ClFlC GIVES IDEA OF
DAMAGE.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Some idea Of
the losses sustained by the railroads
during the warfare in Mexico is given
in the report today Of the Southern
Pacific. The report says:
1T is estimated that the loss on &C
count of the interruption to traffic
from the beginning Of the Madero
revolution in 1910 to June 80, 1913,
amounted approximately six million
pesos. During this period the cost
of maintaining the property has
amounted to about 100000 pesos in
excess of the revenue collected. The
claims for loss and damage caused
by the revolutionary disturbances
amounting to $4,000 pesos have re-
Gently been approved by the Mexican
government, but have not been paid.

TRAGEDY In

KILLED INSTANTLY OFFICER
WHO WENT TO ARREST FOR
SHOOTING.

RIPLEY, Tenn, Jan. 6.-John
Graves, living at Henning, six miles
south of Ripley, shot and dangerous
ly wounded negro Saturday night.
Sunday morning warrant was issued
for his arrest and placed in the hands
Of Town Marshal Dew, who went at
once to the house Of Graves, who
shot him through the heart, killing
him instantly. He then shot him
seven times more. Ed Blackwell,
hearing the shots, walked out on the
street to see what the shooting was
about, thereupon Graves, who had
had a personal difficulty with him a
short time before, raised his Win
chester and shot him through the
left arm and lung, dangerously
wounding him.
After the shooting Graves phoned
to Sheriff Crockett that he would sur.
render to him, but no other officer.
The sheriff arrested him at once and
brought him to Ripley and placed
him in Jail. Graves, fearing mob vi
olence, requested that he be carried
to Memphis for safe keeping. He
was carried there and placed in Jail.

RICH MEN OPEN
CHAIN OF BANKS
CARNEGIE AND VINCENT ASTOR
IN CORPORATION FOR
CAUSE.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-Confirmation
of reports from Berlin that julius Ro-
senwald, of Chicago, who is investi-
eating European banking systems for
financing men of small means, would
soon establish in this country chain
of banks in an effort to aid small bor-
rowers who are unable to obtain loans
from ordinary financial institutions,
was given here last night by DR.. Ed
win l.. Gould. Mr. Rosenwald is CO
operating with Andrew Carnegie, Vim
cent Astor and others, DR.. Gould said.
1t is probable that DR.. Gould will be
head of the system of banks, the first
of which is to be established in Chi
cago with a capital Of several hun
dred thousand dollars.
The banks will make loans of small
amounts-as low as $40. An attempt
will be made for ordinary profit max
ing institutions to accomplish and to
make the interest rate only sufficient
to pay actual expenses of handling
the account. The founders aim is to
eliminate the loan office evil. No
loans will be made without evidence
that the money is to be used for le-
climate purposes. Another feature
will be the issuing of certificates in
small denominations purchasable on
small weekly or monthly payments
and bearing five per cent interest
which is a rate far above that ordina
rily allowed by savings banks. A
working man is thus encouraged to
invest his savings.

THE MOST GIGANTIC PROJECT
LAUNCHED BY FORESTRY
SERVICE.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Sale of
1000, 100000 feet of standing timber
from the Kaiba' national forest in
Northern Arizona, with authority for
the construction of 200 miles of rail-
road through one of the richest sec
|tions Of te west, was approved today
by Secretary oHuston Of the depart
ment of agriculture. Bids will be re-
ceived up to the middle of June;
then three years will be allowed for
building the railway Timber will be
cut gradually over period Of TWEEN
ty-fve years.
This project is the most gigantic
launched by the forestry sevice since
its creation.
Recognizing difficulties which lie
in the limited transportation faciii-
ties, the service decided that con-
tractors should be allowed to con-
struct a railroad connecting Colorado
and Utah with the Grand Canyon,
which heretofore has been accessi-
BILE only by the south approaches. For
several years the construction of such
a road has been considered by various
capitalists, but 1t has been said that
he lack Of assured trafic proved an
sffectual barrier. It was pointed ous
at the department today that a con-
tract for 1,OOo,00o.ooo feet OF timber
will overcome this difficulty.
