Frank Wightman, railroad commission
er, and Jesse Tolerton arrived in Taney

or's party ate hasty meal and started
for the game preserve. Governor Had
ley, Frank Wightman and Maj. Nc
Cam made the trip on horseback while
Mr.. Swanger, Jesse Tolerton and Hig
don Melton took the less strenuous
method of riding in hack.
At the park the party were the guests
of Maj. McCann. The Governor killed
three elk and deer and the rest of the
party got plenty of quails and squir-
rels.
Arrangements had been made for
the party to visit Forsyth on their re-
turn but the Governor injured the front
finger on his right hand Saturday. and
by Monday it had become in such a
bad shape that he feared blood poison
would set in and fastened home for
medical treatment. In conversation
over the phone yesterday Jesse Toler-
ton said that Governor Hadley said
to tell the people that he was
sorry that he did not get to Forsyth and
promised to come here any day next
spring the people wanted him. So you
can just remember that Forsyth is GO
ing to have a big day some time next
spring and that the Governor will be
here.
The Governor expressed himself as
delighted with the White river country
and that he intended to see that the
states immigration bureau pushed

TWO ROADS FINED SIS, 900;
GUILTY OF GIVING REBATES
Prosecution Of Railways Ends at Little
Rock, Ark, When Companies Ad.
nit Truth Of Charges.

Washington, June 6.-The depart
ment Of Justice was advised that the
Missouri Pacific and the St. Louis,
Iron Mountain & Southern Railway
Companies had entered plea of
guilty before Judge Trieber at Little
Rock, Ark, for making Illegal rebates
to grain merchant and were fined
$4,000.
This closes the prosecution at Lit
tie Rock. which included indictments
against these two railroads as well as
the merchant who received the rebate
and the former trafac official repre-
senting the companies who granted
It, The latter two invidivuals had
heretofore pleaded guilty and been
fined $4,000 and $500 respectively.
The attorney general stated to-day
that before consenting to the IMPOSE
ton OF the $4,000 fine against the
railroad companies he had caused to
be made careful examination Of all
the circumstances under which the re-
bate was given, and was fully con-
WINGED that the railway companies
were not morally but only technically
guilty Of any offense against the Ell
kins law. It appeared from this In
vestigation that the payments were
made by the former traffic manager
not only without the direction or
knowledge of the present superior Of
fcers Of the railway companies, but
In direct violation of express orders
given by G. 8. Clarke. the vice-presi-
dent. who. upon assuming control Of
the property In st. Louis, had given
explicit instructions that no rebates
OF any character should be given and
no preference Of any kind shown to
any shippers.
The department of Justice neverthe-
less insisted that the railroad COM
panies We're bound by the act of their
agent and must pay the penalty, but
the attorney general feels that in JUS
tice to the present management Of
these companies he ought to state
that they were not morally guilty of
any intent to violate the law.
