James J. Hill Declares They

Arrangements Have Done All
In Power to Increase Eff

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 2l.-Jas.
j. Hill. Of st. Paul, executive head
OF the great Northern railroad was
the principal speaker at the annual
banquet of the Commercial club in
this city Tuesday. Hill discussed the
Commercial Development Of the
Mississippi Valley" and gave a COM
prehensive history and review Of the
industrial conditions as they exist
today. He said.
"The transportation facilities Of
the country have the right to be
proud Of their record and resent the
criticism supported by nothing bet
ter than ignorant defamation Peo-
pie should realize that there is a
physical limit to the capacity Of a
railroad. 1t has been their habit to
regard the railway as means Of
transportation over which an indefi-
mite business may be done, limited
only by the policy or wishes Of the
management.
Common fairness requires the
application of the same treatment Of
railroads as of other property, and
comparisons as to rates, as to effici-
ency, as to capitalization per mile,
and as to earning power, place the
railway systems Of the United States
far above any other country in the
world in service, value and useful
conduct.
1.-The whole situation declares we
must have more new lines, more
double tracks, more and greatly en-
larged terminal facilities"

Tale of q Hog and a Bear.

Manitou, Col, Oct. 29.-There Is
a suspicion that nature faker has
penetrated to the ranch of Grove
Brothers, near here. for a strange
tale has been brought from that place.
1t is said that while huge Arkansas
razorback hog battled for its life
with a big brown bear, three unarm-
ed men watched.
The bear, so the story goes. sneak
ed upon the hog and was surprised
when 1t gave battle. The brutes
fought savagely for two hours, when
they fell exhausted. The bear had
enough, and after brief rest crept
away. while the hog raised up on
his forefeet and glared at 1t. The
hogs wounds will probably prove
fatal.

RUSSIAN GIRL STOLEN.
Daughter of Police Official Disap.
pears i'm London.


London, oct. 3O.-London is all
agog over the mysterious disappear
ance of young Russian girl, Miss
Barbara Lapoukhine, whose mother
is Russian Princess, and daughter
of Alexander Lapoulthine, who was
Director of the st. Petersburg police
under Plehve.
There are two theories OF her dis
appearance. One is that she was Kid
mapped by Russian Revolutionists out
of revenge for the acts of her fathe.
while in his Official position.
The other theory is that her kid
nappers are not Reyolutionists, bu.
members of the Black Hundreds.
This theory seems tenable because
her father played a notable and very
honorable part In exposing the ma
ohinery by which the pogroms or
raids against the Jews have been os-
ganized.
