ing message "The demands on the
artists emotional and physical pow
ers are so great and the production Is
so vast, that 1t is inexpedient to place
Peter Gynt in his repertory or for him
to play II over an extended period.

Cullom, of Illinois. had an interview
with President Roosevelt Thursday.

Mr.. Roosevelt that If he, Senator
Cullom, could have his way Edward
II. Hartman would be sent to the
penitentiary for manipulauons of
stock and bond issues of the Chicago
4 Alton railroad.
Did the president agree with
you?' Mr.. Cullom was asked.
Il do not think he made any COM
ment upon that remark OF mine, %
was the reply. There is no doubt
about the rascality of the deal. The
people who are swindled are not the
public at large, nor those who travel
on the road, but those who bought
those bonds. If there Is nothing be-
hind the paper il cannot, Of course,
be worth much, and to sell II is moth
ing less than a sWindlc.'
what do you expect the state Of
Illinois to do about it2" was asked.
Il do not know" said the senator.
Il fear there is no law under which
IL can be reached. But | am pleas
ed to see Governor Deneen has had
a bill drawn which in the future, If
il becomes a law, will regulate the
increase in stock and bonds. This
is wise step. 1 fear so deeply be-
cause the Alton road has grown up
under my eyes and runs through my
town. The road was looted and after
that those who had a hand IN IL do
not seem 10 have cared what became

What Is your opinion Of the pro-
poSal to have the actual value of the
railroads ascertained to establish

Il believe it would be a good thing
to have the actual value of the roads
ascertained. But there are many
difficulties in the way of doing that.
Unless the appraisemeut Of all the

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.
They Will Be Raised i'm Fight on
Nebraska Two-Cent Fare.

In the contest begun by the Union Pa
ciffc against the enforcement of the 2
cent maximum passenger rate law in
Nebraska, the question of federal and
state Jurisdiction is likely to be made
a CONSPICUOUS feature of the controversy
in such a way as to- lead to judicial
announcement on the respective rights
of each. John N. Baldwin, general So
licitor for the. Union Pacific, has init
mated his intention of making this point
a conspicuous feature of his attack on
the enforcement of the new state law.
Another important element in the at
tack will be an attempt to overthrow
the greatly exploited idea that the re-
duction of rates will so increase travel
that the roads will be gamers, rather
than losers, by the new law. The ex-
perience in thicklyz settled territory in
the east. as well as in the more sparse
~ populated regions OF the west, will be
cited to emphasize this point. System
affixed efforts now are being made to
collect statistics to make good this
point. and the experience of the Ohio
roads as we'll as of those in Nebraska,
will be cited.
Great stress will be laid on the con-
hscatory character of the new legislation,
and it is confidently expected by the
legal advisers Of the roads that the
courts will not hesitate to interpose their
authority to prevent such confiscation
as is alleged.
