TOStFXXKS CHOSE1 PRESIDENT. i The twelfth annual meeting- of the Ctatrml Association of Railroad officer, held reterdy In the men's parlor of the Gait Room, brought together about fifty of the officers of the railroads ta the central section of the country, thus ma Una; It one of the largest converKion in the history of the association. The association la composed entirety of railroad men and a one was admitted to the meetings except the members and a few invited guests. President E. Canon, of Kansas City, called the association to order at 19 o'clock yesterday morning.

Mr. SlaYA. I. Akera, the General Agent of the Big Pour and the and delivered the address of welcome In bebalf of the railroad mm of Louisville, la his remarks he assure! the visitors that, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding. Kentucky was a perfectly safe piece to visit and promised them an experience of the genuine old Kentucky hospitality.

He Introduced Judge Sterling B. Toaey, who welcomed the railroad men In behalf of the citlsea of Louisville. President Carson responded In a happy manner. Following these addresses the association took up the regular business of the meeting, which wms largely of a technical nature aad pertained largely to the betterment of railroad At the morning session President Carson read a paper on "Application Blanks and Service Letters. He was followed by C.

8. Rhoada. who spoke on "Railroad Signal Lights." Mr. F. L.

Tompkins spoke on "Expense of Transferring Carload Freight at Junction Points." Mr. J. R. Cavatiaugh was on the programme to read a paper on "The Cost of Passenger Equipment Loaned." but was unable ta be present His psper, however, waa read. At noon the association adjourned for lunch, but met a short time later, aa it was decided to finish up all business yesterday, a number present being unable to remain throughout to-day.

At the afternoon session technical papers were read by Riley on "Retting of Engines on "Tonnage Baals;" by O. W. Bender on "The Best Method of Disposing of Waste. Rub-blah, etc. by A.

Paquette, of Peoria, on "The Maximum Load of Cars;" by H. Barnard, of St. Louis, oa "The Grata Door Question," and by. F. B.

Parker, of Kansas City, on "Railroad Terminal Facilities at Kaiuaa City." The much-dircussed Subject of the selection and development of mea for railroad service was considered la a thorough and Interesting manner in a psper written by Mr. B. W. Taylor, of Louisville, and read by hla chief clerk. Another question which la now attracting much attention from the railroad mea of the entire country, that of railroad forestry, or the disposition and preservation of the forest lands betoa-Ing to the railroads, was discussed by Mr.

J. Hope Sutor, of Columbus, see "The Ballroad Tramp. The feature of the programme la point ef general Interest waa the paper read by Mr. Joslah Flynt Wlllard. of New York, oa "Railroad Police Organisation xand the Tramp Problem." Mr.

Wlllard la undoubtedly the "tramp authority" of America, aa hla articles on the American tramp la Bcribner'e and other maga-sines and his present book, "Tramping With Trampa." will bear witness. Mr. Wlllard, or, as he Is better known. PJoelah Flynt," waa a tramp himself during the years 1S93 and 1893. He slept with trampa, ate with them, starved with them; In fact, lived their life In every detail for over two years.

Teeter day, when asked why he did this, he aald that he had alwaya been Interested ta police affairs, and felt that If the tramp problem could ever be solved, a thorough knowledge of the tramp and Ms habits must first be obtained. Wlllard la a little man. clean-shaven, weighing not more than 130 pounds. He seems to be literally a bundle of perves, but is a man of force of character. He left last night for New York, and on Saturday he will salt tor Paris.

1 His paper, which is the only one given ut for publication, handles the tramp problem from the standpoint of a railroad man, and is. In part, as follows: "Sneaking generally, there are two Classes of tramps in the United States, the first being composed of those who travel oa the highways, and the second those who-reps and steal rldea on the wanderers on the highways generally carry bundles and blankets and are consequently culled hurdle men or 'blanket Their generic name ta They are to be foucd from Maine to California, but they are not recognised by the hobo as belonging to the genuine tramp fraternity. "The train Jumpers or hobos are distinctly an American product. They have come among us during the past thirty years. After the civil war there uddenly appeared on the scene a large class of men who had become so enamored of canp life that they found It Impossible to return to quiet living, as they took to wandering.

