TOY RAILR0AD IN COURT
Kovel Method Used to Explain n Car
Coupler Caae to the Supreme
Court Justices.
Is a locomotive tender a car within the
meaning of the car coupler act 7 That Is
tha question which the supreme court of
the United Btates will have to decide In
a case argued before it a few weeks ago.
The act 'provides that within certuln per
iods certain percentages of the locomotive
and cars of all railroads In the United
States which are engaged In Interstate com
merce shall be equipped with automatlo
couplers, but nothing Is said about the ten
ders of the locomotives. Thla point waa
raised by counsel for the Southern Pacific
Railroad company in a suit brought In Utah
by W. O. Johnson, a brakoman, who In
attempting to couple a locomotive and a
dining car with a link and pin had his hand
so badly mashed that It had to be ampu
tated. Johnson sued for 820,000 da magea. He was
nonsuited, the trial Judge holding that the
locomotive tender, being neither a cur nor
a locomotive, waa not required by the car
coupler act to be equipped with an auto
matic coupler. He held also that as the
dining car to which Johnaon was coupling
the tender wus on a siding und not in use
It wns not then in Interstate commerce,
and that the Tact that the car was equipped
with an automatic coupler which did not
couple with the tender automatically was
not material.
This judgment waa affirmed by the cir
cuit court of appeals. Johnson, at the in
stance of tho Interstate Commerce com
mission, brought the rasa to the supreme
court. The chief Interest of the commis
sion In the caae Is that If the judgment
were allowed to stand the effect of the car
coupler act would be practically destroyed.
While the act makes no distinction aa to
the style of automutlc coupler with which
the care and engines are to be equipped,
most of the railroads have adopted tha
Jauney, or M. C. B. coupler, which wua rec
ommended by a convention of inastcr car
builders of the varloua roads. The South-
era Pacltie, however, adopted the Miller
coupler, which docs not work automatically
with the M. C. B. coupler and consequently
when It becomes necessary to couplo cara
equipped .with different couplers, an old
fashioned lluk and pin must be used.
It is asserted by tne Interstate Commerce
commission that coupling odd coupler with
the link and pin I more dangerous than
where both cara have the old link and pin
coupler, and if the roads are permitted to
use coupler which' do not act automat
ical! with each other, the law is prac
tically a dead letter so far a it effect I
concerned. It, therefore, intervened In the
suit for danvagea Instituted by Johnaon,
and Solicitor General lioyt, on behalf of
the commlasion, took part in the argu
ments in the case.
An Interesting feature of the argument
wa the introduction of a working model
of cara equipped with the different cou
plers. Th cars were each about two feet
long and ran along a miniature section of
railroad, track placed on the desk In front
of th Justices.
While th operation of the couplers waa
.being explained the Justices at the far ends
of the bench left their chairs and gathered
around the model, watching with interest
the process of coupllns New Tork Run.,
During a Lull lu the Coavrraatlva.
"1 admired that last piece you played,
proressor, immensely," said Mrs. 0"wel'.
"It bad a kind of wild freedom about lb
you know, a sort of Bet up and a that
JiiM suited me. Was It a composition of
your own?"
"Madam." frigidly responded the emi
nent musician who had been hired for the
occasion, "I waa putting a new E string
on my violin." Chicago Tribune.
PROGRESS IN GASOLINE MOTOR
Eastern Railroad Offlplale Making
Extended Testa with n
Sew Device.
The new gasollno tnotor built by the
Jamestown, Chautauqua A Lake Erie rail
way aa an experiment for a substitute for
the steam locomotive for express trains haa
been Installed tinder a passenger car of the
observation type, and la dally undergoing
tests along the main line of the railway.
The operator declare that It will run
ninety miles an hour, and although It haa
not yet been opened up, It has been
speeded up to more than sixty mllea an
hour.
President Chase, a former New York
Central man, and one of the most progress
Ive railroad men In this vicinity, has sup
ported the gasoline theory from the flrat,
and now that his ear has achieved such
great success, he Is confident that great
things are to be expected from the gasoline
motors. President Chase prophesies that
In a few years the railways of the country
will be using gasoline as the motive power
for fast trains.
One of the experts In charge maintains
that It is Impossible for a steam engine to
attain the marvelous speed possible with
a gasoline motor, owing to the fact that
the steam cylinder has to expand before the
piston shoots back, whereas In the gaso
line engine the exploding action Is almost
Instantaneous.
The motor has eight water cooled cylin
ders arrangd between the wheels of a
truck little different from the ordinary, ex
cept In weight and strength. The car Is
equipped with large water tanks and a
gasoline tank.
When the motor was put upon the tracks
early In the summer, before the car had
been finished, there was much scoffing
among trolley and steam railway men. It
was held to be Impracticable on account of
the difficulty of starting precisely. Ex
perts have put on Improved appliances so
that now the car Is controlled as easily as
an automobile.
The success which has attended the trials
has convinced the local transportation pro
moters that a new motive power Is to be
reckoned with. They have been quick to
see Its possibilities in developing the east
side of Cflautauqua lake by making pos
sible a more frequent train service. The
hotel men and cottage owners at the re
sorts are also jubilant. Not only this, but
experts claim that the gasoline-driven cam
can be operated for 6 cents a mile cheaper
than one electrically driven.
The cars that have been constructed by
the New York Central for use on the Dun
kirk, Allegheny Valley St Pittsburg be
tween Falconer and Warren, Pa., are prac
tically completed, only a few day remain
ing, according to officials, before they will
be In operation. A trolley line is In prog
ress of construction from vVarren to James
town, and the wise ones claim to have In
elde Information that the gasoline cars are
to bo put on a frequent schedule In compe
tition with the electric cars.
The excellent showing made by the
Jamestown, Chautauqua A Lake Erie mo
tor has convinced many local transporta
tion men that the trolleys of this vicinity
will In time be superseded by the gasoline
motors. Rochester Post-Express.

