The Chicago Tribune has an account filling - ;
two columns descriptive of the hirat flIng i

Chicago and 11nenapols. shortening the
time one hour. As heretofore however the
train Is held In Chicago tl 3 o'clocle In

public expense , as part at the
publc ( lart Private cnr-
rler s 'stem of the Chicago moring dailies .
the one hour of time gained being secured
" . "
tn the "run.
But this very account In one of the principal -
clpal Chicago morning dailies for whose
irivate service the goverm nt donates Im-
mense Bums annually . notllhstnndln
many suppressions of tact. shows clearly
how the fast mal could leave Chicago at
least two hours earlier . even without hasten-
lug the fast mal from New York , as could
easily he done The Tribune says : _
" ) Ial trauma leave Chicago for this place
at 6aO : ! I. , nnd nt 10:30 : p. m. They bring
most of the Chicago letter mal and jirac.

In other words , the commercial mal of
Chicagothe business hour closing at 4
o'clock In the afternoon-is collected and
rlsIateh.d hv the ordlnai'v mul trains
which - leave - Chicago fromn G:30 : to ' :3'm : : .
Not only so , hut the same trains carry out
of Chicago all the mal tram the east save
only that hrought In tram New York hy the
fast mal train over the 11chlgan Southern ,
which arrives at ChIcago at 1:55 : p. m.
1 > ' the 'rlhune's own stateiuient which Is
true In this respect. the fast mal trains
out of Chicago west do not all canont carry
commercial and huslness correspondence .
That has all been carried ont on the regular
mail trins each day which leave tram five
and one-hiatt to eight nail one-half hours
,
earlier than the fast mul , which leaves ut
3 o'eloclt u. m.
There Is just one train later from the
east , which arrIves at Chicago nt l : p.

ferrell from It to the fast mall out of Chi-
euto vest In much less than an hour.
\h ) ' . tlueii are the fast mail trains held
In Chicago till 3 o'eloclt In the morning ?
There II just one reason , vlz.1 : To serve
ns parts of the J1rl"nte carrier system of
the Chleao morning dailies . There Is imb-
solulely no other reason
Yet the fast ml\1 Is justified IW the postal
authoritIes on the 1:101\1 that I expedites
the carrying of business nnd commercial
correpoiuiemic'e . which It does nnt carry at
miii . told which Is carried out at Chicago hy
o

\Vhat's the use at a mall train to carry
huslness anti commercial letters which It
does not carry , anti whlh are carrIed

more than one-hal of the volume , deal with

Chapter 12 deals with the ceonomle and
ethical aspects of Improved housing. Facts

Inues , "that the rents paid for InferIor ac-
commodatons are equal to anti oren exceed
those charged for model tenements

and earning good commercial returns. The
rentpayer Is , therefore , In a position to prop-
erly reward any effort made to Improve his
living surroundIngs , and capialsts and pub-

the bonn tide laboring populaton and pro-
vide them wih good homes. Dealng with

queslot. and must be considered as a sep-
arato phase of the problem. "
Model lodging houscs everywhere have
turned out to b3 thoroughly renumeratve
Investments. The experience of Glasgow may
be studied with great profit. More than this ,
they are of Incalculable benefit In prevenl-
