BUYS AN OPEN GRAVE
Fearing Suicide, Officers Watch A.
legged Wife Murderer.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, April 5.-For
some mysterious reason, C. w. Graves,
in Jail awaiting trial on a charge of
wife murder, has purchased an open
grave in WOOdlawn cemetery, beside
that of his mother. The latter was in
tered two weeks ago, Graves receiv-
ing special permission to attend the
funeral accompanied by the sheriff.
Fearing that he has purchased the
grave with the intention of taking his
own life, an officer watches him night
and day. No other suggestion has
been offered by which to account for
the purchase.
The principal witness against
Graves is Winifred Reader, an actress
daughter of the woman who he is
said to have murdered. The daughter
says he choked her mother to death,
then set the body on fire and he ped
to give the crime the appearance of
having been an accident, due to the
explosion of gasolene.

J. j. HILLS NEW MERGER
Scheme to Combine All Railroad and
Shipping Interests Is Rumored.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 5.-In-
forma ton has reached certain admins
tration officials that the interests rep
resented in the Northern Securities
company are formulating tentative
plans for the organization of a giant
merger of all the trunk lines and other
railroads in the United States.
This new organization, it is said.
will take the name of either the
American Securities company or the
National Securities company. 1t Is
the most comprehensive undertaking
of it's kind ever projected, SURPRISING
in that regard even the Morgan syn
dicates effort to obtain control OF all
transatlantic shipping.
The basis for this gigantic project
is found in the decision of the United
States supreme court, which, While
denouncing the Northern Securities
company, did not go to the extent Oh
abridging the right of any lndlVldudl
or group of individuals to secure con-
troll of various railroad interests.
1t is maintained by these interested
in this undertaking that an EXTENSIVE
merger such as is planned, embraclIs
as it would thousands of miles I'll
railroad lines not in competitions
would destroy the efficiency of the
supreme courts decision and that the
argument that the merger was forli'eu
in restraint of trade would not Longer
be applicable. 1t is limited that II 10
the intention of the promoters TO III
clude in the new merger not only Ill
overland transportation, but eventual
ly to merge with this, under one gen
eral securities company, all America"
shipping and water transportd'i
carried on in American bottoms.
