Swiss and Italian Trains Meet in
Center.

Center.
Rome.-The Simplon tunnel, the
longest in the world, was inaugurated
Sunday morning, when from the Swiss
and Italian sides the first trains pass
ed through, meeting at the center
where was the iron door which origin
ally prevented the overflow of a tor
rent of hot water, and which was Sun
day opened for the first time.
The weather at the entrance to the
tunnel was springlike, though the
mountains were covered with snow,
but once inside the tunnel the tenn
perature became very high. Engi-
neer Bradau, who had directed the
work in the tunnel, conducted the
Italian train, which, part Of the way,
was lighted by miners with lanterns.
The train from the Italian end was
the first to reach the iron door, but
little later the train from the Swiss
side was heard on the other side of
the door.
There was a brief time spent in COM
municating through the door by means
of hammering, and finally the door was
knocked down amid frantic excite
ment, with cries of Long live Switz-
erland," and Long live Italy" Bands
played the Italian royal march and
the Swiss anthem, and the two parties
embraced and kissed each other.
Engineer Bradau shook hands with
Engineer Rosemund, the director Of
the work on the Swiss side, and the
Italian bishop, Noverara, embraced
the Swiss bishop, Sien. The latter then
preached a short sermon, in the course
of which he said:
'The church blessed progress"
In the name Of God he then blessed
the tunnel.

Are Comparatively smaII-RockefeIIe
Gets $4,000.
A definite statement has been made
on Wall street that John D. Rockefel-
Ter received only $4,000 a year as
president of the Standard Oil COM
pany, in which he owns capital stock
to the amount of $4,000, 900, and
which has a market value of $248, 00O,-
000 To this statement was added an
other, that few employees of the Stan
dard Oil company received much more
than $5OOO'a year.
AS most executives in the company,
however, have grown to be million
aires within the last Is years, it is
supposed the valuable advice they get
for investments and the opportunities
they have Of getting in on the ground
floor of corporations and enterprises
in which the Standard Oil group of
financiers figure, have more than COM
pensated them for the small salaries
they have received from the economi-
cal administration of the great monop-
oily.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Rockefeller's
small salary, it is said his total income
is between $3s,OOO,OOO and $4O,OOO,O 900
year.

BUY TWO BIG TRACTS
ROBERTSON AND LYNCH ACQUIRE
100000 ACRES IN THE CANA
DIAN NORTHWEST.

The harvesting of an immense wheat
crop in western Canada has given a
renewed stimulus to the land business.
Many big deals are under way, and one,
involving about 100000, has Just been
contaminated. o. A. Robertson and +.
B. Lynch of the Northwest Colonial
tion company, st. Paul, have just purc-
4toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. A
tract, of 100000 acres in the Saltcoats
district of western Manitoba and east
ern Saskatchewan was purchased from
the land department Of the Canadian
Pacific, railway. The price has not
been made public, but it is understood
that it was considerably in advance
Of wholesale prices formerly asked by
the Canadian Pacific. This land is Of
RES and groves or 7'bluffsD Of pop
lar brush.
The other 100000 acres was pur-
chased from the Eastern & Western
Land company, and is located in the
Manitou country, on either side Of the
boundary line between Saskatchewan
and Alberta. The new Grand Trunk
Pacific transcontinental passes thru this
tract. s
The Northwest Colonization compa-
ny, Of which Messrs. Lynch and Rob-
ertson are the leading stockholders, has
| been out of the land business for sew
eral months, having sold out the mil
lion acres it had in eastern Assiniboia.
1t is not known whether the new pur-
chase will be handled by the old com
| pany or by new one. It is the in
tention, however, to sell both tracts
| at once on both wholesale and retail
| lines ..- III E. l.
| +. B. Lynch, one of the purchasers,
! said today: eve have for several
| years had the greatest confidence in
the agricultural future of western Can
ada. This new purchase is substantial
evidence Of our faith. We do not in
tend to hold our lands for rises in
value, as 50 many landholders in west
ern Canada are now doing. We shall
endeavor to close them out promptly
at reasonable prices, tho it is unde-
niable that, in view Of the way in
! which good wheat land is approaching
in value, the temptation to hold rather
than to sell is very strong.''
