the following trains were
consolidated: Atlantic Coast Line
n No. 82, Southern No. 38, Southern
" J No. 42, Seaboard Air Line No. 2,
and there may have been several oth"
I er connections put on this train.
~ j "Now, all of the above trains ar

I from four to six Pullman sleeping
j cars, as a rule loaded to capacity, anc
I of the total number of passengers cai
ried, I should say at least 80 pei
cent, continue their journey out oi
J Washington through to Easterr
points, and according to the presen
practice 30 per cent, of these pas
sengers are deposited on the plat
- forms of the station in Washingtor
2 J and they have to chase around an<
1 ocate themselves in new quarters
which is made difficult by the accom
modations in the remaining cars tha
go through being crowded befor<
they reach Washington, and as lonj
as the Pennsylvania Railroad make:
no provision to accommodate thi
overload, passengers either have t<
encroach on the rights of fellow
passengers or else go to the extrj
expense of securing a drawingroor
or a compartment.
"In addition to the above incon
veniences, this practice of combin
ing six or seven trains, cutting dowi
1 the sleeping-car equipment from 3'
to 12 cars at the most, the Pennsyl
vania Railroad attaches one dinini
car with which to feed the travelinj
public that arrives in Washingtoi
with a distinct and separate dinini
car to each train.
"The attitude as outlined is not i
war babv. but a full-grown man-sizi
attitude that has existed for man;
years, and if the Pennsylvania Rail
road is so crowded between Washing
ton and New York it would appea
to me that the Railroad Administra
' tion would utilize the Baltimore 6
Ohio, Philadelphia & Reading am
Central New Jersey lines, regardles
of any agreements that might exis
j between the Southern lines and th
I Pennsylvania Railroad.
; "In closing, I see no reason wh;
the Interstate Commerce Commissioi
and the United States Railroad Ad
ministration should allow any publi
carrier to discriminate against an;
Darticular section of the country
You do not find the Pennsylvani;
Railroad dumping their Westen
travel out at Pittsburgh and makin;
them continue in cattle-car fashion
then why. should .they subject th

for that matter, it Applies to th

RED SPIDER.
Clemson College, July 29.?Ther
have been a few small outbreaks o
red spider in several parts of th
state, but as long as the moist weatl
er lasts there is no immediate dai
ger of the red spider developing si
j riously, says Prof. A. F. Conrad
Entomologist. As soon as dry wej
ther sets in, however, the cottc
field should be closely watched b<
cause the insect may develop rapii
ly ir. s~>ots While the red spid(
8 will not be as serious as last yea
* /
|ll cha injury will be more pronounce
[' .-> scir.s places owing to the reactic
' :.i co' Von should the rainy weath<
suddenly stop and dry hot weath<
follow.
Just as soon as it is found that tt
blood red coloration on the leavi
and the infested plants increases ir
mediate action should be taken 1
treat the infested spots. The su
oaf -mofVinH iq tn snrav such snots ii

them. Where a plant is pulled v
it should be put into a cotton pic

soaked in kerosene. Infested plan
should not be carried across tl
plantation exposed because in th
manner the pest is scattered and tl
injury is actually increased instes

c| FINANCIALLY FAR WORSE I
THAN GERMANR'S
| (Manufacturers Record, Baltimore.)
In discussing the proposed triple
' alliance between France, England
and America, the Jacksonville TimesUnion
says:
"But we cannot see why France
9 should feel the need of assistance for
g
many years to come. Germany is
more heavily in debt than any other
nation ever was in the history of the
world, and while France is also heav->
j
ily in debt, she is not nearly as much
so even in proportion to her alibity
to pay as Germany is."
Our esteemed contemporary has
made a very serious blunder. In proportion
to ability to pay, Germany is
not one-half so heaaily indebted as
France. Indeed, broadly speaking,
Germany has won the war and
T
? France has lost it, measured by the
financial conditions in which these
countries find themselves.
The actual cost of the war to
a France was very far in excess of tlje
total indemnity that is demanded of
\J
Germany, so far as that indmnity can
now be measured. If this indemnity
should amount to $25,000,000,000,
r I
for all the Allies it would be a baga"
telle to Germany as compared to the!
^ war debts which France is carrying,'j
for France expended far beyond thati
S '
1 sum in the prosecution of the war. I
