Probable Gain in Freight Business Not Definate Enough Data Upon Which to Run Road.—Lengthy Hearing Begun. Raleish.—Freight Traffic Manager L. Green of the Southern Railway was on the stand nearly thi'ee hours in the intrastate freight rate hearing and scarcely more than ^ot started in the presentation of his evidence, it is said. He following lines of evi dence desi;;ned to show that the Southern’s present freight rate reve nue cannot stand the big cuts pre scribed in the Justice act through applications of the Minnesota rates, and is developing an exhaustive pre sentation of Carolina freight condi tions compared with Minne.sota and other territories. Led by (Jeneral Counsel Thom, he asserted that in great freight sections of the more thickly populated sec tions of the country where rates are now some lower than irt North Caro lina, definite movements for increases in rates are pending before the Inter state Commerce Commission with urgent approval by great Commercial and shipping organizations. It required a couple of hours earl ier in the day .to complete the testi mony of Vice President ;uid Auditor Plant of the Southern Railway. Mr. Piant'.s evidence was in the line of shov.ing method.s of keeping the ac counts of llif Southern as to the valu ation:-’ of their property. He testified that there are inune- diaiely ahead of the SoHthern non profit yielding exp(^nditures in tlii:; i'.tate aggrf'gating $:^.412.000 and on V I'.c'e ;;yste'n of 10,000.

The company has sold its bonds since reorganization at a net loss ol $12,r»00.000, and the bonds are now under the present freight and pa.-^- senger rate revenxie conditions com manding only 72 to TH on the bond market. To reduce the net revenue from $441,000 to $30,000 for tliis state, as the application of the proposed re duced rates would do, would have tlie ('ffecl of still further depressing the iinancial ability of the company to mainiaiii an eflicient service, he said. Tlie final witness by the Southern Railway in the 'ntrastate freight rate hearing before the Rate Commission was Assostant ('hief Engine«>r T. P. Gatlin, whose special work is main tenanec of way. His testimony was a mass of figures showing the condition of the North Carolina I'nes of t]ie Southern and what is n<'co.^sary tc bring them up to standard condition. He represented to the comini.^sion that it will retiuire $20.000.0(>0 to put all the line in standard condition. The Reason. William J. Burns, at a banquet in New York, told a number of detective I stories. “And then ^here was Lecoq,” said 1 Mr. Burns. “Lecoq, late one night,! was pursuing his homeward way ■ when, from a dark, mysterious-Iooking house set in a weed-grown^garden, he heard loud shouts and, roars of— •‘Murder! Oh, heavens! Help! You’re killing me! Murder!” “It was the work of an instant for Lecoq to vault the crumbling fence, tear through the weedy garden and thunder at the door of the mysterious house. “A young woman appeared. ■“What's wanted?’ she asked po litely. " T heard dreadful cries and yells,’ panted Lecoq. ‘Tell me what is wrong.’ “The young girl blushed and an swered with an embarrassed air: “ ‘Well, sir, if you must know, ma’a putting a patch on pa’s trousers and he's got ’em on,’ ” “Pyrros." Jane Addams, while walking in South Halsted street the other day, was approached by an excited woman, evidently a Greek. The woman, un able to talk English, was gesticulating fl'antically and pointing to a house in Ewing street. “Pyrros!” she exclaimed. “Pyrros!” “Yes?” said Mi«s Addams gently. “Pyrros!” repeated the woman, tug ging at the other's sleeve. Finally a great light broke upon Miss Addams. “Pyrros” is the Greek woM meaning “firo,” and the woman was simply trying to tell hei' that her house was on lire. An alarm was sent in. The blaze proved to be only a small ohe and the tire department experienced no difii- culty in putting the “pyrros” out.— Chicago Inter Ocean.
