Poor old private-owned railroads rain handed a knock by the state t lilroad commission which again calls em public highways. Another candidate, the Rev. J. O. lampbell, has dropped into the pollcal cauldron of the Sixth district, he more the merrier. Stuyvesact Fish, one-time presint of the Illinois Central, has been ioking for trouble these many months d seems to have found plenty of it In Richmond It seems that the unpected always happens. Tuesday a an was fined for severely punishing other man whom he found invading Is home. Judging from the poor memories exibited by the officials of the Standard Ml company on the witness stand the tockholders of that company aro not ery exacting as to what kind of busi ness men shall run their company. Judge Landis granted immunity to ihe Alton railroad and cased his outaged feelings by declaring the ownrs and managers of that road were lot any better than some of the preset Inhabitants of our penitentiaries. John W. Kern, former democratic candidate for governor, whila visiting City Attorney Study, Monday evening, Bald, "Republicans are an ornery lot, never able to do the right thing at the right time." Mr. Study agreed with this statement. Ungracious Mr. Study! iThe Republicans enabled him to beome city attorney. The state railroad commission has onnd Hrwn nnrkthpr f.'ivomhlft rleC. . 1. .........

RAILROAD NEWS. NEED HAVE LITTLE FEAR. NOT LIKELY THAT RAILROADS WILL REDUCE FORCES. Considered More Likely That There Will Be an Increase With Cold V -'.her. Men now in the employ of the Pennsylvania railro?d company on the Richmond division, need have lit tle fear that they will lose their po sitions on account of the retrench ment policy Inaugurated by the Pennsylrr-'- nrnth ago, It is paid. Th' - xne road was reel- .u.nn... -i last spring and insu-uj of still further reducing It, it is very probable that a number ot men will be added in the course of th-9 next few weeks and particular ly is this true in the train crews. Brakemen and firemen of experience are needed. It is assorted and a good ly number will be hired foon. Mth rnminc- cr tne w:;uer monins a i large opern'"?: force U needed. LITTLE WORK DONE. Since the Grand Rapids and Indiana withdrew its gravel trains from the southern division of the road in the Bprlng. stating that the road would do no ballasting on this end this year, it ctlcallv nothing has been . A V rnrHf inn nt tht ) road bed. G., R. & I. officials said in the spring that the southern end of road needed ballasting then and some are wondering now whether or not the road still needs ballast. Work on the eouthern division will begin again in the spring, it is s.-.id. WORK NOT SO HEAVY. With the beginning of the fall either, section foremen and their .en see a slack In their work of keep- ' i
Peace ne.
ing the roadways of the local railroads. An endeavor has been made during the summer to get the roadways and tracks in excellent condition prior to the opening of the winter weather. When the snow begins to fly and cold freezing weather descends, but little work can be done in shaping up the road bed. There remains much work to be done yet and the men will be rushed till it is completed. CALL FOR GRAIN CARS. Again the long "howl" for grain cars goes up from all points in thi3 part of the country. The stations west of here seem to need them most, or at least they are making the most noise about it. The harvesting of crops always means a suddenly increasing demand for grain cars. As every station wants to be supplied at once, it always means that some one is disappointed, and the railroad officials have to use tact that would do credit to a prime minister in serins that no one gets unusually "sore" because he Is slighted. At the present time the railroads are carefully nursing the trade by placing a few cars here and there, meanwhile promising that more will be forthcoming shortly. LIKE FLYING HOTEL. "It's like running a hotel with fifty dining rooms, flying all over the country." This is the way a veteran In the dining car service of a big railroad sought to describe his occupation. Even then he failed to give an adequate idea of the Intricacies in
volved in keeping a collection of roll ing restaurants up to the top notch of effiviency. Seventy thousand passengers are fed every month on the dining cars of the Pennsylvania Railroad alone. The monthly receipts amount to $G5,000, and the amount of money spent on supplies to about $35,000. In the dining car crews there are 430 men. BECOMING CONFIDENT. Evidence is plentiful that railroad managements are becoming more confident in affairs again after the construction lapse of the last few months. This retrenchment policy came at the time the state legislature was enacting laws regulating roads and making the 2-cent fare. Many of the hlgner omcials became alarmed and important contract work was dropped, but bids are now being asked an new lines of road, track elevation and other items of larger Interest than maintained by various railroads. The Pennsylvania has Just awarded a contract for $2,000,000 worth of track elevation work for the elimination of thirty-one grade crossings in the northeastern part of Philadelphia. SHIPPERS GRATIFIED. Shippers are much gratified that the Railroad commission n classification delays the widespread advance of freight rates until January. The freight classifications, which have just been distributed, will not become effective until next January. The general advance in minimum weights an'd cancellation of numerous commodity tariffs, which, when decided upon, ar. expected to effect an Increase all around of about 5 per cent in rates is off until the first of next year. ? ACTION RESCINDED. So much objection was raised over the attempt of some of t.e roads to charge $2 per car for handling certain lines of cars at Indianapolis that :t was brought before the freight associa tion at its meetly in Chicago last week and it was voted by all roads to rescind such action. Consequently, this order Is now void. Since the beginning of this year five male immigrants have landed in New York city to two female Immigrants.
