RAILROADS. TO PREVENT WBECKS Changes in the Methods of Trans mitting Train Orders Are Being Suggested. One of the Lessons From the Chicago Great Western Wreck of Sunday. The fatal wreck on the Great "Western Sunday morning has again brought into discussion the faulty train dispatching methods now in use, and has prompted suggestions from traffic managers and train dispatchers as to means for elim inating some of the danger of the mis interpretation of orders. Orders were sent to the south-bound freight Sunday morning to look out for the second section of the north-bound passenger train, which was two and a half hours late. The first section was on time, but the conductor of the freight took, the dispatch to mean, that the tirst section was also lateand the collision was the result. Now comes the suggestion that, instead of dividing trains into sections, the sec ond section should be known as an extra and should be specified by the number Of the engine drawing it. According to ft prominent railroad official, the custom Of describing two parts of the same train as "first section" and "second section" has caused at least twenty wrecks this year. THRALL SYSTEM IN FAVOR Western Passenger Officials May Decide on New Mileage Plan. There will be a meeting of Western Passenger officials to-morrow, at which time it will probably be decided to shelve the credential mileage book for the W.. A. Thrall system good on trains. Th e Milwaukee, the Burlington, the Wiscon sin Central, the Minneapolis & St. Louis and the Great Western have signified their desire to change to the Thrall system, and it is likely that the new mileage will be in use by Sept. 1. The adoption of the interchangeable mileage ticket is sure to bring about a rate war in Missouri river territory. For the Rock Island-'Frisco and the Gould Systems are openly fighting it, claiming that it practically establishes a 2 cent a mile rate for all classes of passenger traffic. PROGRESS IN ASSINIBOIA Areola-Regina Railway a Great Impetus Another Line. Halbrite, Assa., July 29.The building et the railway from Areola to Regina has given great impetus to the settlement along the line of railway. The district served by this railway is looked upon by good judges as the'most promising part of the Northwest Territories, while other districts at the present time are suffer ing from the want of moisture, the farm ers here are congratulating themselves on the prospects of as good, if not a better, crop of wheat and coarse grains than they bad last year. The railway officials have stated to the ettlers in this locality that a railway will be built shortly from the elbow in t-8, where the line turns northward, to SUMMER PIMPLES Redness, Roughness and Irritations Prevented by Baths with And light applications 0/ Cuticura Ointment, purest and sweetest of emollients and greatest of skin cures.

It will shorten the distance between Portal and Regina by seventy-six miles. It will bring the traffic of the new line imjne- diatelyHnto direct communication with the Soo line, and will be a great accommoda tion to all the settlers. It Is expected that this branch will be built next year. The crops In this district, from Broad view west to Regina, and directly south to Macoun, taking in Weyburn and Hal brite, on the Soo line, and part of the Yellow Grass district, are excellentquite as good as last year. This district appears to be the favored wheat-growing region of the northwest, even in the exceedingly dry years. The year of 1900 the settlers in this locality claimed that they had a yield of 25 bushels to the acre around Weyburn. -. "'.' SETTLES WITH MACHINISTS Great Northern Agrees to a Wage Scale That Is Satisfactory. A settlement of the wage question was reached between the Great Northern road and its machinists yesterday. The agree ment is similar to the one made by the Northern Pacific several days ago. The machinists working east of Minot, N. D., will get 34% cents an hour, or $3.45 and of Minot 37% cents an hour, or $3.45 and $3.75 per day, respectively. Neither the Omaha nor the Great Northern has reached a settlement with the boilerma Kers, who want 13.60 per day, altho tne Omaha has reached a settlement with the, machinists, by which they get $3.45 per day. Rock Island Gets the E. & T. H. Thru the failure of Edwin S. Hooley & Co., of Wall street the Rock Island sys tem has gained control of the EvansVille & Terre Haute and several subsidiry lines. Mr. Hooley has resigned as president and director of the different lines and has been succeeded by B. F. Yoa kum, president of the St. Louis & San Francisco lines. The price paid for the stock was in the neighborhood of SO. Wisconsin Central Changes.
