LARGE SUM FOR THE
 MEXICAN ROADS
MORE THAN $so,ooo,ooo WILL BE SPENT FOR CONSTRUCTION AND iMPRovEMENTs-sTATloN FOR MEXICO CITY.

Mexico City. April IA general survey of the cost of railway extensions now under construction, changing the gauge on narrow gauge roads, terminals at the port of Vera Cruz, etc. show approxi- mate expenditures of more than sixty million dollars There will be abundant employment for thousands of men for several years.
 The railways entering this city are to have union station. which. with the new terminals. will probably cost s1O,0oo,OOo. This improvement has been long eontem- plated.
 Shortly after the opening of the Tehuan- tepec railway for through traffic from ocean to ocean the line will be made double track, making it the only double track road in the republic. The new harbors at Coatsacoalcos on the Gulf of Mexico and Salina Crus, on the Pacific, will shorten the time for freight ship ments to New York and San Francisco two or three days, and shorten the time between Europe and the west coast con- siderably.
 It Is believed the double track can be made in eight months from the time of beginning.

MORSE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY
On and after April 1, 1906, the corpor- stion of the Lyman D. Morse Ad- vertisine Agency will be known as the Morse International Agency.

This agency had it's beginning over sixty years ago and constituted special form of business activity in newspaper advertising which had but newly devel- oped through the commercial conditions existing then. 1t was founded by s. M. Pettengill. in 1S49 and met with sue cess from the start MT. J. H. Bates was early admitted to partnership and the name of S. M. Pettengill company be-
 came proverbial as the leading arver-
 Using agency in the United States. After many years of the firms unlimited
 success, MT Bates in 1886 bought ou.
 the entire interest of MT. Pettengill,
 thus becoming sole owner of this large
 business but the firm name continued
 as J. H. Bates until January 1, 1893,
 when MT. Lyman D. Morse, who had
 been active with MT Bates for num-
 Der of years became partner in the con
 cern and caused the firm style to be
 changed to Bates &E Morse.
 After two years of partnership with MT.
 Bates, Mr Morse became the sole owner
 of the business and the name of the
 firm changed to the Lyman D. Morse Ad-
 vertising Agency
 On March 1, 1898, H. Henry Douglas
 became the partner of Mir. Morse and so
 continued until the latter's death on
 March 6, 1901.
 On April l. 1901, the firm was incor-
 porated under the laws of the state of
 New York with the same name-Lyman
 DO. Morse Advertising Agency-and with
 the following officers:
 H. Henry Douglas, president Irving M. Dewey, vice president and treasurer.
 G. Howard Harmon. secretary. The Lyman D. Morse Advertising Agency, therefore. being the oldest es- tablishment of it's kind in America and | having, through it's large clientele and progressiveness developed wide internat- | ional connections. it is believed expedient ] to adapt it in name to it's enlarged sphere I of operation by changing its business I style to the Morse International Agency, | 3S Park Row New York.
 l Owing to increase of business. necessi- | tating larger offices, the corporation will move it's offices on May to the Revillon | building 19 West 34th street, New York. 1 The Gawk makes best advertising

The New Highway Bridge.

With the new Highway bridge across
the Potomac open to traffic, the authori-
ties of the District of Columbia are now
trying to find a method to determine the
number OF passengers carried across the
bridge by the Washington, AIexan-
dria and Mt. Vernon Railway. The act
of Congress authorizing the bridge speci-
fed that the railway should pay the
District cne-half cent for every passen-
ger carried across the river TLare was
no mention made as to the method of
determining the number of passengers or
the collection of the assessment. Mr.
Darnielle, assessor of the District, yes
terday recommended to the Commission
ers that a bill be drawn which will re-
quire the car lines or line using the
bridge to furnish sworn statements as to
The number of passengers carried, and to
make payment of the same to the Dis
trict accordingly, as it would not be
practicable for the District to station q
man at the approach OF the bridge and
count the passengers on each car.
