LOCOMOTIVE OUT

Chicago, Nov. 24.-(SpeciaD-The
biggest locomotive in the world"
nowadays has but short time to en-
joy its reputation. Last summer the
Southern Pacific company took to
California two monster freight en-
gines, each, with the tender, weighing
600 900 pounds. At that time they
were the largest and most powerful
ever constructed. Yesterday the San
ia Fe had on exhibition in Chicago
a passenger locomotive about the
same size as the Southern Pacific en-
gines and also a new freight engine
weighing 100000 pounds, including
the tender.
The Santa Fe locomotives are from
the Baldwin shops in Philadelphia,
and will be placed in service between
Needles, CAL, and Seligman, Ariz.
The passenger engine is 105 feet
long, including tender, and Is feet
6 inches high, while the freight loco
motive is 112 feet long.
The tenders have capacity of 1000
gallons of oil and 10000 gallons of
water. Each has eight pairs Of driv-
ing wheels, those of the freight en-
CINE being sixty-three inches in dia-
meter and those of the passenger
seventy-three inches high. The
freight engine has a boiler eighty
four inches in diameter and the en-
CINE alone, without tender, weighs
49,, 450 pounds.
The use of engines of this size is
admitted to be an experiment at the
present time, but the experiments
have thus far proved successful on
Southern Pacific and railroad men
express no doubt that still larger To-
comotives may yet be developed as
roadbeds are rebuilt and tracks made
stronger.

PROBE OF ELECTRICAL.
TRUST TO CONTINUE

Washington, Nov. 244.-Desptte the
reticence Of the department Of JUS
tice, it is known that the government
took up the threat Of investigation
of the electrical trust where 1t had
been temporarily dropped in the
heat Of the recent campaign.
1t was dropped by direction OF the
former attorney general, and the
former administration, in response to
the powerful political influence which
was exerted, and ing
the earlier resentment by Mr.. Roose-
welt and Mr.. Bonaparte, Of the at
tempt to stop the Investigation by the
offer of a 100000 campaign con-
tribution. The official records show
that although Mr.. Bonaparte notified
the trust probers that no influence
was to affect the inquiry. the work
was suspended for two months, COW
Iering a period from the last Of Aug
ust until after the presidential cleo
tion In November. xss j J.
This was because of the peculiar
wording of instructions given by the
attorney general to the probers. His
message was in part to this effect:
Press the Investigation in the
electrical trust without fear or favor.

tric and Westinghouse concerns, If
possible, and pay no attention to the
efforts of party leaders to divert you
from your duty.
"But If there should be any more
imperative duty requiring your i'm
mediate attention, you can attend to
it, if it does not require too long a
time, and in nowise interferes with
the result the department is after"
The investigation was suspended.
After the election Of Taft the prob
ing was resumed, being directed
against the Westinghouse, General
Electric, the American Telephone
and Telegraph company, and the
Western Electric company. With
further fears removed Of the loss to
Taft Of the electoral votes Of New
York, Connecticut, Massachusetts,
and Illinois, general political pres
sure against the investigation abated.
Those who have reviewed the case
say the government has prima facte
case against a monopoly which makes
the Standard Oil company look like
collection of amatuers. 's'>. e..
The bureau has found that thirteen
large concerns, of which the. General
Electric and the Westinghouse COM
panies are the most important, own
waterpower rights in various parts
of the country. -. 49, ~
The government has established to
its own satisfaction the great com

YOUNG MILLIONAIRE
PAID Three MILLION
DOLLARS FOR BRIDE

New York, Nov. 24.-Special-
Three million dollars is the price paid
by George H. Mulligan, Jr., son OF
George H. Mulligan, a millionaire
contractor of Chicago, for his elope-
Ness, show girl.
1t transpired today that the mil
lionaire had disenherited the young
Mulligan, who is only % years old.
The son is now obliged to drive a
Fifth Avenue automobile stage to
keep the wolf from the door.
For two days, from o'clock in the
morning until at night, Mulligan
has been driving the bus up and down
the avenue where reside many whose
holdings do not equal those of his own
father, who is reputed worth $4,000
900.
Eyes, it's pretty hard lines" said
the young man, where he and his
young wife are living. But works
work, and I guess it doesn't matter
what kind a fellow does. Father, you
know, was enraged at my marriage.
At that time l was president of the
New York Automobile company and
was making lots Of money. Father
held notes for the money with which
the cars were purchased, and when
married contrary to his wishes, he
called in the notes. I was ruined.
Father owns the company.

