his plans there is not the slightest doubt
as it is already doing so.
The fight for the control of the Balti-
more and Ohio has already commenced,
and with the power Mr.. Morgan is able
to WELD he will no doubt have it in his
grasp before long, Notwithstanding the
efforts of Receivers Cowan and Murray
and certain Baltimore and New York in
terests to defeat him. Mr.. Morgan will
try to seize this road through foreclosure
proceedings lately commenced The stake
is a magnificent one, as the acquisition
of this road will remove the last obstacle
in the way of Morgan's absolute control
of all the railroads between Chicago, New
York. Philadelphia and Baltimore.
The Vanderbilt roads have been con-
trolIed by Mr.. Morgan ever since the
death of William H. Vanderbilt. The ILL
ness of Cornelius, the head of the house,
the dissemination of w. K. and the with
drawaI from active business of George
almost eliminate the Vanderbilt family
from active participation in lines reach
ing New York, though they still hold in
firm hand roads in the interior of New
York.
Through the acquisition of the Lacka-
wanna, Reading and Lehigh Valley roads
Mr.. Morgan also gains absolute control of
the Pennsylvania anthracite coal mines,
in coal interests as in the railroad inter
ests of this country. Not only can he
dictate what rates coal shall pay the rail-
roads. but he can absolutely fix the price
people must pay for their coal.
In the south Mr.. Morgan is getting
stronger from day to day. Lately he
has achieved another victory in his prof.
ect for the control of all the railroads and
steamship lines in the southern states.
He has won his fight for the possession
of the Central of Georgia railroad, which
controls the ocean and New England
steampship lines which ply between Sa-
vannah and New York, Boston and Phil
adelphia
The chief competitor of the Central
of Georgia has been the Southern railway,
controlled absolutely by J. Pierpont Nor
gan & Co. The Southern railway has
Brunswick Ga, for its seaport, and con-
meets there with the Mallory steamship
company of New York. The Central of
Georgia, with Savannah for its port and
the ocean steamship company for its
water line, has been the chief competitor
of the Southern railway in Georgia and
Alabama. In gaining control of the Cen
traI system Mr.. Morgan can run it as he
chooses and wreck the property if he de-
sires in order to give the Southern rail-
way full swing in that field.
Thus the whole east and nearly the en-
tire south are practically at the mercy
of J. Pferpont Morgan. His systems of
roads in those sections reach out. like the
tentacIes of an octopus. in every direction,
touching nearly every important point.

ROCK ISLAND CAR FAMINE
Yellow Fever Quarantine in Texas
Causes the Road Trouble.

The Rock Island railroad is at pres
ent experiencing scarcity of freight
cars which If increased to any extent
would mean an absolute car famine.
The condition is the result of the yel-
low fever quarantine in the south, and
although the road has sufficient cars to
handle the present business, if ship
mentS materially increase it would be
impossible to supply the demand.
The yellow fever quarantine now ex-
tends as far north as Houston, Texas.
along the route of the Gulf lines, and
hundreds of Rock Island freight cars
loaded with grain destined for Calves
ton, are tied up at the various stations
as a result. The majority of the grain
shipped over the Rock Island this year
has been billed to the Gulf, and the
large number of cars now standing on
the sidings in Kansas, Oklahoma and
northern Texas. loaded with export
grain, is accounted for by the fact that
Rock Island grain shipments were un-
usually heavy at the time of the estab-
nshment of the quarantine.
Unless either the quarantine is raised
or the grain originally destined for the
Gulf is shipped east, the road will un-
dOubtedly experience a famine before
the end of the year.
While other southern lines are not
affected by the quarantine to such an
extent as the Rock Island, all have a
large number Of cars tied up as a re-
suit of the government precaution

what is in prospect. He said:

BACK TO POLYCAMY.
Topeka Christian People Claim
That MOrmons Will Prac-
tice it Again.

A combined fight by the church peO-
pie of the city on the Mormon elders
who are working in Topeka, is not an
unlikely thing, for the subject is be
ing discussed quite generally and one
church society has pondered over the
question with the intention of taking
some means to prevent the elders from
spreading their faith. or at least to
warn the Christian people about their
teachings.
And it is solely on one issue-pOlyga-
NY. The two elders who are in Topeka
say that pOlygamy is not now prac-
ticed among the MormOns, having been
banished by unanimous consent in
1893.
The Christian Endeavor society of
Westminster Presbyterian church took
up the subject of Norm Onism, and the
sect was thoroughly discussed. The so
ciety declared that pOlygamy was now
being practiced. A committee was ap-
pointed which has furnished the fol-
lowing statement from Rev. S. E. Wis
hart, D. D, who has the oversight of
all the Presbyterian church work in
Utah:
Some of the younger men are going
into polygamy which the older men
never gave up. The Mormons are ex-
pecting us to weaken in our work in
Utah and surrender point after point
until we have abandoned all of our
school work. They are putting on a
bOlder front, as we have been obliged
to curtan our work and as we are
coming into possession Of the advan-
tages which statehood gives them"

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know
What Appetite and Good Diges-
tion Mean, Make g Test of
Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets
Interesting Experience of an Indian
apolis Gentleman.

