THE ROCK ISLAND
IS EXPANDING
It Is Now Certain That the Moore Interests
Have Acquired the Choctaw
System.
AFTER ANOTHER RAILROAD
The Louisville and Nashville Railroad Is Being Acquired
by interests fte4uiy to Inc Rock island John ".
Gates Seems to be Working for
the latter.

New York, April 12.-The Evening
Post, discussing the situation in T4ouis-
vile and Nashville, says: "All indica-
tions seem to point to the fact that the
control of the Louisville railway is now
held that it can be turned over to the
Rock Island railway. The matter had
not been determined at the close of
business today, and facts are as lacking
as they have been since the excitement
in Louisville and Nashville shares be-
gan some time ago. The opinion of
Wall street is in a nebulous condition
as to who now controls the company
but there is conviction that control has
passed from the Belmont interests, and
that John w. Gates has been a factor
in it's passing. According to the Post,
the Choctaw road was purchased for
the Moore interests. which are working
with Gates. as part of the plan for
the Rock Island extension"

A SCATHING ARRAIGNMENT
tansd That Waller Is Under military and Not Mar
tial Law and Was Not Justified ii
b
His Ac..sns

Manila, April 12.-The judge advo-
cate, Major Henry p. Kingsbury, re-
piled today to the summing up before
the court martial yesterday of Captain
Arthur 7. Mark representing Major
Littleton w. T. Waller, who is being
tried for executing natives in s;amar
without trial. Major Kingsbury made
an eloquent address. He contended
that Waller was under military and
not martial law, and there was nothing
in the conduct of the men who were
shot deserving such punishment. The
judge advocate blamed Waller himself
for the disaster which befell the ma
rines, and accused him of abandoning
ten helpless comrades, "whose bones
were now bleaching on the banks of the
Lanang," to die of hunger. Captain
Mark requested permission to make a
short reply. He protested strongly
against the criticism of the way in
which Waller conducted the campaign,
which, he said, was outside of the case,
and again insisted that martial law
ruled by the mere nature of conditions.
The court deliberated less than half an
hour. No decision was announced

IAN EPIDEMIC OF FIRES.
The Firemen Of South Chicago Called Upon TO Flight
About Score Of Incendiary ConfIagratuas.

Chicago, April 12.--After extinguish-
ing ten fires yesterday, most of them
close together and apparently incen-
diary the firemen of South Chicago at
daybreak today were called upon to ex-
tinguish long string Of blazes The
first of this mornings fires consumed a
barn containing several horses. St.
Patricks church came next, and was
destroyed before the firemen could
reach it. Scarcely had they reached
the church, when they were called to
fight a dangerous looking fire at Will
lard Sons and Bell forge works. After
Il hard fight, the flames We're checked.
Meanwhile. the warehouse of the
Washington Ice Company caught fire,
and before the flames We're subdued
5000 damage was done. Calumet thea
ter came next, sustaining $4,000
damage. A 4-story structure, having
feed store on the ground floor and a
dwelling above, was discovered to be
burning before the theater fire was out.
Two families escaped in their night
clothes. The building was destroyed.
Meanwhile, Nicholas Sehroeders saloon
burned down. The total loss of this
mornings fires is put at $4,000. In the
buildings not near each other, the fire.
men declare the fires incendiary. The
people of South Chicago are greatly
alarmed at the work of the firebug,
and a careful watch is being kept to-
day
A demented boy, supposed to be py-
romaniac, is said by several residents
to have been seen at all the fires. He
is about II years of age, and wears a
red sweater and derby hat. Three resi-
dents say they could identify him. The
anlica are hooking for him.

