Who Lovett Is.

New York, Aug. 26.-With Mr..
Harriman's permanent retirement
from the active management of his
railroads considered at least a pos
sibility, those of a prophetic turn OF
mind pick Judge Robert S. Lovett,
general counsel for the Hartman
lines, as the man to fill his shoes.
This is mere gossip at this stage, but
is nevertheless predicted.
Judge Lovett is a native of San
Jacinto. Tex, where he was born
forty-nine years ago. After entering
the legal field of railroadom in 1884,
he became general counsel for the
Southern Pacific in Texas. When
Mr.. Hartman took over this road he
picked Judge Lovett as man of abb
lily and has since advanced him
rapidly.

the Paducah Brewery companys

and the bottling trade has grown
steadily.

form to the present building.
