BURLINGTON TRAIN
IN MAY
GREAT NORTHERN FIGURING ON
NEW SERVICE FOR THE
A. Y. p. TRAFFIC.

Whitefish, Jan. FIT is reported
around division headquarters, and
upon what seems like absolutely relia-
BILE authority, that the through Bur-
lington passenger service between
Kansas City and Seattle will start on
May %.
The new train, 1t is understood. Is
to be first class in every respect. and
will mean to Whitefish practically
another transcontinental road.
Twenty-Five new engines, il 10 further
said, have been ordered to handle this
new train from Kansas City to the
coast. and all arrangements for the
service are being completed.
1t Is further understood that the
Great Northern is going to make a
strong bid for passenger traffic at
once, so as to be in readiness to handle
the eastern travel to the Seattle expo
sition. In this connection the Oriental
Limited is to be made the crack trans
continental train of the country.
Among other things, this train is to be
equipped completely with electric light
ing at once, and every effort is to be

A HERO
MAN WHO SENT MESSAGES APP
PEALING FOR HELP FOR RE-
PUBLIC, REMAINS SILENT.

New York, Jan. 27.-Witt the sur
vivors from the steamships Republic
and Florida quartered In hotels
throughout the city or with friends or
relatives, with the Florida In port and
the Republic under 40 odd fathoms of
water south Of Nantucket, Saturdays
disaster has practically passed into
history. Although many little details
and interesting points yet remain to
be cleared, technical instruction of
salvage and of responsibility are the
principal problems which remain I'M
settled. The wreck, barring a few
minor criticisms will be regarded as
one of the most picturesque and at
the same time, admirably handled in
history.
Captain Sealby and Al officers of
the Republic who arrived last night
on the derelict destroyer Seneca, are
yet to be heard from but a statement
from Captain Sealby is expected to-
day.
It has been noted with interest that
]. B. Binns, Familiarity known as
Jack" the Republics wireless opera
tor, who has been declared the silent
hero of the wreck, has maintained a
dignified silence in keeping with the
reputation he has earned. He was on
the Seneca with the Republics crew
last night but refused to be seen. To-
day, however, he will be pressed for
full statement of his experiences,
and one New York paper this morn
ing prints what purports to be an &C
count by him of his vigil at his in
struments.
There appears to be little chance for
saving the Republic as she lies at the
bottom Of the Atlantic at a depth va
riously estimated at from 80 to 40
fathoms in one of the toughest
stretches of water between Hatteras
and Cape Race. Wreckers say that
an effort to float her would be fool
hardy and in the opinion of l.. ]. Mer-
rift, president of the Merritt &
Chapman Wrecking company, no such
attempt will ever be made.
Vessels have been raised from
depth of 80 fathoms, he said, but only
when they lay in sheltered positions
and not in the open sea.
LAS yet we have not got the exact
location Of the Republic" Mr.. Mer-
rift said, but I understand she Is
south OF Nantucket That place is alb
solutely unprotected and while we
might work on her for month with
out mishap, the first storm would ruin
every bit of work accomplished
1t is said at Long Island College
hospital that the condition Of Eugene
Lynch of Boston, whose wife was
killed in their stateroom, Is very crit
ical.
An appeal in behalf Of the crew OF
the Republic, at least for those mem
bers who lost all their belongings
when the vessel sank, has been Is
sude by the Rev. George Mcpherson
Hunter, secretary Of the American
Seamen's Friend society. The appea
says in part:
"They have no clothes except those
they now wear, until they get back
to Liverpool.

DENIES ANY. PROMISE
TO MARRY THE WOMAN

Spokane, Jan. 27.--"Of any promise
on my part to marry the woman
am no more guilty than a departed
friend who dies the death Of right
eousness."
O. E. Kenyon, a wealthy realty op-
orator of Spokane and Seattle, who
recently announced that he will de-
vote the rest Of his life to evangelistic
work, made the foregoing statement
relative to Judgment Of $4,000
awarded to Mrs. Mile Fischer, for
merly of Red Lodge Mont. by the
superior court of King county, for
breach Of promise. He added:
"Such verdicts as these offer no pro-
lection whatsoever to men engaged in
the various and varied pursuits Of life
against the designs Of women with
time hanging heavily on their hands
or otherwise leisurely engaged"
Mrs. Fischer alleged in her COM
plant, asking for damages to the ex-
tent of $4,000, that Kenyon promised
on several occasions he would marry
her, but that he delayed the wedding,
finally breaking off the match.

