It If not often that a passenger
train carries as many as seventeen
cars at one time but southbound
Coast Line train No. 88 performed
the feat yesterday. The reason fot
the extra cars was that the road was
operating an annual excursion from

Ida. The seventeen cars were han
dled on No. 89*a regular schedule too.

According to the information from
Atlanta, President E. T. Lamb of the

saying: “In the time of peace pro

the railroad line is not what the rail*
roads would like It to be just now,
none of the roads are losing any op
portunlty to get in shape for the rush
business that Js certain to come.
It Is rather early In the season to
talk of the tourist business but the
gossip is to the effect that the roads
of the South will have their hands
full this winter. The opinion
freely expressed is that the thousands
of rich Americans forced to corn-
homo by tho European war will
spend the winter moving around over
their homo country and naturally tha
South will get the bulk of such
travel.

HB B
Washington, D. C., Sept. 24.—The
Russian foreign office has authorized
the Russian ambassador. George IUk-
hmetloff, to negotiate a peace com
mission treaty with the United States.
The announcement was received by
Secretary Bryan today In a dispatch
from the American embassy In Petro-
grad.
8iml!ar treaties, signed last week
between the United States and Great
Urltaln, France, China and Spain were
recommended to the senate for ratifi
cation by the foreign relations com
mittee. Little opposition Is expected.
Washington, D. C., Sept. S3.—Rus
sia's manifestation of friendship for
the Unltod States, expressed In her
announced Intention of signing a
peace commission treaty, may lead to
negotiations for a treaty of commerce
and navigation to replace the one ao-
rogatod during the Taft administra
tion.
This was the view of many diplo
mats and officiate when It became
known that Secretary Bryan had re
ceived word of the Intention of the
Russian government to negotiate a
treaty along the tame lines as those
with Great Britain, France, Spain and
China, reported favorably today by
the senate. Those treaties would sub
mit all disputes that'cannot be set
tled by diplomacy to a permanent
commission for Investigation daring
» period of one year, and are regard
ed by the Washington government aa
a practical safeguard against the sud
den outbreak of war.
Officials expressed .the view that
Rom la's reported modification
stringent regulations against th# Jsws
because of thel rloyalty to the gov
ernment to Its struggle in the present
European war, might pave the way
for an understanding for a nsw trea
ty. The other treaty waa denounced
by congress and became Inoperative
January L 111*.
Secretary Bryan announced
night that 8weeden had agreed to sign
a peace commteeloe treaty along the
same lines of those previously signed
with other nations. This brings the
number of peace treatise up to twenty-
eight. Including those negotiated and
In process of consumation. Ketthei
Germany nor Japan haa signified a
willingness to sign similar pacts as
yet. but the subject Is under consider
ation by them.
Washington, D. C., Sept. 24.—Secre
tary McAdoo last night adopted strin
gent measures to urge national banks
to extend legitimate credit and charge
normal Interest rates on loans. He
telegraphed to ten national banks In
the four reserve cities in the south
that their requests for additional crop-
moving funds from the federal gov
ernment would not be granted at this
time, and made It clear that his action
was taken In connection with heports
of excessive Interest rates and re
striction of credits.
In a statement made public with the
telegram, Mr. .McAdoo declared thers
was an extraordinary hoarding of
money by banks throughout the conn
•try and piling up of reserves without
occasion. He said reports to the
comptroller of the currency showed
money hoardig had been carried by
banks to an extreme degree, and an
nounced that he expected to focus at
tention upon the guilty banka by issu
ing a dally Hat of those with excessive
Although the federal government
haa no power over state banks or
trust companies, the secretary ex
plained atato bank superintendents
would be asked to furnish available
Information on money hoarding in
such Inatltutions. He characterized
money hoarding by banks as the agen
cy most likely to impair confidence
and injure business.
RIGID ECONOMY STARTED
IIY r. S. GOVERNMENT.
Chicago, Sept. 24.—John Callan
O'Loughlin, In his Washington letter
to The Herald today says:
The administration is to impose the
most rigid economy upon the govern
ment during the next fiscal year.
The preparation of estimates for
the expenses of the government for
that period has begun in every depart
ment. It Is realized that even If the
war should end during the coming
winter the exhausted effect upon Eu
rope will prevent an early recurrence
of Industrial activity. This means
Importations will remain at a com
paratively low figure. If the war
chould continue, customs receipts will
fall.
Moreover, tho President and his ald-
visets are anxious to bring about as
early as possible the repeal of the
emergency taxes which will be enact
ed within a month.
Democrats_ are apprehensive of the
poltlcal eftf^t of the proposed war
tax legislation which will bring $105,-
