There Is a crcnd row right In night over
Ihe Denver school teachers and the perni
cious activity shown by Home of the rail
roads In getting the little business there was
from the west.
When the Burlington w'as charged with
cutting the rate for the school teachers of
the Colorado capital Mr. Francis , general
passenger agent of the road , nent a letter
to Chairman Caldwell explanatory of the
situation , conceding that the records of his
office showed flvo round trip tickets sold ,
but at regular tariff rates , and fhen the
general pasesnger agent proceeded t . recite
a few thing * which other roads Lad been
guilty of to necure business.
It In now learned that Chairman Caldwell
considers the answer of Mr. Francis ambig
uous and chat competing lines would regard
the letter with much more favor if Mr.
Francis had come out and stated unequivo
cally , not what the records of his office
showed , but that no cut or other unauthor
ized effort hud been made to Induce the
teachers to patronize bis road.
Last night Mr , Francis was Informed of
Mr , Caldwcll'a opinion , to which the general
passenger agent of the Burlington replied :
"All this talk about the Burlington cutting
the rate for Denver school teachers is cal
culated to withdraw Investigation from the
doings of competing lines. In fact. It U
very much like throwing dust In order that
some other road may escape In the general
cry of 'stop thief. ' I wrote Mr. Caldwell
that we had discovered that flve tickets had
been purchased , but ut regular tariff rates.
Since that time I have redeemed one ticket.
I have every reason to believe that of the
other four tickets out one or more has been
purchased by competing lines for redemption ,
nnd I have very grave doubts whether a
Hlngle passenger traveled on the tickets still
out. When I was Informed that the Denver
office was manipulating the market I Im
mediately requested our Denver agent to
discontinue the sole. If otherwise than at
tariff rates , and was Informed that every
thing was straight nnd above hoard. Now , I
haven't a word to say , except that all this
hue and cry la raised by some one who Is
desirous of withdrawing public scrutiny from
their own doings. "
or GIIUAT VALUE TO HAILKOAD MEN.
History of the IVnire Srheduln Conference
in Olimlm 1'ulillxhed In llook lrorm.
It has been a great many years since the
railroad world of America has been so In
tensely Interested over the outcome of a case
as during the hearing In the matter of the
petition of the receivers of the Union Pacific
system In reference to the wage schedules
of employes. During the long conference be
tween the officials of the "Overland. " system
the employes affected by the change in
schedules and the circuit court of the United
States , Judges Caldwell and RIncr sitting ,
the Interest was wide spread , the railway
employes an far east as Maine and as far
west as California showing by the eagerness
In reading the dally papers that many vital
principles were at stake.
While the newspapers of Omaha published
extended proceedings of the trial , much that
was Interesting ; and much that vitally con-
Darned railroad workers had to be omitted ,
b'ut the decree of Judge Caldwell that the
proceedings should be printed in book , .form
went far toward satisfying the railroad world
with the limitation which the newspapers
were compelled to place on their report ot
the case.
This book has now been published by the
Omaha Printing company , making a hand-
qcime volume of nearly 800 pages , with wide
margins and large type , and Is a decided
contribution to railroad literature. The case
itself was history making and the book will
preserve .fn tangible form the proceedings
In that trial , which were unique through
out , for they were- little like the usual dry
proceedings In a court ot equity. In addi
tion to the BOO volumes ordered by Judge-
Caldwell. the Omaha printing company has
printed 1,000 extra copies , bath in leather
and paper bindings , which will be offered
for sale to railway organizations and others
interested in tlit case. The book Is complete
dh every respect , not only having the evi
dence in existence , but the complete sched
ules , both old and new , comparisons as to
the cost of labor on various railroads. In
brief , It Is an unabridged compendium of
the wage question which Judge Caldwell
passed open In his now famous decision.

The volume of passenger business to move
by the railroads of the transrnlssourt country
U very much smaller this year than during
the same period for the last ten years , last
year of course being cxcepted , But the
email business has not deterred the railroads
from going after the business with scalping :
knives , utter demoralization being the result.
Probably Denver has been the scene of the
greatest demoralization , school teacher *
from that city east hound having greatly
benefited by the keen competition of trans-
niitisotirl trunk lines.
While charges have been made against
several roads , it now appears that one of the
roads supposed to be entirely innocent , of the
cutting of rates has resorted to very pecul
iar methods to secure business. "la fact. "
said a railroader , "it Is a little .the > orst
thing that has beei. done by a railroad In
years , being no less than hauling Denver
school teachers eastbound on advertising
tickets and ttiat. too on a rate of J1S from
Denver to Chicago when the standard rate
la (2X25. Such
a condition of affairs can
only result In still further reduction. Edi
torial transportation la regarded as entirely
sacred to newspapers that carry advertise
ments for the various railroads , and Is usu
ally Issued by th advertising man of a rail
road on the * request of an editor or other
person so empowered to make requests and
usually passes Blreclly under the. eye of ihe
general passenger agent. General offices of
railroad * have .lavariahly a supply of these
tickets on haiiU for the purpose of paying
newspapers for the advertisements they
carry But this 'under the hat' business of
necurlncr business on the part of a Colorado
line quite- transcends anything of the kind
cror attempted In railroading. I understand
that ereral ot.these advertising ticket * have
been obtained and will be forwarded to the
chairman of the Western Passenger associa
tion , not 'because. any action U desired , butte
to show to what , extremes roads will resort
to get business. "

