THE Ell PASO & ROCK ISLAND
Operations of the New Through Line
Will Begin Today.

The Rock Island railroad, or the FL
Paso and Rock Island, as it will be
known in the west hereafter was COM
pleted into Ell Paso the first of the week
and today 1t will be open for business
both local and through traffic.
In its bidding for business in the
southwest, among the inducements the
company offers to it's patrons is a re-
markable saving of time. The road is
the most direct line from Chicago to
FL Paso and makes a saving of 46I
miles between Kansas City and the
coast over connecting lines. This en-
ables the Inauguration from the first
of schedule for passenger trains
that makes a saving OF fourteen
hours in time. Dining cars will
be run on all through passenger
trains. avoiding the otherwise neces-
sary stops for meals. In equipment
the new road will of course be up to
date and the latest improved rolling
stock will be employed.
Mr.. H. +. Cox, travelling freight and
passenger agent of the Rock Island
with headquarters at FL Paso. is in
the city and says he expects to visit
Phoenix every month or so from this
time forward in the interests of the
road. Asked about freight traffic. he
said that the Rock Island would be
able from the first to transport freight
both local and in carloads from Chi
cago to FL Paso in four days, which is
n vast saving in time over the sched-
ules of its competitors. What this
means for Ell Paso and the southwest
can only be dreamed of. That city is
already an important railroad center
and with the added business that will
be developed by this new road the
city should move forward with rapid
strides. The ultimat te-o object of the
Rock Island is popularity believed to be
to reach the coast at the most practi-
cable point. but whether it's lines are
extended in the immediate future
not. its entry into FL Paso will be of
vast benefit to southern Arizona The
line recently constructed west from FL
Paso to Douglas and surrounding
points will naturally work in harmony
and the facilities offered by the new
road will materially aid that section.
1t was expected that the Rock Island
would be completed to Ell Paso in No
vember but construction work was con-
siderably. delayed on account of the
short supply of good water along the
route. These dry places are of such
length that they will in no way inter
fere with the operation of the road but
the necessity of hauling water for the
use of stock and construction crews to
intervening points delayed progress
considerably

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The senat
chamber was the center of Philippines
storm today for nearly three hours, but
il was void OF definite results. At times
il looked very serious and the spec
tators who thronged the galleries
watched il with breathIess interest.
Aerimony in senate debates is not in
frequent. but it has been years since
there has been such a hurricane of bit
ter vituperat tion. of personal taunt, of
ugly charges and of unmodified criti-
cisn as was witnessed today. Not since
the discussion of the resolution leading
up to the Spanish-American war has
any SCENE occurred in the senate cham
hers compare BILE with that of today
Even that debate lacked the personal
bitterness manifested at times today.
Irritation was aroused on both sides of
the chamber and once or twice personal
encounters between senators seemed
imminent.
Once. when Senator Teller taunted
the republican senators by declaring
that they knew that the statements
made in a recent dispatch from Ma
Mia. in which General Wheaton was
represented criticising the opponents
of the governments policy in the Phil
ippnes. were true. half dozen repub-
Senator Lodge. at whom the taunts
seemed to be aimed particularly. hur-
riedly crossed from his seat in the cen
ter of the republican side to the main
aisle of the senate and white to the
lips. passionateiy challenged the state
ment of the Colorado senator and de-
manded. that he withdraw it. Senator
Teller so modified the statement that
further hostilities at that time were
averted.
One of the sharpest colloquies of the
session was between Senator Spooner
of Wisconsin and Senator Tillman of
South Carolina. The race problem. in
volving the lynching of negroes, was
interjected into the controversy and
much feeling was manifested by both
senators.
The senators in their excitement
seemed for the moment to have forgot
ten the subject of the debate. The chair
(Mr. Frye vas with difficulty able to
maintain order. When the discussion
was finally ended for the day the chair
felt called upon to seriously admonish
the senators that the rules of the body
had not been observed. Such an ad-
monition has not been made by a pre-
siding officer of the senate in many
years. Prior to the outbreak ON the
Philippines question the senate con-
cluded the discussion OF the bill estab-
fishing the department of commerce
and passed it. The name of the new
department was changed to that of the
department of commerce and labor.
After a breezy colloquy between
Messrs. Spooner and Tillman. the latter
asked Mr. Spooner TO say explicitly
whether the Philippine islands were a
part of the United States.

sons bill creating a department of COM
merce, which passed the senate today,
was amended in various particulars.
Probably the most important amend
ment was one changing the title to read
the Department of Commerce and
Labor" 1t porvides for a secretary,
who is to be a member of the cabinet
an assistant secretary and also other
officials and clerks necessary. The pro-
possed department is especially charged
with the collection and the distribution
CT statistical information and with the
development and fostering of foreign
and domestic commerce.
In the department there is to be a
new bureau of manufactures, and many
bureaus now included in other depart
ments were transferred to this depart
ment. including the life saving service,
the lighthouse service, the marine hos
pital service. the steamboat inspection
service and the bureaus of navigation
shipping and immigration. as well as
the control of fisheries and Chinese ex-
clusion questions, all now within the
jurisdiction of the treasury department
the fish commission and the census
bureau. The department is also given
jurisdiction over the consular service
so far as it pertains to commerce.

THE COLOMBIAN SITUATION.
Government In Control of RevOlu-

Government In Control of RevOlu-
tion-Hay's Conferences.
Washington, Nov. 1O.-It is expected
at the Colombian legation that the
Colombian congress will be reconvened
in December or January.
Advices which have been received at
the legation indicate as much. The
president of the Colombian govern
ment announced some time ago that
he would convene congress so soon as
conditions would permit. At that time
the revolution was in progress, but it
is regarded at the legation that the
government has obtained full control
of the situation, and this further en-
courages the belief that congress may
be called together within few weeks.
Secretary Hay and Minister Concha
have held two or. three conferences
during the past week relative to the
canal treaty, and it Is said that the
prospects are bright for the early con-
clusion of an agreement aimed to give
to us proper authority to construct a
canal on Colombian territory.
Information relative to the details
of the treaty under consideration is
withheld at the state department and
at the legation.

Whereas, Nellie Matthews of Barre,

that she on her part had faithfully

that for the causes aforesaid the
Court would grant her a divorce from
the said Henry Matthews and also

And, whereas, 1t is made to appear
that the said Henry Matthews resides
without this state, where the process
OF this Court cannot be served upon
him; it is, therefore, ordered that the
said Henry Matthews be notified of
the pendancy of said libel and given
opportunity to make defence therein,
and summoned to appear and make
answer thereto before the Honorable

The only way Of keeping larg,

Beets and turnips are among the bes

Feather pulling usually comes. from

1t does not cost much to keep fowls
on the farm. No class of people ear
produce eggs and fowl flesh SO cheaply
as the farmer.
One economic merit in poultry keep
