Az oCC1sluS OF CONCENTRATION.

The southern Railway Company
have accomplished the object Ior
which they have been striving ever
since tho building of the road, ana
which was primarily considered
when the railway from the Alabama
coal fields to the Mississippi river |
was projected. This is the establish
ment. Al Greeuville, of coaling sta
ton for the whole lower Mississippi
river country, with the purpose oil
supplying this section from the nearo!
m,nas OF Alabama. Heretofore II
has been found impossible to cem'
peto with the long established Pitts
burg coal trade, which has for years
enjoyed practical monopoly OF tue
busipess from Memphis to the SOUTH
The completion of the arrangements
made by the Southern railway ana
the coal operators of Alabama Will
have the effect OF enabling them 10
compete successfully for this trade,
and will, no doubt, result in changing
the source of coal supply from the
PENNSYLVANIA fields TO the much near
ar ONE, of Alabama. The road has
for some time owned coal tipple al

, since it gsa established, been an i'm

road has now supplemented It's SER

These bsrges will run in connection

He Demands Inquiry Into the
Reported Indignities to
American Women.

Washington, Feb. I3.-Rep.
Preventative Cummings. O
New York, has introduced a
resolution requesting the sec
rotary of State to give the
House of Representatives any
information he may have con-
corning the incident of the
stripping of three lady passen-
gers on board the United
States mail steamer. Olivette,
in the harbor of Havana by
Spanish soldiers and detec
tives. The resolution recites
that the alleged occurrence
was described in a New York
paper.
The resolution was referred
to the committee on foreign
affairs and a report is expect
ed next week.
Mr.. Cummings said as to
the resolution:
eff an English woman on an
English vessel had been strip
ped by Spanish officials as it
has been alleged that an
American woman was strip
ped. within forty-eight hours
Moro castle would come down

Furthermore, if the American
government stands it, in my
opinion it indicates a total loss

sympathy with savage human

WHERE OUR IMMIGRANTS GO.
From the Sun.

Y rom the sun.
Present immigration to the United States
amounts to nearly thousand a day. In
the last fiscal year the total number Of
immigrants was 3i3OOO and the rate at
which immigration is increasing makes
likely a total for this fiscal year of about
3G5,O 900, or 1000 a day, though, Of course, I'M
migration is larger in summer than in
winter, and varies according to the con-
ditions of the times and climate.
The general impression is that the great
bulk of immigrants to the United States
find homes lin the great West" notably
those from England Wales, Germany ana
the Scandinavian countries. The contra
ry, however, is shown by recent figures
to be the case. The states into which i'm
migrants go by preference are those on
| the Atlantic seaboard. OF $4,000 immi-
| grants who landed in this country during
| the last fiscal year covered by the treas
ury report III, 900 meant to remain in New
| York state. Some Gl,0O0 others had Penn
sylVania for their destina ton, ana 3G O0O
| Massachusetts; so that these three states
absorbed about two-thirds of the whole
| immigration to the United Staes. Mime
sofa, long favorite among the Scandi-
| navan aud German farmers arriving in
| the United States, got less than half as
| many as went to Connecticut. For North
| Dakota the number of immigrants was
| only 1,0SO; for South Dakota, Gl3; for Ne
| braska, lob: for Kansas, $50; for Mon
| tana, 92O for Wyoming, 226; for Utah, 2O6,
| and for Idaho, 1lS. ON the other hand.
nearly $500 immigrants found homes in
| Maryland, a state which has not been in
| previous years regarded as Offering many
| inducements to immigrants. Indiana got
| 1914 immigrants and Missouri 2,iS5. Ken
lucky attracted only $50, and North Caro-
lima only 81 immigrants, West Virginia

Her grandfather, of his own accord

said he, and Serena Ann was radiant.
Then her father asked if she didn't want

THE two will spoil that child" Mrs.
Wells said, when Serena Ann had gone
to put on her hood and hat. by good
rights she ought to be punished at home
when she has been punished at school,
and here they are reWarding her.
However, if the truth had been told
Serena AIMS mother would have much

| Serena Ann came in, all ready for het
! sleighride, she looked at the soft, inno-
cent face peeping out of the red hood
and wondered Indignantly how Miss

sobhed, and shook as il she We're caught
in very WhirlWind of grief. 1t was the
first ime she had ever stood in the floor,
the first time she had ever been pun
ished in school, and she had given two
ladies delights to the teacher that very
morning. Somehow, that last stung
her worst of all. Ii was, to her, the first
prick of the serpent's tooth of ingrati-
tude. 1t seemed to her that, if she were
the teacher, and little girl had brought
her flowers in February, when flowers
were scarce, that she would not
have made her stand in the floor for Il
first offence. Then there was another
reason for Serena AIMS grief; her
grandfather Judd had promised her a
book, if she We're not punished in school
all that year,
"There is no use in Offering her a re-
ward, father, she never is punished
Serena AIMS mother had said, proudly,
and Serena Ann had heard her. Now
she would lose the book, and her grand
father and mother would lose all con-
fidence in her, and all through her curl
osity about valentines, and she had
never had one.
She sobbed so hard, that she disturbed
the school; she was almost hysterical.
