R., toâ€"day asked the Board of Railway Commissioners to grant them the following Sunday priviâ€" leges: 1. To break up through trains on Sunâ€" day, whore this is necessary, and to forward such shipments to their destinâ€" ation. 2. To allow of the furniture of a through service to cattle shippers. 3. To allow the company to deliver empty cars on Sundays to points along their lines for shipment of cattle on Monday. * , 4. To allow the company to load and unload grain at the lake ports and to forward grain trains to their destinaâ€" tion on Sundays, where the _ traffic would otherwise be subjected to undue delay, Judge Mabee said that the Railway Board had no right to go beyond the provisions of the Lord‘s day act, but only to interpret the provisions of that measure. He doubted whether the deâ€" livery of empty cars to cattle shippers on Sundays was necessary. on Sundays was necersary,. Mr. Tiffn, superintendent of the northern division of the Grand Trunk Railway, declared that if the Canadian ports of Midland, Meaford and Collingâ€" wood were to hold their own in the grain trade against American competiâ€" tors, the grain carriers must be allowed to bhandle this traffic without any unâ€" due delay. Otherwise the grain would be carried to American ports. Mr. Brownlee, transportation manaâ€" ger, said he had figured out that if the moving of engines was not allowed on Sundays the Grand Trunk would lose the handling of five million bushels of grain in the balance of this season. _ The case, however, goes over until October. Carrying Explosives. The Railway Board spent the afterâ€" noon considering a recommendation by Mr. J. Ogilvie, inspector of rolling stock, that the recent regulations of the Interâ€" state Commerce Commission of the Unitâ€" ed States for the transportation of exâ€" plosives be adopted for Canada. _ The Canadian Pacific,; Grand Trunk, Canaâ€" dian Northern and New York Central were al) represented, and. unanimously fivored the recommendation on the ground that the regulations were exâ€" ceedingly thorough, and it was desirâ€" able to have uniform regulations for the two countries, as cars of explosives are frequently taken across the internaâ€" tional boundary. The regulations proâ€" vide for careful packing and handling, and thorough inspection of the exploâ€" sives to be shipped. A car containing explosives cannot contain other freight, which might be a dangerous neighbor to dynamite. Each car has to bear a big placard, which will give warning of the explosive character of its contents. Such cars must not be placed in passenger or mixed trains, and must be near the cenâ€" tre of freight trains, at least fifteen cars from the locomotive and ten cars from the van. In shunting there must always be at least one car betwoen the locomoâ€" tive and the car containing the exploâ€" sive. Conductors must warn engineers when there is a placarded car in the train, and engineers must take care to do no bumping. When a car containing explosives stands at a station it must be isolated as much as possible, be reâ€" moved from fire danger, and no locomoâ€" tive is to be allowed to stand beside it on an adjoining track.

The story goes that deep wider the surface of this failure was a Utopian plot laid by "Hi‘" Meadows and his coterie of social highrollers which conâ€" templated a gigantic raid on Wall street and the estabtishment of a soâ€" â€"cial and political directorate in the city of Buffalo. Had this dream which had its birth in the Saturn Club been realized the young social set would now be wieldâ€" ing the whip over the financial instiâ€" tutions and political organization of the city and dominating society.

Locke. 1t was stated on the highest authority that Locke sent for Meadows and asked him if there was not some way in which the tangled affairs ~of the company could be straightened out and prevent so gigantic a loss to the public. Meadows told him frankâ€" ly that the assâ€"ts . of the firm were practically nothing and that most of the money had been lost in specuâ€" lation. There is said to be abundant proof, however, that a large portion of ‘this money was not lost in the open marâ€" ket, but was gotten away from the ‘"boys" by inside manipulation. Who these manipulators were and how they got hold of the money is the problem now up to the investigators and it was said last night that within a short time facts would be disclosed which would shock social and financi l cirâ€" cles.

Paris, Sept. 7.â€"The French public has been fascinated by Sir William Ramsay‘s discussion of the transmutaâ€" tion of metals by means of radium emanations, although there is nothing in this savant‘s discoveries with which newspaper readers have not been made familiar with in the last few months. Sir William is now devoting his efforts into transwuting silver into gold. _ _ He admits that all experiments thus far show that the tendency is to reduce metals to the baser orders, that is, to those of lower atomic gravity. He argues, however, that the tremendous energy of radium emanations might as well be constructive as destructive, and this is the point he is now testing. There are, or ought to be, two metals between gold and silver, according to the laws of chemistry, one caesium, which has already been discovered, and the other argentaurum, which has been named in advance. He hopes to sucâ€" ceed in changing silver into one of the three next above it in scale.
