BY LEAVING HIS FORTUNE
ROCKEFELLER COULD NOT
ATONE FOR HIS WRONGS.
So Says Attorney General Hadley of
Missouri-Has Set an Example
To Other Financiers.

Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 12-Her-
bert S. Hadley, attorney general of
Missouri, in an interview here is
quoted as saying that if John D..
Rockefeller, at his death, should
leave his entire possessions to the
nation it would not atone for the
wrong, which he alleges, the Stand
ard Oil country has done to the
country.
"Suppose that John D. Rockefeller
on his death left all his Standard Oil
possessions as a gift to the nation to
be held in trust permanently for all
the people, what then would the peo-
pie think Of him?'' was asked Mr..
Hadley.'
eff Rockefeller did that replied
the attorney general, " he could sot
atone for the almost incalculable
moral wrong he has done the coun-
try. 1t would not atone for the dis
tinctly dishonorable and commercial
ly immoral trend the success of Stan
dard Oil methods has given the trad
ing and financial organizations of
America. In my own recent inves-
legations I have had the most posi-
tive and actual proof of the demoral-
izing influence of Standard Oil in
Missouri.
"Railroad preferences still exist.
It costs cents more to freight oil
from st. Louis to Kansas City than it
does from Kansas City to st. Louis.
But Standard Oil has a refinery at
Kansas City. Standard Oil is ship
ped in iron barrels and independent
in wooden barrels. Iron barrels are
heavier, but the rate wooden bar
rels is one class higher.
"Railroad officials have been
bribed here. The spy system is COM
mon. Every trick and turn that can
be adopted to evade the law is used
without scruples.'

MAKING FIGHT FOR
WESTERN TRAVEL
MANY AGENTS VISIT RICH
MoND TO SOLICIT PASSEN-
GERS FOR THE WEST.
G )MPETITI0N VERY STRONG
Owing to Mild Weather in This Sec
tion of the Country People Will
ling to Stay Home.

The great railways out of Chicago
AID st. Louis for the West, are max
ing strong bid for passenger traf-
tc this winter, and in every state
each of these roads maintain branch
passenger offices, with travelling
agents, who visit personally many of
those who have written to the Office
for information
On account of the fine weather
which has characterized this winter,
TIE travel to California and other
western states has been smaller than
usual this year, and the passenger
agents are granting concessions to
prospective passengers to induce
them to 60 west. Climate is des-
ciibed as resembling that of the
"Garden of Eden'' and with the
personally conducted' part of the
trip specialized, many are induced to
go.
1t is a fact, however, that the west
ern roads are giving better service
this year to tourists than ever before
and better trains, better time and
better rates are to be had from any
of the seven or eight roads to Cali
fornia.
Richmond is visited nearly every
day by one or more travelling passen-
ger agents.

MERGER BLOCKED
FOR Time BEING
so SAYS AN OFFICIAL OF DAY
TON AND WESTERN TRAC-
TION LINE.
TWO LINES ARE HOLDING BACK
Dayton and Western and The Ohio
Western Want More Money
Than is offered.
TWO LINES ARE HOLDING BACK

An official of the Dayton & West
ern who was in this city yesterday
stated that the plan of limited car
service, between Indianapolis and
Detroit, had almost been given up
and that the merger of the lines con-
Meeting the two cities, had been
blocked for the time being by the
stand taken by the Dayton & West
ern and the Ohio Western, which
runs from Dayton to Lima.
These two lines are the missing
links in the great Morgan, Murdock,
Scheff system, which it is said now
controls all traction lines from De-
troit to Lima, from Richmond to In
dianapolis and from Indianapolis to
Lafayette.
There is no doubt that the two
lines which are holding out will join
the system, if they get their price
but it is said that up to the present
time the consideration offered has
not been sufficient.
On February Is, the traction line
between Columbus, O., and Dayton,
will be sold and the Murdock crowd
will be strong bidders for the prop
erty. If an arrangement can be eff
fected with the Ohio Western a lin
tied car service between Cincinnati
and Detroit will soon be put on,
probably next week.

RAILROAD NOTES

The Portland and Muncie Traction
Company will soon be operating it's
ears between these two cities, and in
a short time the line will be contin-
ned across the Ohio line and over to
Celina, Ohio, to meet the line of the
Western Ohio Electric Ry. This will
mean one more interstate electric
road, of which there are now several,
and those which were built first will
have hard time holding on to their
present business.
The acquisition by the Standard
Oil of the c. III. & D., is causing a
great deal of comment in the finan-
cial world, and it is considered a
great stroke of enterprise on the
part of Rockefeller to have purchased
the road which runs through his oil
fields.
c. F. Pierce, formerly a rate clerk
for the Queen and Crescent RI, has
accepted the position of Chief Clerk
to w. B. Galloway, general agent of

