CORNER FREIGHT TRAFFIC
Vanderbi|ts Secure Control OF
Chicago Belt Lines.

Chicago, June !.-Final steps are
being taken in New York to complete
$70,500,000 railway coup, which the
Vanderbilts have engineered to secure
the lions share of the tremendous
traffic which originates in Chicago
and the surrounding territory, as we'll
as the great tonnage which passes
through and around Chicago. The
elimination of the financial transac
ton of this great traffic deal, which
William H. Newman, president of all
New York Central lines, has been sue
cessfully playing in the interests of
the Vanderbilts, is the leasing, with
right to purchase, of the outer belt
line from the Chicago Junction Rail-
way company.
>Supplement1ng this IS the leasing
for term of ninety-nine years of a
part of the tracks of the Chicago Ter
minal Transfer Railway company,
which forms the connecting link in
the complete inner belt railway sys-
tenn which the Vanderbilts are secur-
ing. s~-
President John A. Spoor Of the Belt
road confirmed the lease and declared
that before the end of the year the
outer belt line, which his company
now owns and operates, would pass
entirely into the possession of the
New York Central lines.

NEW PLAN OF GOVERNMENT
Five Commissioners to Rule City of
Des Moines.

Des Moines.
Des Moines, June 2. For the next
six years Des Moines will be ruled by
a central form of city government
composed of an elective commission
of five. BY a majority Of 2,219 the
city carried the so-called Des Moines
plan, built similar to the Galveston
and Los Angeles systems. The unoffi-
cial returns from every one of the
twenty-nine precincts give 6,O44 in
favor of the proposition and 4,143
against.
It was the most exciting municipal
election ever held in Iowa and tbs
largest vote ever polled in the city
showed the unusual interest aroused.
Scores of women tried to vote, only to
be turned away at the polls. 1t was
virtually a fight between the politi-
clans and the reformers and the re-
formers Won.~~-~~
The new plan provides for COM
mission Of five, who serve term of
two years. Each commissioner is
given a separate department Of the
city government after the board
chooses a mayor from their number.
They have the right Of executive ses-
sion, but the granting of any franchise
must be left to q popular vote. The
parties at the primaries meet on COM
mon ground and choose ten candi-
dates, who are then voted on at the
spring election, five being chosen.
The people at any time have power
to GUST any or all Of the commission
ers by petition signed by rs per cent
of the voters.

The Mystery of Death.

:
Oh, DEATH how bitter is the thought
Of thee! How speedy thy approach!
How stealthy thy steps! How uncer-
tain thy hour! How universal thy
sway! The powerful cannot escape
thee; the wise know not how to avoid
thee; the strong have no strength to
oppose thee; the rich cannot bride
thee with their treasure. Thou art a
hammer that always strikes, a sword
that is never dull, net into which all
fall, a prison into which all must en-,
ter, a sea on which all must venture, a
penalty which all must suffer, q trib,
ute which all must pay. Oh, death,
death! Implacable enemy to the hui
man race! Why didst thou enter into
the world ?-Luis de Granada.
