wHAIEN HELD TO ANSWER
Will Be Tried on Four Charges
of Selling Mining Sock Said
to Be Worthless.

The case OF The People VS.. William
Whalen was concluded in the Justice
Court at Sacramento. Cal, on March 90
aud Whalen was held to answer to the
Superior Court on the COMPLAINTS of
Mrs. U. Martin, Mrs. E. Martin. ID. r.
Soares aud Mrs. Runkle, bail being
fixed at $4,000. $1,000. $1,000. $1,000, re-
spectively. The complaint Of Antoine
Mendes was dismissed as there was not
sufficient evidence to warrant holding
Whalen, and no testimony was taken
on the complaint of A. f. Silva, because
of the latter's illness. Whalen was
under examination on six counts charg-
ing him with securing money under
false pretenses. the prosecution claim
ing that he has sold a number Of shares
of the stock of the United States Min
ing and Milling Company by misrepre-
senting the value of the ore being taken
from mines, located near Alpha, Eu-
rcka. Nevada. He was arrested here last
month and extradited to California.
No DiOidends Came as Expected.
According to the reports of the trial
in the Sacramento Union a number of
witnesses testified, nearly all of them
stating that they invested money in the
enterprise after listening to Whalen's
glowing accounts of the richness of the
property. Others sent experts to the
mine, and after receiving their reports
sank sums ranging from $500 to $1,000.

The Ladies Home
Journal Patterns

Superior to all others as the electric
light outshines the candle. The world
progresses-the tallow dip made way for
the electric light; the stage-coach gave
place to the swift-moving engine; and
now the imperfect and Anticipated meth
cd of making patterns is just as far be-
hind as the candle, the stage-coach and
the spinning wheel-an altogether differ
ent pattern, founded on absolutely radi-
cal lines, just as all other great inven-
tons differ radically from their obsolete
| and old fogp predecessors.
The Ladies' Home Journal Patterns
not only surpass all others in style and
fit, but recommend themselves for their
economy and simplicity-a child who
can turn on an electric light will under
stand the Ladies Home Journal Pat
terns-they are that easy and simple.
We are agents for these Patterns be-
cause they are THE VERY BEST and
their great advantage is emphasized by
the fact that, instead of costing more

stretch of the Everglades called Big
Prairie, by dredges which throw up an
embankment. This, in the opinion Of
the engineers, is the most noteworthy
work ever attempted. Only a short
span will be necessary from the MAIN

But shallow water in the vicinity has
caused much annoyance to the feet OF
construction boats, so that big

Soon after reaching Largo the sur
veyors found a large lake to be
crossed, which had never been men

was christened Lake Surprise.

being built. The only foundation the

Leavenworth, Kan. April 24-The
Times says:
William Dunlap. a member of D.
barracks of the Soldiers Home has left
here for Tomopah, Nevada, to claim
his share of a s25O.000 estate left by his
brother, E. Y. Dunlap. who died four
years ago at Tonopah.
Dunlap had not heard from his
brother for 33 years and had no idea
of his whereabo until a few days
ago. when a lawyer from Topeka came
to the Home and tried to get Dunlap
to assign a half of his share to him
as fee for handling the case Dun
lap, however, decided to handle his
own case, and made preparations to
go to Nevada at once.
Before leaving Dunlap received a let
ter from a friend at Jefferson Citv
Mo. who gave him some Of the details
OF his good fortune. z. Y Dunlap. the
deceased, after leaving his home in
Illinois 30 years ago, went west and
mined and prospected through the vari-
however until about six years ago
when the famous AIizpah ledge was
discovered in Nye county, Nevada. He
was one Of the first on the scene of

valuable claims which now form the

brothers whom he had not seen or writ

American Shippers association be pro-
ceeded with regardless of the uniform
bill of lading controversy.
During the last few years freight
rates have been advancing steadily,
either by direct increase or by change
of classification, or. by withdrawal of
rebates. The withdrawal of the rebate
system has added millions of dollars
to the treasures of the carriers, and
now that-aif shippers are practically
on the same basis, so far as the pub
lished schedules are concerned, the
question has been raised as to the adj
visibility of starting an agitation for
general reduction in freight rates
Every move on the part of the car
riers since the community of interest
plan has been adopted has been to cur
tail the privileges of the shippers. and
Il more grasping' disposition has been
manifested. It is important, therefore,
that our plans be outlined and our
work commenced"

