New Orlennr the Place

New Orleans is the ideal place for the Panama exposition" said s. Kron- berg of New York, an impresario who visits every section of this country. "As between San Francisco and the Crescent City the advantages are easily in favor Of the latter when considered from the viewpoint of accessibility to the greatest number of people. New Orleans can be reached at comparatively little cost from the east and the middle west.
 Tn the next place. New Orleans can raise more money than San Francisco. The subscriptions made by the citizens of New Orleans, as well as the appropria- tion voted by the Louisiana legislature are equal to cash. As matter of course the entire south will pull for New Or leans. A great exposition there will mean much to Mobile and Birmingham"

ROCK SLAND..FRISCO
Combination BROKEN

Chicago, Feb. 12.-(Special) The
SEPARATION Of the Rock Island-Fr1sco
com bination has been made CON-
plete by the partition of the vast coal
properties which were jointly owned
by these companies. Official an
nouncement of such separation has
just been made, and it is stated that
the Consolidated Indiana Coal COM
pany, with headquarters here, has
taken over the sale of its own out
put, which previously was handled
by the Brazil Block Coal company!
The Consolidated Indiana company
is owned directly by the Rock Island
railroad, and it's enforcement from
the Brazil Block company is incident
to the recent separation Of the Chi
cago & Eastern Illinois and the St.
Louis & San Francisco roads from
the Rock Island. The coal proper
ties represented by the Frisco and
Eastern Illinois now are under the
direction Of Edwin Hawley, who has
become interested in the B. F. Yoak-
um properties.

GREAT NORTHERN ITS
own LABOR BUREAU

St. Paul, Feb. 12.-The Great
Northern Railway Co. will establish
its own employment Offices as a re-
suit Of the recent scandal caused by
dishonest agents and the so-called in
terpreters. The first office will be
started in St. Paul, and it is expected
that it will soon be followed by an
other in Duluth, although there has
been no announcement to that ef-
feet.
It was recently discovered that the
employment agents had been scalp
ing thousands of passes which they
we're supposed to give to laborers go
ing out to work for the company;
The interpreters we're found to be
charging the laborers large sums in
the aggregate by assessing each lab
orer part of his wages, without Civ
ing any return for the money. The
matter was investigated by the state
labor authorities and found to be
worse than had been imagined. With
the employment of the laborers un-
der their direct control the officers
of the company believe that they can
remedy the glaring evils shown up
by the investigation.

ments made under oath by John e.
Paxton, executor of the Swope es'
tate today. These new and import

were revealed by Mr.. Paxton only at
ter he had been threatened with conf

questions concerning these phases OF
the case asked him by Frank P.

Paxton was giving his deposition in
the slander suit for 100000 brought
against him by DR.. Hyde.
Although it was known that the
death of Chrisman Swope was being
Investigated, the Acknowledgement
of DR.. Paxton that an examination
of the contents of the stomach OF

distinct surprise.
She is a niece of the late Colonel
