WOE TO THE POOR ACTORS They and Ballplayers May Xo Longer Have Keduced Rates. Doctors and Army and Nary Officers Get Xo Favors. CHICAGO, Sept. 24. J. C. Stubbs. chair man ot the executive officers' committee appointed about two months ago by all the railroads west of Chicago to study the doubtful points in the new rate law and to secure the advice o counsel re garding them, has completed the prepara tion of the committee report on passenger matters, and it will be formally submit ted at a meeting of the Transcontinental Passenger Association on Wednesday. The report says: "Free transportation cannot be given to land or Immigration agents unless they are employes in such sense that the car riers legally could give them transporta tion. "There is no authority in law for mak ing lower rates to landseekers and set tlers than for other travelers. This in terpretation seems to abolish the home seekers' excursions, which all Western lines have been running for years." Open Accounts for Advertising. The law committee advises that trans portation cannot be issued in payment for advertising. It is generally accepted, however, that carriers may carry an open account with publishers and that publishers may carry an open account with carriers for advertising, and that these accounts can be balanced periodi cally. The balance, whatever it may be, must be paid In cash. The transaction must be devoid of previous agreement that the service done by either party is to be paid for in any other way than by cash. Special reduced rates may be made for Federal and state troops and offi cers and employes of the United States Geological Survey, and Reclamation Service in the future as in the past. These Get Xo Reduced Rates. The words of the law excepting "In mates of hospitals and charitable and eleemosynary institutions and persons engaged in charitable and missionary work from the free pass prohibition are held not to apply to doctors, nurses, and other employes. Nuns, sisters of charity, missionaries. National or state officers of religious organizations, teachers and pupils in Indian schools, officers of the Salvation Army and Volunteers of America, it is held, may be given free transportation. Special rates for theatrical compa nies, baseball clubs, etc., are held to be discriminatory. "They should be taken cognizance of under the party rate rules," the report says. , Army and Jf&vy Get Xo Favorst Special rates for Army and Naval officers and their families, which al ways have been made in the past, are held unlawful for the eame reason. Regarding the interchange of trans portation by common carriers for the use of officers and employes and their families, the committee decides such Interchange may be made -with sleep ing, express and steamship companies, but not with telegraph and telephone companies. It is held that free trans portation may not be issued to mem bers of railroad employes' unions, who are not in the employ of a railroad company. REPUBLICANS UP IN AIR (Continued Prom Page 1.) before morning. None of the men par ticipating had much to say about it. During the course of the evening Woodruff and Michael J. Dady, between whom wa waged the bitter fisrht in the Kings County primaries last week, became reconciled, Dady saying: "You can havet anything we've got, Governor; we will be for you If you want, us." Black Wants Cnanlmous Choice. It finally appeared that the main pur pose of these visits to Black was to In duce him to stand as a candidate for Governor. To one and all he declared, it Is said, that the only conceivable condi tion upon which he would consider such a proposition would be the unanimous de mand of the convention. This, ef course, the teaders could hardly guarantee. HE WAXTS XO REXOMIXATIOX Hlggln3 Satisfied With Vindicating Independence of Bosses. ALBANY. N. Y.. Sept. 24. "I have not sought and I shall not accept a renomi natlon." says Governor Higgins, in a statement issued from the executive chamber today. This phrase closes a statement in which Mr. Higgins explains his reasons for refusing a renominatlon. and. after declaring that the party Is In an admirable condition, says; "When the party enters the campaign In so wholesome a condition, the hosts of Hearst cannot avail against it," Mr. Higgins says: Two years so I began my campaign with the pledge that I would, if elected, have an administration ot my own. I have kept that pledge. By doing so I have met opposition from those who believe that Governors and legislators axe eater public servants when they follow ths guidance of a party bow than when they think for 'themselves and act on their own responsibility. The reeuit of the contest in the recent primaries for the principle of executive in dependence haa given courage to all who be lieve that the Governor should not be the puppet of the party organization and hope to all who deplore the supremacy of Irresponsible political absolutism. It also leaves me free to gratify my personal Inclination 'with honor and to withdraw my name from further con sideration.

Klustaloff. president bf the Council of Workmen, who has not yet been tried though he has been in custody since last November, no decisions are expected in the other cases for six months to come.

My first Invention was the elec tric fan. just as it is run all over this countrv In hot weather. I didn't get a patent on It, but see what a tremendous success it is. I next Invented the trolley car system, just as jt Is run today. I made It perfect and successful right from the start. ItTias never been improved since I Invented it. Look at the millions of money it has made for the stock holders. The stock lnrfhe trollev manufacturing companies sold below lo cents a share In 1SS3 and 1894. Poor men could buy that stock then. Thou sands of them did buy It, and every one who held on to it is a rich man today. No Man on Earth Ever Lost a Penny He Invested With Me If so, I will make It good. Next I invented the Railway Car Telephone System. It Is a system by which passengers or train crews can telephone from still or moving cars anywhere tne same as If seated In an office. It is a more perfect system in operation tnan any other telephone you ever saw. This is on the road toward millions for the stockholders. This Is My Greatest Invention Now I have invented something bigger and greater than either of the above. It is called the Bidwell Cold Motor. It Is guaranteed not to burn out. and is exactlv the kind ot a motor the steam railroad people have been looking for. It will change all the steam railroad systems over to electric roads, because It will be cheaper to run than steam and can be run faster and more- safely than any present method. The one drawback the railroads have had In changing over to electricity has been that no motor as at present made can be run 153 miles at 60 miles an hour without burning out. It would melt the very wires. By usinjs the Bidwell Cold Motor a train of cars could be run from New York to San Francisco without a stop at the rate of 60 or SO miles an hour and not even warm up and without a hitch. Besides running faster they would be more safe and sure than steam, cost leis to operate, and would last longer than any other motor now known. The Bidwell Cold Motor Is the greatest Invention out since I Invented the trolley car. The Opportunity of a Lifetime I want to give every man and woman a chance to come In with me on this, for I expect to make millions for the stockholders out of this new patent. The stock will be sold on the square. -There will be no hocus pocus about preferred or common stock, nor any mother 6cheme. trick or wrinkle by which anybody can be frozen out. Every dollar Invested will represent one hundred cents of tne best stock. F.verv share will be exactlv like every other shore.

Walter Wellman leader of the Wellroan-Chlcago Record Herald Arctic expedition, arrived here If more than ordinary skill in playing brings the honors of the game to the winning player, so exceptional merit in a remedy ensures the commendation of the well informed, and as a reason able amount of outdoor life and recreation is conducive to the health and strength, so does a perfect laxative tend to one's improvement in cises of constipation, biliousness, headaches, etc. It is all-important, however, in selecting a laxative, to choose one ot known quality and excellence, like the ever pleas ant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup "Co., a laxative which sweetens and cleanses the system effect ually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant after effects, as it acts naturally and gently on the internal organs, simply assisting nature when nature needs assistance, without griping, irritating, or debilitating the internal organs in any way, as it contains nothing of an objectionable or injurious nature. As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manu facture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth con sidering in making purchases. . It is because of the fact that SYRUP OF. FIGS is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists and that full name of the company California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on of every package.
