NUDGE WAS HERE
President of Rock Island Lines
in Topeka Today.
Accompanied by Eastern
FinancierS on a Special.
STILL HOPES FOR Topeka
Addition to General Offices
Is in 1918 Budget.
Brownsville & Texas Line Con-
sidered by C. r. 1. & p.

Standing on the observation end Of
his new all steel private car, H. U
Nudge, president of the Rock Island
Lines, swung into Topeka this morn
ing, his hands in his pockets, his coal
tapping in the brisk Kansas breeze
and his face wreathed in that always
welcome smile that greetS Kansas ano
Topeka. Seated in the warm glass en-
closed room behind him were D. G.
Reid, chairman Of the board of direc-
tors of the Rock Island Lines and part
owner of the road; John Sebastian
third vice president, and half dozen
well known eastern financiers and
stockholders of the property.
The party is en- route on an inspec-
ton tour of the lines from Chicago
through to Texas. At Topeka they
picked up a pack of hunting dogs
which will be used in a cunning ex-
petition in southern Texas. 1t is ru-
mored also that the party has no lit
tie interest in st. Louis, Brownsville &
Mexico railway running from the
Rock Island connection at Algoa, Tex,
a few miles north of Galveston to
Brownsville in the southern part of
the Lone Star state
President Nudge would have moth
ing to say of any business transactions
on this trip of the eastern directors.
Kansas Needs improvements.
President Nudge was greeted as usual
with the regulation appeal for an out
Kansas next year.
81 wish we could have all we wanted, -
was his reply. I'VE want to double
track between Topeka and Mcfarland,
with an extension later to Herington.
We want to place heavier steel on the
main lines through the state-steel like
we have in some places here in Kansas
-100-pound rails. We want to build
an addition to the Rock Island depot
and offices in Topeka-and I have no
doubt but what we will do it. L could
go on and name a hundred things we
want-but you must remember that it
costs money to carry out these desires. -
That Topeka still has hope for the
enlarged general office building, and
that President Nudge still controls his
temper when this stereotyped question
is shot at him, was evidenced by his
remarks today.
1.-THE addition to the offices here is
needed. 1t has been placed in the bud
get and will receive serious consdera-
ton. This is an important operating
grow with the business of the road"
The president stated that the labor
shortage troubles were over and that
the Rock Island now had more men
available than could be used.
That's always the case he pfilos-
ophized, when we need things we can't
get them-and when we don't need
them they come thick and fast"
According to the Rock Island head,
the car shortage also is a thing of the
past in this end of the country. Only
in the lumber districts is the road sdf-
fering for want of equipment.
The special train left Topeka after
the officers had spent a half hour here
in conference with local officials.

Material Supervisor of Santa Fee Takes
I'D New Work at AtchisOn.

Robert A. Jacobs, for the past two
wears material supervisor at the shops

his loss will be felt. M. j. Drury, su-

CHICKENS ARE SOUSED
DisgracefuI Scene i'm Chicken Yard
When Wine Is Spilled.

Mound Valley, Kan, Dec. 10.-One
hundred hens and roosters that here
tofore have spent the greater part of
their time scratching, Growing and
laying eggs, are today carrying about
with them one hundred severe head
aches. For one short evening Bac-
chus, god of wine, reigned in the poul-
try yard in which these fowls dwell,
and ever since they have been strug-
Cling with that morning-after. dark
brown taste. The ROSTERS are moping
and the hens refuse to lay.
Here is the story: A farmer living
at the outskirts of Angola a small
town near here, sought a cup of his
home made wine from his cellar a
couple of days ago. Alas, he found
the key of beverage ruined for drink
ing purposes. Straightway he carried
it to the feed lot and, smashing in the
kegs head, emptied the rich, red
drink upon the ground.
Then the chickens, chicken-like,
marched up to the scene of the raid"
And Chanticler, leader of the flock,
yielded first to temptation. Tfmidly,
almost conscience-stricken he tasted
the red water" then called reassur-
ingly to the others of his flock and
himself drank deep. A half hour later
only a damp spot in the feed lot told
the story of the emptying of the key
of wine.

Heavy Selling Orders Produce a slump
But a Rally Follows.

New York. Dec. 1O.-Orders to sell
stocks poured in on brokers today and
during the first hours of trading the

lied condition. Prices broke sharply

THE RATE HEARING.
Elaborate Case Prepared by Topeka
Traffic Bureau.

That Topeka is being Disseminated
against in respect to freight rates as
applied to bananas was claimed today
fic association at a hearing before c..
r. Marshall, examiner of the interstate
commerce commission.
The hearing in the grape case as re-
ported in Mondays issue of the State
Journal was concluded early Monday
evening. Then the banana case was
taken up, and continued until 11:30
o'clock at night S. r. Duckett, of
the local bureau. was on the stand this
morning as well as Monday evening.
H. D. Driscoll, head of the traffic
bureau, stated that the rate on ba-
nanas in carload lots from New Or
leans to Topeka is so cents while the
rate to such more northerly points as
Beatrice and Lincoln, Neb., is but Il
cents per hundred. Also from Gal
weston to Topeka is 20 cents as against
81 to the same points.
Formerly 500 carloads We're shipped
into Topeka annually, but on account
of the rates, but 400 loads are now
handled by the commission men. The
freight on a car from New Orleans to
Topeka ranges from $3.50 to S170 per
carload Thus it will be seen that the
reau asks would mean considerable in
the course of a year.
Driscoll and bucket have prepared
exhibit to prove their contention
that are elaborate in the extreme.
