WILCOX, Ssc'y. . . fir HIGH PRICE PAID FOR SAFETY ON RAILROAOS. gli‘lgnres inst compiled In the elites of the director of maintenance and oper- ation of the Union and Southern Pa- dlflc systems show that expenditures for safety appliances made by the present management of the two sys~ toms, total nearly 812,000,000. .For block signals, distant switch. signals, interlocking plants, crossing ‘ bells and gates, all of which‘ are charged to roadway, the Southern Pacific alone has spent more than 08,600,000. Safety devices on trains have cost the Southern Pacific in the same time almost.$4,000,000. On all the lines of the two systems block signals represent an outlay of $5,460,- ‘ 000. ‘Air brakes and high speed at- tachments have cost 83,296,000. 0n the Union Pacific lines nearly 88,000,000 has been spent on roadway safety devices, and $876,238 on equip- ment appliancesMsush as automatic couplers. train'signals, grab-irons, elec- tric and acetylene headlights. The Dr- egon Short Line and the Oregon Rail- road and Navigation Company have together absorbed $847,000 in roadway safety expenditures, and $650,000 for ‘ safety devices on cars and engines. The total outlays on account of safety appliances of all kinds are :2,- 845,298 for Union Pacific, $1,496,413 for the Oregon lines, and $7,491,809 for Southern PacificT-an . aggregate of $11,886,520; This total takes no no- oount. of the labor cost of operating safety devices, but is an indication that safety on railroads comes high in price. FRENCH SEAMEJN'S STRIKE ENDS ‘ PARIS, June tw—The seamen's strike is regarded as being; virtually ‘ ended and the men are everywhere ex- pected to resume‘work within twenty- fonr hours. The navigation compan- fis have accepted the government's _ recommendations and will restore the . officers and crews without insisting on . any penalties. The French Trans-At lantlc line hopes that Provence will be able to sail from Havre tomorrow. The only discord appears to be at Bor- deaux, where some of the delegates. notably a ml't'n named Buscaillet, find- ing that the local organization .is dis contented with the proposed compro mile agreement. ars.attempting to se « cure a reversal oi the decision to re- s‘uni'e work, but apparently without any chance of success. ___—_.-—e——————- CHICAGO MEAT PRICES ADVANCE.

That is, the question of its abolishment is before them for action A petition signed by 36 citizens of Darlen who own about all the land in the immediate section of the dogs home, has been presented to the Se lcctmen and Board of Health to speedy action. The petition brands the home a public nuisance and I menace to health and it calls upm the authorities to abolish it. Dr. G. H, Noxon, the health officer of Darien. is in consultation witt- County Health Ofi‘icer Hill, of Bridge port, and action of some sort is ex pected within a few days. If the su thoritios fail to make any move, thr petitioners propose to apply for i writ of mandamus to compel them it take. action, or, if they fail in this to seek a permanent injunction against the Home. Headed by Samuel Howe, a New York business mar whose country home is Just across the street from the dog farm. the pe titioners are determined to fight tht alleged nuisance to the last ditch. In ‘ asmuch as the Bide-a-Woe authoritiel are people of a good deal of influence and are inclined to be contentious, an interesting legal battle seems immi ment. . If Nathan Dauchy, the grand juror and official dog tax-collector for Dar ien, carries out. the plan credited tt him there may not be any necessity for a fight. in the courts provided, oi course, the Bide-mWee people neglect to comply with the statutes Mr Dauchy has taken the pains to ex plain to them. The Grand Juror tool: a. few hours off the other day, anr‘ went down to the Home armed will a. poster sheet of statutes which wert put on the books to regulate and res train dogs. Mr. Dauchy explained that the Home authorities were liable tr a tax of $1.15 for each male dog ant‘ $5.15 for each female. Provided then were not more than 50 male and ten female dogs, he said, a kennel iicenst could be taken out for $50. The act uaI number of dogs now at the Home is a few over a hundred, of whict about 80 are females. One section of the statutes gives it a town constable or any authorized person the right. to kill an unlicensed dog and. upon presentation of prooi of the killing, privilege of collecting a bounty of $1 per dog, This section makes no distinction between male and female; Mr. Dauchy called atten tion to the fact that the tax was due on the first of May and said he would give the Home authorities time to comply with the laws before taking any further action. What he has done thus far has been independent of any specific orders from the Selectmen What he proposes to do in future he has not stated for publication. There was a story out, yesterday, that he might seize every one of the dogs, if they were not licensed within a was unable time, and so put an end to the controversy. The Home is on the property oi John W. Emmons, a. New York cus tom-house. employee. Mr. Emmoni lives in Brooklyn. The dogs are not permitted to stray about at will. Wire cages or runs are provided for them to frolic in by day. a good sized barn has been fitted up as night quarters There is a hospital for male dogs and one for females. The sexes are segre gated by day and night. Their big play ground is divided into two wire netted runs, one for males and the other for the females. The netting is so tall and so strong that. the most actIVe of the dogs cannot escape fron~ his cage. The canines take the only consolation left them and pour out their feelings in yelps more or loss oyous and chorused. Care is taken tt ep their quarters clean and whole some, but the utmost care cannot keep down the unpleasant odor of the kennel; .Three times a day the dog: partake of choice joints and other leftover morsels from the Hote. Waldorf in New York. The food if shipped to Noroton Heights daily by nxpress and is prepared by care-tak era employed by the Bide-aAWBe lav dies. ~ NO NEWS OF HENDERSON. The police have not yet. seen any. thing of George Henderson, the Poughkeepsie, New York, colored man, who is wanted in that city and who was supposed to have started for Nor- walk. Mrs. Edith Moore,'sistcr of Henderson, received a letter this morning from his wife telling of the affair In which he is mixed up. The sister-in-law states that her husband went. on a rampage, smashed up things in the house and attempted to assault her little daughter. by a former has band, though he did not succeed. The Norwalk police were under a mistaken impression that. Henderson had as- saulted a little white girl. A lookout is being kept for the man, and he will be arrested here if he can be located.
