Maris further charges, is not an ac-

and the travelling expenses Of dele

The governor is charged with paying
this sum to the principal detective
also Representative Maris calls at
tention to public money paid by Gov.
ernor Haskell to o. T. Smith his law
clerk in addition to the latter's regu-

was not for state purposes. but in the

PECK AND GOODYEAR
DENY The REPORT
Belief That Three Great Railroads
Would Consolidate is Due Altoseth-
er to unfounded -Rumor, According
to Reliable Information.

Investigation Of a report sent out
from New Orleans Saturday to the
effect that an early consolidation of
the Mississippi Central, the New Or
leans and Great Northern and the
New Orleans, Mobile and Chicago
railroads was being contemplated, re-
Neals the fact that there is absolute
~ nothing to the report. SO far as Of
a&dhls of the .fuilroads ms8ftionyd are
aware.
President Peck of the Mississippi
Central, has issued a statement to the
effect that there is no foundation
whatever for such rumOr while
President Goodyear, of the N. o. G. N.
states that ne knows absolutely moth
ing about the matter.
1t has been a general belief for
some time that the New Orleans, Mo
bile and Ca1lcAgo road, formerly the
NJ, ]. & X. c., intends to extend its
line northward from Middleton, Tenn.
that the New Orleans Great North
ern also expects to extend -northward
from Jackson, and that the Mississippi
Central contemplates running Its line
to the Gulf, but well-informed rail
road men doubt seriously whether
such a merger as the one mentioned
has ever been contemplated by these
railroads.
At any rate, the statements of Presi
dents Peck and Goodyear should leav'
no doubt in the minds Of anyone tina
nothing of the kind is under consid
Grafton at this time.

School and Missions" and will be IL
lustrated by various accessories.
Besides these meetings Mr.. Loper
will be of service in other ways. In
view of the program arranged, it is
very clear that the following ought
to be present: Pastors, Sunday
School superintendents, officers and
teachers, president and officers of
young peoples societies, members of
missionary societies and of mission
study classes; and all others who are
interested or ought to be.
To say that all Christians ought to
be interested in this work goes with
out saying. The "Why?" of mission
work is no longer considered. The
present day question is "How?"
The young peoples movement. with
which Mr.. Loper is connected, is one
of great combination of forces that
is Fastening the "Evangeliza
tion of the world" The LayMen's
Movement proposes to furnish the
funds; the young peoples missionary
movement is disseminating literature
and creating missionary intelligence;
while the student volunteer move
ment is enlisting lives to carry OF
the work in this line. This is {
great corporation.
Mr.. Edmund Loper was born in ia
pan. where his father has been on,
of the foremost missionaries since
1873. At the age of fifteen Mr.. Lope
came to the United States to pursue
his higher education. He prepare,
himself for missionary work in Jan
pan, but on account of the health O
his wife, he is permanently detained
Since September, 1905, Mr.. Lope
has served as field secretary Of tn
Young Peoples Missionary Movement
and is now in the position Of genera

II Is likely that a-<fhajority will favor
three districts, believing that this
number is sufficient to handle all liti-

few years.
The re-districting committee has
held several sessions during the past
week. One of the subcommittee was
in session Saturday afternoon draft
ing an outline of the re-districting bill,
which will be presented to the gen.
eral commit1ee for adoption before the
close of the week.
Aside from the geographical as
poets of the case the committee has
been handicapped to some extent by
conflicting political ambitions of the
members of the judiciary. and there
are goodly number of questions of
this character to be determined be-
fore the bill is reported.
It is stated that a majority of the
members also favor the holding OF
three circuit court terms per year in
the various counties, and it is not u
probable that the bill will also
pose three chancery terms per4
