o. & N. e. Railroad For
$4,000.

A large number of witnesses were
subpoenaed in Hattiesburg today and
yesterday in the suit for 100000 dam
ages, brought against the N. o. & N.
r. R. R. by ]. R. Tally and e. A.
Anderson attorneys for the widow of

time ago Leslie HUMPHREYS while rid
ing on the front of an engine pulling
a passenger train on the N. o. G. N. e.
was hit by COW which the engine ran
into at point near Derby in Pearl
River county, this state.

private secretary to the Governor, will
be among the prominent witnesses
who will be placed on the stand to
give testimony for the state.
The plan of the defense, 1t is under
stood, will be to minimize Senator
3onds offense, on the theory that he
did know that he was committing a
criminal act in altering the enrolled
bill, but as the author of the measure,
believed that he had the right to cor
rect what was unquestionably an err
ror. Senator Bond has frankly con.
fessed that he made the change, and
perhaps the most damaging evidences
against him will be testimony of Sec
rotary Of State Power that the change
was made surreptitiously, and that
Senator Bond was anxious to prevent
discovery.

new YORK'S RAPID
TRANSIT SYSTEM

New York, July ia moving plat
form operating in subway, to be
constructed under a resolution adopt
ed by the Public Service Commission,
soon will be the latest departure in
New York's rapid transit system. The
platform will run under Thirty-fourth
street on the east to point midway
between Eighth and Ninth Avenues
on the west, being mainly for the
purpose of giving easy connection be-
tween the regular Broadway subway
and the Pennsylvania Railway Station.
The route as laid out calls for two
loops in addition to the line under
Thirty-fourth street. The plan for the
moving platform is for passengers to
board it at any point from a station
airy walk extending the full length OF
the tunnel. The moving part of the
platform will be in three sections, the
outer division moving slowly so that
passengers may board it without dan
ger of losing their balance. The sec
ond section will move at an increased
rate of speed, and the third or inside
section will move rapidly, being pro
vided with benches. 1t is said that OF
such platform, allowing for the tim
consumed in boarding and transfer
ing from one speed to another, tn
time consumed will be about one-thir,
of that required to cover the sam
, distance on a surface electric car.

Mr.. Howard has returned from a
ten days trip to the Mississippi coast
devoted to an inspection of harbor
and terminal facilities at the various
points. He has not expressed pref
erence for either of the points named,
and that matter will doubtless be set
tied by the board of directors.
The coast terminal, according to a
statement made by Mr.. Howard at
Biloxi, also means the extension Of
the New Orleans Great Northern
northward from Jackson to Memphis,
a distance of 416 miles. The Jackson
Memphis survey was made prior to
the death of President Goodyear, and
since that time little has been said
about the extension plans Of the New
Orleans Great Northern. Mr.. Howard
frankly admits that his company de-
sires connections with the eleven
trunk lines entering Memphis, but de-
clines to discuss further details. In
fact, 1t was his evident purpose to
keep the company's plans secret, but
his visit to the gulf coast, and confer
ences with the commercial bodies at
Biloxi, Gulfport and Pascagoula caused
the details to become public.
