- FACTS ABOUT RAILROADTRAVEL What It Costs to Carry Passensera on Western Roads. There is a surprising amount of misinformation among the people regarding the cost of carrying passengers on railread trains and to this condition of the public mind is doubtless due much of the sentiment in favor of lower rates.* which is finding expression through bills for sweeping reductions in the Legislatures of many of the Western States this winter. | Mr. P. S. Eustis, General Passedger Agent of the C., B. & Q. R. R., in an argument before the Hosse Committee of the I Missouri Legislature last week on the I two-cent bill, gave some valuable and I ■apprising information about the passen- I ger business in the West. His statements I were based’upon the reports of the Inter- I ■fate Commerce Commission and the Rail- I ro"ad and Warehouse Commission of Mis- I souri, and are therefore beyond question. I Mr. Eustis showed in the first'place that I the volume of passenger traffic on rail- I roads is dependent upon the density and I wealth of population in tho territory I through which it" runs, and then compared I the population of Missouri and the traffic I resulting from it with the same figures I in other States.^thus clearly illustrating I i the theory of his point. I I The following table showing the relative I < population and rates is interesting in this I I

connection: '* ■—.... Fihht Tn firm Pnsspngpr lation per revenue per sq. mile. mileofß.R.

This is due to the fact that the railroad having a long line between two points cannot charge more than the rate fixed by a road having a shorter line, and to excursion rates demanded by the people, all of which reduce the average rate materially. But the most surprising assertion made by Mr. Eustis was that the Western roads, with possibly one or two individual exceptions, carry passengers at an actual I loss. Ihe St. Louis, Keokuk and North- I western was cited as an instance. Mr. Eustis produced a statement of the ex- I nAnsn on thnf rood ~1.--—- *l. -a. • » * '

pense on that road to show that the co®* per passenger per mile exceeded coree cents, the legal rate. The report of the Intp”-‘ate Commerce Commission referrm- to the railroads of Illinois, lowa. Wisconsin, Minnesota and that part the Dakotas and Missouri lying es^C of the Missouri river shows that it cost the railroads two and three onethousandths cents per mile to carry passengers, exclusive of any charge for taxes, rents, interest on mortgages and other Items of the kind. Mr. Eustis declared that a two-cent fiat rate in Missouri would reduce the average to one and three-quar-ters' cents, if not lower. It was shown that lower rates do not largely increase traffic, and instances were cited where reductions from four cents and three and one-half cents per mile ikd not result in increased travel. Answering the question as to whether rates in Europe were not lower than in this country, Mr. Eustis showed that while the third-class rate on some Eu^^^nean lines is lower, the second-class by the great travei-

rates, rhe dohrtdiivuw third-class travel in Europe are not to be compared with those of America m point ©f comfort and convenience. ( Coughing Leads to Consumption.

Gunboats in a Gale. I Admiral Bunce’s blockading squadron I reached port Monday at Charleston. S. C., I after a disastrous voyage from Hampton I Roads. Three men were lost overboard I from the battleship Maine during the gale I of Friday, one-man was crushed to death on the cruiser Marblehead, another was fatally injured, and six others were so badly hurt that several may lose limbs. The details of the accidents on the Marbehead are not obtainable. Monday night, as she lay oft" the jetties. she presented a dismantled appearance. Iler forecastle was stove in, a portion of her superstructure and two hatches carried away. The heavy seas ' that swept her decks also carried away 1 her searchlight, lower port beam. smash- 1 ed the rails and swept overboard the life- ' boats. Carpenter Shawberl was crushed to ■

The six seamen I who wore injured are believed to have I been hurt at the same time, but the officers I of the vessel are reticent as to the details lof the accident. Carpenter Shawberl was I buried at sea. Signs of Rough Voyage. The other vessels of the fleet show marks of their rough voyage, their upper works and deck hamper being damaged. The squadron weighed anchor in the Ronds Thursday morning ami put to sea. I Friday evening the weather thickened I and by night was blowing a gale. The Indiana returned to the Roads owing to the I condition of her turrets, The rest "f fit" I fleet, however, poked their uo«<s into the I storm and headed south " hen about fifty miles off Hut*”* B the fleet encountered the full 8 the blow. Open squadron 'rnuition was maintained and the v^'sels were put in order for a siege I weather.

