mand for - 900 on Pain Of Death.
ST. LOUIS. May 2e.-Ex-Gov. David R.
Francis is still getting letters from the
mysterious correspondent who demanded
t6 900 or his life.y Notw outstanding the
vigilance Of Chief Of Detectives Desmond
and his men and of the postal authorities,
two other communications have reached
the Worlds Fair president. These warned
him he cannot escape his nemesis, and that
only IS 900 will save his hide.
Mr.. Francis thinks he has a clue and
he is nursing it a~sdduously. 10 is suspected
that the letter writer is a former customer
OF the Francis brokerage firm who lost
money In speoulations. The missives are
all in the same handwriting and their ex-
treme length is another popularity. The
first one was eight pages long and the fol-
lowing ones are equally prolific. It is
said that comparisons have been made
and that experts are reasonably certain
that the man in question is the mysterious
letter writer.
The letters declare that another rem
devious will be arranged; to which Mr..
Francis must 90 alone at night. Two
whistles will let him know the author of
the letters is in the neighborhood and three
whistles will give him the signal to drop
the IS 900 where he Ia and to hurry from
the spot,
Gov. Francis is said to laugh at the whole
matter, caring nothing about 1t, except
for the worry it gives his wife.

STATE p. n. r.. INQUIRY.
Demand Growing for an Investigation b
the P~ennaylXania LeRLslature.


the Pennsylvania Legislature.
PHILADELPHIA. May 30. 1t was asserted
here to-day that President Cassatt of the
Pennsylvania Railroad is coming home in
response to urgent calls from his frightened
subordinatss.
In the absence Of President Cassatt the
officials st Broad Street Station, 30 far as
the scandals revealed before the Interstate
Commerce Commission are concerned. were
all at sea to-day, and every one seemed
afraid to talk lest he should increase the dis
order.
II Is to the commission appointed by the
board Of directors Of the railroad to make
an investigation that all Pennsylvania en-
ployees look for a defence to the evidence
brought forth by the commission. That
he railroad committee will take any dras-
tic action 10 not thought probable, its pur-
pose being, according to relia BILE report,
to ascertain the real facts 20 that a plausible
sf not a convincing defence may be built up.
To add to the list Of problems which Ia
awaiting the return of Mr.. Cassatt to be
solved Is the increasing public demand
for q thorough investigation by the State
Legislature Of the whole system Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, such investigation
to 60 into every department.
The move for q State investigation has
been started by a number Of minority stock
holders who believe that there should be a
general ~overhauling Of the railroad 90
that stockholders would know just how
their interests are taken care Of.
The Legislature Is ready and anxious to
begin and January will likely see this In
qulry begun.
