FUTURE OF THE WABASH
THE ROAD Is VOW IN 4 POSITION
THAT PROMISES GOOD RESULTS.

Aside from the increased earnings the
Wabash is showing from week to week, it
has seemingly reached a time Of general
prosperity such as it has never before en-
jOyed, and every move Of late has placed
the road in a more independent position
and strengthened the company in a finan-
cial way. The line the company is now
constructing from Fort Wayne TO Butler,

which had been prohibited by the court,

detrimental to the ~company's interests in
its operation. will work a saving to the
company. The new line increases the dis
lance from Toledo 10 St. Louis but one
mile, whereas a considerable saving will re-
suit. The rental of the Eel River road was
10000 a year, while the interest on the
bonds will not exceed $4,000 per annum,
and, still better, there are only twenty-Six
miles OF road TO maintain, against ninety
three miles on the Eel River division. The
Wabash is now so well located and
strengthened by the new link that, no mat

another embarrassment is removed. Some
years ago holders of old equipment bonds

10 the first and second mortgage bonds on
the main line from Toledo TO the Ohio state
line, and are still litigating for what they
claim as their rights. Should their cOnten-
ton be sustained. with this piece of new
rOac built, the Wabash would not be in the
least embarrassed. so that, summing all up,
the Wabash, in recent undertakings, has
greatly strengthened its standing as a rail-
way system.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, March l3.-The
stabbing Of Miss June Lee by Ray Herbert.
a Vandalia brakeman. last night. in a
wineroom. in a suburban resort. has added
10 the intense feeling in the city against
murderers, following. as II did, in a few
hours, the acquittal of one of the four Rus
sian miners accused of a double murder on
last election day, and the other tragic
events of the last two weeks. AS a matter
of fact, the common belief was that the
Russian had made out a good case of self
defense, but the temper of the people is
worked up to a pitch when little discrimi-
nation is made between justifable killing
and brutal murder. Herbert had quarreled
with the young woman on account of jeal-
ousy. He escaped from the saloon, but was
found later by the police. This morning he
was bound over in $500. The wound is over
the left breast and was inflicted with a
pocket knife. The injury was such that she
could not be taken to a city hospital.
The new grand jury is in session and is
hearing testimony in both the lynching and
the Rogers case. Many witnesses in the
lynching have been summoned, but it is
understood that few, If any, have given
testimony that would be acceptable in q
trial or an accused person. The grand jury
is composed OF well-known residents of the
c~ounty-three of them being prominent
merchants Of the city. and two of the three
had been quoted in the newspapers as in
dorsing the lynching before they were sum-
moned for jury duty. In his Instructions,
Judge Piety read the statute against lynch
ing. 1t is not believed an indictment will be
returned.
Rogers was indicted by the grand jury,
to-day. for murder in the first degree for
killing Batey. Another Indictment will be
returned I'm the event of Mrs. Rogers's
death. The cases against the three Rus
slams other than the one tried were nollied
this afternoon.
