lines aligned against the Hartman

TO gossip in Wall Street today.
IL Is said that the project partly re-

meriy one of the biggest financial sup
ports of the Union Pacific group. has
sold his holdings.
by series of agreements a Joint
ownership may link the Denver and
RIO Grande, the Missouri Pacific and
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy.
such a system would give the Hill
hnes line from Chicago to the coast.
through productive territory.
The great banking house OF Blair

ISSUE WARRANT
FOR FEDERAL OFFICER

r c H MOND, VA, Special
A warrant has been issued for the
storekeeper for the Broad Rock Dis
tilling Company, charging him with
fraud in passing unstamped whiskey
for that concern. An officer was de-
tailed yesterday afternoon to make
the arrest. At 2 o'clock this afternoon
he had not been heard from.
The warrant is the outcome of
statements made by Bookkeeper Ell
more OF the Broad Rock distilIery,
who. in his testimony before the
United States Court. declared that for
months whiskey had been passed out
of the distillery unstamped, and that
Burrows received SO for every barrel
so passed. 1t was estimated that the
taxes thus evaded viii amount to
$4,000 at least.
Burrows came to Richmond from
Indiana several years ago, and. after
standing the civil service examination,
went into the revenue service. He
was stationed at the Broad Rock dis
tillery to see that the Government re-
ceived the full tax on all whiskey dis
