Plan Is on to Organize the Farmers of Wayne County to Control Wheat. EQUITY SOCIETY BRANCH. A WELL KNOWN FARMER IS BACK OF THE MOVEMENT AND IT IS SAID IS MEETING WITH MUCH FAVOR. Should the plans of a certain well known Wayne county farmer material ize, a branch of the American Society of Equity will be organized In Wayne county, and the tillers of the soil will after the coming harvest, hold all the wheat grown on Wayne county farms in hopes of getting $1.m per bushel for the grain. The farmer, who for various reasons does not want his name used In connection with the matter, stated to the Palladium that everything is propitious for such a move by the farmers pf the county and state, lie said that the quotations on wheat are already soaring skyward at the present time, the crop will be short, and by holding the grain, he states that there "Is nothing under the sun' that can prevent the wheat quotations going to the coveted $1 figure.. According to his statement there is comparatively little grain in the storing bins of the farmers of Wayne county at the present time and with a strong demand for Wayne county wheat, the majority of it being held back, the farmers would undoubtedly be successful. He also stated that several farmers in the southern part of the county were willing to pledge their crop to the society in. case it was organized in this city, and if all the farmers, or at least the majority of them would go into the society, it 13 said between .KiO.Ooo and 500,000 bushels of Wayne county grain could be held from the market. The idea would never be considered an instant, the farmer said, if wheat was not so scarce at the present time and demanding the high figure that it is. The farmer in question, it is said, is going about the county endeavoring to stir up interest in the formation of a .wheat pool, and it is said that farmers in the western and" norther portions of Wayne county are hearing him with interest. Just when a meeting will be called to decide the matter is not known. GOING TO CORNELL UNIVERSITY. Miss Emma Kendall, north of Richmond, will leave for Cornell University next week.

PORTER CONDUCTS EXAM. CONDUCTORS, BRAKEMEN, FIREMEN AND ENGINEERS TAKE IT Tests Were Held in a Box Car Near The Pennsylvania Station, Causing Much Amusement. Trainmaster Porter of the Richmond division, Pennsylvania lines, Wednesday afternoon gave twenty-five conductors, brakemen, firemen and engineers running on the local division, an examination in the train book rules. It is understood all of them passed the examination successfully. The place of holding the examination was the cause of much joking among local attaches, as it was an empty passenger coach near the Pennsylvania station. The examinations on the local division are now about completed. All trainmen are supposed to be conversant with the new Indiana state laws pertaining to conducting trains. OFFICES ARE CLOSED. All Richmond division offices are closed all day today, owing to it being a national holiday. Many of the local employes took advantage of the abbreviated vacation and are sunburnIng themselves along the banks of Wayne county creeks, angling for the elusive finny tribe. A large number of local office attaches also journeyed Cincinnatiward where they will sp'end the day. The station was packed with travelers, but the offices truly resembled the deserted village. IS RUNNING DAILY. The Northland limited has adopted its nightly schedule and is being liberally patronized. "There is no better train running through Richmond than the Northland limited," is the opinion expressed on all sides about the train. It is carrying an extra large number of passengers. Wednesday night one solid sleeper was hauled through this city from St. Louis bound for northern pleasure spots to spend their vacations. HANDLE MANY CARS. The Pennsylvania yard crews are now handling an exceptionally large number of cars loaded with farm machinery from the local manufacturing establishments. More freight of this nature is now being shipped out of Richmond than any other. The season for this however, will soon end and other lines of manufactured goods will be pushed out. All the factories are doing an exceptionally heavy business, measured from the number of cars being shipped out over the railroad lines. A NEW FOLDER. The Pennsylvania and Grand Rapids and Indiana have issued a newfolder describing the through service ou the Northland limited. A map of the connecting Hues to the G. R. &. I. is given with the time tables at all connecting poiuts. TRAINS VERY HEAVY. Freight trains running through Richmond at the present time over the Pennsylvania lines, are the heaviest in the history of the local road accord

FATHER FROM GALLOWS.

-?Pa -M Vi 1 V iff ' a. V" VP "1 ft - X y LOVING. ing to the statement of a local Pennsylvania attache Wednesday afternoon. The trains are so heavy and it takes so much to load the cars of Increased capacity, that some outsiders unacquainted with the situation think that the freight business has fallen off, but this is far from the case, being increased wonderfully in the past few months. A large per cent, of the freight cars now being used by the Pennsylvania railroad through this city average in capacity between 80,000 and 100,000 pounds. To name the articles being handled now would mean to name about every article in the classification of freight. Business is exceptionally good in the freight line and as this class of the railroad business is "what buys the baby shoes" local freight officials are more than pleased with the showing and particularly the showing of the Richmond division. GAINING IN FAVOR. The C, C. & L. Pullman service to Chicago, is gaining favor while the one dollar differential which the C, C. & L. will have in vogue so far as known, till August 1, looks still better to Chicago travelers. Wednesday night the C, C. & L. train from Cincinnati to Chicago through this city carried twenty-seven passengers, according to the statements of the local ticket agent.