'Charges against the Burlington , Cedar

chairman of the Western Passenger associa

CHICAGO , June 23. The flmt quadrennial
meeting of the American Hallway union was
adjourned this afternoon until June 1 ! . 180S.
All arrangement * for the boycott of the
Pullman company were dlscusaed and the
adjournment was taken amid enthusiastic
cheering for President Debs and the officers.
In the eleitlon of two directors , M. J.
Elliott of Butte , Mont. , nnd J. P. McVenn
of Cleveland were tuccessful nominees. The
salaries of tSio various officers were fixed
by the convention as follows : PresidBiit ,
$3,000 per year ; vice president , uocretary.
and chief editor of the Rillway Times ,
J2.400 each ; directors. $1,500 per annum.
A resolution of thanks to the delegates
was given to the convention by the Pullman
delegates for the action taken In relation to
the trouble at Pullman and for donatloni
made to the Pullman relief fund. President
Debs said there was but one thing In the
proceedings of the convention he would
change It be had the power and that was the
vote In relation to the admittance of the
negro to membership In the union. How
ever , the majority had voted against the
measure and he proponed to stand by the
action of the majority In all cases.
In the matter of the proposed action
against the Pullman company he cautioned
the delegates to stand firm and to give their
utmost confidence to the officers and the
board of directors. He assured them that
the organization would win this fight as It
had won all It had undertaken In the past
He believed It might result In tlie greatest
railroad strike In the history of the country
and this was only another reason why they
should stand firm and take advantage of
every opportunity to help their struggling
brothers at Pullman.

NEW yOIlK , Juna 23. The World con
tains an interview with Mr. Huntlngton in
regard to the suits brought against the
Pacific receivers by Attorney General Olney.
He Bays the suits do not trouble him and
adds : "Of course , I would rather they had
not been begun , but It It came to a. matter
of putting out one dollar to stop them I
would not. I will not discuss them. I
saw the flaming head lines in the paper the
other day : 'Thirty years of crime. " It Is
the habit of the newspaper to print sensa
tional things without strict reference to
how much truth there is in them. But us
to these suits , I know all about them and
there Is nothing In them. For some time
bade half a dozen or more men have been
writing to mo and telling me that unless I
sent for them and saw them they would
tell the people a number of things the
people onght to know. There Is one man
who Is particularly active in this line. 1
told them that U there were things the
American people ought to know by all means
to go ahead and tell them. These people
have gone to Mr. Olney , I suppose , , and
that I take to be the origin of the suits.
From what I have heard of Mr. Olney I
am sure ho would not have commenced the
suits unless he felt convinced It was his
duty to do so. I believe him to be a man
of ability and a just man. "

California Masons Comply with tlio
Iteqneat of a ilruther.
OAKLAND , CaL , June 23. A strange In
cident in. the history of Free Masonry , un
precedented in this country , took place at
Mountain View cemetary today. It was the
burial with Masonic rites of the heart of
Yguacio Herreray Cairo , one of the early
governors ot Mexico and a Mason whom
the members of the order call a martyr to
their cause.
The heart has been for a year on deposit
in the casket in the Masonic temple of Oak-
hind , it having been brought from Mexico
to Gel chapel No. S of the. Rosa Crolx. At
the burial place In Mountain View cemetary
the foundation' stone ot a monument was laid
by the grand lodge of Masons of the state.
The casket enclosing the heart was wrapped
in two silk , flags , one American and the
other Mexican , and deposited under the foun
dation stone. Masons from all over the
coast were In attendance. Several Mexican
societies were also present.
Shortly after tiie declaration of Mexico's
Independence Cairo became identified with
the Masonic , fraternity , and was made gov
ernor of the state of Jutlsco. Mer. While
In this position he was Informed of a plot
against the government by the Carmelites.
He ordered the plotters thrown Into prison ,
and they were punished. For tills action on
hi * part , it Is said. he became
a marked man. In the course of
time Cairo was retired from the governor
ship and went to live on a farm to pass a
quiet life. Soon afterwards he was shot to
death by Manuel Pielago. Cairo said he
knew that his Masonic faith had hastened
him to his doom. Before be died he asked
four of his brother Masons to take his heart
after his death and give It to some chapter
of the Hose Crobc for burial. The heart has
been- since very carefully guarded ,

The tar stiffened about his person and walk

Finally he knocked at a , farmer's door. A
woman responded to his summons and was
almost overcome by fright. General Tars-

asked her to call the men. She did BO after
convincing the farmers whoXie was , and
after relating his experience everything that
could be done for him was done. A neigh

the deputies who went to Cripple Creek , his
Indignation was aroused. He gave General
Tarsney a revolver , took one himself , and

Sympathetic people were found here and
everything possible was done to relieve the

the state officials and to the family here
and the welcome news was received that a
special train was on the way to carry him
home.
About 4 o'clock the train arrived , bearing
Mrs. Tarsney. the eldest daughter. Susie , and
Mrs. Batchell , wife of General Tarsney's law
partner. When the affecting meeting was
over all haste was made to Denver , which
was reached a little after 5 o'clock. The gen
eral was taken home and everything that
medical skill and affection could suggest
was done. When first seen General Tarsney
appeared prostrated , but was sitting up In
the reception room. Conversation at first
was evidently carried on by supreme effort.
Graduallly the sufferer became more ani

Manager Babcock of the stock yards com
pany received a telegram announcing that
the Rock Island management had reduced
the rate on cattle from Indian Territory
quite materially. Only a short time ago a
differential rate on all roads from Texas to
this market was put Into effect which made
the rate 5 cents higher to Omaha than to
Kansas City. This rate did not affect the
cattle shipped from Indian Territory , how
ever , and the last order is the one that will-
please the packers here. The great bulk of
the cattle are grazing In the territory and
the Rock Island cut will open up a new field
for cattle shippers to this market.