Occasionally they workid a HtUe to keep themselves In. pin mony, but by 1870 thousands of mea bad given up ail Intention of work, tug and bad founded the organisation known to-day as the "hobo Dy that year also, they bad discovered thai most of the turnpikes were bad roads to walk on and had begun to travel on the railroad tracks. Tbtn It was not vary long before It appeared to the 'tramp that it would be much more comfortable to sit In a box cur and rlOa than to 'drill' over the ties. An appreciation of thla character Is very soon acted upon in Hoboland. and by 1S75 the majority of our professional vagrants were taking lessons In Jumping on and off moving freight trains.

The trainmen, partly becaus they thought that many of these trespassers were deserving but penniless out-of-works, and partly on account of the Inborn willingness of every Americas to help any one down oa his luck, made practically no serious effort to keep the tramp off their Italaa aad by is Ut latter aas ac DO YOU GET.

"Ia summer the entire tramp faratty may be said to be ta The average dally Journeying of each man at this season of the year amounts to about fifty miles, which If paid for at regular rate would cost about a dollar."

If paid for at regular rates, bring la over It.

Ia closing, the writer spoke of the various means of suppressing the tramp nuisance and made a number of pertinent suggestions ss the course to be followed by the railroads of the country la the future to prevent thla loss of money resulting from the stealing of rides, thefts from car and damages obtained from injuries to trampa while stealing ride.

Special Th miners of thla section and the coal dlt trlcu of Tennessee, through their representatives, have asked the operators for a -Joint conference of operator and miners representatives to be held on July The stated purpose of the con ference I to confer regarding' aa Increase la the present wage scale and a renewal of the present yearly contract between miners and operator, which expires the last of August. Other matters, however, will be taken up, among which la the question of a two-weeks' pay day Instead of tb present plan of paying monthly. A large majority of the operators will attend, but there are some who have already stated that they will Ignore the conference, their reasons for so doing being that th matter, of a wage seals la a question which concerns th operator only so far aa tb amount to be paid the laborers Is concerned. What steps will be taken by the miners upon th refusal of th operator to grant their requests can not be surmised, but It Is the general opinion they will submit without a murmur, aa the majority of th mea are averse to going out at this thne. It now seems certain the miner will gain nothing by th conference which they have called; at least th majority of.

the operators who have been seen by the Courier-Journal correspondent are of this mind. They say summer la a dull season with them, aad that th men are already getting good wages, better even than the miner In many of the largest coal districts of Alabama and other portions) of the Southwest. The miners have hot yet officially stated the Increase which It Is their Intention to demand, but It is generally understood that from ten to fifteen cents more on the ton. will be asked. It la quit certain the majority of the operator will refuse th request, while there may be some who will grant the Increase.

The mine operator In the Mld-dlesboro aad Pine ville coal district are not, having tb least trouble with their men ln-the matter of wage. AID FOB KENTUCKY 8TBXXXBS. Stat Coal-ltlneTs. Union Unable Te Meet All, Demands. Evanevlll Journal.

SUIT FILED BOB REVOCATIONS' OB STREET RAIL WAT CHARTERS BY ATTORNEY GENERAL CROW. Says the Companies Ear Violated the Law and Created a monopoly. St. Louis, Mo, July 17. Attorney General Edward Crow to-day filed In the State Supreme Court quo warranto proceedings against the St Louis Transit Company, the United Railways Company and tb National Railway Company, asking that their charters be revoked.

The petition recite that th United Railways Company waa chartered by the State of Missouri to build and operate street railways, and it haa not conformed to thla charter; that It la a party to a scheme to create a street railway monopoly In St Loula the evidence of this being the leas of lta properties to the St. Louis Transit Company, a corporation-apparently formed to assist In the formation of thia alleged monopoly. The petition allege, further; that the companies have violated the State law In capitalizing for more than la allowed under the State law, and for more than the actual value of their tangible and Intangible properties. The Attorney General allege also that the organisation and operation of thee companies are In violation of the Stat and Federal Constitution, and that the law passed at the recent session of the General Assembly authorising a consolidation of th street railway' I in' contravention of the State Constitution. The suit Is against all the companies embraced In the St Louis Transit Company's system, but the prayer asks for the forfeiture of the charter only of th United, the Transit and the National Companies.

The other companies must answer to show by what authority their transfers to the St Louis Transit Company-were made, but their charters are not asked for, and If the suit la a success they will have the right to operate their linee aa independent companies, the same aa they did before th consolidation waa effected.
