TWO-CENT SCOTT
TO START PAPER
Daily News Special.


Jackson, Miss, October lot is re-
ported that Hon. w. r. Scott, of Eu-
pora, Webster County. is to start a
new paper in that town on January 1.
The proposed paper is not to be a
newspaper-or at least not a general
newspaper-but will be devoted en-
tirely to politics and state and ma
tional affairs, from a Democratic
viewpoint.
Mr.. Scott is himself a politician of
some Importance, and a staunch Dem
ocrat, and will have associated with
him, it is said, other competent men,
with the purpose of giving the pro-
posed publication a national prestige.
1t is to be printed in magazine style,
somewhat unlike any other publica-
tion in the state.

KUHN, LOEB & COMPANY
WILL BACK BOTH ROADS
Consummation Of the Merger An
nounced in New York This Morning
and Is Regarded as Most important
Railroad Transaction of the Year.
Hearst News Service.

New York, October 10.-It is an
nounced here today that the Rock
Island Railroad, which controls mile
age only second to that of Harriman's S
Union Pacinc and is Harriman's chief
competitor in the middle west, has
made arrangements with Kuhn, Loeb
& Co. whereby that house will act
as fiscal agent for the Rock Island
and subsidiary companies.
The firm of Kuhn, Loeb e Co. is
back of all the Hartman lines and the
important feature of the transaction
is that the bitter warfare which has
heretofore existed between the two
great railroad systems must now
cease.
This is regarded as the most import
ant railroad development of the year.

To BORE
FOR OIL
Jefferson County Citizens Think
That They Have Struck
the Real Article.

1t is learned, on what appears to
be good authority, that a company is
to be formed to bore for oil in the
neighborhood of Rodney, in the north
ern portion of Jefferson County, on the
Mississippi river.
For several years there has been
a suspicion that oil existed in that
neighborhood, but the place is off the
railroad, and the suspicious have here
tofore been confined almost entirely to
local people. who have never thought
enough of it to invest any money in it.
Recently, however, an expert who
was interested in the enterprise at
Beaumont, Tex, and later at Jen-
nings, La, visited the scene and made
personal investigation of the condi-
tions, after which he pronounced it a
very favorable location in which to
spend some money in experimenting,
and it has been decided to invest some
100000, the work to be commenced
during the winter
The first suspicion that this section
was tainted with oil was on the part
of some hunters who observed that a
sort of gas arose on the water. and
which when lighted, would burn for
several minutes.

RUMORS ARE STARTED
To BAFFLE OFFICERS
Report That Fugitive Had Been Seen
in the Vicinity of Canton Proved
Without the Least Foundaton-Rel-
atives Are Being Watched.

Jackson, Miss, October 10.-The
federal authorities in this city have
received positive proof against several
persons who have been giving aid to
Will Sorsby, the fugitive assassin of
Postoffice Inspector Fitzgerald, and
they are being kept under strict sur
veillance.
That Sorsby is being harbored by
relatives in Kinds and Madison Coun-
ty, fitting to and from during the
hours of the night, is the firm belief
of the government sleuths engaged
in the case, and, while they decline
to divulge any names, it is known that
they have obtained evidence against
these parties, and, in event of Sorsby's
capture, it is stated that they will also
be placed under arrest for giving aid
to fleeing homicide.
The federal authorities furthermore
have reason to believe that numerous
reports, rumors, theories, clues, etc.,
are being put in circulation by Sors-
by's friends and relatives for the pur-
pose of deceiving the officers engaged
in the search. and they are paying lit
tie attention to rumors likely to be in
spired from these sources, feeling con.
fident that If Sorsby ever gets away
from his relatives and attempts to
leave the state that he will be taken
into custody.
Last night the federal authorities
followed off what proved to be false
TRAIL report coming from Canton
that Sorsby had been seen in the
Morty neighborhood, about eighteen
miles from that place. The report was
given investigation. and at the same
time the secret service men were
watching other avenues through which
Sorsby might attempt to escape.

ING WHEN SHE ARRIVES

HAS BIG LOAD OF FREIGHT
Because Of the Argos Quick Service
Most of the Merchants Are Order
ing Their Freight Shipped BY This
Boat

TILLAM0OK, Or, Dec. 2i-There
was considerable rejoicing in this city
when the Argo arrived on her maiden
trip from Portland, and she was rel
ceived with a most hearty cheer BY
the people. She crossed in yesterday
morning and unloaded part Of her
cargo at Bay City. It was after 7
o'clock when she arrived here and
owing to her length Il was predicted
that she could not come up the slough
on so small tide, but she did so and
an hour and half before high tide,
without the least trouble, rounding
the numerous curves in the slough
without touching the bank. The Argo
no sooner tied up at the lumber com
pany's dock than she commenced to
unload. something unusual in this
city, and much to the surprise and JOY
Of people here she sailed early next
morning to return yesterday Most
OF the merchants are ordering their
freight shipped by the Argo, and the
farmers say that unless they patronize
+, her they will withdraw their trade.
