The audience that greeted Mr. Frederick SrhofT and Mrs. Edward Orlce. national president and sec retary of the National Congress of Moth eri. at th. Flrat Congregational church Friday afternoon, indicated decidedly that they have not. There has been no branch organization of the society In Nebraska and as Mra. Bchoff and Mrs. Orlce were passing through the city Friday they asked that a meeting be arranged at which they might present the aim and work of the organization. While practically all of the women'a organization of the city were Invited and urged to attend, only 10 women were present. Rev. H. C. Herring opened tha meeting with prayer and Mra. Mary O. Andrew extended a welcome. Mr. H. J. Tenfold presided. Mra. Bchoff was the first speaker and he told of the condition that necessitated surh work aa the Mother' Congrea Is doing, ifter a vocal solo by Mr. A. L. Sheets, Mr. Orlce spoke of other phases of the work and the organization, all of which wa more or less familiar to the women and 1 being covered by them In their varlou cluba. At the conclusion Mr. Rheta Chllde tsnrr of New York City, the chairman of the Industrial committee of the General Fed eration, wa Introduced and spoke briefly of tha effort to be made by the women this fall and winter to lnteret tha repre sentative In congress from th variou late in passing a bill carrying an appro priation for an official investigation by the Department of Labor of the industrial con dition of women and children In the United State.

Unwilling to de part without effecting an organization, Mra Bchoff called the meeting to order again and asked that a temporary chairman and secretary might be selected. Thl the women reluctantly did, Mr. George Payne being elected to the first office and Mrs. Edward Johnson to the other. At this Junc ture air. Andrew arose and discouraged any further attempt at organization at that time, saying th small attendance preaent represented an already heavily taxed or ganization of women, while th mother most In need of th help of the congrea were not present. Mr. H. M. Bushnell of Lincoln, president of th Nebraska Federation of Women' Club, who waa present, was called upon and she too discouraged further organiza tion among the club women who were al ready covering the essential of the con gress' work and have little time for further responsibility.

Practical results obtained by at least one great railroad system of the United States are now conclusively deaionstrating that the objectionable private car ystem even as applied to sleeping and parlor cars Is not always as necessary aa Interested per sons ask the public to believe, and so, If an evil. 1 an avoidable one. With the assembling of congress this question of ownership of car by other than the operating railroad, together with the abuses and discrimination which are worked through and under cover of th private car system, 1 certain one again live issue. Private car are of from the ordinary coal car. rlth th railroad-owned cars, ex ited lettering, through the re frigerator type and on up to the highest peclallzed form, the Pullman sleeping car. And here, at it best, and with It mo nopoly of one of th moat Important tranche uf transportation sen-ice almost complete, It Is being successfully proved that th private car system can be dis pensed with to the advantage both of th railroad and the traveling public generally. The Chi ago, Milwaukee A Bt. Paul rail way is unique among the many railroads wading out of Chicago, is that It own and operate It own Bleeping and parlor cars. For fifteen years thl company, with a railroad syster.i now comprising 7.13 miles of line located In eight states, ha got along entirely without th Pullman company. Thl It ha don with notable satisfac tion to the traveling public. It lioepwtg cars are built with berths four Inches luuger, as i-ll aa wider and higher, than the Pullman standard.

