Olga spoke then to the coloners wife,

The princess opened her door and
peered into the corridor. The lights
were still burning as brightly rs dur

she said Even if we meet some one,

She led the way, and Thcrese. shiver-

stairway and hall were deserted, but
of the police quarters there came the
sound of curses.

of .Iansky. Drunk. Who brought
him this bottle of winc?'
With quick motion Olga whisked
Therese into the same room where she
had crouchrd 10 listen to .Jansky and

unsteady footsteps. Jansky. with the
unfinished bottle of ItZig's wine in his

He finished 1t. and it finished him.

eyes closed in that terrible sleep from

bunch of keys. Swiftly, then, these
two rushed to ltZig's room and, shut

This door led into small passage. in
which there were various articles-lan-

quickly chose Il lantern which showed
it had been recently used and lighted
it. At the end of the passage was an
iron grating forming Il door. and this,
too, she unlocked with Jansky's keys.
Beyond this was fight of stone
steps lending downward, and then all
was darkness. Olga. holding the

For a moment she stood there half

helplessly around her. She could not

TELLS OF HIS ROAD.
Loree Expresses Satisfaction With
the Rock Island Outlook

L. F. Loree, the new president of the
ROCK Island system, has great confidence
in the future of his property. In talking
on the subject he said:
The Rock Island system covers a strip
OF territory from the Twin. Cities to the
gulf and from the eastern border of Illi-
nois to the edge of the arid lands-about
800 miles in width. In that territory ev-
cry acre is productive, and there is no
land that can not of itself support a rail-
road There is not a mile of the system
that should not be self-supporting
The territory is the center of the pro-
duc1ng region that creates SO per cent of
the staples that make up the material of
that about IS per cent of the entire com
merce of the country is in manufactured
goods: The rest is in the products of the
SOIL, forest and mines. In this territory
that we serve we reach practically all
products--spring wheat in the north. win
ter wheat and corn next south, hardwood
and yellow pine in Texas, Louisiana and
Arkansas; cotton in Texas, and from
mines at about dozen points coal in
great quantity. Including eastern Illinois,
Choctaw and the Birmingham mines, we
should be able to handle very large
west.
Because we command these staples I
believe in the future of the Rock Island
1t might be more correct to say believe
in the future of the southwestern roads,
for we have no monopoly We have an
equal fighting chance, and with moder-
ately able mana cement the future of the
system should be assured. With our own
lines into New Orleans we shall bid
stronger for nOrthbound traffic. and
have no doubt in the world that our bus
mess over all lines north and south will
grow rapidly.
There is opportunity for expansion,
and expansion is going on. For instance,
at the moment efforts are being made to
introduce uacarOnl wheat on the edge of
the arid lands westward. There is a mar
ket for it on the Mediterranean, and the
present rates on the ocean permit of lay
ing it down at Genoa as cheaply as the
Russians can put it there. From the gulf
ports in the trade wind belt there will al
n a Al
the year round transportation from these
ports to Europe will be cheaper than from
North Atlantic ports.
"On the whole the result of my first
trip over part of the Rock Island has
been that I have a decidedly satisfactory

men is that the higher UP in the ranks
of officials they go in search Of infor-
nation, the better is the treatment ac-
corded them. The president of the rail-
road is generally more courteous and
respectful to newspaper men than the
yardmaster who is just feeling the dig
nifty of his position. The men who are
just getting their feet on the official
ladder have been taught to believe that
newspaper reporters are man-destroy-
ing monsters who are perpetua1ly hunt
ing for a chance to do up somebody.
Railroad officials who are keeping up
to date are coming to adopt the plan
of telling the truth to the newspapers
and then holding the newspapers re-
sponsible for printing the truth. This
is a great deal better than former ar
rangements where the railroad men aSc
sumed that all newspapers are liars,
and the newspaper men credited the
same delightful char acteristic to the
officials.
