Montgomery, Ala, Jan. 21.-The AL
aDama railroad commission has con-
scented to the taking on OF one train a
day each way ON the Alabama North
ern division of the Southern Railway;
also to one train a day on the Mobile
and Birmingham, save that there will
be a local train between Suggsville
and Mobile, q distance OF seventy-ftve
mics. This will throw the old Jas
per-Sheffield service on the Nothern
Alabama back to what it was long ago,
one train a day, each way
At the same time the Southern has
been denied the privilege of taking of
one of the trains on the Akron branch
and also refused the request to stop
the Rome and Wilton train at Chill
dersburg. The two last-named propo-
sitions have before been denied and
the commission is going to hesitate
Long time before allowing the service
over the two routes mentioned reduced
because it is believed it cannot be
acne without great Inconvenience to
the pubIic. All trains referred to are
passenger trains.
This is the second move IN the re-
duction of trains that has been made
NV this road in few weeks. AS
result of this the other trains were
taken off between Birmingham anu

How One Brilliant Woman
Looks on Defense in
the Thaw Case.
(By Dorothy Dix
By Hearst News Service.

New York, Jan. 21.-Never did a
man buy his life at so shameful a
price as Harry Thaw has. Any man
whose soul was not. cinders would
have died any death rather than have
the woman he loved, the wife he had
sworn to cherish and protect, publish
her dishonor to the world in order
that he might hide behind her. Yet,
not once. but twice, has Harry Thaw
sought petticoat protection and let his
wife hold up her bedraggled skirts for
all to see.
just one thing on earth could ex-
cuse such a craven deed and that ex-
,cuse is the young millionaire's. He
is such a moral and mental idiot, he
does not realize the enormity of his
offense.
You saw this-had it inexorably
born in upon you-when Evelyn Mes
bit Thaw went for the second time on
the witness stand to tell her story. 1t
is a loathsome story, that carried her
down into the gutter, yet her husband
sat and listened to details that made
the audience sick and faint with hor-
ror with a fatuous smile of compla-
cency on his face. He looked as the
ordinary. normal husband would look
| if his wife came home and told him
| that she had been elected to the Sor-
osis. or that she had the prettieSt
| gown at a smart O'Clock tea.
| ONLY once did he show the slightest
sign of emotion of modification. and
| that was during the time that Evelyn
related how she had been deceived to
Whites studio and drugged. During

the next breath EVELYN related how
noble and generous and chivalrous
Harry Thaw had been to her and TAX

| It seemed almost grotesque folly to

| silly grin. 1t showed so plainly that

no continuous, and connected impress

RHODE ISLAND
SENATORSH|P
Republicans Have the Votes,
But Seem Unable to
Line Them Up.
By Associated Press

Providence, r. l., Jan. 21-The.
members of both branches of the
Rhode Island general assembly had
before them today the election of a
United States senator to succeed
George Peabody Wetmore Today's
voting was q continuation of the bal
lOting, which occupied most of the
time of the general assembly at the
last session. and which at the time of
adjournment, was still in deadlock.
The first ballot today was the eighty
fifth in the contest. Senator Wet
more was the republican candidate
for reelection, and as the republicans
have II votes to the democrats and
Lincoln party, a united vote of 80, it
was believed before the balloting be-
gan that he would be returned to
Washington over Col Robert H. l..
Goddard. who had the endorsement of
both the democrats and Lincoln
party.

Louisville, Jan. 21.-At the after

nigh time for church people who

QUESTION
Has Been Compromised But
Success is in
Sight.

Washington, Jan. 27. An en-
abling act providing for the ad-
mission Of New Mexico as a
state will not be passed at this
session Of Congress according to
rumors in circulation here which
are believed to be correct, How
ever, the statehood matter will
be simply held in allegiance until
| the short session Of Congress,
when it is understood assurances
have been given Governor Curry,
Delegate Andrews, National Com
mitteeman Luna, Chairman II.
0. Bursum and other prominent
New MeXicans that the bill will
be allowed to pass.
1t is reported that this decis-
ion was reached after a confer
ence of Republican leaders of
both branches Of the National
Legislature who felt it would be
unwise to admit another state
until after the coming presiden-
tial election.
Governor Curry is quoted as
saying he is satisfied with this
agreement which was in the ma
ture Of a compromise, and will
notify the big delegation Of
statehood boomers who were to
follow him here, not to come.
