BASIS OF FIRST OBJECTIONS Allegation is Sat Forth That Decrease in Traffic Makes Enact ment a Burden. Washington American railways have made arrangements to comply with' the provisions of the "nine-hour law." The operation of the law will mean the employment by railroad com panies of several thousand additional, operators and the closing of a large number of small stations on the prin cipal systems. Discontinuing of rail way service at many points, it is thought, will induce at least temporary inconvenience to the traveling and shipping public in order to reduce ope rating expenses, which now seems ne cessary, the operating officials of the railways believe that this Is the. only way that they possibly can meet the situation with which they are con fronted. During the hearing of applications for an extension of the nine-hour law by the Interstate Commerce commis sion some astonishing statements were made by the operating officials of Important railways. A good many lines, owing to a reduction in their revenues and to their inability to com mand the cash necessary to meet their pay rolls, have been forced, during the last four months, almost to the point or asking for receivers. In the opin ion of railway officials, expressed at the hearing under oath and in private conversation, this condition does not seem to have been due to the enforce ment of regulative laws or to the in capacity of railway management Most, of the railway officials attribute the difficulty to the unfortunate banking situation, which developed last Sep tember. The railways did not feel that stringency in money until about the first: of November. -In fact, the month of October was one of the best in the history of the business of American railroading. "Then, without the slightest warn ing," as H. U. Mudge, vice president and general manager of the Rock Isl and system expressed it, "we were plunged from prosperity to adversity. A year ago our system could not handle the traffic offered us. Today we have 11,000 idle cars. Five months ago we suffered from a congestion of freight, now we suffer from a conges tion of empty, cars." What Is true of the Rock Island is true also of scores of other railroads. One railway official ventured the state ment that in the country today there were 300,000 idle freight cars, and one line which he instanced was declared to be hauling empty cars backward and forward because It had not yard room or sidings to accommodate them. TAMPA, FLA SUFFERS FIRE. it Fifty-five Acres of Tobacco Factories Burned.' Tampa, Fla.

The burned section included four large and one smaller. factory and nu merous restaurants, saloons and board ing houses, and over 200 dwelling? oc cupied by cigarmakers. Insurance is estimated at about half the loss. Gasoline Cars Approved. . St Paul. Minn.

The greatest drawback to the hog Industry which breeders in this coun try have to contend with is what 13 known as "hog cholera" and "swine plague." . Hog cholera is a highly coMaglous disease and unless checked is liable to carry off a great number of hogs in a very short time. . Mr. A. P. Williams, of Burnetts Creek, Ind., tells of an experience which he had with some hogs that had the cholera. "Five years ago," says Mr. Williams, "I was in the em ploy of Mr. J. D. Richardson, Lafay ette, Ind., as his barn foreman. Some fine hogs that I was feeding took the cholera. I gave them Sloan's Lini ment and did not lose a hog.

A power greater than that of kings seems to .have been wielded by the little group of thoughtful men who gathered at the Fenway residence of W. N.

OLD SURGEON Found Coffee Caused Tremble, Hands fa The surgeon's duties require clear Judgment and a steady hand.

When I saw plainly the bad effects of coffee, I decided to stop it and three years' ago I prepared some Postum, of which I had received a sample. "The first cupful surprised me. It was nrild, soothing, delicious. At this time I gave some Postum to a friead who was in a similar condition to mine, from the use of coffee. "A fewdays after. J met him and, he was full of praise for Postum, de claring he would never return to' cof fee but stick to Postum. We then or dered a full supply and within a short time my nervousness and consequent trembling, as well as Insomnia, disap peared, blood circulation became nor mal, no dizziness nor heat flashes. "My friend became a Postum en thusiast, his whole family using it ex clusively. "It would be the fault of the one who brewed the Postum, if it did not taste good when served. "The best food may be spoiled if not properly made. Po3tum should be boiled according to directions on the j pkg. Then it is ajl right anyone caa rely on it It ought to become the ( national drink."
