quire ten miles of pipe % reach the

Mr. Mathews expresses himself as
thinking that wells dug northeast OF

available money establish. He says
that many eastern cities would De

taton, both with headquarters in Spring field, Mo, who have been in Birmingham for the past two days, left for the north yesterday.
 W. J. Murphy, general manager of the Queen and Crescent, passed through the city yesterday morning en route from Meridian to Cincinnati.
 MT. Murphy is quoted as denying any knowledge of the purchase of the New Orleans and Northeastern by the South ern He said he was not in the south to look over the line as reported. He went no further than Meridian. He also said that he knew nothing definite about ru- mored changes in the general offices. His health, which was impaired last summer, is steadily improving.
 The railroad situation in the southwest especially the developments bearing on the Frisco system, continues to occupy a great deal of attention among railroad men and others interested in southwest ern matters. It Is generally felt that there Is a cont est on In that section be- tween the strongest and brightest men in the railroad world.
 George Gould is straining every nerve to advance his interests and further for tify his position, Mir Yoakum. president of the Frisco, Is himself one of the most aggressive railroad men in the coun- try, and in addition to having himself surrounded by a very able board of direc- tors, there seems to be no doubt that he has now succeeded in getting the influ- ence of J. P. Morgan & Co., behind him, by making that firm fiscal agents 3f the Frisco.
 Every move made in the southwest can now be watched with interest. for the struggle for supremacy in that field Is now under way. The Gould system Is making every effort to hasten the work of getting Into Memphis from the west, and MT. Yoakum. by recently acquiring so large financial interest in the Kirby Lumber company. has greatly strength ened the Friscos position.
 By building through the yellow pine sec- tion of east Texas the Yoakum party. will invade the territory heretofore controlled by the Goulds, Hartman and Rockefeller.
 The lumber company controls over r. 25O,O0O acres of the finest long-leaf pine forests In the world The lumber cut by the company will furnish l,00G,00 carlo I of freight per annum to the railroad. {; contributed business will furnish 25O OOO additional carloads.

with the Frisco is that of a large stock holder. The absolute control rests with the St. Louis- Union Trust company fac tion of St. Louis. and the control was pooled in order that the present manage ment might be unhampered in its policy of developing the Frisco into the leading railroad of the south and southwest. with extensive terminals at all the large cities of the central south and southwest.
 It is not at all improbable that J. P. Morgan & Go. will be appointed fiscal agent of the St. Louis and San Francisco in New York. the position given up by the Seligmans when they sold their Frisco stock to the St. Louis party few months ago at around sS5 per share Tor the common stock. but this in no way means that Mir Morgan will control the Frisco.
 J. P. Morgan & Go. might be of great assistance to the Frisco in reaching the Atlantic seaboard, now that the St. Louis party is not abundantly able to finance any further extensions, but the Morgan control in the Southern railway field is supreme, and the Frisco is desirous of reaching the Atlantic without building a line to the coast.
 w. K. Bixby. chairman of the American Car and Foundry company, one of the newly elected directors of the Frisco, is a prominent member of the St. Louis party. MT. Porter went upon the Frisco board to care for the Chicago and Eastern Illinois interests. Richard Olney resigned because the Cheney estate had disposed of it's stock at the time of the Seligman sale. B. F. Cheney has large personal holdings in the Frisco, and remains upon the board of directors. The election of J. S. Ford and J. F. Fulton is consid- cred but temporary.
 Further changes in the board of direc- tors Is considered probable in the near future, as President Yoakum Is somewhat ambitious and is desirous of making the Frisco board one of the strongest in the railroad world.
