From the Topela Journal.

From the Topeka Journal.
1t is believed by some that the
purchase of control of the Colorado
& Southern by Edwin Hawley and
associates has been in the interest of
the Rock Island system. Mr.. Haw-
ley has been closely identified lately
with the Moore Bros. and President
Leeds of the Rock Island in various
deals.
The Rock Island can use the Col
orado & Southern to better advan-
tage than any other company con-
Meeting with it at Colorado Springs
and Denver, and another connection
will be made at Amarillo with the
extension of the Choctaw road west
from Weatherferd. 1t also gives
the Rock Island a connection at
Fort Worth, Texas, with the Fort
Worth & Denver road, which is a
part of the Colorado & Southern
system. 1t would give the Rock Is
land outlets from Denver to George
town and Silver Plume over the loop
line; line to Greeley and Fort Col
Inns; another to Central; also lines
to Leadville and Gunnison. In fact,
every prominent mining district In
Colorado is reached by the Colo
RADIO & Southern.
The latter also owns a half inter,
in the Colorado Midland, the Other
half being owned by the Rio Grande
Western. The Midland runs from
Colorado Springs to Grand juno
ton, where connection is made with
the Rio Grande Western for Salt
Lake City.

There are now nineteen crews run
ming out of Dalhart, and railroad
men state that there will be twice as
many before the summer is over.
1t is said that the Rock Is
land is already doing a larger bust
ness than they had expected to do
in the next two years. ..... There
seems to be no doubt that the Rock
Island has bought the Choctaw, and
there is well-grounded report that
the Rock Island has also purchased
the Fl. w. & D. c. R'y. If this is
true there is strong probability that
the Texline division will be changed
to Dalhart and extensive machine
shops established here. -. The
Rock Island is going to put down
another well at this place and other

A shooting scrape occurred in the
south part OF the county Tuesday.
The difficulty arose over the tres
passing of cattle belonging to Bill
and Bud Peoples, two colored men,
upon the Graves ranch. The cattle
were corraled by ALI Graves. Bud
Peoples went after the cattle, but
Graves refused to give them up.
Bud went home and then Bill Peo-
Piles went after them, and when ALI
Graves attempted to prevent him
from driving the cattle away Bill
took a shot at him. Bill drove the
cattle home, and Graves came to
town and made complaint before
Squire Hoover who issued a war
rant for the arrest of Peoples.-Cim-
arron Jacksonian.

Albuquerque, N. NJ, April a.
The Santa Fe railway company has
three surveying corps in the field
south and west of this city between
Portales, Chaves county, and the
Rio Grande below Sabinal, in Val
encia county. The survey is for the
Santa Fe lieut. off," Instead of Ros-
well the survey, as now outlined, will
run from or near Portales south around
the divide between the Rio Puerco
and the Rio Grande to point just
below Sabinal, thence up the Rio
Puerco to the Santa Fe-Pacifc. The
middle division corps were in camp
at Terrence, and were to break camp
here tonight. They have surveyed
from Terrence to the head of the
Yeso canyon, following it to the
Pecos, thence seven miles south of
Fort Sumner, and from there over
the plains to or near Portales.
The eastern division is surveying
from Portales to Fort Sumner, while
the western division is operating
from Abo pass to the Rio Grande
below Sabinal, thence up to the Rio
Puerco to the Santa Fe-Pacifc, south
and around the divide between the
two streams. This Portales cutoff
will, so it is understood, lesson the
distance over the Santa Fe between
Chicago and the Pacific coast ma
terially; in fact will give the Santa
Fe the shortest route to the Pacific
coast, and that is one Of the big
reasons why the Santa Fe is bestir-
ring itself in the matter of beating
out the Rock Island in Its claim that
the shortest route to the western
coast is over the Rock Island.

telegraph business, declared that his
experiments were entirely satisfac-

from the other side of the Atlantic
on the wireless plan. That deter
mined the principle and with his
system perfected. as it would be, it
will be possible. he declared, to use
wireless telegraphy in the not dis
tant future for commercial purposes.
Mr.. Marconi sails for England this
week to pursue his experiments.

krupp, the great cannon maker,

owner Of the greatest iron and steel
plant In Europe, is the richest man
Of Germany, and possibly in Europe
who is engaged in industrial pur-
suits. His income falls just short
of S., 10000 indicating a capital
of hundred millions. Second to
krupp, the German income next in
size in only little more than a mil
lion, indicating capital twenty
times as much. Only sixty-fve men
in the German empire have fortunes
of IS. 900, 900 or more, as shown
by income returns, and only alta
have $4,000 or more. The World
Almanac for 1902 prints a list Of
