Murphy wanted to get Nelson out of

him to come bcak to Chicago. Nelson
was spending his money altogether too

Nelson never before went against
the wishes of Murphy. He was always
willing to obey,and it was a great sur

Nelson showed, just before the Britt

in his teeth and go out and do some of
the running alone. Murphy did not
know exactly what to make of it, but I
had known the same kind of feeling
that Nelson was experiencing, and I

Stock Market Rise Credited to the
Northwestern Association.
New York, Jan. ia rearrangs-
ment of the northwestern railroad sit
uation, according to excellent inforrna-
ton, is said to be the reason for the
recent sudden and unexpected rise in
the stock market According to this
authority an agreement has been
reached by all the parties interested,
under which, after the final decision
of the Northern Securities case, the
situation will be settled as follows:
The great Northern railway win re-
tain the Burlington system, the Union
Pacific will secure the Chicago and
Northwestern, and the Chicago, Mil
Waukee and st. Paul will get control
of the Northern Pacific
Rumors of an arrangement resem-
bling this one have been current for
some time, but the novel feature Of
the scheme as outlined is that giving
the St. Paul control Of the Northern
Pacific, and not vice versa. This ap-
parently irnma terial change of plan
will, it is declared make every differ
ence in the world. Were the Northern
Pacific to take over the St Paul then
the EiilI-Morgan interests controlling
the destinies of the Great Northern
Burlington lines also would be con-
trolling the Northern Pacific-St. Paul
alliance.
But by giving the Northern Pacific
to ST Paul the control of the road
over which all the trouble in the dis
pute of 1901 arose would be virtually
in neutral hands-namely: those Of
the Rogers Standard Oil
combination While these men hold
stock in the Union Pacific, they have
greater interests in the St Paul line,
so that under the proposed arrange
ment they could be relied upon to see
fair play observed all around
The ST. Paul system for some time
has been considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of building a line to the coast, surveys
for this purpose having been made
several years ago. With the control of
Northern Pacific the st. Paul would
be assured Of a Pacific outlet and the
rivalry of a new line to the coast
would be avoided.
It was said that the plan included
an ironclad agreement by which each
system guaranteed not to intrude In
the territory of the other, and not to
engage in ruinous rate cutting. This
part of the agreement may be
strengthened by the interchange OF
directors. so that each group would
have sufficient representation in the
other groups to guard against any
policy that might be to its disad-
T1fare

able features of the town is the large
number of wind mills. almost every dwell

has the usual social advantages of west

Santa Fe railroad, and an important coal

Syracuse, being the only station between
La Junta and Dodge City of which this
can be said.
During the past year the Fort Aubrey
canal some fifteen miles in length. has
been put in first class condition and added
largely to the irrigation facilities of the
lands Immediately surrounding Syracuse.
The Alamo ditch, some ten miles in length,
has also during the past year been COM
pleted and adds very materially to the
available lands for cultiva ton. The sugar
beet industry is attracting more and more
the attention OF Hamilton county farm
ers in the Arkansas valley, and it is
probable that within a year or two at
farthest the section about Syracuse will
be producing many thousands of tons of
this profitable crop.

Racing at Hot Springs.

Hot Springs. Ark, Jan. Hockey
Cormacks narrow escape from death
was the sensational feature of the
racing at Essex park yesterday after
noon. The boy had the mount on
Eleda in the first race. a three fur
long dash for 2-year-olds. The FLY
went 70 the post as Tightly as a chorus
girl. When the starter tried to get
the field to line uDs she reared and
unseated Cormack. The riders foot
caught in the martinga1e, but he
chung to Eleda's neck and saved him
self from being trampled to death be-
meath her feet Finally he got his
foot loose and was thrown heavily,
after which she ran away through the
stables. Her price at once scared in
the betting.
Wonderly was then given the mount
on the hlly. He got her away in
front, was never headed, winning
easily by four lengths.
-Four favorites won and made things
disagreeable for the eight books
which cut in beside the two field
books. Fra FilliDo was the choice in
the second race. a six and a half fur
long scramble Cormack was to have
had the mount, but his injury kept
him on the ground, and Creamer rode
the colt Henry Lyons, always wen wen
up, won nicely by a length from the
favorite, which beat Maraschino five
lengths for the place.
The third race. at five and a half
furlongs, went to Platoon. the TO D
favorite. Arc Light finished second, a
length back. and Gavin c. was a re-
spectacle third. Irish Jewel had little
difficulty in annexing first money in
the fourth race. for which Idle Hour
was a pronounced favorite. Minon,
at the favorite's price of 3 to 2. was
much the best in the fifth race and

Bishop IlEI1is Performed the Service,
Which Was His First in the Diocese.
Kansas City. Kan, Jan. 1.-THE
Croatian Roman Catholic church of
St John the Baptist at Fourth street
and Barnett avenue, was dedicated by
the Right Rev. Thomas F. Lillis,
bishop of tn Leavenworth diocese.
This was Bishop Lillis' first church
dedication. The church cost $4,000,
exclusive of affairs and fittings, and
was built from the savings of the
Croatian parish, most OF the members
of which are employed as packing
house laborers. The affairs, pulpit
windows and statuary were all
brought from Croatia and are very
different in appearance from those
made in this country.
Before the dedication the societies
Of the church met the bishop at his
residence and escorted him through
the streets to the church. The church
dedication ceremony was preceded by
the service OF the mass, sung by the
choir of St Mary's church. The rector
of the new church, the Rev. d.
Krmpotic, native of Croatia, was as
sisted by g number of Croatian priests
from st. Louis, this being the first
church of that nationality opened in
Kansas.
The parish was formed twelve years
ago.

A BIG OIL DEAL.
st. Louis Company Secures Tract Near
ConeyvilIe.

COReyville-
CoffeyvilIe, Kan. Jan. 17.-One of
the biggest deals made in the state of
Kansas has been contaminated be-
tween the standardization Oil &
Gas company of St. Louis. of which
R. N. Selby Of the CoffeyvilIe Mer-
camille company is field manager, and
the Calhoun OIL company of Coffey-
Vile. The former company have
after repeated attempts succeeded in
buying all of the Calhoun company's
developments and leases to the extent
of 500 or more acres in Kansas and
the Indian Territory. This company
owned the Holman lease in the IA
nous northeast trend on which four
of the best wells in Kansas are
located.
A remarkable fact about the Hol-
man land is that four big producers
have been drilled in succession with
out a dry hole. In view of the fact
that this least is entirely surrounded
by big wells and that this farm will
hold from twenty to forty wells it
would indeed be a difficult matter to
estimate the value Of this piece of
ground If it were fully developed.
