Rebates by Classification. It is well known that some shippers Bave been enjoving speeial favors at the hands of certain rallroads through the medium of juggled classifications No one knows, of course, the extent of this juggling and the favoritism it emrries. President Taft has been im- pressed with the representations made to him and he fears that the benefits of abolishing direct rebates have been neutralized, in a large measure, by this indirect method of doing the same thinge. He will urge congress so to amend the Hepburn rate law as to em- power the interstate commerce com- mission to prescribe uniform classi- on for the whole country. classification, together with the Su: provisions and penalties already set forth in the Hepburn act for making false classifications and for faflure to make puodlic the classifications used, should go far to correct the discrimi- nations that still exist in freight ship- ping. nd it is foretold, and plausibly, that the railroads will be ready to co- operate with the president and with congress if congress is favorably dis- po: in bringing about this reform because they have learned from the abolition of direct rebates that it is more profitable to the railroads col- lectively to make the same rates to all shippers. At the same time it is the only decent and honorable way to ess.—Kansas City Star. The Good Roads Problem. ‘With an annual expenditure of $60,- 000,00¢ by states, the roads of t.hu country are being improved somewha: by the construction ‘of e highways, but the last report of Di- rector L. W. Page of the public roads office of the department of agriculture shows the need of still more work and expense. Page claims that more than half of the states have working.plans for the construction of good roads, and that other states are making moves toward progress, but the country de- mands more haste in many sections. Counties have of late been bonding their resources to build better roads, in advance of state action, in some cases where the counties are larger than some of the older states. Good roads has evidently become more of a local issue in such ‘instances, and the effect is bound to be beneficial to the country. In the east the states have more generally taken up the highways as an entire system, but in the west the states are so large that the high- ways get small attention from them. Director Page says this country and Burope have been trying to find means to prevent the destruction of macadam roads by the wheels'of automobiles, but he does not add that any of the experts have been satisfied with what they have discovered. There are scores of fair processes, but the one perfect system is still wanting apparently.— Worcester Télegram.

Dr. Nelson Millard Died Nflllmfllh‘ S at Rocbuler on Wednesday —Was at Broadway Church Three and One-Half Years The Rev. Dr. Nelson Millard, a. for- mer pastor of the Broadway Congre- gational church, died Wednesday at his home in Rocehster, N. Y. Dr. Millard’s pastorate in Norwich covered a period of three and a half years, and ended In November, 1§87, when he was called to the First Presbyterian church in Roch- ester, being succeeded at the Broadway church by Rev. Dr. Lewellyn Pratt. During his residence in Norwich Dr. Millard proved himself an efficient minister and his sterling qualities as a man made for him many warm friends. The New York Tribune says him: Dr. Millard was for many vears an active supporter of the liberal move- ment In the orthodox churches of America. It was during his Roches- ter pastorate that the dicussion of the “new theology” reached its acute stage. Dr. Millard incurred much sharp crit- of AR iccism, but he was u.v:orufl by his parisioners and contini Presby- terian minister until 1906, when he an- nounced his complete independence. He was born at Delhi, ., In 1834, and was graduated at Union college in 1853 and at Union Theol cu semin- ary in 1860. He received of A. M. from nkmcouocei-nlmd that of D. D. in 1874. After several years spent as tutor in his alma ma- ter and in study and travel in Europe, he became pastor of the Presbyterian church_at Montclair, N. J., in 1860. From there he went to Olivet Presby- terian chura, in Chicago, in 1867, and afterwards served successively as pas- tor of the Second Presbyterian church, Peeskskill; the First Presbytreian church of Syracuse, and the Broadway Congregational church of Norwieh, Ct. In 1887 he went to Rochester as pastor of the First Presbytreian church,where he remained until 1900. After his re- tirement he spent some time in travel.

