fond Of pedestrian exercise. True, you
may train him by the use of certain
appliances to follow you through field

because he adores you but because you
have successfully deceived him into
thinking that he cannot help himself

HILL GETS SOUTHERN ROAD
NEW PRESIDENT CHOSEN FOR
- THE MISSOURI, KANSAS
AND TEXAS.

New York, Nov. 2S.-The election of
Adrian H. Joline as president of the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas company
to succeed F. M. Finney, resigned, is
the turning over of the old Rockefel-
Ter property to James j. Hill and the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy rail-
road. Following Mr.. Joline's election
James N. Wallace and j. G. Metcalf
were elected directors: and members
of the executive committee.
Mr.. JOiine is not closely identified
with Mr.. Hill or his properties, but
both he and Mr.. Wallace represent the
Central Trust company interests,
which have been very strongly identi-
fed with Missouri, Kansas and Texas
interests since the Speyers became in
terssted in the road. J. G.. Metcalf
represents the Speyer interests on the
board. 1t is believed that the officers
have been merely elected to conduct
the roads financial affairs until the
new control, whatever it may be, as
serts itself.
The recent activity and strength of
both the common and preferred stocks
of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas in
the market have been accompanied by
a revival of the old rumors that con-
troll of the property is being sought or
has already been acquired in. the in
terests of the Hill railroads.. -. Dc

INTENSE FEELING AROUSED BY

MONSTER MEETING MAKES PROTEST

BY THE UPPER HOUSE OF
PARLIAMENT.

London, Nov. 2S.-The intensity Of
the political feeling aroused by the
house of lords treatment of the edu-
cation bill found expression in an
emergency meeting of the general
committee of the National Liberal fed
Grafton, at which a resolution was
unanimously adopted urging the gov
eminent to take the drastic step of
totally rejecting the lords amend
ments to the bill and to "resolutely
determine that the present parliament
shall not come to all end until steps
are taken to bring to final arbitra-
ment the question whether the house
of peers should any longer possess
the right of veto on the will Of the
people as declared by the house Of
commons"
The meeting was the largest and
most representative of it's kind which
had assembled during the last twenty
years.
The speakers warmly denounced
the action of the peers, declaring that
the house of commons should not
waste another day in considering the
amendments to the bill, which should
be returned to the house of lords with
out debate, and that the Liberal gov
eminent ought to apply the only rem
edy, which must be drastic and final.

Penalty for Accepting Rebates From
New York Central
New York, Nov. 2S.-A fine Of $751;
600 has been imposed upon the Amer
lean Sugar Refining company by Judge
Holt in the United States circuit
court for accepting rebates from the
New York Central Railroad company.
The company was allowed sixty
days to prepare to appeal the case.
The rebates amounted to $4,000.
Prior to imposition of the sentence
T. K. McIlvaine, the defendants coun-,
sci, made. a lengthy argument in sup.
port of his motion for an arrest of
judgment. He contended that the
contract made with the New York
Central by Lowell M. Palmer, through
which the rebates were granted, could
not be held to be binding criminally
upon the defendant. Judge Holt, in
the course of the discussion, observed
that in his opinion Mr.. Palmer could,
under the interstate commerce act, as
superseded by the Elkins act, have
been indicted, tried and convicted for
soliciting the rebates. Under the for
mer enactment he would, upon convic-
ton, have been imprisoned, said Judge
Holt, while Under the Elkins act a fine
only could be imposed. ~--

LAND FRAUDS IN WYOMING
FEDERAL GRAND JURY MAY IN
DICT SEVERAL PROMINENT
~. PUBLIC OFFICIALS.

Salt Lake City, Nov. 2S.-The fed
eral grand jury, which has been sitting
here for the last two weeks, has voted
to return five true bills against cor
porations and against some of the per-
sons who have been implicated in the
wholesale stealing of the public lands
in the state of Wyoming. The work
of the grand jury has not been COM
pleted and it is stated that before the
investigation ends it is likely that it
may reach out and lay the hand of the
law upon a United States senator, a
Judge of the supreme court of the
state and an official high in the en-
ploy of the government.
The indictments, which have been
voted, will not be returned into court
until after the close of the investiga-
ton which the interstate commerce
commission is going to make in this
city, in Pueblo and in Denver. The
commission will investigate land
frauds committed in Utah by which
more than 10000 acres of land valued
at over 100000 were stolen from
the government, it is alleged, by the
Denver and Rio Grande railroad, the
Pleasant Valley Coal company and the
Utah Fuel company, which are cor
porations owned by the Rio Grande
