RAILROADS
Conference of Passenger
Agents to Consider World S
Fair Question

Nearly all the passenger agents of
the Pennsylvania lines west were
present at the conference which took
place at ST. Louis Saturday to take
up the world 5 fair question. There
were about fifty Pennsylvania repre-
sentatives there from twenty states in
the Union. General Passenger Agent
f. A. Ford presided at the meeting,
the object of which was to acquaint
the passenger agents with the situa-
tion at ST. Louis and instruct them
in regard to handling business during
the exposition.
The travel over the Pennsylvania
lines will be exceedingly great, as it Is
the shortest line direct to St. Louis.
The question Of rates, the one IN
which most people are most great
ly interested, did not enter into the
discussion, as this matter will be de-
cided at meeting Of the general pas
senger agents of all the roads some
time this month.

FLY THE COOP"
THE SAME DA
Mrs. Underhill Receives Message
From Her Husband Denying
the Charge

Alfred Clarkson Underhill left the
city last Thursday with a brass band
accompaniment, and, on the same day.
neighbor Of his with whom he
seemed quite familiar, left in the same
way on the same day. The rumor
fast spread about the city that the
pair had eloped, and it soon becamd
neighborhood gossip.
Mrs Underhill was seen this morn
ing by Palladium representative and
asked her opinion concerning the re-
ports She stated she had no knowl-
edge of Mr.. Underhill's going away
with the Fawcet woman until Friday,
and the news surprised her very much,
as Mr. Underhill had told her he was
going to ST. Louis to buy stock, as
has been his custom for several years.
Shortly after receiving the news OF
her husband s elopement with the
Fawcet woman Underhill called her
up over the long distance phone and
told her he was In Cincinnati.
She told him of the rumor afloat IN
the neighborhood and he vigorously
denied it, saying he had not seen the
| Fawcet woman.
Later she received a postal card
from her husband, saying he was IN
/ Cincinnati at c. H. Daters & Co. s
commission firm at the stock yards.
He also stated he had been with two
Richmond people, one a lady whom
he said was Mrs. Ashner, formerly q
neighbor of theirs, and the other was
Mr.. Medsker. He also stated he was
going on to ST. Louis to attend to
business.
A letter was received today from
Mrs. Fawcet stating she was in Day
ton, Ohio, working in a restaurant.
iShe stated the reason she left her
husband he was cruel to her
The last heard from Underhill he
was on his way to Lexington. Ky.
Further than this nothing is known
of the affair.
Mrs. Underhill feels very badly
over the unfortunate incident and
hopes it will come out we'll III the
end.

RICHMOND MEN

SHOW ROCK ISLAND PEOPLE
HOW TO RUN A ROAD

RAILROAD TRIO
Miller, Downing, Crockett, Conduct
New Men Over Vans System.
The Terre Haute Tribune of yester-

The Terre Haute Tribune Of yester-
day tells of the visit Of Rock Island
people to the Vandalia to see how
things We're run:
General Superintendent Slifer of
the Rock Island system, and Superin-
tendent Melcher of the Illinois divis-
ion of the system, arrived in the city
last night in a private car, and today
with Superintendent Downing of the
Vandalia, inspected the Van S termi-
nal facilities here, the east yards, and
other portions of the Vandalia in this
vicinity in view of getting informa-
tion regarding the workings of the
Vandaha at this point. The party
left the Union Station at clock in
a special car to visit the yards where
the "hump' was seen in operation.
The regular force of seven men at the
"hump' was increased to ten, and
for some time the party of officials
watched the members of the C rev
ride heavy ears down the big slope,
and switch them The visiting off
cials were loud in in their praise of
the manner in which it is operated,
and also praised the terminal faeili-
ties of the VandaIia at this point.
The visit is evidently the result Of
the appointment Of Harry l. Miller
as general manager. Of the Rock Is
land system and of J. o. Crockett as
assistant general manager, as these
two men are familiar with the opera
tions of the Vandalia here, and hence
decided to have their officials see how
the road is located In Terre Haute
and vicinity, which also goes to show
that the road is in excellent condi-
ton here The visit may also have
the effect of the Rock Island copying
after the Vandalia in several depart
ments.
The four repair tracks of the Van
dalia located at thirteenth street are
to be taken up soon, and placed IN the
east yards where all the repair work
will be done hereafter. This move is
made so that the Vandalia viii have
more room at Thirteenth street.

MUST EARN
THE LAURELS
State That Beats indiana Farm
Display at World Fair
Must W in the Honor.

Indianapolis, Jan. 25. = eff any
other state has a better agricultural
display than Indiana at the exposition
it will be simply because the state
has larger and better agricultural re-
sources than we have' This was the
statement made by Chairman W. W.
Stevens of the agricultural committee
of the Indiana worlds fair commits
sion while here yesterday.
.'The fact Of the matter is that our
county agents who have charge of the
work of collecting the farm exhibits
are an excellent class Of men and they
have been doing fine work IN the
way Of arranging for exhibits. The
displays Of grasses, grains and other
farm products which they have will
excel anything of the kind that ever
was gathered from Indiana.
'.There is not a county that has
fallen down III this work. The farm
ers. too, as the reports show, are
taking an active interest in the sub
iect Of making exhibits. Wherever a
/ farmer has something Wnleh ne
thinks is worth sending to the expo
sition he has offered It to the agents
and they have reported it to me.
.tThis display Of farm products
will be entirely independent of the
special corn show Of which Clore q
Overstreet have charge. 1t aims
simply to display the resources Of our
farms. The agents have done very
well and if any other state carries off
the palm it will be because it has
better products than has Indiana and
not because the collectors have done
better or more faithful work. l can
not conceive how this will come to
pass, though, and | believe the In
diana farmer will win fame and prlz-
es for themselves wherever any are
offered.
