Plenty o~fExercise Necessary.
Plenty of regular exercise must be
taken in order. to keep the body in q
healthy condition. Any excessive or
unusual exertion, however, is sure to
cause stiffness and soreness Of the
muscles and joints.
To cOi1nteract this effect there is
nothing better than Sloan's Liniment.
Lay it ON lightly where the muscles
have been strained; it requires no rub.
bing for it penetrates right to the
bone, relieves any congestion and In
Aammation anu makes the muscles
elastic and plant.
Sloan's LiEiment is a great boon ro
athletes, for it not only relieves pain
and stiffness, but it is an excellent
remedy for sprains, -c'lts. bruises and
cramps.

writes:-"I am an engineer on the
Southern Road from Chattanooga tt

walton OF my arm upon the throttle

The Recent Estimates of Mr.. Harri
mans Personal Wealth.

New York, Sept s.-Recent esti-
mates of Mr.. Harriman's personal
wealth have varied all the way from
$50, 900, 900 to 500, 900. He was of
course. large holder of securities of
the various properties with which he
was identified. including in addition
to the Union Pacific and Southern Pa
cific systems, over a score of smaller
or tributary properties. not only in
this country but In Mexico as we'll.
Report credited him with large per
sonal holdings in the Atchison. To-
peka s. Santa Fe road. Baltimore &
Ohio, Delaware & Hudson. Erie. llli-
nois Central New York Central and
Pacific Mail Steamship company. His
holdings of Brooklyn Rapid Transit
stock and bonds were very large
few years ago and these have proba-
bly, been increased in late years. He
was reported to have been the largest
individual stockhOlder in the Wells
Fargo Express company. which only
recently acquired a virtual monopoly
of the express business in Mexico,
Mr.. Harrimans real estate holdi-ss
in this city were comparatively small.
His horie al Arden is said to repre-
sent an OUTLAW Of over 100000.
Norwich bulletin. [volume] (Norwich, Conn.) 1895-2011, 1909-09-10

bountiful crops which he himself in
one of his last notable interviews
prophesied would be one of the great
est sustaining factors of American
credit. With these facts in mind and
the general knowledge that Mr.. Harri-
man in any event could not long con-
tinue his active career, Wall street had
already prepared itself for the end
which came today There was no feel
ing of shock or alarm, therefore, when
the announcement came beyond the
sentiment of general personal sorrow,
and as the hours progressed it became
evident that there was a general feeling
of security and even of serenity as to
the future.
For a time there was some talk
among the leaders of finance as to the
desirability of informally comforting,
but even this precaution was deemed
unnecessary. The representative men
of Wall street left for their homes
about the usual hour this afternoon.
Such prominent figures as ]. P Nor
gan. Jacob II. Schiff. James Stillman
and George w. Perkins went to their
various homes without concerted ac-
'stion. RizeS all expressed a feeling of
deep personal regret, but most of them
desired to avoid an offhand or hurried
appreciation of a career so notable as
that OF Mr. Hartman.
= No Change in His Plans Expected.
: 1t is believed by Mr.. Harriman's as
sociates that the railroad system which
he organized and carried forward to
such a degree of success will be con-
tinued with practically no change of
policy and that plans TO that end were
perfected by Mr.. Hartman long before
his death
Numerous reports were current in
financial quarters during the after
noon concerning the status of the vast
properties under Mr.. Harrimans -direc-
tion, one of these reports being that
his securities in the railroad properties
of which he was the head had been
trusteed and were held intact for the
greater safety of his estate and the
properties concerned. However, there
was no authoritative opinion forth
coming on this report or upon the gen
eral disposition to be made of his
property.

Hartford, Conn, Sept. 9.-Official
state recognition was given to the Con-

today by the presence of Governor
Weeks and his staff. His excellency
made an address in which he eulogized
the farmer and paid tribute to his
sturdy indep pendence. which hef charac-
terized as the lands best product-the
greatest factor in preserving the hon
ored traditions of the middle states.
+ The attractions of chief interest to-
day were the horse show, which brought
out many graceful steeds from be-
yond as well as within the states bor-
ders, and the running races. Society
was out in force for the horse show
and the attendance was estimated at
at least 10000. The Judging of the
horses took place in front of the grand
stand, affording the patrons a fine oD-
portunity- for observation. The blue
ribbon winners in each class were pa
raded after the awards had been an
nounced and were warmly applauded.
The running races were regarded by a
large majority of the spectators as dis
appointing.

Early and Later Life Of the Railroad
kins-strussle for Success.

New York, Sept. s.--F'rom early
manhood. a commanding figure in a
widening circle of Wall Street activ-
fly, it was in 1897 that Edward Henry
Hartman gained foothold by which
ne lifted himself from the numerous
company of moderately successful
financiers to place among the half
dozen financial giants OF the age. At
that time Union Pacific stock was go
ing begging and the road was the de-
spair OF many moneyed interests
whose brains and capital had failed
TO place il on paying basis. llar-
rlman.. backed by Kuhn. Loeb & Co.
and Standard Oil interests undertook
the rehabilitation OF the railroad. He
secured controlling interest, reorgan-
fzed the management and BY his tran
scendent business genius converted
the bankrupt company into one Of
the best dividend payers. In this re-
habilitation and later when he took
hold OF the Southern Pacific, Harri-
