Steamship Men Will Hereafter Furnish
Quotations to Bureau Agents.
At 3 o’clock the conference adjourned
and the conferees proceeded to get lunch
as quick as they could.
Chairman Campbell of the Southwest-
ern freight bureau, who was the spokes-
man of the meeting, said that the re-
sult of the meeting was that the ship
agents would hereafter furnish quota-
tions to bureau representatives as here-
tofore and that all differences had been
settled.
This was all he would say upon the
subject and others who had participated,
in the conference declined to talk about it.

System of Doing Business Is
Being Discussed.

LOUIS MARX,
Sole Agent,
GALVESTON. TEX.
The conference between the ship agents
and railway traffic men, which was ad-
journed from Friday last until today,
resumed this morning in the rooms of the
Galveston maritime association.. This
session started at 11 o’clock and the con-
ferees were still hard at it at 3 o’clock
this afternoon, with no prospect of an
adjournment even for lunch.
This four-hour session has dissipated
the idea that only the matter of quota-
tions of ocean rates is involved. It is
now practically admitted that the whole
system of doing business between the ship
agents and the railways, which has never
been entirely satisfactory, is being dis-
cussed with a view to substituting some-
thing better, if the parties at interest can
agree upon that something.
Just what the conferees are doing is not
known outside of the conference room.
So the statement that a plan has been
submitted for discussion is mere surmise,
but it is in all likelihood in the line of
what has been done.
None of the gentlemen attending the
conference would make any statement
concerning it.

Special to The Tribune.
Georgetown, Tex., Nov. 22.—John Hy-
smith, who shot and mortally wounded
Thomas A. Evans near Hutto yesterday,
was brought to the county jail last night.
Hysmith claims that Evans was ad-
vancing on him with a knife when, he
■fired. The difficulty occurred in the pub-
lic road in front of Hysmith’s home and
grew out of slanderous reports alleged to
have been circulated by Evans. Both
families are prominent in that section and
are related by marriage.

Girardeau’s Contrivance
Switching Street Cars.
Julian Girardeau, janitor of the Cotton
exchange, has patented a contrivance
by which the motorman o-n a street car
can turn a switch by simply moving a
lever on the car. The contrivance con-
sists of what is called a rocking shaft,
attached to the body of the car. The
shaft, at the will of the motorman, can
be made to bear upon a switch and
throw it for the main line of for a branch
as desired/ Mr. Girardeau figures that to
fit out a car with his invention would
not cost more than $25. He believes the
saving In time, trouble and expense would
more than offset this.
A model of the invention was on ex-
hibition in the office of Secretary Young
of the Cotton exchange today and the
brokers had the toy car making flying
switches and going along the main line
at a great rate.
“Dick” Murray, Doctor Young’s assist-
ant, has a half interest in the invention.

The Santa Fe has entered into an ar-
rangement with the Atchison whereby
that road will furnish the Santa Fe at
once with eight powerful freight engines.
“Owing to the enormous movement of
cotton, live stock and grain, we find it im-
possible to handle all the business offer-
ing owing to lack of equipment. Every
one of the Santa Fe’s 153 engines are in
service and being worked up to the last
notch, but we found we would have to
have more.”
“Then the Santa Fe is making a pot of
money?” Col. Polk was asked.
“The Santa Fe is moving a world of
business, but it is doing like other roads
in moving it at compulsory figures which
leave very little profit. , The rates are too
thin to show much to the good in the way
of net earnings.”
