Washington Post. In the senatorial cloakroom yesterday a group of senators were discussing the probable time of the final adjournment of Congress. One senator insisted that Congress would be here until July. "Oh. my!" sled Senator Depew, "I see I will have to do it." "Do what?" asked a senator.

"Make a speech." said Depew. "I don't know anything else that will break up the session quicker trJan the fear of a speech by me." MONEY WELL EXPENDED KIIKAT REDUCTION IX THE COST OF FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION. The Xm Chlcngo-CInclnnntl Line to He HuimlnK Trains July 1 Generl and Personal Note. Financiers interested in the Pennsylvania lines claim that the management never disburses a dollar In dividends without putting another dollar of the current earnings back Into improvement of the property, and it Is said to be largely due to this management that the Pennsylvania has been able to pay cash dividends to its stockholders uninterruptedly for nearly fifty years. The New York Commercial Advertiser says: "The tons carried since 1SC5 increased over per while the ton miles Increased over 2,503 per cent, and the earnings from to 04,0.432.

No better example could be given of the axiom that self-interest alone forces railroads to give the public the benefit of every possible decrease in rates, for whatever loss the railroads sustain in the lower rates is more than offset by the increased traflic movement thereby made The fact that the Pennsylvania Railroad has been able to reduce its average expenses per ton mile from 2.347 cents in 18C5 to 0.364 cents in l'JOO has been largely due to the liberal manner in which it has used current earnings for the improvement and betterment of its property. There is not another railroad company of anything like Its size In the country which has been more liberal In this respect, or which has more consistently continued this policy through good and bad years alike. In a recent analysis of New York Central it was shown that during the last two years of the current earnings of that company had been used for extraordinary betterments and improvements. While this is a good showing, yet it cannot compare with that made by the Pennsylvania Railroad or any of its controlled properties. Increased operating efficiency and capacity enabled the company to reduce expenses per ton mile cents in thirty-five years.

More than the entire benefit of this decrease was given to the public, as shown by the decrease of 2.175 cents in the ton-mile rate during the same period." New Powerful Headlight. A practical demonstration of the utility of a new departure, which. It is claimed by railway officials, will effectively prove the solution in a large degree of the railway collision problem, was made Wednesday night on the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul Railroad near Chicago. The device consists of an exceedingly powerful headlight, which not only perfectly illuminates the track -with an Intensely brilliant shaft of light for a of a mile, but also embraces the striking and novel feature of a beam of light of almost equal brilliancy penetrating over TOO feet above, which can be clearly seen ten miles distant.

It is thereby possible for approaching trains to absolutely locate each other by this vertical shaft of light, though miles apart, and it is this feature which railroad officials claim will eliminate the possibility of collision. This vertical beam will. In hilly country (specially, where curves in the track are numerous, so positively fix the location of trains that nothing but carelessness on the part of 'engineers will permit a collision. The apparatus consists of a powerful electric arc headlight, a dynamo and steam motor, all of which occupy the space on the locomotive usually devoted to the headlight. One of the heaviest passenger engines on the Chicago.

Milwaukee St. Paul Railway, especially equipped with this headlight, drew a train out of Chicago Wednesday night and a practical demonstration" of the working apparatus was given, under the supervision of Charles W. Adams, formerly assistant general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania system. At a distance of half a mile the telegraph poles and frame-wurk of the semaphores were clearly defined, while the trackbed itself was distinctly visible for one mile. Straight above the locomotive a "of light as thick as a man's body penetrated the darkness and persons posted ten miles reported that it was clearly distinguishable.

This is en entirely new departure In headlight illumination and railway signals. It is further proposed to convey signals of distress or other communications when trouble occurs between telegraph points by use of colored glass to color the vertical ray of lisht. Among those aboard the special were H. R. Williams, general manager of the C.

M. St. C. J. Underwood, assistant general manager; C.

W. Woodward, general superintendent; F. A. Miller, general passenger agent, and J. F.

Gibson, division superintendent. It was their unanimous opinion that the headlight was thoroughly practical and would become one of the future requisites in railroading. The Commission Question Ajcnin. Lake steamship lines and the railroads are engaged in a struggle over the paj--ment of commissions, which Is likely to sever the friendly relations that have hitherto existed between them. A secret meeting was held in Chicago yesterday at which were representatives of the passenger departments of nearly all the Western and Eastern lines and of all steamship lines.

