THE R. R. BLUFF
D|DN0T WORK.

Topeka, Kans.. March g.
Following the statement made by
Judge Smith, for the Santa Fe,
that that road would not endeavor
to break the maximum freight
law on oil, N. H. LOOMS, general
counsel for the Union Pacific. TO-
day said: q
The action of the Santa Fe
means that the roads will not in.
crease the rate. However, | can
not speak for the railways except
in general way. l believe no
action will be taken at the present
time by the roads. They will
wait, and make an appeal to the
next legislature to amend or re-
peal the law, which is in fact con-
6scatory."
Governor Hoch was much pleas
ed to hear that the roads had
given up the fight. He said no
body in Kansas wanted an unfair
law on the statute books, and if
the roads would appear before the
Legislature with facts and figures
satisfactory conclusions could be
reached. A fear of radical action
by the people is considered in
some quarters to be the reason for
the back down of the railroads

.EX-GOV. HOGG
dies SUDDENLY

Houston, Texas, March 3. -Ex-
Governor HogQ, of Texas died to-
day at the residence of his law
partner, Frank C. Jones in this
city. The death was unexpected.
He was enroute to the Sanitarium
at Battle Creek, Mich.
The ex-governor had been dead
several hours when his daughter,
Ina, entered the room late this
afternoon to waken him. His
death is attributed to injuries re-
ceived some years ago while
aboard an Internatioal 6 Great
Western train, for which be sued
for 100000 damages. An
operation failed to restore his
health.
Since his retirement from the
goyernorship Mr.. Hogg amassed
a fortune in the oil business and
the practice of law. Although
out of politics, he welded a most
powerful individual influence in
his state. He was born an orphan,
and worked on the farm until be
was fourteen years old.
His first office was that of road
oVerseer, the justicen of the peace.
He studied law, became a member
of the legislature. He then serv-
ed as attorney of Smith county,
then Attorney General, and
Governor. In spite of the con-
centratiOn of all the opposition,
he was reelected governor in
1892. He drove the Standard Oil
company out of Teaxs, and had
much to do with making the
powerful antitrust laws of Texas.

Caney, Kansas. March 5.-All
efforts to cap the burning gas we'll

thousand dollars to any one who