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People having it think that their nerves
are to blame and are surprised that
they are not cured by nerve medicine
the mischief is lost sight Of; the stom-
ach is the organ to be looked after
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in the stomach so much
as in nearly every other organ; in some
cases the heart palpitates and is irreg-
ulaT; in others the kidneys are affected
in others the bowels are constructed
with headaches; still others are trOub-
led with loss of flesh and appetite with
accumulation of gas. sour risings and
heartburn.
Mr.. A. W. Sharper of No. 81 Prospect
St, Indianapolis, Ind, writes as fol-
lows "A motive of pure gratitude
prompts me to write these few lines re
garding Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I
have been a sufferer from nervous dys-
pepsia for the last four years; have
used various patent medicines and 9th
er remedies without any favorable re-
suit. They sometimes gave temporary
relief until the effects of the medicine
wore off I attributed this to my Sc
dentary habits, being a bookkeeper with
to state that the tablets have over
come all these obstacles. for I have
gained in flesh, sleep better and am bet
ter in every way The above is written
not for nOtoriety, but Is based on act
ual fact"

ALL WANT ARMOR PLANT.
Invitations to the Naval Board Pour
in From Everywhere.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The naval armor
board will leave Washington next Satur-
day for the south to look at certain
places with a view to ascertaining their
availability for sites for the proposed ar
NOR plant. The first stop will be made
at Birmingham, Ala, thence the board
goes to Sheffield, Ala, to Chattanooga,
Knoxville and Elizabethtown, Tenn, in
the order named. 1t is barely possible
that later on the board will visit Pied
mont, W. Va, in view of the urgent re-
quest of West Virginia public men,
Great numbers of appeals are coming
to the department from various localities
possessing any kind of iron plant to
have the board sent there to look at their
resources, but in view of the fact that
the board has no authority to make any
recommendation as to the location of the
plant it is felt that such time would not
be usefully spent.
By the act of congress Secretary Long
is charged with the duty of submitting
a description of lands, buildings and ma
chinery needed for an armor plant, but
this is not construed to mean anything
more than the submission of plans for
plant, although he may volunteer rec
ommendation as to the site.

SCHOOL FOR HORSE. .SHOERS
Is Recommended by the President of
the National Association.

st. Louis, Oct. 13.-President Purcell of
the National HorseshOers association, In
his annual address, laid particular stress
on educational measures that will insure
more sIdIlfuI and intelligent workmanship
and elevate the craft. He recommended
the establishment of national school Of
farriery. to be conducted by the national
association. This subject was discussed
at length.
National Statistician J. p. Adams pre-
sented some figures on the usage OF the
horse, showing that in the face OF the
many statements regarding the passing
of that animal, no decrease in his use
was found On the contrary. Wisconsin
Kentucky, Minnesota. Nebraska, Illinois
and Massachusetts show total increase
of 102. 9O9 horses in actual service since
1880. Indiana reported an increase Of
1872 since 1895.

OFT & Tewksbury File a Counter
Claim Against the Santa Fe.

The trouble between OFT & Tewks-
bury, land and immigration agents of
the Santa Fe railroad, and that corpor-
alton is growing interesting.
Last July the railroad company
brought suit in the district court
against the firm for $40 600 for breach
of contract and for Withholding lands
purchased under the contract.
The answer of the land agents has
just been filed and in it they make a
counter claim against the railroad COM
pany for $194. 125. The grounds upon
which this claim is based are similar to
those set forth in the original petition.
They claim that the railroad company
violated its contract and did not allow
the land agents the privileges stipula-
ted. The question of transportation
will also figure in the suit.
The difficulty between OFT & Tewks-
bury and the Santa Fe Railroad COM
pany dates back five years. The firm
handled all the Santa Fe lands but
five years ago the claim is made that
the railroad company refused to have
further dealings with OFT & Tewksbury
and though the firm has never relin-
quished its title of Land and Immi-
grafton Agents of the Santa Fe Rail-
road" they have not been recognized
by the company officers for five years.

questioned officials of the Gulf here ad-
m1tted that this is true although en-
deaVors have been made to keep it a
secret.
Gen Dodge will, in all probability,
be made president of the Gulf system,
after its reorganization, and Frank
Irumb BULL the present receiver will
likely be given the position of vice pres

of Chamberlain Cough Remedy and
the many good recommendations in

a first trial of the medicine. To say that
it was satisfactory in its results. is
putting it very mildly indeed. It acted
like magic and the result was a speedy

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 13.-Once more
the eye of Murderer H. H. Holmes would
seem to have been at work. The office of
Supervisor Perry of the Fidelity Mutual

The only articles saved were, curiously
enough. the original warrants for Holmes
arrest, and two pictures of the murderer.
Ever since the execution a series of mis-
fortunes has fallen upon those connected
with the trial Judge, jurymen. lawyers