Progress on 1t Has Been Rapid and
VIII Be Finished in Two Years.
In an article in the Railroad Ca
zette Harry c. Smith gives the follow
ing information:
Unexpected progress has been made
to date on the Key West extension of
the Florida Coast railroad, despite nu-
merous difficulties. and indications
point to the completion of the ire
mendous task much earlier than the
most sanguine engineers predicted at
the outset. A large share of the land
work across the key has been finished
although 1t is less than year since
construction was actually begun, and
hardly ten months have elapsed from
the date that a large force began
work. The construction gang is about
to transfer itself to the water stretches
which for the most part do not inter-
pose any decided obstacles. OF course
there still remains a good deal of land
work to be done in spots, but it is de-
sirable, if not absolutely necessary,
to avoid the thickets on the keys dur
ing the warmer months, when the mos
quitoes constitute a serious menace.
For rather more than half of the
165 miles between Miami and Key
West the railroad will be over water,
but only at two or three points is
there much depth. In fact, it is as
Henry NJ. Flagler says, as much like
landscape gardening as it is railroad
building. Building the reinforced
concrete arches is not as great a prob
lem as is their protection from the
tropical storms at the few points not
guarded by reefs, before and after
completion. This difficulty caused
contractors to be somewhat slow In
bidding, and it is not unlikely there

It was originally intended to keep to

of the distance ruled out that plan.

Carthage, Mo, April 24.=In COM
pany with Chief Engineer Stephens of
New Orleans the capitalists interested
in building the proposed interstate
electric railroad between Missouri and
Kansas cities completed an overland
trip over the proposed route and ar
rived in Carthage yesterday. All ex-
pressed themselves we'll satisfied with
the route outlined. and it is stated that
all arrangements have been made to
secure money necessary to build and
equip the road. Col. r. c.. Rawlins
and F. c. Dixon of Chanute, Kan,
were in charge of the railroad party
which included representatives of st.
Louis and New York capitalists. The
new road will be about 175 miles long.
Tt will start from Carthage and pass
through Carterville, Oronogo, Webb
City, Joplin, in Missouri, and Galena,
Scammon. McCune, Parsons, Chanute,
Cherryvale and Independence, in Kan
sas.
Besides connecting many important
Missouri and Kansas towns the new
road Will pass through the heart of the

sas, and the coal fields and gas belt of
Kansas. It is the intention to begin
work within thirty days.

OUR LINES ovERNIANAGED.
This Is opinion of south African Rail-
way Man.

W. w. Hoy, chief traffic manager of
the Central South African railways. who
was a delegate TO the international rail-
way congress in Washington, D. c., and
took part in the inspection trip over the
railroads of this country, has submitted
an official report in which he says, among
other things. There IS much to admire
and little to condemn in American rail-
ways. The locomotive construction and
performance is unequaled. The mainte-
nance of way Is not equal to certain other
countries. but equal to the speed attained.
The roads have received the attention
they require, according TO traffic and
earnings derived, and continue TO be inn
proved in keeping with the future de-
mand for Improvement
In operation and traffic can not alto
gether review the work with as much IA
Vor. The lines are Overmanaged, depart
ments are unnecessarily burdened with
very expensive systems, and there are
pressing elements OF objection which il
viii be most difficult to eradicate. In
America the working should not and can
not, be contrasted with the working in
Great Britain. which in these respects is
infinitely superior There are too many
agencies associated with the American
railway systems. Each means additional
expense in general way It is true they
centraHze the work and minimize the du-
ties of the railway companies. but neither
the sender nor the consignee receive any
benefit from these agencies The .Ameri-
can invariably gets there by his perse-
