IT is A WINNER
PROPOSITION TO BUILD THE ELE-
VAIOR A BIG SUCCESS.

Mr. Imboden Is Now Doing Some Fine
Work by Writing Personal Letters Lay
ing the Project TersIey Before business
Meu-They are Catching on and Meet
ing With the Most FIattering Results
Railroads Have Assured Satisfactory
Rates When the Proposed Elevator Is
Mr. Infboden of the Galveston Export
company, the gentleman who is at the
head of the elevator project in this
city, has adopted another additional
means of presenting the advantages
of his proposition TO the public. He has
employed stenographers and is sending
personal letters TO every prominent bus
ness man in the state in the surround
ing commercial and producing terrific
ry. In this letter he shows them very
clearly and concisely the value OF an ell
evator AT a central point-one with
sufficient capacity to handle the grain
of the territory.
Mr. Imboden is not working in the
dark or in the absence of guarantee
that what he proposes will be made
good. The great issue in the whole
thing is freight rates. The Galveston
Export company have assurances that
when the elevator is built the railroads
will make rates TO enable them to han
die the business so that Galveston can
compete with New Orleans or any other
port for the export trade of Kansas and
the west. The fact is that such assur-
ances were unnecessary to be made on
the part of the railroads. The elevator
itself is the best assurance Of that for
when there are 700,0 900 bushels OF grain
to be moved the railroads will move il
and will make the rates 10 do the bust
ness. That one point is certain. Then
again there will be competition for
the export of it and New Orleans and
Galveston will contest for it, and make
the rates TO get it.
In his letters TO bankers and bust
ness men Mr.. Imboden is presenting al
the facts in such logical array that they
are easily comprehended and il is sur
prising the enthusiasm they manifest
in the project-in their letters TO Mr..
Imboden. The fact is that he is get
ting nearly as many letters daily as he
is sending out which indicates that the
people are alive to the Importance OF
the elevator. Mr.. Imboden is a thor
ough grain man and if he manages his
private business as carefully and prac-
tically as he does this project he is now
on ii is not at all surprising that he is
the successful business man that he is
rated to be. He will not let up an iota
and from now on he will push thematter
stronger and more convincing than ever

BERLIN, March 9.-The long visits of

ambassador on Saturday have given an
impulse to speculation in the press and In

this week to Berlin OF Count Goluohowski,
the Austrian minister Of foreign affairs,
and the future rotations Of Italy to the
dreibund. which are undoubtedly the sub
iect Of Count Goluohowskis s mission. The
papers generally counsel Italy to make the
utmost sacrifice to save her honor, and
they hint that Germany and Austria will
support this policy.

contends that 1taly's poBfton would not
be weakened II she withdrew from the