blame dad for his attitude. I went
contrary to his wishes However, I
do wish that we had Just one of the
many servants that father has to

new COMPANY To
TAKE over STANDARD

New York, Nov. 24.-(SpeciaD-
Belief prevailed in the financial dis
trict today that as a. result of the de-
cision of the federal circuit court
at St. Paul, dissolving the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey, the COM
bine would form new company
which would be the greatest, richest,
most powerful and best organized
corporation in the world. If the
United States supreme court sustains
the recent decision it will be neces-
sary for the trust to have ready some
organization to take over the proper
ties it now controls. Work on gen
eral plan of organization was begun
by lawyers months ago when it ap-
peared that ''Trust Buster Kellogg
was likely to win his case.
According to well Informed men
in the financial district this plan
does not contemplate the formation
of another holding company or COM
bination. What the Standard OIL in
terests have planned, it is said, is a
gigantic corporation to buy: outright
the physical property of the subsid-
larry companies. This one corpora
ton, If formed, would have a CAPT.
talization of near $350,O00,000. John
D: Archbold, testifying in the suit to
dissolve the corporation, gave figures
showing that the total capitalization
of all the companies owned and con-
trolled by the Standard was 0328,-
3O1 ,491. OF this amount nearly one
third was controlled by the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey.
The corporation, it is said, would
buy outright the properties of all SUBJ
sidiary companies. This would re-
quire the tremendous task of a:p-
praising, purchasing and taking care
Of the stockholders of the original
companies and would take months

took up the white slave" question.
Mr.. Mann is to introduce a bill on
this subject at the coming session of
congress- He believes the govern
ment can prevent this traffic through
the exercise of its power to control
interstate and foreign commerce.
Mr.. Mann believes that the govern
ment is the only authority strong
enough to cope with this evil, and
the bill which he has drafted pro-
vides heavy penalty for the entice-
ment of a woman or girl from one
place to another for immoral pur-
poses and thereby cause her to go as
a passenger over any transportation
line engaged In interstate or foreign
commerce. s.
'eThe Investigations in Chicago un-
der the direction of District Attorney
Sims and elsewhere" said Mr.. Mann
today, "Have disclosed situation
startling in its nature as to the ex-
tent of the traffic in young girls, both
within the United States and from
France and other foreign countries.
Most Of these, American girls are en-
ticed away from. their homes In the
country to large cities. The police
power exercised by the state and
municipal governments is inadequate
to prevent ALPHABETICALLY when
the girls are enticed from one state
to another or from foreign country
to the United States "ato'' ''.
1t is proposed to establish an inter-
state commerce court of five members
to consider appeals from rates as fix
mission. The president will also
recommend legislation to prevent one
interstate railroad from owning stock
in a competing line and compelling
roads thus owning stock to dispose
of their holdings within a given time
and legislation to prevent the over
issue of stocks and bonds and the
watering of stocks will be one of the
strongest recommendations Mr.. Taft
will make, the presidents PROPOSE
ton being that no stocks or bonds
shall be issued except by permission
of the interstate commerce commits
sion after an inquiry has been made
into the necessity for the issue.
President Taft believes that one of
the great detriments of the interstate
! commrce law is the delay entai1ed by
litigation over an order of the com.
| mission. In favoring an interstate
commerce commission court he is
backed by nearly every member of
his cabinet and by members OF the
commission.

GIRL Loves HER
GYPSY FRIENDS

Chicago, Nov. 24.-(Special--Lov-
ing her gypsy kidnapers better than
her parents, Amelia Johnson, 13
years old, who was found in Chicago
yesterday by her father and two un-
cles, after a two years search, they
may have to use force to take the
girl back to her home in Elizabeth.
The child was found in boarding
house with Zelacho Demetro, alias
Tom Mitchell, gypsy king, said to
have subjects in all parts Of the
United States. The girl repulsed her
fathers embrace and chung to the
skirts of her foster mother, the wife
of the gypsy chief, when detectives
tried to take her from the Demetro
home.
The girl is a typical gypsy in ap-
pearance and unusually pretty. She
has the dark, olive skin so often seen
among gypsy girls, and her hair,
which is black and glossy, hangs in
two braids over her shoulders.
Having lived with the Demetro
family so long, she has acquired their
accent of speech.
"No, no; me no want to go home
to papa John. Me want to stay with
Demetro. l have a nice time and no
work-only take care of da baby.
II no lika papa John. He stay too
long in one place. We lika to travel.

and da wagon. We go by this road

According to the story told the po-
lice by the girls father, she was TAX
en- from Elizabeth by Demetro in the
spring of 1907 to the jamestown ex-
position. Johnson, who knew Demet-
70, gave his permission with the I'M
derstanding that the child was to be
returned.

ceive the latter's congratulations. The
commander sal dthat in his opinion
the conquest of the south pole would
be easier than that of the north, be-
cause at the south pole the condi-
lions are fixed. The pole itself is
surrounded by a continent or group
OF islands cemented together by ice,
and it would be easy Tor an expedi-
ton to plant caches each year, and
thus step by step attain the pole.

her we were going to GAINESVILLE, but
she would not go. So took the
