Financed Into Bankruptcy.
From the New York World.


There is no mystery about the fall Of
road into the hands of receivers any more
fall of the Flint & Pere Marquette into
the hands of receivers.
Both systems serve a territory thickly
settled and rich in agricultural and man
ufacturing production. Both enjoy a dem
sity of traffic above the average for west
ern railroads which are amply solvent and
pay good dividends.
II either of these properties had been
run by railroad men for railroad ends of
public service n ownership profit, the
bankruptcy of the one would be as UNI
accountable as would have been the bank
ruptcy of the other. But both were run
by bankers for bankers profits. Both
were loaded down with bond issue after
bond issue. with. commissions on
each issue. Both have a bonded debt fac
exceeding stock ownership.
When the bankers of the Morgan group
who controlled both properties could force
no more of the inflated bond issues on the
open market, they proceeded to make a
market otherwise. When the Erie refused
they loaded 1t over on to the Baltimore &
Ohio. which sunk $23, O0O, 600 in the prop
erty within a few years. They then un-
loaded on the Baltimore & Ohio 10000
shares Of Pere Marquette, which, Presi-
dent Willard testified q month ago, has
been a dead loss"
The bankers kline both properties
Both properties nav been Morganized
into receiverships as the New haven has
been Morganized to the verge of q re-
ownership. How any more cases of the
kind are needed to effect a complete and
final divorce OF banking and railroading.

A Man Of Deeds.

Thomas was very insistent that none
OF his private letters should be pub
iished after his death and very few have
oeen. His official correspondence is
extensive; but 1t is singularly formal in
character and tells us almost nothing
o the mans soul. except that such
reserve Is in itself significant, and that
even trifling hints Of differentiation
become valuable in such a scarcity.
Thus a letter that begins Dear Sher-

trast to the usual staid formulate OF
subordinate respect.

African Railroad Development.

constructive rather than destructive

their colonies after the fashion Of

basis-this growth has been a healthy
and vigorous one. The purely strategic

in Asia 20 and 80 years age to threaten

TWO MORE MEASURES
 INITIATED BY PETITION
Statewide Prohibition Shows Up witt 5000 Names-Semi-A Annual Tax
 Payment Across

At least two new measures were initiated yesterday by the filing Of petitions bearing the required number of signatures at the office of the sec retary of state. The first of these was the petition favOring state pro- hibition, bearing 6,572 names, or more than twice the number required for the submission of the measure to the voters at the next election. Another measure that is sure of a place on the ballot in November is the one pro- viding for the semi annual payment of taxes. the petition for which bore 2269 signatures.
 As a number of petitions are being held till the last minute, the number to be submitted will not be known until midnight tonight, when the time for filing expires. There are several, however, that are confidently expected to be added to those already brought in, among them the $5,000,000 state highway proposition. State Engineer
 Lamar Cobb stated last evening that
 over 2,600 of the required 3,20O names had been secured, and that friends of
 the proposal are working hard and are
 confident of securing enough sigma lures today to bring the number up to the figure prescribed by law. Petitions of various sorts and sizes
 poured into Secretary of State Sidney |P. Osborns office by the bushel all
 day yesterday and many more are ex-
 pacted today.

NEW YORK, July Especial influ- ences were effective in keeping the stock market within a narrow, irreg- ular groove. Foreign and domestic news was an usual mixture of favor able and unfavorable happenings Ad- vices concerning cotton were highly encouraging and the government report estimates this years cotton area at substantially 37,o0O.00O acres. Several prominent railroad executives were quoted as expressing confidence in the future, but their utterance were out of tune with May earnings reported by several larger roads. The New York Central system reported a net decrease of $2,367,000. Pennsylvania lines lost over $700,000 Rock Islands operating income felT off over ss00,0O0. London sold Americans at home and disposed of several thousand shares here, main 1y United States Steel, Amalgamated Copper and Union Pacific.

LAST WORD IN WATER
 SLIDES AT PHOENIX OCEAN
Biggest of It's Kind Adds Thrills to
 Attractions at Resort

Wfliz-z-z-z, v Took at him go He can have 1t all; none of that for mine,- not for thousand dollars" Whats it all about?" That giant slide down at Riverside park. It is the latest thrill Ter at the Phoenix ocean, and for pure unadulterated sensationalism it has anything else that ever struck Phoenix, backed off the boards and miles out of sight. It is the very last work in the latest thing in hair raising contraptions and it was designed and built by Phoe- nix men for the amusement of Phoenix people.
 The new device is located at the east end of the swimming pool and it rises forty feet above the water. It is a double reverse curve chute lined with sheet brass over which water flows constantly. The sensation seeker climbs up flight of stairs and, if he does not lose his nerve, when he gets to the top he sits or lies down on a small platform with a gentle incline. One little push and he has dropped the dip' and landed, in some fashion in the big pool.
 It has been thoroughly tested and found to be all that the contractor and designer claimed and more It will be open to the public at large at five o'clock this afternoon So far only the testers have tried it.
 Another thing that will make the people sit up with cold shivers running down their spines will be the fire dive from the top of the high tower by w. $. Carson tomorrow night. Carson, who is the worlds champion high div CT, will have his bathing suit saturated in gasoline. and will dive forty-three feet. a mass of living flame, into the waters of the pool below. This was to have taken place last Sunday night but the heavy wind made it too dang erous to attempt This event will take place tonight at 9:15, immediately after the first picture show.
