Conditions Seem to Point to Division of
Power on Union Pacific.
OBJECfT TO RESTORE PUBLIC CONFIDENCE
sHroBa; Men, It la Reported, Are to
Added to the RxeentlTe Com
mittee aind Share the
v Responsibility.
To change the Union Pacific from a one
man road to a road governed In (act by
several of the more prominent men In rail
road and financial circles la Bald to be the
probuble plan of E. II. Harrlman, the
"one man" himself.
This change 'la to he brought about be
cause of the development In the affaire of
the t'nlon PacMc during the last six
months, or rather from the time of the
declaration of the August dividend to the
time of the Interstate Commerce Investi
gation, or hearing. This opinion Is aald to
be shared by Influential and powerful bank
ing Interests In both this country and
Europe.
Hy this la not mennt that Mr. Harrlman
Is to be deposed or that he will resign nor
Is It thought he Is entirely nut of sympathy
with the move or with the conviction that
the systetn Is too extensive and too much
In the public eye to be a one man line.
It Is seen to be desirable from every point
of view that the responsibilities for such
of lts"'cts" as' afYh'et 'the- people' generally
i be divided among us many strong men as
possible. This will be accomplished by
strenRthenlnt! the executive committee of
the t'nlon Pacific.
No doubt Is expressed but that to the
present t'me Mr. Harrlman has been the
dictator of the ftolon Pacific. With strong
men on the noard of directors his prom
inent associates have felt, apparently, that
there was little reason to seriously oppose
the wishes of the man who was able In
a few short years to lift the road out of
bankruptcy Into the ranks of the leading
roads of this or any other country.
Power Comes with Sneeess.
His Success In bettering the physical con
dition of the road so rapidly brought Mr,
Harrlman Into a position of absolute power,
such as has never been possessed In an
other railroad administration. Although
his associates were most of them better
known and far wealthier than he, the swift
work and glamor of his success brought n
ready second from them In his most nm
hltlous plans, even though at trus'tlme they
doubted the wisdom of the course.
Most of the plans which are now being
carried out are Mr. Harrlman's own, and
It was his own project to strive to control
great roads, east and west, even after the
Northern Securities decision had made
most men cautious. Also In the case of the
huge dividend declarations on the t'nlon
Pacific and Southern Pacific last August
the directors did little more than formally
approve the move, a fact which he prac
tically admitted on the witness stand when
he said It was ths directors' fault If they
did not know what wns coming, a he hud
Intimated It to them.
Since the declaration of that dividend and
up to the time of the commission's hearing
It has been made plain to Wall street and
Europe, and probably to the fnlon Pacific
dlrectora, even Mr. Harrlman himself, who
auld as much recently In an Interview, that
his policy had had a bud effect upon the
minds of the people.
Cine of two plana prohably will be carried
out. Either a new directory will be elected
which will be more actlvnly associated In
handling the affairs of the t'nlon Pacific
or a larger directory will be chosen with
mors men who can give their time to direct
ing the affairs of the road.
rreaent Kieeotlie Board.
The Union Pacific's executive committee
consists of Mr. Harrlman, Henry C. Frlck,
Marvin Hughltt, Eobert S. Lovett and
Jumea StIUman. This committee, which Is
presumed to rule, with Mr. Harrlman, the
whole system, Is no lonuer considered ade
quate. Mr. Hughitt Is the president of the
Chicago & Northwestern railroad, with his
office in Chicago, and Mr. Stillman has
been compelled by poor health to spend

