Tart of General Plan For Short ening Line to Mexico. Will Begin laying Steel This Month. When the Rock Island begins building its big cutoff to the southwest from Liberal, Kan., to El Paso, Tex., this month it means that within a very few months the Rock Island will begin lay ing steel rails from Fairbury, Neb., to Herington, Kan. It is part of the same general plan to get the shortest lina yet built from all parts of the Rock Island system to Los Angeles and to all parts of Mexiecu Leading away off to the southwest through Kansas, alomst touching the Oklahoma border at the terminus of Liberal, the Rock Island now has a line. All surveys have been completed, artic les of incorporation filed, and formal announcement made that work is to be gin at once on an extension that will carry this road 270 miles further to the southwest, through the Panhandle of Oklahoma, northwestern Texas and northwestern New . Mexico by way of Clayton to Santa Rosalie, near White Oaks. Fairbury ia at the northern obtuse angle of a big diamond formed by the Rock Island system. This cutoff will be built diagonally across to the southwest, crossing the southwest side of the dia mond at Clay Center, and will continue southward to HeringUm. where is now the junction of the Liberal extension with the Fort Worth line. This means the building of about ten miles of new track, and will result in a direct saving of over 80 miles more from Omaha, not only to the southwest and to Los Ange les or Mexico, but also to Fort Worth and the whole Oklahoma country. HELD OTTT FOR TONNAGE. Sixteen Cars Not Worth a Special on Missouri Pacific. The dull freight business on the Mis souri Pacific is said to be due to the policy of the company in refusing to move trains until the standard tonnage for engines is reached, says an. Atchison paper. This instance is cited. It is claimed that the Missouri Pacific re ceived sixteen cars of cattle at Kansas City for St. Joe. The shipper was in a hurry, and inquiring for the cause of de lay in starting, was told that sixteen cars did not constitute a train, and that the wait was for additional loads. The story goes that the shipper then turned the sixteen cars over to the Burlington, which agreed to put them in St. Joe in an hour and a half. There was a time when almost any western road would have been glad to have run a special for I sixteen cars. SAXON SENDS A DELEGATION. Committee Sere to Learn Pate ' of Their Shops. The mayor of Raton, New Mexico, and a delegation of prominent citizens came to Topeka today to interview Santa Fe officials. Raton is fearful of losing the railroad shops now located there. Ths master mechanic was recently moved to LaJunta and the citizens of the thriving little town at the mouth of the tunnel tremble lest the shops follow the master mechanic. C. A. Madoulet, a Raton councilman, who is here for treatment at the Santa Fe hospital, was told by a high official yesterday that the company had no in tention of moving the shops to La Junta. The citizens delegation, headed by Dr. J. J. Shuler. the mayor, is composed of T. A. Shomburg, Harry Wig-ham, Chas. Remsburg and W. C. Wrigley. They propose to carry their plea for the re tention of the shops at Raton before the Here is a fine flashlight showing champion six-day rider of the world; curve at the Fourth.

Toledo, O., Dec. 13. In his suit for damages against the Baltimore & Ohio railway, A. A. Hickerson was today awarded a verdict of $400 by a jury in the United States circuit court. The award is not for the "blacklisting act," of which the defendant railway was ac cused, but was given on a second cause of aetion, based upon an Ohio statute that makes it imperative for a railroad to give employes reasons for their dis missal. Cascade Tunnel Completed. Seattle. Wn., Dec. 13. The first train will be run through the Great Northern tunnel from the Cascade mountains next Sunday. This will be the finish of one of the most stupendous railway engineer ing feats ever attempted in this country. The tunnel is 13,200 feet long and the thickness of the roof at the thickest place is 5,300 feet. Theatrical Party Bates. It Is probable that the present rates made for theatrical and other organized parties in the territory west of Chicago may be materially reduced. General passenger agents of these lines met in Chicago yesterday and during the con ference it was suggested that the fares charged for large parties moving to gether were too high and, ought to be reduced, if all the roads would stand by whatever reductions were made and cease manipulating agreed tariffs. Passenger fares as applied to parties vary in the west, according to the dis trict. Between Chicago and St. Paul and Minneapolis any party of ten or more persons traveling on one ticket may take advantage of the 2 cents per mile rate. Between Chicago and Omaha and Kansas City the rate will not be granted by the companies unless the party is a bonafide one, organized for the purpose of giving entertainments or ex hibitions. The double rule has led to all kinds of confusion, and there have been threats to bring charges of discrim ination against the lines that operate between Chicago and the twin cities and between Chicago and Omaha and Kan sas City that differentiate in the rates. The peculiar condition was brought about by the refusal of the Wisconsin PHOTOGRAPH OF BIG A. A. McLean, who gives great promise; Major Taylor, the negro now champion sprinter of America; Charlie