ORANGE SHIPMENTS
Through HIOpkinsville Heayiest
For Many Years,

The orange shipments through
Hopkinsville from Florida tosChica-
go and the Northwest this season
are the heaviest known in the past
six or seven years. This heavy
business is attributed IN a measure
to the very much larger demand
from the Chicago market. Hereto
fore the bulk of this business has
gone to New York and the East,
but it is believed to have been
turned in this direction permanent
ly.

MEXICO IS INTERESTED
In the Panama Revolution Discussion
 Now Going On.

Mexico, Nov 6. There is great pub lfc interest here in the Panama revo- lutlon and the undercurrent of talk in clerical party circles, where Colombia Is regarded as in sympathy with the clerical party program, is that the American authorities are the secret promoters of this disturbance and are planning to seize the Panama region and annex it to the United States.
 The clerical organ, El Tiempo, is in- dignant over the news from Panama, and says in part:
 Profound stupefaction has been caused in Mexico by the news in re- gard to the revolution that broke out on the Isthmus of Panama. It is per- ceived not to be merely another revo- luhon added to the already long list of those that have occurred in South America, but it is a farcical prelude to a terrible drama which is about to un- fold itself on the coveted isthm1ls. and which will end perhaps with the dis memberInent of the unhappy OoIom- bian nation and the augmentation of the prestige and power of the United States on the American continent"
 The paper in conclusion charges that the revolution Is probably directly the men and politicians of the United States expert fenced at the hasco of the Hay-Herran treaty, and says it Is but another exemplifcatfon of perf1dy Of the Saxon race.

NO WIDE OPEN TOWN.
New York's District Attorney to Be
 Assisted by Citizens.

Assisted by Citizens.
 NEW 1OGh, Nov G.-. lom an au- thoritatiYe source it has been learned that Tammany Hall will be in hot wa ter if it attempts to have wide open" town here after Jan 1. It will not be the district attorney alone with which the vicious element will have to con- tend. The forces that created the com mittee of fifteen, the body that did so much to purify the town and to bring about the inauguration of the reform administration, are getting together to consider ways and means of defeating Tammany's intention to keep the town wide open.
 It can be said on the best authority that if the situation warrants it the committee of fifteen will be reorgan- ized and begin campaign against the forces of evil that will exceed in vigor the fight that was waged against those responsible for the existence of the "red light'' district two years ago.
 If the fight is undertaken : and it surely will be started at the first sign of return to old conditions-it will be directed by competent generals who have learned from experience how to handle such campaign. There will be no lack of funds to carry on the war against vice and crime.

 Main s-treet.
 Mrs Mary O Neill, widow of the late Michael O'Nefll, died last night at her home, 1,O09 East Main street. She had been sick for some time past.

Hughes, seven sisters and two brothers, Mrs John Mulvaney, Mrs Frederick Morris, Mrs George Hardgraves, Mrs James Walsh, Mrs Charles Gensler, Mrs Henry Heightman, Miss Marguerite, Thomas and Felix Hughes. Mrs O'Neilrs girl hood days were spent on, Mill street, where the family lived for many years and where the deceased was held in tho highest esteem by her neighbors. Sne knew how to make friends and took advantage of every opportunity that came to her to add to the list, so tha few young women of her day and time occupied a warmer place in the hearts of those who knew her. Even as child she possessed in a marked ue- gree & knowledge of the trials that De set the human family and was ever ready to do all that lay in her power to smooth the way for those whom she saw wrestling with diversity. she was blessed with a cheerful disposition and her presence invariably brought sunshine and mirth into the hearts ol those who shared her compandonshlp But a change came. Some time ago her husband died and later her own health failed and she saw herself grad ually passing away and leaving behlnu a large family. of young children whom she felt stood in need of the protecting hand of a mother. No doubt she must have prayed to be permitted to remain with them but finding God willed oth- erwise, she became reconciled and died fortified with the rites of the church iii which she was born and reared. The time of the funeral will be announced later.

SHIPBUILDING CASE.
Nixon Makes Bitter Attack on
 Schwab's Counsel

Schwab's Counsel
 NEW YORtA, 4NGN. D. i he features of the session of the hearing in the United States Shipbuilding case are the bitter attack made by Lewis Nixon upon William D. Guthrie, counsel for the defendants and representative of Charles M. Schwab, for his methods of cross examination; leading ques- tions by MT. Untermyer counsel for the complainants, as to the absence of competition between the Bethlehem Steel company and the Carnegie plant of the United States Steel corporation In government contracts for armor plate, and the entire change of front of MT. Guthrie, who heretofore had aimed to bring out the fact that the value of the cohstituent plants of the United States Shipbuilding company was not overestimated. 4s
 Guthrie adopted line of question ing designed to show that the estimates of value were made by the promoter, the vendors and other interested or un- expert appraisers, and were practically without weight in determining the ex- act value of the plants and the assets of the consolidation.
 MT. Nixon was on the stand all day. His cross examination was finished and the. redirect examination partly completed.
 At the opening of the afternoon ses- sion he presented personal protest, in which he declared that Mr. Guthrie in consultation with Max Pam had adopt ed a line of questioning designed to place him in a false and discreditable position regarding the sale of his plant to the shipbuilding consolidation. The protest was angry and bitter in tone, and intimated that Guthrie had been unfair in asking him to answer from memory questions l@bout the finances of his company without opportunity to look up the details, while Guthrie had had the benefit of full investigation of the figures. ..
 Besides asking Nixon about the or ganization of the shipbuilding compa- ny, the valuations put upon the con- stituent companies and the methods by which they were reached, Guthrie took up the alleged withholding of div idends by tse Bethlehem company, an action which, according to the charges of Receiver Smith, contemplated the wrecking of the shipbuilding company.
 Guthrie took up figures from the f1nan- cial reports of the Bethlehem company to show its inability to pay dividends. MT. Untermyer from the same reports attempted to show that expenditures for betterments and new material were excessive and that the company might well have declared a dividend had it been so desired. He was questioning Nixon about the trip of examination made by Bethlehem and Carnegie off, cials to determine means of improving the Bethlehem plant when the hearing closed for the day. ...~
 The redirect examination of MT. Nix on will be resumed this afternoon, and Charles M. Schwab may be placed on the stand later. s- ...

ASSISTANT CHEFS SALARIES
Petition Asking for Increase Tabled by
 Board of Finance.

Petition Asking for Increase Tabled by
 Board of Finance.
 Many persons are wondering why the board of safety recommended to the board of finance that the salary of Chief Snagg should be increased $500 while they treated with ominous silence a petition from the three assistant ell gfneers of the department asking that their pay should be increased. The petition, which was presented at the same meeting of the board of public safety that the recommendation that the chiefs salary should be increased was signed by First Assistant Engineer Terrence O'Brien, Second Assistant Engineer Bernard Byrnes, Third AS, sistant Engineer Robert Walker. The petition was read and placed on nle. The board must have thought that the assistants to the chief were receiving Sufficient salary for the work they are doing since nothing has been heard of the petition since it was placed on file The salaries of the assistant engineers are as follows: First assistant, $350; second assistant, $200; third assistant. $2O0. The assistant call engineer of the steamer receives more than the second and third assistant engineers. His salary is $25O.
 On the day after the presentation of the petition to the board of public safe ty one of the parties interested re marked: ''The members of the board must have misunderstood our petition, for instead of our salaries being fn- creased the chief receives an additional $500. He deserves it, but so do we"