Unable to stretch out hi C feet I inches in any Pullman car berth, he determined that his company should provide sleeping car comfortable for the man of any dimension. The Chicago, Milwaukee and Bt. Paul railway being ao located aa to have pretty regular passenger traffic throughout the year, finds Itself better off In having Its own equipment. It now has eighty-three sleeping cars, twenty-one parlor cars and twenty-nine cafe and composite observa tion car. Concerning the Independent position of th company a regard sleep ing cars, II. R. Williams, general manager. in a letter Just received, says: "After providing for salaries, mainte nance. Interest and other usual charges, our leeplng car business shows a small profit. Our average sleeping car mileage per day 1 2S.2U4 mile. Thl company ha operated It own sleeping car equipment since 1890. Experleno ha not developed any serlou objection to th syatem, and th fact that we continue to operate our own cars is evi dence of our satisfaction with th plan." Thus, instead of paying money to the Pullman company (or th use of sleeping cars, the Chicago, Milwaukee & Bt. Paul railway 1 getting aom Income from this branch of the transportation business. With It virtual monopoly, the Pullman company Is able to drive hard bargain with the rallroadsj For years its practice waa to charge them 1 cents per car mile, aay, 130 for one trip from New York to Chloago. Mora recently an average for car earnings wa worked out. and this 1 now generally made th basi for contract, th railroad agreeing to pay a certain lura (virtually a guarantee of profit to th Pullman com pany), which payment 1 lessened by th amount the car earnings exceed an agreed Bum. The Pennsylvania railroad no longer pays the Pullman company anything; but this is only slnt th last contract wa mad and because the profits of sleeping car operation on the heavily patronised Penn sylvania lines are exceptionally large. Bo far a 1 known, no other railroad enjoy so favorable contract. In all rase the railroad using Pullman cars haul them free of charge and in cas of wreck make good the loss. The Pull man company builds and maintains th car and pay it conductor and porters. In return It gets all the receipts and. be sides, a virtual subsidy, more or less large, from th railroad, with the exception Just noted. On a run from Now Tork to Chicago It is calculated that car receipts would average about (75. Assuming round trip is made every four days, this yields an income of IC.S2S per annum on a car costing, aay. C0.(X4 against this Income must be charged maintenance and deterioration. J. J. Hill, president of the Great North ern rallwsy, which also operates Its own sleeping cars, holds the view that a rail road should be complete In ltelf. Before the senate committee last spring talking on isle regulation, Mr. Hill aald: "I have made one rule that If anybody working for the company ran buy or use anything that Is In ar.y way connected .with the company with a profit for himself he can make the profit for the company, and we will not have divided er'lce."

Motor car No. 1 was more of an experi ment, although It is performing regular dslly service on a branch from Kearney to Calloway, alxty-flve miles, but motor car No. I is nearlng closer to the Idea of Mr. MrKeen and Mr. Mohler as to what is wanted for the branch line service. Mr. Hubbell. a locomotive expert of Chi cago, aald: "I cannot find words to express my ad miration for this car. Six years ago when I ii the first motor ear which wa con structed I was struck with the idea and said at that Urn that within the next twenty-five year all suburban and treet cars would b propelled by their own power. I helped to Install the Council B'.ufTs-Ornaha line and am conversant with all sorts of cars, but McKeen has th right Idea. It is all right and a success. F. A. Nash, president of the local electric light company and western agent of the Milwaukee road, was also enthusiastic over the car and wanted to buy it from McKeen. He aald: "McKen will solve th problem of local traffic and has a car her which is fast ap proaching the proper thing. When h gets th larger one built he will start the rail way world to talking about him more than it is now." The trip to Valley was enjoyed by all. The car 1 o constructed that the ventila tion is perfect and no odor from the engine whatever gets to the passengers. No record was made for the entire distance as th road 1 quite congested at thl season of the year and several stops were made for order, but there were stretches on tha run when Mr. McKeen let out a few kink and the register as well as several stop watches showed that the car was spinning along at the rate of sixty-three mite an hour. No trouble wa experienced in climbing the hill from the Omaha station to th summit, which ia th steepest stretch of road on the Union Pacific until the Sherman hill I reached. Mr. Mohler wa so pleased with the suc cess of the car that he has instructed Mr. McKeen to proceed with the construc tion of two new car with engines of 2u0 horse power, the engine on motor No. 1 being half that. The new car will be con structed on a different plan from the prea ent motor. A trailer will be used to haul th passengers and the motor car con structed to carry the engine, th light plant, a baggag room and a mall section. n ork on the will be begun as soon material can be secured. Everyone was of the opinion that th motor car wa destined to run the locomo tive out of business on local traffic, because of the lesser cost of operation and th fewer men required to handle th train. One of th most notable features of th operation of th car was th total absence of Jar in both starting and stopping. Trolley car as well as steam car come up with a sudden Jerk and there Is also a Jolt at the start, but the motor car was both Btarted ani. stopped by Mr. McKeen without the allghest Jar. Mr. McKeen waa at tb throttle during the ehtlr trip. These cars are built under General Man ager Mohler's Instructions, whose confidence and practical suggestions are said to have been largely responsible tor the building and ultimate success of the cars.