'The Noank postoffice was again en- tered Wednesday night by someone who evidently was not looking for money or stamps. Fntrance was made by cutting a pane of glass out of the back door. As these are large win- dows, the opening was sufficient for a person’s body to pass through. The door of the safe was opeped, but as far as could be ascertained no stamps were taken and the safe contained no money, as Postmaster G. E. Andrews took # home with him. The burglar seemed to be prepared for interference, @s Mrs. Carrie Cook, who resides up- stairs, was tied in, as she was when the office was entered before. The in- truder was evidently scared away, as nothing was disturbed but the safe door, and as everything was in order in the morning, it looks as though he did not make a thorough search. This is the second time the office has been entered in a month and again demon— strates the need of a patrolman for the streets at night. REFUSED TO PAY $500 DEMANDED BY BLACK HAND. New York Woman Bound Hand and Foot and Her House Fired. New York, Jan. 5.—Bound hand and foot to a kitchen chair, Mrs. Josephine Genzardi sat and watched the flames of her burning house creep mearer and | nearer tonight until just before they reacher her firemen burst down the door. She had refused to pay_$500 demanded from her in a Black Hand letter last August. Two men who said they were plumb- ers knocked at her door tonight, with permission from the landlord, they said, to repair the plumbing. No soen- er were they ndmitted than they took a different tone. “We are the men who wrote that let- ter,” s the spokesman. “@ive us the money or we will kill you." M nzardi fainted ‘from- fright. When she recovered she was bound to the chair the room had been_ set on fire. The woman was nearly dead from terror and suffocation when res— cued. “The dress Mrs. De Style wore at the opera was a perfect poem,” said Mrs. Howard. “As far as it went, no doubt,” replied her husband, “but I thought some cantos were missing.”— Brooklyn Life. saw WOLF AT l.ho\mun cnrr:n.

TRUST MERGER DETAILS ANNOUNCED LAST NIGHT. Mesting of Boards of Guaranty-Mor- ton-Fifth Avenue Trust Co. New York, Jan. 5.—Details of the Gmmny-umon-rlru: Avenue Trust compan: ‘were made public to- night after a meeting of the boards of directors of . the three companies. Among other things a further increase was authorized in the capital stock of the Guaranty Trust company, as titu- lar head, from $3,000.000 to $5,000,000. The capital stock had been previously increased from $2,000,000 to $3,000,000. It now only remains for stockholders to formally ratify the action of the directors at a meeting to be held on Jan. 25 and to exchange their stock unde ra plan agreed upon tonight. Upon the completion of the mergsr the Guaranty Trust company will have a capital stock of $5,000,000. The sur- plus, including all undivided profi‘s, of approximately $21,000,000, and com-— bined deposits of $126,000,000. Henry P. Davison, of J. P. Morgan & company, who announced the details of the merger tonight, was asked if the enlarged Guaranty company, putting the Morgan interests in control of the most powerful trust company in the country, would have increased re- lations with the New York traction situation, in line with Mr. Morgan's recent activities in the traction field. He represented that the merger is be- ing effected independent of any trac- tion plans. He would not sanction any deductions drawn as to the ultimate situation. The generally credited report that the Guaranty company ultimate- ly will absorb the Bankers’ Trust com- pany, and perhaps others, Mr. David- son smilingly denied. Storm Nearly Did It. The 150-ton hydraulic dredge, which will be lifting its own weight of sand every little while from the excava- tions for the Cape Cod canal, has been placed with her nose against the bank and will be working at making the cape an island as rapidly as circum- stances will permit. And this work of machinery must be rapid, or Nature may cut in and make the cape an is- land before the canal can be pushed through the sands. The encircling of the tip of the cape by the waters of Old Ocean was nearly acoemplished during the recent iashing of the Peak Hill bar by winds and waves, and a portion of the cape not far inland from Provincetown has been left a narrow sandy isthmus, which Ensign W. G. Richardson, chief of the Boston hydro- graphic ‘bureau, says another comb! nation of high wind, driving sea, spring tide and full moon might cut by a channel which the . waters would ever after claim for their own.
