Letter from EIkins.

Attorney Yellott placed in evidence a
letter from Senator Elkins to Burton.
which, in part, is as follows:
IF I had acquired the " estern Mary
land, or if the West Virginia Central
when in my hands, had done so. then you
would have been treated Just as I prom
ised, and stood on the same basis as
did. All Of my talk with you and Mr.
Dubrueil was on the basis OF my buying
the Western Maryland Road and not
others"
Mr.. Yellott asked Mr. Burton what he
thought his services and those OF Nj
Dubrueil in connection with the sale of
the Western Maryland were reasonably
worth, Attorney WOrthington objected
stating the witness could only answer for
himself. Mr. YellOtt changed his ques-
ton so as TO apply to Burton alone
i think my services were reasonably
worth S5oo,o0O. replied the witness.
In response TO questions by Mr.. Worth
ingtOn, Mr.. Burton said he was thirty
four years old; that he had lived in
Washington for twenty years; that he
was admitted TO the bar in Baltimore in
1896; that he had not practiced his pro-
fession outside of Baltimore.
BurtOn's stock Holdings.
In reply to question by Mr.. Worthing-
ton. Burton said he first acquired stock
in the Western Maryland Railroad Com
pany in 1901. 1t might have been in June
OF some month later, or it might have
been in September
AT the time you wrote 20 Senator
Elkins on October Is. 1901. did you have
any stock except what you had pur-
chasedT'
I knew where the stock was. and I
could have purchased it." replied Burton
DO YOU call that under your control?"
asked Mr. Worthington.
Il knew where It was and I could get
it, and I considered that under my con-
troll. said the witness

Mr.. Worthington questioned the wit

said he could have secured the Townsend

to sell 1t for S25 per share; that Jacob

The recent spell of dry weather
has set the pessimests to bowling.
They claim the corn crop is gon-
er for sure. But we have always
noticed that every drouth has been
broken some time or other. And
we do not see how any man can
enjoy being a blamed pessimest.
It does not cost any more to be an
optimist and look on the bright
side of things, and we sometimes
think it costs less. The pessimest
does not sleep well, and as gen.
eral rule he has indigestion, and
a bad disposition. Brace up.

In and every sack Of sugar hauled out
would pay freight to the Santa Fe
road.
The Santa Fe has spent hundreds
and hundreds Of thousands Of dollars
In the southwest In aiding enterprises

fore questioned the right OF the road
TO help build town that would bring
II business when built. The road had
as much right to do that as citizen
has to contribute money to build a
church. or to erect factory. But the
new school OF reformers smelled rat.
They went after the Santa Fe, and got
an indictment against the road for
giving rebates. The jury construed
the donation as rebate" The pos.
sible fines against the road for this
horrible crime will amount TO $780,.
900.
In other words. the Santa Fe must
not hereafter give aid or comfort or
encouragement or cash TO any enter.

does not believe II was good business,
because II does not believe the beet

But that is neither here nor there.

part Of the time In cash to the pro-
dncers, and a part OF the time in a

the government in indicting the rail.

eminent itself has done for years and
Is doing now is so Inconsistent az to

And II this Is to be the policy pur-
sued, and II this Is the theory of the
government In regard to the law pro-
hibiting rebates, where will the Santa
