) CONSOLIDATION PROB

THINKS CONSOLIDATION PROB
ABLE.
citizen of FIT. Worth. who is asso-
ciated with the r. & P. says that the
visit OF President George Gould of the
T. a. p. TO New Orleans may have some
important significance as he was to
meet there some of the leading rep
resentatives of other big railroad sys-
TENS He thinks it probable that this
meeting might have something to do
with the big railroad consolidation
schemes that so much has been written
about
He says he does not think it true
that the consolidation plans have been
abandoned but on the other hand he
thinks they will be carried out and
that the time is not far off when at
least four big consultations will be ac-
complished. One will include the roads
in the north and east. north of the
Ohio river; another will be composed
of the roads in the south and east.
south of the Ohio; a third will be
made up of northwestern roads. which
lie north of the Missouri river. and the
fourth will be in the southwest.
President Gould was in New Orleans
Saturday and was expected in Fl.
Worth today. He is expected to come
on to FL Paso and 1T is probable that
arrangements have been made where
by he will arrive here on the same day
on which President Hays of the S. p.
will arrive from New Orleans. which
day is not yet known for sure.
SMASHED IN THE JAW
In an accident that happened in the
G. Fl. round house this morning about

He and some other workmen were
removing a spring from an engine. He
was at the side of the engine and the
others were under it. He had bar I'M
der the spring and was prying. The
men under the engine did not know he
was prying and they Jared the spring
loose
When the spring gave way McDon-
ough's bar was released with a jerk
and it flew up and smote him on the
jaw. knocking him senseless- DR..
Wright was called and dressed the
wound and had the injured man re-
moved to his home. The doctor says

soon recover from the shock and the
wound.

Speaking of the scandals a promi-

department at Manila, was not impli-
Gated. He said that Colonel Woodruff
was one Of the ablest men in the
service, and that his honesty was I'M
questioned. He asserted that Colonel
Woodruff was ignorant Of the fact that
Harold M. Pitt, manager Of Evans u
Co., the army contractors, was
leasing him the house in which he
lived for much less rental than Pitt
had paid therefor.
Upon discovering this Colonel Wood
ruff Immediately vacated the house
Pitt is alleged to have said that Cap
tain Read, of the commissary depart
ment, deceived Colonel Woodruff, who

honest. The irregularities in COM
missary matters were first attributed
to Captain Reads unfamiliarity with
commissary work. Colonel Woodruff
was reluctant to believe that frauds
were being perpetrated, but the facts
disclosed caused him to give Captain
Read a most severe reprimand and to
begin an investigation which may in
volve according to the prominent
army officer previously referred toy the
examination of Captain Davis, who
was the depot commissary before Cap
tain Read, but who was sent home on
sick leave.

HORSE THIEVES IN BRIs toll.
Valuable Mare Belonging to c. A. Tarbell
ia Taken Tuesday Might

Horse thieves are again at work in
Henosha county, and Sheriff Whitcher
was notified this morning that valu-
able bay mare, owned by C. A. Tarbe1l,
had been stolen during the night from
the latter farm in the town of Bristol.
The animal had been left in the stable
Tuesday night, and this morning it
was discovered she was missing.
Two prints on the wet road show
that the horse had been led away by
unknown parties. Every effort is
being made to locate it and the guilty
parties, but thus far no trace of either
has been found.
1t is thought possible that gang of
thieves has been working toward Chi
cago, and the police of that city have
been notified to keep a close watch for
the fugitives.

Will Sever Her Connection.

Teacher of Mathematics in the High School
Will Sever Her Connection.
It is reported this afternoon that
Miss Martina Erickson, for many years
a teacher in the High school, will sever
her connection with the Kenosha
schools at the close of the present year.
With the severance Of her connection
with the Kenosha schools Miss Erick-
son will go to the state university to
take a postgraduate course and lit
herself for higher grade of work.
Miss Erickson, since her connection
with the Kenosha school, has brought
the mathematical department of the
High school to a degree of perfection
seldom reached in high schools. This
department of the schools has been
considered the best department of the
kind in the state by the state inspec-
tors and Miss Erickson has received
high praise for her work.
Miss Erickson will be greatly missed
in the schools, as she has always taken
great interest in the affairs of the
pupils and has been prime favorite
among them. It is possible that Miss
Erickson may return to Kenosha after
her work in the university is completed
but she will not be connected with the
schools during the coming year.
