 than are the American. The facts are quite the contrary. however. The lat est statistics show that the difference in conditions here and abroad is very slight, the number of passengers kill ed to the billion carried one noile being 15.35 in the United States, while In Eu-' rope, including the United Kingdom, 1t is 12.16. These figures are the more significant when it Is considered that the average time schedule If European roads is much slower than ours; that foreigners are more amenable to the rules ani regulations made by the roads for the safety of passengers and employees; that foreigners also are con stitutioL ally less nervous, less insistent on speed and less impatient of delay than the citizens of this country.
 A comparison of the latest statistics of fatalities among passengers on Eng fish and American railways shows that we have a clear advantage in the mat ter of safety Tn Great Britain the pro- portion of passengers killed to those carried one mile is one in 61.9e3,o00. while In this country it is one in 65.- 16S,143.

There are, however. quite a number of camps which have not sent in their ner capita tax, and, with the new rules they may find it embarrassing.

Church Authorities at Rome Want the
Body of Pope Leo XIII Removed
From Tomb

Rome-The arrangements for the re-
moval Of the body of Pope Leo XIII
from ST. Peters to the lateran have
been upset owing to the fact that the
sculptor, Fadolini, will be unable to
complete the monument before next
March.
Cardinal Rampola, who is arch
priest of the cathedral of ST. Peter,
urged the necessity of having the
tomb there empty lest the present
pope should die.
He wishes to hasten the removal of
Pope Leo's remains so as to have
them paced in the provisional tomb in
the lateran within the present year.
Cardinal Satolli opposes the plan on
the ground that the space is not avail
able and that the changing of the
burial place would SAVIOR of lack of
respect.
Owing to delicacy in submitting the
matter to Pope Plus, lest he should
believe that he is not destined to live
long, the removal probably will be
postponed until next spring.

UP. ruins GRAIN DEALERS
Chicagoan Says. He was Bankrupted
in Grain Business in Nebraska
by Union Pacific Railroad

Chicago-James B. Hogarth, secre-
tary of the Chicago City Railway COM
pany admits that he is the man Pres
ident A. B. Stickney of the Chicago
Great Western railroad referred to as
"the man who had been driven out OF
business and made an anarchist, by
the Union Pacifics contract with the
Peavey Grain company, for elevation
allowances at the Missouri river"
Mr.. Hogarth, who is exceedingly bit
ter toward the Union Pacific railroad,
says the rebates paid to the Peavey
people drove him out of business. He
further alleges that when he tried to
force a settlement from the railroad
he was driven out of Nebraska and
even now he fears he is not beyond
the reach of the railroads vengeance.
,Hogarth says he went into the grain
business at CoZad, Neb., fourteen
years ago, and became financially con-
nected with E. NJ F. Lefang of Lex
ington. He was forced out of business
by the Peavey Grain company, which,
he asserts, received concession from
the Union Pacific.
He declares that practically all the
small grain merchants west of Omaha
have been driven out of business by
the Peavey company, because they
found il impossible to compete with
the latter, as it could outbid competi
ton.
Hogarth produces legal documents
to show that he entered suit against
the railroad company fourteen years
ago. He also complained to the inter
state commerce commission, but the
cases were allowed to slumber.
Mr.. Hogarth declares he believes J

in the Peavey company, thus account
ing for the alleged favoritism.
Lefang returned last night to his
home at Lexington, Neb. He declared
that he was after the Peavey concern
and the Union Pacific and that he will
not rest until he ''gets" them for their
alleged conspiracy.

COW TROUBLES
chief of Police Stewart Is Having
 Them-AlI Kinds of Them.

Chief of Police Stewart is having all kinds of COW trouble. It will be remembered that this is the same gentleman whose eagerness in the discharge of his official duties got his own COW in the city pound some few months ago Now MT. stewart is in more trouble.
 IL should be borne in mind that MT. Stewart does not have persona suneryisou over the stray animals of the city. but this duty is delegated to two official "cow catchers, one working during the day and the other during the night These two gentle men catch every COW and every other kind of an animal that goes into the city pound,
 But it would be difficult to make some of the chiefs lady acquaint- ancas believe this They insist that he is the guilty man who goes out ,ffar their milch COWS, and they even insinuate that he is so anxious to swell the city corers with the WI, aows' mite that he goes even to the extreme of personally lying in wass for an opportunity of selzing their animals clandestinely
 During the past week the COW lh- dustry has been particularly good TOT the city impounders, and with each additional incarceration of an anl- nal Chief Stewards troubles increas- cd until it is with difficulty that he can be persuaded to occupy his or flee at the police station. It is said that every time the telephone bell rings nowadays Chief Stewart has a sinking spell" something similar to the dying gulps of young caf drowning. The family physician mas nronounced it cowdrophobia, and 1t is feared that his condition will de- yelop into cow-ardice unless the cow man lets up on his merciless invasion of widows cow-lots.

which has prevailed throughout the state for several weeks, cotton plant ing has practically been completed ia Arkansas. It is the opinion of cotton men in this city that the crop this year is at least tive Weeks earlier than it was last year. The crop ,ast year was about two weeks late on ac- count. of extremely wet weather which prevented planting. It is be. lieyed that the crop this'syea is as early as it hat been for several years and the,~eatHersbu records bear out fhis belief The1 cror statistics f tne bureau for the five years pre- vious 10 last year show that during the last week in April planting has been very generally completed and that some cotton was up. Reports from throughout the state indicate that considerable cotton is already LID at this time. This is true in the country in the vicinity of Little Rock and this section is generally behind the southern part of the state. Plant ing has been practically completed in this vicinity.
 The weather for the past month has been favorable to early planting. as there has been comparatively little rain to interfere with the work of the farmers. Until yesterday there had been no rain of any consequence ir this vicinity for several weeks. It is declared that planting could have been entirely completed by tais time if the farmers had desired to do so, but that in some sections of the state the farmers prefer to wait until May before planting.
