. No sugar estate of any importance was compelled to stop, and tho recent crisis, far from belnff disastrous to the island's prosperity, has really been of immediate s rvice to Cuba in teaching the planters to be economical in the management of their plantations, thus lowering the cost of production until it is thought that plantation expenses will not exceed 1 cent, per pound. I'nder the pres. ent conditions, the minister adds, Cuba has little to fear from competition of oih r countries in the production of sugar, whether cane or beet.

CHAFFEE AND WHEATOIN

"As a soldier who has served many years I know how honors stich as those that have been bestowed upon me come. They come to individuals, as they have come to me, through the loyal devotion and service of other officers and soldiers that great mass of men who compose the army of the Cnlted States. They have helped me to my honors and they helped my loyal friend Wheaton to his honor, and no man is more free to acknowledge it than that prince of soldiers." With this tribute to the American soldier, Major General Chaffee fitted a climax to a touching demonstration of the comradeship of barrack and camp life to-night at a banquet at the Cnlon League Club. The hero of B Caney and Gen. Lloyd Wheaton. conqueror of the Moros, had met for the first time since they parted In the jungles of Luzon and, unabashed by the presence of the 450 guests, they had shown the warmth of a soldier's greeting. General Wlnaton had been Invited to sit with the guest of honor at the speakers" table, but modesty made him late. General ( haffee saw him lirst as he threaded his way among the tables. He arose, and, reaching across the table, beckoned him to approach. General Wheaton made his way around the board and General Chaffee fell upon his neck without further ceremony. He threw Ids arm over the other's shoulder and hugged him, while General Wheaton blushed modestly through his beard and dropped his head to hide the tears that coursed down his cheeks. What they said was drowned by the cheers and salvos of the guests, and then General Whaton sat down within sight of his former commanding officer. In his speech General Chaffee ref rred often to tie- loyalty of his form, r subordinate, giving him his share in the honors and each time General Wheaton hid his bronaad face behind his hand and wiped away furtive tears.

The Harvard athletic authorities to-night disclaimed all knowledge of a protest against Glass, the big guard of the Yale football team.

Football at Harvard assumed a much better aspect to-day. All of the men were out and in the best of condition for the practice, which consisted of light preliminary work for both the first and second teams, in going through signals and practicing formations. There was team work on the part of the 'varsity, which has been lacking this season, for the runners were pushed and pulled by every one. The whole "varsity team, with the exception of Putnam, was played through the entire practice period. Shea and Andy Marshall were the most effective and ripped up the second team's line without a great deal of effort. Although King is not allowed to play on either the first or second team, still he continues to come out and coach. Green is devoting all his time to the center men. Force remained at center on the 'varsity all the time to-day, and the freshman, Carrick. displaced Sugden for the whole practice on the second team. It is very probable that a part of the practice, at least, to-morrow will be open. 0 "DUO" DE AX WILL. PLAY. M. T. II. S. Uns A&rreetl to Allow Him to Help ft, 11. S. The question of al! ?

GRKENCASTLE. Ind., Nov. 18. With the hardest game the Notre Dame of the season before It, De Pauw has gone Into a slump along football lines, and the result probably will be fatal to the outcome of that contest. The game will finish the season for the present football team. The men have lost interest in their work and cannot be made to put the necessary ginger into their playing. Even though the team may end this season with a poor game, the showing it has made before this, this year, gives evidence of good work next season. The line will remain practically intact and the best of the substitute backs will he here again. The team will lose heavily in the absence of Captain Pearson, who has been playing tackle, and Brown fullback. End Con lay will be gone, with Halfback Hawthorne, Halfback Davidson and Halfback McKlnstray. For these places there are already on the list Mahoney, Potorff and Watson, all of them almost good enough for the team this year. otre Dame Expects to Win. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SOUTH BEND, Ind., Nov. 18.-Notre Dame has settled down to the task of preparation for scalping De Pauw this week and is confident that there will be little difficulty in winning the second game for the State championship. Saturday's contest with the physicians and surgeons proved conclusively that the 'varsity can play a strong offensive game when called upon. His Liver Infected rvlth Germs. ANN ARBOR. Mich.. Nov. 18.

The trouble between the American Association and the Western League is still unsettled, although for the past three days the arbitration committee of the National Association of Baseball Leagues has put forth every effort to bring about a peaceable adjustment. Nothing definite resulted from to-day's conference, and an adjournment was taken until to-morrow, when another effort will bo made to bring the warring leagues together.