OMAHA, Nov. 19. 194.
WHEAT Today' market for wheat and
corn were on the toboggan slide and there
was not recovery in the closing nours.
Wheat was especially wak and the man
ner In which the bears pounded and
charged, and charged again, took all the
stamina from the hull, nnd left them
capable of making only feeble response.
It was a case of reocints hearinc heavily
on the market. At all points the receipts
were liberal, advice were favorable to the
bears and the pressure was such that the
bulls could not resist it. Prics on cash
grain sustained even a more severe de
cline than did future dellverv prices. The
one weatner Is having the eneci n nr-t-Ing
the receipts large at all primary poInU
and the street is s-ronlne dally more
skeptical of th short crop bugaboo. More

was reached verv early In the day and
buyers of puts Friday were the chief buy
ers, although It was reported that Valen
tine, Armour's floor representative, win
acquiring considerable wheat to fill shorts
put out during the earlier days of the
weeK. Then, too, there wns consmeraoi
tnking of profits by short sellers and
stop-loss selllnc by longs.
From Chicago came reports of wagers
that the car lot receipts of wheat In Chi
cago during the month of Deci-mber would
average over K00 cars dally and that the
total arrivals would reach zn.wi.crio rmsuej".
Cash wheat In Omaha was practically '(
20 lower. A atudy of the sale, nnd test
of weight will evidence this.
In Chicago December wheit opened at
81104 and broke to 81 0XH. or 2Vo, with
no recovery; May, 81. 11 1-09, a 2c loss.
July was Hie lower.
COK.N The receipts at Chicago were very
heavv and over 700 ears are promised for
Monday. The quality Is better than might
be expected and the arrivals for the list
four davs have exceeded the shipments by
over 900.000 bushels. From every point
comes the story of fine corn and lots of It.
Arter making a bold bid ror nign pri'-es

pleasure of witnessing a good break. De-

Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board ot Trade.
CHICAOO, Nov. If Argentine advices
claiming that there will be a mammoth
crop In that country were parity repons.ble
for a break of over 2c a bufhel In wheat
prices tinlay. Continued heavy movement
of the wheat crop in the northwest an
additional bearish factor. At the cl e De
cember wheat was down 2c. May was off
2S'!2'e. December corn shows a l as of
1S-. oats are off o, and provisions 24
Continued decline marked dealings in the
whet pit. At the opening the market was
Influenced by the Indifferent tone of cables,
foreign arsln markets being lower in the
face of a fnlr advance here yesterday. An
other Influence that contributed even moie
to the Initial weaknesa wa a report frem
Argentine stating that prevailing ixceilmt
weather Insured a bumper crop of when!.
In this connection the fact was pointed out
that there was no diminution shown In the
movement of the rroD In the norihwept. re
ceipt todav being much larger than for
the corresponding dHV last week. Belling
was general at the start and opening prices
were at a lose. Kecemper oeing nown o ai
81.1."!. May
wa on VsVc to vjio a i
i'4fi1.1H4. Houses with northwestern
connections were prominent among the roll
ers. The decline brought out numerous stop
loss orders. Just before the close December
sold at 81 otH. a fall of :'c from last night's
eliding figure... May went down to 8109.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equai to
39,123 bushels. Primary receipts were 1.178,
000 bu., compared with 1.359. iW bu. a year
ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re
liorted receipts of 849 caJ-s. against 6o2 cara
last week and 910 cars a year ago.
The feature of trading In corn was heavy
liquidation of December, resulting In a
sharp decline In the price of that delivery.
Weakness of wheat had much influence In
bringing out the pelllr.g orders, but pros
pecta of greatly Increased local receipts
were a factor of equal Importance. Lower
cables and good weather Hided with the
bears. December opened 'njiW lower at
49i,f!494c, sold off to 4Xe and closed at the
bottom. May ranged between 4oSfi45V(iC anil
45Sc, and closed at the low point. Local
receipts were 61 cars, with 2 of contract
grade. . .
A remarkablv steady tone prevailed In
the oats market considering the weakness
of other grains. Commission houses and
cah houses were fair bidders, but offer
ings were very light. December opened un
changed at 28'nC. sold off to and cireel
t the low point. After ranging betwetn
Sic and 31Vu31:1,c, May cloBed at 31c. Local
receipts were 82 cars.
Provisions were HfTected by the plump in
wheat nnd corn, an easier tone being man
ifest throiiRhout the sewlon. At the clo
January pork was down Uc at 112.474.
Lard and ribs were each 2ie lower at 87.00
and 8.47Vi. respectively.

