B, William A. Bissell, assistant traffic manager of the Santa Fe, arrived home | yesterday from New York and other| Eastern cities after being away a lit- | tle over a month. He declared that busi- | ness conditions are most favorable ly enthusiastic over the increased traffic “Do you know,” he sald, “that the month of October was a record breaker for our company. It is a fact we handled previous month in the history of the com- | pany. “We have simply got to do something to accommodate our constantly increasing | patronage and the first step in that di- rection will be taken with the beginning of next month, when an additional through train between Chicago and this city will be put on. This will give the Santa Fe two trains a day into San Fran. cisco, also two to Los Angeles and three as far as to Barstow. This additional service ought to relieve present conditions and will no doubt be appreciated by our patrons.” Mr. Bissell was asked for an opinion as | to the rpobable outcome of the St. Louis | rate case, which comes up for final argu- ment before the Interstate Commerce Commission in Washington December 10. Ot course, as we look at it replied Mr. Bissell, “there is only one verdict—a verdict in_favor of the ta Fe and | Southern Pacific. The St. Louls business men in bringing this suit are anacklnfi existing conditions that cannot very well | be_avolded.” The object of the suit is to force the overland lines to lessen their carload | rates so that Eastern firms can do a job- | bing business in the small towns of the coast in competition with San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland, Tacoma and Seat- tle. The case is one of the most impor- tant that the commission has had to set- tle, exceeding in importance even the | routing case of the Southern California | Fruit Exchange against the Southern Pa- | cific, Santa Fe and other roads. Mr. Bissell will attend the hearing in Washington, as will J. C. Stubbs and Wil- liam F. Herrin of the Southern Paclfic. NOT AFTER OREGON LINES. Mellen Says His Road Doesn’t Want Southern Pacific Property. Considerable interest is manifested lo- cally in a statement recently made in New York by President Mellen of the Northern Pacific Railroad, which was re- ported to be negotiating for the South- ern Pacific's Oregon lines. Mr. Mellen says there is nothing to the story, and | 1 | adds: 1 ““Mr. Hill, president of the Great North- | ern, and I have had a conference and we | find that our {deas are much more similar | than we had supposed. We traveled on the same car over the Northern Pacific from Seattle to Butte, and from there on we rode over the Great Northern. “I may say that the relations between the two roads are at the present time as harmonious as those of any two compet- ing railroad companies in the country. At the same time a break might occur day, although the sky at present is 83?&. clear. R SR CONFERENCE TO BE HELD. Fillmore Returns From EI Paso Ready to Meet Employes. Manager J. A.

SECOND SMALLPOX CASE APPEARS AT PRESIDIO Detention Camp Is Now Occupied by' Two Troopers With the Dread Disease. A second case of smallpox has been discovered at the Presidio and sent to the detention camp. C. Schacklett, a private in Light Battery C, Third Artillery, re- ported at the post hospital several days ago and was held for observation. Yes- terday the medical officers pronounced his disease smallpox and he was immediate- ly isolated. The patient who was sent to the detention camp several days ago is greatly improved, but as a measure of recaution he will not be restored to duty or_some time.

Locked up in the tanks at the City Prison is a seventeen-year-old boy, who, | according to the police, is one of the most daring crooks in the country. His name is Harry Eddo. Despite his tender years he has committed at least a score of bold crimes that would do *‘credit” to the most experienced crook. Eddo’s home is in Connecticut.
