DEPARTMENT’S STATEMENT.
The following statement Issued from
the office of the passenger department
further explains the new service*:
“The traffic agreement entered into
some time since by the Frisco and
Houston & Texas Central lines will
become effective on Oct. 1, at which
time the through passenger service
between Galveston and Houston and
Kansas City1 and St. Louis will begin.
“The work of arranging for this
through traffic over the two lines has
been a herculean task. The schedules
of the through trains as arranged by
the passenger departments of the two
lines was put up to the transportation
department and received the final o k
last night. New equipment has been
ordered and arranged for, so that the
through service may begin on Oct. 1
without fail.
“The Hustler, the crack fast train
of the Houston & Texas Central, which
is now run between Houston and Dal-
las daily, will run solid between Gal-
veston and Kansas City, via Sherman,
and will continue to be known as the
Hustler. Nos. 5 and 6, the night train
on the Houston & Texas Central, will
be known as the Meteor, they making
close connection at Dallas with the St.

that name.

New Haven, Conn., Sept. 7.—That
strong insurgent Republican element
will help to sweep Connecticut into the
Democratic column next November ap-
pears to be the unanimous opinion
among the Democratic party leaders
who have assembled in this city for
their state convention. The Bulkley-
McLean fight for the senatorship and
the contest for the gubernatorial nom-
ination between Everett J. Lake and
Charles A. Goodwin will, in the. opin-
ion of the Democrats, blight the Re-
publican hope for victory this fall.
The Democratic convention meets in
Music hall tonight to effect a perma-
nent organization. Upon reassembling
tomorrow the convention will adopt a
platform and select candidates for gov-
ernor and other state officers and for
congressman-at-large.
All indications point to the nomina-
tion of ex-Chief Justice Simeon E.
Baldwin as the Democratic candidate
for governor. If Judge Baldwin inti-
mates a willingness to accept the hon-
or the nomination will be given him
practically without a dissenting voice.
Judge Baldwin is one of the fore-
most citizens of Connecticut and the
Democrats believe that many Republi-

A Tonic "Stimulant!
The active business man, the brain

could not stand the constant strain on
their brain and nerves were it not for
the timely use of a pure, gentle, in-
vigorating tonic.
Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey
the standard of
purity and excel-
lence for over half
a century, is one
of the greatest
t o n i c- stimulants
and strength givers
known to science.
It has been ex-
tolled throughout the world for what
it has done for suffering humanity.
Its success in curing disease has caused
many unreliable dealers to put up
substitutes and imitations with which
to fool the people, claiming that their
substitutes are “just as good as Duf-

