RAILROAD FEARS STORM
only Days supply of Coal in Southern
Pacifc's Nevada Bunkers

RENO, Nov 24-If a storm occurs in
Nevada. al this time according TO Divi-
sion superintendent E c. Manson, who
arrived here today in his special car
from salt Lake, the Southern Pacific
will be tied up completely. The rail-
road has only twenty-four hours sup
ply of coal on hand.
Seven oil-burners were sent east from
Sparks today to take the place OF coal
burning engines, which are out Of use
because Of inability TO secure a supply
OF fuel Even the oil-burners are
thought TO be futile now The Southern
Pacific has no oil on its line east of
Sparks and If the engines consume the
supply before Winnemucca is reached
the trains viii be dead.
Manson denied that the Southern Pa
cilc was responsible for the coal short
age in this state. He said cars could
bc obtained 10 haul fuel II the mines in
Utah or Wyoming and Colorado could
supply IL 4 He asserted that coal viii
get the right Of way hereafter in
preference to all other classes Of
freight This order, he said. had been
sent TO the stations along the line from
the headquarters at Salt Lake.

RAILROAD MAN DENoUNCES
THE PRACTICE OF REBATING
Says He Would Like to See All Of
tenders Get Fifty Years In
the Penifeutfary

KANSAS CITY. Nov. 24.--Arthur Z.
Stllwell, president OF the Kansas City,
Mexico and Orient Railroad. address
ing the Railroad Club here last night,
denounced the practice of rebating. He
said:
~Of all crimes in the. whole. category,
the rebating crime is the most unjust.
Relating strikes at the people-the
fountain-head of the rights delegated
to the average railroad. The hired
assassin of old may be pictured as a
white-robed saint compared with the
rebater. Relating is a crime for which
no punishment is too severe. I'd like
to see the rebater get twenty-yes,
ffty-years in the penitentiary."

HARTMAN BEHIND
GREAT PROJECT

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-Plans are being
formulated by E. II. Hartman and
other Eastern fnanciers, according to
the Chronicle for the formation of a
gigantic corporation which is to con-
troll practically the commercial life of
Chicago by means OF a combination of
the subway. transportation, freight,
express, electric light and power and
telephone companies now holding
franchises in the city. The first inti-
nation that such a deal was under way
came today from an authoritative
source. The statement was made that
the proposed merger of the Illinois
Tunnel Company and the Chicago Edi-
son Company was the first in the for
nation of one of the greatest corpora
tfons the world has ever seen.
1t is known that Hartman wants to
gain control of the tunnels in order to
use them as a distributing system for
freight arriving in Chicago over his
many railroads. Such system for the
exchange and distribution of freight
and express would mean a saving of
millions for the roads.

Old King Coal has gone into winter

The coal merchants cross their

In discussing the rise an officer of
The Western Fuel Company said last
evening There has not been a rise
Of coal TO any extent in fifteen or
twenty years before. but IT has come

is bought up TO the very mouths OF
the mines and there are few ships
available to carry what is taken out.
The mines are running full blast, but

COLONEL LEE ANNOUNCED.
VIII Contest for the Legislature from
 HOustOn County.

Dothan. April 17.-(Special. )-Co1. |.
 W. L. Lee of Columbia has formally
 announced his candidacy for the Leg isIature from Houston County, adding
 still another to the large list of cam
 didates who are seeking public oflee
 in Houston County. Colonel Lee will
 be one of the most formidable entries
 thus far announced. His home town
 of Columbia is the largest in the coIp-
 ty except Dothan, and with Columbia
 behind him he will make strong fight
 for Representative.
 The Salvation Army which has been
 here since Friday, doing Its wort of
 singing and preaching on the main
 streets of Dothan. has, like the Arab,
 folded It's tents and silently stole
 away. The detachment was some
 thing of novelty here. nothing like 1t having ever made a visit to Houston County before. The large crowds which heard the sermons several -imes day appeared interested in the proceedings, | and accorded the earnest laborers the I most respectful attention.
 | Some talk has been heard here with- | in the past few days of the probabil- | ity of a street railway for Dothan. So l far as is known no definite steps have | been taken regarding the matter. but I the town is growing rapidly, having all | ready attained the dignity of a small l city, and it can be only a question of | a short time before some enterprising | capitalist will reap a rich harvest by | laying his lines along Dothan's thor | oughfares.
 Dothan, 1t seems, will have no base | ball team this season. The town is | full of lovers of the national game, and | a team would no doubt receive encour- | aging support, but last season proved l rather in the nature of a costly exper- | iment, and its close witnessed a ple- | thora of debts hanging doggedly to | the shoulders of those devoted ones | who had made an honest effort to give | the town an up-to-dat baseball team It will be remembered that the Selma Indians were purchased and profes-
 sional ball was played. It was enter l taining enough, but anything else but | remunerative.
 | All of Dothan is intensely interested Southen League team. Bulletins show
 ing the result of the games are re- | ceived here in the afternoons, and when Montgomery wins a howl of true delight l goes up from the loyal fans. The per 1 sonnel of the Montgomery aggregation l Is almost as familiar to Dothanites as
 1t Is to the people of Montgomery, who see the daily games, and no one here l seems to doubt for a moment that Ike | Durrett will land the Climbers at the | top before the end of the season. When | The Advertiser reaches here at 10:50 | each day the last page is eagerly | scanned for the details of the preced- | ing days game, and no other newspa- | per coming to Dothan has so many l readers Of Its sporting page.

EXCITING TIMES ARE LOOKED FOR

Tuscumbia, April 17.-(Speciap-- The dispensary fight is on in Colbert county, and the dispensary advocates are enthusiastic.
 Hon. A. H. Carmichael. candidate for Representative, is the leader of the movement. He spoke to a large crowd at Leighton Saturday. addressed good sized audience at the court house in Tuscumbia yesterday ana proposes speaking at the various voting pre- cfncts in the county within the next three weeks. He has an appointment in Shefield Friday night, another at Cherokee Saturday. and will speak on the streets in Tuscumbia Saturday af- ternoon. He has invited the opposition to select their best speaker to meet him in joint discussion at his appoint ments, but as yet the gauntlet has not been taken up.
 Everybody, both for the dispensary and those opposed to 1t, Is glad that the issue is to be fought out and set tied for some time to come. The re- suit means that the question will not again he revived for number of years.
 The bill, which Mir Carmichael pro- poses framing, if he is successful in his candidacy, will provide for four dis pensaries in the county-one each at Tuscumbia, Sheffield, Leighton and Cherokee-the four incorporated towns In Colbert.
 The profits arising from each to be distributed, 40 per cent to the towns In which the dispensaries are located, and 60 per cent to the county. A board of commissioners will be appointed to regulate and look after the dispensa- ries, MT. Carmichael's plan being to have three members-0ne to be selected by the county board of commissioners, one by the four mayors or the above towns, and one to be appointed by the Governor-thus having all the in- terests. city. county and state repre- sented. The commission will name the dispensers and have the control and supervision of the dispensaries.
 The advocates of the movement ar que that it will prove a great source of value to the cities and charities, and that within five or SIX years the county's bonded indebtedness of s200,- 900 will be wiped out, while the four towns will enjoy an era of prosperity, such as they have never dreamed of or imagined
