FEDERAL REGULATION
He Will Advocate Strict Regulation
and Supervision of Big Corporations
Doing an Interstate Business.-He
Wants Real Facts.

Chicago, ILL.,, April 25.-A dispatch
to the Tribune from Washington says:
Memorial Day at indianapolis will
mark the beginning of a new railroad
crusade On the part of President
Roosevelt. His speech at that time
will be devoted to the future, and
not to the past. He will then explain
for the first time in public his ideas
in regard to over-capitalization of the
railroads. This will be connected
with a proposition for supervision of
corporations doing an interstate bus
mess, and their regulation by the
Federal government as the railroads
are regulated today. Every develop
ment of late shows that the big lines
of railroad are vastly overcapitalized,
some of them from two to ten times
their actual cost. 1t is the purpose of
the President to get at the facts rath-
er than suggest a remedy, but it is
facts the railroad men are anxious to
conceal.

NJ. Slaughter. chairman of the execu-
tive committee of the convention, cal
ed together at the Commercial CLUB
a few night ago as many of his com
mitteemen as possible and "christel-

of artesian water and, breaking 1T over
the miniature of the town said: "Ros-
well, you may not be fit for statehood
but 1 dub you the convention city of

following short address:
"Gentlemen:-
about one year ago in our sister
city on the plains, at the Panhandle
stockmen's convention being neld at
that time and ploce, 1 took upon my
self the authority to invite that assc-
citation to partake of your hospitality
in 1907 Our invitation was accept
ed and upon reporting this to a I eet-
ing of the citizens of Roswell, al ex-
ecutive committee for the purpose of
arranging for the entertainment of
the association was chosen and 1 was
placed as chairman. In being placed
in this position 1 fully realized its
responsibility and fully appreciated
the confidence of the executive COM
mittee II giving me full power to
make the selection of all sub-commit-
tees. Having lived in Roswell for the
past six years, and during that time
been connected with you botn in bu-
siness and social way, 1 felt confident
that such representative citizens as
you of our enterprising little city
would not fall short of anything less
than their full duty to make the en-
tertainment of these visitors within
our walls an u1doubted success. That
you have most excellently fulfilled my

ALL KINDS OF FRUIT
THIS YEAR, SAYS CROFT.

Prof. D. N Croft reports to the Rec
ord that his fruit is not all killed and
predicts that there will be some fruit
of all kinds this year. AS to large
crop ne will not say, but is positive
that all is not dead. In evidence OF
mis- statement he showed the report
er young apples the size of marbles
that are fresh and juicy.
THAT talk about all the fruit being
gone is a mistake, just as it has prov
en- in past years." said Prof Croft.
.You may say over my name" contln-
ued the musician horticulturlist, that
there will be small crop of apples
and some peaches. plums and pears
in the Pecos Valley"
Continuing ON the line of fruit ald
crops prospects, Prof. Croft, said:
There were many delicate trees
that were protected by other objects,
many hardy trees that were not nnrt
and many late varieties that had not
reached the dangerous stage when lie
freezez came The freeze itself will
cause many tres to put out some new
blossoms, and from all these sources
will come partial crop. The Pecos
Valley will eat its own fruit next fall,
mark what I tell you, all other predic-
tions notwithstanding"

Cornell Will Not Run.

Philadelphia, April 25.-CorneH mas
withdrawn its four-mile team, compos
ed of cross-country stars who carried
off the intercollegiate championship
last year, and will take no part in the
Pennsylvation university relay carni-
val to be held on Franklin field Satur-
day. The Ithacans state that cold
weather has rendered proper training
impossible and prevented the men
from getting into condition. Several
other leading eastern universities are
represented among the entries and the
carnival will 40 doubt be as success
full as in past years, despite the defec-
ton of the crack Cornell team.

The handsome loving cup which has
twice been won by the Logan County

the permanent property of that insti-

effort will be made by the other teams

chance of winning the trophy. In ad-

ANOTHER BAD FIRE
A Hundred Summer Cottages and Ho-
tells at Massachusetts, Summer Re-
sort Totally Destroyed by Fire.--An
Eight Story Building coIiapses in
Chicago.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 25.-One of
the most remarkable and spectacular
fires il this vicinity started last
night in the William Zoeller Packing
Company's plant at Allegheny. Early
today when the fire was thought to
be under control the large fireproof
warehouse in which was stored five
hundred thousand pounds of lard,
suddenly burst into flames. All efforts
to extinguish the fire were futile, and
the firemen finally fastened the iron
doors shutting in the burning lard.
The interior of the building became
seethi1g furnace. Streams of burn
ing grease spurted from crevices of
the doors and windows, but the fire
men managed to prevent the fire
spreading Shortly after the fire start
ed a dozen large ammonia tanks ex-
ploded and a panic followed among
the thousands of spectators, but no
one was injured. The loss it at least

mer hotel at Lake Pleasant, two

Eight Story Building collapses.
Chicago, April 25.-The front of an
eight-story building at 1862 Wabash
avenue collapsed early today, tumb-
ling into the street and carrying sew
eral floors with it. The crash was pre-
ceded by 40 warning, and several cab
men on nearby stands had narrow
escapes. The building was Is years
old and had been recently remodeled.
1t is believed that the collapse was
the result of weakening il the re
construction. The loss is estimated at
between thirty and forty thousand
dollars.