AWFUL PSORIASIS ss YEARS.
Terrible Scaly Hurnor in Patches All
Over the Body-Skin Cracked and

Soap, six boxes of Ointment, and two
bottles of Resolyent. In thirty days l was
completely cured, and | think permanent

psoriasis first made it's appearance in red
spots, generally forming circle, leaving in
the center spot about the size of a sill
yer dollar of sound flesh. In short
time the affected circle would form
heavy dry scale of,a white silvery appear
ance and would gradually drop off. 70

using oil to soften them the flesh would
be perfectly raw, and light discharge of
bloody substance would ooze out. That
scaly crust would form again in twenty
four hours. 1t was worse on my arms
and limbs, although it was in spots all
over my body, also on my scalp. If |
let the scales remain too long without
removing by bath or otherwise, the skin
would crack and bleed. / suffered intense
itching, worse at nights after getting

BETTER THAN A CASCADE.
Something More Picturesque Than
Mess Of Water Running
Over Rocks.

Several years ago William L. Douglas
spent a short vacation with some friends
in New Hampshire, relates the Boston
Herald The first morning there found
him taking his usual long walk. He had
heard his friend talking of Wilson's cas-
cade, just four miles from there, so he
decided to walk in that direction. He
had gone about two miles, when he saw
an old man summing himself in the door
way of great barn which stood near the
road
Can you direct me 20 Wilson's cas-
cade?" he inquired of the old man.
The old man squinted his eyes and took
an exhaustive survey of the questioner
before he spoke. Take your first right
and follow it till you come to. a fork
where there's a clump o blackberry
bushes he said, slowly, ''then strike off
to the left Go on till you come to the
net cross road. and then bear off to your
left again. When you've gone a piece
on that road you'll come to Abe Sim
mons house. You'll know him, because
he wears plaid overalls green and blue
plaid, and she makes 'em for him. You
can't keep from laughing when you set
eyes on 'em, I'll wager"
Excuse me, but l have only so much
time said Douglas; will Mr.. Simmons
direct me to the cascade"'
Il presume to say he can, he answered,
"but after you've seen those plaid over
alls little mess O. water running over
little mess O rocks will seem tame
to ye."

IN MONTANA BLIZZARD.
Stage Coaching Experience
in the Winter.

Ike Boyer, of Helena, left the other
morning for Madison county points, and
while waiting in Butte the night before
told some interesting tales of his ex-
perience while making the territory in
southern Montana which is not yet COW
cred by the railroad, says the Anaconda
Standard. a
THE time of my life" he said, twas
experienced between Bannack and Ar
genta. | was making the trip by stage
and my driver was one of the old time
stage drivers of the overland road. The
only name l ever knew for him was
Shorty and he was one of the best that
ever pulled the ribbons over a team Of
horses in Montana.
Shortly after We left Argenta it be-
gan showing, but we paid little atten-
ton to the storm, being wrapped up COM
fortably. When we topped the hill and
started across the foothills to connect
with the old Bannack road we ran into
the teeth of the blizzard. The ther-
mometer began dropping rapidly and al
most before We knew it we found our
eslves chilling fast. To add to our
trouble the air became so filled with
snow that we could not see the length
of our sled ahead Of US. The storm
came so fast and fierce that the horses
refused to face it, and before we realized
it we were off the road and the horses
were helplessly fioundering through the
snow, which seemed almost bottomless
By this time darkness had come and we
were off the trail.
ITO make the matter worse the horses
in fioundering broke the tongue from the
sled and we were holed up for good.
Then we saw that we were in for 1t for
the night and prepared to make the best
of bad bargain. There was a little
straw in the bottom of the sled, and we
tied the horses up so that they could
eat this. The driver and myself walked
back and forth, about rod apart, all
night long and in this manner managed
to keep warm. We drank up all the sam
Piles I had with me, smoked several
boxes of sample cigars, and it seemed
as if the night would never come to an
end.
Occasionally would get uncommon
~ tired and sleepy and would attempt
to doze off, but Shorty would stand for
nothing of the sort, He would rouse me
by drastic means, if necessary, and make
me continue my walk to and fro opposite
him. Finally, after the lapse of at least
century, the night came to an end and
daylight began showing around the
gulch. With the approach of day the
storm went down and the air cleared.
Shorty Immediately began rustling and
before long found pole that could be
used as sled tongue, and We toggled up
matters and continued our trip to Ban
mack. We arrived there In time for q
late breakfast and were not surprised TO
learn that the thermometer had regis
tered Is below throughout the night"

my weight had increased, had a

particular. My work was simply sport
TO what it was formerly.
'''My sisters health was badly run
down and she had become so nervous
that she could not attend to her mu-
sic. She went on Grape-Nuts and had
the same remarkable experience that
l had. Then my brother, Frank, who
is in the post Office department at
Washington city, and had been trying
to do brain work on greasy foods,
cakes and all that, joined the Grape
