and of the entertainments, which have
settled somewhat since they were
originally constructed and which We're
built to grade level five feet below
that of the trestle. To some extent
the consideration of these changes is
suggested by the fact that the water
in the Great Salt lake recently has
been rising. 1t is not true, as has
been reported, that the question of
raising the trestle itself is under con-
sideration.

ANOTHER CHANGE
OF RAIL PLANS
s. p. WILL NOT BUILD INTO
eUAoALAJARA, BUT TIC MAN
ZANlLLo

TUCSON, June 2.-Advices received
here today state that the Southern
Pacific company. now extending the
West Coast railroad south from Ma
zatlan with Guadalajara as an OBJ
jectiye point. has changed its plan Of
operations and VIII not build into
Guadalajara. but 20 Manzanillo on
the coast. connecting back from Man
zaaIIo to Guadalaiara via the Mexi-
can Central railroad which the Loyett
interests now control.
To grasp the situation clearly It IS
necessary to imagine a triangle two
points OF which. Mazatlan and Nan
zanllo. rest on the seaeoast The
third point, Guadalajara IS back in
the country on the Mexican Central
line which reaches Manzanillo.
Until recently it has been the in
tention of the Southern Pacific TO
cross from Mazatlan to Guadalajara
which, however. would necessitate
the crossing Of a high range Of noun
tains. with resulting heavy grades
and high operating expenses.
L is now reported that the purpose
I of the Southern Pacific company IS to
build down the coast to Manzanillo
distance of about 500 miles, and
/ thus connect with Guadalajara over
the Mexican Central. a roundabout
route, but much less expensive and
easier.
In so doing the time OF completing
the railroad construction will be ma
terially shortened, in fact about cuj
in half BY building through TO Man
zaniIlo instead Of cutting across to
Guadalajara. a district reputed to be
rich in agriculture viii be opened to
development and add another source
OF revenue to the railroad.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-That plans

one Of the conspicuous "insurgent"
republican members today.

Big politics lies behind the anti
Cannon fight, and the message 10
Hamilton Fish from Roosevelt has
served to clear the atmosphere. Mr..
Roosevelt is known to have felt be-
fore he left America that Cannon's
days Of usefulness to the republican
party were gone and had it been his
fortune to have remained as presi

that Roosevelt would have been on
the firing line leading the fight
against Cannon's reelection as
speaker
4 Murdock of Kansas has told the
story Of how a delegation of house
insurgents" called on Roosevelt
Shortly before President Taft's inau-
guration and asked him to use his
good influence with his successor In
their behalf Roosevelt promised he
would. and on Inauguration day the
man who had been president for sew
en- years whispered to one Of the in
isurgents, in the capitol:
Il felt Taft out, but he is against
you"
Back OF that lies another political
chapter which has come to the sur
face. Theodore e. Burton Of Ohio
then a member of the house. was the
real Roosevelt candidate for speaker
to supplant Cannon. it is stated on
high authority
Roosevelt tried TO have President
elect Taft join him in the plans for
Burton's accession to the speakershiD,
but Charles P. Taft, it is said, ad-
vised against giving Burton this ad-
ditional prestige. The reason for this
attitude on the part of Charles P.
Taft was disclosed when Burton who
had withdrawn from the speake-ship
contest. won out over Taft for United
States senator from the Buckeye
state.