* The battleship Maine rolled in the big seas, the water washing her decks nt every plunge. It was late Friday after , noon when the accident took place which cost three seamen their lives, and three Others were rescued only by prompt and heroic work. A gang of men was ordered forward to make more secure the lashings. when an unusually heavy sea curled over her bows ami swept aft. Six of the gang were picked up and carried overboard before they could escape tin* wave. Suitors Are Lost. When the cry of ‘‘Man overboard" was carried back there was a scene of momentary confusion, but in an instant the splendid discipline of the crew was apparent. Life buoys were cut loose and the order quickly given to get a boat overboard. The high seas made this work one of peril and difficulty, but a boat’s crew under Naval Cadet Walter R. Gherardi, son of Rear Admiral Gherardi, retired, was finally lowered, excellent seamanship alone preventing the frail craft from being

The »b>P« watched the rescuers ns they pulled mnnfully in the heavy sens, tho wnves run ning so high that the little bont "- 1 " •'* times hidden from the vessel s deck as n rushed down into the trough. Meantime the drowning men fought bravely, am three of them managed to keep afloat until their mates hauhal them out of the water. They were Seamen Hassel. Cronan ami Freeman. The remaining three Brown. Nelson and Kogel were not to be seen. The lifeboat cruised back nnd forth over , the sea. but the brave fellows had given . up the struggle and met a saihu * a < . . Cadet Gherardi ami his boat s crew were highly complimented by the oflnets lor e their brave work.

The Dolphin, which came up from Hu south, arrived Sunday and experienced no severe weather. A boat from the Maine visited Charleston Monday afternoon with several officers. They visited the collector of the port and hied telegrams. A dispatch from Washington was awaiting Admiral Bunce, presumably from the Navy Department in eonneetiou with the blockading maneuvers.

CHANGE IN PENSION AGENCIES. Order Issued Reducing the Number of Offices. The President has signed, on the recommendation of Secretary of the Interior Francis, an order reducing the number of pension agencies in the United States from eighteen to nine. It will go into effect Sept. 1. The object is to effect a large saving to the Government without inconveniencing tho pensioners. The Secretary says the cost of disbursing pensions can now be reduced by at least $150,000 per annum. The change was made possible by an amendment in 1896 to the law governing the disbursing of pensions, requiring that all pensioners should, after that date, be paid by checks remitted by mail. Reports show that under this plan the pensioners are paid much more promptly, and that the possibility of error is minimized, lacy also advise that the beneficiaries receive their pensions by mail at their homes, where, being surrounded by family influences, the pensioner is much more likely to make a judicious disposition of his pension money than has been too often tin* case in the past. The total cost for pensions and the disbursement thereof for the fiscal year ended June 30, ISIMi, was $112,206,550, made up as follows: Payments to pensioners. ...$139,215,17(1 Fees to examining surgeons. 672,587 Maintaining pension bureau

at Washington 2,753,700 Cost of maintaining pension agencies 565,027 It is on this hist item that the new order is intended to save between $150,000 and I $t(lo,ooo per annum. I’he following are the nine agencies and I the number of pensioners paid thereof under the new order: Boston 94,357 New York 98,833 Philadelphia 106,735 Washington 110.265 Columbus 104,492 Indianapolis 116.0G6 Chicago 125,123 St, I.miis 161,709 i San Francisco 23 098 I Total 970,678 ’ All pensioners of the United States rv- . siding in foreign countries, and now num 1 boring 3,181 1 will continue to bo paid from i the Washington ngem-y. and the navy ( pensioners will be paid as heretofore from ’ Boston.
