JUST TALK IT OVER.
Representatives of Railroads Meet
Commission.


Commission.
Representatives of the railroads in
this state met again. today with the
utilities commission and It's engineer,
Mr. Witt, to consider at this time the
blanks furnished by the state upon
which the railroads are to list the
physical valuation of their property
holdings in this state under the pro-
visions of the law passed by the last
legislature. The railroad people asked
Mr.. Witt many questions regard
ing the construction he placed upon
The meeting was really a confer
ence The object was to agree upon
requirements and methods and reach
an understanding of just what the
state wanted and how it wanted the
work done. The railroads show every
disposition to help as much as possible
in the work of making the physical
valuation of their property. The
work will proceed at once in regular
routine.
The utilities commission today or
dered the Santa Fe to build and in
stall a new depot at Adams in King
man county. Whether or not this or
der was made in recognition of the
fact that the candidacy of Ironjaw
Brown of Kingman for governor
would increase the railroad traffic in
that county to such an extent that a
depot would become necessity, the
commission does not state in its or
der. But it is to be presumed that
such is the case.
The commission today ordered the
Frisco railroad to either improve and
remodel its depot at Winfield or build
a new one. The complaints from that
town are to the effect that the pres
ent depot is nothing but a shack. not
large enough to accommodate the
travelling public and especially made
quate as to its waiting rooms. The
freight apartment is also too small to
properly care for the freight that ac-
cumulates at that place.

ROME FULL OF
RELIGIOUS EXILEs
6anIshed Priests From Portugal Are
go Numerous That .ction
Is Necessary.

ROME, Jan. l2.--The recent influx
of priests expelled from Portugal is
threatening trouble for the religious
orders already established in Rome.
What makes the anti-clericals' posi-.
tion strong is that the constitution al
lows no religious institutions in the
Italian capital. The law, however, has
never been strictly enforced, and there
are at present $50 congregations
domiciled here, not counting the 36S
churches of the numerous colleges for
the education of priests.
No serious objection was raised to
this condition until the Portuguese
exiles began pouring in. Then there
was a protest and this protest called
attention to the already prevailing
situation. The anti-clericals have
compiled figures showing that one
ninth the entire population of the
Holy City is engaged in religious
work and demanding what the law
against religious establishments Is for
il not for enforcement.

Now the liberals, infuriated By the
danger that the aristocracy may con-

ginning to reply very outspokenly!
There must be no hitch this time"
is the declaration OF Reynolds News

perhaps the foremost Of the progress

Big Racket in Hardware Store When
Missile Was Touched Off at
The Rear of The
Building.
EVERY WINDOW BROKEN
People Living over the Store Were
Shocked But Escaped With
out Being at All
Injured.

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Heavy hard
ware was lifted into the air. the in
terror OF store was wrecked and the
occupants of four flats severely shak-
en- up by terrific bomb explosion
in the rear of Fred Werdell's hard
ware store, 3055 Sheffield avenue,
shortly after ten o'clock last evening.
The explosion is the fiftieth of the
labor gambling series and, in the alb
sence of any other explanation, was
credited to angry union men. The
hardware man was too excited to dis
cuss the possible cause OF the attack
saying that he was unable to guess
why he had been singled out as a
target for the bomb
The family of James keafer, oc-
cupying the first flat over the store.
was preparing to retire whcr the
bomb exploded with deafening roar.
Every window in the building was
broken and great pieces of iron hard
ware were 'urled from their places
in the rear of the store to the front

tools were found in the middle of the
street, where they had been thrown
by the force of the explosion.
1t was evident that the bomb had
been placed under heavy weight of
some sort near the door leading to
the alley.
The force of the explosion had been
expended inward. This was shown by
the fact that heavy timbers and a
section of the wall had been thrown
in by the concussion.
1t is believed that this alone saved
the occupants of the flat above. Had
the explosion taken an upward course,
with the same effect, 1t is declared
that the entire building would have
been wrecked.
A hurried search of the alley in
the darkness last night failed to re-
veal any trace OF the bomb. 1t seem

Experiments in Hospital Upon the
Patients While They Are
Asleep and Having
Visions.
DOUBLE PERSONALITIES
PsychoanaIysls, or Soul Analysis viii
be Used in the Treatment
Of All Nervous
Diseases.

BALTIMORE, Md. Jan. H.. Johns
Hopkins hospital soon will have the
first ward in the world for the treat
ment of nervous diseases under what
is known as psychoanal.,sis or soul
analysis. Patients will be experiment.
ed on during sleep in this new depart
ment of the Henry Phipps psychitric
clinic, which is being built with mon
ey from the New York millionaire.
The theory upon which the new
treatment is based is that eve-y per-
son is possessed of two personalities,
conscious and subconscious. 1t is held
that when a person is asleep the con-
scious personality is at rest End the
subconscious is predominant, hence
dreams are the natural Interpretation
of the repressed ideas of the subcon-
scious personality.
Dream analysis" is the chief
method employed in the diagnosis
which affords a guide t the proper
treatment of the disease.
Psychoanalysis will be practiced in
the Johns Hopkins hospital by DR..
Trigant Burrows, who has been study
ing his science for three years in
Europe under DR.. Freud and DR..
Jung, of Zurich, Switzerland, who are
authorities in the same line.
The treatment aims at the unifica-
tion of the personalities. knowing the
wishes and wants of the conscious
personality as derived from the con-
versation of the patient, there re-
mains to be ascertained the wishes
and wants of the subconscious person
ality.
The principle of the school is that
there turks in every dream, often dis
guised, repressed wish for fulfill
ment of the subconscious personality.
Although this phase of treatment of
nervous diseases will, in all probabil-
ity. be in the hands of DR.. Burrows,
yet it is due. in great part, to the ef-
forts of DR.. Meyer, head of the depart
ment for the treatment of neurotic
disease, that the ward will be estab-
lished. DR.. Meyer is a native of Zu-
rich, Switzerland, and the possessor
of degrees from many prominent uni
versities of Europe. He came to Johns
Hopkins last year from the New
York State Pathological Institute at
Wards Island. New York City.
