(The Central Railroad Is to Abolish Its
Second-class Coaches.
Consul General A. L. M. Gottschalk of
Mexico City, reports as follows concern-
ing an interesting development in passen-
ger traffic of the railroads in the Mexi-
can republic:
It has been customar^, since the estab-
lishment of railroads in Mexico, to offer
travelers three-classes of transportation,
the first class being similar to Pullmans
in the United States, the second class
something inferior to our ordinary day
coaches upon way trains, and the third
class being little more than box cars with
wooden benches. This was found neces-
sary by reason of the fact that the lower
class, who travel extensively over short
distances by train, are usually unclean in
their persons, carrying with them innum-
erable bundles, native food of a pro-
nounced, odor, etc. By contract entered
into- by the Mexican government and the
Mexican Central railroad and the Ferto-
carril Mexicana in August the railroad
i company is authorized to do away with
its second-class - passenger accommoda-
‘ tions, which are now limited to first and
' third classes.
A similar change occurred about 18
months ago in the City of Mexico with
1 the public cab service, which formerly of-
fered three classes of accommodations—
i. e., blue, red and yellow flag cabs. The
third-class or “yellow-flag” cabs were
suppressed, with the result that the “red-
flag” cabs (which were formerly second
class) have become almost exclus’vely the
property of the lower class, the better
class of people being obliged now to take
the mote expensive “blue-flag” cabs.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 17.—President
E. Benj. Andrews of the University of
Nebraska, in addressing the fall convoca-
tion of the George Washington university
here yesterday literally denounced what
he termed malicious and willful misrepre-
sentation of the acts of public or promi-
nent men by the press. Flanging, he said,
should be the punishment meted out to a
proved libeler.
“None of the business villains alleged
to be so rife,” he continued, “can com-
pare in atrocity with the squalid cam-
paigns of libel and libelous caricatures
which weeks or months are produced.”
Dr. Andrews said he did not care for the
rich as such, but the pride, idleness and
doubtful practices of a few rich are no
just cause for putting all rich meh on the
pillory. He contended that high prices of
commodities were attributable to the tol-
erence of the public rather than to mo-
nopolistic tendencies.

to the throne is provided with perfect
clearness, Francis Ferdinand, Otto and
Charles Francis coming in the’ order
named. But jvhoever of the three
comes to the throne, the outlook for
the restoration of peace through his
rule »is not bright. Neither Francis
Ferdinand nor Otto has been educated
as the successful future ruler of Aus-
tria must be, and even young Charles,
though some attempt has been made
to give him a liberal education,
not received the broad training neces-
sary for the task.
Such is the outlook for the future
ruler of Austria. Tfie venerable em-
peror, who is now believed to be on
his deathbed, has been responsible for
many of the troubles that have over-
taken his kingdom, but his intentions
have generally been good and his firm
hand has held the sheaf of nations to-
gether. Whether his successor will be
able to do so well is a matter of such
grave doubt that the passing of Francis
Joseph is feared as a national crisis.
Special to The Tribune.
Vienna, Oct. 17.—The fear with which
every earnest, thinking man of the em-
pire has looked forward to the time
w’hen Emperor Francis Joseph shall
pass away is rendered more acute each
day by the bulletins issued from the
sick room of the aged ruler. That the
old emperor can not long survive is no
longer denied in official circles. In
vain does the Austrian who loves his
land, and wishes to see it exist in its
present form, sing with all his heart:
“God save Emperor Francis Joseph!”
A successor competent to Yule this
uneasy conglomeration of quarreling
nationalities is not in sight. With
Crown Prince Rudolf’s death ended the
life of a man who, although abundantly
supplied with the frailties of humanity,
was nevertheless loved intensely by a
large_portion of the Austrian and Hun-
garian people. Had he lived, temper-
ance might have come with mature
years, and it is not impossible that he
might have developed firmness and
strength of character, which, aided by
the love his subjects' bore him, would
have enabled him to dominate and rule
them. By him, however, the wages of
excess had to' be paid early, and the
Austro-Hungarian throne was left
without a direct successor.
Archduke Francis Ferdinand, nephew
of the emperor, was selected as the heir
apparent, but he was frail, weakened
and ailing, and only after long voy-
ages and extended sojourns in southern
climates was hia physical condition
suclr as to warrant the hope that he
would live to rule. But Cupid, ever
fond of upsetting royal plans, played
one of his roguish pranks' with 'Francis
Ferdinand. The archduke fell in love
With the Countess Sophie Chotek, who
was, a maid of honor of the Crown
Princess Stephanie, widow of the un-
fortunate Archduke Rudolf. When the
heir to the imperial honors was mar-
ried to the simple-title woman of his
oiioice the question as to his succession
to the throne became general. It was
announced at the time that the arch-
duke had renounced all rights of suc-
cession for his children, should he be
blessed with any by his morganatic
marriage with the countess. The first
child of the couple was a daughter,
born July 24, 1901. A year later a son
was born and the popular discussion in
regard to the succession was then re-
newed.
There are many people in the empire,
and particularly in Hungary, who hold
that he could not thus divest his chil-
dren of rights derived from royal birth.
So far as the archduke himself is con-
cerned, however, he has never given
any reason to believe that he will vio-
late the oath regarding his wife and
his children which he made at the time
of his marriage. The arrangement at
•the time, it was understood, was that
Francis Ferdinand would be succeeded
on the throne, not by the male issue of
his marriage witn the Countess Chotek,
but by the eldest boy of his brother
Otto, the now 19-year-old Archduke
Charles Francis, tn.e first of the princes
of the house of napsburg to be brought
up and educated in anything like ac-.
cordance with the liberal ideas of to-,
day.
In order that the young archduke
might succeed to the throne it would be
. r
necessary for h.s father, the Archduke
Otto, to abdicate in his favor. The lat-
ter, a man of fine appearance, has in
recent years enjoyed a certain amount
of popularity among the people—-a pop-
ularity which for many years public
disgust made impossible. Hair-raising
tales are told of the excesses indulged
in by him and his ^officer comrades.
Moderation seems to have come with
years, however, and Archduke Otto has
of late enjoyed a little more of honor-
able public attention than he did in the
past. There is a possibility that he
might assume the imperial purple, but
the belief is more general that he would
waive his rights in favor of his son.
As matters now stand the succession
