NEW RAILROAD LAWS
RUN UPEXPENSES
Pennsylvania Officials Tell the
Public Where Their Profits
Go Each Year
In connection with their campaign
of education and publicity inaugurated
some time ago, the Pennsylvania Rail-
Ad Company is telling about large
increases in expenses as a result of
new laws.
Pamphlets giving facts and figures
arc being mailed to every superinten
dent and department head. While ref
erence is made to the increased ex
pences affecting all railroad lines, the
Pennsylvania railroad officials claim
they are the greatest sufferers.
The cost of some recent legislation
is summarized as follows by the rail
roads: Hours of service law to June
30, 1912, $4,324,320, a. yearly average
of $1,080,000; ash pan law to date,
$603,000; safety appliances when com
pleted, $5,185,000; boiler inspection
yearly cost $515,000; full crew law
year ending June 30, 1914, $1,080,000.
The aggregate of the figures presented
add $2,775,000 per year to the operat
ing expenses of the railroad, exclu
sive of putting in the remainder of the
ash pans and completing the safety
iippliances required.
expense of the accounting de
jjfcrtment in 1903 was $88,333; in 1908
IJlTwas $122,415, and in 1913 it had
[grown to $166,833. The increase in
the ten years was 89 per cent., while
the increase In operating revenue was
64 per cent. In addition the semi
monthly pay law, which has been en
acted by various States, has increased
expenses $400,000 a year, being $250,-
000 on the Lines East and $150,000
on the Lines West. The estimated cost
of removing grade crossings as re
quired by the laws of several States,
particularly' New Jersey, is $63,850,-
000. The "Jim Crow" law to June
30, 1913, cost $309,700, a yearly cost
of $13,000, while specific orders of
State commissions to June 30, 1913,
I.dded the following figures to operat
ing expenses, in New York, $233,314;
in New Jersey, $196,606; In Pennsyl
vaniai $65,704, and in Maryland,
$6,485.

AMONG THE DUIVES
IN OLD MEXICO
There's a Steelton Boy Watching
the Woodticks and the
Fireflies
ijßßii mi "%
MmmsMM
JOHN J. SMITH
With the khaki-clad soldiers en
trenched in the sand dunes back of the
water works at El Tehar, Uncle Sam's
farthest outpost in Mexico, is a Steel
ton boy, John J. Smith, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Harvey Smith, of 135 Lincoln
street.
Young Smith is a private in First
Company, Artillery Battalion, Marine
Brigade. He has written an interest
ing letter to his parents in which-he
describes the romantic lire of a sol
dier on outpost duty. "The thermom
eter," he says, "stands some 108 in the
shade and there is nothing around but
cattle and woodticks, mosquitoes and
fireflies."
Smith describes how the monotony
of things was broken recently when
a Mexican general demanded that the
American outpost surrender within ten
minutes or he, the general, would blow
the entire camp into kingdom come in
five seconds. The incident is best de
scribed in Smith's own words:
"I thought we were go»ng to have
a battle royal the other day. We
have only three companies here and
most of the men are our on outposts.
There were but seventy men in camp
when a 'spic' general came in within
a half mile of camp and said he would
give us ten minutes to surrender or
ho would blow the camp up in five
seconds. Well, Major Russell, our
commander, nearly had a fit. He
lumped up and down in the Sir and
then pretty nearly had another fit.
He was mad. He told that 'splc' to
go to every place in the hot and cold
climates that he could think of and
then told the 'spic' general Jo come
on i*i if he wanted to. When he told
that 'splc,' who had 600 mounted cav
alry, that his horses looked good to
us, you should have seen that 'spic'
go. I guess he's going yet."
Smith's letter is written on several
sheets of paper torn from one of the
record books of the historic old San
Juan de Ulla prison. He tells of sev
eral pathetic incidents connected with
the old prison and of the joy of the
inmates when they wero released by
the American soldiers. One of the
prisoners was a little 'spic' not yet
12 years old. He had been in prison
with his parents for four years. Both
his parents were killed when they
made an attempt to escape from the
prison about a year ago. The little
Mexican boy cannot speak any lan
guage. He has been adopted as a
mascot to one of the companies and
the men are trying to teach him the
English language.
