HERRICK IS
SURVEYING
new ROUTE
Rumor That Pearl River Valley
Railroad is Soon to Be Con-
Y structed By Syndicate
Daily News Special.

Daily News Special
Jackson, February 2.-For the past
week corps of six surveyors have
been at work running lines through
the northern part of the city, and thus
far it has been impossible to ascer-
tain the purpose of their survey.
Members of the crew decline to
make any statement whatever rela.
tive to their corporate connection, but
1t is well-settled opinion that they
are employed by the Pearl River Val.
ley Railroad Company, for which q
charter was issued by the Governor
nearly three years ago.
Only few days since it was learn
ed from semi-official sources that Fred
Herrick, the Milwaukee millionaire
lumberman who is the principal pro
moter Of this proposed line, and who
owns about $4,000 acres Of timber
lands in the Pearl river valley, was
engaged in negotiations to finance the
road and this is seeming verification
OF the belief that surveyors are map
ping out a route to connect this pro-
posed road with the main line Of the
Illinois Central at some point in the
northern suburbs Of the city.

er and he followed closely the lines
laid down by Mr.. Pinson, mentioning
in detail several crimes which he
traced directly to-the use of liquor.
He rejoiced that Mississippi now has
a statewide prohibition law, and
pledged every resource within the ex-
ecutive power to the aid of its en-
forcement.
Ex-Gov. Jas. X. Vardaman was next
called to the rostrum, and in a some
what lengthy address, in his usually
eloquent site, endorsed fully the move
ment. but qualified his position by
sprefacing his remarks with the state
ment that he was not present to gloat
over the punishment of offenders; that
he took no delight whatever in the
punishment OF a criminal. but rather
pitied him; that the present fight
should be against crime rather than
criminals.
The last speaker was Hon. C. H.
Alexander. who endorsed the remarks
of Gov. Vardaman and made some
similar ones on his own account,
closing with request for subscrip-
tions to pay the cost of keeping up
the work already begun; himself head
ing the list with 500 and two others
following suit. Several $25 conrrI-
buttons followed after which the t1s
ure' was dropped to $40 and number
Of others contributed. Finally hats
were passed through the audience,
and in this way practically all of the
$1,000 requested was raised.
After the adoption of resolution
providing for the appointment of
committee of seven for the purpose
of perfecting the plan to broaden the
scope of the organization to state
wide basis, the meeting was adjourn
ed.
The pictures which were promised
for last night, are now scheduled to
be shown in the First Baptist church
tonight, and it is expected that quite
large gathering will witness the
show. No admission fee is to be
charged. No explanation was offered
for the failure to show them last night

Nashville, Tenn, February 2.-Judge
j. NJ. Anderson, leading counsel for
the defense of the Coopers and Sharp,
charged with the assassination Of Ex-
Senator Carmack, today in open court
denounced the headlines over a news
story published in the morning edlc,on
of the Nashville Tennessean, of which
Carmack was editor at the time of his
death.
The headline in the Tennessean
said that counsel for the defense had
charged Whitworth with perjury.
Judge Anderson said that the pubIica-
ton of such a fabrication was dam
aging to Whitworth and served to pre-
judice the defense in the eyes of the
public.
The matter OF the competency of
Whitworth was passed until later In
the day. The court is filled with ven-
iremen anxious to know their fate.

paying the expenses of continuing the
campaign against the blind tiger and

ployment of dectives.
The meeting was called to order by

telling something of his working meth

amples Of crime which he found in