Miller, Prank .Walier, known as "Old Dutch." and F. A. McFarland, the Pacific Slope flyer as they now appear rounding the garden, which is banked higher than ever to prevent accidents. - 4 . - - V n 3 -I i If -" f : i Central to make a difference between parties organized for entertaining or ex hibition purposes and those merely got ten together, to get advantage of the low rate. This forced the other Chicago St. Paul roads to throw open the rate to the public. Semi-organized parties that come under the rule in one section and not in another, are protesting that the differentiation cease. The railroad officers are averse to throwing down the party rate bars in the entire west, say ing they would rather reduce the fare to l1 cents a mile and confine the rate to parties .organized to give entertain ments or exhibitions. CHARGED TO A WOMAN. Further Light Thrown Upon the Sui . cide of Sydney Samuel. New Tork, Dec. 13. A dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser quotes Rev. Isaac Samuel, rabbi of the aristocratic Bayswater - synagogue in London, as making the following statements con cerning the death of his son, Sydney Samuel, the exporter, who shot himself at Portland, Me., last Sunday: "This is indeed sad and surprising news. My son, who was a business man in Mexico, left London only a few weeks ago, after spending six weeks at home. By the last mail I received a chrful letter from him, written soon after land ing. I cannot imagine why he com mitted suicide, for certainly he left here a sane, well man. "The reports that he committed sui cide because I forbade his marriage with Mrs. Ghartres do me cruel wrong. I ask you not to allow such a stigma to rest oh me. It would be criminal injus tice to a loving father. My son did have an affair with this woman, but broke it off of his own accord. It cut him deeply at the time, but his recent visit home had, I think, made him strong again. - - 'T cannot do any better Justice to his menory than to lay before you his own papers, including his last will, which he left with me." Rabbi Samuel produced his son's will, dated October 22, last, in which Mrs. Chartres is mentioned, as follows: "I longed for love, companionship and a quiet home life, with books and music to carry out my ideals. I met this wo man, who promised all these, and I SIX DAY CYCLE looked to the future with happiness. But this is ended." Samuel evidently reversed a previoua will and cut Mrs. Chart res off. The rabbi continued: "I did in a measure oppose my son's raarriage with the woman, but I left him to find out the truth himself, which he did. therefore it pains me deeply to hear the accusation that I was the cauee of mv son's death. I went to New York last summer and met this lady. She is clever, fascinating, but unscrupulous. She had enslaved my son. He had spent thousands of pounds upon her, neglectea his business and was ruining himself. but breaking with her was his own vol untary act. FACING A CRISIS. Germany's Financial Matters Are in a Bad Way. New Tork, Dec. 13. A dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser from Berlin says: The pessimistic speech of Baron von Fleischmann, secretary of the im perial treasury in the reichstag- on Mon day in which he told th country to prepare for a period of hard times as the financial situation was gloomy, has created a sensation in the money mar ket. There has been such a slump in the price of mortgage bonds that un less public confidence is restored, the economic stability of Germany will be imperilled, some banks and bankers may find themselves in serious difficul ties and a financial crisis of unparallel ed gravity may be precipitated in Ber lin.. The amount of mortgage bonds in circulation is five milliards of marks ($1,250,000,000.) The mortgage banks were the principal sources of supply to the money market, their bonds being regarded as first class securities. AH this confidence has disappeared and the public are selling bonds indiscriminate ly at panic prices. The PomeraiB bank in one week repurchased $4,000,0X( worth of its own bonds. The First Preussische Hypothek bank and the Deutsche Grundschuld bank are unable to meet the strain and the gov ernment has appointed receivers in both cases. The papers demand the arrest of Directors Sanden and Puchoueller Schmidt. Herr Waersawsky, the third director, has gone abroad. Herr Sanden's personal character is unimpeachable. His private estate has been sequestrated for -the benefit of the bondholders He lives at Potsdam and is a prominent supporter of the empress religious propaganda. Meanwhile the crisis continues and a general panic is quite possible. To avert a crash the Deutsche bank and some other houses have formed a committee for the pro tection of bondholders and are advanc ing funds in payment of interest due. SEW YORK'S TOTE. CoL Bryan Carried but Pour Counties in the State. New Tork, Dec. 13. The state board of canvassers met and canvassed the state vote.

How to Cure Croup. Mr. R. Gray, who lives near Amenia, Duchess county, N. Y., says: "Chamber lain's Cough Remedy is the best medicine I have ever used. It is a fine children's remedy for croup and never fails to cure." When given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough has developed, it will prevent the attack. This should be borne in mind and a bot tle of the Cough Remedy kept at hand ready for instant use as soon as these symptoms appear. , For sale by aU drug gists. COLORADO FLIER.
