CARNEGIE is A MARK
Asked TO Pay a Debt Contracted by
His Mother So Years Ago.
Nephew of Scotch Woman Who Lent
the Family Money to Emigrate
with Asks Reimbursement at
Compound Interest.

Andrew Carnegie's dollar-scattering
campaign in Great Britain has devel-
oped the alleged existence of a ro-
mantle debt the iron phiianthropist's
family left behind when it emigrated
to the American land of plenty SO years
ago.
Henry d. Lennox, resident of Glas-
gov, asserts that his aunt loaned Mr..
Carnegie's mother II shillings ($275)
to help defray the family's ocean pas
sage, receiving the promise of repay
ment when fortune should smile on the
Carnegies.
Mr.. Lennox calculates that at the
rate of five per cent. compound inter
est the little obligation now amounts
to $44. He suggests that If Mr.. Carne-
gle can spare the change he might be
disposed to remember his old friends.
Mr.. Lennox says:
"When the Carnegies left Dunferm-
line they were so poor that the'mother
had to borrow money to take them to
the United States. My aunt, though a
poor woman herself, helped them out
to the extent of IL shillings, but the
promise to return the loan evidently
escaped the memory of the benefi-
Charles, because they never repaid the
sum borrowed.
my aunt is dead, but she left two
daughters, one of whom is the wife of
a humble joiner in Dunfermline, while
the other is maiden lady engaged in
a small drapery business in Edinburgh.
Don't you think that if Mr.. Carnegie
knew this he would be willing to do
handsomely by his mothers friends ?"
Meavy Wellington Wack, general
manager of a company whose services
as collection agency Mr.. Lennox has
enlisted, informe d the Chicago Record
Herald correspondent the other night
that the matter has been seriously in
vestigated by Mr.. Carnegie during his
present visit to his highland castle of
Skibo, and that he has decided to ettle
very comfortable endowment on the
heirs OF the family of his benefactress.

CAUGHT IN
SNOW SLIDE
A Train in Colorado is Stalled by
Fast Increasing
Drifts.

BUENA VISTA, Colo, Jan. 9,-The
Colorado & Southern train from Gun
nison, due here on Monday evening
was caught in a snowslide at the AL
pine tunnel, and has been snowbound
ever since. A rotary snowplow from
Como is on the way here, but 1t is
doubtful that it will be able to accom-
plish anything, as the storm has in
creased, and the reports from the tun-
mel are to the effect that the snow is
falling hard and being driven by high
winds.
The train is a mixed freight and pas
senger How many passengers there
are on the train it is Impossible TO
find out. Unless they are released soon,
they will suffer from hunger and cold.
The storm commenced on Monday
evening, and has developed into a bliz-
card. All trains on the Colorado Mid
land and Rio Grande are arriving late
in the city, and the Colorado & South
ern, on account of many snowslides,
has stopped the service on its line be-
tween here and the tunnel.
DENVER, Colo.,' JAM "a snow
storm has been raging at many points
in the mountains. Two snowslides of
large dimensions completely stopped all
movements of trains. The storm has
been heavy in the region of Tennessee
Pass on the main line OF the Denver
& Rio Grande at Florence below Grip
Pile Creek, and at Aspen, on one OF the
branches of the main line. The re-
ports of the Colorado & Southern show
the storm to be heaviest at Alpine
Pass, where the mountain snow has ac-
cumulated.

IWALANI SPRANG
A LEAK IN STORM
Staunch Little Island Boat Races to
rort and Safety---Sugar
Damaged.

The iwalan rolled and pitched and
tossed until her crew hardly knew
whether they were on their heads or their
teet. Great seas struck her from all
sides
once heavy sea overlook the vessel
and, striking on her stern. swept her
from one end TO the other. At one time
her nose would be way UP out OF the
water and perhaps the very next moment
she would bury her head In the seas
while her stern bounded clear OF the
water. and her propeller churned the
wh.sting wind
This fighting with the angry waves Will
test the strength OF any boat and 1t is
not at all surprising that the Iwalani
sprang leak.
Where the leak Is no one can say.
Wherever IL may be, 1t is not thought
to be anything very serious or her crew
would have found II out long before this
The first thing this morning work will
be commenced on the discharging of the
$3.50 bags of sugar which are in the hold
OF the lwalani. The work will be done
az quickly as possible as IL is feared that
there must of necessity be many bags of
sugar which have been damaged by the
water Meanwhile the pumps will be
kept going. When the cargo is discharg-
ed the leak will be located and stopped.
What might have happened the sturdy
little boat had the leak proved more Sc
rious or had 1t not been discovered in
time, 1t is not difficult to imagine. The
crew would have been compelled to take
to the boats which would have found IT
hard to live in such an angry sea, and
the valuable cargo of sugar would have
been lost.
The race of the Iwalani to port after
the leak was found was rapid one, con-
sidering the heaviness of the weather
and the rage of the waters.
Today her crew are glad to be ashore:
they are worn out and overworked, and
don't want to experience such weather
again for long time to come.

RAILWAY FREIGHT TRAFFIC is
HEAVY FOR A WINTER MONTH.
The Peoria & Eastern Forging TO the
come Effective March 4.

The train records show that there were
received and forwarded at indianapolis in
the week ended Feb % a total of 26.SO5
cars, POSTS being loaded. in
crease of thirty-four over the pre-
ceding week, and 1,137 more than
were handled at this point in the
corresponding week of 1900. The Big Four
lines show an increase of al over the cor
responding week of 1900, and the Pennsyl-
vania lines an increase of 2S5 loaded cars.
One of the noticeable things in the weekly
exhibit the last two weeks is that the
tonnage in both directions, east and west
and north and south. is quite equal in vol
ume. Coal and live stock cars are about
the only cars moving loaded but one way.
In the grain movement east-bound there
has been quite an increase of late, and
shipments of dressed meats and provisions
are much heavier than last month. West
bound in the higher class freights each
week is showing an increased movement,
and in iron structural work and agricui
tural implements shipments west, south
west and northwest are quite heavy. There
was some easing up in the car situation,
but so large an amount of business is IN
sight that freight men are troubled TO keep
shippers in good humor and serve them Is
plOiDplIy as desired. IN central 1Idlic
Association territory. in the way of mis-