JOHN ELLSWORTH GRIFFITH
Clerk Of the Court of the Fifth Judicial District.


smoke of battle but few knew wha
was truth and what was fiction. While
Mr.. Griffith has never taken the trouble
to publicly deny any of the rot pub
lished concerning him. the truth car
be gathered from the fact that in the
three months official investigation as
| to the methods employed by Senator
Hanna to secure his election, conducted
by a committee composed of political
enemies Of Senator Hanna. with the
exception of Senate sst a. s91- ot
the martyred president, the motives
/ honor and good faith of Mr.. Griffith
| were not even questioned, and the vol
luminous resolutions of protest and evil
dence filed in the senate of the United
States do not cast even a reflection up
on him. Another significant fact in
this connection is that Mr.. Griffith then
enjoyed and still enjoys the full conf
dence of Senator Hanna, and the re-
spect of those of Senator Hanna's pol
itical enemies who know the facts.
On July 1, 1898, he was appointed
clerk of the district court Of the 5th
judicial district of New Mexico, with
headquarters at Socorro, which posi-
ton he still holds, serving first under
Judge Leland, and now under Judge
Mcmillan. AS clerk Of the 5th judicial
district he has performed the import
ant duties of that position efficiently,
carefully, courteously and to the entire
satisfaction of the presiding judge, Of
the members of the bar, of the court
officers and of all having business in
the court. He is deservedly popular,
liked and respected as man, as citi-
zen and as an official throughout the
district, and also throughout the terri
tory wherever known.
He has always been a Republican and
ever ready to do his full share on the
stump and with his money in helping
to maintain it's principles. Since COM
ing to New Mexico he has quietly at
tended to the duties of his office, been
ready, when called upon, to aid his
party, but refusing to ally himself with
factions or do any act that would seem
inconsistent with his office, or to as
sumo prerogatives which he believed
belonged to those who had been in the
territory sufficient length of time to
better understand conditions and
needs.
He was married to Miss Elizabeth
Mcmillan of Muskingum county, Ohio,
in 1889, and they have one child, Lena
Estelle, who Is now a pupil at the
School of Mines at Socorro, and who
has been restored to health by the
matchless climate of New Mexico.
Mr.. Griffith is past master of a
Masonic lodge, also a Royal Arch Ma
son, an Odd Fellow, past chancellor
in the Knights Of Pythias, and past
patron of the order of the Eastern Star
and was recently appointed special
deputy by Grand Patron Williamson of
Washington, D. G., to institute a chap
ter of the Eastern Star at Socorro.

ROCK ISLAND MAKES GOOD TINE.
II Beats Every Other Road Eight Hours From Chicago ta
Los Angeles.

Beginning next Sunday the Rock
Island railway will cut down its sched-
ule so as to land passengers in Ell Paso
and Los Angeles in about eight hours
less time from Chicago and Kansas City,
than is consumed by the journey over
any other line and another cut from
eight to nine hours is promised for next
winter.
Railroad people generally thought the
Rock Island would not be able to make
the time allowed on their schedule but
they have made good the first month.
Three mornings the train was late in
Kansas City, and although it was late
several mornings in Ell Paso, it did NOT
fail to make the connections with the
Southern Pacific hut once. This speaks
well for the road, when one stops to
consider that all the road from Carizozo
to Liberal, Kansas, is new and unsettled.
Not wreck Of consequence has occurred
and in fact the service has been satis-
factory all around.
Next fall the limited train service Will
be put on. These trains are already
building at a cost of ~, 100000, and 1T is
said will be the finest trains in this
country. The trains will be delivered
to the Southern Pacific at Ell PasO aud
taken by that road to Los Angeles.

preme court of Ohio and the federal
court for the Ohio southern district.
Before graduation he had taught a
country school and attended the nor
NAL schools at Prospect, Delaware and
Fostoria. After the death Of his father
he managed the home farm and lands
for two years, in order to free the es-
tate from debt.
He began the practice of law at
Marysville, Ohio, in August, 1880,
where he soon secured prohtable
clientage. Was for three years secre-
tary of the County Agricultural society
and for two years president of the state

in 1897 without opposition and again
led his ticket at the election. Upon the
organization of the legislature in jan

McKisson of Cleveland, being the most
prominent candidates. In that widely
advertised struggle, Mr.. Griffith cast
the deciding vote for Senator Hanna.
1t will be remembered that this was
one of the most bitter senatorial fights
in all the countrys history. Mr. Griffith
occupying the storm center. as it were,
was naturally the target of all the
sensational journals of the country.
