ROADS FACE CAR FAMINE.
Thousands Will Be Needed to Market
Present Crop.
Chicago, July 30, Tho western
rnllroad nro facing tho problom of
assembling thousand of cars at var
ious polnta during tho next 30 days
for tho purpoao of transporting tho
crops to mnrkot. Nearly ovory big
railway systom baa recolvod detailed
reports from Its agents In ovory part
of tho west, northwest and southwost
regarding crop condition, probable
yield and tho prospect for futuro bus
iness. From theso statements esti
mates nro mndo of the number of
cars which will be needed to tako
cara of tho various crop movomenta
along too lino of each road. Tbe
ngonts are required to give somo call-
tnato of tbe time wbon tho different
crop will bogln to znovo and how
great tho early movement will be.
Thl I dono mo that tho railroads
may avoid, If possible, taking car
out of other sorvlco and rushing
thorn to tho west, there to remain
Idlo for days awaiting loads.
It Is hollered from tho reports re
ceived thus far that tho early crop
movement this year will be heavy
and therefore an unusually largo
number of cars will have to be as
sembled. Somo Idea of the task that
confronts tho railroads can bo gath
ered from tho Northwestern' report
of tho situation. On a new lino of
that company In tho west thcro will
bo needed 100 boxcars alono to
transport n potato crop which will bo
shipped from three new towns.
Officials of the Northwestern Insist
that tholr rodd will ko In botter
shapo to hnndlo this year's crop tknn
It was last year's. A great amount
of now equipment has been added
and business In othor directions
promises to bo less Imperative than
last year. The company Is nlso mak
ing an effort to have a larger porccn
tago of lta own cars opon Its rails
this year, with this purpose in
view, fowor Northwestern cars will
bo loaded to go off tholr own rails.
Burlington officials stated inai
they havo just now a surplus of box
cars and aro accordingly assembling
many cars to tako care of their aharo
ot tho Nobraskn crop. They expect
tho wheat to begin to move between
July 2S nnd August 1, and dcclaro
thnt before tbe flrat date arrives ibey
will bo In good shape to handle all
that will bo offered.
It Is probable that a conference of
traffic officials will be held soon to
talk over the crop movement and to
mako plans for co-operation of West
orn roads with respect to prompt
handling of foreign cars and their
prompt return to the homo lines.
Tho railroads dcslro to mako this
a record year for prompt and expedi
tious handling of tho western crop.

Now York. July 30. An explosion
accompanied by flro, shattered an
Bast Sldo tenement late Sunday
night, and within tho crumbling

Tho wrecked building was at 223

Mauy of theso woro badly hurt, but

Man Who Fled Balore Loaded Re
volver Punished and Made Text
of Speech by Chief.
Now York, Aug. 1. A remarkable
sccno, closely paralleling that mem
orable ono In Paris when Cap
tain Alfred Dreyfus was publicly dis
graced before tho Fronch army, was
enacted In tho trial room at police
headquarters. For tho first tlmo la
more than 30 years a patrolman bad
been adjudged guilty of cowardice.
He Is Stephen S. Walib, who, accord
ing to tbe charge mado against him
last week, fled from an armed man
who had shot and killed a woman.
The keen Interest with which the
unusual case was followed roso to a
point of dramatic Intensity when Po
lice Commlsaloner Bingham, who bad
presided personally at tbe trial, an
nounced that tho charge against the
unfortunate man had been proved.
Then the Commissioner turned to In
spector Richard Walsh, In whoso dis
trict Stephen Walsh was a patrol
man, but who Is no relatlvo ot tho
dismissed man, and directed the In
spector to strip Walsh ot his shield
and uniform buttons so that ho
might not even leavo tho trial room
with tho emblems of his former posi
tion as a policeman in good stand
ing on his person. The crowd looked
on In wonder and excitement as tho
Inspector advanced to perform his
unpleasant work.
The dismissed man stood still and
offered no resistance ns the shield
waa unpinned from his breast, but
when tho Inspector started to detach
the buttons ot tho uniform Stephen
Walsh stepped back and appealed to
his attorney against any further hu
miliation being put upon htm In the
presence of his former comrades.
Commissioner Bingham, who was
laboring under great excitement,
then Interposed and directed the In
spector to conduct his former fmb
ordlnato to tho steps of the police
building and eject him. Stephen
Wnlah offered no resistance and west
with tho Inspector to tho outer door
way, whero he was formally directed
to leavo tho building. Thronghout
tho unusual proceeding Stephen
Walsh malntctncd his composure.
