100 DISCHARGED
FROM THE MINT
Ax Falls After Coinage for the
Philippine Islands Is
Finished
At last the ax has fallen in the
United States' , mint. There were
dropped from the pay roll yesterday
100 employes of the federal govern
ment engaged in making coin.
It lias heen understood for some
tune at the mint that the working
force was to be reduced. In discharg
ing the 100 employes Superintendent.
Sweeney has not discharged any of
the older employes. Most of those
discharged were hired to help In the
coining of the money for the Philip
pines. There was also a gold coinage
for the United States of ?52, 000,000,
which required a large for.c.
-^All of this work was finished last
week. This task out of the way, the
list was prepared and posted. At the
mint Superintendent Sweene>* declined
to make public names of those who had
been dropped.

Gossip of Railwaymen
*
, / / ™T"* AL.KING about vacations," said
f Henry Avila, "we had an expe-
X rience in this office which takes
the cake for gall when asking
for a vacation is mentioned.
"After the fire stenographers were
scarce, for boys who knew anything
about railroading were being made
traffic managers and all that sort of
thing and we had to take any one we
could get.
"We got a chap whose cheek had not
its equal in the state. He was forever
butting into everything and he knew
all about everything except stenog
raphy. Well, he was not here 10 weeks
before he asked for a vacation of two
months and .passes to- Boston, New
York and Philadelphia. -
"Did he get them?. Well, he isn't
working for this company/ now. We
were afraid that he would be putting
Harriman out of business if he stayed
for another 10 weeks and to save our
jobs we got rid of him."
The sugar refiners again are appeal
ing to Californian lines for an exten
sion of rates on sugar to points in
Michigan and Wisconsin. They make
the statement that the production in
California during the coming season
will be abnormal and that they must
have an increase in territory. They
point to the fact that refiners in Michi
gan are located in the center of popu
lation and that they can dispose of
their entire production in the middle
states. They further call attention to
the comparatively small population of
Pacific coast territory from which they
draw the conclusion that in order to
assist this industry their market must
be extended as far east as possible.
Californian lines view this matter as
do the refiners and will do all in their
power to grant their application. Here
tofore, however, they have been un
able to convince eastern carriers of the
necessity of the extension of territory
proposed, due probably to the fact that
eastern carriers make more revenue by
handling the product of these local fac
tories than they would from their pro
portion of a through transcontinental
rate.
Some months ago there was published
in these columns the fact that E. H.
Harriman did not intend to stop rail
road construction either at Guadala
jara or the City of Mexico, but that
his plans embraced a railroad to the
Panama canal. It was stated also that
he had either acquired- the Pan-Ameri
can or was about to secure, the prop
erty. Since that article .was written
D. P. Doak, the president, lias been
turning his attention to his many in
terests in this state, 'and from what
can be learned he is not taking an
active participation in the management
of the affairs of that road. It will
be remembered that Lyle Fletcher was
in his employ on the Pan-American,
but Fletcher has been absent from
Mexico for several months, and is now
laying out town sites for Doak in the
northern part of the state.
Whenever Harriman was asked as to
his intentions with regard to continu r
ing the Southern Pacific extensions in
Mexico he evaded the question by say
ing: "There can be no end to rail
road construction." -
The Mexican Herald, which has kept
in touch with railroad affairs in the
republic, in its issue of June 6 says:
The Mexican Herald is able to say that E. H.
Harriman controls today the railroad situation
from all points on the west coast of the United
States to the western terminal "of the Panama
canal. .
At any time that the Pan-American "railroad is
necessary to his construction work he »vill ac-
Qulre it. At any time, that he needs to acquire
concessions in Central America they will be ready
for him. ' • . - J
The track of the Southern Pacific is being
pushed forward as fast as men and money can
push it into Guadalajara. No-work comes of an
attempt to secure, the concessions down the rich
I.i r ma valley to this capital, Mexico City, toward
which all have thought Harriman was alining.
Senator Jope Castellot has paid the first fees
and secured the concession in the name of Salt
Lake, parties for a line from Acapulco to. Salina
TREADWELL DID NOT OWN
MINE BEARING HIS NAME
Was Located by Brother John,
Who Sold Interests
During 1 the hearing 1 of the .Tames
Treadwell bankruptcy proceedings .be
fore. Referee in Bankruptcy Milton -,J.
Green yesterday the former mining',
kinff .stated : that h« never in: his
life had owned a dollar of the Tread
well mine in Alaska. He also stated
that his brother, John Treadwell. was
not Interested in the. property,; al
though he liacTboen the original locator
of the mine ' that now yields several
millions of dollars annually.
The day was occupied mostly -with
the discussion about stocks in the In
terboroußh bank of New York and the
Atlantic savings and deposit bank of
New York, owned by Treadwell before
the failure of the California safe de
posit and trust company.. He stated
that these stocks had been sent east
to be sold before the bank closed and
that he did not know what had become
of them. He presumed that they- had
been* taken over by Receiver I,e Breton
as part of the assets of the defunct
banking house.
At the request of the creditors John
F. Kelly was elected trustee: in \u25a0 the

