When the Rock Island begins building
its big cutoff to the southwest from

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

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

Discharged B. & O. Employe Wins.
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

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.

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