Many Leading Physicians and Surgeons
.ire at Portland, Ore.
Special to The Tribune.
Portland, Ore., Sept. 7.—Many leading
physicians and surgeons of Oregon
were present this morning at the open-
ing of the annual meeting of the State
Medical association. Prof. Rueben Pet-
erson of the University of Michigan,
Prof. Thomas Col^nan of the Univer-
sity of Georgia, Dr. Alanson M. Pond
of Dubuque, la., and several other phy-
sicians and instructors of wide prom-
inence will address the association dur-
ing its two days’ session.
By Associated Press.
New York, Aug. 7.—The National
Ladies’ I’ailor association in conven-
tion here adopted a declaration of in-
dependence from Parisian dominion and
has decreed that from now on the
members of the organization must .stop
pretending to follow strictly the Paris
fashions when as a matter of fact they
are using their own creations. TJie
tailors declare themselves independent
of Paris, thus “laying aside inconven-
ient and costlyf' fictions that have al-
ways gone with that pretense.”
Some of the secrets of the trade
came out in the speech of David Mick-
eloff of Boston, official organizer of the
association.
“When the summer time comes on,”
he said, “we have been closing up our
stores and leaving word that we have
gone 4o Paris. What for? Why, to
make people think we are getting over
the creations that we put out in the
fall.
“What we really do is to go to At-
lantic City and other places, while
we are supposed to be in Paris. That
is untruthful, unprofitable and unfair.
It throws our employes out of work
for weeks. It is inconvenient to our
patrons, and we lose money by the
long interruption to our, business.
“But if we really went to Paris
what would we see? Why, the Parisian
tailors are sitting around In front of
the cafes getting ideas from American
women and American tailors. We do
Hot need to go to Psjfris for >our
styles. Sijyle ideas come from brains
and America has brains enough to
make its own styles. In addition it
has the best workmen in the
to put the garment together.”
The association also passed resolu-
tions disapproving the hobble skirt.
through service of four trains <
between Houston and the Missouri
tropolis, and the Hustler will run sol-
id from Galveston to Kansas City, giv-
ing a twenty-four hour service be-
tween these points each way daily.
“Mr. T. J. Anderson, general pas-
senger agent of the Houston & Texas
Central railroad, and Mr. A. Hilton,
general passenger agent of the Frisco
lines, have been the representatives of
their respective roads who have work-
ed out the proposition to its finality.
They have devised a joint trade-mark,
utilizing the trade-marks of the Fris-
co and Houston & Texas Central, mak-
ing a design showing a par and pend-
ant. This will be adopted as the offi-
cial trade-mark of the two lines for
all joint advertising.
“This combination of the two big
roads means much to Houston, to Gal-
veston and to North Texas points, in-
asmuch as it gives through service
from south Texas to the two Missouri
points and very considerably cuts
down the present time of travel be-
tween Houston and Galveston and St.
Louis and Kansas City.”
Special to The Tribune.
Austin, Tex., Sept. 7.—Captain E.
Bolmes, commissioner of pensions, is
very anxious for the state of Texas to
emulate the example of the state of
Georgia in the appropriation of $100,000
for the purpose of erecting a monu-
ment to the Confederate soldiers of
that state who bore the brunt of the
battle during the civil war. Captain
Bolmes says that Texas could well af-
ford to honor its heroes in a like man-
ner. The bill making this appropria-
tion by the Georgia legislature was in-
troduced by Representative McMahon
of Clark county, Georgia, and the mon-
ument will also be in honor of the
heroic women who gave the veterans
courage by their noble endurance of
the horrors and sacrifices of war.. The
funds for this monument are to be
available as follows: Ten thousand dol-
lars to be in hand in 1911; forty thou-
sond dollars In 1912, and fifty thousand
in 1913.. The governor of Georgia ap-
pointed a commissioner to have charge
of the funds and superintend the erec-
tion of the monument. There is also
a bill now pending before the Georgia
legislature providing for an appropria-
tion of $15,000 for the Confederate
cemetery at Resaca.
Captain Bolmes also declared that
the state of Georgia is doing more for
its Confederate veterans in the way of
pensions than the state of Texas. He
has been advised that the legislature
of that state has also passed a -bill
providing that every Confederate vet-
eran or widow of a veteran shall re-
ceive an annual pension of $60 per
year, provided such pensioners are not
in possession of more than .$1500 worth
of property. The bill increases the
pensions in Georgia more thqn $200,000
annually. Captain Bolmes says that
under this bill Georgia will expend
over $1,000,000 a year for Confederate
pensions.

New Ycik, 7.—An early morn-
ing bla^e In a dairy company’s five-
story pasteurizing plant caused $200,-
000 dsmage to the building and ad
joining tenement houses in uptown
$ew x'oik today. Three firemen naJ
narrow escapes from death when their
path of retreat from an upper floor
was cut off by the bursting of an im-
mei'se vat filled with milk.
The fire was discovered by two Co-
lumbia university students who were
burning the midnight oil in thmr dor-
mitory on Columbia Heights, a h alf
mile away. From their window they
(saw the flames and quickly telephoned
the alarm to the police and fire de-
partments.
The flames spread rapidly from the
hay lofts of the dairy building to the
adjoining tenements, the occupants of
which were routed out by the police
and compelled to flee to the street in
their night clothes. More than fifty
families were cared for temporarily
by the police. Most of them were
