ings now are scattered throughout
the country, and have been tucked
away in tens of thousands of safes
and strong boxes.
While some of the new million
aires come from the ranks Of those
who were bargain hunters in the days
of panic, most of the new plutocrats
are from the army of spectators.
There are so many of these new mil
lionaires that it would be impossible
to list them all individually with any
degree of accuracy. Comparatively
few of the old band of millionaires
have failed to add materially to their
fortunes since the panic.
A New Cotton King.
In the commodities there are new
groups of millionaires and multi
millionaires also. Some of these
have won their wealth in wheat, 9TH
ers in corn, but most of them in cot
ton. There are more new cotton
kings and cotton princes today than
ever before. Practically all of these
are southerners, who have had an
expert knowledge of this staple.
Most of them have been cotton plant
ers themselves on large scale, and
all their lives they have been study
ing cotton, its growth and it's ever
widening markets.
Almost every day there have been
rumOrs flying about as to what Pat
ten was doing in cotton But curl
Ously enough there has been never
word said about the real bull lead
er in the cotton market, the man
who has been the biggest Spectator
in this staple, and who recently has
jumped into the multi-millionaire
class, Eugene G. Scales, of Dallas,
Tex. Scales is the most towering
bull, probably, that the cotton market
has ever known. Patten is a piker
beside him. Even the celebrated Mr..
.Sully in his palmiest days never OPP
Grated on such huge basis as Scales
has been in the last eight months
The new millionaires are little
known to the American public,
though many of them live in the
cOstliest suites in the most expen-
sive of New York's great hostelries.
Next summer, if they have no set
back, they will begin leasing or buy
ing palaces at Newport, Bar Harbor,
or other places where the socially
elect are supposed to live. Then
they will begin trying to break
I through the imaginary Enclosure with
which society" surrounds itself
There are so many of these new mil
lionaires that perhaps, like the in
cursion of new race, they will over
whelm and conquer the relatively
small group of people who have been
priding themselves on having had
their wealth for a decade or more
At any rate, the names of most of
these new millionaires probably will
be read for the first time in print
in the next years book of social reg
istry, which form the nearest APP
/ prOach to the directory of the peer
age that the plutocracy of America
knows

FACE CAR SHORTAGE.
American Railroads Have Serious Sit.
uatiOn Before Them.

American Railroads Have Serious Sit
uation Before Them.
Railroads of the country are al
ready face to face with a freight car
shortage. This fact became known
when the car efficiency commit
tee Of the American Railway AS
ISOLATION issued it's semi-monthly
bulletin regarding the car situation.
The information disclosed is that
the surplus freight cars of the en-
tire country have been practically
wiped out. Where little more than
a year ago there were nearly AGO.
600 idle freight cars standing on the
sidetracks there is now a small
shortage being experienced in sew
eral lines of traffic.
The prediction is freely made that
before the winter months set in the
country will be facing the severest
car shortage in the history of rail-
roads in this country.

ONE MAN AND THREE WOMEN
START A NEW RELIGIOUS SECT

cause this city is worldly-minded,
said Evangelist w j. Blessing.
The washing of feet is a feature of
communion, the men washing the feet
of the men and the women perform
ing a like service for each other, so
if there is only one man he has to
wash his own feet.
The holy kiss" is the form of sal
utation universally used by members.
The men kiss the men and the women
greet each other with the same holy
kiss" Men do not kiss women in
greeting.
The first thing a worldly" woman
convert is expected to do when she
joins the faith is to discard corsets
and other devices to improve figure.
The four members of the faith in
this city are Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson
Bear, Georgia Kendrick and Mrs.
Clara Allender.

AMERICANS FLOCK TO CANADA.
Seventy Thousand Have Emigrated
This Year,

Despite stories of a horde of Ca
nadians leaving their homes and
f1ocking into America to establish
new ones the statement is credited to
the deputy minister of interior at
Ottawa that the American invasion
of Canada for the present year will
reach over 10000. 1t is declared
that the settlers, first drawn from
the middle states, are now recruited
from all over the Union, and the
class of invaders is such that Canada
is highly pleased and hopes the army
will continue to grow. The Canadian
west is the object of the settlers at
tack. The number of Americans who
entered Canada in 1908 and 1909
to make new homes is said to have
exceeded even the number of per-
sons who entered Canada from Eng
land with the same object in view.

COST OF PANAMA CANAL.
GOethals Places the Total For Con-
structiOn at 1875, 100000.

structiOn at 1915, 100000.
The Panama Canal Commission
has submitted to the secretary of
war a list of estimate of appropria-
lions aggregating $4S,O63,524 for
work on the canal during the fiscal
year beginning July / 1910. Of the
amount asked for SIS, O43,0O0 is for
skilled and unskilled labor, and $780,
218,983 for material and supplies
used in construction work.
The total appropriation made by
congress up to this time on account
of the canal is $210,O7O,468. Col.
Goethals, chairman and chief engi-
neer of the commission, has declared
it to be his opinion that the great
waterway will be completed by Jan
uary /, 1915, and has estimated the
total cost at 1915, 100000, which,
however, includes the cost of santa
ton and civil government and the
100000 purchase price.
The unusually large amount asked
for the new fiscal year is probably
due to the fact that work on the
waterway has entered a more adj
stage.

DIAMONDS IN ARKANSAS.

More precious stones round i'll Amer

The official report of Douglass
Sterrett to the United States geologi-
cal survey, which has just been made
public, and which declares that more
diamonds were found in this country
than ever before, has created much
surprise in Maiden Lane Mr.. Ster-
rett finds that the diamonds pro-
duced in Arkansas are of as fine quail
ity as those from the African fields
Conditions in the Arkansas fields
are more promising than ever before.
At one point $40 diamonds were
found, of which 5v5 aggregated PIT
carats. The stones, which were cut,
proved to be worth $50 to $175 a
carat. The other states where pros
pecting is now being conducted are
California and Kentucky, and small
diamonds are said to have been found
in both.