The railroad men insisted that the payment of commissions by steamship lines shO'iM cease, and the threat was made that If it did not the railroads would withdraw their connections with the lake transportation companies. This would mean that the i ticket offices throughout the country would throw out the tickets of the lake lines and refuse to sell them. That this would be a severe blow to the lake lines Is admitted. The general passenger agents, it is said, are standing firm on the proposition, and assert that the payment of commissions must cease. Neither side thus far has given ground, and the matter rests where it was previous to the meeting.

The representatives of the lake lines insist that as their season is shcrt and competition is sharp they must pay commissions or fail to get living business. Edwin Hawley Resigns. Edwin Hawley, Eastern traffic manager in New York of the Southern Pacific Railroad since ISM, has resigned. lie was forced to give up this office because of the increased demand on his time of other interests. He is also president of the Minneapolis St.

The length of railroads now equipped with block signals is 3.Co7 miles, an increase of 50 per cent, over one year ago, and before the close of the year 4,000 miles will be provided with block signal service. The railroad branch of the Young Men's Christian Association at Fort Wayne is one of the most prosperous in the State and has undtr contemplation the erection of a new and larger building on a site it owns in the best part of that city. The organization is eighteen years old and at its monthly meeting this week received nineteen new members. A dispatch from San Francisco to the effect that a merger of the leading express companies, including the Adams-, American, United States and Wells-Fargo companies, might be arranged was shown to President Weir, of the Adams Express Company. Mr.

Weir said the report was not correct. Such a thing had not been contemplated, he said, so faras he knew. The Pennsylvania, New Jersey New York Railroad Company, with a capital of $100,000, was Incorporated under the laws of New Jersey yesterday. Its object is the construction of a tunnel under the Hudson river between Jersey City ami New York. All the Incorporators are prominent officials of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, which Is the real promoter of the project.

President Baer, of the Philadelphia Reading, makes a statement which definitely defines the status of the relations between his road and the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore Ohio, and with equal decisiveness disposes of the rumor of a leae of the Reading by either of the roads named. He hn no hesitancy in saying that the relations between the Reading and the Pennsylvania are entirely friendly. The Eastern trunk lines are considering the question of advancing passenger rates between Chicngo and New York on most of the differential lines and abolishing second-class tickets. The proposition as it now stands is to make a straight rate between the points named over the Pennsylvania and New York Central of $20, over the Baltimore Ohio, the West Shore, Lackawanna and the Lehigh Valley $1S. and over the Erie and the Ontario Ac Western $17.

Paul Morton, vice president of the Santa Fe. states that the company will expend for power and equipment, which is made necessary by the rapid Increase in passenger and freight traffic on all parts of the system. The company now has contracts for 4M) freight cars, and will largely increase its passenger equipment. It is also putting down heavier steel rails, introducing the block signal system and will build a fine hotel at Grand Canyon, purposing to make it a popular resort for tourists. The Union Station accommodations are fully as inadequate to-day as they were fourteen years ago to handle the business of the lines.

Especially are the train sheds too limited, both in length and width. When the present sheds were built they were arranged to hold sixteen trains, there being eight tracks through the entire length of the sheds. At present an ordinary through train occupies an entire track under the shed, the trains being made up' of ten to twelve cars, each seventy-live feet in length. The Chicago, Zeigler Gulf Railroad, with a capital of was incorporated at Sprinislield, yesterday. The principal offices will be in Chicago.

It is to be constructed from Chicago, in a south and southwest direction through Zeigler. Franklin county, Illinois, to Cairo, 111., with branches to East St. Louis. 111., and to the northerly shore of the Ohio river in Massac county, Illinois. The incorporators and first board of directors are: William J.

Warr. Hugh Crabbe. John II. Hume. Sidney Stein and Henry It.

Piatt, all of Chicago. General Manager Allen, of the Cincinnati, Richmond Ac Muncie road, pays he expects their trains will be running between Cincinnati and Chicago by July 1. possibly earlier. When it is considered that it is now but eighteen months since work was begun on the fifty-eight miles between Cottage Grove and Muncie, it is evident that there is a good deal of push behind the enterprise. The Cincinnati, Hamilton Dayton track is now used between Cottage Grove and Cincinnati, but the management, when It gets into Chicago, will build into Cincinnati.

In a few weeks the company will have the road completed tb North Judson. From Hammond to Chicago the company proposes to use the track of the Chicago Terminal Company. It Is understood that when completed the company will be reorganized as the Cincinnati Chicago Railroad Company. tiii: ivAisHirs family. Six Roys nml One Girl 3Inke Very Lively Household.

