KANSAS LOSES A RATE CASE.
No Reduced Freight Rates on the
LeaVenworth & Topeka Railroad.

Topeka, Kan, Dec. 17.-In their
fight to prevent the Kansas railroad
commissioners from inforcing an or
der reducing freight rates in the state,
the railroads Wednesday won a VIC
tory in the findings of Judge q. T.
Hazen, special master in the case con-
corning the Leavenworth & Topeka
line. The railroad boards order re-
duces rates about 20 per cent. The
railroads contended they could not pay
expenses under this order and got a
temporary restraining order from the
United States circuit court to prevent
its enforcement. The case against the
Leavenworth & Topeka road was So
lected as a test. The state showed
the stock of the Leavenworth G. To-
peka railway as owned, 40 per cent
by the Union Pacific and 81 per cent
by the Santa Fe and contended that
1t should not be considered as a sep
arate road. The special master held
the road should be considered by It,
self. It is operated by the Santa Fe.
It was brought out In the testimony
that 1t never does pay expenses and
that its joint ownership always have
to put up money to meet them.

EVIDENCE IN HAMS TRIAL
STORY or MURDER ILLUSTRATED
WITH MODELS.
Edwin Andrews, a Yacht Club Mem.
Der, Traces Movements Of Prln-
olpals During Tragedy.

Flushing, N. Y, Dec. 17.-The story
of the staying Of William q. Annis.
as he sat In his catboat, and was rid
died with bullets, was Wednesday
made part of the record In tie trial
Of Thornton ]. Hams, magazine
writer, charged with being a princi-
pal with his brother, Capt. Peter @.
Hams, Jr, in the murder of Annis
last summer.
Tracing the movements of the prin.
cipals at the Bayside Yacht club
tragedy with the aid Of miniature iron
figures and models of the float and
the catboat Pam, Edwin Andrews, q
yacht club member, showed under ex-
animation how the army captain
standing on the floats edge held aloft
the obscuring boom and sail Of Annis'
boat and shot the publisher as he sat
at the tiller.
The cross-examination Of Andrews
consumed the major portion Of the af-
ternoon and Lawyer Mcintyre sought
to develop that Thornton Hams had
said after the shooting that he had
tried to dissuade Capt. Hams from his
act and that he would hold him until
the officers came.
Special Prosecutor White declared
evidence would be brought out to
show that Thornton Hams had full
knowledge of his brothers intention
to kill Annis and virtually led the
way to the yacht club and directed
the search for the publisher. Mr.
White declared that Thornton Hams
pointed his revolver at Mrs. Annis
and prevented her from going to the
aid of her wounded husband.

markable fight in his aeroplane

rocket to a height of $40 feet. The
aeronaut then permitted 1t to drop
about so feet, and then stopped the
engine. The machine glided down
smoothly and gracefully, landing about
three-quarters of a mile from the
starting point. Members of the En-

Practically to pick 100000 horsepower
off the tops of eight roaring blast fur
naccs and to use it in performing a hun
bred giant tasks is the purpose of the
colossal apparatus now being installed
in the wonderful steel plant building of
Gary, Ind.
BY means of a heretofore unthought of
extension of the use Of the blast furnace
and PUT to work q power which has been
only partly used up to now, and which
was once utterly wasted. And that that
power will entirely diSplace steam in the
great mills, and that the rolling of more
than 100000 tons of steel ingots per
year will be but one portion of the work
It will perform, indicates the tremendous
Importance of the Innovation
For every ton of pig iron which flowed
for many years from the mouths of the
worlds blast furnaces the power OF
twenty-five horses was generated and
wasted. Unrecognized, hundreds of thou
sands of horsepower that might have

that cluster around the most useful of
the metals was lost in green and yellow
fireworks before men began to see. Now,
by q process that has been a growth,
but which has only just reached perfec-

THE CALL OF THE SOIL.
Days of Financial Stress Make Farm
Lands Look Rich.

4. A staff contributor of Southern
newspaper has taken up the question
, of the return to the farm of many who
had forsaken it for the glitter of the
city. He says: at is Il well-known fact
that the history of this government
shows that those men who have been
most successful in life and who have
left their impress upon its people and
its institutions as statesmen, soldiers,
hnanciers, have as a rule been those
whose youth was spent on the farm,
and 1t is to such as these that there
comes with overmaStering power THE
CALL OF THE SOIL. More especially
does it come with redoubled persuasive
ness, greater power and swecter plead
ing to the man of affairs when the
clouds of financial unrest begin to dark
en- the sky; when the cry of panic
causes people to lose their wits and act
like stampeded cattle; when with rea-
son or without reason there arises be-
lore him the specter of ruin, grinning
in his face and waving its gaunt arms
in threatening gesticulation.
The pitiable state into which some
men were brought by the recent finan-
cial furry, which happily is now pass
ed. suggests these reflections. Some
were ruined and a very few became in
sane because of their losses. Two or
three took their own lives
1t is when such times come
that the statesman. the great finan-
cier, and the man of affairs becomes
tired of the struggle. He lays down
his pen, turns from his desk and
listens to THE CALL OF THE SOIL.
There are hundreds Of cases through
out the United States of those who
have money in the banks and are look
ing for investment in lands. No
investment is better or safer. Take
for instance, the lands in West
ern Canada that can be bought
at from $40 to So per acre
which yield a revenue equal to and
often greater than their original cost.
These lands make certain invest
ment. During the past two months
large investments in these lands have
been made. some intending to use the
lands for farming purposes of their
own, others to resell to farmer
friends. The agents of the government
of Canada located at different points
throughout the United States have in
their possession particulars of districts
in which there are free homestead
grants OF 100 acres, each accessible 10
railways. markets, schools. churches.
etc. These are valuable lands. These
agents will be pleased to give informa-
ton to any DESTROYS of securing and
will tell all about the railway rates,
