Big Ship to Be Country Club"

Emil Boas, general agent of the
Hamburg American line and one OF
its newly appointed directors, arrived
at New York, Saturday on the Kai-
erin Auguste Victoria with the first
authentic description of the biggest
ship in the world, the Europa, the
plans OF which are now being con-
sidered by the Hamburg-America
Company's officials. 1t will be a trifle
mare than 500 feet in length, or about
fifteen feet longer than the Lusitan
ia, Mr.. Boas says. but it is not intend
ed to excel that ship in speed, perfect
comfort for the passengers being the
essential.
The Europa will be built at the
yards of Harlan & Walt, in Belfast
and will be equipped with both recip-
rocating and turbine engines. 1t will
be a nineteen-knot vessel and will be
launched in the spring of 1910 Its
tonnage is estimated at $4,000. 1t
will be equipped with gymnasium
Turkish baths, tennis courts and
every modern improvement that can
be put in an ocean liner.
Mr.. Boas said the best engineers
of Europe believe the dua. equipment
of both reciprocating and turbine en-
gines will solve the vibration prob
lem.

Cars Whip Hand Still Over Hague.

The effort TO make future interna-
tional conferences automatic and in
dependent of the will of any sover-
eign has failed. and it is n5w certain
Emperor Nicholas OF Russia will con-
woke :he next conference as usual
In The original propositions, draft
cd by Great Britain and then by the
United States, there were two un-
concealed ntentions-ilamely: TO Sc
cure automatic periodic meetings of
the conference every five or every
seven years and the withdrawal of the
of the power to call future confer
ences from Russia not on account
of any feeling against the Russian
emperor but on the principle that
the conference should be automatic
and independent
The delegations interested in the
question were first induced to re-
nounce their own propositions, as
they might have appeared disagree
able TO Russia, allowing Nelidoff, the
president of the conference, who is
Russian himself. to present the reso-
luton voted Sept 81, which assumed
the character of generous renunci-
alton on Russia's part of interference
in the convocation of future confer
ence. so that the desired periodicity
disappeared

tion, DIR. Beldimans, the Roumanian
delegate, deliverd speech in which.
after dwelling on the initiative of
Emperor Nichalos and the hospital
ity of Queen Wilhelmina, he said that
IN view of such omission it was un-
derstood that Emperor Nicholas
should convoke the next conference
DIR. Beldimans' speech was sur
prise TO all present except NJ. Neid-
idoff The delegations of the coun-
tries which desired to terminate Rus
sia's right to convoke the conference
kept silent, either because none of
their members was a sufficient master
OF the French language to answer ap-
propriately in a speech in that tongue
or in the fear that their objection
might be taken as disrespectful to
Russia.

The fight, as are all such, was re-

After the last fight, Adam Wise,

Immunity Bath Opens Way for Rail-
road Deal.

1t is believed in Chicago, that the
granting of immunity to the Chicago
.& Alton railroad for paying rebates
to the Standard Oil company, by
Judge Lands Tuesday, removes the
only obstacle in the wav of ratitica-
tion of the sale by the Rock Island
railroad OF controlling interest in
the Alton to the Toledo, ST. Louis
& Western, or Clover Leaf railroad,
and the consolidation ultimately of
the Alton. Clover Leaf, Minneapolis
& St. Louis and Iowa Central rail-
roads.
As soon as the necessary financial
details are adjusted reorganization
of the four roads will be effected, but
the independent organization of each
may be maintained for some time
and the combination deferred until it
is certain that no legal complications
will result.
The rumor was current in local
railroad circles Tuesday that Presi-
dent Shonts, of the Clover Leaf, has
obtained the consent of Edwin Haw-
ley to make George H. Ross presi-
dent of the Alton railroad in place of
Samuel M. FELTON,. Since March l.,
1908, Mr.. Ross has been second vice
president and traffic manager of the
Clover Leaf. He entered the railway
service in 1879 as a clerk in the
freight department of the Burlington
railroad. under Paul Morton.
When Shonts and Morton obtained
control of the Indiana. Illinois &
Iowa railroad, they made Mr.. Ross
traffic manager. After that road was
sold to the Vanderbilts, netting a
fortune to Shonts and Morton, they
obtained control of the Clover Leaf.
and in March, 1904, made Mr.. Ross
traffic manager Of that system. A
year later he became second vice
president of the road, in charge of
traffic.
Samuel M. FELTON, is regarded as
ore of +. II. Harriman's most trust
ed railway lieutenants, and undoubt-
edly will hold high position on the
Hartman system when he retires
from the Alton. Many prominent
railway officials are of the opinion
that Mr.. Fciton was slated by Mr.
Hartman f.,r the presidency of the
Illinois Central railroad. but that in
view of the fight being made by
Stuyvesant Fish, Mr.. Hartman is
president II .he latter road.

Representative James E. Watson.
who has bten elected to congress
SIX times from the sixth district, has
announced that he is a candidate for
the nomination for governor on the
Republican ticket and will make an
active campaign for the nomination.
Representative Watson is a pro-
duct of Randolph county. He was
born at Winchester, Nov: 2, 1864,
and was educated at the Winchester
High School and DePauw univer-
sity- His father was one of the
most prominent lawyers of eastern
Indiana, and In seeking a profession
the young man naturally drifted into
the law. He was admitted to the
bar IN 1886. He is member of the
Knights of Pythias and has been
grand chancellor of that order. He
is member of the Methodist church
and has served two terms as presi-
dent of the State Epworth League.
In congress he has made a brilliant
record and his advancement has been
rapid. Probably no other member of
the lower house is as close to Speak
er Cannon as Mr.. Watson. He is a
member of the ways and means COM
mittee and the committee on mer-
chant marine and fisheries and is
whip" of the house, a position sec
ond only to that of the speaker in
managerial Importance
His ability as an orator of tre-
mendous resources has been demon
strsted repeatedly. He was the lead
ing figure on the stump in Indiana
in the campaign of 1904, and the ad-
dresses which he made during that
campaign created a great deal of fav-
orable comment. Speaker Cannon,
who is very fond of him, frequently
refers to him as the most eloquent
man in the house of representatives
on either side"
1t is generally conceded now that
Watson has formally announced
himself in indianapolis newspapers
as well as in the Sixth. district pap
ers and papers outside the state, th-t
the fight will be between him and
Charles W. Miller With the two
playing against each other, third
man may slip himself in. but this is
doubtful The average man today
recognizes only Watson and Miller
in the race. OF the field" William
L. Taylor is most talked about. he
has been perennial candidate who
has fallen by the wayside in former
years after the first ballot.
