 The state also succeeded fin ketting into the case railroad tickets showing that Dr. Rowland and Mrs. Strange, a day before they were married, ;raveled by night in Pullman, while the hotel register showed that they registered in the Monticello hotel in Norfolk as Dr. and Mrs. D. s. Rowland. The state insisted that Strange's health was good while the defense brought out every feature of heart disease.

 Released.

Burlington. Iowa, oct. alt is now believed that the story told by Mrs. John Hathaway that tramp tied her son to fence post and burned him to death because she had refused to give the tramp food. is untrue.
 The Hathaways live near Oquawka, Ills, and the woman's story produced intense excitement in that neighbor- hood.

Means has entered suits against the Southern Telephone and Telegraph Company and the South western Telegraph and Telephone Com pany asking that penalties agsregat- ing $3,000. 900 be assessed.
 The complaint states that prior to May l, 1905. the Southwestern corpo- ration was the only one in the local field and that shortly afterwards the Southern was organized for the avowed purpose of competition. and that it es- tablished a plant here.
 The State alleges that by means of this pretended competition, the new company acquired several thousand new contracts and shortly afterward sold out to the Southwestern.

 When the President stepped ashore here this morning he manifested every evidence of having spent comfort able night on the steamboat Missis- sfppi. and his spoken words confirmed the impression.

He was the guest at dinner on the steamer Alton of the Business Mems League of St. Louis and with that entertainment and the speech making and conversation that followed the dinner his time until almost l2 o'clock was fully taken up. The din- ner was regarded by all as one of rare occurrence, and when the President had said farewell, not a few were heard to remark that 1t would become history.
 The important feature was the fact that the scheme of ship channel from the Gulf to the Lakes received an im- petus which all believe will do much towards insuring the earnest pressing of that enterprise.
 The occasion was also notable in that in addition to the President. 1t was attended by no less than fifteen Governors and members of the Water ways Commission and several repre- sentatfves of the business world of St. Louis. The Governors attending were: Conner of Alabama, Broward of Flor ida, Dinen of Illinois.