BIG MERGER HEARING
RESUMED
TRIAL OF HARTMAN CASE COM.
MENCEs AGAIN BEFORE sPE.
CIAl EXAMINER.

Pittsburg, Jan. 27.-The hearing in
the Hartman merger suit was taken
up today by Special Examiner Syl-
vester G. Williams of Denver. Attor-
ney Severance, chief attorney for the
government, accompanied by Mrs.
Severance, arrived here from New
York today. Robert S. Lovett, general
counsel for the Hartman system, APP
peared for the defense.
A number of prominent Pittsburg-
ers who intimated yesterday that they
might disregard the subpoenaes and go
to Chicago decided to remain here and
were present today.
Thomas Johnson, traffic manager of
the Heinze company, testified that no
distinction was made in soliciting
business for the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific. He told of the eff
forts to get trade by the railroads in
the west and said there was no COM
petition between the two roads named.
L. c. Beihler traffic manager of the
Carnegie Steel company, testified that
prior to 1901, the Southern Pacific and
Union Pacific solicited separately for
traffic. Now they have the same
agent, he said.
William ]. Bogert, agent here for the
San Pedro road, between Salt Lake
and Los Angeles, was called and con-
fessed to having asked assistance in
routing freight of Mr.. Herring. who
represents the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific roads.
Attorney Severance asked Bogert If
he did not try to have Mr.. Herring
forget that he was an agent for the
Southern Pacific and as a general for
the Union Pacific.
The witness admitted this and add
ed that Mr.. Herring acts quite neu-
trail" Bogert said Herring does not
| try to get business for him.

New York, Jan. 27.-That a Wrangle
of doctors should have obscured the
splendid spectacle OF DR.. Bulls right
for life even for day is being sadly
regretted among the family and friends
of the heroic surgeon today. Now
that the red tape Of professional ETH
quette has been adjusted, however. the
public continues to watch with I'M
tagging interest this most remark
able exhibition of personal and pro-
fessional pluck. Months ago the news
papers set death watch over the
distinguished patient whom the very
science he excelled in had given way.
Each night reporters have waited
hour after hour for the last news
from the sick room and the Bull "obit''
ready set, has stood at hand to be slid
into the presses at a seconds notice
Each day New Workers scanned their
papers for the unwelcome news and
each day few lines Of type have re-
corded only a daily bulletin of I'M
changed condition. After such brave
struggle the final news will strike the
public all the harder, IL it comes al

Clews, the New York banker, in a let
ter to the Yale News today discussing
the college training as requisite for

he believes a higher education gives
its possessor great advantages in after
life. Mr.. Clews says athletes are soon
forgotten after graduation from col

A New Discovery in
Mems LOck-FrOnt Collars

Under this heading Wanamaker's
Yesterday featured the "Sidewell"
collar, manufactured by Hall. Hart
we'll & Co. of Troy, saying of it:
perhaps the greatest drawback to
the popular high turnover or lock-
front collar has been the difficult
ty that men have always had in
pulling the necktie through to tie
the knot 1t has often been ruin
Gus to both the tie and temper.
That's all changed now. The Slide
well collar Is here. Is cents each.
Two for % cents. Eight styles, and
Wanamaker's has the exclusive sale
of 1t for Greater New York.
THE scheme Is simple one
greater spring in the collar, Civ
ing more clearance between band
and outer fold, and shield that Is
attached to the band of the col
lar covers the back collar button so
that the necktie can't catch in 1t
and bind. The collars will launder,
and you can always get at the but
ton hole.
'Slidewelr collars are the one
improvement that has been made in
mems collars in long while--a

thousand dollars was the total cost of
the national apple show in Spokane,
December z to ~, when premiums OF
an aggregate value of $4,000 were

decided upon the latter part Of Jam

iiminary work for this years show.
Several cities in the middle west, in
GLIDING Chicago and Omaha, are cam

is likely to capture it, in which event
the Spokane association will have full
charge.
