SANTA FEE GETS NEW ROAD.
Has Purchased the Santa Fe Central
Saws RumOr

Santa Fe, N. NJ, April at is re-
ported on good authority that the New
Mexican Central railroad, an independ-
ent line 116 miles long, connecting with
the Rock Island at Torrance, has been
purchased by the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa F'e Railway company.
This road was built five years ago by
Pittsburg capitalists, of whom Francis
J. Torrance. w. c. Hagan. w. H. An
drews and A. G. Kennedy were the
moving spirits, and represents an out
lay of almost 100000. The Rock
Island had a traffic agreement with
the Ell Paso & Southwestern, which
expires July l.
The Rock Island will effect a traffic
agreement with the Santa Fe for use
of the Central & Albuquerque Eastern
into Albuquerque. so the Rock Island
can get into Ell Paso, Texas, over the
Rio Grande division of the Santa Fee.
The refusal of the Ell Paso & South
western railway to renew the traffic
agreement with the Rock Island
brought about the purchase of the
Central by the Santa Fe. A branch of
the Central is being built to Albu-
querque, and it will be rushed to COM
pletion.
The New Mexico Central has never
been a paying road, and it's purchase
by the Santa F'e is gratifying, as it
will make this road an important con-
Meeting link.
It is believed that the branch line be-

The success which has followed l..
T. Cooper during the past year with
his new preparation, Cooper's New
Discovery, is unparalleled. Cooper has
a novel theory. He believes that the
human stomach is directly responsible
for most disease. To quote his own
words from an interview upon his ar
rival in an eastern city: THE average
man or woman cannot be sick if the
stomach is working properly. To be
sure, there are diseases of a virulent
nature, such as cancer, tuberculosis,
diabetes, ETC., which are organic, and
are not traceable to the stomach, but
ten. be traced to something taken into
nervous exhaustion that is now so

will and does regulate the stomach
that 1 am meeting with such success.

For several years. says Mr. Turk
I was in badly weakened and run

bloat, and be in pain and distress for
several hours. An all-gone feeling
would come over me, and 1 had no
energy nor ambition whatever. This
condition continued for a long time,

Der of patent remedies, without relief.
ION reading of Mr.. Cooper's
theory I became convinced that he
was right, and procured several bot
ties of his New Discovery preparation,
in order to test his claims. 1t afforded
prompt relief, and when 1 had taken
three bottles, my trouble has dis
appeared and I was feeling like a diff
ferent man. To make my restoration
sure l took two more bottles of the
New Discovery. 1t has now been sew
eral months since / stopped taking
the Cooper medicine. and I have ex-
perienced no pain or~distress IN that
time. although I eat anything I wish.

TO PURCHASE AIRSHlPS.
Canadian Military Equipment Is in
Contemplation.

New York, April 2.-Canada is not to
be outdone by Europe in the matter of
up-to-date military equipment. Accord
ing to Glenn H. Curtiss, the aeroplane
expert of Hamn.ondsport, N. Y, who
has been identified with Alexander Ora
ham Bell, and the aerial experiments in
Baddeck, N. S., negotiations are under
way looking to the purchase by the
Dominion government of one or more
machines of the Silver Dart type with
which the association has successfully
experimental. There is also a proba-
bility that the Silver Dart will be ship
ped to England for tests there under
the supervision of English army Off

After being in operation for Is months
the experiments at Baddeck were
brought to a close Wednesday and the

Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.

At least it is beginning to look as
though the Missouri Pacific was going
to make peace with Topeka, and i'm
prove the much abused Kansas, Ne
braska & Dakota line. This line has
been source of annoyance ever since
it was built and has been the laughing
stock of all the country which it
traverses. But if the rumors of Mis-
souri, Pacific improvements which are
now pervading Topeka are crystallized
into some definite form and carried to
completion Topeka may some day be
glad that she has this little road run
ming into her midst
{ The Goulds as is now well known are
going to spend over s3S,0o0,o0o in Kan
SaS during the summer, of this amount
S3,5O0.00O is ready right now and has
been placed in banks at the disposal of
the officials of the road
OF course the main portion of these
vast funds will be spent in improving
the main line from Kansas City west
te Pueblo, but there will also be some
of it spent on the line from Fort Scott
to Topeka.
Down near Fort Scott the work of i'm
proving the Topeka branch is already
under way. The right of way is being
regarded in some places and new ties
and rails are being placed along the
line. These will be put on this branch,
and it is reported that new ties and
rails will be placed along the entire line,
although this has not been verified.
West of Fort Scott on the branch which
runs to Wichita new S0-pound rails are
being used but it is doubtful whether
the rails to be used on the K. N. & D.
will exceed 20 pounds to the yard.
Another item of interest in connec-
ton with the K. N. & D. branch into
Topeka, is the possibility of at least
one new freight train this summer and
possibly two extra freights which will
make daily trips.
These trains are necessitated by the
Fort Scott paving brick shipments
which will be sent to Topeka during the
summer Over 500 carloads will be sent
here. This will make business pick up
for the Gould line and may result in
one or two extra train crews being tenn
porarily located here
There is plenty of business in Topeka
for the Missouri Pacific any time the
roadbed and property are fixed up in
any kind of condition fit to handle the
business. Also when the passenger train
service is improved so that 1t will be
possible for residents OF the little towns
down the line to come to Topeka in the
morning and return home the same
night, instead Of arriving here in the
afternoon and being compelled to return
home the next morning.

MISSOURI PACIFIC BUYS BALLAST
failing Purchased in Webb City Dis
trict Cost $4,000

Webb City, Mo-, April 2.-That the
greater part of a 100000 appro-
priation recently made by the direc-
tors of the Missouri Pacific railroad
for the improvement of its road bed
will be used in the purchase of tailings
in the Joplin district is the state
ment of officials Of the company fol-
lowing a visit of General Superin-
tendent Gould, who, with a number of
others, spent the greater part of the
day at Webb City investigating the
situation.
During the day contracts were
made with owners of failing piles in
all parts of the district near here.
The railroad magnates in their spec
ial car were taken on a tour of in
spection over the many mining
spurs and switches, where the largest
available failing piles are located.
AS the result of the contracts made
yesterday it is said that within a
week Is train loads Of As cars each,
will be forwarded daily from the
Webb City-Joplin district to all parts
of the Missouri Pacific system.
Ultimately, it is said, the use of tall
ings thus begun will be extended I'M

HARTMAN OPTIMISTIC.
Returns to New York a Refrigerated
Man.

New York, April 2.-E. H. Harri-
man reached here late Thursday, to
all appearances a refrigerated man af-
ter his long combination vacation and
business trip over the network of
Hartman railroads in the west. the
southwest and in Mexico. Mr.. Harri-
man said he found in the west and
southwest a vastly changed sentiment
toward the railroad with such a SEN
timent there would be encouragement
for the railroads to go ahead with de-
velopment work, he thought.
Repeal of repressive state laws is
imperative If the railroad lines the
people need and that the railroads
want to build are to be constructed.
The truth is, that the states in
adopting these laws only followed the
example of the national government.
Now the national government should
set the reverse example and in
augurate the notifications. I should
say not repeal but REIMBURSEMENT of
the laws regulating corporations is
the necessary process.
