RAIL WAYS SHOW
PROSPERITY ERA
SEPTEMBER BUSINESS EXCEEDS
THAT FOR SAME MONTH IN 1908
BY WIDE MARGIN.
COAL AND IRON IMPROVES.
From Virginia and Carolinas the Ship
ment of Lumber Increased Over
Fifty Per Cent.
! CANNED MEATS SHOW A SLUMP.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 1.-Pros-
perity has arrived, according to a state
ment issued by the bureau of statistics
of the department of commerce and Ia
Dor.
During September the business of the
country and the movement OF railway
freight cars reached proportions which
excelled those of the same month last
year. In fact, the bulletin declares,
while the number of idle ears ut the
end of last month had not altogether dis
appeared there We're indications that Il
car shortage would quickly develop.
Coal and Iron Improves.
These improved conditions are most
pronounced in the coal and iron trades.
'rhe movement of lumber also was some
what heavier. From Virginia and the
Caroinas the shipment OF lumher III.
creased IS per cent. over september ol
last year, but there was a sharp tailihS
off in the quantity of yellow pine received
at New York from that received IN Au-
gust, although the receipts were heari9
double those of one year ago.
There was considerable slump IN
The receipts of grain and flour at the four
leading seaports, and the receipts OF
grain AT fifteen of the principal interior
markets likewise were below the aggre-
gate for September, 1905. a similar
condition is uncovered i'll the shipment of
packing houses from Chicago. the chief
slump being on canned meats, which
show relative loss over the correspond
ing figures of 1908 of approximately 40
per cent.
Number of Cars Handled
The report shows that the September
total of cars handled was 2,993,OO3, or al
most 10 per cent. III excess OF the cor
responding month of last year.

KISS AND SEEK DEATH
YOUNG COUPLE, DISCOURAGED
ATTEMPT SUICIDE.
Orphans Buy Square Meal and Carbollc
Acid with Their Last Money
Want to Live.

CHICAGO, H., Nov. Lets drink
to death. sweetheart, and then Wen die
together
With that toast as a farewell, John
II. Hollis, and Mary Hollis, his bride of
six months. both Of whom were discour-
aged to the point of desperation, drank
carbolic acid from two small bottles in
their room at the Chicago hotel and then
lay down to die.
Thanks to suspicious druggist they
both are alive. The acid he sold them
was diluted, and while the heartbroken
pair are in precarious condition at a
hospital, physicians say they will recoV-
er.
The story told by Hollis and his girl
wife after they We're taken to the hos
ptal brought tears to the eyes of the
hardened policemen who took them there
and the physicians who worked hours to
overcome the effects of the poison.
1t was the story Of the pathetic little
romance Of two orphans; of the young
mans marriage to the girl for whom he
had cared as a brotfer; of their joint
struggle To save pittance with which
to begin Il welded life, and, finally, Of
their dreams of future that was
dashed by the failure of the husband
TO find work. Hollis is - years old.

DAIRYMEN OF WISCONSIN INSURE
ENTERPRISE OF IMPORTANCE.

MADISON, Wis, Nov. Ii Special.l
A Cow contest" with the whole state

augurated as result of the national
dairy show at Milwaukee. The Cow
Culture club is now being formed. Two
thousand dollars will be awarded i'll
prizes ranging from 500 to $500 each.
This unique enterprise Is modelled
after the Iowa Cow Culture club. w.
NJ Marsh, a Guernsey breeder of Iowa,
at the recent Milwaukee show offered
$1,000 to launch Wisconsin Cow Cul-
tur club provided Wisconsin duplicates
the sum. This money is assured.
Entries for the competition began to-
day, and close November |, 1910. All
the details of the contest will be under
the supervision of Prof George G.
Humphrey and Prof. F. w. VOL of the
Wisconsin agricultural college.

MORE BOMBS THROWN
TWO SHAKE GAMBLERS QUARTERS
IN CHICAGO.
Both Are Aimed at "Big Ed" Wagner
and Are First Under Chief Stew
ards Regime.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 1.-Two more
bombs were exploded Sunday night in
downtown Chicago, in defiance of the
police. the states attorneys office, and
the efforts of countless private inyestiga-
tors.
The explosions, perhaps even more en-
phatically than any that have gone be-
fore bore the marks of gamblers war
fare. Both bombs were aimed. it would
appear, at Big Ed" Wagner.
The trst explosion, at G:l0 o'clock,
partly wrecked the building at 2G0 State
street, the fifth and sixth floors Of which
are occupied, it is said, by Wagner. The
old time gambling combination Of Smith,
Perry x White, recently changed to
Smith, Jones Il Co., turned the premises
over to Wagner within Il week, insiders
said.
Thirty minutes after the first bomb
was reported, the second exploded at
40 Madison street. The third floor of
this building is occupied in part by the
Worth Jockey club, of which also Wag-
ner who is an old race horse man, is the
reputed owner.
The latest outrages, numbered bombs
''332 and SO. in the so-called' gamblers
warfare are the first under Chief Stew
ards administration and the first since
Iuypector LAWN was told to make it his
particular business 10 capture those re-
sponsible for previous explosions. There
is Il certain timclness in these bombs
also from the fact that the trial of Vim
cent \. Altman. charged with response
biIity for the last previous explosion
that in the rear of the Chicago Telephone
exchange Oh June p, Is set for hearing
this week. Altman and his brother Jo-
seph are accused also Of dynamiting and
burning n mill on the south side in the
case Of the telephone exchange bomb
the theory on which Altman was indict-
ed was that it was not a gambling but
labor war case.
As in every previous bomb case, the
perpetrators covered their tracks perfect
" Sunday night. Policemen in uniform
and in plain clothes were ut the buildings
before the smoke entirely cleared away,
and everybody about the premises was
closely questioned. but the commanding
officers retired in the early hours of the
morning without any tangible clews.
