OF a tail and little. useless wings
More stupid aud foolish birds could
not be imagined. They ran about max

end the sailors easily knocked them
over with their paddles. They couldn''
fly. they couldn't swim. they couldn't
run at any great speed. and. as foi
fighting. they were the greatest COW
ards In the world. They were much
too stupid to build a nest, and SO they
dropped an egg and went of TO let II

w1Ns1nw IMPROVEMENTS.

The S. f. F. X. r. are building an
ice house in Winslow. with the inten-
ton of using all refrigerator cars ut
this point. With this demand for ice
Winslow presents a field for an ice
plant. All ice mus necessarily be snip
ped into Winslow from distance. ana
with this added demand for ice. taken
with the local trade we believe that an
ice plant would ne a paying PROPOSE
tion. An Ice plant here would not have
to depend on Winslow alone for its

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 16.-The general
rainfall which has prevailed over Ken
lucky, Arkansas and Tennessee since Sat-
urday has ceased.
All Kentucky streams are over their
banks, and in many localities still rising
rapidly. Extensive damage is reported.
particularly in the eastern counties and
western Kentucky. One life was lost in
this state, that of white man, who was
drowned at Alamo, Galloway county, while
trying to save a horse.
Hopkinsvllle and Elizabethtown, KY,
were in darkness last night. the lighting
plants being several feet under water. In
Ohio county several thousand acres OF low
lands are under water. arsi. reports from
Paducah, Bowling Green, Owensboro,
Darlington and other places tell Of loss.
At Eligabethtown, Rough Creek is higher
than at any time since 1s47. A steel bridge
at Hills Mills was carried down stream.
Many families we're taken from their
homes last night in boats. The Ohio river
is rising rapidly from Catlettsburg TO
Cairo, while the Kentucky rose ten feet
during the night at Frankfort.
Scarcely a train arrived in Louisville

STEEL CASE is RESUMED
Attorney for J. Aspinwnu Hodge
Makes Argument HefOre Court
of Appeals.

NEW YORK, Dec 16.--The argument Of
Edward B. whitney. attorney for J. Aspin-
wall Hodge. before the New Jersey court Of
errors and appeals to restrain the execu-
tion Of the United States Steel corpora
tion's $3.50 900. 900 stock conversion plan was
made public today.
Mr.. whitney contends that the directors
had plenty Of time after the Injunction
issued by Vice Chancellor Emery to call a
new meeting of stockholders early In De-
cember to ratify the conversion plan, but
he submits that the reason this course was
not pursued was that proxies could not
have been obtained a second time.
His reasons for this belief are that the
stockholders now know what they did not
know last April, namely. that instead Of
voting for a prompt issue of $3.50 ,OOO. 900 Of
bonds, for underwriting which they were TO
pay J. p. Morgan Co. a 4 per cent COM
mission, they were procuring only a $780,
900, 900 issue, while j. p Morgan & Co. was
obtaining an option on the remaining $780,
OOO, 900 to the detriment Of the company,
but to a possible advantage to themselves
so great as to make the SO, ,0oO, 900 commits
| sion Insignificant.
According to Mr.. Whitney's argument the
preferred stockholders were divided by the
scheme into three classes. the frst consist
ing of ]. p Morgan & Co.. to whom the
bonds were offered at 96; the second Of
persons selected by J. P. Morgan g. Co.,
who were to pay 96 As, and the third Of
other preferred stockholders. who were to
pay 100.
The argument contains an attack on the
valuation of S492, ,566, 100 put on the Csrne-
gle company's property by the United
States Steel corporation, which sum. ac-
cording to Mr.. Whitney, is S344 ,000,0 ,0e0 in
| excess of the real value.
In connection with the value Of the cor
| poration's assets, Mr.. Whitney says:
"All through the afidavits submitted by
the defendants it is clear that their basis
| OF valuations is the monopoly value of this
company's business, considered as a grow
ing concern, in relation to Its present man
| agement and the earnings which 1t can
make in a year of unexampled prosperity"

HARTMAN STIFF NECKED
AveSe to Yielding Anything to the Strikers
on the Union Pacific.
PRESIDENT BURT URGES A COMPROMISE
other Directors side with Him and
Board Has Reached No COnclu-
sion Yet ms to Course to
Pursue.

NEW YORK. Dec. 16.-(speclal Tele-
gram 1T was understood in Wall street
today that Chairman E. H. Hartman had
opposed the demands Of the Union Pacific
striking machinists, boiler makers and
blacksmiths, who delivered an ultimatum
to President Burt last week threatening a
strike on the Southern Pacific IL engines
of that company continued to be loaned to
the Union Pacific. Mr.. Burt and several Of
the directors who favor meeting the labor
situation half way we're said today to have
been unable so far to persuade Mr.. Harri-
man to change his attitude.
They have pointed out the crippled eondi-
tion Of the roads equipment. due to the
machinsts' strike, continuing since last
spring, and have advised that the differ
ences be settled under a compromise 1t is
expected that no further action will be
taken by the men until President Burt re-
turns to Omaha, and 1t is stated by rep
resentative of Chairman Hartman today
that the rights OF the employees would be
carefully looked into and protected on the
basis of strict Justice.