Ltvernash. the Union Labor candidate from San Francisco. He is an incident of yellow Journalism as it exists on the Pacific coast. He was in Washington all last winter in the dual capacity of "special commissioner'' for one of William R. Hearst's papers, and worked in th lobbies for a new and radical Chinese exclusion law. To his credit be it said, he filled both positions with no little ability. His work for the exclusion bill consisted in pesternlg the very life out of Republican senators and repreaentaiivts, and making existence

Between Livernash pulling wires for exclusion and Minister Wu protesting against the Insult to his race, the leader had mora trouble than a cat walking on tly-paper. Livernash's picture ought to be framed in ;i crescent; he works while everybody else sleeps. Hut he works, too. while they are awake, he is a marked man in appearance, small In stature, with a thin, sallow countenance snd attenuated form; his nose is very sharp, and supports heavy rimmed spectacles balanced far out toward its end. He always counts ten before He speaks, after he has begun, he goes on and on like a Puritan preacher, and all the forces of the underworld cannot stop him. It was as a "freak artist" In Journalism, however, that he gained fame. His specialty was the invention of wild things for a wild newspaper to do. He would sit all day in a big bare room and think; and what his mind brought forth would make a stone image turn somersaults. Not the least remarkable feature of his career was the style of attack of which his enemies made him a target during the late campaign. One of their tricks was to reprint unflattering articles about him which had appeared before he became a member of Its staff. In the paper for which he was then working. Then they went into the byways and hedges, and raked out and published broadcast all the disagreeable "stories they could attach his name to. Many of these were literature of the hair-raising sort. To show how little w.- of the Hast realise what a Pacific coast campaign of personalities Is like, it may be mentioned that one of the broadsides of the opposition accused Llvernash of being Insane, and went on to describe hie remarkable doings while in that condition. It told of his trial for the attempted killing, by poisoned wine and by shooting, of a man named Efhrldge; of the defensa that IJvernash was the victim of a sort of "sleep-walking" condition; of his being put under the influence of a hypnotic expert in court, having needles stuck into him without flinching, and telling all about aa imaginary plot against his life at the suggestion of the hypnotist. Other tales described him as masquerading in female attire, and being arrested while carrying a gripsack filled with chloroform, prusslo acid. etc. Still another told how Livernash was assigned to write up. for his paper, the story of John Doe's suicide, and now he improved the occasion to accuse a rival yellow Journal of having contracted with Doe to pay a hundred dollars to his widow for an exclusive story of the act of self-destruction, written by Doe himself Juet before firing the fstal bullet. On one occasion, it is said. Livernash waa sent to "cover" a lynching and barely escaped becoming a victim himself, the timely Intervention of his managing editor being all that saved him. In spite ol this line of attack. Livernash pulled through by a safe majority. The Pacific coaM has a taste for life stories abounding in dramatic action; and in Livernash s case it got just what It liked and plenty of it. His predecessor In Congress and competitor at the polls was Julius Kahn, the ex-actor. A matter of 214 vote has simply Jumped the genius of melodrama across the footlights. WAÜE9 M RAILROADS. As Transportation Costa Less Labor Has Mcndlly Profited. Leslie's Weekly. Wages have always been low in those parts of the country far ahead of or removed from railroad facilities, and to-day the lowest wages found in the United States are in those States which have the poorest railroad facilities. Whenever tha the railroads come into a new community wages are almost Immediately doubled. Tha following table, showing the moat of transportation per ton per mile for each decade of the last fifty years and the averaga wages of American labor at the same time, shows what the increase of our transportation facilities and the reduction of our railroad rates have done for American labor: Cost of tranaporta- Wages tion per tonYear. 150 ... 10 ... 1K70 ...

In an almost constant proportion. In the last fifty v.ars our railroad mileage has grown from a few thousand miles of scsttered and disconnected llnka into a great railroad !-t.rn of over two hundred thousand milea, every mile of which Is in connection with evt-ry other mile, equalising Isbor conditions and leveling prices throughout tha whole country, preventing either local famine or local wsste of surpluses. This and the reduction during the same period of our railroad rates from 34 cents per ton per mile to 6. milla. or less than one-fifth what they were fifty years sgo. has enabled ua to accomplish the greatest miracle that the world has ever seen. During those fifty years our population has grown from twenty-three millions to over seventy-f-ix millions, and over eighteen million foreigners have immigrated to our shores. Yet in the face of this great supp.v of labor, and most of It extremely cheap labor, that has poured In upon us. we have Seen enabled to. develop our lnduatrles and create such a demand for labor that we have more than doubled our own averaga wagea and at the same time delivered our finished products In Europe so cheaply that that continent, even after shipping lta surplus supply of labor to vj, has been unable to bring about any material increase la Us owu wages.
