SUITS AGAINST RAILROADS Many Violations of Safety Appllance Law Alleged. ‘Washington, Sept. . — United States district attorneys in varlous parts of the country have been in- structed by Attorney General Bona- narte to institute suits against a large number of railroad companies to re- cover penalties incurred by them for alleged violations of the safety appli- ance law. The department of justice and the interstate commerce commis- slon have decided upon a rigld en- forcement of this law. The facts upon Which the prosecutions are to be based were developed by inspectors of the commission. The number of alleged violations aggregates 287. Among the lines made defendants, together with the number of violations charged against each company, are: Great Northern 22, Illinois’ Central 4, Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific 6, Northern Pacific 86 and Grand Trunk 31, R b SR ALTON ROAD ESCAPES Judge Landis Finally Accepts the Immunity Plea. MOFFETT MUST MAKE GOOD President of Standard Oil Company of Indiana Ordered to Appear Before Grand Jury and Explain His Charge of Rebating by Others. Chicago, Sept. .—It was declded by Judge Landls in the United States district court that the Chicago and Alton rallway shall not be further prosecuted for its connection with the Standard Ol company in the granting of rebates between Whiting, Ind., and East St. Louis, IIl, It was claimed by Attorney General Bonaparte, whose letter was read to the court by District Attorney Sims, that Mr. Morrison, the predecessor of Mr. Sims in office, had promised im- munity to the Alton road provided it assisted In good faith in the prosecu- tlon of the Standard Oil company. The attorney general theretore claimed that it was the duty of the government to see that no further steps toward the punishment of the railroad for its part in the granting of the rebates be taken. The attorney general asked that the grand jury which had been summoned at the in- stance of Judge Landis to investigate the Alton railroad be discharged and that the matter be allowed to drop as far as the Chicago and Alton was concerned. Judge Landis, in a statement which required fully thirty minutes for its delivery, declined to discharge the jury, but instructed its members that they had no further duty to perform i connection with the Chicago and Alton railroad. The court then called attention to a statement recently is- sued by President Moffett of the Standard Oil company of Indiana in which it was claimed that if the Standard Oil company was guilty of receiving rebates no other manufac- turer was innocent. The court direct- ed the jury to investigate the conduct of other manufacturers and directed that a subpoena be issued for Pres- ldent Moffett. OIL TRUST BOOKS MISSING Supposed to Show Stock Transactions of Octor is. New York, Sept. ‘—Two books | which it is supposed show the stock transactions by which the Standard 0il company of New Jersey took over the control of nineteen other oil com- | panies, formerly allied with the Stand- ard Oil company of Ohio, cannot be | found. They are wanted by Frank B. Kellogg, the government’s counsel in the proceedings against the Standard Oil company. They are the ledger and stock book kept by John N. Ben- singer, the transfer clerk in the em- ploy of the company’s liguidating trus- tees between 1892 and 1899, when the reorganization was effected. Mr. Kellogg hopes by the books to prove that the Standard Oil company of New Jersey is really a reorganiza- tion of the company which was dis- solved by the government fifteen years ago for alleged restraint of trade. Ben- singer has testified that he left the books in the vaults of the Standard 0Oil building at No. 26 Broadway fin 1900, when his services as transfer clerk were no longer required, but John C. Milburn, of counsel for the company, who offered to search the transfer department of the Standard 0Oil company for Mr. Kellogg, could not find them. Nor could Wesley H. Tilford, treasurer; Charles M. Pratt, secretary, and William G. Rockefeller, assistant treasurer of the company, enlighten Mr. Kellogg as to thelr whereabouts. JAMAICA GETS IN LINE. Objects to Influx of Chinese and Syrians, Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. ‘—The influx of Chinese here is a serious matter.

The resolution is aimed at the Chi- mese and Syrians, who, it is said, are overrunning the island. RECEIVERS ARE NAMED. New York clty Railway Company in Financial Trouhle.