New York Commercial Advertiser. Emperor William of Germany has very positive ideas on all subjects concerning the affairs of his realm and of his household. He is a strict disciplinarian, even with his children, and according to report he has not spared the royal rod on occasion. There is, however, a softer side to the Emperor's nature, as the Illustration shows. The Emperor, with all his apparent severity, is essentially a family man and Is most devoted to his wife and children.

He is particularly fond of his young daughter, Victoria Louise, born in 192. She is the Emperor's only daughter and came after six sons had been born to the royal couple. RecentlV a work was published on the personal side of the Emperor's life. Some of the comments regarding the Emperor's children have much human interest. Six high-spirited boys are sometimes difficult to keep in subjection.

The writer relates an anecdote in point which he de-dares to be absolutely authentic. Pastor Frommel. court preacher, is granted frequent Interviews with the Emperor. On one occasion before entering the he had left his hat in the ante-room. Now it happened that a short time before the children had seen an opera hat and had amused themselves by trying to discover the secret of the Ynechanlsm that allowed it to open and shut at wid.

They took It for granted that good Herr Frommel's hat was of similar species. When they found that it would not dose up the crown prince issued orders to his brothers to sit down upon it. The effect was disastrous. The hat shut up for good and all. The consequent joy of adolescent royalty took on such hilarious voice as to attract Emperor, guest and attendants Into the ante-room.

The situation was so comical that William II could not be angry, the less so as the pastor interceded for the culprits. A new hat was brought for Pastor Frommel. and the ehUdren escaped with a reprimand. At present there are only three small boys and the little girl who play In the nursery. Even for the two elder ones of these serious work has already begun, and the education, like their general training, is organized with great severity.

Naturally more Is expected of a prince than of a simple citizen of the middle Claas. Above all. thorough acquaintance with all foreign languages, especially French, is expected of every prince of the historical house. The mapping of their hours of work for every day is made very carefully beforehand, and the classes at which they must be present are mentioned. Almost to a moment everything is regulated with military precision.

Besides their intellectual training, the young princes have to be developed from a physical point of view. The Emperor's children also cultivate the arts. Tht; crown prince and his next brother learn the violin and the piano. A sergeant major drills the younger princes every day and an hour a day is devoted to riding. From their earliest years the children are put on ponies and learn at once to mount a horse bareback.

William II superintends these lessons In person, because of his love of horses and his exceptional skill as a horseman. The young princess, of course, comes more directly under the supervision of the Empress. That she will be taught to paint, to play the piano and will be Instructed in the, usual feminine acquirements can be taken for granted. She will also no doubt learn more prosaic things, as the selection and supervision of the making of her own wardrobe, a work which the Empress gives her personal attention. ALL BRIDGES ARE UNSAFE REPORT OF THE EXPERT, T.

L. COM). RON, PRESENTED TO THE CITY. Hoard of Works Closes the Structures to Loaded Cnrs Repairs to He Made. Bridge Exrert T.

L. Condron presented his report yesterdaj on the condition of the bridges over White river at West Michigan street, Morris street. River avenue and at Emrichsville. As was expected the report disclosed to the Board of Works that all the bridges are unsafe if not absolutely dangerous. The report, which goes into an exhaustive statement of the condition of each structure which Mr.

Condron examined, states that the bridges are not worth costly repairs, and that they should be replaced at once with modern structures in which confidence may be placed. The export recommends the board that the bridges used for street-car traffic be closed to loaded cars at once and that they should be used for ordinary street traflic subject to rigid restrictions. The meeting at which the report was presented was held in the office of the city attorney yesterday morning. At Its conclusion the Board of Works ordered the bridges closed to loaded cars. That the operations of me street-railway company might not be susjended in caring for passengers west of the river the board cided to allow empty cars to cross the bridges, the passengers transferring at either end.

Patrolmen are stationed at the bridges to see that the orders of the board are carried out. BRIDGES TO BE STRENGTHENED. The board yesterday decided to strengthen the bridges mentioned by wooden trusses. The expenses of the temporary repairs will be borne only in part by the city. It Is estimated that the repairs will cost about and of this amount the Indianapolis Street-railway Company will be required to pay about $7,000.