be quoted from fo.90 to to.4, fair to good
o.oo to 86.76 and the warmed-up and short
fed varieties sold from 33.7a to 84.75.
The demand for western range beef steers
has been In good shape ail tne week and
no particular change In prices 1ms taken
place. On some days the market Wds a
little stronger than others and of course
the belter grades were In the greatest de
mand and showed the most strength. Even
the commoner kinds, however, are Be. 1. tig
right at steady pi Ices as compared w.th a
week ago. Good to choice grades may be
quoted from 34.00 to 84.85. fair to good 13 U0
to 83.90 and common Kinds irom .uo uown.
The cow maiKet is aiso mucn tne s.ime
as it was a week ago. Prices, if any.h ng,
were a little stronger unill Friday, when
packers became bearish, claim. ng that the
market here was too high as compared
with other points, and they took off fully a
dlr Tom the price of the belter gruuea.
As . .upared with a week ago there Is not
enough change In ruling prices to be
worthy of mention. Good to choice grades
of grass cows may be quoted from 32.90 to
83.25, fair to good 32.25 to 32.iu and canneis
and cutters from 81.50 to 12.25. A few
corn feds are beginning to show up In the
receipts, but unless very choice tire sell
ing little or no better than desirable
grassers.
The demand for stockers and feeders has
been fairly good all the week and prices
are, if anything, a little stronger than they
were a week ago, where the quality is sat
isfactory. The commnn kinds, however, are
only about steady. Good to choice grades
may be quoted from 8350 to 34.00, fair to
food 83 25 to 83.50 and the commoner kinds
rom 83.15 down. Representative sales:

HOGS The
hog market continued it
downward course this morning and the de
cline hero amounted to 246jc. Truding
was fairly nctlve, as salesmen saw 110 op
portunity of preventing the decline, but
several trains were late In arriving, which
delayed the market to quite an extent.
The bulk of the hogs sold at 84.624tj-t.65,
with the choicer loads largely at 34.674
and a top nt 34.70. All the early arrivals
sold In good season, but when the lute
trains orrived the more urgent orders had
been filled and some of the buyers were
rather bearish, a few of the late sales being
down to 84.60.
For the week receipts have been about
7.O1M) head In excess of last week, but about
2,000 bead less than for the same week
of hiBt year. The tendency of prices at all
points bus been decidedly downward and
a net loss of 154T20C Is noted. Representa

BHEEP There were several cars of sheep
reported this morning, but they were feed
ers, and no quotable change In the mar
ket took place. For the week receipts show
an increase over lust week of about 6,ou0
bead, but a decrease as compared with the
same week of laat year amounting to about
20,i0 heud.
The uiuiket on fat sheep and lambs lias
not chunked much this week und us com
pared wlili the close of last week cun best
be described by calling It steady to a dime
lower. The weakness has been principally
on ewes, as wethers, yearlings and lambs
have changed hands freely all Ihe week
ut jvuit atMiut steady prices. Common grass
ers and warnied-iip corn-feds have of
course been neglected tu some extent and
In some cases may have been hurd to sell
at steady prices. A few native sheep and
lambs are arriving which command quite
u ureitiliiin. but fed Westerns and the Let-

rmics ot grrMer are selling III very
l r,e priro nnn
'U dcuisud Iw tteuvr Uu btvu fully
equal to the supply all the week and each
dav's offerings have been well cared for.
The market for the week can snfely be
quoted steady to strong and active.
