SANTA fE RAILWAY ON TRIAL
Documentary Evidence Being Intro
duced to Uphold Contentious
of Prosecution.

Los Angeles. Cal, Oct. I-Evidence for
the most part of technical and document
airy character was introduced by the gov
eminent today when the trial OF the Santa
F'e railroad, on charge of violating the
Elkins law, was resumed before jury in
the United States district court. The
prosecution introduced many freight docu-
ments in the effort to prove that the
Grand Canyon Lime & Cement company
of Arizona received sixty-six "correc-
tons" of weight and charges and depend
ed upon the preponderance of such cor
rection" cards to show that the company
was the recipient of as many rebates.
Attorneys for the Santa Fe are standing
upon the regular form of these cards
and claim they were sent to agents in
southern California, where the lime ship
mentS were received, merely as ''fnqui-
ries' as to the weight of each car
Thomas w. Pate, local freight agent,
AXel Larson, head freight clerk in the
Santa Fe auditors office and F. S. Greg
son, chief clerk to the Santa Fe freight
agent, were examined by the prosecution
today.
All refused to specify that the tariff of
1000 pounds minimum and $40 a carload
was the one in actual force at the time
recited, but when asked if the 'interpre-
tation' made by the government upon the
freight bills introduced and the 'correc-
ton" deductions We're correct, each wit
ness admitted as much.

BULB FARMS OF MARsHLANp.

The vast industry hitherto associated
almost exclusively with Holland is gain
ing a foothold In Great Britain that is
promising for the agricultural depression
there. 1t is said that the climate of Hol-
land is just like the climate of England,
only worse.
In the fen district of Lincolnshire there
are many acres of land devoted to the
growing of narcissi, and so successful has
the industry become that several Dutch
growers have paid England the compli-
ment of buying their stock bulbs IN that
country, while others are said to have
considered seriously the ACCESSIBILITY of
purchasing land in Lincolnshire for the
growing of bulbs so as to compete with
the EngIishman in his own land.
An acre of wheat or potatoes in Eng
land is worth from $50 to 500, but an acre
of choice daffodils or narcissi may be
worth anything from $3.50 to 5000 and
more.
