The prospects for a railroad to Ce-
daredge are brighter than ever before
and 1t is more than probable that we
will see work started on a road this
summer. Reports from various
sources are very encouraging. At
least three different propositions are
presenting themselves and 1t looks as
though we ought to get one OF them.
The latest move is by the Rio Grande
which, it is claimed. will build a road
from Austin up the valley. We want
and need a railroad; when this is
built the prosperity OF the Surface
Greek valley will be wonderful.

MICHIGAN SHINES AT
NEW YORK AUTO EXHIBIT
Machines From Wolverine State Are
Shown To Large Crowd On
"Merc chants' Day."

NEW YORK. Jan. 6.-"Merchants'
Day" at the automobile show In the
Grand Central palace Kept the ex-
hibitors OF the different types of CON-
mercial motor vehicles. the larger
number OF them from Michigan. busy.
yesterday. Invitations had been Is
sued to the mercantile concerns In
this city to send representatives.
Forty-second-st., on both sides or
Fifth-ave, over which many show Wis
itors passed on their way TO the pal
ace, afforded particularly striking
demonstration of the comparative
helplessness of the horse-drawn de-
livery devices as compared with the
motor trucks and power wagons, owing
to the Icy pavements. The only way
and drivers OF the horse-drawn vehi-
cles could make any progress at all
was to keep on the trolley tracks, so
their horses could get footing on
the cobblestonss.
Men who owned concerns that re-
quire extensive delivery services, and
Others who have charge OF the deliv-
cry departments of big firms. began
putting In an appearance at the COM
mercial vehicle exhibits In the first
balcony OF the palace last evening.
and they continued to appear until
near the closing time.
The business men who visited the
show were practically united In ask
ing il the motor trucks could be op-
Grated successfully while the streets
were slippery and the statesmen at
these exhibits could easily have ar
ranged for demonstrations for three
or four times as many machines as
their firms have here for this pur'
pose.
Some OF the men who were asking
for information regarding power
driven business vehicles SAID that the
advantages Of the motor trucks were
especially noticeable at the present
time. as so many of their horses were
out of commission for a day or 80 al
n time because the drivers could not
get the horses shod for slippery
streets, without waiting for hours at
a stretch at some blacksmiths' shop.

WH0PP|MG BIG
BUDGET IN SIGHT
New Parks and Sewers Proposed.
While More Money Will Be Asked
/, for Care of Streets.

A short cut To the securing OF park
sites without consulting the board OF
estimates has been discovered by tie
aldermen. The corporation /counsels
ONCE has already been instructed 10
begin condemnation proceedings for
the acquisition OF property to widen
the Belle Isle bridge approach aud
also to acquire the Ferry property out
Grand Riyer-ave. The nrst OF these
is expected to cost somewhere about
$4,000 and the latter .$123.000.
This sum will be n direct charge on
the 1910 tax roll! The council can
order condemnation proceedings
started without consulting the boart
OF estimates. ami then the latter body
has to approve Of the cost. II a lower
tax rate than that OF 1903 Is to be had.
1, must be secured by cutting out
other items In the budget.
AS the city estimates are gradually
shaping up, they do not give assuT-
ance OF lower .axation. Parks must be
paid cor by direct taxation and not by
bond issues. Therefore, the resclu-
tion introduced this week i'm the coun-
Gil, by Aid. Trevor, calling for a bond
issue to purchase new park out
Mack-avc.. Is not legal in its present
form. II will have TO come mp later
as an estimate or In the form OF con-
demnation proceedings.
Two great new trunk sewers, one To
relieve the northwestern and the other
the northeastern section OF the city are
to he recommended by COMMISSIONS
Haarer. Ii will probably require at
Il asst $250.000 for the first years work
on these. Sewers are generally paid
for by bonds. but the city Is so close
to the bonding limit that part or
theiE cost may have to be included In
the tax levy.
There will be larger paving, resur-
facing and streeS cleaning budget than
ever before, and the policy OF the pres
ent ADMINISTRATION Is to care for the
streets first OF All. The health board
also urgently requires added facilities
at the city hospital. and the new
buildings asked COR there will cost not
less than $150.000.
Under the circumstances. the esti-
majors are inclirei to give scant at
tention TO the talk Of new Museum
of Art, new library and new police
headquarters anu municipal courts
building. These will have TO wait un-
I'll the bonding limit OF the city Is In

|hrss Men Enter Home Of Rich
Itahan Merchant. in Chicago,
Cover Wife With Revolver
and Shoot Husband.
Victim Had Received Letter De-
handing 5000 Some Time Ago,
But Ignored 1t.

CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-The boldest
black hand murder in the history OF
s Chicago was committed after daylight
today when three men entered the
home OF Benedetti Cienni. a rich ltal-
Ian merchant. and while one held up
his wife at the point OF revolver. the
other two shot Cienni 10 death as he
slept In his bed. The murderers es-
capped.
Cienni was 65 years old and for
years had been prosperous dry
goods merchant In the Italian quarter.
Early today Mrs Cienni was awaken
"a by the ringing OF the door bell OF
their house. which adjoins Cienni's
store. She went TO the front door and
was confronted by three strange Ital-
ians. They said they wanted TO buy
some gloves and stepped into the
house. As Mrs. Cienni started to
awaken her husband. one Of the men
pressed a revolver to her head and
told her he would shoot her dead II
rhe made an outcry.
n His two companions stepped quietly
into rear room where Cienni was
sleeping and closed the door. A mo-
.ment later Mrs. Cienni heard two shots
1n rapid succession. and then third
and the two men quietly emerged
from the bedroori, each carrying a
smoking revolver. The third man
5oined them and they left the house
'ot once.
. When Mrs. Clenni went to her hus-
hands bedroom she found him dead
With two bullets in his heart and one
wound through his chest. The Italians
had evidently stepped up to him rs
he slept, placed the muzzles OF tnei-
revolvers against his heart and fired.
\ Two years ago Cienni received g
black hand letter threatening him with
death unless he turned $1,000 over tn
m agent OF the society. Cienni ig-
nored the threat. During the year
following he received several other les-
ters renewing the threat He ignored
them all and the letters ceased TO
come.
The black hand experts OF the police
department stated today that Ciennfs
murder had evidently been planned "A
year ago and that today was the hrst
opportunity presented
6cores OF detectives were sent through
the italian quarter Immediately afte-
the murder in an effort TO locate the
murderers.