Colonel George B. M. Harvey, In the

from the hand that smote them, and lick
the boot whose Impact they have felt." He
referred also to the "peerless leader" who
"hobbles like a cripple In the wake of his
successful rival, gathering aa he goes the
few scraps that are left of his own falla

republicans who denounce Roosevelt In pri

HAUNTING S0NG0F THE WIRES
OrsTi and nay Hallnelnatlona Which
Prey I'pon Nerves of
Telegraphers.
One of the most annoying and curious
phenomena connected with the work of a
telegraph operator never la voluntarily
mentioned by the older men In the service.
If one of them Is asked about It he will
look bored, possibly a little scared, and
will pooh-pooh or make vlgoroua denial,
according to his own particular mood and
temperament. But If you can find your
way Into hla Inner confidence he will tell
you, with lowered voice and mysterious
mien, of the haunting song of the wires.
The hallucination, If that Is what It really
Is, doubtless has a nervous origin. The
man who sits for eight or ten hours a day
before a "sounder" and listens to the cease,
less ellck-cllck-cllckety-cllckety-cllck of the
countless messages that flash and click
their way to him and past him from the
four corners of the earth may be pardoned
If the monotony of It gets on his nerves
after a while. And when It does get on
his nerves there Is no telling just what
form his hallucination may take, nor to
what extent It may carry him.
But there Is one thing about the teleg
rapher's peculiar hallucination, If hallu
cination It Is, which wears ths color of
reasonableness. It is the fact that thous
ands of operators are affected In the same
way, and that the hallucination, or nervous
disorder, or whatever It may be, never
attacks one who haa not served many
years In the profession.
To tho outsider or to the novice there ab
solutely Is no lmprr4i!on of rhythm con
veyed by the broken clicking of the tele
graph sounder. It Is hard to Imagine any
thing less subject to the laws of stated and
recurrent abb and flow than the staccato,
Jerky, Irregularly Interrupted clicking of
the telegrapher's Instrument. And ths
statement that the constantly varying se
quence of dots and dashes necessary to
"send" the uncounted messages that hiss
snd whii across the wires day after day
can hold any stated , regularity of recur
rence Is enough to send the listener Into a
splutter of skepticism and ridicule. Yet
that Is the firm conviction of thousands of
experienced operators, who have spent their
working lives at the sounder and who are
men of good sense and Integrity.
Sometimes this sense of rhythm suggests
some particular melody, and In such ctses

dlepatch was deciphered It was sent to the
State department, and there followed a
long conference between Assistant Secre
tary Baron and Minister Corea of Nica
ragua, Information had been received
previously from Phillip Brown, secretary
of ths t'nlted Statea legation at Guate
mala, who has been negotlstlng between
Nicaragua and Salvador, and who Anally
secured the consent of President Flguera
to meet President Zelaya. This dispatch
left rather a haiy Impression as to the
representation Honduras Is to have at the
conference. Commander Doyle made It
clear that General Sierra of ths Honduras
provisional government Is to be command
ant of Amalapa. The conference between
Presidents Zelaya and Flguera will take
place at Amalapa or on board a United
States gunboat to be anchored at Amalapa.
The fact that a Honfluran general who was
not only a revolutionist, but one of the
candidates of the revolutionists for the
presidency sgalnst Bonllla, Is to be In com
mand at Amapala during the conference
Is regarded here as at least a partlol
recognition of the provisional government.
If this proves true, settlement of the dis
pute. It Is expected,' will be easily com
pleted. When the Doyle dispatch was sent
Amapala had not yet completed its sur
render. Commander Doyle estimated that
It would require about four days to accom
plish It.
The Salvadorean troops In Amapala, It
had been agreed, should embark for La
t'nlon, Salvador, taking with them all
officers, private property and side arms.
Bonllla to Go Abroad.
President Bonllla had not yet reached
the Chicago when Commander Doyle sent
his dispatch, but It waa stated that the
president waa expected and that he would
be taken to eome port outside of Central
America. President Zelaya demanded that
Bonllla be not permitted to land In Salvador
for fear that he would organlxe a forou
against Nicaragua and continue the fight
ing. It waa said further that arrangements are
now being made for the election of a con
stitutional president In Honduras.
The State department today received a
dispatch from United States Consul Philip
Brown at La Union, Honduras, saying a
peace conference would be held at the port
of Amapala between President Zelaya of
Nicaragua and President Flguera of Salva
dor Immediately upon ths surrender of
Amapala, which at the time the dispatch
was filed was expected momentarily. The
two presidents will meet In person and en
deavor to reach a settlement of the diffi
culties which Involved Nicaragua and Hon
duras In war and caused Salvador to be