Cniz. and this concession is held open and is
ready for Harriman when he is ready to take it
up and bsijltl the line. For this concession a.de
posit of something over $100,000 has alread/
been made with the Sfeiican government. This
line will be built via, Gamboa, the northern tev
minus pf the Pan-American railroad, and when
H arrives there connection will be made, with
the Pan-American. . For the gap between the
present northern point of the Southern Pacific
survey and Acapulco a number of routes are
under consideration. .A Mexico ' City company
holds one, which is said to be the most available
one. •
Arthur E. Stillwell. president of the
Kansas City, Mexico and Orient rail
way, in a recent interview said that by
August his line would , be built into San
Angelo, Tex., and that since work was
begun on this road 56 towns have been
created -along' the route, each averag
ing 1,000 inhabitants. Continuing,
Stillwell- said: •
"When our road is entirely
built it will shorten the distance
from the., heart of the country
to the Pacific by 500 miles. We
have now i.n service 60 locomotives
and 2,000 cars." Stillwell added that
"our financial, status is now of the
very best, and 1 consider the wide dis
tribution of the stock one of the most
beneficial features of the whole af
fair."
The car \u25a0efficiency committee of the
American railway association states
that the total number of surplus cars
in the United States and Canada June
1 was 273,890, a decrease compared
with the previous fortnight of 10,589,
or 3*i per cent. The increased de
mand for coal "and flat cars reduced
the surplus of these classes .10,312;
while the surplus of box cars increased
4,656.
It is asserted that James J. Hill will
spend within the next two years
$16,000,000 on the Northern Pacific in
reducing grades and in perfecting the
branch lines in North Dakota and Mon
tana in order to be able to- compete
with the Chicago, Milwaukee and Pu
get Sound. in that territory. Work has
been begun at various points along
the main line % of the Northern Pacific
and, contracts for -several large proj
ects are already in the hands of the
general contractors of the road.
According to report. ' western roads
have decided to abolish second class
tickets about July 1, owing to de
moralizing manipulation in the hand
ling of laborers, especially- at : Kansas
City and St. Paul. It is stated that it
is not uncommon, for ordinary travel
ers in this way to get the benefit of
reduced rates. It has been charged
that some roads have - been dealing
with scalpers and permitting thereto
get parties of 10 or more together and
apply for the lower rates. The rail
road secured the full tariff rates for
the bogus laborers, whereas the
ticket scalpers charged the travelers
whatever he pleased under the full
first class rate.
Reports from the chief engineer's
office of the Western Pacific state that'
the track is now 50 miles west of
Winnemucca, and in the Sierra Nevada
six miles from .Spring Garden, tunnel,
which is all ready for the rails. In
Nevada the track is one mile west of
Battle Mountain, there being a gap of
55 miles between Battle Mountain and
Winnemucca.-
The Santa Fe will build a line from
Plainview to Lubbock, 47 miles, and
track laying. will.' commence, on July 1
and -is expected to be completed by
October 1. > This, it is said,- is one of

A Thoughtless Druggist
QNLY a thoughtless. druggist would offer a preparation without the signature
of Chas. H. Fletcher when Oastoria is called ; for; the " delicate, faint and
flickering light" that joins baby's life to its devoted parents being too 'sacred,
to; the; sel&respecting druggist, to be trifled with. %:•'
For over thirty years Mr, Fletcher has given, and still gives, his personal
attention to the preparation of Castoria. It has won the confldence of mothers
and physicians everywhere—never harmed the tuiiest babe. This cannot be said
of^lmitations, Counterfeits and the "Just-as-good" rot.
The thoughtless druggist only, offers the^counterfeit because of a few pennies
more profit, Any new preparation can be but an experiment, and they are experi-
ments—mere guess work— irrespective of what their sponsors may say for them.
It is experience of over thirty years, against wild and injudicious experiment,

* !of Crescent City,
who has recently been doing consider
able touring in that vicinity with his
new Studebaker. "The mountain and
coast scepery is also second in point
of scenic beauty to no other part of
the west. Crescent City has five miles
of beach which is very hard, sandy and
wide at low tide, making tjjis strip of
roadway exceedingly appropriate for
automobiling. The roads from Kureka
to Crescent City are excellent and.
while there are several hills, the grade
is easy. In going to Portland I would
recommend autoists to take the road
from Crescent City to Grants Pass. A
portion of the road will be found quite
rocky, but extensive improvement is
going on all the time."