These figures are approximations, the exact amounts not yet being estimated. It is the purpose of the board to make the repairs as expeditiously as possible. Included In Us report Mr. Condron presented tables of figures with which he convinced the board of the daliger existing. All the bridges were overstressed, he said; the one at West Michigan street from 73 to 05 per the one at Morris street to an even greater degree it having been preserved from a collapse by the girder rails of the street-car tracks and the one at River avenue from 81 to 86 per cent.

The Emrichsville bridge is not used for streetcar traffic, but it fs overstressed from ordinary traflic. The specific report of the expert as to each bridge examined is epitomized in the following recommendations: "That the West Michigan-street bridge. River-avenue and Morris-street bridges be closed to street-car traffic, as the chances of having heavily-loaded cars on these bridges, combined with ordinary traffic loads, could not be positively guarded against by any system of watchmen, and such a combination of loads would actually endanger the lives of a large number of people. "That the roadways of the West Michigan-street and Morris-street bridges be restricted to a clear width of ten feet each, confining the traffic on either roadway of both bridges to the ten feet adjacent to the outside trusses and keeping all loads. off of those parts of the present roadways nearest to the center trusses, in the case of the Morris-street bridge also removing the sidewalks.

This will reduce the possible loads on the bridges with minimum interference to traffic and cause the trusses to be uniformly loaded with respect to their relative strengths. FOR ORDINARY TRAFFIC. "That the River-avenue bridge be left open to ordinary street traffic, while closed to street cars, and that street-railway rails like those now in the floor be kept on the bridge and connected to the floor beams. Such rails will by their stiffn(ss distribute concentrated loads over several beams, thereby materially reducing the floor beam stresses. Kxpensive repairs are not recommended, however.

"That the floor beams of the Emrichs-vllla bridge be strengthened at once by trussing and that the bridge be used as at present for ordinary highway traffic only, no electric cars ever being permitted upon it. While the structure is considerably overstressed by the londlng assumed, the location is such that at present heavy traffic does not frequently pass over the bridge in both directions at the same time. "That each one of these bridges be replaced with the least possible delay by well designed and adequately strong modern structures that can be safely depended upon to carry the heavy street traffic of a large city, including- electric railway cars of the largest type now used or that can be reasonably anticipated." STRENUOIS LIFE OF CLERKS. Appcnrmice of Person Alllleted with Smallpox Causes Scare. Clerks of the office of the Board of Health led a strenuous life not unmixed with terror yesterday.

Yesterday morning E. M. Hays, who gives his residence at SO North New Jersey street, walked into the board office to ask some questions about smallpox. Clerk Carter took one look at his red face, spotted with small eruptions, and sprang for the big formaldehyde squirter. Mr.

Hays was given a liberal dose of the pungent disinfectant and then hurriedlv bundled into an ambulance and taken to the City Hospital. Dr. Buehler savs Hays is suffering probably from vaccina, the results of vaccination which took more than well. The clfice force had hardly got over their scarce and blinked their eyes free from the paralyzing effects of the formaldehyde when they were subjected to a fright even more wearing on the nerves. One of the new inspectors appeared at the door leading a cole red man whose face and hands bore nasty evidence of the nature of his trouble.

"Seeking information as to his disposal, the Inspector had brought him to the board office through the corridors of the City Hall. When his blotched face appeared at the door the clerks ran for cover. Carter, however, again got out the squirter and used It with effect. The office of the board was thoroughly fumigated and the formaldehyde was sprayed on the walls and floor of the corridor. The other cases reported to the board yesterday were those of Ethel Hall, col-bred, seven, years of age.

Vholepale procers were fairly There was no material change in prices, notwithstanding the report of a break in the coffee market, as reported in New York, there having been no decline here. Navy beans are weak at quotations. Canned goods are moving well and from now on a very active market is looked for. Trices continue firm but no higher. Dried fruits are moving freely and prices are steadj-, but tropical fruits are more slow, and dealers are not expecting much until the weather becomes springlike.

On Commission row trade was fair, but there was no rush. In the last two days delayed orders were cleaned up to some extent, the weather admitting of shipments in closed warmed cars. Oranges are the best sellers, apples, if choice, being so high they move slow. Butter Is very firm at the prices named, and tbe same remark will apply to poultry, receipts be-Intr licht. With warm weather, however.

prices on poultry, eggs and butter prob- ably will decline. The hide market snows little more activity, but there Is no Improvement in prices. Seldom does this market remain so dull and prices so low as during sixty days past. Tne leather market shows more life, but In this line there is little room for boasting of conditions, as it has moved along much in the same rut for many months. Confectioners report their business as Improving.
