RAILWAY MEMS VIEWS.
Reflected in Speech of Samuel Spencer
at Pittsburg,

President Samuel Spencer of the Southern
railway. in his speech before the Traffic
Club of Pittsburg has expressed the views
Of railroad men throughout the country"
said S. NJ. Felton, president OF the Alton
railroad Saturday at Chicago
THE railroads are not opposed to the
President In his efforts TO put an end to
any abuses that may exist. and Mr.. Spen-
GERS speech should do a great deal to re-
move such popular Misrepresentation.
There is no one so interested In seeing
secret rebates done away with as are the
railroads. If the evil were widespread IL
would certainly justify drastic measures.
But whatever may have been the state OF
affairs In the early history of trsnsporta-
ton. IL Is my sincere belief, based upon per-
sonal experience that the great majority
of the railroads OF the country are giving
the people a square deal
This fact is borne out by the testimony
OF the chairman OF the interstate commerce
commission. who In 1903. declared before a
committee of the Senate that rebates had
practically ceased to exist. Ii Is to the
interest of the railroads that they shall
never be revived, and to this end let any
offenders be punished. 1t is significant
fact In this connection. however that Ia
the two years since the passage OF the
Elkins law no attempt has been made to
enforce Il.
Il should like to say, in conclusion that
when the people realize that the present
movement for federal control OF rates ID
leading inevitably to the adoption OF tho
distance tariff, under which the farmers oi
the Atlantic seaboard. with their less pro.
ductive lands. will be given an advantage
over the farmers OF the west. this agitation
will cease forever"

the total Of money taken in by these fake
concerns will reach $4,000, 900 for two
concerns alone, or $500 900 more than was
supposed. This sum applies to the ar
fairs of the Ubero Plantation Company.

Consolidated Ubero Plantations, a second
company
1t Is believed that when the books ara
gone over by experts that within the
subcompany the loss to investors will
reach nearly $4,000, 900. Over $3.50 600 was
taken In by the Ubero Plantation Com
pany concern.
The Consolidated Ubero Company sold
bonds only, and secured subscriptions for
$23.0OO,QO0 worth. on which over 81, 500
900 has been placed. The consolidated

BERLIN. April 1O.-When Emperor VII.

considerable remark that he was not well
coined by the German minister. Herr Won
Mentsngen. but by the secretary of lega-

greatly ddspleased by THE inactivity Of
Herr Won Mentsingeu during the Anglo
French negotiations m regard to Morocco,
and that he took characteristic way OF
acquainting the minister with the desira-
bility of his resignation.
The newspapers here announced that ow-
ing to the Indifferent health of Herr Won
Mentsingen.f he was compelled to retire
from the position he had held for twenty
years. The minister was quick to take the
hint and did not even wait for the arrival