Washington, Sept. ,—Bids were opened at the bureau of equipment of the navy department during the day for the transporting and supplying of coal for the use of the Atlantic battle- ship fleet during its coming voyage to the Pacific coast in December, The proposals contemplated the shipment or supply of this coal to be delivered at various points in the West Indies and on the South American coast, and a1 "Magdalene bay, Mare f{sland and San KFrancisco on,the Pacific coast of North Americe. Under one form of proposal bids were asked to submit estimates for transporting 133,000 tous of American semi-bituminous coazl to be obtained by the navy de-. partment from various North Atlantic ports elther in American or foreign bottoms. The other proposal asked for estimates for supplylng 120,000 tons of Welsh coal. Between fifteen and twenty blds In all were submitted, Your T ee;h TSN Need attention. ‘It will cost you less now than after awhile, It won’t cost you anything to have them exam- ined apyway.

WILL OBEY THEIR PRIEST Girls of Allentown, Pa,, No Longer En- tertain Students. Allentown, Pa,, Sept. .—Following a ban which has been placed upon them from the pulpit of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, under which the girls of the parish have been forbidden to entertain them, stu- dents of Lehigh university held a big wmeeting on the campus and discussed the situation with much fervor. Rev. Father J. P, Walsh, rector, who issued the order, said: “I don’t think Lehigh is any worse than any other college. Lehigh,"how- ever, is the college that is here. There- fore 1 had 'o name it. It would be the same if T were in any other city wherein was a college. While it is true that there are some students in college it would do no girl harm to wmeet the fact is that they are so few that a general order is the only safe thing.” The girls say they will obey the priests. This, however, may. be merely tactful on their part. Fathers Walsh and Gaffney gave them no alternative. Parents are divided upon the subject, hut for every objector to the decree of the church there are ten who agree with it. SURPRISING DISCOVERY. Atmosphere at Altitudes Coldest Above the Equator. Dresden, Saxony, Sept. ! ,—At the meeting of the congress of German sclentists the remarkable statement was made by Professor Hergesell of Strasburg university that atmosphere at altitudes is the coldest over the equator and the warmest above the poles, This surprising fact, he ex- plained, was determined by balloon | ascents made during the month of July in various latitudes under the auspices of the international commit- lee which has been investigating the atmosphere at high altitudes, The ohservations, which were taken with automatic instruments attached to un. manned balloons, have not yet been worked out in detail, ‘but Professor Hergesell finds his conclusions abun- dantly proved through the data thus collected. Balloons which reached al- titdudes of eleven to twelve and a half miles in the tropics were found to have, registered about 148 degrees be- low zero, Fahrenheit, while in the lati- tude of Central Europe the tempera- ture was only 76 to 85 below zero at the heights indicated. Another fact established by these balloon ascents is that the greatest cold of the upper atmosphere is reached at heights from six to six and three-quarter miles, varying somewhat in different parts of the world.” Above that height, contrary to the assumption of scien: tists hitherto, the air actually grows warmer. This warmer strata of air is deduced to be highest at the equator and lowest at the poles, where it is estimated to begin at about four and one-third nnles. LAST OBSTAGLE REMOVED Clover Leaf Road Secures the Chicago and Alton. ~ Chicago, Sept. . .—The granting of immunity to the Chicago and Alten railroad for paying rebates to the Standard Oil company by Judge Lan- dis removes the only obstacle in the way of ratification of the sale by the Rock Island railroad- of a. controlling interest in the Alton to'the Toledo, St. Louis and Western, or Clover Leaf reflroad, and the consolidation ulti- mately of the Alton, Clover Leaf, Min- neapolis and St. Louis and Towa Cen- tral raflroads. As soon as the necessary financial details are adjusted a reorganization of the four roads will be effected, but the independent organization of each may be maintained for some time and the combination deferred until it is certain that no legal complications will result.
