titled with Southern railways and
the government service. In 1886 he
was made a member of the banking
firm of John l.. Williams & Com
pany in Richmond, and thirteen years
later organized the Seaboard Air
Line of which he was the first presi-
dent.
He also organized the Bank of
Richmond and the Georgia and Flor
ida Railway. OF both of these enter
prises he became the first executive
head.
Mr.. williams influence was felt in
other directions also, and he was
elected director of a number OF trust
companies and banks.
The total salary of the Comptroller
of the Currency, under the new cur
rency law, amounts to $4,000 a year
The salary of the Comptroller as such
remains at $1,000 as formerly but I'M

Wants to Leave Foster and

tho sorrow that I have caused my
mother and father"
With her voice choked by sobs, De-
rI,h Bradley thus announced to-day
,,a. she had repented of her elope-
men. with Joel M. Foster, the wealthy
Tew Jersey man. She said that she
an loved Foster, but knew that she
had done wrong.
There was a pathetic scene In the
ofica of the District Attorney when
the girl met her father for the sec
and time since she ran away. Last
night she had declined to say def
nifelv whether she would return
gon1e. but this morning she threw
herself into Bradley's arms and Sob
bed:
81 have been a bad, bad girl, papa,
and YOU are just the truest, dearest
man in the world"
The father was himself almost
overcome by emotion as he stroked
his daughters hair. He said that he
would leave for home as soon as the
Federal authorities decided that the
girls testimony was not necessary.
The Government will ask for fur
Their time to try the case of white
slavery against Foster when the pre-
iiminary hearing is called Wednesday.

Tuesday morning, for wonderful Sc

The secret came IN letter from
Mrs. Hartmann just as soon as she
was able to hold pen

well, too! Well. by George! What
do you think of that
1t was rather hard to tell Just what
Hartmann did think of it. except that
he was so happy he couldn't sit still.
He sorted over a considerable vocabu-
larry, without getting any very
lengthy run of words to express his
feelings.
Mrs. Hartmann said she was in a
hospital in New orleans and was be-
ing treated royalty"

the boys will see you, and I'll stand

Whereupon Hartmann took another
walk around the cell and said by

accents After which he winked his
eyes rapidly and blew his nose re-
verberantly. Then he said, by
George!" again.
There really didn't seem to be any
thing else to do about it, just then.
Aid From College Girls.
Mrs. Hartmann said she had re-
ceived from Bob Waggoner, the de-
